Our city this morring was thrown into excitement by the announce ment that Mr. David B. Avera, a former well known butiness man of . this city, but latterly a resident of Johnston county, near Smithfield, J bad committed suicide by cutting his throat. I It seems that during yesterday, Mr. Avera, who had been here for several days on business, was noticed to be in rather a dazed condition and talked at random. Early this morning about 2, or 3 o'clock he made application at the guard house fcr admission, alleg og that some person or persons were attempting to do him bodily harm. Seeing his condition he was taken down stairs and placed on a lounge. . It was deemed necessary to procure 1 medical attendance and Dr. James McKee, was sent fcr. He came as promptly as possible, and, after see ing the condition of Mr. Avera had him at once removed to a room at the Yarboro House. This as we hear was about 6 o'clock. Dr. McKee remain ed in the room awhile giving instruc tions concerning- the uureing of his patient. He had occasion to step j list outside of the door for a moment, when suddenly Mr. Avera, seized a pocket knife he bad in his posession and cut his throat, severing the jug ular vin Hj expired almost imme diately. These are the facts ao far as we have been able to gather them Mr. Avera married a daughter of the late Governor Fowl who sur vives him He was a gentleman pos pessed of considerable property and in the nocial walks of life was a man of genial qualities. We are not ex actly informed as to his age, but learn from some of his friends that he was between 40 and 45 years old. Mr. Jno. W. Brown has charge of the burial arrangements, but we are not informed up to this writing, as to when or where the funeral will take place. The Restored Flag. Yesterday was a big day in Cedar Fork township, the occasion being the return of the war flag of Co. I, 6th N. C. Regiment, to its original command by Ool. Higgius, of Ohio, who has had it since 1862. There were about 8,000 persons present, including many ladies. The flag was tendered by Col. Higgins in a neat address. Maj York gave a fine sketch of the com pany from its organization to the sur render. After the ceremonies the flag was received by Maj. E. G. Har rell, in the absence of the Governor, to be placed in the State Library. Maj. Harrell's address was most touching and beautiful. The Dur ham band was present and discussed some excellent music and some pa thetio songs were rendered. Board ot Aldermen. The regular monthly metticg of the Board of Aldermen took place last night and transacted the usual routine business. It was decided to purchase a four circuit repeater for the fire alarm s j stem.' Col Heck as chief marshall of the centennial cele bration made, application for the use of the seal of the city upon the com- misssions granted to the assistant marshals, which was granted. The matter of the proper decoration of the public buildings of the city was discussed, and a committee was ap pointed to confer with the decorat ing committee of the centennial as to the amount necessary for the pur pose.

I have just been totha North State Music store and seen the new pedal extension for the organ. Why, my little Mary, only five years old, sur prised me.
