There le sot now and never has been
ito slightest probability of a financial
rwh here. The only Intimation there
' ever hae been of such thing wm given
byessosatJonal story in the Newt of
theTta last, It waa not substantiated
hy facta, and existed only in the mind
of the writer. In addition to
' this the eoeoant which appeared
la the Mew waa telegraphed to the
State Ohroaicle vsrbatira et liter at ia
Bade? the flaming caption of "A Oreat
Jlnaaoial Oraah In Cnarlotte's Munici

wm given much more publicity than it
I could, ever have gotten through
the medium of the Hews.
Thie aland ar baa eanaed the great stir
here and elsewhere, and Tna GiiaoM
cim baa been ia no way connected with
ite circulation.
We we reapenalMe for every word
we have atterod on thie or any other
subject, but we object to having lucb a
scerrilous piece of business laid to oar
charge, either directly or by Implica
tion, and while we regret the neoeaeity,
we feel c impelled to characterize
the action of the Vsws aa a cowardly
attempt to ablft the reaponaibility of
it own sianasrous statement to an
Innocent party. We have filer of the
paper to corroborate our statement
aad wa are prepared to substantiate
every word urtercd.

"But who kaow where tbe grave of
Dr. Ephrlam Brevard le and whether or
not it le marked with m maeh m a
simpl stone ? Where Ilea the duet of
Dr. Alexander, the writer of the
famous Instrasaenti"'
Mr. Alexander drew op the Dtciar
atioa and Dr. Brevard drew the
Resolutions. Bat shaU the men of
Mecklenburg of 1776 have no naemerial
worthy of thcta? It ia a reproach to
North Carolina that it hae not been
dona before thkv Willmingtcn Me-eenger.
One of the meet intelligent and prom
inent men of Charlotte told The Ciiitoir
IOLB since the Ohio letter u received'
that there waa no Mecklenburg Declar
ation, lie ay that he can prove that
it le a myth.
Be he two good reaeone: First the
alleged Declaration waa the work of a
few men of education and prudence.
No email body of men would dare make
each a declaration in the face of King
George. The resolution are genuine
and oreditable and they ahow that the
people were taking steps to p'Otrct
tbemselres In local matten, but do not
how that there wai any Declaration.
The similarity between tbe alleged
Declaration and the instrument of Mr.
Jefferson a year later condemn it
genuineness. Borne fellow got hold if
Mr. Jefferson' and wrote tbe Mecklen
burg Declaration from it. Tbi gentle
man will elaborate on these reasons for
no Declaration, if occasion demand.
We have not apace to follow the subject

dent Most of the other expiring offi
cer were also reelected. It wm intend
ed continuing the sees ion today, but,
in consideration ef the present busy
season with the farmers a resolution
was offered postponing tbe meeting two
weeks. Tbe n.-ssion will complete it
work on Saturday the 25 tb of this
month. In the mean ti ne tbe matter
of a busineas agency will receive panic
ular attention, in order to accomplish
tbe greatest good.
The farmer are very much interested
in their woi k. The spirit of resentment
reported in some secJon doe not show
iuelf bore. Very little is being sad
of tbe third party or sub-treasury. In
dications are that tbey will not be sup

people here, notwftwetandiog it la
thought a big effort wili be made to
push tbe matter during tbe fall and

elements of greatness if we only take
hold of such enterprise M will utilUe

The Elliott Furniture factory is a
credit to our city and pays out more for
labor than poMibly either of the great
ootton mills.
Wilkes & Liddell's machine shops,
the Oil and and Fertiliser fac
tory, and Carson Bros, snoke and
handle factory are doing more,
to build up Charlotte than all the blow
and bluster we can put into print. The
granite workers are also bringing into
our city a class or labor tost receives
good wages. The Charlotte Sash, I.'r.or
and Hllnd factory and thegDlghani mills
recently started should bo encouraged
by liberal stock subscriptions snd other
enterprises of a similar character should
be started. We should have a soap fan

wooden goods ran be made here an
cheaply as any placo in tbe world, and
whil we are talking about the various

want tbe R jauoke and Southern liail
road or an electric or other line to con

A Startling Discovery
hi often made by a man as to his physi
cal condition, when suddenly some
disease that is lurking in his system
shows itself and prostrates him upon a
bed of sioknee. This is particularly
the case with malarial poison, which
often lies dormant until a sudden
change of climate forcea it to the sur
face. If, therefore, you contemplate a
