The annual fair hop takes place
in Wadesboro to-morrow evening at
Masonic Hall. The Observer returns
its thanks for an invitation to be pres
ent. The Library Association did
not meet last night, as the weekly
meetings will hereafter be held on Fri
day instead of Tuesday night as hereto
fore, 3T The exact location of the water
works stand pipe was staked off in the
court house yard yesterday. The dis
tribution of the main piping continues.
"Several letters and postals were
received in the city yesterday announc
ing the safe arrival of the Hornets'
Nest Riflemen in Richmond and very
large crowds in that city all going to
Yorktown.
ZS" The Observer acknowledges with
thanks a complimentary pass to the
third annual fair of the North Carolina
Industrial Association (colored) which
is to be held in Raleigh from October
3lst to November 4th, 1881.
2T On the complaint of Sallie
Thomas, the woman who was robbed
several days ago of $41, Semor Harris,
colored, was placed under bond of $200
to appear before Justice Davidson next
Friday to answer the charge of the
robbery.
The feeble drizzles of Monday
were preliminary to a genuine rainy
day yesterday. It really rained with
considerable spirit. Several people re
port that their horses became much
frightened at the unusual spectacle of
water falling from the clouds.
EST The worn places in the brick
pavement in front of the Trade street
facing of the Central Hotel were being
filled in yesterday with plain dirt. It
is a considerable improvement on the
worn brick, but one can't help imagin
ing that this sort of pavement will not
make the streets irresistibly attractive
this winter.
2T Mayor DeWolfe has left the city
for a few weeks on a visit to his old
home in East Tennessee. It is his first
absence from Charlotte for any length
of time in six years. Alderman E. K.
I Osborne is mayor pro tem. according
to a provision of the board at its last
meeting, in view of the absence of the
mayor.
tW Judge Avery concluded the fall
term of Marion county Superior Court
yesterday and reached this city last
night. He says the State docket just
concluded exhibited more elaborate or
namentation in records of varied ex
ploits with pidtol, knife, brass knucks
and hickory sticks than it has been his
good fortune to have witnessed hereto
fore. The Spoopendyke Letter
The Spoopendyke letters in pamphlet
form, issued by W. B. Smith & Co., 27
Broad street, New York, has reached
the enormous sale of 240 thousand.
Those who have read these letters aa
they appeared in the Brooklyn Eagle
fresh from the pen of their author, Mr.
Stanly Iluntley.will not wonder at their
extraordinary popularity. Spoopen
dyke marks an epoch in American
books and American humor.
"Evicliou" oi tUe 25lU.
Mr. C. E. Verner's dramatic company
is booked for the Charlotte opera house
for the evening of the 25th instant.
The company will probably play "Evic
tion," an Irish drama written by Mr.
Verner himself, who takes the main
part as "Terrence." The Charleston
News and Courier says the play is in
tended to portray the hardships of the
tenant system in Ireland, and is con
structed with considerable skill.
A Vouibf ul Opera Ilotme Manager
l'robably the youngest opere house
manager in the United States is Mr.
Harvey Orr, of the Charlotte opera
house, who succeeds Mr. L. W. Sanders,
his step father, in the management for
this season. Mr Orr is not yet 18 years
f age, but he will assume the difficult
position with the business sagacity of a
much older man, and will undoubtedly
keep our theatre fully up to its estab
hshed satisfactory standard.
Ciijr Taxcu.
The City Clerk has completed the en
'jstment of property for city taxes. The
'isted taxes will amount to $25,000.
A"e special taxes, licenses, cotton, &a,
will bring between $5,000 and $6,000
lnore. The list has been handed over
to the tax collector, and he desires tax
payers to remember that by theamend
etl charter he is to square up his ac
counts and turn them over to the city
nuance committee by the 1st of Janu
ai7. To enable him to do this all taxes
should be paid by the middle of Decern
ber.

