The postmaster of this city rece'ved a let ter, yesterday morning, authorizing hira to select a more satiable -building for a post office and to report to the post office depart ment. Physicians renort that there is very little sickness here now.. The diphtheria has al most entirely disappeared, and all the sick ness Which now exists here is of a light and unimportant character. The work on the insarance building is progressing finely. The exterior of the buiki ing is very handsome, and it will add im-" mensely to the appearance of that part ofi me town. The streets were so crowded with wagons and people, yesterday about noon, that they were almost impassable There were scores of wagons loaded with wood, standing in and near Independence Square. Six car loads of iron passed through this city, yesterday, via the Carolina Central and Atlantic Tennessee & Ohi. Railroads,.to be used in laying tbe track of the Western North Carolina Bailroad, beyond Old Fort, The gaests of the Central Hotel and the loaiers thereabout, hare been regaled for t past two evenings witn deughuul music, di. coursed by a strolling baud which cer tainly understands its business. Those interested are notified that the dia gram oi the Opera House will'be "open at Phifer's book store on to morrow morning at 7 o clock, when seats cn be reserved for Booth's performance on Tuesday night next. An individual called at one of the drng stores, yesterday afternoon, and asked for "skunk grease." Kobooy knew what he wanted, but be was sent to a lager beer saloon to get some nmDurger cneese, wnicn was considered by the clerk as next best. Capt Whaling has returned home, and re ports his son.who was injured in Richmond last weex, as mucn netter. ins ssull was not fractured, as at first reported, tbe piece of iron with which he wai struck, hay ing glanced off. Mr Homer Barnbeardt. a printer who formerly worked in this city, where he learn ed the bus ness and where he has relatives. made a narrow escape from death, in Con cord, a few days ago, by swallowing iodine through mistake for another medicine. A cknowled rrments.

Street Tb boards fell with a crash, covering abors and wagon which were standing at the time by the side of the store. The horse stood perfectly still until 'the boards were raised off him, and then it was found that neither he nor the vehicle was in any way injured. The Warmth. The weather is warmer than it has been at any previous time this Winter. lst bight, trades-people sat in front of. their stoies as they ; do on Summer nights, and., those in dfbrs only retrained from raising the win dows on account of the heavy winds. .Flan nels were uncomfortable and fire-places and stoves were left unused. Tbe weather it- highly unseasonable, aad the enervating effect which it produces is in striking con trast with the bouyancy brought about by the dry, crisp, bracing air of a week ago, Personal. Gen A H Colquitt, of Georgia, who is prominently mentioned in connection with the next Governorship of bis 8tare, was in the city, yesterday, on business of the South ern Life Insurances Company, of which he is one of the principal officers, and of which Gen Thos F Drayton is the ageDt in this city. E B Drake. Fsq , the veteran editor of tbe Statesville American, was on the streets yes terday . Col James Anderson, the Superintendent of the Charlotte, Columbia & Augusta Rail road, registered last evening at the Central Hotel. liiquid Refreshments. Yesterday afternoon, a servant invaded our sanctum, bearing a waiter, upon which rested wine-glasses, ice, spoons, cork-screw, and, mott prominent of all, a long-necked, heavy-set bottle ot champagne. Work was suspended. A card on the waiter announced that it was from Mr M. O. Teasdaie, to wham the city is indebted for the elegant Commercial Booms, which have recently been established, and which have grown so popular. The champagne was bright, spark ling and exhilarating, and while it was be ing disposed of, thanks were felt if not ut tered, to Mr. Teasdaie, whose thoughtful ness had thus served to lighten the duties of editonrl labor, and had enabled us to spread tne festive board to an appreciative friend who was present, and who worked his share of the demolition. Trouble About a Crossing. A force began, day btfore yesterda3r, to take up the brosd rock crossing over Try on street, in front of the Opera Honse, with the intention of laying it down across the same street, but higher up, in front of the new insarance building. The work was how ever, "in j unci ed" and stopped before more than about one-fourth of the crossing had been taken np. This crossing was made largely by private enterprise, and was for the accommodation of ladies attending the theatre. In the first place, we do not recognize the city's right to hae it moved, and in the second place, as a matter of public convenience it should not be moved if the city bad every right to do so ; for if there ia any one place between Independence Square and the Fair Grounds, where a crossing is more n eded than at any other, it is just where this one now is- A Warulne to Clear Dealers. The Commisioner of Internal Revenue in a letter to 8upervitor Folke, of Boston, re lating to the practice among cigar dealers of pasting caution notices with