The Baptists at this place are jubilant over the fact that they have paid up the debt on their church. The amount of indebtedness paid off since 1S39 is about $450. Capt. A. F. Brevard, of Mach rselab, who by the way is one. of Lincoln's most intelligent citizen, ; spent a few days iu Lincolntou this week, the guest o!'ex-Shersff Nixon. Lincolnton's Bill authorizing the commissioners of our town to hold an election ou issuing $20,000 ki bonds has passed the Senate, and will no doubt go through the House within a few days. Col. Jno. C. Tipton, who was cue time editor of the Lincoln Press, is going to establish an evening daii ly in Raleigh at au early day. He it now editor of tha Southern Demo ttrat, at Greensboro. Evangelist Fife, by porchasiug the dwelling house of the cashier of the broken bank at FavetteviWe, hae managed to come out without losing any of his savings which he had de posited in that bank. Mr. J. Thos. McLean, Bible Ageut tor Evangelist Fife, returned home from Lexington last Moudav, aud reports a grand meeting at that place, Mr. Fife begins a meet ing at Statesville next Sunday. We received a private letter from Prof. 1 Matf.

An advertisement for the Odell Type Wi iter which is for sale by Rev. C. E.

The State Chronicle is a wide-awake paper aud is a valuable exponent of Democra cy Dr. Sumner McBee has been called to Fayettevllle to a position as railroad engineer and will bo gone for Home time. Dr. McBee is one of Lincolnton's most popular as well as intelligent citizens and his many friends regret his absence from among as. Mai. J. C. Cobb, who, with his wife, is now in Florida, sent his son, Jno. L. Cobb, a lot of fine oranges last week, some of which were the largest we have seen. Among those sent were some of the ''kid glove" variety which are very excellent and are sometimes called the "seedless." Mr. Jno. Reedy, one of Lincoln ton's most popular yonng mn, has accepted a positiou m tho drug store at. Qaffuey City, S. C, and left for that place last Friday. His many frieuds hire regret his de parture very much. The Courier's best wishes go with, him to hia new home. Mr. Reedy accepted the po sition for only about six weeks, Mr. Julian Carr, of Durham, the North Carolina philanthropist, has seut enough money to a gent leman at this place to pay the in terest on the mortgage on the prop erty of blind Tom RobinsOu. He did the same thing, last year. It is a pleasure to lecord such noble, generous deeds. It is a pity the wealth of this country were not all' in the hands of such men, Charlotte had a disastrous Are last Saturday night. The fire orig inated in the basemeut of Wilson & Co's; drug store. The entire build-, j ing was destroyed and considerable damage done to the Central Hotel building. The entire loss amounted to over $50,000, mostly covered by insurance. The building burned used to be used as the Belmont Ho tel and belonged to Mr. Eccles. We understand that the itu presion has gotten out that the bonds which are to be voted on would tax the eutire county. We do not know how such an idea could have originated, but we as sure any under that itppression that it is a mistake. The County Com missioners, however, might very properly make an appropriation to aid in establishing a system of wat er works for fire protection, as the Court house and its contents are county property and much of this, if destroyed by fire, could never be replaced by any degree of human ingenuity: ' But this will be a mat ter eutirely discretionary with the board of couuty commissioners. Our esteemed Register of Deeds is not altogether pleased with the way in which things ate going on betweeu himself aud a certain pop ular young grocery merchant of this place. The former gentleman says he is in the blank business and that he keeDs certain "ereen" blanks which he would be pleased to fill out. at the small sum of $3.00, and he thinks that as he has beeu a very taitbful oatron of the erocer, that the latter ought to return the pat rounge in some degree at least. Our svmuathies iu this particular in stauce are iucliued to go out in the direction of the Register, beeause we do uot think that this oueness ou tho part of the young merchant should any longer exist. Dr. W. L. C rouse met with a very painful accident last Monday afternoon. One of the buckets at his well had become detached and fallen into the well. Some hands had been attempting to hook the bucket from the well b? means of an open link of large chain. While they were absent from the well, Doctor happened to go to draw wa ter and, uot kuowiug the bucket was off one end of the rope, let the bucket down. Attracted by the rapid descent of the bucket, he stooped over the well to see what was the cause ; and just as he did so the end of the rope to which the link-hook was attacked came up with great force and struck himjust above the left eyeball and cut a con siderable gash, inflicting a painful wound. It was indeed a narrow escape from losing his eye, but, it is thought, his sight will not be in jured. Itch on human and Horses and all ani- mals cured in 80 minutes bv Woolfor's. Sanitary Lot ion.
