The Air-Line Railroad is reducing its force, cutting off hands all around March has made a very bad start. Yester day was one of the nrost dismal looking clays of the season. W S Ball, Esq., the editor of the Greens boro New North Slate, arrived at the Central Hotel last evening. Gloom, rain and some sunshine, yester day. Last evening, rain again ; at night clouds, heayy fog, and a damp, chilly and unpleasant atmosphere. That "little bill" again now ; and the genial collector may smile and smile, but he can't do away with the desire which is lurking in the bosom of the dunned man, to kill him. The fellow Smith, who stole a hat from Moyer's store some time ago, and never de nied it until yesterday, argued his own case before the jury in the Superior Couit, and was acquitted ! He is fromOdesa, Delaware. Freights are yery light, at present, on the railroads. On the North Carolina Railroad, more is coming in than going out, which is very unusual at this season. Very little cot ton is going North. Newsom, who was to have been tried for fraud before Probate Judge Erwin, last evening gave a justified bond, on yesterday, in $500, and was released, Allen Newson and A H Newsom becoming his sureties. Col John L. Brown, Trustee, gives notice to the debtors to the late firm of McMurray & Davis, that on Monday next, the 6th inst. he will proceed according to law, to collect the claims. The meeting of the Democratic County Executive Committee, was not held yester day in consequence of the non-attendance of many of the members. A meeting will be called by the Chairman for another day. not far distant. Change ou the Carolina Central. A telegram received last night from Col S L Fremont, states that henceforth the night trains on the Carolina Central Railroad, will make but three trips ner week, arriving in and leaving Charlotte by the present sched ule, on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays, Turned Out. A very drunk white man who was found in College street at a late hour on T uesday night, and put in the lock-up, was released yesteiday morning. He had a gash in his face, and says it wa3 given him by a negro but he was unable to give any details of the occurrence, and it is probable tha"' he re ceived it by a fall. Hard Running, Capt Finch had a mighty severe run the first day and night of bis transfer from the Western to the Eastern Division of the Caro lina CentraK He ran up to Shelby yester day morning, back here in the afternoon, then straight through to Wilmington, mak ing a trip of 295 miles, consuming about 30 hours, without rest or sleep. Displays of Superior Knowledge. Last Sunday morning "elicit" was put by the compositor for "illicit" in the head line of one of our items. It was marked in the proof sheet bat overlooked. The word was properly used, however, in the body of the article, but notwithstanding this, every journalistic "smarty" whohappens to know the difference between "elicit" and "illicit," is airing his overwhelming knowledge be fore the public. Why He Hadn't Been Employed. Jo Johnston, colored, (what's in a name?) was before the Judge, yesterday, to be sen tenced. "Where are you from ?" was asked by His Honor. "Hanover county, Virgin ia," replied the prisoner. "How long have you been bere ?" "Thirty days." "Who have you been working for?" "Nobody at all; sir." "What ! been here thirty days and haven't done any work yet?" "Well you see I've been iu jail twenty-eight days." "I'll give you 3 years in the Penitentiary," remarked His Honor, and this closed the colloquy. The Weather. That the wisest and best of men differ on the most common subjects, is forcibly illus trated by the various and very diverse pre dict ions of the weather- w se about the weath er fur the near future. Some who assume to know whereof they Fpeak, say that the cold weather for the winter is yet to come; thjt v'e may look fr Tery cold weather part of this month. Others equally as wel1 iniormed say iliatware to have an early spring, and that we may expect very little more cold weather'.' When the savans are so entirely disagreed we dare not express an opinion before April or May. By which time there will be no need to do it. The Champion Mean Man. Messrs W R Burwell & Co., had about fiftv leeches in a big glass bowl in their store, and Bill Hall, the colored man who stays in the store, fell upon a labor-saving plan in connection with their preservation. He took the leeches, put them in a tub, and set the tub, filled with little holes so that the water could run through it, in a branch near his house, concluding that this would be cheaper and better than to change the water npon the leeches in the store every day or two. But what does some unregener ate son of a gun do, but comfi" along and steal the leeches, :tub- Mid" all, S&hd carry tbenisawrVs6 that Ihey 'Hare'tfever been found or heard of, 'since. It is pot safe to leave ten-hoppers and saw-mUlaout doo.rs in tke?coniniu'nity tf here that fellow resides. A Hard Row of Stumps. Few public officers haye heavier duties than are those of Solicitor Montgomery. Very many of the bills of indictment which he draws up, have to be written entire. The particular offence must be stated in plain terms, and the printed forms cannot be used, for the reason, as Maj Montgomery says, that when the foirus