BIT The sheriff reports the tax pay ers rather slow in settling, so far. Several Charlotte people took the noon train yesterday for the Atlan ta exposition. Isain Ruffin, colored, was yester day put in the station house charged with stealing a knife. There are now 20 prisoners in jail, of whom three are white. Among them are three colored women. - IW Dr. It. Gibbon left yesterday for King's Mountain to see Dr. Murphy, of that place, who is quite ill. X3T The bullion assays in the United States Assay office, in this city, for the month of October were $5,284 69. tW A special train was made up here yesterday and left on time on the Air-Line, the noon passenger from the North being behind time as usual. tTA Northern lady resident at Yorktown says whiskey was the best bond of fraternity between the North ern and Southern troops there. EThe Chicago Inter-Ocean says: "In detail, in finesse, in relation to parts, we regard his Richelieu as the most commendable of the three char acters Mr. Keene has thus far acted." tW Some of the main for the water works is being laid on southeast Trade street, and the foundation is being dug in the court house yard for the stand pipe. Work is also being done at the site of the reserviors. EThe filling up of the upper lake at Elmwood cemetery, and laying the space out in walks and flower beds, is a great improvement on the stagnant pool which rejoiced in the name of lake. It has also done much to purify the water in the lower lake. Not 300 Bale Second Crop Mr. W. S. Phifer, whose well conduct ed farm lies just on the outskirts of the city, says that he has made an estimate on his place of the much talked of sec ond crop. On 175 acres of land he does not expect to get more than 175 pounds of lint from the frosted second crop bolls. He thinks that not 300 bales of of this class of cotton will be sold in Charlotte during the season. Arret and JEcape of a Barn Burner. Mr. J. W. Marshall, who lives about five miles from town, yesterday morn ing stepped up to Mr. Jno. Wadstwortb, at his livery stable, and inquired if a negro man, whom he pointed out in the stable, wa3 hired there. The reply was in the negative, and Mr. Marshall, step ping towards the negro, remarked, "That is the scoundrel who burnt my barn in 1877." With this he collared him, and with Mr. Wadsworth's assist ance started up town with the criminal to turn him over to the authorities. The negro went without resistance and the gentlemen relaxed somewhat the tight ness of their grips. Taking advantage of this at the corner of Fifth street, the negro, with a sudden jerk, freed him self and darted down Fifth street like a flash. Pursuit was made in vain for the negro, whose swiftness was worthy of a run for life. The police were in formed of these circumstances and are on his track, but his arrest had not been reported up to a late hour last night. The negro's name is John Miller, alias Brown, alias Haynes. He is said also to be implicated in the murder of Jeff Dunn, in Providence township, some years ago. ITXen Stay Away From ness hoary with age and legalized by the laws of the State and nation." Be cause a business is hoary with acre and legalized by the State, is no proof what ever, that it is right or proper. Sin is as old as Adam and as black as soot.v In view of the disastrous conse quences to herself and her inhabitants, it Is a matter of astonishment, a burn ing shame, and an everlasting disgrace to any State to legalize the infamous traffic in intoxicating liquors and invest county commissioners, or any one else, with authority to license men, who de sire to engage in such a business, to deal out to their thirsty fellow men, this liquid fire, which continually eats at their vitals as doth a canker that annually debauches and destroys vast numbers of her best citizens, and fills the land with hopeless widows and help less orphans. It must be very trying to the conscience of a commissioner, if it be not a seared one, to issue a license to a rum-seller ; it is in effect saying to the man, take thou authority from me to make drunkards, murderers, assas sins, paupers, beggars, weeping wires and starving children. Take thou au thority to desolate homes, to corrupt magistrates, to pervert justice, to alien ate friends, to increase litigation and to dash to the groundjthe fairest prospects and brightest hopes of the once happy father, mother and child. Such is the unfailing fruit of the license system, and the work of the liquor seller, legal ized by the State of North Carolina, and advocated by the authors of the address under consideration. If the Republi-I can party in the future is to stand on this platform ; and if her numbers are to be increased, and her strength re newed bv the adoption and support of these anti-prohibition principles, then, i I for one, snail say, let her shadow has ten to grow less, and ner name go down speedily into dark oblivion.

ABSURDLY. 8TUPID AND FOOLISH to allow prejudice or Ignorance to get the better of good Judgment It has been amply shown and conclusively proven that constipation, bad breath, dyspepsia, kidney affections and all diseases of the liver, stomach and bowels have been cured and can be cured by simply taking Simmons Liver Begulator. It is harmless; not unpleasant and easily procured so there is no reason to be ignor ant of a true remedy. If you suffer, you have no excuse, for this medicine places certain relief and cure wl bln your reach. Who is Mrs. Wlnslow T As this question is frequently asked, we will sim ply say that she is a lady who for upwards of for ty years, has untiringly devoted her time and tal ents as a Female Physician and nurse, principally among children, she has especially studied the constitution and wants of this numerous class, and, as a result of this effort, and practical knowl edge, obtained in a lifetime spent as nurse and physician, she has compounded a Soothing Syrup, for children teething. It operates like magic giving rest and health, and Is moreover, sure to regulate the bowels. In consequence of this ar ticle, Mrs. Wlnslow is becoming world-renowned as a benefactor of her race; children certainly do rise up and bless her; especially is this the case in this city. Vast quantities of the Soothing Syrup are dally sold and used here. We think Mrs. Wlnslow has immortalized her name by this In valuable article, and we sincerely believe thous ands of children have been saved from an early grave by its timely use, and that millions yet un born will share its benefits, and unite in calling her blessed. No mother has discharged her duty to her suffering little one, in our opinion, until she has given it the benefit of Mrs. Wlnslow's Soothing Syrup. Try it, mothers try it now. Ladles' Visi tor.