their own names as proprietors over the cau tion notices originally affixed to the boxes by tbe manufacturers of the cigars in such a manner as to completely hide the same from view says : 'The dealer or any other person woo covers up and conceals tne manufacturer's label by pasting over it a similar one of his own on which be has his own name printed as 'proprietor,' as thor oughly and as effectually removes tbe manu facturer's label as if he washed or scraped it off As caution notice it is removed where It is covered np and concealed, and any per son who thus removes the manufacturer's label from a cigar box renders himself liable for each such removal o a penalty of $50, and yon are hereby instructed to report all cases of this kind to the District Attorney for prosecution. The Case ef the Pineville Constable. In last Saturday's issue of the Obsibvbb, we published a decision of Judge Schenck regarding a case which had "been before Jus tice W F Davidson, of -this city, in which case a warrant issued by the Justice named and made returnable before himself, was re turned by the Pineville Constable befora a Magistrate of that township. Judge Scnenck held that the Constable was indictable , we so published. Yesterday morning we re ceived a communication from M L Wallis, E;q the Magistrate before whom the war rant was returned, in reply to tbe item in Saturday's . Taper , J The : communication wald occupy a column of this paper, and Owing to its great and unnecessary length, and to the further fact that the main charge is not denied,' we are constrained to decline to ' publish it. Tbat the warrant was issued by Justice Davidson and returned be fore Justice Wallis, is admitted. This was the only charge we made in the first In stance. The whys and wherefores alone are set forth in Mr Wallis'-eommunication. He ay Skit ft W Lr5oihiesowe' for the parties litigant to come to Charlotte, and as he thought he could attend to the matter as well as any one else; he ordered his officer to Jttinfe (ha cate befra , him for trial ; that 'arteebearing alJL the tmonj, ihA curt found thai fit was emiryTOean.maBdous thing, and that tie warrant was. false " Tb defendant, he itaiew.as a colored man and not a white man; and that he was peaceable anf 4f wood character. Mr Wallis says, forth, that be-believen that b anderstand tbe people of Pysieviile betterjhan the Charf lotte Magistrates, and thinks tbat the cat freto (fiat t6wrihip sbbdtd betriedatfcdme, ; jTh arejtf com munication, and we tons condense, be lieving that by bo doing we do as fall justice to the subject as we could by publishing the Room Enough. The Wilmington Review ought not get "ashy" because Booth is coming to Char otte instead of Wilmington, and talk about moving its Opera House up here to accom modate the crowd. If brother James wilt come up on the evening of the' 25th twe" will ee to it that he has no rause to' complain of tack of room oh that occasion, even If we have to give him oar seat while, we take a "fence ticket"- that ia, sit'on the steps and listen to tbe music. . ',. .;; Leap Year. .. It is stated that in a work entitled "Court ship, Love, Matrimony," published in 1GGQ, ten years before the death of Shakespeare, is this explanation regarding ladies' privi leges in leap year : . "Albeit, it is now become a part of the common lawe, in regard to social re ations of life, that as often aa every bissextile year doth return, the ladyes have the soloprivil- ge, during tbe time it cuntinaeth, 'of mak ing nnt the men which they doe. either by words or loukes, as to them it seemeth pre ei; and. moreover, no man wiit be entiiled to the beueBt of clergy who dothe - in any wise treat her proposal with slight or con tumely." The Trick of a Cluck. A commercial tourist, who Was in Char lotte a day or two ago, tells how he and several of his brethren tat up in the office of the hotel at Greenyille, S. C, a leiv nights ago, to see tbe clock change at midnight. Mone of them had ever seen it change from one day to another and th( y were wonder fully interested, and began their watch at 8 o'clock in tbe evening, There they sat and sat and talked an.i eytd the clock, waiting for it to change. It struck nine, ten, eleven, twelve, and still it did not change,' and still they sat and eyed it. About twenty-five minutes past twelve, one of the crowd sug gested that they btep into the bar and take drinks, and then came back and wait it till it did change, if it took all nght. The proposition was assented to ; they went in and got their drinks, and returned to the office after an absence of about three min utes, to find that the miserable clock had taken a contemptible, under-handed advan tage of their absence, and ha l changed from Friday to Saturday, while they were goBe from tbe room. It made them so mad that they all got stone blind drunk and didn't go to bed till daylight. The Characters ffho Commit the Crimes. 