were mad9, nothing was known of these tobacco box or string tricks. Executive Ccfmmittee of the Davidson Trustees. A meeting olthe Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees of Davidson College, was held at that place on yesterday. Little more than routine business was transacted. Accounts were audited and preliminary ar rangements made for the Commencement exercises in June. The Committee resolved to recommend to the full Board, at its meet ing in June, a re distribution of the profes sorships and elections or transfers to rill the chairs of Mathematics and French and Latin. Nothing Serious After Ail. We mentioned, Tuesday, that Mr. R. F. Stokes had been called suddenly to his home at Union Court House, S. C, by a telegram which assigned no reason why his presence was required. Messrs. J. A. Young & Son, for whom he is a salesman, received a letter from him yesterday morn ing, informing thena of the illness of his brother, with pneumonia. It was feared that he would die, but he has rallied and is much better. Mr. Stokes feared that his father(one of the South Carolina editors who speaks out) had become involved in some difficulty growing out of his .newspaper articles. - New Jewelry Establishment. An advertisement in another column, by Mr Rush H Bixler, announces that he has opened an establishment for the repair of watches, clocks, jewelry, &c, in the room next door to Maxwell's sewing machine emporium, on Tryon street. Mr Bixler came here about a year ago from Augusta, and since that time has been in the employ of Hales & Farrior. He bears the reputa tion of being a very excellent workman, and will no doubt giye satisfaction to all who favor him with their patronage. Protracted Meeting Closed. The protracted meeting which has been in progress at the Baptist Church for three weeks past, closed last eyening. The re sults haye been very gratifying, 8 persons hayirjg professed a hope that they haye un dergone a change of heart, and having con nected themselves with the church. The pastor, assisted at times by Rev. J. K. Men denhall, Rev. A. N. Arnold, and Rey. R. H. Griffith, has labored with great fidelity since this meeting began, and is very grate ful for the success which has crowned his labors and those of his christian brethren. Effect of a Seal on Promissory Notes. The Court of Appeals cf Maryland has re cently decided a case of much interest to business men, associations arid all others who deal ia promissory notes. The note of a building association, in the usual form of a promissory note, but with a symbol repre senting the seal of the association was issued signed by the proper officers, and the ques tion before the court was whether the seal made the paper a specialty aud non-negotia ble, or whether it could pass by mere en dorsement as an ordinary promissory note without seal. The Court of Appeals decided that the paper issued as a promissory note and was intended to pass as such, having been given instead of money, and on which it was intended to raise monev. To Fasten T.oose Window Sashes. The most convenient way to prevent loose window sashes from rattling unpleasantly, when the wind blows, is to make four one sided buttons of wood and screw them to the beading which is nailed to the casings of the window, making each button of proper length to press the side of the sash outward when the end of the button is turned down horizontally. The buttons operate like a clamp. By having them of the correct length to crowd the stiles of the sash outward against the outer stop of the window frame, the sash will not ouly be held so firmly that it cannot rattle, but the crack which admitted dust and a current of cold air will be closed so tightly that no window-strip will be required. The buttons should be placed about half way between the upper and lower end of each sash. "Western Sketches." Dr C L Huuter, of Cottage Home, Lincoln county, is preparing a book which he will call "Western Sketches," and which he hopes to have published very soon. It will be in the form of biographies of some of the oldest families of Western North Carolina, the history extending back to and beyond the war of thejeyolution. Dr Hunter is well qualified for this task. He is yery much of an antiquary, and his researches for many years past have been deep ; he has gathered together already, much of the ma terial of which this book, will be formed. Dr H is a gentleman of culture, and will put his material together iu readable shape The work will be very fnll, so far as it pro fesses to go, and we ha ve no doubt that the facts will be stated with entire accuracy and put in concise form. Dr Hunter was in Our office, yesterday, and eav us an out line of his design. Celebrating His Marriage. The other evening as S H Hilton, Esq., was riding out home, he noticed a well dressed white man walking along the rail road near the Fair Grounds, barely able to keep between the rails. He was as full as a tick and as gay as a lark. "HeL-lo !" said he, as soon as he saw Mr Hilton, "how're you ?" "First rate," was the reply, "but what's the matter with you?" "Me? matter with (hie) me? Why, I'm married!'' "Married are you?" "Yes, married, (hie)!" "Who did you marry ?" was asked. "Who'd I (hie) marry ? why, I married Miss Betsy Norris zat's who I mairried !" "And how long have you been married ?" was the question which next followed. "How long I been married? Bout eight years 1" And exclaiming "'hooray for hooray I" the fellow moved off on his r unwilling legs, while the 'Squire rode on thinking wn happy marriage that must have been, that the husband should be eo plied with whiskey and rejoicing in conse duemcd of it, eigkt years after it had taken place. t. Fire In Danville. A telegram received by Col A S Buford, as he passed through this city last night.in- formed him that at that time (about 9 o'clock) Lawson's tobacco factory at Dan ville was in -flames, and that the fire was not under control. A Danyille gentleman here at present, states that this factory is situated in a very thickly settled portion of Danyille. The telegraph office there closed at 0 o'clock and no farther particulars of the fire were received last night. Supreme Court Decisions. The Supreme Court on Monday last ren dered decisions in the following cases, among many others, which went up from counties in this circuit and section : Wm M Tolly ys Wash Reed et al, from Cabarrus. Judgment affirmed. R S Abrams. assignee, vs Thomas R (Sure ton, administrator from Polk. Judgment below reversed. Richard Ten Broech vs W H Orchard from Cabarrus. Reversed and remanded. Carolina Central Railway Co. vs Commis sioners of Richmond. Affirmed. Llfe-LIke Descriptions. A "lady" before one of the Magistrates, yesterday evening, after her case had been disposed of, indulged in some remarks upon the constables. "There's Whitley," said she ; "Whitley comes after you a-panting, with that old cap sot on the back of his head, and his eyes sat, and pulls you right out ana up town no matter what you are doing or whether you've got on more than fifteen cent3 worth of clothes or not. When ever you hear he is after you, you ought to go and meet him. But King is the polite man ; he comes in and sets down and speaks to everybody and waits till you are rejdy to go, But whenever he thinks you have had long enough time and says go, yon don't want to fool around any longer. King is sort of a woman's man, but Whitley is bad, and he ain't pretty nother." The Public's Tardiness. Why is it that people won't do a th ing at the right time ? Let there be a meeting of any kind, and let the hour be specified, and no matter how late it may be, the people will be later than it. We have the lecture which was delivered on Tuesday evening, in our mind. Every person who was there. Knew mat v.rfo o ciock was tne nour ap pointed for the lecture to begin, yet at that time not one-fifth of the crowd which was present at the close, was thera. They strag gled in from the time the lecture began un til it was two-thirds finished, losing much of the good of the lecture themselves, and interrupting those who had begun with the beginning anu were k'eeping up with the thread of the narrative. Many of these late-comers were business men whose labors had closed with the close of the day, and who could easily have been there an hour earlier it it baa been necessary, wnile some were men who haven't struck a lick of work in six months, and who could have been there as conveniently at one time as at an other. People who are at these places in time, care nothing about what the late comers lose, bat protest against themselves being inter rupted ccjntinually from beginning almost to end. The Courts. Superior Court. A good deal of business was transacted yesterday; the larceny cases were struck, and two darkies were billed through to the works of internal improve ment. Jo. Johnston colored, for larceny. was sent up for 3 years. Jim Porter, colored, for larceny , wa? giyen 5 years. Bob Alex ander, colored, cnargeu witn larceny, was tried and found not guilty. W H Smith, white, charged with the larceny of a hat, was tried and found not guilty. The high way robbers, Adam Phifer, Neal Knox, Dennis McCoy, Jim Poindexter and Jim Suthers, all colored were tried on a joint indictment for the stealing of a watch and other property, from the person of Mr Jos Erwin, on the public highway; this case was reported in the papers at the time of its occurrence. The robbers had no counsel. and Dennis McCoy did the examining of witnesses and the talking for the crowd. They were all found guilty of the charge preferred, after a short absence of the jury. They were then tried for assaulting Mr R B Wallace, and found guilty on this charge also. Sentence was not passed upon them, as they are to be tried in other cases to-day. About 30 cases were disposed of by non-suit, submission, nol pros, and in other ways. Court adjourned at 3 to meet this morning at 9J. ; There was no session of the Mayor's Court, yesterday morning, and the only criminal case before any of the Magistrates was that of Isaac Bart'ett, for assault and battery. He was found guilty and held to bail in the sum of $100 for his appearance at Court. A Chat With a Farmer. We had a little talk, yesterday afternoon, with Capt S B Alexander, one of the best farmers in all this part of the State, regard ing agricultural matters. Capt A says he is about done with cotton. He is satisfied that our farmers cannot compete with those of the Gulf States in the production of this staple, and henceforth he expects to de vote but a very small amount of his atten