Mr. lfcNider, the champion laughist of the continent, is in our city for a few days We learn that Mr Mc. has accepted an invi tation to smile a few for us at our Centen nial celebration. A Real Hornets Nest. Wanted, for the Centennial, the largest lonafide Hornets' Nest, minus the hornets, that can be found in the State, to place over the speaker's stand, as an emblem of the Charlotte, of 1775. Fend in your hornets' nest to Mr T W Dewey, Secretary of the Executive Committee. The N. C. Diocese on De Koven. A private letter from Raleigh to one of the editors of the Observer, informs U3 that the Standing Committee of the Episcopal Dio cise of North Carolina, have refused to con firm the appointment of the Bishop of Illi nois, also that twenty-two young ladies of the St. Mary School, were confirmed' last Sunday by Bishop Symons, who preached a very powerful and impressive sermon and the ceremony was beautiful and affecting. A Serious Difficulty. A right serious difficulty occurred, night before last, st Howie & McWhirter's bar room, on college street. It seems a roan named Whitlock, considerably the worse for liquor,, conceived the idea that .was. In-, sulfea by Howlefoue of the proprietors of the saloon and made an attack on Howie with a large pocket knife which, fortunate ly, be could not get open. He struck Howie several blows, however, on the head with it, inflicting some painful wounds which have confined Howie to bis bed, so that he was unable to appear before the Mayor yester day. One Voter Less. A friend writing from Mt. Mourne, Ire dell county, sends us the following item : Kale Byers, a well to do colored man, was going from his work in this neighborhood on Tuesday, seated on the back of a work ox. ' The ox had a chain around his horns, one end of which was being carried by By ers in his hand. The negro got tired carry ing the chain in his hand, and put the end of it around his own neck. The ox took fright, at something, threw the new the ne gro off, and dragged him about a hundred yards oyer a very rocky place. Both were found sometime afterwards, the ox standing still, and the negro perfectly dead, with the chain still around his neck. A L.usus Nature, We are informed that a most remarkable freak of nature has recently occurred, on the site of the burnt dwelling of our towns man, Henry B Williams, Esq. In the cen tre of this burnt spot, has lately burst forth a bold spring of water, which gushes out of the earth in three spouts, as large as a man's arm, and after running in a pelucid stream for twenty, feetsuddenly sinks inter the giound and disappears. A medical friend who drank of this sud denly created spring, tells os the water is as cold as ice and distinctly sulphurous in taste. Those of our citizens who feel a curiosity on this subject should visit this wonderful fountain. One of our public spirited towns man has left at the spring, a cocoanut dipper for the convenience of those who wish to "drink of its water." The above was crowded out of yesterday's paper. communicated . Information Wanted. JIessbs.

" W. OJMMPNICITED. The Ma yeralty. Mesbs. Editobs : ?f Under a recent act of he Legislature the Mayor of the city of Charlotte is invested with increased powers, as will be seen by reference to said act. He is now a judge of the city court for the trial of misdemeanors. This important and "responsible position is of such moment now, asr to demand and re quire the services ofour jiesfc men. It is no longer a sinecure office Tue growth and prosperity of the city demand an intelligent, a wise and economical administration of its affairs. The financial condition of the city is little less than a disgrace to the boasted thrift and enterprise of it. citizens. Let the tax-payers, the property holders and the business men at once arouse themselves to the importance of electing the best meu as Aldermen, and a competent and faithful man as Mayor, and soon its prospects will brighten. The credit of the city is gone, its bills and notes are past die and unpaid, and are hawked about and sold at a ruinous sac rifice. The city consequently can not buy or contract for improvements, except at most extravagant prices.' This should not be so. The property holders and business men of the city are to blame. They have neglect ed to take the interest in- its management they should have done. Consequently its affairs haye been controllfldhy manipulators and wire-workers,;Lveryattajjkinterest-ed in the prosperity of the city for once man ifest some little interest and all will be put to rights. We want no packed conyentions. We want the office to seek the man, rather than tue man tne office. To that end as one of the old citizens of the town, I propose as a gentleman well qualified to fill the office of Mayor, both by his integrity as well as a conscientious regard for the rights of all, the name of ' COL. JOHN E. BROWN. He does not seek the position but I have no doubt will serve the people acceptably if elected. -We do not propose his name for the action of the meeting called for the 3rd of April, as its action is already a foregone conclusion, but for the timely consideration of the property holders, the tax -payers and business men of the city, in fact all who are interested in a good administration of its aflairs, in restoring the credit of the city, rather than breaking it down. Many of whom will not attend night conventions knowing, as a general thing, how they are manipulated. If the suggestion made meets the approbations of those really interested in the city, would be glad to have some ex pression of opinion, through the columns of your wide-awake journal. If a convention of the Conservative party in the day time is thought fit, in order to select a standard bearer, there would certainly be no objec tion, as then the old and infirm could at tend, and in fact the strength of the Conser yative party could and would be represent ed. This suggstion is only made in case there should be any strong opposition among Conservatives, to voting for Col J E Brown for Mayor, on the duy of election, which I do not believe to be the case. An Old Citizen. The Graded Schools In Charlotte. We publish below, an act passed by the recent General .Assembly in regard to the graded school of the City of Charlotte. . It explains itself, and at present we will not dwell on it further than to say that we approve of the proposition it con tains, friend as we are to popular education.
