i was so sua last night, after the wind

Sheriff Alexander's new baby must feel
mignty foolish. It was born on the 29th of

The Pioneer Fire Company met last night
in monthly session. Only routine business
was transacted, and none of this is of inter

his oats to any one else, he wouldn't mind

The more we look at that piece of macad
amizing in Independence Square, done by
Mr W WT Phifer, the more we like it. In
our opinion it is about the best piece of
street work in the city.
It is reported here that Jo. Legare, the
white deyil who was sent to the Peniten
tiary from here at the last term Cf court, has
escaped from the guards on the Western
North Carolina Railroad.
The inclemency of the weather prevented
a meeting of the Mecklenburg Historical
Society last night. A devoted few of the
members met in Dr Moore's room, and dis
cussed subjects which, if not historical, lack
ed nothing of being biographical.
Last evening while the rain was coming
do wn the heaviest, a Hornet fireman was
seen dashing through the streets in full uni
form, going to the engine house. He thought
he had heard the fire alarm. Creditable to
the young man.
The order susj. ending one of the night
trains on the Carolina Central Railroad, has
been rescinded, and these trains still run

perfectly executed could not have been J
better done anywhere. Mr. K. deserves en
couragement in this new branch of business
which he has established here.
Suggestive cf an .Xrial Excursion.
A large shipment of powder, with the head
knocked out of one of the kegs, laid, for some
time, yesterday morning on the platform
between the warehouses of the Carolina Cen'
tral and North Carolina Railroads. People
who had business down there, circled way
around that powder, and walked light and.
theught about that dynamite affair.
One Good Effect.
It is noticed that since the Market House
has been closed, there is none of that crow d
of dirtyj drunken and blasphemous negroes
hanging around that locality This class
formerly caused ladies to shun that side of
the street, particularly after dark, and to
this extent, if rao. further, the closing ef the
Market House has been a public benefit.
The Methodist Services.
Notwithstanding the rain fell in torrents
last evening about church time, there was a
very fair congregation at Tryon Street M E
Church. The sermon of the evening was
preached by Rev C M Pepper, f Concord,
Presiding Elder Bobbitt and the pastor of
the church being also present. Three peni
tents appeared at the altar, and received the
prayers of the con gregation . Rev W H Bob
bitt will preach this evening.
Curious Times.
The wife of Mr Joseph Wisenyunt of
Burke county, gave birth to twins the last
night of the old year one was -born ten
minutes before 22 o'clock, and the other ten
minutes after 12. ; So one was. torn on Fri
day and the other on Saturday, one in 1875
and the other in 1876. . Their birth day is
not the same yet they are twins. We doubt
if such a thing ever occurred before in the
history of the world, Blue Bulge Blade.
Strange, indeed; but Charlotte is still
ahead. On Saturday the 15th of January
last, a woman in this city (we ithhold the
name) gave birth to a child,and on the follow-
ing Wednesday the 19th of January, she
was delivered of another both fine healthy
Children. This last bfrth made the twen
tieth child of which this woman has become
the mother This statement can be sub
stantiated at any time.

Unexpectedly Drank.
The police put a negro in the lock-up, yes
terday afternoon. He was cool sober and
bad no liquor about him. At dark they
visited him, and found him stone blind
drunk, rolling over the floor and groaning.
The calaboose has lately been white-washed
and the negro was as white as a sheet
clothes, face and hands ; he had been tumb
ling around at such a rate. Somebody had
slipped liquor to him.
The Fuu Closiug.
It would appear that our dramatic season

