Merchants and others are already looking forward to the fall trade and anticipating a heavy business. The Republican County Convention meets at the Court House at 12 M., to-day. We shall see what we shall see. 1; A party of colored excursionists were ex pected to arrive in this city on Sunday, from Atlanta, but the excursion proved a failure. In these days when the mercury is push ing one hundred in the shade, you can see the perspiration through the pin-back dresses- - ... .. , i The heat been the only topic of conversa tion for the past few days. The Convention question seems to have been swallowed up by it. V , I We return thaLks to Messrs Walker, Evans & Cogswell, the printers, fur a copy of the proceedings of the first annual meet ing of the South Carolina Press Association. j! We have received from the publishers, a neat and convenient little illustrated book, ;of Summer Excursion Routes, for 1875. It m priced 10 cents, and will be found valua ble to travelers as a guide book. A citizen who was before the Mayor yesterday, for striking a negro woman in the mouth with a ham of meat, has just call' edtoask us to say nothing about it; we won't. In view of the present fearfully hot weather. a costume, consisting of ' a single earment, extending from the neck to the heels, is sug gested by a friend of ours "It seemelh to me there is much reason in his sayings." We acknowledge a polite invitation from Col Geo W Charlotte, manager of the Atlan tic Hotel, at Beaufort, to attend a grand masquerade ball which will be given at the Atlantic on the evening of Wednesday, 28th inst. : Oraugea and Society. It is reported that the appetite for intoxi- eating diinks can be cured by eating an or ange every morning before breakfast tjc change. Now ye rascals, who have been "progikin along oi" John Barleycorn, rush for the orange stands ; fill np with orange juice in stead of corn juice; then show your orange peels at the door and go into "society." Beautiful Slgrht. A more beautiful sight U rarely ever seen than that presented Sunday night by the l'ghtning playing in the heavy banks of clouds gatheredin the northern sky. The clouds were densely black and the vivid ness of the forked fire was rend red all the more vivid by contrast with the surround ing darkness. The eleMr!c fluid was never known to play more beautiful freaks. A MUquotatiou. "Oh, that mine enemy would write a book," is something which is frequently used, both in conversation and writing, as a quotation from the Bible. The orthodox scribe would call attention to the quotation as found in Job, xxxi:35; it is misquoted ninety-nine times out of a hundred : "Oh, that one would hear me ! behold, my desire is, that the Almighty w.uld answer me, and that mine adversary had written a book." The Darkey and the Dog. It was a right funny sight which was wit nessed, yesterday morning at the corner of Trade and Church streets. A little darkey came walking up Church, and just as be rounded the corner, a rat-terrier up and grabs him by tho breeches leg. The little darkey uttered a screech equal to that of a sheet iron cat, and moved an immediate adjournment in the direction from which he had come. The Tax Gathering. MrGouger, the computing officer this . . ... . . i year, has nau me lax oooks in ma posses sion for the past four weeks, and yesterday morning, turned them over to Sheriff Alex ander, who starts out on his annual tax gathering tour, to-day, beginning at Steel Creek. Col Wm Johnston, one of our I nominees for the Convention, will accom pany him, and address the people. Mr Ran son, we believe, will take no active part in the canvass. Col Johnston wilt go the en tire rounds with the Sheriff. FisTYour Crossing.- The Carolina Central Railway Company have made a nice and substantial vehicle and foot way, at the crossing of their track and Trade street. We call upon the North Carolina Railroad authorities to do the same thing. If the Carolina Central can give a good crossing there, of their' road,, why can not the North Carolina Railroad do the same, and why should it not ? Not Captured- The negro who stole a show-case contain ing $53 worth of shoes, from in front of the shoe shop of Mr H J Norris, on Saturday evening between sundown and dark, has never been captured. . This was one or the boldest robberies ever perpetrated in this city. ' - It seems almost incredible that it could have been perpetrated without the thief beingdetected lalbe act.

