It is learned that arrangements are
baingmade for building a furnace to
Tryon Street Methodist Church, which
will add greatly to the comfort of the
church in the winter.
The Synod of North Carolina will

The. Texas Presbyterian says that Mr.
R. S. iBurwell, of i the last graduating
class of Union Theological Seminary,
Virginia, and son of the Rev. R. Bur
well, Raleigh, formerly of Charlotte, is
visiting West Fork church Presbytery
of Central Texas, and will probably
supply this church in connection with
others.
lit. Rev. J.J. Keane, Bishop of Rich
mond and vicar apostlic of North Caro
lina, will administer confirmation at
the Catholic church in Gaston county,
at 11 o'clock, a. m., Wednesday the
23d inst ; at the Catholic church near
Concord. Cabarrus county, on Friday
25th inst, at io o'clock, a. m.; and in
this city at tire Catholic church' on Sun
day 27th instant.
Rev. S. Taylor Martin was in the city
yesterday. The climate of Henderson
coiroty has proved very beneficial and
he much pleased with his new charge
tlw Presbyterian congregation at Ilen
dejwonville. Rev. John F. Butt, who has been ab
sent from his pulpit at Calvary for three
Sabbaths has returned, and for several
nights past has preached to his people,
which has resulted in the conversion of
four persons. He will fill the pulpit to
day and night, and a gracious revival is
expected. Rev. E. A. Wingard will fill
the pulpit for him on Monday.
Rev Sam'l S Burton, a native of Leaks
ville, Rockingham county, and for the
past two years a resident of Fayette
ville,Tenn., died on his way from lieids
ville to his old home, last Monday after
noon, under circumstances of 'peculiar
sadness. He was a consumptive and
for the last several months had been
sinking rapidly under the power of this
dreadful disease. Having been told
that he had not long to live, he deter
mined if possible to reach his old home
and spend the last hours of his life
"among the hills of Dan." He arrived
at Reids ville in safety, and accompa
nied by his parents, his young wife and
a child eighteen months old, started
across the country. Let the Reidsville
Times tell the rest of the story : . "Sad,
sad, it was, as they crossed the bridge,
in a half mile of Xeaforville, in Jsight of
his old home, he drew his last breath,
and his spirit 'crossed over the river,' as
his body had just crossed the bridge.
The scene at the end of the bridge was
truly affecting. Amid the sobs of the
parents and the young wife, the old toll
keeper at the bridge, so infirm as to be
almost helpless, fell on his knees and
from his heart prayed eloquently and
earnestly. The good citizens of Leaks
ville came out in warmest sympathy
for the afflicted ones and escorted the
corpse into town."
Mr Burton was a graduate of
Davidson College in the class of '73,
standing far alove any of the members
of his class, and was the recipient of
the highest honors his literary so
ciety could bestow. Of all the young
men who ever left the walls of that in
stitution, none ever had fairer prospects.
Gifted with talents of the highest or
der, and with energy and determina
tion which brooked no barriers, gener
erous, open-hearted and brave, he could
not have failed to become a shining
light in the Church and a most useful
member of society. He was a true, un
selfish and devoted friend, and won the
esteem of all who knew him. A friend,
and a class-mate may be pardoned for
bearing this testimony to his worth.
Seeking a, Home of Refuge Help the
Fallen Women.
Yesterday morning a well-educated
woman, a native of this State and of
respectable parentage, arrived in this
city from Raleigh, and sent for Rev
Father O'Connell, of the Catholic
church. She informed the priest that
she had come here for information con
cerning a house of refuge for fallen wo
men. She informed him that she had
read an article in the Charlotte Obser
ver some time ago, and from her recol
lection of it, that there was such a place
here,and she had come all the way hither
under the impression that the priest of
Charlotte alone could provide her a
place. Father O'Connell explained to
her that there were such houses in sev
eral of the Northern cities, and yester
day afternoon she left for Baltimore to
enter the Magdalen's home there.
In speaking of the matter yesterday,
Father O'Connell said: " Since the pub
lication of the article in the Observer,
giving information in regard to asylums ;
lor iaiien women, nave1 Bent nve io
different institutions of this character,
and had I sufficient means, I could send
others. God bless the Observer for
having been the means of saving so
many.
He also says that there is a woman
in town now who is anxious to enter
one of these asylums but has not the
means of saving herself and could not
procure theni. I am sorry 'continued he,
"that my poverty prohibits me from re
lieving all. would it not De possiDte to
form a society of real genuine: chris
tians who would be willing to aid these
penitents? I make this suggestion to
you and have given you this informa
tion to use as you think best I may
be allowed to add that neither of the
two women .mentioned are Catholics."
We think the facts related above
ought to speak for themselves. We
commend them to the christian people
f Charlotte. , . ... ;

