GPMaj. W. J. Montgomery, Col. J. P. Thomas and Drs. S. Mattoon and William Wells Brown, addressed a large prohibition meeting in Monroe yesterday. Much enthusiasm was mani fested and the large crowd listened with unabated interest throughout the speaking, which lasted for five hours. J3P Mr. W. R.

Organize one of the bummers, loafers, vagrants arid dead-beats, and there are enough of them to keep our streets in the most perfect order. It's no use to arrest them any more, for they are "whitewashed" through court and turned loose upon the public again. They are like the clown's dogs you drive them out of the house, they'll come back again and crawl under the bed. Start your chain-gang.

LUTHER BENSON, THE APOSTLB OF TEMPERANCE Addressed a Large anal Enthusiastic Audience at the Court House Last Night. Mr. Luther Benson spoke for about two hours at the court house in his in imitable style last night, and seldom is seen a more delighted audience than that of which he held the untiring at tention during the time. He possesses in a high degree the faculty of instan taneously carrying his audience from laughter to tears and all through rh lecture the rapidity of the transforma tions and the consummate art with which they were brought about were little less than marvelous. The effec tive and powerful manner in which he met and demolished at all points the arguments of the opponents of prohibi tion and the prohibition bill were re warded with round after round of ap plause, and when he predicted that North Carolina would sooner or later be a prohibition State such a healthy cheer went up as indicated the utter abandon with which the audience had surrendered themselves to the sway of the orator. In answer to the objection ef the anti-prohibitionists that the bill Eassed by the Legislature did not pro ibit, their strongest argument, he said that all the people would be called up on to do would be to vote "For Prohi bition" or "No Prohibition" and if the former was triumphant there would be no difficulty about the bill, the Leg islature would make such a law as would satisfy the desires of the people thus indicated or they would be set aside for a Legislature that would. No legisla tion was perfect at first, but had to be made so by successive but entirely practicable amendments, a His appeal to the colored men to turn their backs upon the arguments of Dre- judice and ignorance, used to mislead them and align themselves with the better class, the preachers and women and children of their own as well as the white people, was very effective. But his manner and words when he enumerated the wretched results of in temperance, the "horrors upon horror's Head accumulated, of the delirium, the wall of despair that rose ud and shut hope out forever from the victim of an insatiate appetite for whiskey, the bit ter memories and enawins remorse that clung to him always, the still more harrowing woes suffered by those inno cent ones who let whiskey alone, but who could not be let alone by it, cannot be described. So also the inexhaustible fund of humor and the many indiscriba bly ridiculous turns he gave the argu ments of the anti-prohibitionists, which kept his audience continually laughing. inese are tnings which belong to his speech and must be seen and heard to be appreciated. He will speak at the opera house to-night and deserves as large an audience as can get within the wans. The ladies are especially vited. m- Letters Uncalled for List of letters remaining uncalled for at the postoffice in Charlotte for the week ending July 25, 1881 : Mrs. Allice Allen, Mrs. T. F.

