Both hotels were crowded yesterday and the proprietors looked happy. Only 18 miles of track remain unlaid on the Carolina Central Railroad, and the rails are being laid at the rate of a mile a day in good weather. The Young Mens Christian Association, organized last week, now numbers about forty-five members, They will have anoth er meeting Wednesday night. The wind blew in gales all day yesterday, and hats were as good to show which way the wind was blowing as "straws." We can claim that much progress any way. "After the old pastor died, the deacons went about for a two hundred and fifty dol lar minister, and you can get about as much minister for that price as you can get psalm tunes out of a file," says an exchange. Elsewhere we publish a communication from our missing "local" which is all we know of htm, or the trial upon which he is amending in Wilkes Court. We hear by grape vine telegram that the trial was going on all day Saturday, until late at night, and rumor has it that that the trial lasted all day Sunday. We don't believe that and merely publish it for all that it is worth. We sent a reporter out yesterday wht re turned after three hours with an item long enough to make just two lines. We needed a whole column. His report W3S that neatly everybody were attending to their own business distressingly. Those who were not had gone into their hole", and had pulled the holet in after them. Provoking to say the least. Personal. E. B.

Cutting Affray. A couple of women, got into a quarrel late last night, at the second exchange, which resulted in both getting cat serious ly. We could get no particulars. Arrested. A negro man named John Coleman, was ar rested last Sunday eyening, by a warrant from Justice Martin upon the charge of be ing accessory to the murder of Mr. Setzer, of Rowan . It is believed now in the posses sion of the officers of the law, that the man wa not guilty of the charge. took Out I Several casea were called yesterday at Court, and the witnesses or suitors net being present, were made to feel the strong arm of the law by the enforcement of fines and for feitures. We are assared that every man will be called out who doq't answer to his name promptly. We advise them to take warning, and be at their post when needed. No Telegrams. We can skirmish around generally and pick up local items, sometimes when there is noDe, but to be coolly told by tbe telegrapb operator at nine o'clock at night, that all the wires are down, as they were last night and after our recent pledges to our patrons must go for uaugbt is hard to bear. Bat 3uchislife. We make no further apology than to say that it is not oar fault. We can't make telegrams. C, C. & A. R. R. The meeting of the stockholders at Colum bia, on Friday the 20th, was only moderate ly attended. Tbe preient Board Di rectors were re-elected, except M K Jes sup, who was dropped, and J J McLure, of Chester, was chesen in his place. Reports showed a falling off of about $10,000 in tbe receipts of the road. A proposi ion to lease the road was beard, and a committee appointed to .take the whole matter into consideration. Also, a committee to exam ine the condition of the road. Southern Home. . . Fatal Accident. " A negro man whose name we could not learn, a brakesman on the Air Line Railroad, was found dead on the track near King's Mountain yesterday. It was thought that he had fallen be tween the cars or, a. passenger train, and itadd another train passed over his' body before it was discovered. When discovered his remains were horribly mangled. "They - were gath ered up and brought to Charlotte for interment. The poor fellow it seems was rather a provident sort of individual, and had saved quite a sum of money from his wages, and when it was known that he was killed it was said, although it was not known that he had a single relation in Charlotte before, that quite a number of cousins, sisters-in-law, and other near kinfolks wanted to be marked and numbered as such, not forgetting that one of the engineers had several hundred dollars- of the dead man's money deposited with him for safe keeping. It is remarkable how many relatives a man can have when it is known that a few hundred dollars are to be dis posed of to the nearest of kin, and when the line of relationship is ob scure enough to be a matter of doubt. Thanksgiving Day. The Governor of the State of North Caro lina, has set apart the 26th (next Thursday) of November as a day of thanksgiving, and by reference to our advertising columns it will be seen that the Commercial National Bank will close business for that day. Judging by the fact that the other banks do not advertise, we presume they expect to do business. Wehave indeed much to be thankful for. Our labors have been reasonably remunera tive, we have been spared the rayages of pestilence and famine, and what is more the white winged dove of peace perches aloft in the tree of our national redemption from radical rule, and the country North, East, South and West, can feel that the star span gled banner, floats oyer a land which we love as the birth right of our fathers. May we hope for the dawn of many such days--and ought we not. t bo thankfnl for those we have ? Restored Voice. It will be recollected as mentioned by us some two months ago, Mr. H. A. Beams, of Dnrhnm, of the firm of Reams fc Walker, large tobacco dealers of Durham, lost his voice and has since been deprived of speech without the sltebtest sickness attending. On the following day he enms to this city, and put himself under the treatment of Dr. Geo. W, Graham. After a eearfuriagnosis. Dr. G. gave his professional opinion to the ef fect 'bat he was curable, and at once com menced a course of treatment. Two months elapsed without the slightest change in his condition, only a gradaal disappearance of the tnberenles in the throat, that Dr. G. dis covered in his first examination, and which he believed, if removed, wonld restore the voice. He succeeded in bis treatment, and Tuesday last Mr. Reams' voice