Death of an Old Citizen. Yesterday morning Mr. John Uigler, of this city, breathed hia last. He was one of the old citizens of the place, being 59 years of age at the time of his death, and having been a resident of the place singe early manhood. He came here as an attache of the Mint, about the time it was established, and has been living here eyer since. He died, possessing the respect and confidence of the community, as an honest? straight forward, good citizen. Funeral notice in another column. 'Big Eyed Rabbit Boot" Yesterday mording while some plowing was being done in the garden of Mr J. N. Gray, of this city, the plow turned up a nest containingjfour curious little epecimens'of the animal creation. One of these was pre sented to us. It is shaped, as to its head, body and tail, just like a rabbit. Its hair, however, is black, and in other respects it is unlike a rabbit. It has not yet attained sufficient antiquity to open its eyes, else we could tell with more certainty, what manner of "beast" it is. Tbe Mexican Show. This "circus" gave two more performances yesterday. There are those who go to cir cuses and every other sort of show, deter mined to "let off some laugh," and these had a glorious time. The performances yesterday and last night were about as on the day before, and our remarks of yester day will apply again this morning. The music last night was much itnproved by the addition of a hand organ. A circular saw (rives out much more melodious sounds than that "Mexican brass band." The singing of the clowns was poorer than the music of the band, and their wit (?) poorer than either one. "Mexican Sensation Show vale. Victimized Again. ( We published, yesterday, what purported to haye been a rebuke administered by a minister to a railroad conductor, on account of profane language used on the train by the latter, j We were told yesterday by our informant that the story was a .'"put up job" on the conductor; and that he (our inform ant) got us to publish it as a "good joke" on the conductor, who had already been much teased by it. Had we known, as we do now, tuat tne story was manuiaciureu, we should not have published it, but, in the in nocence of our nature we did not suspect this. Lest it should militate against tbe young man, in some way or other, we make this explanation, taking occasion to observe that ?uch "jokes" are not palatable. : U; f Railroad Accident Yesterday an accident occurred on the Carolina Central Railroad, four miles from this city,5 which is likely to result fatally, we learn, to one person. ' Ati engine of the. old North Carolina .Railroad gauge, had got caught at this end of the line, and had to take the Wil""11 gton road to get back to the Sh jps, going from Wilmington via the Wil mington & Weldon Railroad. The engine and two csZ-a got safely over a bad place in the road, but the third car jumped the track, causing the rear cars.to jam up against it, A negro bkeman, just at this time was go ing up the ladder or one rear cars, to get to hi? brakes when the two cars which he was .between,! ran close up together.the bumpers not meeting. He was mashed between them and his hips,; legs and. body badly crushed; wunlersttid that his ! chances of life are very slim. ; Two other negroes were hurt, but less seriously. We could not ascertain the name of tbe injured man. .Nine cars were thrown from the track. Vance's Receptiou lu Virginia. Tbe following article concerning our dis tinguished townsman, is from the Norfolk, (Va.) Landmark: . ; ; -Everything which ( tends to promote the mutual I good feeling and regard which North Carolina and Virginia should cherish for each other, is hailed by us with unaf fected Measure;-:for, as i the States were bound together in war, so in peace are they idpntified in manT of their interests. ; And , hence it 'is that we have observed theim- pression made by Vance' during his recent yisit with great satisfaction. He began his career as a i "piatiorm oraior in mis cwy last Spring; and within the past week made his appearance in .Richmond and Peters burg. v?Un the Capitol he was received with great cordiality, and became tbe object of J universal attention, while in the Cockade glad Vance- has made this second visit to vrrginia, xor 11. u , tart. at least, that ne is no oniy inn 01 wmj most charming humor ad a great "slump I speaker, L-t.k.,l, K.. i.

The mail train came hr yesterday, morning at 8 o'clock.'THily an hour and a half behind its schedule 'time,' Th express train reach ed this city at 11:30 last night, And will leave this morning as usual.1" We haye no 'doube that, in a day or two more, trains will run as regularly as they did , before the change. The track is in veryjgood' .'order; a Rijh- mond dt Danville K&ilroaa conductor says it is quite as good now a) that track is. The Cemetery -. t . ; This consecrated spot is now clothed in the beauteous habiliments of Spring. .Many o(f the flowers aje ': blooming beautifully, and new ones are being set out: on the borv dera of the walks. The green house, stand ing on the summit; , of ' the eminence, , is Charming indd, aod will present a scene of still greater attractiv eafjw. ,w.tw a --the Bpria&iritlritsiW shine and gentle; 'showersshall have been a little further advanced, and cast' its genial influence over the earth. The walks have been cleared of the grass, and weeds, and sand has been placed on them and, rolled smooth. . The Cemetery is the loveliest spot about our city, and Mr. itooke does himself credit in the care which he exercises in beautify ing and rendering so attractive, this "silent city of the dead." " " A Returned Carolinian. We had the great pleasure of meeting in the cityY yesterday, our friend, Dr. J. E. Doutb.it, who is at present in Charlotte on a tour of inspection. : Dr. Douthit is a native of Davidson county; after the war he re moved to Statesville, where he engaged in the mercantile and drug business with H. P. Eccles, Esq.. the present proprietor of the Central Hotel., From Statesville he emigra ted to Missouri, where he pursued the prac tice of his profession, with great Success, .4fter four or five years there, he went . to Pennsylvania, and is again in tbe Old North State, with an idea of making Charlotte his future home. Dr. . Douthit speaks in high terms of the fertility of the soil of Missouri and the rapid progress of the country, but the climate was too rigorous for his constitution and he. was' compelled to leave it on that account. , , . t We trust tbat he will fully determine to locate amohs us. He would be a valuable acquistion. He is a talented and accom pllshed gentleman, a learned and successful physician, and we would cordially