Who is Mrs. Winslow 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 arid nurse, principally
unioiiK 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,
lor children teething. It operates like magic
giving rest and health, and Is moreover, sure to
regulate the bowels. In consequence or this ar
ticle, Mrs. Winslow is becommg 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.
Winslow 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
h;is given it the benefit of Mrs. Wlnslow's Soothing
Syrup. Try it, mothers try it now. Ladies' Visi

CITY AFFAlltS.
Proceediaga of tbe Board of Alder
men The board of aldermen met in month
ly session yesterday afternoon. Pres
ent : The Mayor, Aldermen Scott, Mil
ler, Schenck, Long, Hutchison, Walker
and Adams.
Joseph Prim, on motion, was allowed
to transfer his liquor license to J. C.
Springs.
F. I. Osborne, Esq., appeared before
the board and made a statement of the
circumstances under which the old
sign of the Singer Sewing Machine
Company had been taken down; that
the mayor pro tern, had permitted the
old sign to be taken down that a new'
one might take its place, and the mayor,
on returning to the city, ordered the
same to be removed. The company
asked some relief at least to be allow
ed to replace the old sign.
After a lengthy discussion on the
subject, Alderman Schenck offered the
following resolution, which was
adopted :
That hereafter all signs which may
be erected in the city shall be attached
to the building, provided the same shall
not project more than four feet from
the building, shall be securely attached
to the building, and shall be placed not
less than ten feet above the sidewalk.
The editor of The Observer appear
ed before tbe board and asked, that in
asmuch as the newspaper tax had been
remitted in one case, that it be also re
mitted in the other, whereupon Alder
man Walker moved to repeal that clause
of the city revenue bill imposing a tax
on newspapers, which motion was
adopted. The law as it now stands
taxes job printing offices $10 each,
while the newspaper tax i3 abolished.
Application was made by two liquor
dealers for relief by the board, which
was granted. In each case a malt
liquor license (-575.00) had been taken
out, and afterwards a liquor license
($300,) and rebate was asked on the first
icense taken out in each case. The
sum or s?eo was reiunaea 10 one party,
and $65 to the other.
The oyster dealers of the city asked a
repeal of what is known a3 the fish and
oyster ordinance, preventing the sale of
either of thbse articles within the cor
noration on Sunday. A motion was
made by Alderman Long to allow deal
ers to dispose of oysters and fish on
Sunday up to 8 o'clock, a. m., which
was adopted by a vote of 5 to 2.
The mayor stated that under the in
struction of the board he had the coun
ty surveyor to make a survey of the
citv. and suggested that stones be
placed to mark the corners and lines,

THE CHRISTMAS TRADE.
JOTTINGS FBOnL'AN OBSERVER
REPORTER'S NOTE BOOK,
Saata Clans on th Wlnjr If ew Goods
and. Plenty of Them What ear Pa
trons are Prepared to Offer to the
Trade.
Christmas is in the air, and the bright,
beautiful weather yesterday was calcu-
lated.to make one think that the holi
day season would be quite an improve
ment on the weather a year ago. The
God of nature has so arranged it that
we must all te young once, and at first
blush it would seem that Christmas was
set apart especially for the young, and
yet we see a brighter smile on the
cheeks of the aged and care-worn, as the
little fellows enjoy themselves, and
their feelings are reflected in the older
faces.
If there is any time in the year when
the average citizen relaxes his purse
strings more readily than another, that
time is Christmas, and the shrewd deal
er in fancy articles is not slow to ap
preciate that fact. The merchant loads
his shelves with a tempting display of
good things" and the a. c falls into
line. In conformity with a long estab
lished custom of The Observer, we
give this morning a few seasonable
notices of the specialties offered by our
advertising patrons to the holiday
trade. The reader will find in these
notices, and what will follow hereafter,
a brief mention of the wares offered by
our patrons, and a careful perusal will
be of advantage to the purchaser in
making selections :
D. M. RIGLER,
As has been his custom for the last fif
teen years, has made special additions
to his stock to meet the wants of the
holiday Trade. On his shelves, taste
fully displayed, will be found a very
choice line of candies, nuts, foreign and
domestic fruits of all kinds, fresh and
tempting. Toys, embracing everything
in the line, are displayed in profusion,

found equal to the best Special atten
tion will be given to orders ior Christ
mas cakes, and Riglers reputation in
this line of business is well known to be
A 1. A visit to his store will satisfy

fectionery iline that he fully realizes

Here will be found the largest stock of
toys ever shown in Charlotte, as his
storeroom is literally and positively
filled with the ingenius handiwork of
yankee-land, besides which a large stock
of fancy candies, nuts, grapes, apples,
oranges, and all kinds ,of fruits, are
found arranged to attract the eye and
tempt the passer-by to part with his
lucre. A large corps of .holiday clerks
have already Jaeen engaged, and every
effort will be made to meet the demands
of the public. His prices will be found
reasonable, and courteous attention

propriate as a gift for a distant friend
or relative, and no gift is more appre
ciated than an artistically executed
photograph, and Van Ness stands in
the front row of his profession.
EDDINS' BOOK STORE.
In order to get an idea of what is in
this establishment it is absolutely ne
cessary to see it. The handsomest arti

