THE VIENNA EXPOSITION.
We publish to-day an interesting
communication regarding the Em
peror of Austria, Francis Joseph I.
Special attention will be directed to
his empire this year on account of
the grand International Exhibition
which is to be held at Vienna, the
Capital of Austria, in May. It opens
in May and will continue many
days. .. . -'-iJ-;-
It is tov be the largest, most com
prehensive and most magnificent
World's Fair ever held. . The arts
and industries of every country the
sun shines upon, will be - exhibited.
The wealth of Nature, and theingen
uity of Man, will be represented by
the best specimens which can be
had, from all quarters of the globe;
from the East and from the West,
from the North and South ; from the
tropical climes and from the arctic
regions ; from continents and from
islands; from land and sea, and. from j
everywhere. Specimens of every art
and industry inthe world will be
exhibited; every branch of learning,
and every department of human acN
tivity, will be fully represented.
In to-morrow's issue we will pub
lish a circular letter from the U. S.
Commissioner to the International
Exposition, in which the whole sub
ject is fully-explained.
The importance of this Exhibition
of the arts and industries of the
world to our. people, is great. It
would be of inestimable value to
North Carolina if her mineral wealth
and splendid advantages of soil and
climate could be well known in for
eign countries. It would attract the
attention of the world to our won
derful resources ; the rich marl beds
of the eastern portion of the State,
the coal-fields of the middle section;
jthe gold, silver, copper arid iron ore
jof the west. Were acknowledge of
'the vast treasures locked up in the
bosom of our Mountains unfolded to
the world and they made acquainted
with the fertile valleys of western
North Carolina, this "Switzerland of
America" would soon teem with
population, which is all that is nec
essary to make this a great and
prosperous country.
Every effort we think then should
be made to have the agricultural
and mineral wealth of North Caroli-
I na fairly and fully represented at
Vienna.
A letter to us, from Hon. Sion H:
Rogers, upon this subjeet, concludes
with these words, which we com
mend tq the consideration of all
citizens who teel an interest in the-
welfare and prosperity of North
Carolina :
"It occurs to me that every effort
should be made to have, especially
the minerals of North Carolina fairly
represented. Our State seems to be
so slow to get I before the world : her
real and undeveloped wealth that I
feel at times greatly discouraged. The
young .men of the State, "especially
those connected with the press must
be active in this ' matter. , I will,.
wnen i go nomeor the holidays en
deavor to stir up our Raleigh friends.
No true son of North Carolina can
be engaged in a more praiseworthy
c?r patriotic engagement than bring
ing in a fair and true light to public
view the undeveloped resources of
VU4 guvu U1U uiaic.
Murder by Brittle Car Wheels.

I his is -t he gist of the Verdict. Pro
bably the most important evidence
bearing on the case is that of Flynn,

''prefer to ride-after a better wheel'
Furthermore, he was of the opinion
that such wheels are more brittle in
cold weather than aj any other time

A Fearful Explosion.
From the San Francisco Enquirer, De
cember 23rd.
On Saturday afternoon, just before
our forms went to press, a terrific
explosion startled the dwellers in the
southwestern part of the city,- caus-
mg iears mat some great acciuem
had happened. It was not the shock
of an earthquake, but tne dull tnua
and subsequent fjuiyer which ac
companies the firing of heavy ord
nance, uur reporter soon ascertain
ed that an explosion had takeruplace
at the Hercules Powder W orks loca
ted on the Central road, one mile
west of .the Golden Gate Park. It
appears that on Friday afternoon the
workmen, who, fortunately, are
nrinciDallv Chinamen. Dut about 300
pounds of nitro-glycerine into one of
the large tanks preparatory to its be
ing used in the manufacture of the
oowder. Friday nieht. it will be re
collected, was excessively cojd, and
as a consequence, the glycerine froze
up hard. The Chinamen, who were
in a hurry, to work it all off by Sat
urday evening, did not handle it
with proper caution. It is even said
that one of them ran a crowbar in
the rat. 'and that this was the
cause of the explosion,- The build-
niff, a large one-story .frame, was
torn to atoms, two Chinamen . killed
instantly, and two others were bad
ly . injured. A young mau named
Cook, about eighteen years of age,
was some - distance away from the
explosion when it occurred, hasten-
ea to tne place to urn on some oi
the acids that were running, and
was seriously burned on both legs.
or a mile around the hills. The
body of on Chinaman was hurled
six nundrea leet irom wnere tne
tiouse stood; and torn to pieces, only
a piece of one lee, part of his skull
and small pieces of the body being
picked up in different places. An
other dead Chinaman was found
about sixty feet off, with a cut be-
nnd his ear and on bis back, iwo
Chinamen injured were found alive
a short distance off. A liquor saloon
m the vicinitv sustained considera
ble damage, the bottles and glasses
on the counter being thrown to the
floor. The powder magazine, con
taining 10,000 pounds of powder,
about an eighth of a mile from the
works. escaDed damasred. The three
other buildings belonging to the
company, which were wisely separa-
ed from each other at considerable
distance, were but 'slightly damaged.
t is said that the loss will be several
thousand dollars. In the month of
une last another ex plosion occurred
at the works, which, though not so
atal in its consequences, was per
haps of greater damage , to the prop
erty than the last. The coroner will
hold ah inquest to-night in the ease
of the Chinamen, who were blown
into eternity.
Forecast of Radical Changes in the
Cabinet.
The President has Dositivelv desig
nated Mr. William M. Evarts as Mr.
Fish's successor. Mr. Evarts is now
negotiating for Ihe purchase of a
large nouse in tnis city, wnere ne
intends to entertain after Mr. Fislrs
arge and generous manner. About
a week aga the President pressed our
Premier to reconsider his determi
nation to leave the Cabinet on March
4, telling him that the country could
nolSdispense with the services of so
good a statesman, who had contrib
uted more than any other person to
the peaceful and honorable settle
ment of our differences with foreign
Powers and had represented the
State Department with so much dig
nity to himself and to the country.
Mr. Fish replied that but for his af-
ection for the President he would
have left the Cabinet long ago, but
le could not remain alter March 4 :
his duties to his home and to his
amily required his presence in New
York. Now that he had seen out
the settlement of the Treaty of
Washington his task was fulfilled,
and he thought he had well earned
the right to retire from public life.
At the same time he suggested that
Mr. Evarts would in everv wav make
a good Secretary of State. Seeing
that nothing could change Mr. Jbisb s
resolve, the President had a conver
sation with Mr. Evarts when the
latter was last in Washington on the
subject of the Secretaryship. After
ex Dressing his appreciations of Mr,
Everts' services in the (ieneva con
ference the President remarked that
he knew of no one better fitted to
succeed Mr. Fish. Mr. Evarts did
not decline. Since then the Presi
dent has confidentially informed
him that he would be appointed
Secretary of State on March 4, and
Mr. Evarts is now making prepara
tions to fill his new dignity, so as to
t . - n u:r.v.
leave no repining uuer jh.c. jkx;?ij a
hosnitalitv.
Secretary lioutwell declares tnat
he will resign whenever Wilson an
nounces hia departure trom the ben
ate, and there -are whispers of other
complications about the politics of
the Southern States, &c, Which may
lead to a general breaking up in the
Cabinet. Washington Correspondmce

