You cannot vote on the day of election if you have not registered before that time. Do not put off this duty, but attend to it at once. Business on the boom. We learn from the Stanly Observer that Mr. J. W. - Crayton, of Locust Level, died on the 16th hist., aged 70 years. Mr. John Myers, accompanied by Mrs. W. T. Milton and her children, of Albemarle, have gone to Texas. The Carolina Cent ral Railroad has crossed Sandy Run, and have the track laid past Ellenboro. They will reach Puzzle Creek about Monday. The receipt of the generous contri butlon sent to Charleston from Wadesboro, was duly acknowledged by the Mayor of Charleston. The circus pictures have given a new interest in life to the young peo pleand to many old ones, too. A slight skirmish occurred in town on Saturday between two citi zens of the county, and we have no doubt both are heartily ashamed of. it now. Mr. B. D. Kendall, formerly of this town, now a resident of Shelby, arrived here Monday night in charge ofJthn Moselv, charged with the larceny of tools from the Hamilton Gold Mine. Mosely says he is inno cent, lie was released on bail, for ex amination Saturday morning before Justice Horton. Slight earth-tremblings are felt here nearly every day or ni$ht. The one felt at Charleston Monday at 5 p. m., was felt plainly here by sev eral. - Me. Jesse Smith, who lives near Cedar Creek below Lilesville, says there is considerable excitement in hw neighborhood On account of the earth cracking open near the creek, supposed to have been caused by the earthquake. Mr. Bob Carpenter, who lives a short distance from this town, had the misfortune to break one of his kgs the other day. Dr. Bennett at tended the injured man. Hon. Alf. Rowland arrived here Wednesday, and proceeded to Gul- Iedge's, where he was to speak. He is looking well, and is perfectly confi dent of a walkrover in the District. Col. Jones is of no consequence in the canvass, but 6eems to amuse the the people by his presumption. Cot. Chas. R. Jones and Oliver Mockery had a conference a few days since, and rumor has it that Col Oli ver D. will be a candidate for Con gressional honors at the last moment Better stay at home, Colonel, and at tend to your crop. Since writing the above, Col. Jones "itormsus that kn his interview with Col. Dockery, the latter told him tout he would not be a candidate. Cotton is coming in freely, and everybody seems well leased with le prices they receive for it Prices so far have ruled as high as ai Char- jeston andr Savanah. On Saturday Jast 199 bales were sold, some of it as .. Good Times Comine. The signs of good times are upon us. beveral or our merchants are busy opening their fall stock. The goods look bright, fresh and attract ive. Among those who are recei vine- their new goods, are: Messrs. Har- dirson & Allen, grocersies and staole goods; J. A. Little & Co., dry goods; etzer sc .Fharr, clothing, shoes, &c. ; Henry & Huntly. dry goods, notions ana furniture; C. M. Burnsgeneral merchandise; Bradly & Simons, gen eral merchandise; T.S Crowson.dry gocda, millinery, &c. ; McLendon & Parsons, drugs; Costner & Huntley, drugs; Shepherd, the red nag man, dry goods; C. M. Little, dry goods and groceries. In fact, business life is showing itself in every direction. Mr. Hortpn's cotton gin is now in full blast turning out the snowy staple, as is the gin of Mr. J. P. McRae. The blacksmith shops are singing out merry tunes from, early dawn till dark. Friend Saylor is too busy to talk, with crowding orders in his carriage and repair shops. The travel is rapidly increasing, which tends to brighten up the faces of the popular landlords of the Burns Hotel and Central Hotel. Torn May hasn'tmuch time to doze now in his feed and sale stabls, and J. W. Huntley is Jn the same predicament at his livery sta bles. Maj. Ingram is serving his cus- timers with more choice meats, now that fall is approaching. Cotton is coming in briskly. Farmers, as a gen eral thing have made good crops. There is talk of another railroad to this town'. The Circus is coming next week. Altogether, everything is cheering and everybody looks happy except the doctors and un dertakers, whose elongated and dole ful faces plainly show how ''distress ingly healthy" this section is. Wades boro is a lively business town, has a big trade, sells goods as cheap as they can be bought in this State or cut of it, and pays as much for cotton as they do in Charleston or Savanah. Religion a Good Thing. A defeated aspirant for legislative honors in our late convention, was heard to remark that ,4if he had had religion he would have walloped Mr. Parsons." As the unfortunate one is a worthy gentleman and good citizen generally, we hope be will come be fore the next convention prepared to win, as he now knows what is neces sary to insure his success. A little religion is a good thing. Mr. R. H. Cowan and family have arrived in Wadesboro, where they will remain till December. ",Ve are pleased to hear they are all in excel lent health. ! The fall meeting of the Mejklen- J burg Presbytery 4 met at Morven yes- j terday. Will publish the proceedings next week. Mr. Crowson has been fortunate enough to secure the seryrces of Miss I Maude Dawson, a a accomplished young lady of Baltimore, in- his millinery department. We hope Miss D s stay in Wadesboro will be both pleasant and profitable. Messrs. Fejzer, J. A. Little, and Crowson have returned from the North. Judge Ashe leaves next week for Raleigh. September has been very dry and warm. The