Moving continues, wait for good weather. It is no use to The streets last night were as dark as Egypt. Thunder and lightning last night Hare for winter. From corner to corner is twice as far as in dry weather. The rapid thaw delights everybody but sleighers and skaters. There have been no cases before' the mayor for nearly a week. Freezing is no longer feared, and if slipping is sure falling is not fatal. The regular monthly meeting of the independent Hook and Ladder company took place last night. The stream of dramatic companies is setting toward the Northern cities. The weather is too bad for the road. It is supposed that Tom and Jerry are warm friends. Augusta News. Are you not sufficiently intimate with them to know V Miss Henrietta Vaders, the leading lady in Keene's company, and Mr. Har ry Thompson, a noted actor, were mar ried in Baltimore last Sunday. The exercises at Davidson College are resumed to-day, after a two weeks intermission for the holidays. A num ber of students passed through the city yesterday. Two more car loads of wood for the poor were received yesterday over the Atlantic, Tennessee & Ohio road. It was distributed gratuitously to the needy. Having gutters to spout from over head to the pavement may be conve nient and economical, but it i by no rnpans pleasant to those who are com pelled to walk below. Last Saturday night while it was sleeting a gentleman observed be hind the clouds four bright flashes of light. They were unaccompanied by thunder and the inference is that they were caused by brilliant meteors. The precedent of carriages for en tertainments was set for hard rains, but lias been extended to damp evenings and bids fair to become invariable. Some of the boys, however, are begin ning to ?queal pretty loud. "Katie, shut that gate," was direct ep at the door of the opera house last night and was especially appropriate to the gentlemen who retire retire be tween the acts for what purpose they retire is not known. Asheville has developed a weather prophet named Gaither. He predicts with considerable safety that January will be the coldest month in the year. "The paroxysm of cold," he says, will climax with intensely cold weather, with plenty of snew both North and South. Bartley Campbell has brought suit for criminal libel against Charles A. Byrne, editor of the Dramatic News, in Xew York, who charges that Campbell : did not write the plavs, "My Partner" and "The Galley Slave," and further that Campbell stole outfight the latter play. Byrne was released on his own recognizance. It is a little odd why the gentle men always stand right in the middle of the sidewalk or directly on the nar row crossing when they want to gossip or talk business. Generally they are so engrossed in each other that they forget that the sidewalk Is not entirely their own, and do not pretend to move when other persons want to pass. ' Pat It oner In his Irish character impersonations to-night will draw a large house and the house will be largely entertained if Pat is anything like what he is repre sented to be.

It is stated that more than half of the two hundred and odd companies which took the road last fall have eith er been disbanded or will be in a short time. The distress is due in a great measure to the terrible weather. The rapid succession of companies all of them good ones, too at the op era house, is as good a thing, during this weather, for the livery stable men as it is for the companies. , j iflecKlenVurfr Trip SewBanoytr, The board of commissioners yester day Computed the State tax due from Mecklenburg county to be paid to the State Treasurer next Monday by the sheriff at $17,213.37. In addition to this about $12,000 will be paid te County Treasurer Belk as the proportion of the school tax due from Mecklenburg. This makes a total of un wards of $29,000 of State tax from Mecklenburg. Thesherifl claims that this Will give us the second Pitwi5: UaaovVrf MectUeWure.

