The firemen's excursion train to Alexandnana will start from the Air Line depot to-morrow morning at 1 o'clock. The seetion of the Statesville Hailroad track between the Air Line depot and the Statesville freight depot has been torn up. Cgr A box of cigars will be offered a3 the prize to be won by the successful contestant in the bicycle race at the Pio neers' picnic. There will be about six entries. 2T A union prayer meeting will be held in connection with the ladies pro hibitory association at the Tryon Street Methodist church this evening at 8U o'clock. An address will be delivered in the interest of prohibition. tW In the mayor's court yesterday morning Florence Brown, colored, was lined $2.50 and costs for a disturbance; Louis Mosely, colored, was bound over to court for an assault with a pistol ; Walter Liddell was bound over for car rying concealed weapons. dF A silver cup will be awarded to the best shot in the target practice at the firemen's picnic. A silver cup, also, is the prize offered for the second best shot to be given by the winner to some lady on the ground whom he shall di.iose. 13T The explosion of a pistol or gun occurred on Trade street near the square yesterday. Every man in the neighborhood assumed a look of inno cence and unconcern, rendering it diffi cult to discover the victim of a probable case of "didn't know it was loaded." ZW Cupid has been exerting himself among the young people of the city of late. At least halt a dozen couples of our most popular belles and beaushave been given over to be sacrificed upon the altar matrimonial as soon as the seasonsets in during which the weather usually moderates. IW The Augusta Evening News says: "An excursion train from Char lotte to Atlanta last week ovirthe Air Line road carried a large rrumber of peopfle of both sexes and all ages to the Gate City. When they returned home it required fifteen freight cars to carry the merchandize purchased while there. Augusta merchants might take a hint." tW Mr. W. N. Prather set The Ob server force up to ice cream and cake yesterday. The ice cream was so cold the "devil" had to blow every spoonful to keep it from "burning" as it went down, he said. The donor of this timely treat will retain a warm place in me nearis or me iorce. A Banket Picnic. The friends of Mr. LeRoy Davidson will he given a basket picnic at Itural Hill, on the Catawba river, day after to-morrow. The participants will go in couples to Rural Hill by private con veyance.

Last Monday evening was the day in course for the regular meeting of the board of Aldermen for the city of Charlotte, and as already stated in these columns there was no meeting, i esterday the following communica tion in regard to this matter was handed in for publication : To the Editor of The Observer. A' or the. information nf tha nnhlio will you please state through vour paper what prevented the meeting of the Board of Aldermen on Monday last the 18th inst. It does seem to me that persons elected to perform the duties of aldermen should attend. Respectfully, Taxpayer. It may be stated "Taxpayer" belongs to the "wet side," and as it was the ury side that failed to put in an ap pearance, his question is perfectly "tiurai. it is understood now that one of t he"dry"aldermen was out of the cuy and his absence would have givien wet' men a majority if a quorum j-mw have been gotten together. When v.'nr Yel" S'de 301116 time a Pre yntea a quorum by abstaining from e meeting we did not defend them, L1 01 can we now defend the "dry" side r resorting to the same tactics. We ; Uhen, and still think that every an elected to the position of alder ii an should be in his place, at any Ate, at the regular meetings of the board, ;ic and vote as his conscience dictates, 'inc l take the consequences. pmVt6 a,IlfJt know that any action was "nternDlated by the "wet" men who jsembled so punctually Monday even on the all absorbing question of wp , y-but whether there was or not, rr-,; i ,not believe anything can be Wo i by Piddling over the matter. ..v a not believe in the policy of mm . wvivj iv, nun nun we uuu L community has given a well de h'ned eXorP.SSlOn nf nn n nn nA ka vuiiskey question, which we take to be i pone of contention, and if the men elected on either side, haveot the moral courage, or for any other reason i an, to enact laws in obedience to the h i their constituents, and then see mat they are enforced, the sooner they aurrenaer the trust committed to thenr tiie uewer. There should be no trifling over the matter. :. ." .

