The mayoralty is now under discus m m at every street corner. The Hornets' Xe.st Riflemen will soon commence to drill regularly. A couple is registered at the Char lotte Hotel, "Stranger and wife, coun try." Almost a frost again yesterday morn ing, but the spring vegetables still nour ish. ' Chicken thieving still progresses with little variation. Several other roosts were robbed night before last. The stock law is so rigidly enforced in the city that several persons have taken down the fences around their front yards. Messrs. WUtkowsky Baruch were among the first wholesale merchants who had to pay $100 the sum charged for a drummer's license. The excellent rain of Saturday, fol lowed by the bright and pleasant weath er since, lias given the gardens a first- iv. te start, Peas and early corn in soma t the gardens are already well up. The children must not be down-hearted, but cheer up It is only nine months from to-day till Christmas, with pic nics, Sunday school festivals and cir cuses to intervene'. A meeting of the old members of (' mrlotte Lodge, Knights of Pythias, is v, anted this evening at 8 o'clock, at The Okskuver rooms, for the purpose of re viving the order in this city. See ad. It has been many a Sunday since the congregations at the various churches were larger than they were day before yesterdav. The services were all regu lar, and were conducted by the respec tive pastors. A countryman galloped into the city Sunday and reported to a surgeon that lie had just been thrown from his horse and had his arm broken, and that more ilian this, he had somewhere or other -:i the road lost his pocket-book with ". It was found upon examination that the arm had not been broken, and the bold rider thereupon started off in quest of his pocket-book. Whether he ever found it or not has not been learn--!. Personal. fudge Kerr's condition has not ma terially changed since our last report certainly not for the better. Mr. W. M. Warlick, of the Lincolnton Newt, was in to see us last night. Col. James Anderson, superintendent of the Spartanburg & Asheville Kail- load.and Col. T. D.Gillespie, supenn- loiKlent of this division ot the soutnern Kxpress Company's territory, were at tiie Central Hotel last night. A Suicide Induced by Bad Dreams. Mr. X. B. Howie, a respected citizen, committed suicide Sunday at his home t wel ve miles east of Monroe. Selecting ft very low limb, he placed a rope over "1 then tied his hands behind his back. When found he was in a kneeling atti ;mie, with toot and knee resting upon Uie ground conclusive evidence that he pulled his very life out by strangu lation. Unpleasant dreams which he has re cently had, are believed to have induced hint to take his life. Stealing I'iowerait I During the last four or. five days sev eral of the finest flower gardens in the itv have been robbed of some of their, choicest plants. -In two instances a clean sweep of every flower was made, many of them being torn up by the roots. The practice seems to , be grow ing. Persons who may be suspected of selling flowers which do not belong to them should be reported to the police, t( he investigated. This is the only way h suppress that which is a public and private wrong. -rand Opening. I L is announced 'elsewhere by adver tisement that thU large dry goods houso of Wittkowsky & Baruch will Iihvh their grand spring opening to-day. Mi". Baruch has just returned from a stay of several weeks with wholesale nit'i chants and manufacturers at the Xorth, and claims to have laid in a very lmge and elegant! stock, embracing 'ab solutely everything in the line of dry yoods. These will be tastefully dis pl iyed and shown to full advantage by polite and attentive clerks to-day, and the store will doubtless be crowded. ClaUIatX. Willi Her Irish Up. , , , Clubfoot Julia, who has for so long a time been enjoying the repose incident to tne.solitudei of private life, yesterday came to the front again, and afforded infinite amusement to the habitues of the cotton platform and the adjacent depots by the extreme celerity and grace which marked her movements, as, armed with a rock, she gave diligent cha tff Adam J, who-h4d; hjt Iter in tire mouth and was? escaping in the direction of Logtown. A Celctttial Picture. A celestial picture of unusual attrac tiveness was. visible . in , the western heavei about twilight' last etenifio- it was the conjunction of three of" the niost noted of s the heavenly bodies the moon. Venus and Mercury. The last named is an evening star just now. He reaches his greatest eastern elonga tion on the 29th, and is then in one of the most favorable' conditions- fot ob servation that will occur during the year. At this time, a few days before ana alter, he may be seen a little south of the point where Venus sets. On the I1 u 1sets about 8 'clek, an hour and a half after sunset; tluia an excel lent opportunity is afforded! for a; peep at the swift-footed and lierv planet. A C'liicken Firc a. Trap Citin. A citizen of "Smithville" set a trap gun in his back yard to catch thieves who might attempt to steal any of the blooded chickens which he raises. It is one of the kind that has four barrels at right angles to each other, and is so ar ranged that all the barrels are fired at one time. Sunday just after daylight the residents in the vicinity were 4ron&3 "by a trernendous explosio;aDd on investigation ifc waS'feanoMhat trig gun had been shot off by one of the chickens, the owner himself having failed to rise, as is his custom, before the early birds went out to search for the historic worm. Xo harm was done. A Celentlal Visitor Approaching. ' A comet is approaching the earth, and can be sejen with a telescope. It moves in an elliptical orbit, with a period of five and a half years, and its first appearance was nqted only thirty three years ago, and its present appear ance is the seventh time that it has been recorded. It will be nearest the earth on the loth of April, at a computed dis tance of about seventy-five millions of miles, so that there is not the slightest prospect of a collision. It has never re ceded from the earth much farther than the planet .Jupiter.