One wagon yesterday brought in a monster gar weighing about fourteen pounds, his long sharp muzzle studded with the most formidable looking teeth. Confederate Bonds About $700,000 in Confederate bonds have been shipped from this city filling orders from the Northern cities. A telegram from Augusta, Ga , last night, stated that the interest in the sale of bonds there was still kept up, and that they brought from $10 to SI 1 per thou sand, which is considerably higher than they have sold here. One of the banks of this city has had its orders for Con federate bonds countermanded. An advertisement for $50,000 of bonds ap pears this morning.

John Bogus, alias John Erwin, from Rock Hill, a negro boy about 18 years old, and Nathan Williams, an eight year old ne gro boy of this city, both charged with the murder of a little negro boy eight years old named Pemberton; Bob Jones, colored, charged with the mur der, nearly two years ago, of a white man named Phillips in Union county, and the half-witted white boy Dockery from Alexander county, confessing to complicity in the Thompson homicide in that county, brought here to avoid lynching, is the list.

It will be remembered that about two years ago a negro man named Whitlar was run over near Davidson College by the locomotive and passenger train on the Atlantic, Tennessee & Ohio Railroad. The coroner's jury rendered a verdict that the man had come to his death in that manner. But it was learned yesterday that rumors prev ail ed around Davidson College that a few days ago a negro man confessed on his death bed that he had shot twice and killed Whitlar while in a dispute which arose between them while at work in a cotton field, and that he, the dying man, had placed the body on the track to avoid detection. Another story had it that the wife of Whitlar had made the confession on her death be that she had killed him. The rumors were very vague, and a reporter saw several people from Da vidson College yesterday, but could get nothing more definite than thi3. Why Nine Church At a Methodist minister's meeting in Cincinnati a few days ago the question, "Why do the people stay away from churches?" was under debate, short ad dresses being made by Revs. J. S. Whit ney, J. M. Walden, D. D., G. W. Kelly, J. Y. Dobbins, Bro. Cardaza, J. W. Bush ong, C. W. Barnes, S. D. Clayton, and R. II. Rust, D. D. Much was said of the depravity of mankind, and of the evil influences at work in society as agents in keeping the churches from being filled, but it was generally conceded that the preaching, with the old time earn estness, of the old fashioned Gospel which wrought such wonders in the days of John Wesley, would soon crowd every sanctuary in the country. The old fashioned Gospel is undoubt edly a drawing card but the abbreviat ed Gospel say twenty minutes, with, a3 Sydney Smith says, "a leaning to the side of mercy" -would be an even more powerful inducement. The reporter of The Observer, yesterday, out of curi osity asked one dozen irregular church attendants what would induce them to change, and three fourths of them re plied "shorter sermons," or words to that effect. Mortuary Report. The following is the mortuary re ports for Elmwood and Pinewood (col ored) cemeteries in this city during the month of October.

APPEARANCE OF THE POPULAR TRAGEDIAN THOS.W. KEENE, Supported by a specially selected Company, under the management of , Railroad Items. The meeting of the Western North Carolina Kailroad Commissioners to investigate the charges of freight dis crimination has been fixed for next Monday. The Raleigh News-Observer says Mr. W. II. Hicks has been appointed soliciting agent fof the Midland North Carolina Kailroad. notice that J. J. Mott & Co. have issued a second address to the people of North Carolina. The opening sentence of this heterogeneous production is an implied slur upon the character of the good people of this State. To be congratulated upon the over whelming defeat of a cause Yery dear to the heart of every right thinking man is, to say the least of it, an offen sive waste of words. To intimate that the Republican party, as a party, con gratulates itself upon, and rejoices over, the defeat of prohibition is a gratuitous assumption, wnicn tne races in tne case rin not verifv. The crafty effort of the authors of the address to set the Re publicans of North Carolina before the world as the anti-prohibition party, manifests a species of arrogance re garded with the utmost disdain. The attempt in this address to mix politics and prohibition, for personal and party purposes, is too artful to deceive any one; it is a sugar-coateu pui uianew will be simple enougn to swaiiow. If the Republicans of North Carolina, led by J. J. Mott & Co., are to become Ihe champions of free rum, then the better element of that party will aban don the organization in disgust and seek nolitical affiliation in other and better society.

These same gentlemen, referring to their former address, assert: "That great good resulted therefrom." If th e multiplication of drunkards, paupers and beggars, and the increase of wretch edness and misery are a "great good," then the object of the address was duly accomplished; for it is patent to every one, not wilfully blind, that drunken ness, with all its attendant evils, has increased, alarmingly, since the August election, when prohibition was defeat eri bv "the wise and timely action of the committee." The writer of this, himself a Eepnblican, Is not slow to condemn the act of 1877, known as "the county government act," but to affirm that the enactment of the prohibition bill was the legimate result "of this taking of power from the multitude and conferring it upon a pre scribed few," betraya a disposition to pervert the truth, with which, we hesi fkta to eharfirel even a revenue officer or arum-seller.