we learn from the Advance.
The Salisbury Watchman urges that
application be made to "the General
Assembly for the ' etablisment of a
special court for that town. As the
law now stands ordinary municipal
governments are powerless, the May
ors have no power unless they hap
pen to be magistrates, and even then
merely as township magistrates.
The Statesville Intelligencer says:
On Thursday last, a little son of the
foreman, of this office, while hunting
for some chickens, in the barn of a
neighbor, came in contact with a vi
cious sow, and she went for him. He
was badly bitten,, but his wounds,
though painful, have been pronounc
ed by the physicians not of a serious
character. The little fellow .says he
is "done, fighting with hogs."

beth City now contains a population

Then we were without a paper, with
out a bank, without a good school or
bote! m short everything looked
blue and everybody was dispirited,
discouraged and disheartened. To
day we have a thriving newspaper,
two banks, tbe largest and best hotel
in the State and four good schools,
in addition to quite as many of the
appliances and surroundings of com
fort and progress as could be expect
ed. This is but the beginning. There
is now a more hopeful feeling among
the people here a genial and heal
thy popular sentiment and a liberal
spirit manifested by all far beyond
what has yet existed. All this is en
couraging is auspicious for the fu
ture.
A Pastor's Reward. That I good.
faithful pastoral work is appreciated
in the State of Ohio, as illustrated by
the following incident that occurred
in Iron ton. A revival preacher, who
had won fame by his power in the
pulpit, came to Iron ton for a week's
work He was very zealous, preach
ed every (night, excited considerable
interest, and was vehement in his
exhortations to the unrenewed gor-
tion ot the congregation to come for
ward. On the la t evening his labors,
he outdid himself, but not a person
rose to come forward. Discouraged,
he sat down ; whereupon a grave fac
ed, anxious-looking man got up, and
said that the elder had been working
hard and laboring faithfully among
them, and, as a token of their appre
ciation, he moved that the congrega
tion give him three cheers ! It was
done right heartily, and that con
trite congregation went quietly out
and silently home, satisfied that they
had fully and faithfully perlormed
their duty.
Danville, Va., and Fayettevllle,
N. C The Hillsboro Recorder men
tions a proposition for a railroad
from Danville to Fayetteville, nar
row gu age, via Leasburg, Tea xudge,
Prospect Hill, Hillsboro "and Pitts
boro. The proposition originated in
the Danville Register;, The counties
of Caswell, :Person, Orange and
Chatham would be much benefitted
by such a road. The scheme seems
to have something real in it, being
favored by the Baltimore and Ohio
interest, and the proposed road be
ing an extension of the road now
reaching completion between Lynch
borg and Danville. The movements
of the Pennsylvania . Central are
closely watched by the Baltimore

and carrying consternation to the
wealthy," Her bank had enjoyed the
highest popularity and public confi
dence. Judicious advertising and
carefully bestowed presents and pe
curiiary'favors had contributed to its
success. After the failure it was dis
covered that its enormous dividends
to depositors in the way of interest
had been m ade from the capital

Too Much for His UTerves -An Iaci-

Donovan ghost was discussed at

be free altogether from that dread of
the mysterious unknown! which de

yards after nightfall, or sitting alone
with the. dead. He declared that he
would even be willing tpfhaye a tete-a-tete

tor who might choose to Imake him
a call in the still hours oft night. Af
ter a couple of hours-spent pleasant
ly at the Chfi, the horses' beads were
turned homeward. Ihe road was
deserted. theDleasure-seekers had all
returned, and as they bowled along
the smooth road, still they convers
ed on the supernatural.; - When a
short distance beyond' the toll-gate,
the horses stopped suddenly and be
gan to tremble and short violently
The driver stood up in the wagon to
find the cause, and lo I a cothn lay

into the bottom of the wagon as if

restore the presence of mind which
had tied from her crouching com
