STThe infant child of W. H. H. Gregory,
Esq.. of this city, died last evening.
The Board of Aldermen will meet on
Monday night next.
The mud has nearly all disappeared from
the main streets, and they are again smooth
and solid.
Thanks for that little serenade last night
about 12 o'clock. The compliment was no
lees appreciated thun the music.
The next opening of the Opera House
will be on the 26th and 27th, when the Cot
ton Feild Minstrels will appear here.
"Fer heclome the cemetery fence, and
thowed rocks at a goose on the pond," is
why a little darkey was collared and turned
over to the po ice yesterday. The Mayor
discharged him with a reprimand.
Old Probs "went back on hisself," when
he predicted that yesterday would be rainy.
When he said, though, thatit would be cold,
he struck it '"between wind and water."
The Air Line failed to make its connec
tions yesterday morning. It was three hours
behind time, owing to a freight train being
ditched somewhere on the road.
There are unmailable letters in the post
office at Columbia, 8. C, addressed to Laura
Rudisill and R Agnew, Charlotte, N. C.
What has become of the proposition to
establish a street railway line? We have
heard nothing of it lately. 8hall we ride or
shall we continue to walk? That is the
question.
Young Mr. Griffith, of this city, who was
shot in Monroe on Friday last, by a man
named Moore, is improving rapidly, and
will soon, it is hoped, be as well as usual.
The Mayor had no cases yesterday, and
even our "old guard," (the police) of whom
it has been our habit to say. they never
surrender" or "flop," when we call on
them for news, couldn't help us out to the
extent of even one item.
Male Stolen.
We understand that a mule was stolen
on Wednesday night, from a Mr. Alexander,
who lives eight miles from the city on the
Providence road. It was tracked yesterday
morning to witbin four miles of the city,
and there all traces of it disappeared. This
bane of the honest and industrious farmer,
is rife in the land. "
Personal.
Hon. A T Akerman, of Georgia, ex-Attorney
General of the United States, was at the
Central Hotel yesterday.
J PBabington, Esq., editor of the Shelby
Aurora, arrived at the Qharlotte Hotel last
evening, and will call upon our merchants
to-day, in the interest of his paper, which
we commend to them.
Col. Thos. Dodamead, formerly of the
Charlotte, Columbia & Augusta Railroad,
but now of the Chesapeake & Ohio, has been
in the city for several days.
Cheap Transportation.
We notice the completion of the Carolina
Central Railroad between Wilmington and
Charlotte, N. C, forming an entire new con
nection between the sea coast and the up
country, and promising a still further reduc
tion in rates of trar sportation of freight.
The new road, in connection with the At
lanta & Richmond Air-Line,has already made
a reduction of nearly 25 per c nt on a car
load of salt between Wilmington and Spar
tanburg, and from this we preseme that the
reduction will be extended to all classes of
freight. Spartanburg (S C) Spartan,
Clogged Lamp Wicks. ,
We clip the following from an exchange
and publish it for the benefit of housekeep
ers: "The light often is unsatisfactory,
while all is apparently in good order. It
should be borne in mind that, though the
wick is but very gradually burned, it is con
stantly becoming less able to conduct the
oil. During several weeks, some quarts of
oil are slowly filtered through the wick,
which stops every particle of dust or other
matter that will, with the utmost care, be in
he best kinds of oil. The result is, that
the wick, though it is of sufficient length
and looks as good as ever, has its conduct
ing power greatly impaired, as its pores, so
to speak, or the minute channels by which
the oil reaches the place to be burned, be
comes gradually obstructed. It is often
economy to substitute a new wick for an old
one, even if that be plenty long enough to
serve for! some time to come."
Southern Magazine.
We have on our table the February num
ber of the Southern Magazine It is a hue
literary journal, published at 8 N. Charles
street, Baltimore, by Turnbull Brothers, at
$4.15 per annum. Among the more no
ticeable articles in the present number, are
"The Odd Trump," "Glimpses of Old-Time
Paeeantry," " In Arcady," a poem, by Bar
ton G-ey. of Charleston, " Armand de Pont-
martin," by John Esten Cooke, of Virginia
"The Death of Cleopatra," by Appleton
Oaksmitb, member of the North Carolina
Hnn ftf Representatives, from ; Carteret
countv. There are other articles, poems,
short stories and continued stories, in this
number, besides reviews; and a good assort
ment of miscellany. The Southern Magazine
is the official organ of the Southern Histor
ical 8ociety. It is essentUlly a Southern
publication,' and a meritorious 'oneYand as
such is entitled to the support of Southern
people.