Special Term of Superior Court
Mr. Vail, chairman of the board of
county commissioners, received an or
der from Got. Jar vis yesterday, issued
on the recommendation of JudgeAvery,
for a special term of court to begin on
the 9th of January, 1882. No grand
jury will be summoned, as only civil
cases are to be tried. The term is to be
continued until the business is disposed
of. Who the Judge will be is not yet
decided. The county cOmmissloneas,
some time ago, refused to recommend
this special term, although the bar
unanimously requested it.
Not Coming Ala t
The Rentz-Santley female minstrel
trourje, around whose unadorned visits
to Charlotte cluster so many pleasing
recollections, is even now excitiug the
hey dey in the blood of the bald heads
of neighboring cities; but it is learned
with painful regret that they will, in
all human probability, so far. prove un
grateful to the delicate attentions and
enthusiastic receptions with which they
have been uniformly received in this
community heretofore, as to take the
Wilmington and Columbia route to the
South. .
A Painful Accident.
Mr. W. A. Sing, one of the workmen
in the planing mill of Mr. Josiah As
bury, yesterday evening a short while
before 6 o'clock, had his hand cut near
ly off at the wrist by a jig saw. His
wrist-band was loose and was caught
by the flying saw and the arm was
drawn after it. A main artery was cut
in two and the bone of the arm was
cut to some distance. The wrist-band
was tied tightly around the arm above
the cut and checked the bleeding until
a physician arrived. He will be kept
from his work for three months it is
feared.
Southern musical Journal.
The October number of the Southern
Musical Journal, published by Ludden,
Bates & Co., Savannah, Ga., which has
been received at this office, begins the
new volume, and, as usual, it is a sur
prise in excellence. The publishers do
not flood us with promises.but prefer to
delight in performances. The rapid
growth in favor is evinced by the fact
of the advertisements having overflow
ed and crowded even the title page, as
much as by the rapid swelling of the
subscription list It is rare to find a low
priced paper excellent, and yet the
Journal, whose premiums repay its
cost, is never poor.
What lie Thinks ef Charlotte.
The editor of the Wadesboro Intelli
gencer, a brand new paper, full of brand
new news, recently visited Charlotte
and received the pleasant impressions
which find expression from him as fol
lows: "Charlotte is without question
one of the prettiest, pleasantest little
cities in the South, if not in the United
States. There is a general aspect of ease,
comfort and contentment noticeable on
every hand, and that squalid misery
among the poorer classes, which often,
too often, exists almost within the very
shadow of the homes of opulence, there
seems to be totally absent. And then,
the people of Charlotte all appear to be
happy and so friendly. This is particu
larly manifest to a stranger, who is
greeted by nearly every one he meets
with a bow, and as pleasant a smile as
though he were an acquaintance of a
lifetime. It i3 stated, also, that there
is more actual wealth in Charlotte than
any other city of its size in the South.'
Drnmmers' Licences.
The city tax collector is frequently
called upon by travelling salesmen for
city license. Neither Charlotte nor any
other North Carolina town demands
any municipal license from commercial
travellers. The State license, costing
$100 annually, with a penalty of $250.
exempts salesmen in North Carolina
from the payment of a further license
tax. But in most of the other Southern
States the municipal, instead of the
State license, is issued.
Here are some of the charges of some
of the towns:
Hawkinsville, Ga., makes a call of $5
per day on the drummer; Mobile, Ala.,
demands $3 per day ; Little Rock, Ark.,
won't buy anything from anybody un
less he pays $5 per week, cash down ; in
Florida various sums are asked yearly
$5 per week at Fernandina ; Augus
ta, in Gaorgia, wants $3 per day ; Sav
annah, $25 per quarter; New Orleans.
in Louisiana, takes $10 per week;
Charleston demands $10 per week, as
does Memphis, in Tennessee; Texas,
like North Carolina, sells a State tax at
$50 per year, and Virginia at $100 per
yetr.
Ifleteorlc showrra To-Night and To-
JMorrow Night.
