Delinquents.
We are daily striking off from our sub
scription books, the names of subscribers
who have not paid up, and some of them
are the best men in the ciiy. We dislike to
do this, but business is business, and we are
not publishing a paper for gratuitous dis
tribution. Got Hold of the Wrong One.
Day before yesterday, a colored man in
this city was trying to get a strange dog
from under his house, by chunking him
with rocks and punching him with sticks.
The howling of the intruding brute attract,
ed a neighbor's dog, which came bouncing
into the yard with all his might, land in his
zeal to set things straight, seized the man by
the leg and bit him twice before the situa
tion could be explained to him.
St. Margaret' Day.
Day before yesterday was "St. Margaret's
Day" In the Church calendar. St. Margaret
was one of the most popular saints in Eng
land, no less than 238 English churches
being dedicated to her. She was the daugh
ter of a pagan priest at Antioch, but was
educated as a Christian. ' She refused to
marry a Roman governor, and in conse
quence was exposed to the most dreadful
tortures, and at last beheaded A. D. 278.
University of North Carolina. T
We take great pleasure in calling the at
tention of the public to the advertisement
of this Institution, to be found in our col
umns this morning. The exercises will be
renewed on the 1st Monday in September.
The buildings have all been repainted. ' The
courses of study are very thorough and com
plete, fully up to the standard . of those in
the very best colleges and universities in the
South.
A Dog ' '"
Attempted to bite a young gentleman on
the street, yesterday morning; when the
young man seized a plank and.knocked him
lifeless for awhile. The dog is a pet in the
familv of Mr James Harty, and was doctor-
ed up until he got well. Charlotte is now
in that state when there is almost nothing
to cause a variation of the monotony, and
this little incident soon drew a ciowd
to the scene. X'H , ! ',

Diaeardlnff the Pin-Back.
We understand from a young gentleman
who Is just from the Catawba White 8ul
phur Springs, that the young lady visitors at
that resort, have , discarded . the pin-oacK
style to a great extent, since reaching the
rural districts. Catawba, consequently, aoes
not present "so many ' attractions , to the
i young men, and they arel leaving for the
towns and cities.
Struck With Plan.'
A negro drayman was 'driying along .: the
streets, when one of the planks that serves
as a side-board, 1 standing up against the
standard, worked back and dropped with
one end on the ground. f 'lh causeu tne
other end to fly up, and, reversing ends the
fly u? weniDg ends, the
plank struct the negro fairly in the back of
the head. It seemed to hurt him no more,
however, than it did the bosom of the earth

