INTERESTING LIQTJOSTATIS- . i r , tics. , On the morning of this day when the less reverential Americans turn their attention so largely to the cup which both cheers and inebriates, a summa ry of the annual report of the Commis sioner of Internal Revenue is interest, ing in some of the facts which it . pre sents. In the State of Maine there are no distilleries or rectifying establish ments, but four breweries, . six whole Bale';iiquor dealers, and only 402 saloons 1 In the State .of Kentucky, -which is f about equal in population, "there "are --754 distilleries, 54 rectify i n g establish ments, 37 breweries, 240 wholesale li quor dealers, and 4,284 saloons.

Since the 4th centu ry,; whenjhe theologians of the East and the West met under the order of Pope Julius I, issued at the instigation of St Cyril, of Jerusalem, and agreed upon the 25th of December as the day of Christ's nativity, the followers of the Redeemer' in every land have never ;iwi in linnnr with ceremonies of laiivu v v - somesort the great event, and while the character of some of these does not coincide with the ideas of enlightened Christians of the present day on this subject, they are all significant and interesting.- As civilization advanced, and the spirit of the teachings of the Great Being, the anniversary of whose advent into the world was thus ac knowledged, the fantastic spectacles of dramatic mysteries and moralities, the chanting of "Christmassy Carrolles," the wild music of the Calabrian min strels who descended from the moun tains to Naples and Borne to salute the shrine of the Virgin Mother, the grotesque saturnalia and carnivals with their every, variety of burlesque all snp.r.flsai vftlv irave away to ceremo nies more appropriate and beautiful. In England Christmas was at once made and has always been a religious, domestic and merry ing making iesu val. eauallv for every -rank and every j x - age. "England was merry England when c. nhrutinM hmnpht. hia BDorts asam. Twas Christmas broached the mightiest ale; Twas Christmas told tbememest taie; a nh.iatmiQ (rarnhnl rift would cheer A poor man's breast through half the year." i The influence of the spirit of Puritan ism in reference .to pastimes and all exuberant manifestations of pleas ure at first gave to the celebration of Christmas in the United States a sombre character, and to th is day, as is known to almost every "one, it is less generally celebrated in the New England States than elsewhere through out our country. It has, however, always been a most joyous and festive occasion with South ern people, and at the mere mention of the fact a thousand recollections of "Christmas before the war" will crowd upon all who remember those happy days. The peculiarities f the South ern Christmas were not so marked in the towns and cities as on the old plan tations and in the old country homes. How we all remember them : a house full of company, great dinners, a fox hunt, the inevitable fiddler, who was always breaking the strings, the crowd of grinning and happy darkies gather ing around to get their "Chrisms gifs," and at night dancing the "Old Virginia Reel" till the sun shone through the cracks of the house. Our Northern friends may speak of them as days of eudalism, but the supposed sufferers from the system will never see hap pier days than they then enjoyed. But these reflections will carry us too far. Now that we are becoming a more commercial people and our rela tions are in many respects changed, the modes of celebrating the day should be, and are already, changed, but the pleasures of the occasion are not less keenly relished. Christmas will al ways be the greatest of all the festivals the year. A people who are so wrapped up in the cares of business need the rest and recreation which the occasion allows. The work of the old year is almost finished, and before we enter upon the new year let us lay aside business for a few days, and endeavor to make ourselves, our families and our friends happy, and not forget those who, in God's providence, are poor and needy, but cultivate that virtue which His own Word has pronounced the greatest of them all. The Observer extends to all of its friends and patrons its best wishes for a merry, merry Christmas. HON. GEORGE DAVIS. A large number of persons and a very considerable part of the press of the State having suggested the name of Hon George Davis, of Wilmington, in connection with a seat on the bench of the Supreme Court when .the time comes for this court to be re-ofganized, that gentleman has written, to a friend in Raleigh, a letter which has been placed in the bands of the editor of the Observer, of that city, in which letter Mr Dayis declines in advance the hon or to vihich so many of the people of his State desire to see him elevated. In the course of his letter Mr Davis says : No man can hold in higher est ima tion than I do the 'dienitv of such a position . To -fill it worthily would be the highest reach of l my ambition. And even to be esteemed worthy of it by any considerable portion of the bar, ana people oi xorttt Carolina is an honor which touches - me - profoundly.

