Tne Prices of 1831.
From ah ''-old paper, issued in Char
lotte in October, 1831, we make a few
extracts from the market reports.
which are of interest as compared with
those of to-day, published in The Ob
server of tfiis morning. It is a little
singular that in many of the articles
tne prices are so nearly the same. Here
are a few of the articles with the prices
on the Fayetteville market: Bacon 9a
10: cotlee, 14al5: cotton, 8a8M; corn,
40; flour, 4a4); lard, 9al0; molasses,
32a35; oats, 28a30; wheat, 75; sugar, I
prime, 9, and lump, I5a20. The great
est ainerence is in tne price or peacn
and apple brandy, the one being 50 and
the other 40. In Charleston, at the same
date, prices ranged from 1 to 3 per cent.
higher. Most of the business of this
section, at that time, was done in Char
leston.

The Facts in the Cae. .
'Policemen tell a "Very -different story
relative to the waylaying of Mike Ma
son, the tailor, on the street Saturday
night, from that which he related to his
physician, and which was repeated in
yesterdav moraine's Observer. Po
liceman Famngton reports that Mason
was drinking, and. intact, was so drunk
that he (the policeman) had to take him
home. He says he found Mason near
the court house, holding an argument
wiui tne pump relative to his beinsr al
lowed to pass that point. The police
men further state that Mason was seen to
stagger and fall two or three times, and
they have no doubt that he broke the
bone of his arm in this way. They
would . not have, felt the necessity of
thus exposing him had he not misrepre
sented the facts in the case, thereby re-
necting upon tnein in their omcial ca
pacity. i i
In tbe Court.
Isham Fullenwider and Len Crockett,
both colored, were taken from jail and
arraigned betore Justice MciSiinch yes
terday, the one charged with the at
tempted robbery of Mr. F. Kuester, and
the other with an attempted burglary
upon .air. Kuester s store. They nave
had several hearings before the magis
trate, but have repeatedly been recom
mitted in the. hope that evidence might
be adduced which would involve other
parties. They had a final hearing yes
terday and were each ordered to give
bond for their appearance at the next
term of the Superior Court. Failing to
give bona tnev were returned to jail.
Bob Johnston, also colored, was sent
to jail on the charge of stealing a hog
from a man named McLelland, two
miles from the city. His tracks first
betrayed.ldirr, Hnd the: Mood of the ani
mal visible along the road from the
pasture to his house fastened the guilt
upon him.
Bevenne Seizures.
ine revenue raiders who o Derate in
this district have been on the wing in
Iredell and Alexander counties recent
ly. As the result of their prow lings
they are able to show at Statesville, the
general headquarters, about ten horses
and half as many wagons captured from
blockaders. A tobacco factory in Da
vidson county, belonging to a man
named Deister, has also been seized.

aging in this region, let him search out
a party or revenue raiders.
Borax Wahinc: Interesting to the
Ladle.
Our lady readers who have not tested
the magic properties of borax, says an
exchange, have been losing a great help
and comtort. It once used, you will
never be without a bottle on your toilet
table. It removes the stam and dirt
from . the the hands better than soap,
and at the same time softens and
smooths the skin. It is splendid for
washing the hair, and will, without in
jury, cleanse brushes and combs m a
lew moments. For washing purposes
it saves both soap and labor. It will
extract the dirt from articles of delicate
texture without rubbing, it being ne
cessary to put the articles m a solution
of borax over night, and will need only
to be rinsed in the morning. Two ta-
blespoonfuls of pulverized borax dis
solved in a quart of water, to which wa
ter may be added to cover a pair of blan
kets, will cleanse them beautifully. It
also saves great labor m washing paints.
'Tis said to drive away ants and roaches
if sprinkled on the shelves of safes or
pantries.

through their attorney; E. K. P. Os

the prayer or the petitioners.
The clerk of the board was ordered
to make publication of a change in the
Statesville road,. which had been asked
for, as required by law. The change
contemplated is that the road shall run
from J. Meullerschean's through M. MI

old plank road, and running into the
present road near Mrs. Barnett's place,
the old route between Meullerschean's

To the Editor of The Observer:
This is the heading of an article that
appeared in yesterday morning's paper,
and that I endorse as every word true.
I do hope that our people will manifest
their liberality and celebrate the 20th
of May in a way that will show the
patriotism of our people on that day
that ought never to be forgotten by
North Carolinians. But I do hope they
will not forget our poor that we al
ways have among us. There are some
impostors. I am sure, that obtain some
of the poor funds by deception, but the
systematic plan on w7hicn tne renei so
ciety has been organized prevents much
or that, Decause tne committees visit
all and know generally to whom they
distribute alma. In the last two days,
I have visited some twelve or hlteen
families, including forty or fifty per
sons, and if I have ever had my heart
moved, it has been during these visits
to some of those families. I will men
tion one especially in which I found a
.man with, a .wife . and several small
children. The wife had been sick for
twelve -months.: and about four weeks
ago she partially recovered in the prov
idence ot God, lust in time to wait on
her husband, who was taken down
with the typhoid fever. He is a hard
-working and rindustrious man, but all
nis savines nave ueeu caiisiuslbu, so
that it is a family literally with noth
ing. 1 had a small amount on nanci
irom tne reiiei society, ana wnen a toia
him I could give him with it medicine
and nrovisionsk he Durst into tears
and modestlv and reluctantly received
the needed help. But what I gave can
not last them long, and now, while I
Write. I have calls for help and visits
from three families; I am going, and
trust in God the good people of the city
of Charlotte will supply us witn some
thing to help these poor creatures. "X or

the blood, imperfect assimilation are certain to en

and remove their cause, by a course of Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, which stimulates the biliary or
gan and regulates Its action. The direct result is
a disappearance' of the pains beneath the ribs and
through the shoulder blade, the nausea, head
aches, yellowness of the skin, furred look of the
