Memerab'.elDaj s-Tlie month of April

Gth, the bloody battle of Shilo h, in '62 ;
Island No. 10 Surrendered on the 7th, in

Y1 ; on the 13th, the war ended, practical
ly, and Lynchburg surrendered on the 13th
in 'Go ; on the 14th, President Lincoln was
assassinated and Andrew Johnson inangii
rated on the loth, in '05 ; all North Caro
lina forts and arsenals were occupied by
Confederates bn the lGth, in '(2 ; President
Pavis was captured on the Kith,, in '65;
Virginia .se-eded oiijthe 17th, in '01; Massa

on the 19th, jn '61 ; Gosport Navy Yard
evacuated and burned by the Federals on
the 20th, in ,61 ; Harper's Ferry burned

the unhappy j four .
tli is month, i
years occurred during
The Month of April. According to
the ancient Adbau Calendar, when the year
"consisted of iten months, April was the
first, and had thirty-six days. According
t the calendar of llomulus, it was the
scc-nd month, and had thirty days. The
twelfth montlh calendar of Nn ma gave it
t'io fourth plaice, with twenty-nine days;
but when Julius Ciesar reformed the year,
i' was given' thirty days, and has so re-
iniuned till the present time. April is the
f ww producing mouth' of showers and
81111-bhine. Hence the proverb :
April showers
Make May flowers'
a curioslty.For a day or two past
there has been on exhibition here a per-
iect curiosity. It is a voung pigeon, with
four perfectly formed legs, the two unnatu
ral ones being jus; under the wings. Un-

no doubt is expressed, the true sentiments
of most of the . best people of Charlotte.
Now as the ball is in motion it may not be
amissMfcEitsoXindairke whilst: the
iron is hot. ; It has well been; said that if
alcohol were unknown, half the sins, and
epart of the poverty, and unhappi
ness would disappear from the world, and
that it is unnecessary but detrimental to
health;' fa well shown, hot only by those
f who hare visited the Arctic jregions, ; but
also by those who live under a burning
sun. - In tlie first and second expedition in
search of Sir John Franklin, says Dr. King
and Dr. Kennedy, they refused to takeany
one accustomed to Spirits and we are told
by Dr. Carpenter, that 'the TRussian Army
on the march, use no spirits. : Now if such
cold countries exclude spirits may I not
ask what is to become of those who live
under the heat of a burning ! sun, and yet
make it;ttej&,daily and almost hourly
practice twafroltf saloon u saloon in

thinks I hear India, Bengal, ; Boroea, Af

Then, my brethren, in the good cause of
Temperance, how will you consent to elect
men high in office: to be your rulers, whose
practices, the world detests, men who have
no promise except for a short life, and a
diseased body. So be wise, and choose
sober and temperate men, and don't hunt
for the rich, but choose poor business men,
who know what it is to be ovei -burdened
with taxation (as we are now) who earn
their daily bread, and whose judgment is
good.

Bilious, Remittent and Intermittent
Fevers
Which prevail in the valleys of rivers.
and other miasmatic districts through the
Summer and Autumn are invariably ac
companied by derangements of the Stom
ach and Liver, and other abdominal vis
cera. There is always a weakness and ir
ritable state of the stomach, and torpor
of the bowels. Dr. Tutt's Liver Pills are
peculiarly adapted to such cases.
Collapse of the Nerves.
There is nothing more disheartening
than nervous .debility. In extreme cases
of this class the sufferers do not care whe
ther thev live or die. A feeling of hope
lessness conies over them, and in some in
stances where the threatening symptoms
are not met by prompt and proper treat
ment, lunacy or idiocy ensues. let ner
vous debility is not a dangerous complaint
it wisely dealt with. A medicated stimu
lant is the remedy heeded, and in Hostet
ter's Stomach Bitters this specific for the
complaint is presented in its purest and
most potent form. Nervous disease is usu
ally complicated with other ailments. . It
frequently involves biliousness, constipa
tion, irregularities of the bowels, indiges
tion, and great mental depression, In the
spring or tne year, owing to tne enect or
chilling'fogs. searching winds and other
unhealthy atmospheric phenomena, upon
th external nerves, persons who are sub
ject to nervous affections often suffer acute
distress, potu of body and mind, trom this
cause, ii It is, therefore, advisable for all
who are liable to these troubles, and to
the other bbdily ills above " mentioned,
which so freouentlv accomian V them, to
commence the regular use' of Hostetter's
Bitters early in ' the season. The severe
nervous and bilious attacks, with which
they might otherwise be visited, can by
this means be certainly avoided. As a ner
vine, gentle aperient and anti-bilious medi
cine, the Bitters have no equal.

CAED
1873. FOR SPRING. 1873.
TO MERCHANTS.
THE great aim of our House, since its
establishment, has been to make Char-
otte a wholesale Mart, and ours THE
HOUSE, and to conduct our business so as
to outgrow the alleged and even accepted
opinion of some that there is a kind of
obloquy attached to them for buying in
Charlotte ; and having, by the very great
increase of our business, (since we remov
ed to our new and elegant Store,) been
convinced that we have partially succeeded
in our cherished plan, we have concluded
to endeavor to still further eradicate the
erroneous idea,' by presenting, this coming
season to the Trade, a still Larger and
better assorted Stock than even we ever
offered before, so that Country Merchants
will be able to hnd in our house not only
all he needs but a very large stock to select
from : thereby being enabled to operate
with a much smaller capital than he can
by buj'ing in different houses North, where
he must necessarily buy more goods than
he actually needs in order to have an as
sortment. "
In view of the foreeoin Mr. Rintels
left on the 27th January, (much earlier
than usual,) "for Northern Markets and
Manufacturing places, where he will re
main two months in making our purchases.
buying everything from first hands on the
same terms as any Jobbing House in Bal
timore, Philadelphia or New York ; and
the assortment when thus completed will
foot up in amount to upwards of Two
Hundred Thousand Dollars.
The expenses attached to carrying on a
business here being much less than it
would be in Northern Cities- and having a
lower rate of freight than smaller shi ppers
here, brings the fact patent that, we are in
a position to successfully compete with
any Jobbing House in the United States,
and to the inspection of which we invite
the Trade.
We are pleased to state to those unac
quainted with our House, that we keep
complete lines' of Dry Goods, Groceries,
Hardware, Clothing, Boots and Shoes,
Notions, and even Millinery.
Our Retail Department is complete, with
the latest Novelties, and in bulk second to
none in the Citv.
Our Millinery Department Will be earned