The Game of Ten Pins as a Delinea tor of Character and an interesting- Inter-State Contest. To the Editor of The Observer. Clkaveland Minekal Springs, July 25, 1881. In my last letter I tried to give you a glimpse of one of our evenings here, imperfect, I know, in comparison with, the reality. Like wine when the spar kle has gone, or flowers when the fra grance is dead, is the poor attempt to catch and imprison pleasure as it is passing, and open it when it is passed "stale, flat and unprofitable." All the pungent personalities, my prudent pen cil dare not touch nor the numberless witticisms, the racy bits of talk, the local jokes too insignificant perhaps to be recorded, but still effervescent and full of infectious fun bringing a gleam to the eye and a smile to the lip. What artist can reproduce the eloquence of a tone or accent the flashing wit of a look the music of a ringing laugh? Who can picture the elation the triumph of an old whist player when the small cards of his opponents long suit sweep the board of hoarded kings and queens, or the vivid contrast in the two opposite faces when the inexora able checkmate is pronounced ? All these delicate points of interest are necessarily impaired if not ruined Dy transportation, lust as these waters lose their subtle excellence when bot tled, for the best draueht must be drunk at the spring. So much by way of apology for my last, and now grant me time to tell you something of our day's doing Early in the morning, when first "The envious streaks Do lace the severing clouds in yonder east" life begins. Very often I wake up then, watcn irom my window the drowsy servants commence the tasks of another day the rattling hacks drive up and take off the passengers to the morning train think to myself now I will get up "While the sun his gold Is flinging And the nappy blrda are singing" and the trees "hang all their leafy ban ners out." Yes I will get up and take a drink (it being always understood the drink is sulphur water) and then writ a letter trusting to the freshness of the morning tor inspiration; but even while the resolution is taking shape in my mind I turn to the dear, delicious bed, and yield again to dreams. How ever by this time the spring has had many visitors those who make it a point to drink as a darkey votes, early and often, have taken their customary dipper fulls and are ready and anxious ly waiting for the cheering sound of the breakfast bell that wakes me up again for all day. After breakfast the ladies gather in large groups in the parlor and on the galleries. You know they never look for subjects of interest. Their versatile imaginations, and facile speech, can gild and beautify the most homely themes ; and some are here who talk so charmingly that we, the listeners, would fain take down in short hand their apt words, and inimitable play of fancy. It is a very great delight to en joy the society of so many ladies at once. At home, when we go calling and we meet our friends by twos and threes it is very enjoyable. They of ten say good things worthy to be re membered; they sometimes say bad things that had better be forgotten, but there is not the same variety, activity and fiction of intellect as when we meet en masse, and so this auspicious after-breakfast informality, when the becoming morning dress betokens both body and mind at ease. Approachable, not hedged about by ceremonious silks and satins, is the golden hour when strangers become acquainted, and acquaintanceship ripens into friendship. The gentlemen, too, fall into groups, but I do not think they are as social as the ladies. Their cigars and papers make them meditative. In almost ev ery hand you see a Ciiarlotte Obser ver or a Charleston News and Courier, and when they lay aside the papers, they frequently form into card parties.or play chess or draughts, the circle around them enlarging as the games near the end and the interest increases. As soon as the large groups are broken the ladies go, some to their rooms, some join the different games, some bring down their work and with deft fingers engage in marvelous creations of the needles they delight in. Others with a "Seaside" and a cushion go over the branch, up the hill to a favorite tree where the shade is deepest and the breeze comes caressingly. But who can read when there is to much to look at and listen to. The only time the leaves of my book have Deeu turned at all has been whHi ine wind turned them mockinglv llutttrinK thenj, and the "only leaves I have watched with much interest are Hie leaves above m on these grand old trees, that this same toying, whispering, whistling, weeping wind whirls over for me, cupping, curl ing, crimping, dog-earing their edges, but not spoiling their meaning, nor breaking their harmony. Meanwhile most of the young people, and not a few of their elders, find their way to the bowling alley. It is pre-eminently the place to make new acquaintances. A thoughful gentlemen who sat by me one day said it was pre-eminently the place to study character, ne saia it ne could watch a player through a whole game he could form a fair estimate or his temperament and disposition, and then he would point out to me the care ful man who studies pros and cons, and "looks before he leaps." He would take a ball, feel it all over, note every imper fection both in it and in the alley, and then roll as his judgment indicated, and knock down perhaps two pins. His way of bearing his disappointment showed: his mettle. After him would come a rash, impetuous fellow, the very type of a successful self-made man who overcomes an obstacles by a vim ana an energy well nigh omnipotent. At a glance he would select a ball and wiin increaiuie swumess huu sueugui send it crashing through the pins and bringing every one of them aown. Then would come a timid girl, crimson and nervous with the consciousness that for the moment she was the centre of all eyes. One day when the game was going slowly, the young folks talking to each other and waiting to De caned two or three times, this same friend by my side, the character student, proposea an inter-State game, as the number if roni North and South Carolina was so equally divided. In a moment the lan- cruor disaoDeared. and all was anima . a- tion. Captains chosen, the rash success ful roller the South Carolina Captain, and the prudent, but unfortunate roller for worth Carolina, foinis were watch ed, counted and challenged, the excite ment reaching lever heat during the last few rolls on which so much depend ed. .Every one was on the vroe. n in- ally the old North State was the win ner by about twelve points, although South Carolina had for her captain the "crashing ten-striker. Another good and verv exciting game waa played by the three who had made the best record on each side. Among the best three ot North Carolina, was a young Presbyterian clergyman, well known to vou all. He is taking a little rest and cultivating a muscular Chris- tianity. Bv the wav mv companion at mo uuo x u cw wui wj aupv- rical friend was also a Presbyterian clergyman. I had to make the most of our meeting there, for he would not come near us at nicht while . we 'were within the sound of the wicked fiddles. Well, he was certainly delightful in the morning and long will I remember how graciously he could point a moral and adorn a tale. To return to the game', in the second contest they beat us, one point, show ing I think that our high privates did better fighting than our leaders. Nobody could stay here a whole day without making the acquaintance of two young gentlemen, the most noted, the best known, the universal favorites at the springs. Tom and Sammy. Charlotte has the honor of claiming the former as one of her distinguished resi dents, while Richmond, Va., is so for tunate as to be the local habitation of Sammy. They have the entree of every circle their call is the open sesame at every door their voice is heard all day long and their names are on every lip. They are well nigh ubiquitous. At the spring you meet them up and down the alley they ride their clattering steeds and then carry them to water in the branch, where a sudden trans formation scene takes place and the horses are changed into long poles to stir up the pretty little white ducks that are swmming and diving in shady pools. They are not much of ladies' men as yet, but if they fulfil the prom ise of the present they will do their share of lady-killing when the time comes. At present their efforts in that line are confined to their mammas and nurses, and one does not know which to admire most, the exuberant vitality of these youngsters or the beautiful pa tience of these same lovely mammas. And now trusting I have not too greatly taxed your kindness I bid you , adieu. Veni-Vidi. IOSTJlKKN for consumption.
