The third annual convention of the Young Men's Christian Association of North Carolina assembled in Salisbury Thursday evening at 8:30, Capt. J. A. Ramsay, the mayor of the town, deliv ered an address of welcome to the dele Kates, in which he paid a glowing tri bute to the cause in which they are en gaged, and in the warmest and most unequivocal terms tendered to them, in behalf of the citizens, the hospitalities of Salisbury. He was followed by Rev. Mr. Rumple, pastor of the Presbyterian church, Rev. Mr. Renn of the MethodL i and Rev. Mr. Smith of the Lutheran churches, each of Whom, in an earnest manner, delivered addresses of welcome on behalf of the churches. i ollowinff these, responses, on behalf of the convention, were made by Messrs. Foust and Pittman of Charlotte. 1 he evenins passed off ciuite nleasant- ly, a large audience greeting with their presence the opening meeting of the convention. The formal organization took place at 10:30 a. in. Friday. Mr. T. M. Pitt man, of Charlotte, was chosen perma nent president ; Messrs. Butler of Golds- boro and Haywood of Raleigh, vice- presidents, and Rev. Mr. Franklin, of v inston, secretary, with Mr. R. M. Da vis, of Salisbury, assistant secretary. ... V After the credentials were received anu examined, it was round that nine teen associations and churches were represented by forty-five delegates. Sev eral corresrxmdinsr members were ad mitted, including the pastors of the city churches, which swelled the num ber to about fifty. l he deliberations on Friday Were ot- great interest to the members, and the discussions were participated in by nearly all present. Many, ot the citi zens were in attendance at all the ses sions, and the ladies added much to the general interest by leading the music which constituted a prominent feature, The attendance on this convention was much larger than the one of last year and the report or the executive com mittee showed an increase or nearly 50 per cent, in the growth and develop ment of the organization during the past year This has been done, too, without any system ot visitation or special oversight on the part of the ex ecutive committee, they being in a measure without f undB. The increase of this organization for the last few years has been very remarkable, and it is destined to become an important ad junct to the ministry and the churches . i x j i ' in eievaung me mora anu religious tone of the young men of the land. The convention concluded its work yesterday. The harmony and good will which marked the deliberations on Friday augur well for all subsequent action. The third annual convention of the Y. M. C. A. of North Carolina will doubtless prove a bright spot in the experience of all who were permitted to take part in its proceedings and will leave a valuable impress on the social ind religious element of Salisbury.

Dr. JNall, the revaiist, was in Concord last week, and preached in the Presbyterian church there. Some weeks ago it was announced in the Virginia papers that it was Kev. L. Woods, or .North Carolina, on wnom Hampden Sidney College had conferred the decree of D. D. at the same time this title wat conferred upon Rev. E. II. Hardinsr. of this city. We are able to state that this was a mistake, and that this honor has fall upon Rev. Wm. A. Vood. the esteemed pastor ot tne Presbyterian church In Statesville and a eraduate or Davidson college. Air. Wood is a laborous student, a man of recognized talents, and will wear the new new honor worthily in all respects. HOWE PENCIL.INH. The crape crop in and around Char lotte promises a most abundant yield. The gardner and farmer are no long er in tears. The shower yesterday was highly satisfactory. Mr. H.

Young, formerly of Charlotte, as president, has just been organized in Concord. Another Pedestrian Party. Another pany of young men, mostly composed of college boys, who are at home on a vacation, will start out on a pedestrian tour through the mountains at an earlv dav.

It is said that the leaves of geranium ' are an excellent application for cuts, when the skin is rubbed off, and other wounds of the same kind. One or twp leaves must be bruised and applied on linen to the part and the wound will become cicatrized in a very short time. The board of aldermen has ordered Lhelizhts to be turned off. except on Wednesday and Sunday nights, when they will so shine that people will have no excuse for not going to church and the weekly prayer-meetings. This order is in effect until the summer months are over, and is according to custom.

He reports that nearly all his cotton is infested by these little animals. They are appa rently lifeless, but in a few days suck all the life from the leaves, causing them to shrivel and turn black. He re ports that other farmers in his neigh borhood are suffering from the same nansA. So far the blooms dorlot appear to be affeeted, but the damage to the stalk can be noticed in every field he has examined. Railroad Note. Only eight tickets were sold for the excursion which leic here ior Charles ton day before yesterday afternoon, but when the tram passed Chester tnere were fifty for sixty on board, and a large crowd was expected from points nearer Columbia. During the past year the Atlantic, Tennessee & Ohio Railroad has not had a sinele cent to pay for loss and dam ages. This is something altogether re markable in the history ot railroading and reflects credit upon the officers and employes of the company. The eradine on the V estern JN ortn Carolina of the track which is to run by way of Newton has been about com pleted, and last week theoversefer, con- vicis, muies, xc, were sent io me iieuu of the road to work on the line between the Swannanoa tunnel and Asheville. The Condition of Two Little tiirl-. A white women of the de-mi monde order, who is known in the city as Mrs, Elliott, has been committeed to jail in default of a bond to keep the . ieace against another of her sex and class. Mrs. Elliott is the mother of two little girls aged respectively nine and eleven years. Her confinement in prison leaves the two children on me communiiy, or rather on no one at all, for it's not like ly that their mother.has friends such as are able and suitable to taise cnarge or them. According to the decision of the court; which could not have been other wise under the circumstances, tne wo man will be confined in iail for three ot four months, until the -next Superior ; Court. In the meantime the children will be without support The county authorities can only send them to the county poor house, and this wrill doubt less be done. Tne case is menuonea in the hope that some better fate may. await them that tney may pe taKeni where thev will be surrounded by better influences, than they are now likely to have at the poor house or elsewhere. 5 : PASS HI!rVAK6lJ7f dJ New York Futures closed weak.