returned. Dr. Graham, is a son of ex-Gov. Graham, and bids fair to take a prominent rank among the medical fraternity of his day, es pecially in tbe treatment of the eye, ear, Ac. Raleigh Sentinel. Generl Mart. F. Gray's Speech. The following words were used by Gen. Gray, on the occasion of the presentation by Colonel Thomas of tbe military cadets, to the association at tbe Fair Grounds in Colombia last week, viz ; "I am deputised by tha President of our association to wel come you and your cadets to tbe hospitali ties and privileges of our fair. The presence of so fine a body of gallant young men, will not fail to awaken a sincere admiration on the part of all whose good fortune it is to meet them. Coming as you do from oar sister State, yea call up the memories of the past, where your ancestors fought under the same flag for American Liberty, side by side with those who then illustrated the valor of our own State. In the recent struggle for constitutional liberty, your fathers proved that they were worthy descendants of a no ble ancestry. Trained under military dis. ciphne, you have learned that the highest du. ty of a soldier is obedience to constituted authority, I know that your distinguished preceptor has taught you to speak tbe truth . to be brave, honest, patriotic and devoted to principle. With these virtues emhlazoned upon your flag of life, you witl become an ornament to your institutions, and the just pride of your country." The Drama Last Night. The theatre-goers of Charlotte were entertained last night by Mrs. Lander and her Dramatic troupe; in a manner which seldom falls to their lot. The reputation of two at least of the chief actors had preceded them, and those who had secured seats at the Opera House were not disappointed. Mrs. Lander, in her role as Elizabeth, if possible excelled herself, and, at times made her audience feel as if they were indeed in the presence of the sov ereign Queen of England. Frank Law lor, as King James of Scotland, fully sustained his reputation, while Mr. Taylor, as Earl of Essex, so ably de lineated his part as to remind one of the noble blood which coursed through the veins pf his eminent predecessor. Miss Henrietta Osborne and Miss Em ma Markley, in their several parts, ac quitted themselves 'with dramatic hon ors. Mrs Lander, in her delineations of the great Queen Elizaceth, took her audience into the secret closet, as it were, there to read the heart emotions of one of the greatest Queens who ha ever sat on England's throne; there to wonder whether, she was greatest as the lover of Earl of Essex, or la the PYPrmflfi nf Vitr nnppnlv Trrntnfi re - - -l j f- - , in putting her signature to his death warrant. J The little Miss May Preston as Ma- ; rie Lambrun, wrung rounds of ap- ' plause from the appreciative audience, and it knew not which to applaud most, the exhibition of unselfish love and devotion in the effort to revenge the injuries which had been wontonly inflicted upon her, or the magnanimi ty with which the gracious sovereign was pleased to pardon her. In fine, without going further, we may say that the whole company fully sustained the reputation which they have gained on the boards of the great est cities on the continent. We will not do the company the in justice to attempt a description of the play in which numbers of the best tragedians have won their way to dramatic fame, but congratulate the audience who were fortunate enough to secure seats, and express cur sorrow for those who did not. Whatever our opinion may be worth we unhesitatingly say, we have seen nothing of the kind on the boards in Charlotte,and regret that they stay with us only one day. Wherever they may go they will carry with them the kind remembrances of those who saw them last night, and our wishes for their re turn. Shooting Affair. On Sunday rooming a difficulty occurred between two young men at the residence of Mr. F. A. McNinch, which resulted serious ly, if not fatally. The difficulty was be tween two young men who are painters and who are working for Mr. N. C. Harry, a con tractor in that business. They were both boarders and the shooting (in which an in nocent man was seriously if not fatally shot) took place in his house. We give the following account of the af fair as obtained from an eye witness . Man son (the man who was shot at) and Norris (the shootist) occupied the same room and to all appearances were good friends, both occupying the same bed. On Sunday morning Norris got up first and teased and scuffled with Manson, in a playful manner to make him get up at tbe same time. It did not suit Manson to get up at that time, and after a passage of words he (Norris) became angry, and a fight ensued, a la Hee nan and Sayers, in which Manson used Norris up pretty badly. This was a very in teresting part of the programme as both of the participants were en dishabille, but like all other things mortal it had to come to an end. After the contending parties had sep arated, Norris managed to get hold of his pistol which was lying near by, and Man son immediately became suddenly seized with the truth of the expression that "dis cretion is sometime, the better part of valor" and retreated toward the door. A young man whose name we have been requested to withhold, who was an employee of Mr. McNinch, was in the room, and attempted to pas out of the door at the same time. This nameless individual and Manson were side by side, going out at the door when Norris fired, and the ball missing the party fired at (Manson) took effect in the left side of the innocent man. The ball passed through the fleshy part of the left arm, of injured party, and entered the left side, and the wound filled up so rapidly that the ball could not be found by a good surgeon. Norris was immediately arrested, and as the people wended their way to Church yes terday morning he was answering to the charge of attempted homicide, before the Mayor's Court. Facts as above given were elicited which induced the Mayor to bind the accused over to