A Chatte After a Da light Thief. ' A wagoner 1'TcllTtandaiuf' in the rear of WittkQwsky &Baruch store yesterday, and on returning dis covered a negro in the act of stealing several packages from it. j The' - negro on finding that he was discovered, start ed through the t store with : the packages under his arm, and the owner thereof in pursuit The fellow was fol lowed so closely that he dropped the load m front of the store and darted up the flight of stairs over Harty's, making his way down the other flight into the back yard. Policeman Blackwelder and a crowd started in pursuit, with the own er of the packages in the lead. At this instant Policeman Stevens took in the situation, as he thought, and also start ed m pursuit of the foremost man who was trying to catch thenegro.the whole crowd going around the First Presby terian church yard square. Stevens finally hied off his pistol to make his man stop, but without effect. On everybody went, until the thief made the distance between himself and the crowd so great that he was lost to sight and the chase was given up. Another Cockiug Main North ta.ro. lina and Georgia. The Atlanta Constitution, of Wed nesday, says: "We learned on yesterday ot a main between the famous shawl neck cocks, of Georgia, and the clary eye, of North Carolina. These cocks have met before in hotly-contested mains, and the shawl-necks nave come off winners." We may stop here to say that the "clary-eye of North Carolina' is altogether a mythical bird. There is here a strain of cocks of which Mr. Edward Glavin, of this city, is the pa tron, called the flary eye. It is as game a bird as ever fluttered but the strain is not numerous, and they never met the shawl-necks in a main. Again : We had hardly supposed it would be neces sary to state it again, but for the truth of history we repeat that the shawl necks have never whipped the flary eyes nor any other lot of North Caro lina cocks in a main. In the main which was arranged between the two States, to take place in Charlotte last April, the Georgians backed down and paid the forfeit like men. The Constitution continues: "The North Carolinians, claim to have improved their breed very handsomely, and are now confident they can get away with the Georgia bovs It is said, indeed, that they have been breeding from the shawl-necks them selves." There is no shawl-neck blood in any of the birds which Holt and Ar lington will enter in the coming main. Their stock consists of Sim Jenkins grays, red quills, Irish reds and cripple tony grays. Our esteemed contemporary says fur ther: "It is said that the main is ar ranged for the 27th of April, and that it will last four or five days. The main will be a very hotly contested one if it is fought, and will bring hundreds of sporting men to the city. The figures for the main are put at $5,000 includ ing the wagers on the several fights." The Festival of Purlin. Although the festival of Purim be gins to-day, the Jews in many parts of the world began to celebrate it on Tues day night the begining of the feast of Esther. The feast of Purim derives its origin from the story of Esther, so beau tifully told in the Old Testiment, and is commemorative of the deliverance of the Jews through her instrumentality from the hatred of Haman. The date of this event is set down in the Jewish chronology' as 2232 years ago, or B. C. 3.:. The feast is preceded by the Fast of Esther, when the orthodox Jews ab stain from food and drink from sunset to sunset in celebration of the three day's fast of Esther before she present ed herself before Ahasuerus to defeat the plot of Hainan. Services are held in all the synagogues, and the book of Esther, termed in Hebrew the Megil lath, is read with appropriate prayers. Among some of the customs now ex tinct, save with the most ultra ortho dox or Polish Jews, is one that indica ted that forgiveness, is not one of the virtues of an Israelite's character. "Whenever the name oLHaman in men tioned in the reading of the book of Esther in these synagogues, ot which there are a number in this country, the worshippers beat their pews with their clenched fists, or even with ham mers with which they provide them selves, to show their detestations of Mordecai's enemy, after these 2000 years. This custom is considered as reprehensible by the congregation of other synagogues as it would be if per formed by any Christian church. On Wednesday and Thursday are the lesser and greater feasts of Purim. Purim is considered a day ot lestiviues and ereneral reioicing. Presents are dis tributed and masquerade balls and par ties are given. The Israelites of this city, as previously stated, will celebrate the occasion by a grand calico charity ball, to be given at Metropolitan Hall Monday night. Railroad matters.

All the line . between Mooresville and Third creek station is under contractf and several miles of it have been graded. The people of Mocksville, who have been for years clamorous for a railroad, have taken hold of the work with all the zeal and energy of a thrifty and en terprising people. We understand that Davie county will unhesitatingly vote an appropriation of $50,000 to aid in purchasing the rolling stock, building bridges, depots &c. that in fact the people are determined that the road shall reach Mocksville, if it never goes, a foot beyond. , L A Columbia writer in the Charleston News & Courier says: "The Spartan. burg& Asheville Railroad is neither dead nor sleeping, j I am informed by the best authority that it is fully intend ed to 1 av l:;c track from its present ter minus tl Hendersoh, and the necessary ! steps have been already taken to secure the raus ana piace iuem m joiuwii el.

