A new organ-grinder, without a mon key, came in upon us with the new year. It is hardly possible for even the streets of Charlotte to become more slushy than they are at present. Quite a number of the clerks employ ed for the busy season, received their walking-papers yesterday. The congregation of Calvary church watched the new year come in and hailed its coming with song and praise. Yesterday being a legal holiday every where explains the absence of tele graphic market reports from this morn ing's paper. - According to the ancient superstition t he year is to be rainy, cloudy and dark. This is what yesterday was to Char lotteans. The loss bv fire in Charlotte during the last year has not been over $1500 ac cording to the estimate of aii insurance man. Ladies will sell tickets for the ama teur theatrical performance on the night of the 10th of January for the benefit of the Lee monument. The members of the Gounod musical club are notified to meet this evening at the hall of the Young Men's Christ ian Association. The "church going lMls" rang well nigh in vain last night. The prayer meetings in the several churches were very slimly attended. As the rains descend and the floods come, reports of the horrible condition of the public roads begin to come up again from the granger element. Cock fighting has been quite lively in Tom Black's pit during the holidays. Many a gallant rooster has died for the amusement of his country. The dramatic club is called to meet to-night at the residence of Gen. John A. Young, at 7.30. A full and punc i mil attendance is earnestly desired. Mrs. ( has. II. Elms, corner of B and Fifth streets, offers special inducements t ( 1 Kirders. There are few .more desir :ille hoarding places in the city. An emigrant ticket agent reports that a great many more persons left the State year before last up to the first of Janu ary than emigrated last year. We are asked to say that if the bad weather continues hacks 'will calV for the young ladies who expect to attend the hop jo be given at the residence of Mrs. Williamson to-night. : --- A "bush court," f or.the possession! the ground floor of the Springs building, n Trade street, known as "Our House, will be the event in judicial circles to day. It turns out that the wound inflicted upon the throat of the young man in an ari'rav near Cherrvville. Gaston county, a few (lavs asm. is not dangerous. He is up and about. - . ; There is at least one man in town who appreciates The Observer as a man should. He says that as soon as he finishes one day s paper he gets so scared he will die before the next day's issue that he don t know wnat zo ao. The banks being closed and the num bers of turnouts carrying the young gentlemen ot the city to ana iro on their new year calls, were all there was to indicate that vesterdav was . more than an ordinary day. , . i Xothing' was heard by Dr. Gibbon, vesterdav. from the voung man who w as shot, some days ago, in Rock Hill, S. C, and from this it is supposed that there is no change for the worse in his condition. , Prominent among the manv callers wAi) were abroad yesterday was the in sinuating young manj who disliked very mucii to trouble yon, pw wouia De greatly obliged tor the amount oi piat little bill. ; : : - ' The citv marshal' rennrts that there lias been more- stealing in .Charlotte during the past three weeks than during me wnoie year.

The French cook had gotten in some of his best work, and the large crowd tarried lone around the dining tables. The bill tf fare, exhibiting an unusual variety, was printed on silk, and the meal, with all of its accompaniments, et cetera, was as recherche as has ever been seen even in this first-class house which serves so many elegant dinners. Undirected Postal. .Now here is Mattie; sue writes a note to "dear brother." telling him that she came up last night, and all that sort of thing, and then dropped it in the postoffice without putting her dear brothel's name on the back of it. Truer to his custom of sending to The Ob server everything that he doesn't know whatelse to do with,the postmaster has dropped this postal in our box and it is held in this office to await identi fication. Word of Commendation. The Observer never before received so many words of commendation and compliment as it has done within the past four months, nd if its Yanity-wfft be pardoned vet another time it : will make the following extract from the letter of an esteemed friend at Shelby, who writes enclosing a check to renew 'his subscription: ".Permit me Lo advise you tnat no man in North Carolina puts a higher estimate on The observer than my self. 1 noticed with much satisfaction the many compliments bestowed on it during the year, and beg to add that I heartily endorsed them all. "Hoping that the year which we are now entering may be a prosperous one to you individually, to The Observer and to the State at large, 1 am, very re spectfully, &c Business Note. Mr. R. E. Miller retires from the firm of R. M. Miller & Sons, and is succeed ed by Mr. R. M. Miller, Jr. Messrs. R. M. and R. E. Miller constitute a firm for the manufacture of tobacco. Mr. J. M. Mendel has moved his cigar store into Baumgarten's saloon, oppo site the Central Hotel, and the store lately occupied bv him will be taken as a drug store by-Dr. Scarr, agent. - Tiddy & Bro., having moved into the store in the Central Hotel building next door to the hotel office,.!. H. Law, crock ery dealer, will occupy the old stand of the book store. ;Tlie cotton men have begun to pay the purchase tax recently declaredoy the State treasurer to be due from them, but they only consent to pay for the year 1878, and do this under protest. The presumption is that they propose to contest the right of the State to impose the tax under the existing laws. Uranine An Interesting Experiment. The substance known as uranine is said to be the