tion to it. He is going into the raising of grasses in future. He never if his life saw such a year as this for grass growing. Lait Fall in September and October, though the latter month is generally too late he put in a crop of orchard grass, and it is now look ing beautiful. . Ciover is also looking splen didly. It is more advanced right now than it was on the first of April last year. Capt Alexander talked also about wheat and oats. He doesn't think wheat is look ing so well now as it ought to at this sea son, and can't account for it, either. He has seen very little good wheat this side of Lex ington, so far. However, there is no count ing on this crop. In 1868, at this time of the year, the wheat looked miserably, yet this-State has rarely ever seen such ; a . yield as there was then. His wheat averaged 18 bushels to the acre, which is unusual. Year before last, too, it looked badly, in the early spring, and turned out well, and litstlipring it looked well and yet the turn-out war poor. ; So there Is little judging wheat this far ' hi adyance. It may be an excellent crop. Oats; Capt A says, are looking splencUdly unusu ally wen lor uus season. Two Eloping Children. We published, on yesterday, the list of marriage licenses issued last month. In the list were the names of a couple who were to have eloped on yesterday. The groom is a- lad of 60 Summers, and the bride a blushing girl of 30. The parents of the latter had de creed that they should part. A few even ings since, the father of the loyed, loving and lovely female, went out to the cow-pen where she was engaged in the sentimental task of extracting the incipient butter from the blaze-faced cow called "Suke," and found the passionate youth hanging around the ragged edges of the fence corners, pour ing his tale of love into the ear of the fair one, who listened and blushed as she man ipulated the bosom of the cow. Parents are too often cold and heedless of the tender emotions which find a place in the breasts of their children, - and this old gentleman had no more consideration than to seize an unsentimental pitch-fork and chase his contemporary oyer the fence and down the lane, yelling to him as he reached the quarter stretch, that if he ever came back there he would be put to sudden and ignominious death. But these two lovers had vowed a vow, and this marriage license of which we have spoken, is the consequence. Now we are waiting to hear of the marriage, and if the old man did sure enough slay his venerable son-in-law. The Lecture To-NIgat. The second lecture of Prof Tripp's course in this city, will be delivered at the Asso ciate Reformed Presbyterian Chapel this evening, beginning at 8 o'clock. The sub ject will be the Second Empire, and will embrace the Crimean War and all the other interesting events of that period. We as sure our readers that these lectures are high ly instructive and meritorious. They have been received with applause before the finest audiences in America, and to lovers of French history a splendid opportunity Is presented for the gratification of their tastes. The recommendations which Prof Tripp brings from Dr Charles Phillips, and other well-known and distinguished gentlemen, are sufficient guarantee of the worth of his productions, and in addition to these, all who were out on Tuesday evening, will bear testimony to their excellence and interest. We shall expect to see the roem crowded this evening. The lecture, this evening, among other in teresting topics will embrace the life and career of Maxamilian and Carlota with per sonal reminiscences, the lecturer having seen Carlota and her father and mother and two brothers, one'of them the present King of the Belgians, The Crimean war will be illustrated by a large map recently painted by Mr Rawson,of New York City. Tickets for the two remaining lectures 75 cents, evening 50 cents. Lent Ash Wednesday. Yesterday, the 1st of March, commenced the season of Lent. It is an ancient custom of the Christian Church to hold as a period of fasting and solemnity the forty days pre ceding Easter in commemoration of the miraculous abstinence of Jesus whenunder temptation. From lengten-tide, a Saxon word for spring, as being the time of the lengthening of the day, came the familiar word for this period Lent, Originally, the period began on what is now the first Sun day in Lent; but it being found that when Sundays, as improper for fasting, were omitted, there remained only thirty-six days, the period was made, by Pore Gregory, to commence four days earlier ; namely, on what has since been called Ash Wednesday. This name of Ash Wednesday was derived from the notable ceremony of the day in the Romish Church. It being thought proper to remind the faithful, at the commence ment of the great penitential season, that they were but dust and ashes, the priests took a quantity of ashes, blessed them and sprinkled them with holy water. The wor shipper then approsched in sack-cloth, the priest took up some of the ashes on the end of his fingers, and made with them the mark of the cross on the worshipper's fore head, saying "Memento, homo, quia cinit es, et inpulverin reverteris." (Remember, man, that you are of ashes, and into dust will re turn.) NEW ADVERTISEMENTS KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS.
