OBSERVATIONS. The guardian of Ut toml-of Napoleen I., Pierre HendlerXille.d recently I at, the .age of 76 years. He fought under the man whose ashes he guarded for many years.

' A little girl only nine years old has travel led alone from, Farmlngtoa, Minn., to Sears port, Me., her only passport being a letter from a Masonic lodge stating that her fattier was a Mason and she an orphan. Asked how, she got along, she answered, "Everybody I met was a Mason." It is astonishing, says a Washington cor-1 respondent, how many senators are joining the senatorial excursion to Mexico, for their health. Morton roes for the benefit of his paralytic legs; Logan for his longs; Oglesby for his catarrh; ConkUng for his digestion, and Cameron for anything he can pick up loose, from a silver mine to a Mexican seno- rita. The prepared pages lor country newspa pers, known as "patent insldes," sometimes make ridiculous blunders. Not long ago the cable announced the bad news that the Pope has had "another chlil," and shortly after ward came from forty-seven Wisconsin newspapers with patent insldes the an nouncement that "thePopffhas had another child."

His acts for six montns past ga to proV thwj, i is a aangeraua man, and thejreniark of the pourier Journal, that he would liever lfeave the White House except upon a stretcher, mav turn out'to be a prophecy. Grant must be conscious that he has not on ly forfeited the confidence of the vast majority of the American people, but the confidence of. a majority of his own party-Yet, if -one -will observe, Grant is just as zealous for. the inter ests of his party as though he were slill its favorite and trusted leader. The President is known to be a very selfish man and be would not trouble himself abouUhe party he did noi have some hopes of being elected for a third term. The only "possible way in which this could be, effected would be to get upja foreign ,war and . divert the attention of the American people from tyranny at home. It was evi dently the purpose of the adminis tration to get up a" war -with Spain, but the Spanish Government met the demands of this Government in the ."Virainins'4 case so promptly that the attempt proved a failure Yesterday's despatches informed us that bands of I robbers . from the public of Mexico have been commit ting depredations . upon the Texas frontier to such an extent that, if they are not checked, the settlements along the Rio Grande will be altogether bro ken up a3 the people have already Kbon fnrrpil tr leave their homes and s xs v. ; .j . - t. r ,Vt.T coneresate jit' me uiwna wr doicij There is something 'rotten" abou t.ViPft raids. The whole thing looks very much like a "put up" job. It is notorious that nearly all the Indian wars of late years, which have cost the country so much blood and money, were manufactured by men who al ready had or expected to get contracts for furnishing the army with sup plies. These contractors would furnish the Indians with arms, nmnnition, and "fire water," and then, it is alleg- ed, would employ reckless white men to commit outrages and exasperate fc jnto opeu hostility. It has iue y v . ever been charged, that the govern- ment, since it has been in Republican hands, if it has not indeed been a par ty to these infamous intrigues, has at least connived at them. An adminis tration that overlooked such infa mous conduct as this would not hesi tate to embroil the country in a for eign war, in order to secure for itself another lease of power. VV ith its past before us. we cannot but .suspect that the administration has a hand in bringing about these troubles Oil the frnntr j Tt Ja strange that thev should all occur just at this juncture. An administration'tha't has proved so ef ficient in manufacturing Indian wars and Southern outrages, . could easily trump up a plausible casus belli with Mexico.'It would be a godsend to Grant just now. Since writing nthe above we find some sucn suspicions expressed in a leading! editorial in the New York Herald. The Herald says 4The: raids of Mexican freebooters into Texas, reported in our telegraph columns, must not be permitted to pass without remark, because such raids and robberies open to President Grant an easy way for embroiling the country in a foreign war on a plausi bie pretext, it ne things sucn a war would t) remote hia nersonal ohiecta It has been widely suspected for the last eighteen months that if he should find his aspirations for a third term blocked by the failure of his Southern I policy he would precipitate the coun I try into a foreign war and thereby at femnt t.n rllv nnntilar nauinn in hia . r- -"J rr f " Spain have been removed by the re "r1 a Li. 1 ' V L nds that country, having served X?Th.

