When these changes take place Monday, a total of 16 freight and passenger trains will leave and arrive in Charlotte daily over the two divis ions of the Carolina Central. The Assessment of the Site for the Keeervotr. The survey of the site for the water works was completed yesterday morn ing, and the commissioners having pre viously inspected the land assessed it at the rate of $112.60 per acre. This as sessment covers 8.86 acres of the Tor- rence land. - Enough to make up the ten acres will be purchased from Col. Myers, who owns land adjoining. The water works contractors will deposit the money. $975. but will appeal from the assessment, which they ay is ex cessive. tilfual Officer O'Donogbue Signal Service Officer. Mr. S. A.

A large illustrated nrnsnAftna nf t h Baltimore "Oriole" festival was reviv ed at this office yesterday. It will be after the fashion of the Mardi Gras fes tivals of the Gulf cities. It is claimed that the moving tableaux which have charmed the Southern fancy will be presented in richer form, oricrinal de signs with improved mounting, while local tableaux will present features not only novel, but intenselv interestim?. The mysticism which is ss attractive a reature in the Southern pageants will be a feature of the Oriole also. The 10th. llth and 12th of Or.tnber urn th days, and the rates to Baltimore and return will be unprecedentedly cheap. Some Reward Deserved, The three eentleman from Tork county deserve the gratitude of our Esopie lor bringing to jail the burglar iggers whose recent operations are un paralleled for their boldness and rapid succession in the criminal records of the city. It is hoped that the punish ment which fie will get will have more effect than the hanging of Home eigh teen months ago; but it is much regret ted that there is no provision by the city for the reward of those who thus unsolicited bring our criminals back to us. The occurrence has sucrcrested the discussion in police circles of the estab- iisnment oi a fund, or the granting of power to the mayor to suitably reward such dangerous service as the capture of this robber, which was no small un dertaking, surrounded as he was by his friends who were in thorough sympa thy with and ready to defend him.

Miller, pastor of the First Presby terian church of this city, died of con sumption, complicated with malarial fever. Miss Miller was a young lady of those quiet Christian virtues which yield a rich harvest of friends among those whose friendship is most unself ish and unworldly, but whose bitter grief at the death of their friend is only alleviated by the consciousness of her eternal welfare. The memory of Miss Amelia Miller will be to all who knew her a fragrant one, but to her intimates where tne poignancy or tneir mourning is softened by time, it will be as the memory of the music we associate with pleasant times gone by. The funeral services win tate piace at the First Presbyterian church, this afternoon, at 5 o'clock. They' will be conducted by tbe Rev. W. R. Atkinson. The sympathies of Dr. Millers con gregation and of the community are extended to himself and his household in the death of his only and much loved daughter. The Wonnded Burglar Captured. Three gentlemen of York county, South Carolina, brought to town yes terday the wounded Biggers or Part low. They captured him in a house near the State line to which he had been compelled to go from his exces sive weakness. He has been living out in the woods for two weeks with two severe wounds. One ball went in at the rear of the hip andcame out just oeiow the groin. The other ball took effect just above, and is still in the body. The man is mucn emaciatea ana naa lo oe brought to town in a buggy. He was taken to the jail and there met Ben Brown alias Bob White, colored, who is to be tried Monday for the burg lary of the bouse of Mr. Wm. Eller. X . - . ww r i a. J It seems that Krown or wnne ana Biggers or Partlow. are comrades in crime and that they both came from the same neighborhood in York county. When they met in jail they at once be-o-an to accuse each other and a series of criminations and recriminations ensued much" to the elation or tne omcers. Riffffera accused White of having stolen thft iroods which were found at the house nf the former and having Drougnt them "there for safe keeping. White responded that it could, be proved by Mergers7 wire tnac ne naastoien mem himself, and further that he (Biggers) had burglarized the house of Mr. Eller acrainst His VY nite si nroiest. rv uue further' nnA1 him Of having COn fessed to the robbery, of Mrs. Moyers And Mr. Wolfft'a stores.

