LOCAL AFFAIRS. P. CALDWELL, Local Editor. , PARK, Business Manager. - Wednesday, October 29. 1873 LOCAL DOTS. Cotton is merely nominal in price now, aIJJ best jgradea sold yesterday at 12i 13. ee tbe advertisement of the Fair f the Carolina, and of TL Vail, "wanted." The Hickory Fair begins to-day. Sev eral of our citizens will go. Yesterday was cool and overcoats were comfortable even in the middle of , the day. Mosquitoes are quite feeble, and can now be run down and caJght wlth'comparatjve ease. We again call the attention of the au thorities to the last driving which is in dulged in by draymen and others. The Charlotte Dramatic Association has engaged Miller's Hall for four nights du ring Fair week. A communication from Dr C J Fox, re lative to the ice machine, is on hand but is necessaiily deferred until to-morrow, when it shall appear. We learn nothing new about the coun terfeiting operations, or about the arrest of any more persons. So far only oue arrest has been made in Charlotte. Part of the lettering on the door of Cochrane's Saloon has been defaced and the sign now is very suggestive. Change it to anything else ; no matter what ; but change it ! MM Thanks. We acknowledge with thanks an invitation from the managers to a Cor onation Cot i lion Party at Hickory Tavern on to-morrow evening the 30th.. We shall be there in spirit if not in flesh. The streets yesterday evening looked like winter. They had been swept clean by the fierce wi . ! of the day. Few persons were to l. a. on the streets, and those who were oik were attired in full winter dress- Personal. Mr J D Uzzel, one of the proprietors of the Raleigh News, was at the Central Hotel yesterday. He is on his way to the Hot Springs of Arkansas, where he goes with the hope of improving his health. Col J O Hudnutt of Greenville, and Col L D Childs of Columbia, are also registered at the Central. Tbe Proceedings of tbe Board of Aldermen as published this morning, will prove of unusual interest to tax-payers. It has been decided, as will be seen by ref erence to the proceedings, that the Board has ordered that an election shall be held at some future time upon the question of whether or not the city shall issne a given number of bonds. Upon this question the Observer shall in future have some thing to say. Circuses The unregenerate will be glad-to learn that the Great Eastern Circus will probably be around again before the circus season closes. It is also currently reported that old John Robinson will be along sometime this Fall or Winter. About the truth of the statement as to old John we know nothing, but have the authority of Mr B H Herman, tbe press agent of the Great Eastern, for saying that they will in au prooaomtv visit Charlotte again in a short time. Gone to Portsmouth Rev. J. M. Rose, who has for the past five months been pas tor of the Presbyterian Mission Church in this city, has accepted a call to take charge of the Presbyterian church of Portsmouth, Va., and having resigned his charge here. has gone to Portsmouth co take charge of the church there. Mr. Rose is a young minister of fine promise. Possessed of fine natural talent, and having had the bene fit of an education at some of the highest institutions in the country, it would be singular if he had shown himself inferior to what he is. As a man and as a minister, Mr. Rose has shown himself, while in Charlotte, all that he should be. The Presbyterian, peor pie of Portsmouth, haye been fortunate in inducing him to come to them. We, and toe people of Charlotte, wish him success hisholy calling, and hope that the fcay make as many friends in Portsmouth w he ha during his short stay in Char lotte. The Bible Cause. We had a pleasant C&U yesterday afternoon from Rev. P- A. tT0H the agent of the American Bible Society for North Carolina. Mr Strobel jjjust rfeturning from an extended tour fugh the mountains, where he has been Coring for some time past, and where he 'ePort8 the Bible cause spreading and nourishing. He tells us that his collec tor the month past exceeded by over ,ur ine same month last year. a """ ne has been, are making to the importance of the work. sina ar Shoring in its behalf. Mr. Strobel, "ce he began the work in which he is 8tT 6ngaged' has been entirely over the last a CVery county( once, and since eiiPnl haa vbited and lectured fc fifty. -'v.ouatieS.

J. C. Mills. The following officers were elected for the ensuing year : -PtestiSenVJ H Wilson, Jr.; Secretary and Treasurer W P Myers; Executive Committee W R Bur well and Jas H Orr. It was decided that the Club give two hops daring the week of the Fair; The members ef the Club are , requested to meet at the rooms of Capt. Mills on Saturday evening ;iie jtj at 7fr o'clock. Operations on the Eeet.-rDr. De- Boit, the Surgeon Chiropodist, from Philadelphia, whose skilled hands have relieved so many af our citizens, of those horrible "toe tornientbrs." f corns, bunions, ingrowing nails, &c., tells us that, in consequence of the great demand for his professional, services, he has been obliged to post pone his departure 4tU Thursday,. October, 30. We advise all who suf fer from corns, fcc, not to lose this chance. The Doctor is at the Char lotte Hotel, where orders may be left for him. Ludwig's Lager Beer Saloon is the: most popular resort in. town at night. It is always crowded, but the crowds are always sober and orderly, as no spirituous liquors are sold in the place. Those who like good fresh beer can always get it here, and need not be afraid of meeting .a drunken and rowdy crowd: The lunches, which the presiding genius dispenses, are not the least of the attractions of the place, and can be appreciated by those who, like news paper men, are required to be up late at night,. or rather until early in the morning. Another Editor Married The mar riage epidemic wmcn is sweeping over the country in connection with the panic and the yellow fever, has not spared the editorial fraternity: It seized last week upon Wolfe, of the Monroe Enquirer, and he suc cumbed to the press-ure of circum? stances, having been united iri mar riage to Miss Virginia, daughter of Dr. J. F. Lee. We congratulate our young friend upon Ttbis take, but hope that he may nbt feel unduly set up -and above those of the quill driving crew who are not yet locked up in matrimony. Avery, of the Press, is now almost "ready to be offered up," having made, as we learn, all the necessary arrangements by which he will ex change himself for a woman in Chi cago, who has plenty of money and no legs. A Suggestion. We suggest to our County Commissioners the propriety of establishing a work house for the county There arehijmeTous persons of both col ors wbo'lounge almost continually around the street corners, having no visible means of support, and who are an incubus upon the community 'If we had a 'work house this labor could be utilized, and 'the- work which they will not do for themselves could be forced out of them for the benefit of the county. To indict these .persons now as vagrants, is folly ; for it is piaying just into their hands to take them up and feed them at the expense of other people. To such characters imprisonment is little of no punishment. "The bird that can sing and won't sing should be made to sing ;" and those who can but won't work should be made to work. They owe the world for a living and should be forced to pav the debt. A work house is the medium through which this can be effected, and we respectfully suggest to our worthy Commissioners a careful consideration of this question. Silver Spray Oil is the best for Sewing Machines. - - ' - . -oct 29 Tw Terrible Condition of Memphis. St. Louis, Oct. 25. The citizens of Mem6Hi$ refuging here held a meeting last -night, and iourteen committees were, appointed ... , to solicit aid. The" Appeal for aid says: Memphis is almost depopulat ed. out of 65.000 inhabitants, only about 10,000 remain.'; Of these, more than one thousand are now sick, two thousand newlyr1 intade rwfdbws and orphans are dependant on" chari ty, - even thougn the scourge were to cease at-onee., These helpless people must be as sisted during the conung winter.