Court in a bond ot two hundred and fifty dollars, which was after wards changed to one thousand, in default of which the prisoner was sent to jail. This is a sad occurrence, although judging from reports which we had from the injured man yesterday evening, it is not likely to prove fatal, but it shows conclusively the dangers resulting from the indis criminate carrying of arms, which of ten lead to fatal results when not expected. The parties are all young-men of the best character, and ten minutes before the occur ence were good friends. The wounded man was doing well at last accounts and gave hopes of a speedy recovery, and everything is being done for him that is possible. WILKES COURT. Trial of Joseph D. Elliott for the Homi cide ofJCharles T. Neal The Jury Empannelled, &e., &c. l.OCALITOMAL CORRESPONDENCE. WlLKESBORO, N. C, ) Thursday Nigbt, Nov. 19. f I arrived at Wilkesboro this evening just before dark. Ism here "on an invitation based upon legal precedents," that is to say, by reason of 8 subpoena served upon me to appear here on this day to testify in tbe case of the State vs J. D. Elliott, for homicide. Now why I should have been summoned here, is "one of those things which no fellow can find out," unless indeed, the counsel for the State in this case is imbued with a cer. tain idea which is largely prevalent to wit that a lecal reporter is everywhere all at the same time. I was in Charlotte when this tragedy occurred in Statesville, and knew nnthiosr more about it than any reader of this who never beard of the homicide ; bat tbe summons comes, and I most drop busi ness and everything else to come op here and tell tbe honorable counsel that I know noth ing about the matter in question. A form of oppression, this is, which should not be tolerated in a free country .v t left Charlotte Thursday afternoon, spent the sight io Statmille, and from there came here to-day. Thejourney was a ' most un i pleasant one. From Statesville here tbe distance is 40 miles. I rode it in an open buggy, with a cold heavy mist driving me fairly in the face nearly all the way. It was an all day journey, and over this mountain country (for one has to cross the Brushy Mountains) and over these heavy roads, it required bard driving to make tbe trip be tween "the rising of the pan and tbe going down of the same " At the Spring term of Iredell Court the case of .1. D. Elliott for slaying Chas. T. Neal, Was removed to this county, and the trial was set far to-day (Thursday.) The prisoner was brought here from Statesville jail on Tuesday. Tbe number of witnesses summoned and present, on both sides, is 75 or 80. Mr. R. M. Allison, of the counsel for the prosecution, who seems to have had the summoning of tbe witnesses, subpoeneed all his acquaintaintances, and this village is now chuck full. The case was called this morning, and the usual preliminaries were gone through. All of the day was consumed in getting a jury. After the regular panel, a venire of 75 wa? snmmo ied. Oat of these only 9 jurymen were chosen ; another venire of 25 was sum moned, and, the limit having been reached, the remaining 3 were selected. The jury, after having been secured, was empannelled. and sworn, His Honor Judge Mitchell, de livered his charge, and by this time night had fallen, and Court was adjourned until to morrow morning. The first thing in order will be a statement from the counsel, and then the taking of the testimony will begin. I give here the names of the jurors :HamiI- ton Joines, A F Forrester, T M Joines, Johnston Hampton, E K Walsh. H C Pen nell, Wesley Joine3, John K. Burgess, Jesse T Ferg uson, John McCarter, W T Minton P H Johnston "good and lawful men." The jury nfter having been sworn in, was placed in the charge of an officer, and piit in close confinement. After the testimony is taken, which will consume all of to-mor row, if not more, the real battle begins. Each side is ably represented ; the counsel, for the prisoner are : Ex-Gov Vance. Lien tenant Governor R F Armfield. Col G N Folk. I?aac M Wellbwn, T J Dula and L L Witlierspoon. The prosecution is repre sented by Solicitor W H B Cowter, Baily and McCorkle. D MFurches and R M Aili son. All tbe attorneys are present. 1 his is one of the most interesting trials in tbe anuals of North Carolina history. Most of our readers are familiar with the outlines of the case, and, as I propose to report the trial in extenso, will not now dwell upon it. En passant I will remark that a brother of tbe slain Neal is present, prnseeutiog the suit with all his vigor. From Capt Horton, the excellent Clerk of the Court, I learn that tbe cases tried thus far at this term of Court, are of a trivial nature and not entitled to especial notice.- Beside the Elliott case there is, I understand, another capital case on tbe docket, the grand jury having this afternoon found a true bill against Martha Semilley, white, for infanticide Yance is here, a3 everywhere, the observ ed of all observers, and these mountaineers are anxiously waiting for the conclusion of the evidence in this murderer case, when the great Carolinian will unlimber bis guns. Armfield is well known here, and everybody is anxious to grasp his hand and congratu late him opon his recent promotion. He is a long-headed, clear-beaded statesman ; there is a bright futures before that man. It is an honor to North Carolina that she is the mother of such a man. "I'm tired now and sleepy too," and though a crowd of Statesville follows in the next room have just called to me to come in and take a hand at draw-noker; I have been forced to tell them 'not for Jo."

This question is practically answered in the affirmative by thousands,. of physicians everyday. Sometimes they '-prescribe the ordinary forms of alcohol ; sometimes tine tures which are simply inferior alcohol, more or less medicated ; bat bo small pro portion of tbe faculty give the preference to Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, as tbe most carefully prepared medicinal stimulant at present known.
