ODonoghue was called to see him yesterday and found that one of the bones of his arm was broken. Ma son says that the negro struck, at him with a rock which he held in his hand, and that in trying to defend himself he received the blow on his arm. He had previously had a difficulty with a negro up town and thinks that this must have been the man who waylaid him. Supreme Court Decisions.

"FJ our intelligent and wide-awake Columbia correspond ent, writes under date of the 6th as fol- ows: "The account in The Obseraer of this morning of the energectic action of your commuiees m inaKmg umeiy pre paration for the 20th of May, was read with much pleasure by manv who pur pose attending on this occasion. It is hoped the novel and charming teature of having ladies to join the brigade may be round leasible, and lead to the con sideration in our military circles of the propriety or securing to each company the valuable services of one or more ovely and bewitching 'daughters of the regiment Funds for the Poor and Where to Send Them. A strong appeal from the Relief As sociation was read in several churches Sunday in behalf of the destitute in the city. The appeal set forth the fact that there were a large number of applica tions, many of which came from persons who are sick or totally unable to work, and scarcely any of which the associa tion is able to respond to because it is without funds. Christian people were earnestly asked to aid this charitable work, and were miormed that contri butions lett with the followmg named persons would be properly applied: lieneral Treasurer or Keiier Associa tion, C. N. G. Butt, at Traders' National iank: treasurers in the city wards: Ward No. 1, W. N. Powers; Ward 2 Capt. S. Gr jse ; Ward 3, Rev. J. F. Butt Ward4,C.Hilker. Young L,adr Injured. Saturday afternoon Mr. J. W. Mc- Combs, his wife, Miss Ella Scarr, Miss Sallie McCombs, and a little daughter of Mr. A. R. Nisbet started to the coun try in a spring wagon. At a point three or four miles from the city, the rear seat on which were seated Miss Mc Combs, Miss Scarr and the little girl, tilted and threw its occupants back ward from the wagon. The two last mentioned escaped with comparatively slight injuries, but Miss McCombs was quite seriously nurt She received a severe cut on the nead and a pamtui injury in the side. Her physicians rear that at least two of her ribs were bro ken. She was brought back to the citv Saturday night and is now quite sick. The vehicle was moving very slowly when the accident occurred, but the road at that point is exceedingly rough. The Recent Success at the King's Mountain nine ' In reply to an inquiry as to the recent success at the King's Mountain mine, Mr. Arthur Macy gives a reporter of Tins UKsiiiiv n.u uie iouowing miorma tion : "We struck the front vein of ore which courses this property, on Mon day morning, March 31st, after toiling steadily for about htteen months, at a distance of about 130 feet rrom the shaft on the 270-foot level. The ore is of about the same character as was mined in the old works, excepting that it assays much higher, the assays rang ing from $15 to $147 per ton "of 2,000 pounds. The proportion of sulphurets is not great giving us a fine free mill ing ore. "The sulphurets of iron and copper, and telluride of lead, seem to be the foreign elements associated with the gold. It is well known that our shaft is very wet but our cross-cut to the vein has been dry .giving us no influx of water from the works, which we be lieve now to be about 35 or 40 feet above us. We have not as yet cut through the vein matter, and have a thickness of about 7 feet in sight We are now getting our mill ready to reap the re- w ard of our patience. Death In the Ilelnian Company. The Holman opera company having concluded their engagement in Green ville, S. C, arrived bere Sunday even ing at 6 o'clock and remained over, at the Charlotte Hotel, until 3.20 yesterday morning, when they lett tor .Lynch burg, Va. ; The route of this company, bv the wav. has been a remarkable one. instead or going up me ureenvme cc Columbia road from Columbia to Greenville, they came from Co lumbia to Charlotte, "went then down to Greenville, and jumped from Greenville to Lynchburg nearly 300 miles. But? what we started, to men tion was that a death occurred in the comnanv on the train between ureen- villa and Charlotte. Sunday afternoon Miss Julia's dog, a venerable bench-leg, with a very round head and a preter naturallv large stomach, had been ail ing forueveral davs. and in spite of all that could be done for his relief, he weakened and weakened and finally ?ielded up the ghost When the sad idincrs -were communicated) to Miss Julia, she lifted up her voice and ;wept copiously, and all hands on the train, even 'to the wood-passer on the engine, were visibly affected.

I have applied to him more than once, to consider the subject matter of the memorial and, if possible, to make an early and favorable report. lie lniormeo me mat me proposition was one which he could not favor, for the reason among others, that it con templated a mining board for onlq one section of country, and was a novelty in legislation which the committee would not approve, xnis cuiiuiusiuu x uum- municated to some parties in Charlotte long agoi and supposed that all could lrnowt.hat.

Tne Fevtiiral of tne Pawwrtr. u The Hebrew festival of tlie Passover began yesterday evening at sundown. The festival was instituted by Moses in commemoration of the Israelites re maining intact on the night of the de struction of the first bonv in Egypt immediately preceding the exodus from il A. A T T rf-V -I . .. mat country uvx, jlli). ungmaiiy it was observed by sacrificing passover lambs toward the evening of the 14th of the first Hebrew spring month (now Nisan) and eating them on the follow ing night, as well as by excluding all leaven from the meals, of that evening and the following seven days, the first and last of which were observed as holy. Since the final destruction of the temple of Jerusalem, the passover has been celebrated by eating unleavened bread during the seven (out of Pales tine during eight) days,- by abstinence from labor on the nrst and last (out of Palestine on the hrst two and last two) and by the observance on the first even ing (out of Palestine on the first and second) of various domestic rites com memorative of the deliverance from Egyptian bondage, including the re cital of Scriptural and lengendary nar,-. lauves ana iamniar conversation on the same national event and the chant ing of psalms. In the synagogues and tabernacles learned rabbis relate the miracles which effected the release of the Hebrews from the house of bond age and their exodus from the land of Egypt The divine promises made to the faithful are the subiect of exultant comment, and the rebuilding of the temple and their restoration to Pales tine, after more than a thousand years pilgrimage, far away from the Holy City, is drawing near to verify the prophecies they so firmly believe. Patriotism and Charity. To the Editor of The Observer: In vour paper of Sunday. I notice an account of a meeting held to arrange for the celebration of the 20th of May, and the appointment of committees to collect funds tor the same. While fully sympathizing with the patriotic feeling which seeks to keep in lasting remembrance the brave and glo rious deeds of those who laid the foun dation of our liberty and independence, it does seem to me that there are calls for funds which are infinitely louder and more pressing than any such cele bration. Every member of the relief association has, in the past three months been brought in contact with suffering, want and destitution in this city, which wrings the hearts of those who see it without having me means to relieve it. Repeated appeals -have , been made to our citizens, personally, and through your valuable paper ; committees have been appointed to solicit funds ; gen tlemen entreated to assist the associa tion bv collecting for it; and the result has been an amount not quite $200 rais ed, which has been expended in the re lief of over sixty cases, amounting to over one hundred and fifty persons; a treasury at this moment entirely empty, and at least thirty ' cases of extreme want appealing for assistance!! uoes not tms appeal oi living ana sui fering humanity at our doors, merit an swer ana relier. oeiore we unaertase to commemorate in Joyful d costly fash ion the deeds of those who have passed beyond the cares, the joys and the sc r rows of this life ? I trust the treasurers report at the next meeting of the relief association will show that while remembering with loving pride those who have passed away from us, we are sun as citizens and Christians, mindful of those, who; in the language of our blessed Savior, are "always with us."
