Nobody but ladies present. The carver (or caryeress) stalled on the turkey wing, and this was the only incident that occurred to mar the hap piness of the occasion. The keeper of the performing bear was on the streets yesterday morning, his animal performing to a motley throng.

Dr I W Henon was in the city, pn yester day, and reperts having just cut a pistol ball out of the leg of a negro boy living on the place of Mr Robert Grier. in the Steel Creek neighborhood. This negro, another boy and a girl, were all in a kitchen together' Saturday night, talking and running on, the girl handling a pistol. Presently jShe pointed it at one of the boys, when it ex ploded, the ball entering the fleshy' part of hiB leg, j ust below the thigh. There was no intention to do injury, and the girl was not arrested. The wounded negro wasone offthe parties who was injured in the Christmas riot here. He was just recovering from the effects of that wound. Sunday Night Expenses. Last Sunday night was cold no mistake about that and efforts are being made to find out how much wood and coal were burned in the parlors of the city. The young man who was sent out of the back door, between 12 and 1 o'clock, because the front door creaked on its hinges, thinks that he got away with a dollar and fifty cents, worth, while the young man who stood by himself at the door of the ball room, during the leap year party and smiled languidly and tried to think he was having a good time, says he can see this one's $1.50 and go him fifty better. Confessions from the others are now in order. 30 for a Turkey. A friend tells us of how a negro in a neigh boring county, made his living for about two months off of one turkey. He stole it from Mr A, then sold it to Mr B ; stole it from B and sold it to C ; stole it from C and sold it to D, and so on and so on through the whole neighborhood, till he had made about $30 from the sale of this one turkey, when, concluding that it had done him about all the good he could reasonably ex pect of it, the darkey carried it back to the house of Mr A, from whom he had origin ally stolen it, set it down in his yard and walked off. with a feeling of honesty which was hardly warranted by the circumstances of the case. Open Air Religious Meeting. A novel and interesting religious meeting was held in this city last night. About 9 o'clock, several members of the Young Men's Christian Association assembled on a corner of Trade and Tryon streets, and, mounting a box, talked and prayed by turn. A large crowd soon assembled, drawn together by the novelty of the proceeding. The meeting was opened by Rev W M Hunter, and ad dresses were delivered and prayers offered by nim, by Rev J F Butt, Mr Coleman, Mr A Shorter Caldwell, and othes. The meet ing continued for perhaps three-quarters of an hour, and during this time the audience was respectful and attentive. Those who gathered around were exhorted to newness of life, and the meeting was in all respects similar to those which are constantly held in the large cities by the Young Men's Chris tian Associations. The exercises closed by the singing of the long metre doxology. The King's English in the Mayor's Court. In the book called ' Alamance," we are told of a character "who occasionally made a foray into the domain of learning and cap tured a big word, an d who was very fond of parading his captive on all occasions, with out any regard to the propriety or impro priety of introducing it at a given place." Giles Willis, colored, who testified in a case before the Mayor's Court, yesterday morn ing, is this sort of a man, except that he simply goes into his head for the big word, leaving the domain of learning alone. "The whole intigation," said Giles, assum ing a theatrical attitude, "started from me ; and I tell you his language was very in flame." Then he paused and thought ; ''in flame" was a very good word, but he found a better ; "I mean to say," he continued, correcting himself, "was very meb anions in deed," Then the witness threw his head on one side and smiled sweetly, and the court smiled and said "$3 and cost" to the prison er, and Giles smiled again, for he knew that "mehanloua'? had done the work, and he felt proud and went so far as to smile a third time. r. - - ' ", 1 Cases la the Saprtme Court.

Mr Daly could -not af ford, on account of hk own name as a grefei theatrical manager to come upon a tour with' a poor troupe, and his name is, to our mind, sufficient guarantee if there were no other, of the excellence of the company. ;i Bu there Is abundant proof that the troupe is one em. j bracing an unusual amount of talent and the magnificent costumes, soenery and stage effects which it brings with it, will conduce, no little to the interest of the performance. No play, not even the "Two OrphanSjt! has Had such a run in New York City since its first production; yet the two cannot at all; be compared, since they are totally different: The "Two Orphans": depends Upon its pathos for its chief interest, while the "Big Bonanza" takes by reason of -the vien of. broad humor which runs through it. '; It has excited' unbounded enthusiasm wherever produced; and we 'cannot beieye that oh this occasion our people will prove less ap preciative than they have been in the past. We would be glad to seethe Opera House crowded to-night. No one who goes will regret it. The Churches on Sunday, Last Sunday was one of the most winter like days we have had this season. True, the eud was out, bright and beautiful, but the mercury was way down yonder, and the wind blew almost a gale, and everything conspired to briDg Old Winter to the front, with all his frigidity. While the biting blasts no doubt kept many at home, there were many still who were not deterred from church by them, and the sanctuaries had about their usual complement of worship pers. There were services in sll the church es except the Lutheran, and in all, the ser mons were by their respective pastors, ex cept at the Second Presbyterian where that venerable and esteemed divine, Rey Drury Lacy, D. D., of Raleigh, officiated in the morning. Though so feeble that he was forced to deliver parts of his sermon while in a Bitting posture, he gave evidence of the retention of much of the fire and eloquence which marked him as a powerful pulpit orator in his younger days. His sermon was clear, logical and forcible, abounding in flights of true eloquence, and was deliver ed in a highly impressive manner. He was listened to with attention by the entire con gregation. The pastor of the church preach ed at night, Dr Lacy's feebleness not per mitting him to again officiate. In all the other churches, the services were after the usual order. Valuable Gold Deposits. On yesterday, Mr Cyrus Wolfe brought to our office, a phial containing 110 penny weights of gold, which was taken out of a branch on the place of Mr Tretenick, five miles south-east of Charlotte, oh the Caro lina Central &aioad; in Sharon Township. Since last May lO'cargoes of this ore has been sent to Philadelphia, and the result haye been about $1,000 clear profit to Mr Tretenick, since that time, when the first installment was sent. Mr Wolfe himself has had the superintendence of this work, and reports that he has done no underground work, but has found all of this gold on the surface. This property joins that of Mr Wolfe, and he expects to find gold on his own land. In this connection we will mention a valu able yein or .a yein which now promises to be valuable which was found last week on the lands of Mr C J Lineberger in Gas ton county. About 20 years ago, Mr L was engaged in mining operations, and a few days ago the old shaft caved in, revealing a fine gold yein within two feet of where the shaft had been sunk years ago.. Specimens of this ore have been found to ' yield from $10 to $20 per bushel, and so positive is Mr Lineberger that he has found a "big bonan za," that he has sent North for an experienc ed miner toexamine the place. If the re sult of his investigations are satisfactory, machinery will be put up at once and steps taken to ascertain the extent and value of the vein. ' Marriages in January.