Rev W M Hunter writes to the Due West Presbyterian, respecting the Associate Re formed Mission in this city! '"We are grow ing, and the demand for books, tracts .pa pers, Ac, is beyond our income, though we take up collections every Sabbath. Forty eight children are enrolled in the Sabbath School. God bless the working women in our Mission Unurch. if we can get on a firm financial basis here, there is a great deal and effectual door open for labor, We need $3,000 to put us on our own ground." . Summer Absentees. M L Wriston, Esq., id White Sulphur Springs, been for two weeks past. at the Greenbrier Virginia, and has Mrs W R Myers is with Col and Miss Pick ett Myers, at the same place. J H Carson, Esq., and two sons, are at Pleasant Gardens, McDowell county. S PAlexander. Esq . is summering at Sar atoga, as usual. Mr and Mrs H C Eccles. who are at pres ent at the Catawba White Sulphur Springs. will leave that place this morning, for Ashe ville. Behind on Geography. Everybody who knows the Honorable Windy Billy Henderson, knows that his stock of knowledge is not near so gieat as bis stock of gab. Not long ago, in conver sation with a friend of ours, he expressed himself as being tired of public lifv, and said he believed that he would retire from it per manently. "However," said he, "this is just from choice, for I know of a consulship which I can get now." He was asked where it was, and replied tl.at ' be had for gotten the name of the place, but it was a city on the Amizon River, near the Dead Sea and close to Berlin." Darr's mule is said to have given a horse laugh when this little j)ke on Windy B. was told to it. Runaway Accident. Yesterday about 1 o'clock, Mr R N Mann, one of the lessees of the Market House, was driving up Trade street, in a buggy, and just before reaching the corner of Tryon, raised an umbrella. This frightened the mule, which was drawing the buggy, and it dashed off at a rapid rate. Turning the corner, the mule kept down in front of the Central Hotel, and just in front of Ken d rick's bar-room gave evidence of an inten tion to take the pavement. He turned sud denly, however, and in doing so upset the buggy and threw its occupant high and dry upon the pavement. Both of his elbows were hurt, and so his back and one of his legs, but his injuries are not serious. The buggy was turned -over on its side but was not damaged. The Temperature Yesterday. After its grand and successful effort to be hot, on Saturday and Sunday, the weather moderated a little, yesterday. . It was quite warm enough, dear knows, but viewed in contrast with Sunday, was almost pleasant at times. A short time before sunset, we were visited by a strong wind, which sent the dust flying in all directions, and this was succeeded by a heavy rain, which con tinued for about an hour, cooling the atmos phere and refreshing everything The night rendered delightfully cool, and was greatly enjoyed after the sweltering, process which We have just experienced. .The range of the thermometer, yesterday, at Burweli's drug store, was as follows, at the hours indicated: At 9 A.

