His visit to Char lotte just now is not understood to be of special significance, as he has just returned from a trip to New Orleans whither he went to look after the mint there, and stopped over here on his re turn. ,He visited the liudisill mine during the day and was greatly inter ested in the operations there. Calvary Congregational Illeeting Quite a number of the members of Calvary Mission, in accordance with previous notice, assembled at their place of worship last night, for the pur ytose of holding a church conference. Several members of other denomina tions were present. . The reports of the pastor, class-leaders and stewards were received, and, we. learn, gave evidence that the church is on a solid founda tion, spiritually and otherwise. The church discipline requires that these meetings be held once a month, but, strange to say, this is the first ever held in Calvary Mission. Hereafter, how ever, a church conference will be held the first Wednesday in each month. The members of the church and others participated in the proceedings, and the meeting passed off very pleasantly. For Farmers Only. The following is given by an ex change as a cure for hog cholera, a dis ease which has recently prevailed to an alarming extent in Mecklenburg coun ty : - 1 " " : "lake tresh green coiiara leaves, neat them thoroughly, stems and all, then express the juice and drencn your pigs freely until relieved or cured, and feed your hogs twice or three times a day heavily to the lull on green coiiaras tor the next six months, and you will have fine healthy hogs to fatten." But then, who is aoie to nil such a prescription and drench the blessed lit tle pigs ? Our farmers ihad better be gin in time and plant alternate rows of cotton and coiiards it tney wouia save their grunters. A General Invitation. The committee of invitation of the 20th of May celebration held a meeting yesterday afternoon and decided to ex tend a general invitation xo tne citizens of North Carolina " and of adjacent States to visit Charlotte and partici pate in the festivities of that occasion. All organizations, whether military or civic, will be welcomed. The commit tee desire to say that while the purses of the citizens will not bear the stress necessarry to provide for the style of entertainment which we would like to extend to visitors, still all will be gladly received from whatever quarter they may cornei Jte is jtof be hoped, that ; tne day win soon come to do generally observed throughout North Carolina, and that all persons who do not see nt to celebrate it at home will come to Charlotte and join in with us. Holy Thursday Services at the Catho lic Church. The religious services at the Catholic church to-day (Holy Thursday), will be comemorative of Christ's entry into the Garden of (iethsemane, with the tnree apostles, to prav that the cup which the Father had given Him to drink might pass trom mm, and oi tne waicn wnicn tne djiscMpies-were toiQ ip jteep-; wnen ic was saMi or mem urai rine spiral, is win ing but the nesn is weaK. x nree per sons will be in the church throughout the day, watching and praying, the members of the congregation perform ing this service in,, alternate hours, while the scene ot uetnsemane win do illustrated on the altar. In some churches the priests wash the ieet of twelve poor persons in the church, in imitation of Christ washing the feet ot the apostles, but tha custom, we believe . . -m mi . is not oDserved nere. xne services on Holy Thursday, arid during the remain der of Holy week are of a peculiarly solemn, and interesting caaraeter.

A passenger on the' 820 train from Wilmington last evening reports that the body of a white man, who was killed the evening before;: near Monroe, was brought into ihetown yesterday, file gathered no- particulars except that the man was shot down in the road by an other man, with whom he got into a difficulty relative to the powers of speed Of their resneetive horses, and that the slayer succeeded in making his escape. An effort particulars of the tragedy last night by telegraph, but as the omee at Monroe clcsss about the time the chickens go to roost, it was impossible to communi cate with the town. Railroad osip: , There is a remarkable lull in railroad circles just now. The freight business is growing lighter, and the passenger business remains about the same. There is some talk of a general change of schedules about the middle of the present month or the first of next, but nothing definite is known. The change will probably not take place till the through mail (the White Star lane) is put on the line via Charlotte. There have been no developments in connection with the union depot We were told that the work would be be gun in the spring, and behold one month of the spring has gone. It is stated that trains began to run to the top of the mountain on the West ern North Carolina Railroad last Fri day. The Southern Railway and Steamship Association's pool has broken, and the cutting of rates has been begun. A meeting is to be held to-day in Atlanta to mend the broken links, and it is be lieved that this can be done to .the sat isfaction of all parties concerned. Conntr Matters. At the meeting of the board of coun ty commissioners yesterday, a petition was read from citizens of Lemley's township, asking that the citizens thereof be allowed the privilege of vot ing on the question of establishing the prohibitory liquor law for that town ship. The petition being signed as re quired by lawvthe election was ordered to take place on the first Thursday in June. It was further ordered by the board that in conformity to chapter 3, section 2, of Battle's Revisal, H. P. Helper, Jas. Wilson and F. J. Knox be appointed to open the polls and hold an election on the hrst Monday in May next at David son College, for the purpose of electing such officers as that town is entitled to by "the act of incorporation." S. W. Smith, H. H. Hood and Dr. J. E. Tray wick were appointed to hold a sim ilar election at Pineville on the same day. Among the large bills approved 'dur ing the day, were that for jail fees for the month of March. $127.80. and that for medical attention at the poor house to Dr. H. Wilder, 8105. The board will be in session again to- aav. Theatrical Note. ;Not a single company is booked for the Charlotte opera house, but we shall doubtless have a few more before the season is over.

The disgust so generally felt for the taste and 8meU of Cod Liver OU is almost proverb! aL It seems to be peculiarly nauseous to the consump tive and scrofulous patients, to whom the whole medical profession know It is specially beneficial. Endeavors have vainly been made to disguise its objectionable characteristics, by mixture with cof fee, brandy, or by the process of deoderization, which Impairs Its efficacy as a nutrient.