" Sa atebed a Palfc f Sheet nd Ran; 1 -.A negro who, as was afterwards' ascertain ed, lives somewhere over in South Oarolina, went into the shoe store of Messrs Sample. I yuexanaer x . yo , ..last evening . about i o'clock. and asked to look at some shoes. He professed to be ' examining these, when he' suddenly snatched up a pair of gaiters awr ran. Mr John MCAiexanaer w'waIt- eat eut in pursuit of him. He followed the negro dowa Tryon ; street, below the Opera .House, when he lost sight of him. -Return' ing, he informed the police of the occanence; f- and officers Healy and Orr started on the hunt ot the negro. . After aearching all around the depots, they went in the Five Points, where they found " him "with the gaiters. He was conveyed to the jug, for safekeeping until the Mayor's Court con venes this morning.. i-S : : -t-i -c - ; ; r The Police and the Bear and the Bear's Keepers. ' Welli they dtd haye a time of it, yesterday the police and the bear" and the bear's keepers. .Early in the morning, the City Marshal sent word to the , men that if they didn't, take that; thing .off .the streets, he would put 'em up. - They went into;the out skirts, and made him perform. Now it seems that the bear is in the . habit of expecting something to eat at every place which he visits. And down at Mr Murray's they didn't give him anything never thought of it probably and the bear got powerful mad; just ripped around there and clawed the shrubbery and embraced trees, and took on till one of the children' was scared almost into convulsions. Then somebody down in that neighborhood sent for the police, an d the police went. Officer Stephens took charge of the men, and officer McKee of the bear. But the men being Italians couldn't be made to understand anything more than the bear, and so the whole posse came up street (Major McKee leading the bear), and stopped in front of the calaboose. They were about to put the bear in, when out ' hopped Sam Wutkins, a great big darkey, scared till he was almost white, and swearing that there wasn't room enough in town, much less in that calaboose, for both him and that bear. Major McKee let go his hold on the bear to catch Sam, and Mr Stephens let the men go to catch the.bear. And then they had it around there, to the infinite delight of the natives, and very much to the consternation of the keepers of the bear. Finally, how ever, they fixed it all up among themselves, and the bear men bear and all agreed to leave town if they were given their liberty. "Bring in another" bear ! "Justice" in the Democrat. Mr Caldwell, the local editor of the Ob sebvbb, tells us that he thinks a communi cation in our last week's issue unjustly and unfairly reflects on him in regard to what he has felt it his duty to sometimes say about Railroad management. When we consent ed to publish the article we did not think it referred to any one particularly, but after reading it when too late to withdraw it from our columns we discovered that it indulged in insinuation which we do not endorse or approve,' and we do not hesitate to say that we regret that we pub lished it We write, this paragraph without Mr Caldwell's knowledge, and because we think it due ourself to state that we haye never knowingly indulged in insinuations against another editor or publisher nor per mitted correspondents to do so ; and while we do not think our correspondent intend ed to reflect on Mr Caldwell or any other particular person, we consider his language improper, and, we repeat, we regret its publi cation in our columns, and especially do we regret that a brother editor should feel that it treated him unfairly. Democrat, of yester day. The city editor of the ' Observes thanks tbe editor of the Democrat for his disclaimer; it is amply satisfactory so far as Mr Yates is concerned The writer of the communica tion signed . "Justice," published in the Democrat of last weak, without attempting to controvert a single position which we had taken in regard toany railroad, indulged in a series ofinuendoes and underhanded flings which were untrue, unjust and unfair. Hid ing his identity behind a nom it plume, he sallies forth ;to stab by insinuation, and takes still further precaution to conceal himself by refusing to allow the edi tor of the .'paper in which he publishes his unmanly assaults, to reveal bis name to the injured party. Such conduct is con temptible, and we do not hesitate to say so- , COMltUHICATID. Public Meeting;. According to public notice, a large and en thusiastic meeting of tax payers of Long Creek and adjoining Townships, was held at the 5 mile post, on the Beattie's Ford road, on Saturday the 29th nit., and was or ganized by calling Wm M Swing , to the chair, and requesting Wm P little to act as Secretary i,, .