SUPERIOR COUKT. - ThePetfael Case PotpoHed Till Mon dayThe Jenkln Case frlfedi -When Judge Kerr took his seat on the bench yesterday morning and asked the solicitor if he was ready to proceed in the case of the State vs. Geo. PetheL f or murder, set f or a hearing at that hour, the court room was crowded with eager faces. The prisoner had already been brought in, and was sitting quiet ly in the felon's box. In answer to the judge's question, the State was an nounced to be ready for trial, and when the defendant was called on, Col. Arm held, of his counsel, read an affidavit setting forth that certain witnesses,who were very material to the case, were absent, from what cause the counsel did not know, and asking for a contin uance of the case on this ground. The affidavit also set forth the facts which it was proposed to prove by the absent witnesses. The solicitor objected to a continu ance on the ground that the case had already stood on the dockets for over twelve months, and had been twice re moved ; that the State had put itself to great inconvenience and trouble to have all the witnesses present. He did not demand speedy trials in all cases, pre ferring a sufficient delay to allow of the removal of the first impressions af ter a homicide had been committed, which nearly always judged the accused more harshly than he deserved, but thought the delay had been long enough. To this Col. Armfield replied that a special order had been procured from the court in Iredell compelling the wit nesses to be present at this term of the court, and he could not tell why they were not present, except in one instance, that of a witness named Swink. The sheriff of Cabarr us.evidently misreading the name, had returned the paper with the statement that no such man could be found. Judge Kerr: "It is a great pity that the clerk of Iredell can't write. Col. Armfield : " May it please your honor is not exactly the case. It is the sheriff of Cabarrus who can't read." Judge Kerr: "Gentlemen, I am op posed to further delay. I cannot con tinue the ease, but am willing to hold it over till Monday, and will issue capi ases for the witnesses." The clerk was ordered to issue the ca piases, and the sheriff directed to have them delivered to the sheriff of Cabar rus. Judge Kerr then asked the solicitor if he was prepared to try any other capital cases, and after some delay it was announced that Tilt: CASE OF ISAAC JENKINS, COLORED, charged with the murder of Jim Ross, colored, in the city ot Charlotte, on the 17th of October, 1878, could be taken up. Messrs. Osborne & Maxwell and Judge Bynum appeared for the accused, and Solicitor Montgomery represented the State. Jenkins was brought into court and arraigned, and after an hour and a half spent in selecting a jury, the following were announced as having been chosen : J. B. Swan, W. L. Boyd, H. L. Suggs, T. Y. McConnell, C. B. Hoover, F. W. Ah ren, W. B. Nisbet, AV. D. Stewart, T. S. Cooper, II. T. Butler, E. T. Henderson, and J. F. Johnston. There were only three or four wit nesses to the difficulty, all introduced by the State, and their story may be briefly summed up as follows: At quite a late hour of the night the accused found his wife on the street talking to Jim Boss, the deceased, and command ed her to go home, at the same time charging her with having left two or three of their children locked up at home, and with turning the other out of the house. The wife appealed to another negro woman, who was standing by, to prove that she had done nothing of the kind, whereupon insulting epethets were applied to the woman by Jenkins, and upon her hurling back the charges against him, he struck her. Jim Boss here interfered, and he and Jenkins got into a difficulty. Jenkins finally cried out. "You have cut me," to which Ross replied, "You have cut me, too." Jenk ins two or three minutes afterwards 11 1- - i- 71 J 1 1 1 i M inrew a iock ai jlvoss aim kiiockcu nun down. Here the difficulty ended. Dr. Gregory, who was called to see Ross on the following day, testified that he found the skull fractured, and dress ed the wound. Several weeks after wards, Ross died. He gave it as his opinion, that while Ross might have lived had he carefully followed the physician's directions, the primary cause of his death was the wound. The speeches of the counsel, Messrs. Osborne and Bynum, for the defence, and Solicitor Montgomery for the pros cution, were very brief, the defence sul mitting to the charge of manslaughter, and arguing the case from this stand point, although Judge Bynum, towards the close of his sieecn, argued that even manslaughter did not clearly appear from the testimony. Judge Kerr charged the jury to re turn a verdict of manslaughter, and while they were deliberating over the' matter in the jury-box, the prisoner's counsel submitted to this verdict. The sentence was not pronounced. It was halt past 5 o clock when the trial was concluded, and the court ad journed for the day. Capture of a Conptrator After Two Year. A day or two ago Sheriff Alexander received from J. J. AV aid, a citizen of Darlington, S. C, a letter referring to a diabolical arson committed in his town. about two vears atro. under a conspira cy in which ten negroes were engaged, T n i i.a .1 ..4- six oi wnom were caugui aim convict ed. He inclosed a letter written from Alexaudriana, in this county, by a ne gro who signs himself as E. G. Smith, to relatives in Darlington, which was accidentally found in that town. Mr. Ward writes that from all that could be ascertained there, the fellow's real name is Dogin Flinn, who' wa$ '0Tie of the conspirators and tor wnose capture a reward of $50 is offered. Mr. Ward's letter gives a full description of Flinn, even as to a peculiar scar on his face, and E. G. Smith's letter to his friend in Darlington, which Mr. Ward inclos ed, incidentally mentioned that he had cut his foot so badly that he was unable to walk. The sheriff turned the letter over to Mr. W. M. Abernathy, who lives near Alexaudriana, wnn mstrucuous to in quire in the neighborhood for a negro ill I it 1 1 A A A. J-l. n wno niiea tne uescnpuou given, fc same time deputing him to arrest the negro if found. Mr. Abernathy had no difficulty in at once identifying the ne gro, beyond a question of a doubt, the cut foot betraying him at once, and ac cordingly effected his arrest. He was brought to this city, ana now awaits a requisition from the governor of South Carolina. ' i i ' United State Board of Trade Ap pointment of Delegate. A telesram received vesterday af ter- noon by S.Wittkowsky, Esq., president of the Charlotte Chamber of Commerce, from His Excellency Gov, Jarvis, stated that a meeting of the United States board of trade will be held in New York city on Wednesday next, the 12th inst, and requested the appointment of a delegate frdni the chamber of commerce of this city to attend the meeting. The board of directors was thereupon sum moned, arid at a meeting held at the chamber of commerce rooms last night, Gen. Thos. F. Drayton was appointed the delegate to represent , the interests; of .Charlotte on tke occasion , indicated, No MedlCiM Has ever been Invented to' oretent death!

