WE CONFIDENTLY ASSERT
and can Satlxfactorily Prove there is no instance
on record of a case of dyspepsia or torpid liver
that cannot be relieved and positively cured by the
systematic use of Simmons Liver Regulator. This
Is no vain boast, but an established fact; and suf
ferers from these diseases deny themselves the
blessings of health and comfort by refusing to
give the Regulator a trial. It is no compound of
adventurers, but a meritorious medicine which
has won its high reputation la countries where
torpid livers prevail and where nature supplies
the roots and herbs to cure the disease common
to its climate.

Company, heard at Taylorsville last
week, involves $3,600, taxes levied by
the county on that portion of the West

ISP" It is more than probable that the
case against Harrison Dockery, charged
with participation in the Thompson

this man was brought to Charlotte for
safe-keeping, and was taken back to
Taylorsville to stand his trial last week

was Miss Rutland, of Sumter, S. C. The
ateness of the hour at which the mar

which the arrangements were made,
preclude such notice as we would like
to make. However, best wishes to the
happy couple.

A Big Steal by a Little Negro.
Day before yesterday evening a little
negro, who gave his name as William
Moore, and who is only nine years old,
entered the lot in the rear of Brothers
& Henderson's store and selected a mule
from a number of animals hitched
there, and removed it to the lot in rear
of Springs & Burwell's store, where be
and the mule, camped until yesterday
morning. After completing his toilet,
the little fellow, early in the morning,
commenced casting about for a capital
ist, announcing his intention of selling
the mule for the sum of three dollars.
He was soon picked up by the police,
and yesterday afternoon a countryman
came forward, identified the mule and
took possession of it, while the little
negro, who is too small for legal pun
ishment, was placed in the hands of
'Squire McNinch, who will bind him
out as soon as some party is found who
will take him. The boy seemed not to
realize the gravity of his offence, and
stated in justification of the act that his
mother had been turned out of her
house, and he had no where to go ; had
no shoes, clothes, nor anything to eat,
and it was his intention to supply all
these wants with the proceeds realized
from the sale of the mule. The owner
no doubt is fortunate that the animal
fell into the hands of an inexperienced
thief, as it was a valuable one, and
would sell for a much better price than
that placed upon it by the little negro.
Our County Schools.
Rev. Mr. Waller, superintendent of
public instruction for Mecklenburg
county, has made his report to the State
Superintendent for the year ending 30th ,
November, 1861. The report shows that
during the school year 69 teachers have
been examided and approved, of the fol
lowing grades and sexes :
First grade white males 11 ; white fe
males 6 total 17.
Second grade white males 7; white
females 7; colored males 12, colored fe
males 3 total 29.
Third grade White females 1, color
ed males 14, colored females 8 total 23.
There have been 206 public schools
taught in the county during the year
95 for whites and 111 for colored peo
ple, in which a total of 3,011 pupils were
enrolled, divided in color and sex as
follows : White males 1,472, white fe
males 1,104 ; colored males 1,523, colored
females 1,488. The average attendance
has been : Whites 1,694, colored 1,959.
The school terms have averaged eight
weeks, and the average compensation
has been $25 per month for white teach
ers, and $18 per month for colored
teachers.
The number of school districts are re
ported as 77 for whites and 56 for col
ored. The failure of the school committees
to report the census of children of
school age necessitated the using of
last year's school census, which gives
the following:
White children males 2,970, females
2,629 total 5,599.
Colored children males 2,480, females
2,197 total 4,787 making a grand total
of children in the county of school age,
10,386.