Bring In Another tloree. ;" One of the wafxU hauierB, Wttoi IhllYe all been having such a fete champetre, o to speaK, ror ine last week, yesterday came in with a two horse load. As the supply has been considerably better and prices off in consequence he asked only 61.75 for it. A Hebrew citizen, his only taker, offered $1.50 and the trade fell through, The wagoner couldn's stand the racket and drore off f6r 11601 with his wood unsold but overtaking a sym pathizing friend at the creek borrowed a horse from the tatter's empty wagon. spiked it before his double team and re turned to town in all the glory of a threehorse load. The same citizen watchful for a bargain, , bailed him. Two and a quarter was demanded. "I takes dot tree horse load for $2.25. Drive him to mein house. Dat is some ding like it." Another Inquest. Tbe'coToner will to-day proceed ito Sharon, have the remains of Ned Stroud, one of the victims 6f the Air Line disaster, disiBterred, and. hold an inquest The coroner sa3 that he had no opportunity to hold inquests oyer either Stroud or Sellers, as their bodies were removed without his: being noti fied. He is doing his duty, as he un derstands it, and considers that he would be guilty of great negligence if he neglected to hold the inquests in strict conformity to true statute. In this case he considers it especially nec essary from the possibility of litiga tion arising, in which event, he says, the testimony of the coroner would be of essential importance and the man ner in which the inquest was held, would be subject to the strictest exam ination. It does seems that the stat ute in regard to coroner's inquests might be made much more satisfactory than it is in its present loose form. In justice to Mr. Alexander, however, it should be remembered that the" cqunty commissioners pass upon his reports before remuneration is allowed ufor holding the inquests. i i i Jurymen for Superior Co-art. .

Fire Department JlaiUn. The Pioneers met night before last for the purpose of electing a president to nil the vacancy caused by me resig nation of Mr. Luther Long, who has gone to Texas to live. The ejection was postponed on account of the small attendance, barely a quorum being present. Another matter of considera ble importance Was, however, consid ered. The number of the registered members of the company is about forty. Of these not more than one-third are in the habit, it was asserted, of turning out to fires' or at meetings. The city marshal, who -is also the tixtl of the fire department, had stated that he was embarrassed by the large number of nen in the city who claimed exemption from the poll tax, stating that they were firemen. In consideration of these facts the company resolved that all members who should absent themselves at the next regular meeting, without a written and satisfactory excuse, should be stricken from the roll and that a list of the regular members of the company should be made out for the use of the marshal. In this dorffeCted; Wit-as to anythrhg calling connection attention is calledffoij HtcstOtt his fcoirOrVcoinm li ning of the interest in the firerlOBgvte .. to the waning department which appears of late. The equipment of tne department is more. thorough than ever before, and is a- credit to the city. Tor a long XimtilooA more enthusiastic firemen could not be found anywhere. It is regretted that this spirit seems to .be declining and it? is hoped and believed that all that is needed to inspire fresh zeal into our firemen for the prosperity of their com panies nd- 4h department-is. the call ing attention to the seeming lack of it of late.

The third class, which was created at the last session of the Supreme Lodge for , the benefit of brethren oyer thVlimit of age in the first and second classes, is yet in its in cipiency, but will doubtless be availed of by members whose age prevents them entering the other two classes.

I re gard them as entirely beyond the au thority given me by the board of alder men and the action of the railroads above named. I am. Very respectfully, &c, F. S. De Wolfe, Mayor. Mayor's Office, Charlotte, Jan. 5, '81. The communication of the mayor is caustic. The occasion is that The Ob server published some time ago the report that three gentlemen in the city had subscribed $100 each to the relief of the poor. It seems that this is an exaggeration, or at least that the mayor hasn't received the money. The state ment was made, it is. admitted, on in sufficient authority, but as no names were' mentioned, no -trarm is done. But the mayor writes as if he was be ing injured. In the first place it was not stated that the subscriptions had been made to him, and the fact that the Democratic executive committee of the city had, as stated at the time of the publication complained of in so in direct a manner, turned over $200 to Xien. Young, the president of the Relief Association, would lead to the inference, as between the mayor and the presi dent Of the Relief Association, that these subscriptions had been made to the latter. He makes no complaint. The mayor again forgets that he is petfoiniuig on the second instrument in this charitable ofrdjestra when he complaiifs of being- placed -in a false light by the statement, that, when the absolutely necessitous were-xelieied those who were willing , to pay for wood if they could gei it Would be sup plied. It seems that the mayor's sensi bilities are orfended by he intimation that lie would iu!keAny"-eftoxt to keep anybody' from 'free"zrb ereeuJr' those twJio , would rfrerthe quickest.