We ven ture to say that the corre spondent u of the Wilmington Star, who, in discussing the gauge question, sees fit to make some rather discour teous insinuations in regard to j this paper, is himself indebted to the Ob server for the use of its columns, courteously tendered him, through which-to urge measures in the inter est of a corporation of which he is perhaps a representative, . If this sus picion is well founded the writer should remember that the newspaper correspondents of no rival corpora tion made auy discourteous insinua tions about the Observer at that time. The Observer is a self-supporting insti tution and gets its opinions ready made from no railroad grandee, or any body else. We do not profess to be infallible, but whatever we believe is for the -i interest of our section and our patrons we have the independence to advocate it. A newspaper that hesitates to express its honest opin ions, whether right or wrong, through fear of an onslaught ironi the ring smellers" has about as little indepen dence as those owned by some ring. NORFOLK AND OUR NIAL. CENTEN- The celebration of the Mecklenburg Centennial is attracting considerable attention outside of our borders. The Legislatures of Tennessee and Vir ginia and a large mass meeting in Nashville, Tennessee, have taken friendly action in behalf of that great commemoration, and the press m va rious parts of the country has spoken words ot kind encouragement, .bore most among newspaper compliments we must acknowledge the good things so warmly said aim meant bv our neighbors over the Northern line Richmond, Petersbnrg and Norfolk have vied in sympathy with the me mortal The latest of these "erod speeds" of the press is the following from our graceful friend. James Bar Fon Hope, of ihe Norfoid Landmark: Our friends across the border are making grand preparations for the celebration of the '"Mecklenburg Cen tennial." and we feel certain that, with proper organization, this irrand event can be celebrated In a hecoming man ner. At a recent meeting in Jhar- otte some very sensible measures were agreed on, and we are glad to respond to the call of the Committee who ask the "editors of North Caro- ina" to aid in rousing public interet-t in the approaching celebration. ve belong to North Carolina in sympathy and by reason of a large circulation within her borders, and therefore am plify the call of the Committee to ad mit us to aid in the good and noble work which North Carolina has un dertaken to discharge. Among the resolutions adopted by the Executive Committee was one calling on the adies of each city, town, county and neignoornooa to unite in "raising funds in aid of the measure," and we feel certain that with the generosity of their sex they will at once respond. vv ben the lair daughters and noble matrons of the Old North State en gage m tins pious worn, the sons of Carolina will not be slow to aid them, and there is every reason to hope that l : i - i i . . -it , me apurouunuig reieorauon win De worthy the event it is to commemo rate, and the people whose history it adorns. And, feeling as we do, an un- atiected interest in the success of Car olina s Centennial, we beg leave to suggest to our fellow townsmen who claim Carolina as their Mother State, A.1 l. - l 1J1 ? f mat ib wouia oe eminently proper ror iNonoiK to make a special contnbu uon to tne occasion, we are very closely bound to North Carolina by tne ties ot blood, anectiou, and com mon mierest, geograpnicaiiy we are identified with her, and in the knowl edge of these facts we have ventured to ask .Norfolk to show her interest in Carolina's great holiday in a substan tial manner. In thanking our friends outside for all their handsome words and actions. let us resolve that they shall not come to our Centennial and find we have Deen laggards in our own cause. Arouse, every daughter and son, and make good use of the small remain jog time.. Subscription lists haye been started in our bright City of Flowers that must not be returned blanks. Names and amounts, or amounts without names any way so the fund is made up and our duty done.