Jarollna midland to bo Protected No Discrimination Against Balti more, Etc Special to the Baltimore Sun. White Sulphur Springs, W. Va., sept. 7. president John b. Barbour, of the Virginia Midland Railroad, who has been spending the last ten days at tue vjreeuurier w uiuo oaipuur oprmgs, was found this morning by your corres pondent as he was opening his mail up on the front porch. He readily con sented te an interview, and the corres pondent remarked : "xnere seems to oe some misunder stand, or at least a very considerable display of ignorance, concerning tbe absorption or your road bv the Rich mond & Danville syndicate ?" "There has been no absorption. The Bichmond and Danville has not bought tne Virginia Midland, but they have been brought under one management. Their interests are possibly in some measure competitve, but they could be operated more cheaply and better for the interests of their stockholders and their patrons if held in a common in terest. Approaches were made to us by he managers of the Bichmond & Dan ville, but I know enough of paper guar antees to know that they can always be DroKen wnenever eitner party cnooses to do so, and it may or may not pay to enforce them. The Vijginia Midland was pledged to certain extensions, and it could never afford to permit itself to ose Its -entire independence. Finally parties holding a controlling interest proposed to me to secure the controlling interest in the Virginia Midland, these to interests to be held by the new association, so that they could never be separated; any sale of any part in this interest to carry with it an interest in both the Richmond and Danville syn dicate and the Virginia Midland an alliance in which neither should be sac rificed to the other. When such a plan i J A - X I J A- A. 1 1 was proposea tu uie, x saiu mau we uau at least a basis for negotiation. As a frerequisite for the opening of the plan, had first to secure guarantees, from them that the North Carolina Mid- and would be pushed to completion. and that the interest of Baltimore city, which Mr. uarret naa so zealously guarded, should not be injured in the east, and, 1 may add, mat it was un derstood that Baltimore was to be made the port of export fox the enormous cot ton traffic of tbe combined roads. I could not go to Mr. Garrett, and, hold ing tbe views tnat ne did, ne certainly could not entertain any proposition for the sale of tbe .Baltimore and Ohio in terest to which I was not a party. I went to him. assured him that all his projects should be carried out as agreed upon; and that there should be no dis crimination againat Baltimore or the Baltimore and Ohio. When the cer tainty of this was shown him, it took us a very little time to settle it" "When was tne matter decided up on V" "About a fortnight ago. Yes. exact- y two weeks ago to-day." "Wnat do you wins: oi tne iuture oi he allied corporation?" "They can be made immensely profit able to their stockholders and be of in calculable benefit in the region through which they run in proportion as they co-operate with the people and develop the country tnrougn wnicn mey run. a have never been a rauroao speculator and have always thought local develop ment the true policy to pursue, in fact t was about on tnat piatrorm mat i was elected to Con grese. I told the peo ple of my district that their prosperity could be reached only through the same means as in the North ; that they must develop their industries and become self -supporting. There was" no use in trying to raise gram against tne west, but thev had vast mineral Wealth in the ground, and they could raise Cotton and tobacco and estaDiisn manuiac tories. The war wiped out all our values, swept away all our railroad stocks, our bank stocks and our bonds, and we must recover tnem, or civiliza tion will fail of its object and the race will go backwards. There must oe pro gress or retrogression, and everything is favorable now for the industries of the South." "Does your road fuiiy occupy tne field?" . "So fully that there can be no cnanee of rivalry by laterals into the isiue Ridge. We can go up the natural courses of the streams wherever it is necessary to reach after ore, which can gain an outlet only over our road. We have now our ranann jMarrow-wuttgo Rranr.h to fine beds of Bessemer steel at Rocky Mount, Va and lateral lines of ten or twelve miles in Amherst countv. Va.. will take us to other ore hflda on tne J ames river. - ' . . - as- Whv dn vou consider it necessary to continue the. North Carolina Midland, which is. in a measure, parallel to tne Richmond and Danville?" "We are pledged to do so, and that tiAdirn must be redeemed: but. aside rom that,, it will give us virtually a doable track, though some distance apart, and at tbe same time develop a new district and -give us all a good traffic, from the Charlotte and States ville road. It will enable us to uo more hnftineaa than with a single road. Tn the course of the conversation, the substance of wbich I have given, Presi-f dent Barbour said the business of the road had largely increased during tne past year; that it was now in so good a J 1 Jlli-Z !. orv..11 tui Iranf pnysicai.cunuibum wav xm iuui w up without any extraordinary expendi tures, and that it had earned fourteen months' interest in six months' opera ting. ' It is more than evident that in securing President Barbour's co-operation with his line that the Richmond and Danville syndicate had secured a rhmntrh Worth and South line, which will afford Baltimore merchants a bet ter chance for Southern trade than ever before. , r " " v' : ' Senator Bill not Daaeronsly 111. , .