People who confine themselves to vhe main streets of Charlotte, have little idea of the improvements. which are being made in the place, the number of new buildings just completed and now going up, &c For in stance, on Sixth street, between the North Carolina Railroad and B street, Mr W M Matthews has just completed a .nice 'resi dence, MrW M Smith's new, house, close by, has also just been finished, and City Marshal C W Alexander, has a residence in course of erection adjoining the two just mentioned. .... , ; : . . ,:;isu; I, Mr W F Cuthbertson is building , a dwel ling house on C street, between Fifth and Sixth. Col T H Brem has finished four com fortable cottages in the same vicinity; one on the corner of Seventh and ' Myers streets; two on Myers between Seventh ' and Fifth, and a fourth on what would be E street, had that street been extended further in an east erly direction, I , I 'rir.-t V-x Capt T H Allen has the contract to build a fine residence for Thos C Jxak, Esq., of Richmond county, on North Tryon street, next to the -residence of Gen JAi Young. Mr J MXendrick is building two houses on Graham street between Third and Fourth; One of them is finished and the other nearly " Mr7 Thos Wilkinson is" building . on A i Street, between Eighth and Ninth, ..v, Mr John T Butler is building on Hill stn between Tryon and College. PISTOLS AND STICKS l FREE F1GUT BETWEEN CHAR. I.OTTE NEGROES AND ROCK HILL PEOPLE 1 SEVERAL OF THE PARTICIPANTS HURT! Yesterday morning, a train, bearing not fewer than 600 negroes, left this city for an excursion to Rock Hill, S. C. The excur-. sion was under the auspices of Star of Hope Lodge, I. O. G.T., and the different colored Sunday Schools of this city, and J W Gor don and Albert Hershaw were the lessees of the train, The train of five cars, was crowd ed inside, outside and on top, and a lare number were crowded off entirely. Nothing was heard of the excursionists, until about 2 o'clock P. Mn when Capt W W Pegram, the agent of the C, C. & A. R. R , received the following telegram, from A L Taylor, the engineer, of the train, dited at Rock Hill': "Please let me get away from here. They are shooting and rioting. All ready to leave . Answer quicK." Capt Pegram answered, telling him to come, but it was not until near 6 o'clock that the train arrived, and even then so great was the excitement among the excursionists, that it wai with great difficulty and much cross-questioning, that we were enabled to get a statement out of which we could make heads cr tails. A gentleman arrived from Rock Hill on the 8 P. M. train, and from him we learn the particulars of the melee. The train had stop ped but a few moments when fighting and rowing began ; there were several knocks down during the fore part of the day, and in each instance the offender was arrested and put in the lock-up. About half past 2 o'clock in the afternoon, a negro county commis sioner, named Jo Massey, picked a quarrel with one of the excursionists and the two bad a fight. The special police started off to the guard house with him, but released him before getting there. His adversary refused to go at all , and swore that there were cot men enough thereto puthim up, Hisfriends came to his assistance, and in the confusion, a pistol was fired. This was the match which was needed to start the blaze, and in ajmoment there was an indiscriminate firing of pistols, raining of rocks and dealing of blows. Such proportions did the riot soon assume, that the white people of Rock Hill turned out en masse, armed with pistols, and began work, Our informant thinks that not less than 50 shots were fired. The battle raged for twenty minutes, each of the par ties being formed in regular line of battle on the side of the railroad. When the citizens had exhausted all the charges in their pis tols, they went to their homes and returned with shot guns, Winchester rifles, clubs, &c., but by this time the negroes had taken refuge in the train and no further hostilities ensued. Quiet having been restored, the tra'n moved off, and the joyous excursion came to a close. Those from Char otte who were injured, are : Bill Kelly, shot through the left wrist. John Walker, shot in the ankle. Hattie Moore shot through the left hand. One whose name we were not able to learn, shot iq the thigh. A ball grazed the back of Jno Webb's head, and one passed through the shirt bosom of John Kirkpatiick, but did not touch his person. Several, indeed quite a number of the rarty from this city, were knocked down with ttick3 and rocks, and considerably bruised up. From all accounts the skirmish must have been terrific while it lasted, and considering the density of the crowd it is a wonder that none were killed, though many of the negroes scattered when the shooting began. The citizens of Rock Hill who received in j unes, were : Dr' Walker, who had an arm hurt; Mr Ja? Daniels, arm hurt ; Mr FJ Pride, struck on the cheek bone with a rock and considerably cut. There were others who were less seriously in j ured. Our Rock Hill informant tells us that the excursionists were not altogether to blame ; that the principal fault lies with this Jo Massey, who had premeditated the row since Saturday. The gentleman says that when the fight got under good headway, Massey slinked out out and posted off to Yorkville for troops! A warrant was issued for his arrest, and he will be apprehended as soon as possible. No possible blame can be attached to the people of Rock Hill. They were simply de fending their town from a mob, in assisting the authorities to uphold the law. They did no more than the people of any town should do unoer like circumstances. Sunday in Charlotte. Heat is not conducive to growth i n grace and heat we bad, on Sunday. Saturday was hot but Sunday was hotter. It proba bly did not strike everybody as being so, but the mercury ran higher than '. on any previous day this season, reaching 95 in one of the coolest places in the city (Burweli's drug store) at 3 and again at 6 p. m, Why the day did not appear to some as so warm as Saturday, was for the .reason that there was not that amount of running around in the sun which was done on . the before, and then there were ? occasional breezes. But Sunday was intensely hot. To quote from . 1in.l.W. 'that livasl AT or OUT was oppressed by the heat, ine very oust was seer cn ea Drown, anu Bouusuung edin the atmosphere as if the air itself were panting." And so Charlotte, "a fact to be strongly felt and tasted, lay boiling in the sun one day.