-lrw- mington Star. Noticing the selection of General Johnston as Chief Marshal at the forthcoming Centennial, the Raleigh News says : "We congratnlate our Charlotte friends upon the fitness of the selec tion, for if there is a man in the south capable, since the death of the be loved JL.ee, of drawing to him the at' flections and respect of the Sonthern people, it is Joseph E. Johnston. And he comes among . them, not to rally theni again to deeds of valor, but to lead them on to that great work of peace and restoration, in which to the glory of our Southern Generals, be it said, they are all engaged. They have buried the sword iorever. We'.hope the North ernv people wil be there to see what the Generals who beat back for so many long years the choicest of their leaders, are now do ine, and then they will dismiss from .their minds ttiose terrors ot renewed rebellion .which haunts . them, like shades from- - the battle-fields of the past." '- '' r A Female Lawyer in .the Supreme Court room. a rather ; amusing scene occurred in the Supreme Court room, Washington, the other day which broke in for the :time beiner. upon the quiet and decorum. which is such a marked characteristic- of that tribunal. A certain woman lawyer. who rejoices in the name and titleo Mrs. Belva A. Lockwobd,". was ' admit ted to practice before jthe i court o mis iQistrici. some .lew: months asro Belva has never had a client, but she takes great delight in walking in when the court ia In sessionv lremovine her uuuucb Kaniu uer p,.ace msiae tne bar -wUh the attprneys.tLShe liked the ieenpg oi tnia so wen that she conclu ded that ahe would try It on in the Sh preme.Court. i She selected as a fitting occasion, a day . when the' Supreme Court was hearing an argument on a case from Missouri, in which some woman claimed $20, damages because the election registers refused to 'regis ter her as a voter.: Taking nff hrr bonnet at the door, Belva talked bold- lv In OnT AtlAVih4Arl A ' T - ' oar, wu ere tne Attorney-ieneral Rev erdy Johnson, and other leading lights were sitting, v One of thu 1 Tit AAfltQ n trnrta stopped her and inform eder. that the spectators must take seats outside the bar- She declined to retire, said she was a lawyer, and had as . much busi ness inside as anyone else.. I he alter cation waxed quite warm, distracting the attention of the court: Finally the Marshal had to inform Belva if she did not retire she would - be" put out bodily. This had the 'desired ef fect, and the irate female marched off, vowing vengeance, and muttering what the women would do when they get their rights. v , Tilton Convicted Beecher Cleared. From the Courier-Journal. The case is at length made put against Tilton, and of course he will be nut in for the damages, and must nav Beecher a good round sum When a man does as Bessie Turner swears that he did, he must look to have himself supplanted in his wile's affections. Tilton being proved a scamp, Beecher comes out a saint.; this being a case ot now you see it ana now you don'tchiefly the latter. The public has all along erred in sup- posing mat jxir. ueecner is on tnai. He is not ; it is Tilton. Jiessie lurner has put a spider in Theodore's dump ling, and consequently ne must step down and out! leaving Henry Ward master of the situation. What else could he have exoected? The bedroom scene at Winsted was eneugh to cook his goose. But Bessie s. revelations are conclusive, and glory be to Ply mouth that there was a Bessie Turner to make the pastor an honest man again ! - - . Crape on thf uoon. Dew people give themselves the trouble of inquir ing into the origin of the' custom of placing crape on thedoor of a house where there has been a recent death, and many suppose it is a local custom of recent introduction. It has evi dently had its origin in the ancient heraldic custums of the Anglo-Saxon race, and is as old as thetijaeof Henry I. of England, who reigned from A. 1). 1100 to 1135. Even at that early period hatchments or armorial ensigns were placed in lront ot houses when the nobility and gentry died. These hatchments were of diamond shape, and contained the family arms. ouartered and colored with sable, in such a manner that the spectator at a glance could tell what branch of the family was dead, whether the deceased was young or old, married or single, widow or widower." Evolctiox. Here is a good point for the disciples of Darwin : A Calvert City correspondent of the raducah Aeics tells of a wonderlul freai of nature: ''George T. Jones, one of the first settl rs in the Purchase and now eighty-seven years old, is the owner of a sow that on Tuesday night gave birth to nine pigs, each of which came into existence with a swallow- fork in the right ear and a crop and underbit in the left. This sow is the descendant of a stock of hogs owned by Mr. Jones for sixty-three years, and 1 these pigs have exactly the mark of I their ancestors for that period. This mark was recorded by the clerk for old man Jones at old Wadesboro more than fifty years ago. Old man Jones lives one-half mile from here, and tskes great pleasure in showing this wonderful curiosity to his neighbors and visitors. More than a hundred have been there alreadv." MISCELLANEOUS.
