Temperance' Lecture
Our townsman, Dr. T. J. Moore, has re-(
ceiv4imvitation: to Relive a lecture on
thestbjejlof temperance in Statesyille on
the Srdroi'aDd has accepted., The people
of that town .may prepare themselves for
an unusually interesting and withal tensible
address. Dr Mqora. has. fhis.'jiy Jliflty
fri ;:the tempranqe caose Va(The )sJnot
fanatical on the subject as some are. He
appeals to men'' ' reason and ' not to their
fears, Thus his converts are genuine ones,
and not those who backslide so soon as they
get over their scare.
Our Post Office.
A stranger in Charlotte the other day re
marked that! he was surprised that a place
the size of this had no better post office
building. We have been of the opinion for
some time that Charlotte is entitled to a bet
ter pfjSp- qffijef tfcafi htf hksrV ilhiingtoh
has just had a lie w and eleganforie built1 Ar
her, one is soon to be built in Raleigh, and
why "not tiie Government build 'Charlotte a
new orief The post office is how' 'ih an un
sightly house, and one too small for the pur
pose. 4 The postal business lief e is heavy,
and we are as. ranph entitled . to - a decent
building' as any other place. Wa suppose
one .will be built about the "same time the
union passenger depot is.
A Curious Circumstance.
One of the most singular things that ever
fell under our'obseryation, occurred, in the
Observer job office yesterday. The press
man ws running off a job on a power press,
and the press being in rapid motion, one of
the sheets slipped as he put it in, and missed
the form of type. When pulled oft the roll
er, around which it wrapped itsel(7itbore
the impression of a landscapa,.,in "some
parts perfectly, with here and there bro
ken' ground, was perfectly plain, as were
also the clouds which flecked the sky.
This is one of those singular occurrences
for which no one can account. It f'is cer
tainly a curiosity, and can le seen at this
office by those who doubt the story "Of are

A fight occurred yesterday evening abuiit

Prim.oh the one side,, and, Wm Wedlock snd
George Herroh on the other. The knocking
Vasquitelivelyfor Wtinie.'and n 1 trge crowd
was attracted by, jthe acbsnce. , No - seri
ous injury was doiie any of tbe belligerents,
and they "were parted before 'the fight- had
proceeded far. ... '"' -v-.-- '4-
All' the parties engaged were bound over to
appear before the Mayor to-morrow morn
ing. The origin of the difficulty, we learn,
was the bringing up of a grudge which has
existed jog ,soine time ' between; JPiettis and
Wedlock.