Miss Claire Scott and company played
at the Opera House last night to a
rather small audience, but one which
gave decided approval to the powerful
play as rendered by Miss Scott, She is
unquestionably an actress of merit, and
; her rendering of some of the thrilling
I scenes in the tragedy was. very, affect
ing. She personated the idolatrous
mother and diabolical duchess In a
highly creditable manner. Her support
is good.
Death of nra, li J. McLang-hltn
Last week we mentioned the fact
that Rev. L J. McLaughlin, of Crab Or
chard township, had lost three sons
from typhoid fever within three weeks,
and that his -wife and a daughter was
seriously ill from the same disease. We
understand Mrs. McLaughlin died Sat-
i r lay night, and that there is no hope
of the daughter's recovery. This is the
fourth death in Mr. McLaughlin's fam
ily within thirty days an affliction
which enlists the sympathy of his en
tire circle of friends and acquaintances.

Tickets to be Withdrawn.
It is understood that the excursion
tickets to the Atlanta exposition will
be withdrawn from sale at this place on
; the 26th inst, and it may be well for
those wishing to go to make a note of
this fact. The exposition will close on
the 31st, and no return tickets will be
sold at this place after the 25th of
December, for the reason that the
time is too short to make the trip
of six dayp, as allowed in the con
ditions of sale. A party will leave the
city to-night for the exposition, and
those wishing to join the club can send
their names to this office to-day.
Complaints Unfounded.
The mayor yesterday stated to the
board of aldermen that from what in
vestigations had been made he was
satisfied that the complaints against
the cotton weigher were without foun
dation in fact. This is as it should be
for no one man has it in his power to
create more dissatisfaction than has
our cotton weigher, and at the same
time injure , the cotton business of
Charlotte. Such rumors are calculated
to gain credence, and we take it that
the earlier they are brought to the at
tention of those! most interested, the
easier it is to check them. This was
the object of Thb-Orserver in giving
the matter publicity.
A. High-Handed Imposition.
A gentleman yesterday disposed of
a gander in this city to one of our cred
ulous citizens, representing it to be of
a tender age, when, if he had told the
truth about the matter no doubt the
purchaser would through pure venera
tion have liberated the aged bird. It is
given on first-rate authority that the
gander in question was purchased by
a poultry-fancier, together with a fe
male goose, in the year 1868, for which
the sum of $15 was paid. It is said that
the bird at that remote date had all the
appearances of having reached maturi
tywhich in a gander is put at 15 years
and there is but little doubt that the
purchaser will eat his elders when he
tackles his Christmas dish. However,
the purchaser is ignorant of the out
rage perpetrated upon him, and if he
was not he could have the consolation
of knowing that he bought a $7.50 gan
der for 30 cents.
tW Prof. A. Campbell, who visited
Charlotte as a specialist last spring, has
again returned and for a few days will
be at the Frankenthal house.
Pen Picture of tne Editor

He is. perfectly harmless. You may
go into his den without fear. But he
has his Deculiarities. The sight of a

dangerous, and is apt to do bodily harm
to all within his reacn.
He is also much wrought up when a
man comes in with a little trifle he has
just dashed off.
There is one thing must do saia in me
editor's dispraise. His mind is so bias

Disd. on the night of the 15th Inst, Dr. Cyras L.
Hunter, of Llnooln ooi
r, orai 4 a rears, xiew
the roancest son ef the Rbt. Humphrey Hunter
the eminent Presbyterian dlrlne and Berolutlon
ary patriot, who Hred neat Tuckaseege Ford. Dr.
Hunter was a retired modest gentleman of the old
school. He appealed not to care tor wealth or the
superfluities of life, was eonsenratrre In all his
desires and Ttows, was a good neighbor and a gen
erous Mend. He was a ripe scholar and possess
ed of great learning. In the Lathi, Greek and
German Languages, as weU as the Xnglish, he
was well versed. His style was classic and pure.
With the various branches of science he was
equally familiar. He had devoted mnch attention
to Geology, Mineralogy and Bottany. Could his
fugitive publications on these and kindred sub
jects be collected together in a volume, it would be
worthy of any library, and enlighten tbe minds of
the most highly educated. He was well read In
general literature and fond ef the light and chaste
as well as of the more solid works of his time. To
history he was partial, and especially to that ef
his own State and section, as his "Sketches of
Western North CaroUsa" fully attest. In this
volume will be found many new characters and
events not chronicled except by his pen.
For long years he was an officer and exemplary
member of the Presbyterian Church, and lived
and died a good man and pure Christian (as all
who knew him believe.)
Or. Hunter was married twice; first to Miss
Sophia, youngest daughter of General Peter For
ney. His second wife was Miss . Lyman, who
with one sen, as well as one daughter, by the
former marriage, survives to mourn their great
bereavement With their tears of Krfef auwhe
knew the deceased will join in deep sympathy and
condolence, and lament the loss to the country of
a useful, unselfish man, and pure Christian gen
tleman. Tbe writer has known Dr. Hunter In the varied
relations of life for over fifty years, was once his
pupil and neighbor and knows whereof he writes.