It Was Ilia Maiden Name.
The other day : a negro man came into
this office to subscribe for the Obskbvkr, and
gave bis name as.Pethel. The book-keeper
told him that, he was under the impres
sion that his name was so-and-so.
"Yea.' responded the darkey, "that was my
maiden name, but yon see my wife was a
Pethel !" This was a clincher, and he was
accordingly booked as Pethel.
Committed to Jail.
Allen Dayis, the negio who attempted to
perpetrate a theft at the store of Messrs J A
Young & Son, on Tuesday night, was iu tin
Mayor's Court yesterday morning, and was
committed to jail in default of bail in $200
He is the same negro who was jailed on
Sunday evening, charged with having stolen
a show case and shoes from Mr H J Norris,
and released on Monday for lack of evidence
against him.
Supreme Court Decisions.
The Supreme Court, on Tuesday rendered
decisions in the following cases frcm this
section of the State :
By Bynum, J: E L Sherrill vs. Martha
Sherrill, et. al., from Catawba ; judgment ai
firmed. By Pearson, ?. J : State vs Thomas Glad
den, from Cleavcland. Error. Venire de novo;
Mary B Day v George Howard, el. al., from
Edgecombe. Eiror and reversed. Judgment,
for plaintiff according to case agreed.
The Tax Gathering at Collins' Store.
Yesterday was tax collecting day in Berry
hill Township, and quite a large crowd gath
ered at Collins' store. Col Johnston was
rrcfccntand made a speech. - Dr Kerr was
there also, and spoke, saying among other
things that be was an old-time Republican,
of the time of 1775, He is regularly on the
track for Convention. We understand that
there is not a white Radical in this town
ship now. There was one last year, but he
moved away.
Hun the Whole Length.
Beginning with to-day, the conductors on
the Carolina Central Railroad will hence
forth run the whole length of the road from
Wilmington to Buffalo, having a lay over at
each end. Hitherto the conductors on the
Eastern Division have laid over at Charlotte
and Wilmington, and Mr Finch, who was
the conductor on the Western Division, ran
only between Charlotte and Buffalo. He
now takes his chances with the other con
ductors, and makes the through trip. In
short, the two divisions of the road have
been consolidated.
Row in Five Points.
There was another row in the Five Points
last night about 10 o'clock. A crowd had
gathered at the house of Alfred Lander for
a dance, when a difficulty sprang up. Lan
der states that he was shot at by a railroad
hand who had just come, and that three
others drew knives on him. The police ar
rested only one of the offeaders, Henry
Tomlin, and he was taken Ho the guard
bouse. The affair drew quite a crowd to the
Five Points, in addition to the usual deni
zens.of that sweet-scented locality.
Disaffected or What t
Neither Dr Wm Sloan nor Col C J Cowles,
attended the meeting on Tuesday, of the
ami Convention ists. Be those bretluen
lukewarm in the cause ? Messrs CI Fraz
ier and H B Peters, who haye in times past,
done a great deal of work for "the party of
great moral ideas," neither one will support
the ticket put out; but why are the two gen
tlemen first named so silent, when' there is
so mnch danger of our being 'landed on a
troubled sea,"and when this may be the"last
chance the poor white men and negroes will
ever have to vote V
Greasy Sam Watts.
Has forwarded an inquiry to this city ,if he
must come to fulfill his appointment here ?
He apprehended that no Republican ticket
would be put out in this county, and if
there was none, His Greasiness thinks "he
could do more good elsewhere." By all
all means let him come. We want the peo
ple of Mecklenburg to see him and to real
ize that it was the present Constitution
which caused the elevation to the judgeship.
of one who has no more regard for the dig
nity of his ofllce, than to descend from the
bench and enter the political arena stripped
and girded for the fight.
The Sumac Season.
The season has commenced for the gather
ing of sumac in the surroundings country,
and for two or three months there-will be
no lack of work for the small colored folks
who want to turn an honest penny. There
are hundreds of children in this city who
might make quite a handsome thing of it
by going to the country to -gather sumac.
In the neighboring town of Statesvilhv
much money is paid out every year for
sumac and every other description of roots
and herbs which can be utilized for medical
or other purposes. Messrs Wallace & Bros '.
haye a large botanical warehouse there, from
which they ship- large' quantities of these
wild growths to which; nntil - recently, no
attention has been paid. This is a source
of no inconsiderable 'revenue to Iredell
county, and we wish" that Charlotte had a
similar establishment.
The Republican nominees.
It is not known what course will be pur
sued by Col W B. Myers, with reference to
the nomination which was tendered him on
Tuesday, by the Radical Convention in this
city. He is absent at the Virginia (White
Sulphur Springs, and has been written to by
Gen Barringer to kniw whether or not he
Will accept the nomination. " Oar opinion,'
made 'up from conversations with , Col
Myeis .friends, both personal and political,
is, that he will decline., Just .tefore leaving;
he announced positively, on more than one
occasion,- that he would not run, - and we
have little idea that the action of that meet
ing on Tuesday will J weigh' enough with
him' to : induce him to : change his mind.
.. Dr Kerr.' however.will run.if it makes him
sick !. He aways ' runs',' and t would , rery
probably "haye run even if he hadn't been
nominated. Fortunately though, ; bis , run

yesterday, a stick which had the- following

to be exhibited on r the centennial celebra
tion of the battle in which it played such a
canspicuous part.
Fell in a Fainting Fit.
Last night Mr. J. Riley Davidson
was standing at the corner of Bur well's
drugstore, in conversation with Dr.
J. M. Miller, when he suddenly fainted,
and before Dr. M. could catch him,
fell to the pavement. He recovered
in a few moments and walked home.