The Jewish Day of Atonement begins
this evening at sunset. "And the even
ing and the morning were the first day."
This solemn fast is held by the Israel
ites as the very holiest among holy
days. For twenty-four hours no food
nor drink is partaken of, and the con
gregation meet at the synagogues four
hours in the night and the whole of the
next day, and pray that the sins com
mitted in the past year may be forgiv
en. In every quarter of the habitable
globe every man or woman in whose
veins runs Jewish blood observes -Kip-pur,
and whoever does "hot fast bn! this
day thereby jprpclajms that he is ,outside
the pale of Judaism. ' Before the eve of
KiDDur. at least among the pious, all
animosities ar forgotten and forgiven
as no man dare implore iorgiveness oi
the Great Creator who cannot forgive
those by whom he may "have-' beeH in

. Judgment NUi Entered. , '-'
On the 13th of September the'follow
ing notice was published in the adver
tising columns of the Observer:
"There will be a convention j or con
ference of the National Party at Char
lotte on Saturday; October 5th, 1878, to
select a candidate for Congress. All
opposed to i the , Hon. W, L. f- Steele, -
w ueiner i auonais or omerwise, are in
vited to attend. By order of the Nation
al Executive Committee, of Cabarrus
county." "" .
The source from which the card ema
nated was not generally known at the
time, but the insertion of the clause in
viting all opposition to Steele to assem
ble itself and take counsel against him,
left no room to doubt that it came from
Republicans and that the whole thing
was a very thinly disguised plot against
the Democratic nominee of the sixth
district. Subsequent developments con
finned the suspicion of the public, as all
the readers of The . Observer know.
The genuine Greenbackers held aloof
from it because they disliked the source.
Republicans would not take hold be
cause there was not enough of solid
foundation in the plan proposed to insure
the defeat of the Democratic aspirant.
Still, Mr. W. W. Robinson, chairman
of the National executive committee of
Cabarrus county, ' persisted in calling,
the meeting. The hour was fixed it 1 :30
o'clock yesterday, and the place' the
court house in this city. An Observer
drifted around there- quarter of an
hour before the time and found the
door locked. Shortly afterwards two
horny-handed sons of toil walked up
turned-tliei knob, walked down and
looked bike they didn't know where to
o One of -the court house boys said
they did not .rbelong "to -Mecklenburg.
Then came Cbl.W. M.Coleman, Holders
attorney-general, and the originator of
this scheme of opposition to Steele. He
walked briskly up the court house steps,
and, finding the door locked, stepped,
back down and went in the lower part
of the building to see the boys. The
next person who came was Dr. R. M.
Norment, of Robeson, a Republican
member of the Legislature, who asked
with some show ot indifference what
had become of the Greenback meeting
to be held to-day. He then walked in
and joined Col. Coleman in the sheriff's
office where the two remained for about
a half hour, and then strolled back to the
hotel ; and this was all of the meeting.
The chairman of the national execu
tive committee was in the city, but so
far as we saw, took no part in the "con
vention or conference."
Later in the day Dr. Dick Norment
gravely told an anxious Republican
that there would not be a candidate in
the field as the result of yesterday's
meeting.
Cotton lCeceipfs Last Week.
Last week was a big week for cotton
in Charlotte, the- season considered.
The total receipts reached about
3,340 bales,;, as follow?: ' Monday and
Tuesday 450 each; Wednesday, 525;
Thursday, 70G; Friday, 682; Saturday,
527. The streets every day have been
blocked with cotton "wagons, up to 1
o'clock in the afternoon, and our mer
chants have driven a large trade both
in the wholesale and retail departments.
It has been the best week for business
ever known in Charlotte for the first
week of October.
Additional Fund Sent.
Mr. J. R. Holland,-cashier of the Mer
chants' & Farmers National Bank, yes
terday sent to New Orleans and Holjy
Springs the sum of $100 to be used for
the relief of the suffering which pre
vails in and around those places. This
money was contributed by Sunday
schools and private individuals, and is
independent of and in addition to the
$120 raised by the raffle of the two sew
ing 'niachines last week. This, there
fore, mtlkes $220 sent by Charlotte to
the fever districts during last week.
Kidinsr br Relays A Rapid Escape.
Day before yesterday morning Dr. J.
M. Strong, of Steel Creek, awoke and
found an unknown horse in the neighbor
hood of his house, and subsequently dis
covered that a mule had been taken from
his stable. He started in pursuit of the
thief, and found that he had' exchanged
the-mule for another belonging to Mr.
McGuire, who lives about three miles
belowfWright's ferry. It was now Mr.
McGuire's turn to enter the chase, which
he did with energy. He tracked the
thief about five miles in the direction
of Nation ford, when he suddenly came
upon the animal in the. road without
saddle or bridle. At last accounts the
mystery had not been solved. The horse
which was first seen in the neighbor-
nood of lrr. -Strongs was not caught,
and when last seen was coming back
towards the city.
