tising columns the ")ate firm of .Keel Per

Mr John T Butler,;the jeweler, will re

he will be pleased to see his old customers.
Mr Hales, watch-maker and jeweler, asso
ciates Mr Farrier, With him as a partner and
makes a public announcement of that fact
this, morning. The well-known reputation
of ihe house makes it unnecessary for & to
say ;more. 'v -
An advertisement in another column, by
a Wilmington firm announces the "first
consignment through fifcm charlotte." This
ought to have appeared several days ago,
butj for the suspension of the Observes for
the'holidays, and during the removal of our
office. Though late, its announcement es
tablishes the value of our new line to Wil
mington. Messrs. Grant fc Hinton are the
first to receive a consignment fxom our
charlotte merchants. Rhy may not others
profit by the example.

The notorious Laura Sharp was in a new

of comment from the ladies.

Flayed tst evening to a slim crowd
a6 the Opera House. It was a fine en
tertainment as minstrel shows go. It
waa'head and shoulders above any
which has ever appeared on the Char

showed how deeply the crowd appre
ciated the performance, and it jeloeed
to tfe regret of all.
A? a burnt cork crowd, the' Haver

who fancy that kind of amusement,
we cordially commend them.

Christinas Casualties
The holidays weie productive of drunks
not a few, and, as a natural consequence,
rows followed. Three or foW difficultieaof
a very Beriqus nature occurred ; "the , knife
and pistol figured conspicuously, and three
or four parties made barrow escapes 5 from
death. iThere seems to have been no good
reason ifor the occurrence of any of the
troubles, and nearly if not quite all of them
are traceable to too much benzine. First in
order, came Phllo Reid, who got shot by
.Frank Morrow; both the parties are colored;
Reid was! shot the neck, and it was
thought for a time that the wound was a
fetal one, he. is up and about hew, hbwe ter,
though the ban'Wa.b'siMtsdrr?

Dunla i The, womi was a severe vone, and

In addition' to
theseleoieEjavidsori waa cut by Thos.

It is. not true, as was reported, that two of
the participants in these difficulties were fa
tally injured, they are all now able to be up.
All of them are colored.
Burwell & Springs '
For -lackjof space, jpefrfygtYrJij
call attention to the " yersemenitiof this
new firm. Messrs- BarweU & Springs have
just bought out the grocery stock of Bui
well, Grfer and Cb.i:
If we had any especial good words tor say
iur anjuouy, we wouia give inem to tuvs
Urm ; for if two more worthy and deserving
young men than Ed. - Bnrwell and Eli
Springs ever-lived, we never- met them;
and if there be any two in! .whose prosperity
we would more rejoice, 'we dotnow who
they are.
Messrs. Burwell and Springs will keep on
band aiwaye, as ftneFsttrek of groceries as
can be found in the city ;' they will sell these
at as low rates as any other firm can. . We
ask for them a large patronage, and if they
do not sell as low as any other firm, their pa
trons may draw on us at sight for the differ
ence. The Claims of Charlotte aa a Market.
The Asheville Expositor seems to
misinterpret a recent article, in the
Observer concerning the relative
claims of Charlotte and Wilmington
upon the up-country trade. The pa-
per named says :
"Now we wish to say to the Observ
er that our western people are looking
out for the best prices, and if Charlotte,
shall tan to buy our apples, potatoes,
cabbage, poultry, buckwheat flour,
corn, wheat, and the various other com-
modities now crowding the market, J
the Uharlotte merchants need not be
surprised to see our our hale, deter
mined mountaineers on board the
Carolina Central, with thousands of
big cabbage averaging eighteen pounds
to the head, and with several hundred
turdeos and chickens from Mitchell
and Watauga counties, and with bar
rels of the fine apples from Yancey
county with the best buckwheat flour
in the. land crying out, 'Onward to
Wilmington.'
"We do not mean by this to under
rate Charlotte, but to indicate that if
they would succeed, her merchants
must afford a market, at remunerating
prices, for all the agricultural products
of the West."
And that is exactly what the Char
lotte merchants propose to do. Why,
surely the Expositor does not imagine
thawe expect the up-country trade
if the up-country people can do better
in any other market. Why, of
course not. Charlotte expects that
trade because she intends to offer
greater inducements than any other
place, and upon this alone does she
base her expectation.