Postal Crooked
The Concord Register, of Friday, has
the following as the first paragraph of
an article over a column, in length, on
the irregularities, carelessness or bad
management of the railway mail ser
vice in this vicinity:
"We have, in the matter of postal de
partment outrages, suffered in this part
of the country, carried out strictly the
injunctions of holy writ, and been 'pap
tient, long suffering,' in hope that in
reasonable time correction would come,
but instead of improvement it goes
from bad to worse until it has become
intolerable."
Following this is an enumeration of
the causes of complaint, and every
newspaper publisher and reader cannot
but agree that the bill of indictment
made by the Register is a just one. For
a month or more past the editor of Thb
Observer has been almost in daily re
ceipt of letters from postofflces north of
this place in which subscribers to this
paper have given him the cheerful in
formation that their papers must be
stopped unless they are sent on the
proper mail, and this after everything
necessary has been done to place the
paper in the hands of its patrons in due
time after publication. The evil is one
which seriously affects the interests of
the reader as well as the publisher, but
the latter most seriously, and there is
no excuse to be made by the manage
ment of the service why such a state of
affairs should exist
This condition of things has prevail
ed to a greater or less extent ever since
Mr. M. V.Bailey, the former division
superintendent, was transferred. The
whole arrangement seemed to have be
come demoralized on his removal, and
a very large number of. people in this
section of the country would like to
have a diagnosis of the case furnished,
and there is no better way to have the
evil remedied than to make public de
mand for what is due the public.
Church music
It is an indisputable fact that many
'church choirs of the present day intro
duce music into the sanctuary which, to
a congregation of thirty years ago,
would be horrifying. It seems perfect
ly natural for the organist, in the vol
untary and interludes, to inject snatch
es from the favorite airs of the day,
and while the effect may be pleasing to
the ear, there are many good people
who do not approve of it. A promi
nent church member has handed us a
clipping from a newspaper, bearing on
the subjeet, with a request to publish,
which is given without further com-
ment-
"It is a notorious fact, but one which
many of our church choirs are slow to
learn, that the masses have no appre
ciation of operatic music. We see
many manifestations of this. Three
years ago a farewell concert was given
to Theodore Thomas in New York
City, on the eve of his departure for
Cincinnati. The audience was very
large, and was composed of the elite of
New York. Miss Emma Abbott, the
noted opera singer, had volunteered to
sing one of her operatic pieces during
the evening. It was rendered with
faultless precision. At its conclusion
she was heartily encored, which was
for the purpose of bringing her back
upon the stage and eliciting another
song, and not so much with a view of
applauding her for the music just ren
dered. This was apparent. She an
swered by singing that old, familiar
piece, "Auld Lang Syne. Joy was de
picted upon every face as she held the
vast audience spell-bound, and such vo
ciferous and tumultuous applause as
followed had never been seen before.
The scene was absolutely indescriba
ble. This, though the expression of a
cultivated New York audience, was
but an exhibition of the tastes and
feelings of the masses the world over.
J3ut how difficult it is for some of our
church choirs to realize this fact!
The Graded School Location Letter
from Superintendent Waller.
In reply to the complaints about the
location of the city graded school, no
ticed in yesterday's Observer, Rev. W.
T. Waller, superintendent of education
for this county, writes a letter, which
is given below, in explanation of the
matter. While it is admitted that the
objections to the location are in a meas
ure just, still the public interested will
see that the committee having the mat
ter in charge has secured the best 1 oca-
ion available, and this fact should be
sufficient to remove all blame from
hose making the selection. We give
he letter to the public, believing that it
will be received as a satisfactory ex
planation, and bespeak for the officials
the encouragement and support of all
expecting to become patrons of the
school:
To the Editor of The Observer:
The complaint which appeared in the
last issue of the Home and Democrat,
and which you notice in your issue of
this morning, is just. Those having the
matter in charge have acted as they
thought for the interest of the children
of the city. I beg to offer this as an
answer to the complaint and ask you to
please insert it:
isu Adeeming tue warn scnoois as
insufficent for the wants of the child
ren, they, the committee, thought it
best to consolidate these and form a
"graded school."
2d. ine Dest, ana in race tne omy
buildings that we could secure were
those we now occupy.
3d. Smaller children are not received
in the school "at the far-off corner of
the first w ard. The school for these is.
indeed, in the first ward, but much
more central than the male department.
Children under 12 years of age are re
ceived only in the female department
on Fifth street. The committee thought
while it was a little far for children to
walk, yet a good school would some
what compensate ror this, l answer
this complaint for this reason. We wish
to make a good school and we feel that
with the support of the citizens of
Charlotte we will succeed. We have a
competent force of teachers and au is
at present worKing weiL
I send this to you, Mr. Editor, rather
than to the Home and Democrat only
that it may reach the public sooner.
Respectfully,
W. T. Waller,
Supt Public Instruction.
