The Trial of Ex-Treasurer Car- dozo off South Carolina. Columbia, S C, Nov 3. Testimony in the Cardozo trial was finished late this evening. The defendant was rig idly cross-examined this morning, and among other things testified that Har dy Salomon had offered him a bribe of $5,000, when visiting his private office about certain fraudulent claims amounting to $20,000. Solomon con tradicted this statement, and alleged that he had given Cardozo $3,000 or $4,000 as part of the fraudulent claims substituted in this transaction. Solo mon's cashier, Sealey, testified that when he presented the claims, Car- dozo's clerk demurred to the payment, when Uardozo tola mm to pay the de mand, and that it was none of his busi ness. Sealey is a respectable Demo crat, and his evidence on this point is damaging to the defendant The coun sel for the. defendant subsequently ad mitted tne substitution of the fradu lent claims. The argument of the counsel will begin Monday. The jury is kept together and guarded every night. &n3 DO NOT BUY YOUR ' IP TU lESE H TEJ IES US p j until you haverseen ithe elegant stock of goods now in my waxerooms. - The assortment is the largest and most completever offered in Charlotte, AHim it OTiiiia fait you Respectfully, TO INSPECT IT AND GET MY PRICES. The Right to Organize a Cabinet Efforts to Establish Har mony. London, November 3. The PosVt Berlin special announces that Viscount De'Gontant Biron, ambassador of France to Germany, has resigned. It is also reported that he is to succeed Duke De Cases as minister of foreign affairs. The limes' Paris correspondent has received information that Sunday's elections will make little difference in the present political status. Most of the outgoing councillors will be re elected. Duke De Cases has consent ed to' a postponement of the announce ment ot his resignation until alter bun day's elections. The Paris correspondent of the Standard asserts that the following semi-omcial note has been sent to provincial papers : "It appears to have been decided at the last cabinet council that the pres ent cabinet will remain in office till November 5th. After the elections to the council general the government will rind itselx in the presence of two extreme policies, one of resistance to the Chamber of Deputies, with the sup port of the Senate; the other of com plete concession, bringing into office a ministry composed exclusively of the Left. The present disposition of the Marshal does not admit of the latter policy. However, the President is willing to see if it be not possible to arrive at some kind of transaction by which the Left of the Chamber of De puties and the Right Centre of the Senate may be represented in the cabinet, thereby establishing harmony between the two houses." Paris, November 3. Le Soleil slates that M Pauyer Quertier has been in vited by the President to form a cabi net of the Right, in which M Pauyer Quertier is to be president of the coun cil and minister of finance. Le Soleil says this is a conciliatory step for the Marshal. The Repulique Francais says it is im possible for President MacMabon to accept a ministry acceptable to the re cently elected representatives of the Deople because such a ministry must act in the teeth of the President's poli cy of the past four years A great is sue has been raised; a temporizing so lution will not do. THE WAR. IN HONOR OF MORTON. The Great Respect Snown to the memory of the Eate Senator. Indianapolis, Nov 3. All railroads will run excursion trains on Sunday, on which day Senator Morton's re in ains will lie in state. The sorrow is universal and messages of condolence have reached the Senator's family from all sections and from all parties, among them the following: Washington, Nov 3, 1877. To Col Holloway Indianapolis, Ind: I desire, through you, to offer to Goy Morton's widow and family my warm est sympathy in their great affliction. Amid the general and sincere manifes tations of sorrow at the public loss, of which none can be more sensible than myself, my long friendship for Governor Morton makes me wish to be counted among those who feel in his death the grief of a personal be reavement.

The reason why only one sample bottle of Menell's Hepatine for the Liver will be sold to the same person, for ten cents, by oar druggists, in Charlotte, is because of the enormous expense of importing the Hepa tine into this country, but as there are nfty doses in the large size bottles, it seems two cents a dose is cbeap enough for a medi cine that cures dyspepsia and liver com plaint. All who have not had a sample bottle are entitled to one for ten cents at all druggists. Three doses relieves any case of dyspepsia, constipation, indigestion or liver complaint, inthe world.