most highly fluorescent body known to science, and it very ikely is. We have specimens of it from Messrs. Munn & Co., publishers of the Scientific American, New York, and rom Messrs. Stafford, Caldwell & Co., of Hairisburg. A most interesting experi ment, which anybody may try, consists in sprinkling a few atoms of uranine upon the suface of water in a glass tumbler. Each atom immediately sends down through the water what appears to be a bright green rootlet ; and the tum bler soon looks as if it were crowded full of beautiful plants. The rootlets now begin to enlarge, spread and com bine, until we have a mass of sott green- colored liquid. Viewed by transmitted lght, the color changes to a bright golden or amber hue: while a combina- n ot green and gold will be realized, according to the position in which the glasses held. For a dav or evening ex periment nothing can be prettier than these trials of uranine, which are es pecially entertaining for the young folks. The editors ot the Scientific Am erican are sending out specimens, free of charge, to all their readers. The sub scription to the paper is $3.20 for a year, or 351.60 halt year, and a better invest ment for the money could hardly be named. Mr. Baupi and Juliufr Caesar. ' It gives us the most unqualified plea sure to oe. able to state definitely that Mr. F. C. Bangs, the most renowned actor of the classical-historical charac ter of Marc Antony of the "English speaking stage, will certainly appear in, this city in a short timer either during the present month or next. Mr. 'John Ford, under whose management Mr. Bangs is traveling the present season, writes to Mr. H. C. Eccles, proprietor of the Central Hotel in this city, convey ing this information, and enclosing cir culars. There is no play more grand than Julius Caesar; there was no char acter m wrhose mouth Shakespeare put such grandly eloquent speeches as in that of Marc. Antony. Julius Caesar has never been present ed here, It will draw immensely. By Mr. Ford this season it has been power fully cast. Mr. Thos. W. Keene, who las distinguished himseir in that part, will give us his interpretation of Cas- sius ; Marcus- Brutus will e represent ed by Mr. R. 1 , Downing ;and Julius Cfesar bv Mr. Geo. Hoev. TheDiav will be produced here with appropriate cos- tumes, special scenery and historical insignia, and notwithstanding the first class talent that has been seen on our, boards this winter, this promises to be the dramatic event or the season. The Com injr Convention, of Northern Men Residing: South Widespread publicity continues to be given to the meeting of Northern men now residing in the South, which meet ing is to be held in this city on the 15tbr inst., and Mr. uumont aireaay nas as surances that at least One hundred dele gates will be in attendance.

Griffy'n Production. Not content with distinguishing him self in the production of potatoes, Grif- tv has turned his attention to the rais ing of hogs, and recently killed a shoat 18 monthB old, weighing 270 lbs.: an other of the same age, weighing 218 fts ; and one 6 months of age, weighing 122 lbs. Griffv's potatoes are famous: he has pushed the best farmers close on turnips; his pigs are of remarkable weight for their ages, ana he has a cu cumber which is no slouch in point of size. ' Destruction of a Barn by Fire. Yesterday morning about 5 o'clock the" barn on the premises of Dr. Daniel Asbury, two miles northwest of the city, was totally destroyed by fire. In the early part of the night a quantity of bed- Clothing which was kept in the barn, probably for the reason that some one slept there, was discovered to be on fire, but the flames were put out and it had been supposed that the fire had been entirely extinguished until the family was awakened by the flames in the early hour of the ; morning. No stock was lost in the fire, the origin of which, in the early part of the ''night, is as yet unexplained. ,". Thermometer Record. 1 The following will show the state of the thermometer, at the stations men tioned, at 4.31 yesterday evening, Wash ington mean time, as ascertained from the daily bulletin issued from the sig nal office in this city : Atlanta 48 Jacksonville 68 Key West 80 Mobile ....62 Augusta 45 Charleston 57 Charlotte 41 Corsicana 56 Montgomery New Orleans Punta Rassa. Savannah . . . St. Marks ..55 ..53 .73 ..57 .67 Galveston 50 Havana 76 Indianola 55 Concert Postponed. On account of the very inclement weather, the children's concert, which was to have been had last night at Cal vary Mission church, was postponed un til Saturdav. An inpromptu stage had been arranged in such a manner as to meet the wishes of the manager, Mr. A. L. Butt, but it was deemed inexpedient to draw the children out from their homes in such weather as prevailed last night. Those who attended this con cert at Tryon Street M. E. church Christinas night, were delighted no less than surprised at its excellence, and a large crowd will doubtless attend its repetition. Personal. It is learned here that Judge Ashe has been quite ill at his home in Wades boro, but at last accounts was recov ering. He will, however, not be able to be present at the opening of the Su preme Court Monday next. Ihe Wilmington Star savs some twenty gentlemen or more, by invita tion of Mr. George Chadbourn, partook of an elegant supper given at his resi dence last Friday evening in honor of Kev. Dr. Hepburn, who formerly had charge of the First Presbyterian church in that city. Col. T.Stobo Farrow, editor of the Spartanburg (S. C.) Herald, was among Jesterday's arrivals at the Central lotel. Col. Chas. Baskerville, a native Caro linian, now a resident of Dallas, Texas, was in the city yesterday. Col. Basker ville is now connected with the Texa3 Pacific Railroad. New Year's Day How it was Obser ved Socially. From a meteorological point of view the first day of the new year was