On the 22d of September last, in putting on a new dress, THE DAILY OBSERVER adopted the ride to exclude all double column advertisement and au cuts. After five months of experience, we we decided to toned the rule. Double column advertisements neces sitate the cutting of column rules, and these wfU be charged twenty-five per cent more titan our regular rates, and vriU only be inserted on the first tmd fourth pages of the paper. The recent chmget in the ar rival and departure of mau make it necessary that changes in contract advertisements be sent mby three o'clock in the afternoon. Index to New AdvertlMniiat Dr. Wm.

A .Tlarriae la tbe Cuutrjr. A very pleasant event occurred in this county on Wednesday, the 19th tne marriage of Dr. Jno. K. Irwin to Miss Maggie Henderson, daughter of the late Dr. J. McKnitt Henderson, at the residence of ; the bride's mother. The ceremony was performed rjy Rev. G. D. Parks. The bridesmaids were Misses Mary Davidson, Fannie Hen derson, Lula Pharr. Nellie Stirewalt. Sue Henderson and Julia Stirewalt. and the ushers were Messrs. Ed. Hen derson and John Pharr. The-wedding march was played by Miss Mollie Pharr. Alter the. ceremony an elegant supper was served to the cruests and the even ing passed off delightfully to all present un tne xouowing day the company were entertained at dinner bv the groom's mother. A Crying Evil. . It would appear. that after the fre quent warnings they have had, -people ought ny trus tune to nave learned never to empty not ashes into a wooden box and leave it - sitting inside of a house ; but they have not, as we have recently had occasion to demonstrate. The multitude of laws under which we live are rendered necessary by the ignorance and criminal carelessness of tne people, ana it sometimes appears that we need even more than we have. Carelessness should be put in the same category witn wantonness ana some provision snouia ue maae ior geiung a grip on a criminally negligent person who may bring about a disastrous con flagration or otherwise occasion a great public loss by a reckless disregard of the plainest dictates of common sense. An Aclar'a Troable. An exchange states that Mr. Charles A. Stevenson, husband of Miss Kate Claxton. did not leave Atlanta with the company for Montgomery, but depart- ea me aay ioiiowing, going uiruugn to New Orleans, where he will join the company. It is stated that he received a telegram while in Atlanta, from Montgomery, stating that if he came there he would be arrested on a war rant charging him with assault and riarAVtr it appears some time since ne resented an Insulting remark which JTo ma kw xfATitwomArv to Miss Claxton, by striking down the offender with a large walking stick. Mr. Stevenson happened ; in some way to-avoid arrest until he left the city, and the citizen upon hearing that he was on his way to Montgomery got his warrant ready -with which to capture Stevenson upon his arrival.

A JTsckoHhe-Laniern Fools an End neer Last Saturday night, it will be re membered, was wet and extraordinarily dark. Between 8 and 9 o'clock the en gineer of the shifting enerine in the yard of the Kichmond & Danville Railroad, in this city, was brincrinsr some cars un from the junction to the depot. He was running nis engine backwards and wlun . ii r if. i ucitr me uarouna central crossing saw a red light on the track waving him down. He stopped short, like grand father's clock, and presently the light waved him ahead. He followed it slowly and cautiously, and after leading him along about a hundred yards it dis- appearea as suddenly as it had appeared to nim and left everything around as black as before. Then he realized what it was and brought his cars along into the city. bunday morning in shifting at the junction some of the cars broke loose and fourteen bumpers were broken. The mishap was instantly ascribed to tne evil spirit which had been seen up the track the night before. tm i At tne End of lh Docket. Among the appeals to the Supreme Court, set for hearing at the end of the docket, as published in the Raleigh Ob server, we notice the following among many others : v anng et als. vs. Wads- worth et als: S ten house & Macaulavvs. Davis et als. ; Caldwell vs. Neely ; Simp son, administrator, vs. Simpson etal: State vs. Hoke C. Secrest. The cases set at the end of the docket were to have been called peremptorily yesterday morning npon the assembling of the court. Those enumerated above are cases from Mecklenburg except that of lioKe v. fcteerest. which is ot interest throughout this entire section of the btate. it appeara trom the fact that it was placed at the end of the docket that upon the granting of the certiorari unon the first hearing, the papers were made returnable to the present term of the Supreme Court. So that if they are re turned, as ordered, a decision will be rendered in this case within the next few weeks and it will be known whether Secrest is to have a new trial or whether he will be re-sentenced at the next term of McDowell court. The Bay Orator. There was quite a remarkable per formance at the court house last night which, though very slightly advertised, was attended by quite a large crowd. It was the appearance of "the boy ora tor," little Eddie Hawkins. The little fellow is only six years and five months old, and really looks younger, being small for his age, with a very childish face, entirely unlike what would be ex- pected in a boy whose precocity is very remarkable indeed. He discourses on 'politics, education and science" with a fair expression and in first-rate lan guage. His father, who is an unedu cated man. and a native of Madison county, this State, says the boy has fixed 11 1 1 , 1. . up uiese speecnes nimseii, uemg a com bination of sentences that he has heard and read, which are put together with a good deal of ingenuity. He learned to read, almost without assistance, at four years of age. and even previous to this time had developed unusual powers of memory, lie readily repeats hve or ten lines after having heard them read one time, and, what is equally remarkable, accompanies the repetition with appro priate gestures. Mr. Hawkins says that he has anoth er child which exhibits similar powers ana another, which, to use his own words, does not seem to be able to learn anything at all. He is a poor man, and is allowing the boy to exhibit his pow era tor the purpose of making money to educate him. He has decided to give another exhibition at the court house to-night, and. in an advertisement to be found elsewhere announces that no charge will be made for admission, but a collection will be taken up after the performance. Those who heard the boy last night were very much pleased, and there will doubtless be a large crowd to hear him to-night. Who made that Noise? To the Editor of The Observer: In your Sunday paper you remarked that 44 it would be a very serious reflec tion upon the people of Charlotte that a musical soiree had to be stopped on ac count of noise made by the audience, were it not for the fact, which is admit ted, that only a small portion of the au dience wasrresponsibie ; for the. noiev These were mostly boys,coiiecxeaaDouj; the doors. Now. Mr;Editotf excuse me when I ask, Dont you wrong the boys ? I was present, and being very fond of music. was as much annoyed as any one possibly i could be by the noise, and maae, it my -business to observe who could be so im polite, to say the least of it, and must arnrni mac 11 wa nui uie wya wueuusu about : the. door, but that it was made mostly, by young ladies and their escorts of the so-called first society p also by ladies talking together iriore than by any boy there. - -. - - - JB BIENT OF THIS tKIYB. -J vTA School CelebraUon.

It was established by Capt Potts in 1875, and has now become the largest school in this portion of the county numbering about fiftv or sixty nunils so that the principal being compelled to obtain assistance, has secured the ser vices of a highly accomplished young lady of the town, and the academy may now boast ot its success and its natter ing prospects for the future. The build ing is well furnished with comfortable seats, maps, blackboards, &c, &c, and the well-written compositions, the neat dress and good behavior of the pupils all attest the excellence of the school;' ' : M.P.T.