- In 1851 it escaped observation, but in 1857 it was seen ris ing in the extreme southern horizon, reaching a brightness bringing it with in easy observation with an opera glass, and finally disappeared in the northern skv. Davidson's Annual Orator. Davidson College has been fortunate this year in the selection of the annual orator before the two literary societies at the next commencement, the second week in June Col. Duncan K. Mcliae, of "Wilmington has been chosen. Col. McKae's powers of oratory are known and recognized throughout Xorth Caro lina, and will draw a large crowd to the college this year. The societies at Da vidson seem at last to have hit upon the light principle to govern them in the selection of their annual orators. For years past they have sought to bring to the college noted politicians of other States, and these have almost invariably declined or failed to appear after hav ing promised to be present, and the re sult has been that some one of the pro fessors or some friend of the institution has consented to come in at the eleventh hour and fill up the 'awful gap -"which the failure of the principal event of the occasion must produce. Col. McHae will make an address not inferior to that which could have been expected from any one whose services could have been secured, and in addition to this is agentleman-aXorth Carolinian whom the college should delight to honor. A Rope-Walker Sensation. Xext to a circus a rope-walker can collect a larger crowd than any other sort of exhibition. Prof. Dare", tasted his powers in this particular yesterday, and drew very well. The rope was stretched from the top of the Springs building to the garret windows in Wris- ton & Co s. building on the opposite side and on this the professor went through the usual antics of the rope-walker, after which he executed some grace ful turns on the flying trapeze. The professor has been engaged in the ele vated business of walking ropes for eighteen years, and during that time has learned a thing or two, the most important of which is to take up his collections before the performance be gins. After displaying his shapely pro portions in the summer costume of a circus man, and thereby drawing the crowd close about hira, he, suddenly darted through it with his box, beTore they exactly knew what was up. He hardly got more than 5 from the per formance. Ttift lvrofessor intended to have re peated his performance at p. m. but the city marshal ordered him to take down his ropes or pay the tax of $10 charged for "public exhibitions," under which rope walking could be classed. The professor said he would rather take down than set up, and forthwith took his leave. Railread Xotea and iOf.ii. An unsuccessful attempt was made last Friday afternoon to throw a train of cars from the track of the Atlanta & Charlotte Air-Line Railroad near Ponce de Leon Springs, just out of Atlanta. A negro woman has been arrested on the testimony of a ten-year-old colored boy, who says the woman made him put fence rails on the track. An engineer, car coupler and switch man on the Charlotte, Columbia & Au gusta Railroad lost their jobs Saturday evening for a run-off while shifting in the vard in this crtv, the accident de laying the transfer of the sleeper to the Richmond & Danville road. The Richmond & Danville day ex press left here last baturdayevening be hind time, lost five minutes at Concord, tefi at Salisbury and still made up fifty minutes between Charlotte and Greens boro, and that too, on a pretty fast schedule. Capt. Dick Spraggins was the conductor and Engineer Billy est was at the throttle. There is talk of new engines to oe gotten before long for the Air-Line. It is stated by the Wilmington Sun that the summer schedule will soon go into effect on the eastern end of the Carolina Central, the trains leaving here in the evening and arriving in the morning. It is related that a few days ago a train on the Air-Line Railroad pulled up at Toccoa, Ga at the same time with the train on the narrow gauge, railroad which runs to Toccoa, whereupon the a ir.i in ri!rinpfr r.allad ud to the nar row gange engineer, Drive your little ,nif on and let it suck: I'll wait on it. An extra train is running daily -on the A'l-.iit;-. Tennessee & Ohio Rail road for ihe purpose of hauling guano, of which there is more for transporta tion than the regular mixed freight and passenger can get away with. Ihe like was never known before. The fer tilizers are not onlv for StatesvUle and stations in Iredell but for points all along the Western Xorth Carolina Rail road. Some of the people on the latter road are getting alarmed. A citizen of Catawba says