uocieiy young man couldn't save enough
out of his wages to pay board, after buying
ticnets and Juring a carnage about every
tuird mgnt in the week.
What is Needed.
We haye large and beautiful churches
fashionable and intelligent congregations;
devout and able pastors; magnificent organs;
choirs composed of splendid yocalists ; and
music that compares favorably with any
city of its size. We have plenty of talent
in embryo but what we are absolutely in
want of is a good yoice builder and musical
instructor, to develop it. Perhaps th e de
sideratum may eome along some of these
diys.
The Raiu.
via rrobs predicted truly. After the
heavy winds of yesterday, the clouds which
had hung in the skies all day, broke a short
time after dark lastevening, and the rain de
scended and the floods came. A rain has
rarely ever been more welcome here, even in
tne bummer time when the earth was dry
and ready to drink it up ; for the dast
which was taken up on the wings of the
wind and hurled to and fro all day yester
day, was stifling in its volume and violence,
and it is pleasant to reflect that we shall
have none of this to-day, even though the
winds do blow.
The Baby Carriages.
With the coming of Spring the baby car
riage nuisance had been resumed, but such
days as yesterday bring a relief from these
infantile vehicles. A great many of our citi
zens are complaining of the number of baby
vehicles on Trade and Tryon streets. The
negro nurses who have nothing better to do,
congregate on some corner, and it often hap
pens that pedestrians are compelled to take
the street in order to get by. While we are
not one of tli93e who delight in drinking to
the health ot King Herod, yet we must say,
it is hard, indeed, that the sidewalks are to
be obstructed with these wagons. We have
often seen them on Trade and Trvon streets,
three and four abreast.
Connecticut Mutual Life Insurance Com
pany.
We have been publishing for several xlays
as aa advertisement, the Twentieth Annual
Statement of the Connecticut Mutual Life
Insurance Company, to which we direct at
tention. It is now one of the oldest Insu
rance Companies in the United States.and if
age is any test, it certainly deserves to be
ranked with the best among such institu
tions. The report shows a net exhibit of
assets on hand en the 31st of December last
$141,4G2,0G5.53,while $6 20G,923.'?7,havebeen
paid Out to policy holders. To those who
are interested, we are free to say that this is
a gratifying exhibit. S D Wait, Esq., of Ral
eigh, is the general agent for the State of
North Carolina, and this of itself is a recom
mendation to the people of the S'ate.
Failure of C. Hashagcn.
O Hasnagen, heavy and fancy grocer of
this city, has filed a petition in bankruptcy.
The cause of this failure is the fact that the
creditors of the late firm of Hottendorf &
Hashagen, of Wilmington, have been press-
ng the surviving partner, Mr Hashagen,
who has been established in business
here about eight months, until he could no
longer stem the current, and he saw that the
only prospect of relief was in going into
bankruptcy. Mr Hashagen's liabilities are
$8,000 to $10,000, and expects to be able to
pay 50 cents on the dollar, if not more. The
business will be conducted as if no failure
had taken place, the proceeds of sales to
inure, of coursa, to the benefit of the credi
tors. The Ides of March.
The Ides, the Roman Calendar, were the
fifteenth of March, May, July and October,
and the thirteenth of the other months. The
word itself is derived, according to some,
from the Latin word idus, from iduare, to
divide, the ides divide, the ides dividing the
month into two nearly equal parts ; but
from the fact of eight days in the month be
ing coramonly, though improperly, called
ides, the correct derivation of the word is
probably from the Greek idein, to see, re
ferring te the days of the month when the
waxing moon is visible. The historical
event that gave celebrity to the Ides of March
was the death of Julius Csesar, an event im
portant both in its immediate effects and in
its haying furnished the material for oae of
Shakespeare's greatest tragedies. Ex.
Experience With a Left-Hande Plew.
A country darkey was in town yesterday,
having come to bring back to Mr W F Cook
a left-handed plow which he had bought
from him a few days ago. He exchanged
it for a right-handed plow, and then came
up street and talked abouHL You must
know that the left-handed plow is rather a
new departure in agricultural implements.
Everybody is used to a plow which throws
the dirt out on the right of it, and this one
does just the reverse of this. Well, the
darkey said, you couldn't give him one of
them. When he said "gee"- to the raules
the plow threw on the "haw" side, and
when you said "haw'Ut threw on the "gee"
side. Consequence was that when vou
wanted one thing done, the plow did just
exactly the other, and then seeing the mis
take you gave the mules another order right
away, and finally the mules got so they
didn't know what under the sun to make of
it. The darkey believes that if he had kept
that plow just one day longer, every mule
on the place would haye been a raving maniac
and he himself a complete "ediot." '
He will allow the utmost freedom to other
people if they want to buy this new-fangled
invention, but for his own part the daikey1
will in future suck to the "gee" plow.
Clear as Mad.
Reeling up to the counter of one of the i
hotels, the other night, and clutching it for
support, he exclaimed : "Want bed (hie)
wit two rooms in it !" "Want what?" quer
ied the clerk. "Yez," ha said, correcting
himself, "want two (hie) rooms wiz a bed
in it !" And pointing with his thumb over
his shoulder at an old "pard" in about as
bad a fix as he, he winked at the clerk and