0n some accounts, it is unfortunate for a town to be a railroad centre. At places where there is a junction of many railroads. there is always a population which is by no means valuable to a community. These are birds of prey and passage. They swoop duwn on the place, stay there till they make a raite" by some means or other, aod then are gone. It is well known tbat much of the crime which is committtd in this community, is by characters who have no 'local habitation" here- They are from tbe four ends of tbe earth, and any kind oi an individual can btop here and find congenial company from almost anywhere. This class come and go, and nobody know where they stay while here, unless it is in that Mecca of all villians, the Five Points, or how they ke out an existence. But we all know that they do live, and know' further that robber ies and swindling by games of chance go on ntinuaily. Tbe great body of the crimes commit1 ed here, cannot be traced to residents bona fidt residents we mean of the place. If these arc involved, it will almost always be found that they have been inveighled by creatures who drop down here, from nobody knows where. The negroes of this community, as a class, have a very wholesome dread of tbe law, and, if not led astray, would do very well. It is difficult, too, to keep up with these paripatetic scoundrels. They move in such a continaal stream tbat they haye no local identity, and the only remedy which can be suggested as a safe-guard against their depredations, is that- the police and other peace o cheers, keep a sharp ee upon all strange and saspicious characters, and arrest them at once They have a distinc tive appearance, and their misdeeds can be guarded against in many instances, if the police will strike at the root of the matter and spot these characters before they have an opportunity to do anything. Gone to W ashlngton. Under a resolution passed by the Board of Aldermen at its meeting on Monday af ternoon and published in the OfcSKayiB of yesterday morning, Col. Wm. Johnston, Mayor of the city, leaves this morning at 5 o'clock, for Washing on City, to exercise his influence with tne members of Congress for the re-establishment of the United States Branch Mint in Charlotte, as a mint of ccinage. He carries with him the reso. lution of the Board Tf Aldermen, on two occasions, regarding the matter, and strong letters from some of the most' prominent citizens of the place There is, of course.' nd doubt that the North "Carolina Senators and Bepresehtatives will exert their" whole iuflaence In. the National Legislature, in behatf of the. re-establishment of the mint here; and CoL-Johnston hayingi personal friends among the Congressmen from, other States, nd having tbe personal friendship of Hon: E. -' H. : Iinderman,' "Direcwr ?of Mints, it is strongly hoped tbat his eflbrts will be crowned with success.

Application was made to these Josfces to have the case transferred tb thecoart of Justice- Davidson, "buf this application " was 'refused, - tbongh ; ' Messrs Davidson and McDonald associated by in vitatioa, with Mchinch and Hilton in -the hearing, of the case.

Messrs McNmch and Hilton, however, com mitted him to jail, he having failed to give bond in the sum of $1,000, at which amount they fixed his bail. . There. were several criminal, cases before the diflerent, Magistrates, during the day, but all of minor fniportan.ee. ICOMMTJNI. ATED Progress of the Chester and Lenoir Rail I'oad The Recent Grave Desecration at Gastonla. Gastohia. N. C-, January 17th, 1876. Messm Editors : , I have concluded to giye you an item or twoof railroad matters. The Chester & Lenoir IS arrow Gauge crosses the Air Line Bailroad one mile from Gas tonla. The Boad is graded from Chester to within one mile of the South Fork of the Catawba riyer, three m les beyond Dallas. The cars areTunniug from Chester to York ville, 22 miles; Capt Fry has the contract frem Yorkville to the Air Line Road, to lay the cross ties and railing. 1U began his work to-day, commencing at the Air Line, and will lay the tiack to Yorkyille. Capt Fry is an energetic man, and will complete it as fast as pots ble. The railing is made at i hattanooga, Tean. Eight car loads have already been received, and about 8 car loads of spikes, bolts and couplings, from Rich mond, Va. One car load of dump cars and flat cars were received to day The engine will be on in a few days A good many lots have been already laid off. and some have purchased and built. This is a very pleas ant locality, and healthy too. A detei tive is ferreting out the grave yard affair, and if an j thing ot interest trac spires, I will inform you of it at the earliest mo ment. I have a certained that there were 3 negroes and 2 white men engaged in it, al most to a 'jcrtainty. Yours, &c. M. M. E. TRIBUTE OF RESSPECT. At a regular meeting of Charlotte Chap ter No. 39, Royal Arch Masons, held at their ball in Masonic Temple, on Friday eVening, January 14th, 1875, the following preamble and resolutions; were, unanimously adopt ed: Whereas, By the inscrutable wisdom of our Supreme Grand High Priest, our vener able companion, Alexander Hamilton Mar tin, who died on the 2Qth day of Nov., in tbe G9th year of bis age, has been translated from his earthly tenement of clay to a house net mad with bands, eternal in the abode of everlasting bliss, Therefore, Be ti Resolved, Tbat we will cherish bis memory with eratefal rememVanct. as one of the oldest landmarks of Freemasonry in Charlotte ; tbat we , will endeavor to prac tice his virtues, and his foibles if any he had we will cover with the broad mantle of Cbatity.