Last night was the first night of the
three, the 18th, 19th and 20th, instant,
on which, the astronomers have assured
us, there were and are to be grand me
teoric showers. But with that perver
sity which characterizes all uncontrol
able or accidental events, from the
stumping of the sore toe to rain on
picnic days, the heavens, last night,
were thickly clouded for the first time
in weeks and the celestial fireworks
were not visible. Considering the
drought one who would so far influence
the weather as to publicly express a
desire for fair weather even in antici
pation of these meteoric showers,
would deserve the reprobation of the
community but in case it should be
fair to-night or to-morrow night, or
both, the conscientious reporter, con
siders it his duty to inform the pub
lic that the best time to see the phe
nomena is between midnight and moon
rising, which now occurs about 4 o'clock
in the morning. In the east, after 9
o'clock in the evening, the planets Jupi
ter and Saturn will be conspicuous.
Jupiter cannot fail to be recognized, for
it is by far the most brilliant object in
the sky except the moon.
This Is to certify, that after suffering the most
excruciating pain for two years from chronic rheu
matism, Mia using immense Quantities of lini
ments, oils and musicians' redoes. St. Jacobs Oil
was recommended to me by a friend. I used it for
a few weeks and him not nffonvi with rheama-
Qsm from that time until the present nearly six
months, i now consider myself entirely curea,

Tb.e Star of Bethlehem."
In reply to a correspodent who asked
to be told what is the large brilliant
star now visable near the Seven Stars
and which some persons call the "Star
of Bethlehem," the New York Sun
says : "The brilliant twinkler near the
Pleiades, or Seven Stars, is the planet
Jupiter. The star that is sometimes
called the Star of Bethlehem is not now
visible, although, according to the cal
culations of some astronomers, another
appearance of it is due, and it may blaze
out at any moment. This star was last
seen in 1572, in the time of Tycho Brahe.
It shone out suddenly where no star
was visible before, and was so bright
that it could be seen at noonday. It
gradually faded, assuming various hues
as it did so, until it disappeared. This
wonderful star is believed to have been
seen in the years 1264 and 945. Its ap
parent period extended backward
would indicate an appearance of this
star about the time of the birth of
Christ; hence its name, Star of Bethle
hem. If you wish to know where to
watch for it, look some forty degrees
to the northwest of Jupiter, and you
will see a group of stars arranged thus:
3
These are in the constellation Cassi
opeia, and the dot marked - snows
where the great star is expected to ap
pear.
Tha Care of Carp In Winter.
As very many of our farmers have
made fish ponds and stocked them with
carp within the last year they are of
course unfamiliar with many things
conducive to the growth and welfare of
this lately prominent fish, from which
so much is hoped for the peopling of
our ponds.
Here are some directions from the
Forest and Stream for the care of the
carp during winter:
The inflow and outflow channels
of ponds must be constantly kept clear
of ice and the snow partially removed
to afford a necessary amount of light.
The main surface of the pond, however,
should be left undisturbedjsince snow
helps to keep off the extreme cold.
When the ice bears, air-holes should be
provided, and these shou'd be sawn, not
chopped. To protect these from further
action of the frost thin poles should be
laid athwart them, covered with a thin
layer of branches, reeds or rushes. On
no account should the air-holes be made
above the spot where the fish have con
gregated for the Winter, and the most
suitable position for them is at opposite
ends of the pond, close to the in and
utflow, so as to secure a maximum
aeration of the water. The air-holes
must be examined daily for signs of the
dispersion of the fish these are dis
coloration of the water, the appearance
on the surface of dead water, beetles
and spiders, or fish gasping for air.
Should these unhoped for signs occur,
the number of air-holes must be largely
increased, and as much circulation as
possible given to the water. If these
measures prove unavailing, and there
is no immediate prospect of thaw, all
that can be done is to net the pond and
transfer the fish to other and better
water. All noise on the ice, such as that
caused by cutting ice for storage, skat
ing or sledging, is to be avoided, other
wise the fish will be roused and tempt
ed to rise to the surface, where, in all
probability, they will freeze fast to the
ice and die in consequence.
