The sale of the Gaston Gold Mining Com pany's property, will take place on the 6th of April, on the premises in Gaston County. Kite flying is the fun among the boys, now. The reporter noticed several kites in the air in different" parts of the city on yes terday. A thief entered the warehouse of Dr E Nye Hutchison on Thursday evening be tween dark and 9 o'clock, and stole a quan tity of peas; nothing more. Mr Koellsch has at hia book store, some beautifully executed pictures of various de sign. It is well worth one's times to drop in there and see them. The crowd in and around the Court House was not so dense, on yesterday; The high way robbery cases of the day before, attract ed a large number, particularly of negroes. An old man, both blind and drunk, (not simply blind drank), was making of himself a good deal of a nuisance on the streets, yes terday afternoon when he was arrested and locked up for the night. There is to be no shortening pat into coat tails this spring, and pants will be baggier than ever to accommodate those gentlemen whose legs are built on the stilt plan. Dog eared collars, cut so as to show the binding of the undershirt, will be popular. Mr P S Whisnant. of this city, who has lately been established at Welford, S. C, manufacturing tobacco boxes, after spending several day in Winston, has determined, according to the Sentinel, to move his estab lishment to that town. We are requested to state for the benefit of the public that the post office at Garibaldi, in Gaston county, on the Air-Line Railroad has not been discontinued as has been report ed. Mr A Stowe is the postmaster, and the office is open and doing business as usual. Alf Dayis, a negro charged with belonging to the gang of highwaymen, was discharged on Thursday no evidence appearing against him. Subsequent revelations, however, proved his connection with the clan and on yesterday afternoon he was re-arrested and re-committed to jail. Belknap's crime and its probable conse quences to the Republican party in the next campaign were on the lips of everybody yes terday. One 'cf 'the most prominent Repub licans in the city spoke of the President's hasty acceptance of Belknap's resignation, as strange and unprecedented. A little boy whose name we failed to learn, was running along the track of the North Carolina Railroad, between Eighth and Ninth streets, yesterday afternoon, when he fell with his face upon one of the ties, koncking out several teeth, cutting his lip, and otherwise injuring his face. Mr James Steyens-died in this city yester day morning at 6J o'clock , aged 80 years. The deceased was the lather of our city policeman Mr G K Stevens, and was one of Charlotte's oldest citizens, having resided here for the last 53 years. He was a man of excellent character and was held in high es teem by all who knew him. Personal. E B Drake, Esq., the editor of the States ville American, arrived in the city last even ing. Rev, E. J, Meynardle, formerly pastor of Tryon St. M. E. Church, of this city, was in the city on yesterday. We will say to those to whom the informa tion will be of any interest, that on yester day morning we had to put our forms to press after the regular edition of the paper was worked off, and print 50 extra copies to supply the demand which was made at the office by newsdealers and parties whose pa pers had been discontinued. The First Mouth of Spring. March, it has been said, is the first month of Spring. He is nature's old forester, going through the woods and dotting the trees with green to mark out the spots where the future leaves are to be hung : "Study March, with brows full sternly bent, And armed strongly, rode upon a ram; The same which over Hellespontos swam ; Ytt in his band a spade he also bent, 2, nl in a bag ail sorts of weeds, the same Wliirh on the earth hestrewed as he went, Arid filied her wnnh with fruitful hope of nourishment,"' I he v. i:e o! Mr.D Austin, the well known shoe-maker, ii ,t ro. i v e.l a telegram that her brotber, B L Marshall, a merchant living at Camden. Arkansas, had just died, leaving her all of his property. The real estate . amounts to $10,000 in value, and Mr Austin received a letter from her brother a short time agot informing her that in addition to property of this kind, he was worth from $20,000 to $25,000, making the value of the estate in the neighborhood of $35,009. The Danville Fire. We mentioned briefly in pur local col umns on Thursday "morning, that a,firo had occurred in Danville, VaM on the night pre vious. -Since that time the" Danyille- JVru has come to hand,, with the information that the prize' house of A A Lawson; occu pied by T F. Staples, was burned, with : $18, 000 lbs of tobacco,' valued . at $1,800 - Mr. Lawscn lost $2,000, and had no insurance; Mr Staples had $2,000 insurance. On the same bight the prize house :3ofj A?B Cham bers, occupied by' J J, Hankins, was destroy' ed by fire. i.It contained $800 worth" of; to bacco, insured' fist $501";' 'Mr ChamberaUoss wa $,0Qff--iio insuraiica.' ' Nice Thins for Ford. ' '' Mr Ford is very complimentary to Atlan ta, and says that its ability to support a real ly first-class show is not second to any city in the South. Atlanta has given Mr BDoththe- largest house he has had since he left Balti more. The receipts for. the first night there ran to $2,700;Ohareston gave him $2,400; Richmond about $2,000, and Charlotte, $1,500. Something like the Old Times. Leonard Crockett, colored, was tried in the Supeiior Court on yesterday, in conjunction with Henry Williams, also colored, for an attempt to steal hogs.' They were detected in the act of putting a hog in a bag, and the. evidence was undisputable. Both were found guilty, but Crockett being a very young boy, Judge Schenck did not want to send him ta the penitentiary, aud so told his mother that if she would promise to give the boy a good whipping, he would release him. The mother promised, and led her hopeful out. She afterwards requested Deputy Sheriff Farrow to fulfill the promise which she had. made the Judge, and Mr. Farrow, divesting himself of his overcoat, and requiring the boy to divest himself of his coat, proceeded to five "him an old. fashioned, ante-bellum thrashing, laying on 29 square licks, which the boy will remem ber much longer than he would haye re membered 10 years in the penitentiary. The Lecture Last Evening. Prof Tripp lectured last evening to a full room. He had for his subject the causes of the Franco-Prussian war. Going far back into the mists of ages, he traced up the va rious