smiled.
Felt So Cheap.
Since last May, when a parcel of young
men who had been obliviously drunk though
the Centennial, and took the top of a cistern
in Independence Square for the corner stone
of the Centennial Monument which they
supposed had been laid while they were
asleep, and afterwards found out their mis
take; since that time, we say, nobody, in
the corporate limits of this place has felt so
cheap as did a couple of young men who
went visiting the other night and after ring
ing for ten minutes at the door of a house,
found out that nobody lived there.
Yesterday's Zephyrs.
If a man had taken such a nap as that of
Rip Van Winkle, and waked up yesterday,
he would have guessed that it was March,
just because the wind don't take on in any
such style during any other month of the
year. Those zephyrs which fanned our
brows were a trifle too stiff; in fact they al
most took a fellow off his feet; and as for
dust, why there were clouds of it just skim
ming, dashing and playing through the
streets, in the most reckless manner, blind
ing people and choking them, and dirtying
their clothes and ruining goods and causing
the genial young clerks to haye more use for
the dusting brush than for the yard stick.
But this is just the beginning of the end.
We shall see plenty more days. just such as
yesterday, and meantime you had just as
well button your coat around your neck, in
order to keep the dust from your clean shirt
and make up your mind to accept with the
best possible grace, that which is inevita
ble. Stole a Pair of heen Shears.
Yesterday a negro came to the city in
charge of the wagon of Mr. W. D. Lemmon,
of Lancaster county, S. C, and carried an
order for some hardware to the store of Brem,
Brown & Co. While the order was being
filled, the negro was walking around the
store, and his manner was such as to arouse
suspicion. When the goods were ready, the
negro started out, saying that he was goiag
to the wagon and would return for the bill.
Capt. J. M. Wright, one of the book-keepers,
collared him and told him to haul tut
whatever it was he had stolen. He "hum
med and hawed" for some time, but finally
a pair of sheep shears were taken from his
person, and he was turned over to the po
lice, who took him to! the lock-up. Judge
Schenck will probably get a lick at him this
week, after which he will don a new suit
and address himself to the development of
the railroad interests of the country. Mr.
Lemmon's wagon was taken in charge and
will be sent home to-day.
The Courts.
Superior Cowl. This body was engaged
all day y&terday upon the ciyil suit of A
M Sloan vs. RI McDowell: the nlaintiff
brings suit to recover a claim amounting to
$1,000, to which the defendant sets up a
counter-claim of about $40,000. Messrs
Wilson & Son appeared for the plaintiff and
Messrs Vance fc Burwell and W W Flem
mingforthe defendant. The day's session
from 9J o'clock in the morning until 5 in
the afternoon, was consumed in the taking
of testimony and the arguments of counsel
in this case, and at the conclusion of these,
the jury retired, under His Honor's charge,
and after half an hour's absence brought in
a verdict for the defendant, finding all the
issues in his favor. Court adjourned upon
the retirement of the jary, to meet this
morning at 91 o'clock, when the criminal
docket will be resumed.
Beore Justice Davidson. Isaac Jenkins,
colored, for assault and battery upon his
wife, found guilty and fined $5 and cost.
There was no session of the Mayor's Court
and no criminal case before any of the Mag
istrates, other than that just mentioned.
A Singular Attachment.
Mr W M Vandiver, who liyes about six
miles from the city, possesses a cow and a
and a gander, betweeen which there ex
ists the warmest attachment. They do not
seem to care to associate at all with those
of their own kind, but only with each other
and when they are apart, both are perfectly
miserable. On several occasions Mr Vandi
ver has put the gander up where he couldn't
see his "pardner,",but he wouldn't eat a bite
and just got pale and melancholy and pined
away till they had to let him out to save his
life. Same way with the cow. She couldn't
rest at all until the gander was restored, and
though net a jumping cow, has been known
to jump a lawful fence to get to him. Many a
time the gander has wandered off as much
as five miles from home with the cow, when
none other of his tribe was anywhere
around. You never see the gander with
geese or ganders, and the cow neyer associ
ates with cows when it interferes with her
relations to the gander. It is a case of firm
and unwavering friendship; the copartner
ship has existed for a good long while, and
bids fair to exist as long as the natural exis
tence of the cow and the gander shall last.
Set a Good example.
Under this caption, the Wilmington Star,
after noticing the remarks of Gen Rufus
Barringer, upon the occasion of the sentence
of the highway robbers here last week, in
which he dwelt upon the source of the
crime committed by the colored race, in
dulges in these remarks : "There is truth
in the statement of Gen Barringer, who is a
leader high np in the Radical party, and
therefore should be heard bv the colored
people with respect if not reverence. Thei
teachers are responsible for much if not
most of the crime committed by the ne
groesthe teachers political, as well as the
teachers moral, parental and educational. ,
Let the young be taught that to lie, cheat,
steal, rob, kill and lead a life of vagabondism
and outlawry is to offend not only the God
who loves truth, mercy, peace, honesty and
righteousnftis and hates their opposites, bat
undermines the fabric' of the social and !
political system; and endangers the comfort,
the property, and the Urea of all citizen,
