For Future Reference.
The weather record for the present
year will show a curious reversal of the
natural order of things a balmy,
spring-like winter, and a spring which
is a mixture of the warmth of early
summer and the rigors of December.
Butfoitlia $ain yesecday w-e shook!
jiad -this morning the hyacinths, tallpe
and roses, now blooming in the garden,
covered with snow. Tuesday the ther
mometer stood at one time at 74;
Wednesday it was as low as 58; and
yesterday it reached 33. There was a
wild rush for wood and coal, and a div
ing into old trunks for overcoats and
cloaks that had been laid, aside till next
fall, or it may be forever. The early
vegetables, it is feared, will all go by the
board, and the fruit, being deprived of
the protection which a pleasant super
stition attributes to March, will suffer
utter destruction. The only glad heart
in all these dismal times is that of the
weather prophet, Vennor, who, stand
ing over drooping flowers ad under
blighted peach blossoms, sees his repu
tation redeemed.
Rmot4 ef Hareh Weather.
The following meteorological data

Xlie Close of Hie Festival.
The Hebrew fair was brought to a
conclusion last night. The sword and
afghan contest was finished at too late
an hour for the result to appear In this
morning's Observer, but the excite
ment was very great and getting greater
as we went to press, and the indications
were that heavy voting would be done
just before the counting. The crowd
during the first part of the evening was
not as good as on either of the two pre
vious, but it was considerably increased
towards midnight. The weather, how
ever, prevented many from going out
who would have done so had it been
fair.
The festival has been a success finan
cially as well as in the pleasure which
it has afforded, not only to our Hebrew
citizens, but to the public generally by
whom it was largely patronized. The
object for which it was given is as
commendable as the manner in which
it was arranged and conducted was
tasteful and satisfactory. There is
some probability that the orphan asy
lum may be-located in Charlotte and
theinterest which our Israelitish citi
zens have shown in it certainly deserves
consideration.
About the I! ail road.
Chester and Lancaster, being
about to be connected by railroad, are
striving to get a telegraph line.
The Atlantic, Tennessee & Ohio ltail
road.still stands ready to put up the wires
and instruments for a telephone line
between Charlotte and Statesville, if
the people along the road will furnish
the posts.
It is stated that (Jo J. j. u. Clark, who
has just resigned the position of super
intendent of, the Charlotte, Columbia &
Augusta Railroad, is to be consulting
engineer of the Richmond & Danville
Railroad with the several lines it con
trols. Col. T. D. Gillespie, superintendent of
this, division of the Southern Express

of his office for the last three months,

Sadler, route agent
The Supreme Court of the State has
decided that the statutory presumption
of negligence on the part of a railroad
company, killing stock only applies-
when the facts aie uncertain, vvnen
the facts .are ascertained the question
of negligence is one of 7 law. It is -not
negligence for a railroad company to
f ence its track.
Ererettism In the Opera Houw. ,
The Evereit Family, who are to ap
pear in our opera house next Monday
and .T aesday nights,; appear to be a won
derful set of people. The' Augusta
Evening News has this to say of their
recent performance in mat city: ,
The Everett Family gave one of their
wonderfully -mysterious seances last
evening at the opera nouse. ine tricks
olr Jiir. lieorirexiveietu mo yun,-wiuiv
hension. and are quite enough to make
an audience' wiw witn areaa or tne
spirits that hover about him and assist
him in his dark doings, - The methods
by which h ; extricates himself from
tied up and sealed positions is inexpli
cable and calculated to make the hair
stand straight up from the heads of the
stage committee. The performance ot
Mr. Geo. Hiverett witn miss JNeine Eve
rett is even more wonderful . The sec
ond, sight or mind reading of this re
markable and accomplished young lady
is balanced by the power or mma im
pression exerted over her bj her brother.
She is blindfolded, and, sitting : oiv the
stage, can instantly tell the name of
any article that he touches in any part
of the audience... 3he oanr without any
assistance of - trickery, either in words
or acts, tell the' name with any pecu
liarity of, any thing that his mind con
siders, as, for instance, the letters of a
monogram, the exact time by, a watch,
the date of a letter, the nutioberof a
checks the setting of a ring, the name
of a paper, etc. ,This extraordinary de
velopment of the minds of brother and
sister in this paiUcular direction we do
not pretena to expiam, ana inaeea. we
do not name it, but the influence is as
certain as it is wonderful. All who
ee them" have the foolish- and popular
sk:tfsnV!t the subject removed if
they a tMx test and are persuaded
that the mysterious force of mind off
mind crenerallv conceded as the pecu
liar privilege of spirits Wcertainly and
satisfactorily exhibited by George Eve
rett ana Miss iieuie. ;This part or the
performance is worth the study of peo
ple wijth mind about them while the
whole exhibi tion is entertaining. The
I opera house should be crowded to-night
to witness at a. Bman cnarge a demon
stration' of Everettism. um