fends which had existed between France and Prussia and the causes which had led to them ; then coming up to a later period, he spoke of the many insults which France had received from Bismarck before finally, etoaded to desperation, she asserted herself and declared war. A history of the most notable events of that period was giyen and the lecture closed with the beginning of the reign of the commune in Paris. Not only was the war told of and its causes, but interesting personal sketches were given ; a brief biography of Bismarck was given, and his genius and nerve were commended in befitting terms ; Bazaine, whom the world is disposed to regard as a traitor on account of his surrender at Metz was referred to as a gallant, soldier, and the greatest military chieftain of the French army. One of the most interesting pieces of information im parted, was the statement received by the Tecturer from a distinguished foreigner that the war being discussed was a pre-arranged plan between Prussia and Russia against France. The lecture was highly instructive per harw the most so if any of the series It was the last of the lectures, as we are sorry to say, Prof Tripp leavisg to-day for David son College. The Courts. Superior Court. The criminal docket is still being work upon, and a considerable hole has been made in it. Quite a number of cases were disposed of on yesterday. The following were the jury trials : Jim Blair, colored, charged with larccuy, convicted and sentenced to 3 years in the penitentiary at hard labor. Gus Wayaaan, colored, for indecent exposure of person, for trespass and other still more villainous conduct in this city about two months ago, was sent to the penitentiary for 10 years. Henry Williams and Leonard Crockett were indicted for pur suing live stock, and tried; Williams was sentenced to 2 years in the panitentiary, and Crockett, a mere lad, was discharged to be punished by his mother. B jb Phillips, colored, tried for larceny, and acquitted. Moses Welch, charged with larceny was found guilty, but has not yet been sentenced. R J Smith, white, one of the participants in the Christmas riot, was tried for assault and battery, and sentenced to six months' im prisonment in the county jail, to be given credit for the two months which he has al ready served. The docket was cleared of quite a number of other oases during the day. All the jail cases, so far as the grand jury has found bills have been disposed of. Mayor1 1 CurtT--Henry Johnson, colored, was up for an affaray, was found guilty, and $2 and the cost were required of him. There were no new criminal cases before any of the Magistrates. Lent and Its Origin. As the Lenten season has been ushered in, some words concerning its origin aud ob servance will prove of interest to our read ers. Protestants generally consider Lent not to haye been established before the second or third century; but the Catholic church maintains with St Jerome, St. Leo, St. Au gustine, and the majority of tHeathera of the church of the fourth and fifth centuries, thatit'iaof apostolic origin. They reason thus: that which we find universally es tablished in the church, and of which we cannot. nevertheless, find the institution by a council, must have been established by the Apostles ; and the 69th Apostolical Canon, the Council of Nice, in 325, that of Laodicea, in SC5, and the fathers of the second and third centuries, speak of Lent as a usage generally observed by the church. In the Litin church Lent formerly lasted but thirty-six days ; in the fifth cen tury four days were added, in imitation of the forty day's fast of the Saviour, and this usage became general in the western church, except in the church of Milon. The Greeks begin Lent one week sooner than the Ro man Catholics, but they do n ot fast on Sun day, except in Passion Week, though their fasts, generally speaking, are much more strict than those of the Roman Catholics: The Latin Monks had formerly three fasts of forty days each, and the Greeks observed four besides Lent, but they have reduced them to seven days each. Some Oriental sects had still other great fasts. The eighth Council of Toledo in 655 orders that those who break the fasts, without necessity, shall eat no meat daring the whole year,-and shall not partake of the Lord's Supper at Easter. Until the year 1200 tit.one meal a day was eaten during Lent;"- iThe . close of Lent is celebrated in Catholia countries with great rejoicing. In Rome Ihe pixticamotl, or shops Lin which hams, sausages, eggs, Ac, are sold are illuminated and ornamented in the most picturesque manner the night before in or der to attract "buyers The statue of a saint made of butter, is often Been. Heaps of eggs are multiplied endlessly Iby reflecting mir rors, and the whole eceW is quite brilliaat and attractive. To Oar Friends and Patrons in Char lotte. ' !-. We have this day restored to our subscrip tion Hats the names of every subscriber who has paid the subscription up to the-1st day January last. We do this from the convic tion that we acted hastily in striking off the names without presenting the bills for the present quarter, which we have decided, af ter mature deliberation, it was our duty to haye done. Between now and the first da? of April the bills will be presented as usual, and each subscriber will have opportunity of saying whether the paper Will be contin ued or not after that time. No vaver wilt be sent to any one after the first of April, unless paid for in advance. m Close of the Market House. Under a resolution of the Board of Alder men, directing him to close up the Market House whenever" there was a failure on the part of the lessee (o pay the rent, City Mar shal Alexander on yesterday afternoon lock ed up that institution and took possession of the keys. The Market House has recent ly been rented by the month to one lessee, who sub-rented the stalls a number of other persona. It looks singular to see this insti tution closed up during the hours of busi ness, but we do not know that the commu nity would be much the loser if it were kept closed. Soliciting Committee. The members of the Hornet Fire Compa ny, at their meeting last night, resolved to make an effort to raise a sufficient amount of money to purchase horses to pull their engine. We sincerely trust that the citi zens of Charlotte will respond liberally when they are called upon for this purpose. This additional facility will certainly add greatly to the efficiency of the company, and every property owner has a personal interest in this.
