mere arc no prisoners now in our jail
from this county. Its inmates are one U. 8.
prisoner and the two condemned men from
Johnston county. Lee Dunlap, who ought
to have had his ueck broken long ago, is
the United States prisoner and Blalock and
Collins are the condemned men from John
ston county. The two latter are to be hung,
we believe, on the 22nd of next month. Lee
Dunlap, col, perpetrated a cold-blooded mur
der on a white man in Charlotte some three
or four years ago and has thus far escaped a
richly merited gibbet through the instrur.
mentality of government officials."

Drinking Warm Blood.A citizen of
this county, Hying in Providence neighbor
hood, told us an interesting story a day or
two ago. He said that two years since, he
weighed 22G pounds, and believed that he
was the strongest man in the county, until
he became unwell and began to lose flesh.
His ill health continued until last Summer,
when he weighed only 100 pounds.5 . The
physicians told him that he had consump
tion and that they could do nothing to save
his life. The man, however, did not des
pair, but from the time that he was reduced
to 100 pounds began drinking the blood of
goats and lambs, just after the animals were
slain, and while the blood was yet warm.
In addition to this he ate mutton suet, and
lived almost entirely on the blood and suet,
It was but a short time until he begaa to
fepl the beneficial effects of his medical
course. ITis strength began to return and
with it his flesh'.. He grew more vigoron3
with each day, ami now, though not entire
ly well, weighs 170 pounds and is improv
ing rapidly.'
The 'pta tie Ai a4 isIr - Walker. II e is
very Veil known .in' this city. The above is
the fary he toIdHisid we give it for what
it is worthy There are instances on record
where consumptives have been cured by
drinking warm blood, and if some have been
enred why may not others and all ?

A Slander on Charlotte. An article was
copied into this paper from the Raleigh Era
(Republican) on Sunday, concerning three
orphan children which J H Mills, Esq., re
cently took from Charlotte to the Orphan
Asylum. In the Em's article the following
paragraph occurs
"Another little orphan was found in Char
lotte, and it was desired that she should ac
company those mentioned above to the Asy
lum, but she had no clothes fit to travel
in. A gentleman went to a number of
places where dresses are made, and offered
to pay a good price if a dress were made for
the little one at once. He was told that the
dress could not be made, and on enquiring
the reason, he was informed that the dress
makers were all too busy making dresses for
the ladies of Charlotte to wear to. the "me
morial" exhibition for raising money to de
corate the graves of the Confederate dead!"
This is a reflection upon the ladies of
Charlotte which we cannot pass without
noticing. The truth about the matter is :
that in the afternoon of the day on which
he was hist here, Mr Mills called at Mrs
Query's millinery establishment, and asked
if be could have a dress made for a little
girl whom he wanted to carry off that even
ing to the orphan asylum. He was told that
it could not be done, as all the dressmakers
in that liou&e were engaged , on dresses for
ladies to wear that night to an entertain
ment by the members of the Memorial As
sociation ; that these ladies could riot well
be disappointed, but if he would see those
for whoni the work was being done, and
get them to have the making of their dresses
stopped, then the proprietress would have
the dress made for the little orphau Mr
Mills got quite angry, and made some hard
remarks about making dresses to be worn
to memorial entertainments, thus pre
venting the making of a dress for a little or
phan. . ,,r
Tfow we venture to say that, if Mr Mills
had called on every lady of the memorial
association and stated his ' case, he would
hate found that nine out of ten of them
would haveeadUy consented, not only to
have had the work on their dresses stopped,
but, if it had been necessary would have
themselves made the dres? for the little girl.
Mr Mills called at Mrs" Reed's millinery
rooms and asked if -he 1 could get, ,'the' dress
made. Mr Samuel Wittkowsky, who was
present.Aid riever' iniiid afcout having a
dress made, that h$ rtob.t she could get
one ready made. Thereupon the two gen
tlemen went off, and Miss Farrington, one
jon of the dres.tu.ker. present, stopped
work and for the order to go to work
on the dre,, until word was VeSvthat
a dress had bee,, procured "

The Water Fall 011 the Western Korth
Carolina Railroad.
Conspicuous among the passengers of the
Western bound train, on the Western road,
not many days ago, was a young youth,
whose scarcely visible moustache, would
place him on the sunny skle of twenty-one.
His ruddy complexion and robust physique
marked him an inhabitant of the Blue
Mountains that he was approaching fast.,
and his refreshing sang froid, self-satisfied
look and restless manners forced from his
fellow travellers the magnanimous conclu
sion that, if a Good Templar at all, he had
certainly fdlen from grace. The engine
which stopped for the purpose of taking on
wood placed the passenger train in juxtapo
sition with a tank upon the roadside. Our
hero scanned the reservoir, took a bird's-eye
view of the surroundings, caught hold of
the scaffolding and clambered up the sides.
When, however, he was sure of a firm foot
ing, he attempted, as we thought, to raise
the valve so as to let the water trickle slow
ly and gently, and drink until the fiery fluid
within was somewhat tempered. He push
ed it, though too far, and a stream like the
rushing of a cataract swept him struggling
from the platform, and landed him uncere
moniously under the train. His drenching
was a small matter, for he was a man, and
able to bear it : but as fate would have it, a
lady was looking out of the window under
neath, and was silently contemplating the
beauties of the landscape around. A head
and shoyldeis immersed in water were has
tily withdrawn into the cars? a scream of
fright was heard ; and a dripping lace col
lar and other xquisite millinery were hid
den from the view by shawls and other arti
cles of winter use that were called in requi
sition Tor the occasion.
On hearing laugher we frowned, fairly
shook with indignation, and retired to pon
der over the cold sympathy of an unfeeling
world, and the want of gallantry and chiv
alry that characterizes the age. The lad'
remarked that she had never been partial to
waterfalls and hoped that they would soon
go out of fashion. We admired the perti
nency and practical philosophy of that re
mark. There were various and plausible
conjectures, theories, tfcc, regarding the
young man's purpose. Some thought that
he was ignorant of the accommodations of
the train, but the prevailing opinion was
that he was then dreaming oT his native
hills among the South Mountains of Burke
county, and imagined that in seeing the
aperture, he had discovered a secret entrance
into the side of some blockade distillery.
We believe his motives were impugned, still
he evidently met with a cooler reception
than he expected. He seemed both surpris
ed and enraged, and as he flicked himself
up from among the ear wheels, and stood
with dilated eyes and spouting nostrils, he
reminded us qf a young lion, who, aroused
from his lair, was shaking the dew drops
from his mane. When we heard that boy
whistle mysteriously, then saw him shiver
ing and sullen, we were satisfied that he
thought the temperance motto of "cold wa
ter" was a poor comfort. He was sobered
for the time being, and seemed considerably
down-cast ; but as we were leaving the train,
his face brightened, and, displaying a half
empti! flask, be winked at us with much
significance. g.
