The raffla gotten up by Mrs. J. SchifE for the . poor of . Charlotte will take place atthe Store of Mr. S. Landecker at 6 oclock this evening. It has been long since the streets were so resonant as yesterday and l;ist night with the noise of drums and tue? tread of people in line. 1 The Hornets' Nest Riflemen are look ing for a cornet band that will accom pany them to Columbia for their ex penses. This is not official. The preparations for memorial day do not seem to be going forward so vig orously as usual, or else the ladies are keeping their own counsels. Which V Maj.

I ' The citizens have, within the past ' two weeks, come up right nobly to the . aid of the relief association, and it is to their credit that this can be said. Still more funds, however, -i are needed, and let them not weary in well doing. ( There were one or j two picnics yes terday and would have been more but for the rain. . The pupils of the Char lotte Institute for Young Ladies went out early in the morning for a day in '.the woods but were 'driven in before the dav was far spent Valuable Farm Sold; Tho tranf nf lnnf : fvinn inst bevond the fair grounds, and owned by R.

Johnston, fell from, a buggy, near Bid dletowni yesterday afternoon, and sus tained painful injuries. It was thought for awhile that hisieg was broken, but an examination proved this to be un true, although he was quite seriously hurt. He was with two colored people, servants of the family, both of whom were also thrown from the buggy. ... . m- t 1 Gander Fulling. 1 When the' train! passed Cherryville, on the Carolina Central Railroad, Sat urday, about a ; hiindred people were gathered there to witness a gander pull ing.

Houston, general pas senger and ticket agent of the Atlanta & Charlotte Air Line Railroad, an nounces officially that arrangements have been entered into between the Piedmont- Air Line route and the post- omce department by which through mail cars from New York to New urieans will De put on this line at an early day. This agreement is the result of a proposition from the Air Line and connections between jew xorK ana jsew urieans to con struct and place oh the line through mail cars with a schedule of fifty-one and a half hours between the two last named points. This time is much faster than has been made between these points, and brings about a realiza tion of the propositions made by the original projectors of the Air Line. We understand that the cars suitable tor carrying out this proposition are hqw (being built The" arrangement will operate very advantageously to Charlotte in giving us better mail accommodations than we have ever had before. A Forevt Fire Destruction of Rail road and Cord Wood. A destructive woods fire broke out at a point about four miles northeast of this city Sunday afternoon and spread very rapidly, passing quickly over an area from a mile to a mile and a half wide, and doing considerable damage. Comparatively few fences have been burned, so far as could be heard, but this is mainly due to the fact that there are now very lew fences in tnat region. The fire reached- a pile of cord wood on the . North Carolina Railroad and burned about a hundred Cords. The flames from r the burning wood was communicated to the track and a small portion of it was burned, the rails being so badly twisted that they cannot be used. Tne destruction 01 tne track was reported to the agent, Mr. "Wilson, in this citv during the afternoon and two sections of hands were immediately put to work to repair it. The occurrence, however, delayed considerably the movements ofhe trains. TBe! fire created ia considerable ex citement in the neighborhood, and the inhabitants were fighting it until after nightfall. The extent of the damage cannot well be calculated yet. Senator Butler and Hampton and Judre Mackey Honors to the Sou lb Carolina Senators. Senator M. C. Butler and Judge T. J. Mackey arrived in the city last evening and were visited by a number of friends and acquaintances at the Central Hotel last night. Senator Butler is on. the way from Charleston, whither he went about a week ago to appear in the suits in the United states .court against cm zens of ScAith Carolina for violating the election laws at the last election for Congressmen in that State. He stopped over in Charlotte to see his three sons, who are cadets in the Carolina Military Institute, and will leave lor Washington this afternoon. Judge Mackey says he merelv came ud to Charlotte to escort Gen. Butler, and to use his own words to catch , a little inspiration irom tne historic grounds of Mecklenburg. He I returned to his nome in cnester last night. Arrangements were made last night to serenade Gen. Butler and ask him for aspeechj; but hearing of this, he begged his friends to excuse him on theground of fatigue. A committee of cadets of the Institute also called on him to make a similar request at a later hour, but he was compelled to decline and promised to visit the Institute this, afternoon at 4 o'clock. Gen; Butler expects to meet Governor Hamnton at the depot this evening at 630 and the two Senators will goon to Washington together. The Hornets' "Nest Riflemen at their meeting last aieht Jietormiiied.io turn out the full company this evening to escort Gen. liutier torne aepot ana io meet uen. mpton.: The latter eoes to Washing ton for the first time since the extra session began.