Smart, of RutherfoifWttlJfeftee,and found that it was pure brass, came up yesterday to appear against Smart be fore the mayor. The trial was had at 1 o'clock. It was shown that Smart and one or two others have been practicing this fraud quite extensively in South Carolina. Th. method, of ,. propeedir.g seems to have" been to procure from machine shops or elsewhere a quantity of brass filings, which were wrapped in Bmall papers and sold at the usual price for gold , dust. The assayer, Col. Cowles, gave"' it as his opinion that these filings were calculated to deceive any one not an expert. This gentle man also had in his possession, while the trial was going on a package of this same stuff, which he had just received from a citizen of Chester by express, being valued at &150, but- which in reality is not worth twenty-five cents. Smart was of course recommitted to jail to await trial by the Inferior Court. It is learned that he attempted to prac tice the fraud upon several citizens of this place, but failed, as thev were not buying gold at that time. Col. Cowles is awaiting further returns from South Carolina and is prepared to count them out as rapidly as they come in.

The pains through the right lower ribs, side and shoulder blade, the nausea, furred state of the tongue, and unpleasant breath which indicate liver complaint, in short all its disagreeable concomitants are soon remedied by this sovereign corrective, which In ad dition to its regulating properties is a superb in vlgorant, and a pure l and jjreeable jnedlcinal stimulant, appetizer and nervine. , i I I j i . ' Good cheer for Consumptives. There is a form of consumption which was better Indicated by the old fashioned name of "decline." It Is the dreaded scourge of some parts of the Southern States, claiming more victims every year than are swept away by the most terrible visitations of the yellow fever. The malady arises from the Inability of the patients' system to take up and as similate the nourishing ingredients of the food that is ea(en. Some years ago the medical profes sion with remarkable unanunlty, agreed that Cod Liver Oil contained the most concentrated and easily absorbed elements of nutrlUon. If the nau seous taste and smell of the oil could be avoided it would unquestionably be the most sovereign reme dy that ever shed a healing blessing on the human race. And these repulsive properties are success fully removed by the union of pure Cod Liver Oil with the Hypophosphites of Lime and Soda in Scott's Emulsion. The combination is a most ele gant one, pleasant as sweet milk In flavor, conge nial to the stomach, and acting directly as a power ful yet gentie tonic of the brain and nervous sys tem. A Legitimate Triumph In Medicine. Dread and despair fall upon the community when a terrible epidemic like the cholera or yel low fever, suddenly desolates our homes: yet, all the while, a more insidious, but no less fatal foe, enters thousands of households every year and carries off the flower of the family in the early flush of manly youth and budding womanhood. People call it consumption, or "decline." H is not, in most cases, the tubercular phthisis or consumption of the lungs, whieh is the peculiar malady in cli mates like those of the British Islands and New England, but a general decay or arrest of the vital processes of nutrition. All the doctors agree that there is no remedy for this but Cod Liver Oil but they are constanUy met by the obstacle or inability on the part of the patient to swallow or retain it This repulsion Is entirely overcome by Scott's Emulsion of the Oil with the Hypophosphites of Lime and Soda which Is agreeable to the taste.and an unequalled nutrient and tonic for the body nerve and brain, Ease Attainable by the Rheumatic.

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.