temperature of the month has been only about one degree less than the month of August. . Very glad to see Mr. John Hardi- son on the streets after a long illness. Also, glad to see Mr. Walter Ashe out again. He expects to leave for New York City in a few days toj re sume his studies. ? There will be a babtising at the Baptist Church in this town next Sunday night. Rev. H. W. Battle, officiating. It is said a largo number will be baptised. Farmers tell us they have a better. grass crop than has been known here for many years. The horses and cows will be glad to know this. Rowland and Jones to-day! We trust there will be a full turn out of the staunch Democracy of old Anson to greetr-Col. Rowland-to-day. People are very busy and we fear there will not be a large crowd, but Anson needs not to hear from the gallant Rowland of Robeson. They know him and will give him their so'id Democratic vote. There was some ''skinning'' done at Rockingham Tuesday, but Chas. R. was the party that got "skinned." We were there and know whereof we speak. O. S. H. in the Charlotte Observer to the contrary notwith standing. But then 0. S. H. is none other than a died-m the-wool Re publican we know who he is. i Judge Bynum has declined to lead a forlorn hope. Charles R. should now follow his wise example. It is getting most time for Col. Jones to withdraw. Of course no one considers his candidacy seriously. Col. Rowland, the nominee of the nnmAPK)fi( nrt.v and Col. Jones. thn nominee of the the well, the leno star convention, will discuss the political issues to-day. We were pleased to see Col, C. -R.A Jones in our office yesterday. Mo is mighty pleasant company, bnt looks as if the can vass was .wearing on mm Our Advertisers. We bave been compelled to leave out this week several ad vert isements. It was our intention to visit every business and professional man in Wadesboro, but it was impossible to do so.

This is wide awake and enterprisine firm. who have made a very favorable im pression on all who patronize them. both on account of the excellent qual ty of their good3 and moderate pri ces at which they sell them. Mr. Ju lian A. Little, of Little's Mills, is as sociated with the firm. He will be glad to see any of his friends when they visit Charlotte. When they can not come, he will be pleased to send them promptly sampels of what they want. The Central Hotel. Col. Fredrick will soon retire from the management of the above Hotel. His host of friends will be sorry to part with him. Mr. D. L. Parker will take charge of the hotel about Jannary. Ho will refurnish it throughout, besides making other important imrovements. He says he intends to have one of the best hotels in the State, both as to the menu and the general appointments of the house. Mr. Parker is a pushing busi ness man, and never fails with any thing he undertakes. The good wishes of the entire community will go with Col. Fredrick when he leaves us. Cotton Receipts and Sales.. Wadesboro, Heptember 29 5 p. m. Cotton has been coming in freely during the past week. The boll is opening well, the weather being very favorable. The crop is fully equal to that of last year.

Mary Anderson's seven performan ces for the benefit of the Charleston sufferers will begin in Dublin Octo ber 11. Special Envoy Sedgwick, who went to Mexico to investigate the Cutting case, has returned home. He says that the original account of his con duct in the City of Mexico, published the New York l imes, and charging him with drunkeness, was false in every particular; that it had been written by some malicious scribbler, and that he was easily prepared to prove its libellous character. He sa3 s that he has made an explanation to Secretary Bayard, who is satisfied with it. Mr. Sedgwick will not talk of the points covered by his Mexican investigations. Pleuro-pneumonia is raging near Chicago, and 2,000 cattle which have been exposed to the disease have been placed under quarantine. Mr. Thomas E Benedict, New York, has filed with the Secretary ot of the Interior his official bond in the sum of $100,000 as Public Printer, and has taken charge of the office. Dr. Andres estimates that the peril from lightning is now from three to five fold greater than it was fifty years ago, owing to the vastly increased electrical intensity indcued by the charging of the atmos phere with steam and smoke at all centres ot popuhuion. Quite a stir has been created in New York social circles by the mar riage of George Gould, eldest son of Jay' Gould, to Miss Edith Kiagdon, a well known actress. The number of deaths resulting from the railroad collision near Silver Creek, N. Y., has been swelled to nineteen. Antionette Polk, (niece of the fa mous fighting bishop of Louisiana, who fell in tattle,) is at the Hoffman House in New York. .The Marquis of Bute once offered her his hand on condition that Mgr. Capel would con vert her to Catholocism. Miss Polk declined and he married Miss Arun del the great London beauty instead. Afterwards Miss Polk married the Baron de Charette, and has come to this country to make her eldest son acquainted with the land of his mother's birth. Near Marietta, Georgia, James Whitman, while digging a post hole for the Marietta and North Georgia railroad, in Tolona Valley, nnearthed. the skull of an: Indian, and also a spear. The latter,. probably, was the weapon that laid low the "red face warrior. Western Texas has been devasta ted by one of the most disastrous droughts that has ever visited that section. DIED.