Applieatlea for Asalstaitce.''' .t
Yesterday afternoon two young men, giy
ing their names as William Hardy and Dan
iel Grinlth, applied to Mayor Davidson for
means to assist them in getting to Cbarles
ton.their home. Their story is that they were
ship-wretched off Hatteras, near Norfolk
They with six others, constituted the rew
of the brig Elizahbeth Baker, of Charleston,
bound from Norfolk to San Francisco with
a cargo of coal. The brig was caught in a
hurricane and lost, with four of the crew,
who floated about in a yawl boat from Sun
day night until Tuesday morning, when
they were picked up by a British steamer
and carried to New York.
The captain gave these two transporta
tion to Norfolk, and frjra there they have
made their way on foot to this plae, whence
they propose going home. The Mayor
could not extend city aid to them without
consultation with a majority of the Board of
Aldemen and told them to return to him
this morning. They say that when tbey
get to Charleston they will go to work in the
ship yard, where they were before they ship
ped on a vessel, and Hardy says that, for
his part, "he is done with the water "" Both
of the young men are poorly clad, and give
every evidence of great destitution. Th-ir
story is quite a pitiful one, as told by them.
Cotton Over the C. C. & A. R, R.
During the last fiscal year, 147,107 bales of
cotton were forwarded over the Charlotte,
Columbia fe Augusta .Railroad, according to
the published report of the general freight
agent, Col. Pope. Of this amount,. 19,402
bales were shipped from Charlotte proper.

The City Clock.
The concern which was supposed to be a
clock, and which was put in the tower of
Tryon Street M. E. Church about eighteen
months ago, has been taken down, as indeed
it should have been immediately after hav
ing been put up. It was designed as a bell
for the church and for the clock also, and'
was cracked in a few weeks after being put
in position, just as cast-iron bells always did
nd always will crack when you try to get
any sound out of them. The congregation
of the church is now called together by ver
bal announcements of the pastor, in ad
vance, and by newspaper notices ; as for the
city clock, it only tells the time to those
who can see it.
There is another bell of the same sort on
the platlorm of the North Carolina Depot,
for the same place. It has been" there for
some time, and if it is to be put up at all,
now would be a good time ; if people are
expected to find out that it is there, it must
be rung before the March winds set in, else
it will "bust its biier" in trying to be heard
among the discord of the elements. Yes,
put old cast iron up ; she will last for a week
or two, anyhow, if they will muffle the clap
per and then not hit her too hard.
Carolina Military Institute.
A good crowd was present 'last night at
the Carolina Military Institute, to attend the
exhibition of the members of the second
class. Though debarred the pleasure of be
ing present, we understand that the evening
passed off agreeably, and that the young
gentlemen acquitted themselves with credit.
The programme, as published in yesterday's
ssue of this paper, was observed. In addi
tion to that, cadets Snowden and Childa, of
the third class, delivered speeches. The ex
hibition of this class will be continued to
day, beginning at 10:30 A. M. The pro

The Public Confidence Well . Placed,
Although the world has been seeking

these few i Hostetter's Stomach ' Bitters.
which year1 ago received the ' endorsement
of the medical profession, and was hailed by
press and public as the great :renoyant and
preventive ot the age. And with good rea
son. Since to the weakened stomach it gives
strength, to the torpid liver activity, to the
disordered bowels regularity, and to, the.
shaken nerves fi-mness and tone. .; Under
its benignant influence! healthful vigor re

the wan aspect of ill health is replaced by a
look of cheerfulness, tbe mind ceases to de

in this statement.Tt is as true as that the
