This is the name of a paper the first num

friend Nick Johnson'. As its name wc old
imply, it is published in the interest of the
Greut Atlantic Coast Line. Ther lace or publi
cation isCharleton,S.C..and Matt O'Brien
the irrepressible Matt is its conductor.
ABide from its railroad matter, it is an in-1

will no doubt redound to the benefit of tbe

Chnd Seriously Burned.
Mrl H Foust, p this city, informs us thai
m litue daoghter of his unele. Mr Thos G
youst, who lives neav (Graham, Alamance
county, was seriously if 'net fatally burned
one day-this week. In the absenei f any
one else from the room, the child's clothing
took fire and it ran into the yard - where it
was met by some one who extinguished the
flames, but not before nearly all the clothing
had been burnlfira the little victim, and
its flesh badly burned. , The child is four or
fire years of age.
The Central Hotel Gas Burning-.
Mr Linton, the Superintendent of the
Charlotte Gas Works, tells us that, in say
ing tnat the Central Hotel burns more gas
than the whole of .the town of Salisbury,
we went a little too far. The hotel proper
does not, but if we had said that as much
gas is consumed in the hold building, as1 in
L Salisbury, we would not have mistated the
matter. Walter Jsrem A Martin a hardware

Superior Court.
This tribunal was engaged all day yester
day upon the civil issue docket, and ten or
twelve eases were disposed-.- in. different
ways. There was only one jury trial; that
of A A 8tewart vs. 8 P Alexander, and the
jury hung on this. The jury was discharged
yesterday. This morning the motion dock
et will be taken up.
During Court, C F Goddard, tbe white
man who was convicted last week of assault
with intent to commit rape npon .a colored
girl in this city, was sentenced to serve a
term of 5 years in the Penitentiary for the
offence.
Christmas Tnrkeys.
On yesterday Messrs T Coleman dt Son
and S P Watkins & Co., received a drove of
300 fine tnrkeys from Buncombe county,
just in time for the Christmas holidays.
They were paraded through the streets and
attracted a great deal of attention. Some
Of them are splendid fellows, just the right
size for Christmas dinner, and are fat
enough even now to be appropriated to that
use. These tnrkeys are for sale at low
prices at the store of T Coleman A Son, on
College street, and those wantirfg one would
do well to call early.

The Berger Concert Troepe. - .
To-nigbt this charming company will give
us an entertainment. They are great fayor
ites'here, and their coming is always looked
fur with interest. They are strengthened
this season by several new performers, and
there is now more talent in the combination
than there ever was before. It is worth the
money to go there just to see Anna Berger
or Sol Smith Russell, if we may speak of
two persons together who appear so totally
unlike on the stage. . We give tbe assurance,
if any is necessary, that those who go to the
Opera House to-night will be more than re
paid. The following notice of tbe company
is from the Augusta Chronicle and Senti
nel, of the 21st ult:
An entertainment, composed of good mu
sic and genuine humor, would hardly fail to
please in any community witn tbe smallest
K intensions to cultivated taste. Augusta
as the reputation of being more than or
dinary y fastidious in this respect, hence the
. 1 i L c 1 - 1
approuauon vi tnuso 01 uci uuuui wnu at
tend performances at the Opera House is a
very fair indication of merit. This being
the case, the Bergers cannot but be gratified
at the reception they have received. The
company is unexceptionally meritorious. Its
principal members are possessed of talent of
a superior degree, ana mere are none wno
can be classed as mediocre. M us Anna Ber
ger is fine musician on the cornet and vio
lin, and a charming yocalist. Miss Anna
.Morgan bas a remarkably sweet soprano
Voice, which she, uses witn skill and judg
ment. Her rendition of favorite ballads
went to the h arts of the audience, and se
cured for her hearty and well deserved ap
plause. One of the most artistic and skill
ful musicians in the corn Dan v isM'lle KUi-
sy. Her performance on tne vioienceiiowas
a masterpiece, sot omixn liutsen is mm
self; we can hardly say more. Mr Busnell
is undoubtedly tbe greatest of living hu
morists and delineators of character. Hia
I representations are inimitable. Successive
presentations but develop new . team res 01
wit and humor.
The Opera Hoese Xiast Evening.
About as appreciative an ! audience as
Charlotte can afford, assembled at the Opera
House last evening, to greet Adelaide Phil
lipps and her Italian Opera Troupe upon its
first appeaxacce in this city. , . Though the
crowd was. infinitely smaller than the talent
ef the company called for, we do not remem

Barber of Seville,'' tbey certainly did. They
could not have done otherwise. The music
was simply grand, far .surpassing any thin
that oar people have ever . before had , tfcgt
privilege of hearing. It was entirely above
criticism. The melody that burst : from the
Hps of Tom Karl as Count Almayira, was
thrilling at times. ' Signor Carpi as Figaro,
the barber, left nothing to be desired this
singing showed the highest natural gifts as'
well as the most thorough .cultivation of
voice, and his acting was as perfect as his
I singing. It is. dououui, tnougn, 11 tnose

Dr Hill to that effect, and; asked me to
a petition for?Williams? pardon. I dee
to do. anything. Afterwards .Gov, Holdeh
urged one in a personal interview, to. sign a
petition for Williams, and stated to me that
Vflliams was declining, that he had married
a neice or grand-daughter of Judge Potter,
that his wife had come to Raleigh to be
near her husband and had died in a kitchen, '
that Williams would leave the State imme
diately if pardoned. Under all these cir
cumstances ' I : agreed to consider the .mat-,
ter. -' ,:,'"" 1
In a short time I received a. letter from
Gov Holden urging me to act. , I then wrptje'
to Gov Holden, stating that for the sake of
humanity, I woulrcohsent to Williams'
pardon, and" ncl5sed"him aT Ielter7(ifJmi5
tafee net) to Gov.Brogdext jtaliag that the
pardon of tWilUarns would meet? my ap
proval.: r7 " ; " r ;;; v - ? .t-
So it seems Gov Brogden makes it an in
variable rule to act in opposition to the
Solicitor. He pardons negroe who steal
''second hand" shoes, when the Solicitor
does not approve it, and when a poor white
men who steals ' new boots," is represented
to be in a dying condition, and the Solicitor
approves of the pardon, the Governor will
not pardon. His Excellency seems deter
mined to be perverse.
Very Respectfully,
W J MONTGOMERY.
