An Important Paper.
A gentleman of this city has received
from the president of the historical'sc
ciety of W orcester, Mass., a letter con
veying intelligence of the existence of
a paper among the society's records
which will forever set at rest all doubts
relative to the authenticity, of the
Mecklenburg Declaration of Indepen
dence, on the 20th of May, 1775. Certi
fied copies of the paper have been sent
for, and we are informed that the gen
tleman referred to will soon bring to
light all the ; facts connected with, this
important historical event. In view of
this fact the matter will not be further
anticipated here. , It is sufficient to say
that it is in the hands of an able and
conscientious investigator of the truth
of history. ;
Death of yir. II. A. Springs.
The sad intelligence of the death of
Mr. Richard A. Springs was announced
by telegraph here yesterday. - He died
in New Vork in the morning at .7
o'clock. The telegram contained no
further particulars, except that the
body would be sent to Charlotte as
soon as possible. Mr. Springs left
home less than a week ago for New
York, having expressed the intention
of ultimately going on to Saratoga for
his health which has for along time
been feeble. He was accompanied by a
servant and from him the news of the
death comes. It was received with the
sincerest expressions of sympathy and
regret. Everybody in Charlotte and
many persons in other parts of the
State knew and liked Dick Springs, as
he was familiarly called. His frank
and genial manner, his bright wit and
his generous and kindly disposition
made him a delightful companion and
gave him a hearty welcome into every
household. His business qualifications
were of a high order. When engaged in
active business, no young man in Char
lotte was more successful.
If anything could add to the feelings
of regret and sadness which his friends
in this city experience at the announce
ment of his death it is in the fact that
lie died within twenty-four hours of
the demise of his nearest and best
friend, Mr. Jno. A. Wilson. For years
their associations have been of the
most intimate character. Much of the
best part of their lives had been spent
together and in death they were not
divided.
Mr. Springs' remains are expected to
arrive in the city at 12 o'clock to
night. Capture of Jail Birds.
The news reached our neighboring
town, Gastonia, Tuesday, of the escape
of the four negroes from Lincolnton
jail Monday morning. Early yesterday
morning Mr. A. S. Bradley, who lives
near Gastonia, went into the village
and told the marshal that his milk
house had been broken into, and further
that he had seen the robbers, a party of
negroes, but could not stop them. The
marshal, Mr. T. W. Davis, immediately
went to his house to get his gun, but
arriving there found that the gun had
been stolen. The two circumstances
created some little sensation which was
in no wise abated when Mr. Page, the
Air-Line railroad agent, went into the
ticket office and found that it had been
robbed of a sum of money. A party at
once started in pursuit of the robbers
who were easily tracked, a heavy rain
having just fallen. Mr. J. B. Lutz was
the first to come upon them, about four
miles south of Gastonia, and drawing
his pistol he demanded their surrender.
One of the robbers drew also and de
clared that he would dot surrender, but
Mr. Lutz bull-dozed him into striking
his colors, and, firing his pistol, attract
ed the others of the pursuing party and I

received from the sheriff of Lincoln.
They have acknowledged that they-are.

stole Mr. Davis' gun, has not yet been
arrested though at last accounts a crowd
were in close mirsuit oi mm. sroinzan

Another negro, believed to be an ac
complice of these, is also in custody at

for dyspepsia, constipation, liver complaint, urin

and malarial fever. Delicate females and infirm

How to Get Fat.

good Idea for the lean ones to try and grow fat To
do this keep the bowels and liver regulated with
Mott's Liver Pills, and your digestion will be good,
and jou will grow fat rapidly.

Esse Attainable by the Rheumatic.
Yes, although they may despair of relief, It Is
attainable by rheumatic sufferers, for there is a
remedy which carries off, by means of increased
activity of the kidneys important channels for
blood purification the acrid element to which
pathologists the most eminent attribute the painful
symptoms a theory completely borne out by urin
ary analysis. The name of this grand depurent Is
Hostetters, a preparation likewise celebrated as a
remedy for constipation, which causer contamina
tion of the blood with the bile and a certain
means of relief in dyspepsia, If ever and ague, and
nervous ailments. It is, perhaps, the finest tonic
extant, and Is highly recommended as a medicinal
stimulant by distinguished physicians and analysts
who pronounce It to be eminently pure and very
beneficial. The press also endorses it.