It is said that Miss Fanny Daven port, the famous actress w ho sustain ed a recent fall orr the stage by which her nose was broken and one of her eve injured, has been disfigured fur lie. An interesting story comes from Arizona. Kellogg and Carter owned a mining claim, and foolishly quarrelled about it. "Kellogg was a man of few words; "light and free was his touch upon bis revolver," With little ado, he fired at his partner, and supposed that he had sent a bullet into his breast ; but behold ! Carter was a good youne man, and had a Bible in the pocket of his gray working shirt. The ball struck upon the sacred book, its course was turned, and Carter was un hurt. Then the good young man whipped out his gleaming bowie-knife, sprang upon Kellogg, and carved him so artistically . that his hold on his revolver relaxed and he was like to die. The rood young man stanched his opponent's wound, and rode away for a physician, returning within twenty four hours, having made total distance of over ninety miles. Kellogg i3 re covering. Carter, to avoid arrest,, sought to crosa the river, and tbis time the Bible didn't .save him. He was drowned. The "moral of this re cital is very intricate. But it is plian that Carter wasn't born to be hanged Execution in Goldsboro. Hilliard Morgan, colored, was executed in Goldsboro last Friday, at 1:30 p m, for the crime of burglary, of which he was convicted at the fall term of Wayne Superior Court. The burglary was committed last February, Morgan hav ing entered the house of Mr T W Yel verton, with whom he was employed, and stolen therefrom about $400 in money. His character was against him and he was arrested, tried and convicted without difficulty. Last Fri day was appointed as the day for the execution, and the Governor refusing to interpose executive clemency, the execution took place. The negro made a speech in which he said, ot course, that he was not guilty and that he was going to heaven. The execution was well conducted and everything passed off quietly. The drop fell and Dr Kirby, the attending physician pronounced life extinct at 1:38. The Raleigh News contains a two and a hal column report of the crime, trial and execution.

Arden Cherry, an aged, frosty headed Senegambian, with a complex ion of a dandy's boots, furnishes the dog and accompanies Mr. Speight. They were out one night last week, and the 'varmint' dog commenced ly ing barking up the wrong tree. 1 tell yer what, Mars oeth, quoth Arden, "de Cap'n (you know Mars Ed. Foxhall) alius gives de dog a drink, when he lies, to stop him." Beth poured out a big drink and handed it to Arden, who took it in his mouth, swallowed it, and calling the dog up, epit down his throat. "Dar, now, Mars Seth, dat dog ain i a gwine to lie no more. Whoop, jam boree! Git away wid 'em, Danger. 7 Tarboro Southerner. From 13 to 43. Last Wednesday a country-man applied to the register ol deeds for a marriage license. That dignitary brought down his books and inquired the girl's name and age. Th- age was given at Id years. Of course the Register declined to accomodate the man on accoun t of his girl's extrem e youth. The indignant would-be-hus band walked out and shortly returned with his application .papers, having now made the girl's age 43. Our ven erable register scratched his head and mentally opined that something wac wrong, and further refused the license. A third time the devoted lion went out and this time, changed the fisrurea to make his girl a middle aged matron. The register required the affidavit of the witnesses as to the girl's age, but the baffled couple also left town and were heard of no more. Concord Sun. -v That Spool op Cotton.

' On Thurs day, the 20th, a general search was commenced, and Stephen Buie, F H Norc am and Monte Gause, being in a boat, soon discovered the body of the unfortunate man and brought it to the surface.

R, ftop'r, T. iMffiirvi nrn yyiiVilMliNJD By an immense practice, extending through a period of years, havinsr within that time treatefl many thousand cases of those diseases peculiar to woman, I have been enabled to perfect a most potent and agreeable medicine that meets the indications presented by that class of disi cases vun positive certainty ana exactness. To designate this natural specific compound, I have named it Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. The term, however, is but a feeble expression of my high appreciation of its value, based upon my own personal observation. As a close ob server, I have, while witnessing its positive re sults in the few special diseases incident to the separate organism of woman, singled it out as the climax or crowning gem of my medical career. On its merits, as a posi tive, safe, and effectual remedy for this cl&sa of diseases, and one that will, at all times and under an circumstances, act Kindly and in har mony with the laws which govern the female system, I am willing to stake my reputation as a physician. Nay, even more, so confluent am I that it will not disappoint the most sanenine expectations of a single invalid lady who uses it for any of the ailments for which I recommend it, that I offer and sell it under A POSITIVE GUARANTEE. If a beneficial effect is not exerienced by the time two-thirds of the con tents of the bo"ttle are ued, I will, on return oi the bottle, two-thirds of the medicine having been taken according to directions, and the case being one for which I recommend it. promptly refund the money paid for it. Had 1 not the most ieilect confidence in its virtues, I could not ;:ier it a 1 do under these conditions; but hav !'.;.' iincsscd its truly miraculous cures in thou traivis of caes, I feel warranted and (icrffectly afe u risking both my tcputatiou and my money on Its merits. The following are amon? those diseases in which mv Favorite Prescription has worked cures, hs if bv magic, and with a cer tainty never before attained bv any medicine: Lcucorrhuea, Excessive Flowinsr, Painful Monthly Periods, Suppressions when from un natural causes, Irregularities, Weak Back, Pro lapsus, or fallinir of the Uterus.