Almost Irowned in a Tab.
Yesterday afternoon, a little child
of Mr. J. E. Cassidy, who lives on the
corner of Ninth and College streets,
came near losing its life under the
following circumstances : The child,
which is about two years old, was out
in the yard at play, v hile Mrs. Cassi
dy was in the house newing on a ma
chine. Having occasion to send a
girl up street, she went out to look j
for her ard it was then that she no
ticed the absence of the child from
where she had seen it playing a few
moments before. Looking all around
she coald see it nowhere, when it oc
curred to her to look in a large tub
which was standing in the yard. She
did so, and saw the child lying in the
bottom completely covered over by
the water. Mrs. Cassidy caught it up
and ran in the house with it, where
she worked with it and applied to it
what restoratives were at hand. For
some time it gave no evidence of life,
hut after awhilo began to gasp, and
by the time Dr. Jo. Graham, who was
sent for, had arrived, the recovery was
complete.
The tub into which the child had
fallen, was formed of a half barrel,
and was about half full of water. The
escape was a very narrow one, for if
the little "creature had remained in
the water a momentlonger, life would
have been quite extinct.
Midsaauaer Fashions.
For the benefit of our lady readers, we
compile the following notes from some of
our fashion exchanges :
The novelty is belts is the gros grain rib
bon, more than two inches wide, and worn at
the waist, to fastea ia front on the left side
in a bow, with loops and ends reaching
nearly or quite to the knee.
Undressed kid glove3 retain their old fa
vor and are much used, not only in travel
ing but for country and street wear. Cotton
gloyes. for extreme warm weather, come
with kid-finish backs and two or three but
tons. For indoors, beautiful waists and over-
skirts are made of lace and insertings, (usu
ally white,! designated to be worn over silk
and velvet long skirts, while, if the wearer
is possessed of fair neck and arms, a , low
bodice, without sleeves and edged with
handsome lace, is worn as an underwaist.
Hats of English straw are' much more
serviceable than those of chip, and are con
sequently accepted as most suitable for trav
eling, and are pretentiously trimmed.
The light, airy dresses of organdy, linen
lawn, and other translucent textures, are
fast being abandoned because of the impos
sibility of that crisp freshness which consti
tutes their chief attractivfcness.
Traveling dresses are s almost it variably
made in three pieces, consisting - of a plain
draped and finished on the edges, like the
basque, with a piping, a crimped fringe or
other equally simple trimming, and an
overakirt sufficiently- short to escape the
ground in walking, and sparsely ornament
ed. The favorite color Is brown. '
Broad-heeled shoes, haying a tendency to
square rather than round toes, furnish the
favorite walking boot, and a half-low tie Is
also admissible. Colored stockings are mor e
in vogue than - ever, and come both plain
and striped.' , The: former art the later of the
two, and show the new red,; for which there
are such a furore.; After the silk hose, the
most expensive as well as, the handsomest
are the Lisle thread, and many pf them bear
the old-fashioned clocked instep and ankles-

DR A W ALEXANDER
The Hinth of April, 1885.
From the London Spectator.
It is a Nation's death-cry '.
the agony
is past ;
The stoutest race that ever fought, to-day
hath fought its last.
Ay : start and shudder ; Well thou inay'st !
Well veil their weeping eyes !
Englaud, may God forgive thy past ; Man
cannot but despise.
Yes, shudder at that cry that speaks the
South's supreme despair ;
Thou that could'st save and saved'st not ;
that could'st and did'st not dare I
Thou that hadst might to aid the right and
heart to brook the wrong ;
Weak words to comfort for the weak ; strong
hands to help the strong !
That land, the garden of thy wealth, one
haggard waste appears,
The ashes of her sunny homes are slacked
with patient tears.
Tears for the slain who died in vain for free
dom on the field ;
Tears, tears of bitter anguish still ibr those
that lived to yield.
The cannon cf his country pealed brave
Stuart's funeral knell ;
Her soldiers' cheers rang in his ears as Stone
wall Jackson fell.
Onward o'er gallant Ash by 's grave swept
War's triumphant tide.
And Southern hopes were living yet, when
Polk and Morgan died.
But he the leader, on whose word these cap
tains loved to wait,
The noblest, bravest, best of all, hath found
a harder fate ;
Unscathed by shot and steel, he passed
through many a desperate field ;
Oh ! God that he hath lived so long, and
only lived to yield !
Along the war-worn waste' ranks that lov
ed him to the last,
With saddened face and weary pace the van
ished chieftain passed.
Their own hard lot to the men forfot ; they
felt what his must be ;
What thoughts in that dark hour roust
wring the heait of General Lee.
The manly cheek with tears was wet, the
stately head was bowed.
As breaking from their shattered ranks
around his Bteed they crowd.
I did my best for you," 'twas all those
ouivering lins could ray :
Ah. happy those whom death hath spared
tbe anguisb or mat aay.
Weep on, Virginia! Weep.the lives given to
tbv cause in vain :
The sons who live to wear once rnore the
Union's calling chain :
The homes whose light is quenched for ay ;
the graves without a stone ;
The folded flag, tbe broken sword, the hope
forever flown.
Yet raise thv bead fair land ! thy dead died
bravelv for the right :
The folded flag is stainless Etill, the broken
8 word is bright.
No blot is on thy recoid found ; no treason
soils thv fame :
Weep thou thy dead : with covered head
we mourn onr England ssname i