welcome him as a citizen of charlotte. The Carolina Central. We are requested to say in reply to a phunny" article in the Charlotte Observer of the 12th, that the passenger trains of this company have but in a single instance tailed to leave Charlotte on or about schedule time and never failed to reach that city either direct or by transfer, except -in a few cases where slides had covered tne track, before the hour for leaving of the next train. Ibis we consider renects credit upon tbe officers and employees and especially upon tne conductors, engineers and track men aud masters. Those of our readers who are acq a anted with the character of the" soil betwe n Mon roe and Charlott$.will appreciate the trouble in maintaining these connections so well in the face of difficulties tbat would have de terred less energetic, men. Wilmington Journal. We will say in reply to this that we have never charged the Carolina Central, with any failure to leaye Charlotte on time ; no, not once. Nor have we ever charged any officer or employee of the road with any dereliction of duty. , No one goes before us in admiration of the energy and faithfulness with which each and every one of them dis charges his duty, and this is by no means the first time we have given expression to this sentiment. We fully appreciate . the difficulties under which the management labor, and do not believe that any set of men could have run the road more success fully; under the circumstances, -than they have done since its -completion. We have made mention of its accidents and mishaps, but simply .because thse things fell within the line of our business ; certainly not because we were prompted by ill will toward the road or any of its managers. But business is business. Locals are locals, : up here brother James, and news is not so abundant that We can afford to let such an item as a railroad accident slip through our fingers, on any account. . . . The Mecklenburg Declaration. W- H, Bailey, Esq., has done us the kind- naa to place the following correspondence in our hands. It is self-explanatory. Mr. Bailey has reference in his letter, as Col. Cant well supposes, to certain passages in the Memoirs of Josiah Quincy.' We Would feel under obligations to Col C, if he would furnish us the extracts bearing upon the Mecklenburg Declaration, as we haye no conv of the Memoirs In our ossession. The following are the letters f , ; . : Chbmwtk, N. C.," March 13, 1875. "Hon.

Concert Xast Night, ' " 1 JF TT Mills "ITan thn flnnorintondon rf tie Oxford Orphan Asylum,' arrived in Charlotte yesterday morning, bringing with him . eleven of the little orphans. These children have been giving concerts at seve- ral places in the State, and last evening they gave one, on brief notice, at the Baptist church here. The church was quite well filled, notwithstanding the rain, and the verdict of appro val , was general. The chil dren all have excellent voices, which have been well trained, and their singing was commented on in highly favorable terms by all present. We are sure that the heart of every humane person in the house must have warmed toward these little children of the world, and offered up a silent petition to to the Father of the - fatherless, for the suc cess and increased usefulness of the institu tion in . the interest of which these repre sentatives are how traveling. TFe hope each one of our citizens will constitute his or her mite to the suppart which the Asylum now stands o much in need of. . . . A Ladies Committee Suggested. We commend the following to the consid eration of our fair readers, who, we feel sure, are willing,indeed anxious.to render any as sistance in their power for the furtherance of the Centennial celebration : Messrs Editors : Were not the women of 1775 equally as patriotic and liberty-loving as their fathers, husbands and brothers ? Judging by what we know of woman's part in the late war, it is safe to say they surpassed the sterner sex in patriot ardor. And are not the ladies of 1875 equally as desirous of com memorating tbe bold Declaration of their forefathers as we who talk so much and do so little ? Ladies usually appreciate a Dec laration as an event of life. (N B. This is a pun.) Joking aside, I think we shall err if we do not call the better half to our assistance in arranging for the approaching Centennial. Let a Ladies' Auxiliary Committee be or ganized to take charge of all matters con nected with the Centennial celebration, that properly come in the proyince of the gentler sex, No one can doubt that if a number of our noble towns-women, Mrs Osborne, Mrs Vance, Mrs Jackson, Mrs Hill, Mrs Dewey, Mrs Wilson, Mrs Johnston, Mrs Young, I and might name a hundred that would associate themselves to obtain the ad vantage of organized action, their assistance would be found invaluable. What say the ladies ? Will they be foremost in this as in every other good work ? SOLOMON. COMMTJHI0ATED..1 Municipal Affairs. ifsssBs. Editors : The nearness of the time for the munici pal election, warns "the citizens of a duty of tbe utmost importance, namely : the selec tion of .good men to govern the affairs of our city during the year ensuing. One m re year has been added to the many gone before, without our being able to record the least important act or improvement on the part of onr city government to which we can re fer with pride or satisfaction. Vain have been the efforts of the few who of late have urged upon the city fathers, improvements of the most absolute necessity. Is it possible that this state of things is to exist always, and that we must continue to suffer from this neglect of our affairs, and have the con tinued mortification of being known as the filthiest and muddiest city in the State ? It is true we have some good and faithful men as Aldermen, who really comprehend the situation and would act to our advantage were it not for others who, having occupa tions or business dependent upon popular favor, shrink from their duties. Jtfessrs Editors. I believe in no man ne glecting his own interests ; but, when he takes an oath as a city officer to guard the best interests of the city, he should do it or resign. Sirs, this matter is fraught with too much importance to allow further delay. .But few persons know the amount of money charged to public improvements. It is far greater than any one dreams of, and yet where the visible results? We nope and trust you will lend your influential aid in exposing this and other abuses and neglects, on th e part of the present administration, believing tbat it will call forth from enlightened sources such Information and experience as may. guide us safely in the future. -.v-u . .