the rain will wash all the guano into the Catawba river and the fish will he killed. Sale of (he Clt jr .Klill. , The city mills were sold at public auction yesterday under execution by the Traders' National Bank, and were bought in by Mr. J. W. Wadsworth for $5,500, this' being the only bid made. The building 'isr a' substantial one, the mills are well equipped, and the proper ty ought to be valuable. We are in formed that the, price paid much more than covers aTJ the dairds-against it. Womet'tt Head 6 ear.' t 1 - . This is emphatically the season when the subject of hats and bonnets is up permost among the ladies. A fashion writer says that out of the chaos of millinery into which the f eminine.mind has been plunged for the past two or three seasons, something definite has at last been evolved. It is the square cornered and -open trimmed ;bonnet, to which the fashion has been gradually tending, but wljichvhas pnly been one among many other shapes, each of which has had its admirers and adhe rents, and all of which have been con sidered equally desirable. The shape, although virtually the same as that of last winter, is larger and somewhat more pronounced ; more like the bon nets of fifteen years ago, and yet with out their exaggerations. One thing can be said to their credit ; they are almost universally becoming, very few looking otherwise than well on any face. The old-fashioned straw bonnet is not seen at all now, but in its place comes the soft chip, which is infinitely more graceful, and in the" natural and beige or pale graytints ire exquisite in them selves. Soft silks, almost crepe in tex ture, rich, yielding ribbons with solid centres and brocaded edges, Breton lace finely pleated, and masses of tiny flow ers, are used for trimming. Hound bats are never out of fashion, no matter how much the bonnet may be in. For the country, for morning and for ali very informal occasions the hat has a place of its own from which it cannot be pushed It has become a necessity ; there'3 icdignity and a formality about a bonnet which the hat does possess, and it is unsuited for informal occa sions. Besides, there is a comfort and convenience about a hat which is pos sessed by no other article of out-door wearing apparel. Large brimmed hats, caught up with wild flowers, will be worn by young ladies for the country, while for traveling purposes and for ladies who have passed the age when broad brimmed hats are allowable, there is the lady like, modest and al ways becoming English walking hat, than which there's nothing in the world prettier or more graceful. These come in chip in all colors, and are trimmed with a soft scarf, carelessly wound about it, and a straight wing or cock's plume. AVeatlier Iteporfv, Prediction and Verification. Sergeant O'Donoughue has received the printed monthly weather report for .February, issued from the war depart ment. From this report it appears that the detailed comparison of the tri-daily weather indications as sent out from Washington with the telegraphic re ports of the state of the weather for the succeeding twenty-four hours, show that 92 pe'r'cent. of the prophecies were verified. The indications which are pub lished in The Obsekver daily are, as is generally known, based upon the tele graphic reports from all the signal sta tions, and are made for territories, as for instance the X'ew England States, the South Atlantic States, West (Julf States, c. ; but in addition to this each signal officer is required to make his own predictions for his particular sec tion. Sergeant O'Donoughue's predic tions for February failed only once. The almost absolute certainty with which these predictions can be made is marvelous indeed. The study of mete orology has brought the science to a de gree of perfection which a half century ago would have seemed nothing short of miraculous. Xowhere is the science receiving so much attention or been practiced with better success than in the United States, as the following from a paper sent to the signal station here will show : "The permanent committee of the Vienna Meteorological Congress have just paid the United States the high compliment of recommending to a pro posed second congress the adoption throughout the world of a plan for ex changes of data for simultaneous weather maps or other purposes, similar to one hist organized for the United States by (Jen. Myer, the chief signal officer, in 1S73, and which has been con tinuously pursued by the signal service to this day. For nearly six years this exchange, originated and con ducted by the signal seruice of the Uni ted States, has been perfectly successful, almost every civilized nation north of the equator has taken part in it. It has made possible for the first time in the history of the world the preparation of a daily simultaneous map of the north ern hemisphere, at "Washington, (this also is sent to each observer,) and has probablv advanced the study of practi cal meteorology as far as any one 1111- j dertaking in the last century." ! Take the news home to Mary and tell her that my cough has gone, and that a 25c. bottle of Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup did it. We shall never cease to endorse the good quali ties of Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup; for without Its good effect our paper would have been short of reading matter this week; we had a shocking cough.