Another thing tending to diminish the size of the congregations, was the- absence .of & great, many people from town,' . and this, combined with the beat, lelt tne ministers to nreach to many empty benches.' 'Perhaps the most noticeable feature in any of the services, was a reference made by Rev Dr Miller, of the First Presbyterian Church, to a passage In the sermon of Bishop Gibbons, at the Catholic Church of this city, on the Sunday previous. While reading a chapter, before the sermon, Dr Miller stopped-and spoke of the assertion made by Bishop Gib bons, that the Catholic Church had always been the defender of civil and religious lib erty ; he said that such a speech was an in sult to the intelligence of his congregation, where the Bishop must have supposed an assemblage of simpletons. - . All the ministers in the city, arranged their discourses and very sensibly, with ref erence to .the temperature of the day ; all were shorter than usual, and all the congre gations were dismissed at the same time, as though there were a general understanding. By dark the heat had moderated consider ably, but the prostration produced by the exceeding warmth of the day, kept large numbers at home, and even the evening services were but lightly attended. Later in the evening, : the lightning purified the at mosphere, a stiff breeze sprang up, and by 12 o'clock at night one could sleep in com fort, and wear off the fatigue of that exces sively hot Sunday. . A Source of Inconvenience On Saturday last, several firms in this city had accounts in bankruptcy against McMur ray & Davis, which have to be approved be fore a United Slates Commissioner or a Reg ister in Bankruptcy. They applied to F W Ahrens, Esq., who had recently held the office of U. S. Commissioner for this city, to have the papers approved, and learned from him that he had resigned his office. This reduced them all to the necessity of going over to Salisbury, yesterday morning, to see a Register or Commissioner there, and at a cost which will hardly justify some of them in collecting their accounts. The idea of a town the size of Charlotte not having a Unit ed States Commissioner in it ! communicated.1 Blaud & Simpson Twa Skillful Drs Operations. Charlotte, N. C, July 19, 1875. 1 Messrs Editors: ' I have just uudergone two dental opera tions which I wish to mention in your col umns, by way of returning my thanks to Drs Bland & Simpson, surgeon dentists, of this city. Some three months ago, another dentist, in a effort to kill the nerve of a tooth whith had been giving me some trou ble, poisoned my jaw-bone. I suffered in describable pain for the period of four weeks- only able to sleep under the influence of large doses of morphine and chloroform. About four weeks ago I went to Drs Bland & Simpson Jor relief. They at that. .time took out a piece of the poisoned jaw-bone, in size nearly as large as the end of a man's little finger. I experienced great relief from this, but on Saturday felt the necessity of having another operation performed. These gentlemen extracted still another and a larger piece or tne Done, and I am now entirely relieved. . In my gratitude to Drs Bland & Simpson, I am constrained to take this public man ner of acknowledging it and of recommend ing them, in the most cordial manner, to all who feel the need of any work in their line. They are courteous gentlemen, stilled in their profession and are eminently wortby of patronage. Respectfully, McD. ARLEDGE NEW ADVEariSETIEYTS. A Change.