as dis mal and dreary as it is possible for a winter day : to ; be, vX socially it was one of the gayest and most delightful Charlotte society has ever known. Gradually the very pleasant custom of social visits of gentlemen among their friends and acquaintances has come into vogue until it is now fully estab lished.; Almost all of the young gentle men and several married men, wrho have not evidently abandoned the fe male friends of their younger days, were out, and the day was given up to social pleasures. The gentlemen went out in parties of two and four and extended the round of their visits far into the night All of the handsomest livery turnouts in the city were whirling through the streets all day, and among some of the special features was a team or four-m-hand and another hitched tandem. Many elegant private resi dencesand Charlotte is noted for the elegance of its private residences were thrown open to receive one after anoth er of the groups of callers. As the gen tlemen went irora one house to another in groups, so the ladies received in par- tfifc tf two, three, four and five, assem bling at some residence in the neigh; borhoo4 for this purpose. In addition to the Charlotte ladies. about a dozen visitors, including young ladies from Raleigh, Columbia, Colum bus, Ga., Haw River, Graham, Mor- ganton .Lincolnton,-Salisbury and else where received with their mends and 'added greatly to the pleasures of the numerous callers. The social festivities of the dav cul minated in an elegant reception at the residence of Mrs. S. V. Young compli mentary to the young ladies visiting in the household. The entertainment did not cease until the second day of the new year had begun. The nrst dav ot Januarv. 187U. will long rWremembered as one of the pleas- antestk socially,- -ever enioyea oy tne young people of Charlotte. A Pious Ffljoqr, A French tourist, who recently spent a couple of days in an Italian monastery situated on one of tbe wildest moun tains, relates the following anecdote: All tht brother ere-ioumt- ta-oe en gaged in some sort of Work-some wertf -I 1H searcil Ui miuwicugc turn uuicib weie occupied with manual labor.

The poor fellow who was told not to talk for fear that the people would find out that be was a fool, made nothing by the experiment. He was considered, a fooj because h , did . not talk on some subject or other. Every body must have something t to say, or give up society. Of course,' the topics of conversation will relate to the sub jects of knowledge. If a man is inter ested in science he will talk about science. If lie. is an , enthusiast in art he will talk- talk about artv If he is familiar with literature, and is an intelligent and persistent reader, he will naturally bring forward literary topics in his conversation. So with social- and religious questions. "Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh." That of which the mind is full, that with which it is furnished, will come out in expression. The very simple reason why the world is full of gossip is that" those who in dulge in it have nothing else in them. They , must interest themselves in some thing. They know nothing but what they leam from day to day in inter course with and observation of their neighbors. What these neighbors do, w hat they say, wrhat happens to them in their social and business affairs, what they wear, these become the ques lions of suprera e interest. The person al and social life around them this is the book under constant perusal, and out of this comes that pestiferous con versation which we call gossip. The world is full of it, and in a million houses, all over the country, nothing is talked of but the personal affairs of neighbors. What is the cure for gossip ? Simply culture. There is a great deal of gossip that has no malignity in it. Good-natured people talk about their neighbors because, and only because, they have nothing else to talk about. Gossip is always a personal confes sion either of malice or imbecility, and the young should not only shun it, but by the most thorough culture relieve themselves from all temptation to in dulge in it. It is low, frivolous, and too often a dirty business. There are country neighborhoods in wrhich it rages like a pest. Churches are split inlpieces by it. Neighbors make ene mies by it for life. In many persons it degenerates into a chronic disease, which is practically incurable. Let the young cure it while they may. 1UARKIED. bvt Dr. Miller, of Charlotte, on the 2tfth ult, Rev. M. R.

Yes, although they may despair of relief, it is attainable by rheumatic sufferers, for there is a remedy which carries off, by means of increased activity of the kidneys Important .channels for blood purification the acrid element to which pathologists the most eminent attribute the painful symptoms a theory completely borne out by urin ary analysis. The name of this grand depurent is Hostetters, a preparation likewise celebrated as a remedy for constipation, which causer contamina tion of the blood with the bile and a certain means of relief in dyspepsia, fever and ague, and nervous ailments. It is, perhaps, the finest tonic extant,- and is highly recommended as a medicinal stimulant by distinguished physicians and analysts who pronounce It to be eminently pure and very beneficial. The press also endorses It. An Astonishing Fact. A large proportion of the American people are to-day dying from the effects of DvsDeDsia or dis ordered liver. 1 he result oi these diseases upon the masses of Intelligent and valuable people is most alarming, making life actually a burden In stead of a pleasant existence of enjoyment and usefulness as it ought to be. There is no good rea son for this, If vou will only throw aside prejudice and skepticism, take the advice of Druggists and your friends, and try one bottle of Green's August Flower, jour speedy relief Is certain.