In your local column Of yesterday morning, at its head, was the rather laconic announcement that in conse quence of a quorum not being present that there was no regular meeting of the aldermanic board on Monday after noon. The bare announcement does not "tote fair," for it no doubt lead seven-eighths of your readers to sup pose that the want of a quorum was caused by the absence of those who are styled the "wet" aldermen. The facts in the ease are that Alder man Wilkes (dry) being absent from the city caused the aldermanic "drys" to "snap duty" and keep in their case mates being thereby put in a minority, not one of them putting in an appear ance, and the mayor only at the last moment, when the "wets had about evacuated the hall for meeting. The question now is since the "drys" have caused the wheels of the city govern ment to clog will it be attempted to ob tain an indictment against them for conspiracy, as was done in the case of the "wets absence at a previous regu lar meeting ? The " wets" are perfectly willing to abide the consequences of their "misdeeds," but as many of them are patrons of The Observer they have a right that they be not misrepre sented by innuendo in the style referred to. Tote fair and "feed both out of the same spoon. Fair Play. Prohibition Meeting in Clear Creek Toivnkliip. To the Editor of the Observer: At all previous meetings of the pro hibition clubjthe antis have been per sonally invited to produce their argu ments, and have always replied: "Not prepared to day, but will have a man here next time." We felt a little un easy when we were told that Mr. C. Q. Lemmond, of Union county, would speak for them to-day. We knew if any man could make wrong appear right, he could. After prayer, the sec retary, Mr. Ellington, in. a short speech tied several things to the snake's tail. Mr. LemmQnd followed about an hour, directing most of his argument toward the constitution. Finding the snake too heavy to pull, he said: I do not, myself, believe that whiskey is very good for snake bites. Col. H. C. Jones then spoke for one and a half hours in a most appropriate and interesting address, often reaching . the sublime, his arguments running with the deductions of logic. The wet men looked dry. Those that were on the fence came over. The Colonel said many things, did us much good, and made several friends ; doubtless he will come again. F. A. II. July IS, 1S81. Prohibition in Lowetville. To the Editor of The Observer: LOAVESVILLE, LINCOLN CO., July 17. Our meeting advertised in The Ob server to be held at Lowesville came off Saturday, the 16th, but Gen. John ston, the great high priest of prohibi tion, Judge Schenck and Calvin Grier, failed to put in an appearance. We had a goodly crowd of both men and, wo men, white and black. The meeting was called 'to order at 11 a. m. in the grove fronting the hospitable mansion of Col. D. A. Lowe, by our county's dis tinguished graduate of Chapel Hill, Alfred Nixon, who introduced theRev. Samuel II. Chester, the able pastor of Castanea and Unity churches. Mrt Chester's address was strong and con vincing, and evidenced much depth of thought. His audience, composed as it was for the most part of the best people of our neighborhood, portions of Gaston, Mecklenburg and Iredell, lis tened to him with wrapt attention, and his friends did not hesitcte to pro nounce it the best effort Of his life. Dr. J. M. Templeton, a young physi cian, living in Dallas, was next intro duced, and well did he reay hid audi ence for their close attention. He i3 a remarkable young man, and gamed the plaudits of the people for his beautiful rhetoric and happy repartee, These. gentlemen had painted in such dark lines the tragic picture of the drunkard that the faces of the audience wore a saddened expression as, they reflected what might be the possible fate of their children, whose habits were yet unformed. , . . But the farce was near at hand and well was it played in two acts. Hilar. ity and shouts were substituted for sober thought and even our longest faced , Presbyterians smiled when "Abb" .Kirkesy leapt into the arena to replr to Mr Chester. Right here the farce began.: Sympathy forbids any comment. 1 .

J To the Editor of The Obserrer. After a week's sojourn in this pleas ant little Village my thoughts revert to home, and I have taken up my pen to give your readers a short account of some of the things I have seen. This Elace is well patronized by tourists, the otels having, for a week past been well tilled. There are not mrny Charlotte people only a few families. The weather has been delightfully cool at night, and during the hottest of the weather, the ther mometer has not registered above 88 in the passage of the hotel. Coming, as I did, from the warmer climate of Char lotte, the change was very grateful. At night sweet and refreshing sleep is easily courted, and we awake in the morning with renewed vigor. This charming tableland on which Hender son ville is situated, is dotted here and there with quite prominent little moun tains, from whose summits, rearing up in: stately majesty, you get charming views of the adjacent country, and the towering peaks Of still greater magni tude rising in the distance. Two of the most popular in this vicinity it has j been my pleasure to visit recently. The first one, Hebron, is easy of access. Thanks to the generous efforts of that sturdy mountaineer, whose locks have been whitened by the frosts of 80 wint ers, (Farmer Jones.) a nicely graded road has been formed, leading to its very summit, and you can sit in your spring vehicle and be hauled up with out the aid of any muscle. You catch from the top of Hebron a grand and extensive view of Ihe French Broad valley in one direction, and the eye can feast upon a grand panorama of mountain peak rising above mountain peak, until one grand unbroken chain greets the delighted vision, (skirting around the horizon.) The view in one direction, however, we found was ob structed and we turned to our guide and asked him what mountain con fronted us, and seemed to rise consid erably higher than Hebron, and ob structed the view to the North. The reply was, "That . is 'Jump-off,' and you ought to go up there." We deter mined to do so, later. The next day we started to interview "Jump-off mountain, and found it much more difficult of ascent. Skirting around the foot of a long range, we found a rough and narrow road beset with gates and bars, and plentifully set with roots and stones, which finally led us up to Farmer Davis's gate. But being in formed there was ''walking ahead of us," we left our horse and buggy and climbed the mountain side, up a steep path, for a half mile, reaching the top of the mountain perspiring freely and panting like porpoises. The precipice on the south side, called "Jump-Off," is a rocky cliff, almost perpendicular for several hundred feet, and is well calcu lated to give a nervous person a first class shudder in looking over it. The view from the summit of the moun tain a little further back is simply grand. Towering high above all in this section, the eye can take in, from the top, a grand panorama of wond rous beauty and attractiveness. As from the centre of a circle, whose cir cumference is an unbroken chain of mountains, with a radius of 15 or 20 miles, your eye feasts upon the scene, and you turn from one prospect to an other, and all the while experiencing emotions of genuine pleasure, "In wis dom He made them all." How won derful are the works of nature. After spending two hours in pleasant con templation we returned to a late din ner, well prepared to do justice to it. I have seen the boat which is soon to plow the pellucid waters of the French Broad. It is almost complete and will be plying between Hendersonville and Brevard in a few weeks. If I am for tunate enough to get up here again next summer, I shall expect to be borne up the lovely valley of the French Broad on the deck of this little steamer. I am sorry it is not ready to take me now. F. NEWS III NORTH CAROLINA. Greensboro Battle Ground: The wells which have been dry for several days, are filling with water, again since the ram.
