EFThe ice of night before last was the heaviest that has been seen in this section for a long time. t&The bullion assays at the mint in this city amounted to 87,766.57 for the month of January. EF""Acroa3 the Continent" was played to a full house in Greensboro Saturday night. Eff" Tickets will be placed on sale to morrow morning for the Oliver Doud Byron Combination Friday night. t3T"The county finance committee composed of Messrs. T. L. Vail, R. M. White and J. F. Orr, will meet to-day for the transaction of business. EyWhen everybody is of the same opinion about the condition of the pub lic roads it is useless to try to get up a discussion. The supervisors are as dumb as gate-posts, so far as the public knows. tSTThe prices of wood, and almost every other article that is brought to Charlotte by wagon, would just now make a Gould or Vanderbilt squirm, to say nothing of how a poor man turns white when he Bees his supplies getting low. B3FIn the Arizona Star of Jan. 5th, Col. D. B. Rea is prominently mention ed in connection with some of the mining interests ef that territory. Col. Rea was formerly a citizen of this county, having removed to Arizona from Providence township some ten years ago. tSTP. B. Ruffin, secretary and treas urer of the North Carolina Railroad Company, in accordance with the ac tion of the board of directors at their meeting in this city last month, gives notice this morning of the payment of 3 per cent of the dividend declared, payable 1st March. tWlt is stated that last week an in dividual while in Charlotte purchased a 25lb. sack of flour, lOlbs. of sugar and some other small articles, and attempt ed to take them home in his wagon. When near the Jewish cemetery the wagon tilted, throwing out the whole lot, which disappeared in the mud and have never been recovered. t"Mr. Collier Cobb, of Chapel Hill, the author and publisher of a school map for North Carolina, is in the city for the purpose of introducing his map. the third revised and corrected edition of which is just out. The map has met with much favor throughout the State. tW There will be a grand domino hop given at the Central Hotel on Thursday evening, February 2d, by the old batch elors. All members of the Pleasure Club are invited without further notice. We think the old batcbelors have made up their minds to show that notwith standing the short crops and other ad verse circumstances, there is life in the old town yet. tSTAttcution is called to the fact, as advertised uflicially elsewhere, that all freights for the Atlantic, Tennessee and Ohio division of the Charlotte, Co lumbia and Augusta Railroad Company, which is the new designation ef the late Statesville and Charlotte road, will be received and delivered at the Cahr- lott,Columbia & Augusta freight depot. Freights now on hand will be delivered as usual from the old depot at the foot of Trad street, for to-day only. The Cleaned Club The Gounod Club held a very inter esting meeting Monday nlgnt at tne residence of Mrs. Morgan, and notwith standing the very unfavorable weather there wa3 a full attendance. Some im portant business, the nature of which will soon be made public, was transact ed, and several new members admitted. Within the past two months there have been seven new members electsd, and the condition of the organization, financially and otherwise,i highly satis factory to its members and friends. Cswtle ! the Golden Rule. Last night a Castle of the Golden Rule, the objects of which have been heretofore explained in these columns was instituted in this city by Friend Tuttle, Deputy-Commander at large. The order is a new.iastitution in this sec tion, but the effort to introduce it in this city met with a beginning of 17 charter members. The following officers were elected or the term ending June 3uth, next: P. C Dr. R. J. Brevard. C. Col. Chas. R. Jones. V. C . M. Martin. F.&R.S.-H. A. DeaL T. T. W. Allison. P. J. C Eagle. M. at A. W. D. Stone. H. O. Banks, W.T-S.14. Bigham. S. C. C. Smith, Trustees. W. P. Fraaler, M. Martin, R. Brewer. Destitution We are assured by the president of the Relief Association that there are many cases of destitution among the worthy poor of the city which call for assistance at once. There were seve ral gentlemen appointed by the associ ation to solicit aid for this purpose, nut go far the responses have amounted to almost nothing. To meet the urgency of some cases debts are now being per sonally contracted by soine of those who are engaged in assisting tne poor, in order that bread may be naa Dy these unfortunates, 'mere are many jn the pity now whp are without bread or wood, and seems inac mere statement of this faqtsnomaoe sufficient to stimulate those who pos sess plenty to contribute towards the relief so much needed. The destitu tion seems to be about equally divided between the white and colored, and while applicants are constantly coming but little can be done towards reliev ing thPir necessities. It is terrible to be -'wiibtuV fue in wjntif, but when ibe jack of bread is added the situation becomes more terrible. Monroe, Mich., Sept 25. 1876.

We are informed that the case of Fred IL Stith et al vs. John F. McKee etals,asuit of ejectment against the Conrad Hill Gold and Copper mining company, of Davidson county, was tried at the special term of the Superior Court for that county, on the 26th, 27th and 28th of January, and the court de cided that the company's title inlaw and equity was perfect, and gave a ver dict in favor of the company on all the points asked for in the pleadings. The amount involved was very large. Claelng- Bmle eI Clotntnsr. . D. Latta & Bro. announce a clos ing sale of clothing to the readers of The Observer this morning, in an ad vertisement which is calculated to im press every individual who will take the trouble to look over it. Unless one has kept up with the advance in the demands of merchants engaged in this particular line of goods, the mind fails to conceive the large and beautiful stock of goods which are annually sold out to make 100m for the stock appro priate for the succeeding season. Semi annually the Messrs. Latta offer their goods on hand at a sacrifice in the spring and fall. In the spring to close out their winter stock, and in the fall to sell out the summer goods. In the clothing business especially this is in cumbent upon the live clothier, who has made his profits on the earlier sales, and who now sells at a sacrifice, in or der to invest the money in spring goods, on the principle that "a nimble sixpence is better than a slow shilling." Bar gains may be expected, and we predict a prodigious sale, because the goods are on the shelves, and they are to be sold. Tne End Mat Yet. A correspondent of the Mining Re view gives some information which will no doubt lift a great load from the minds of the believers in Mother Ship ton prophecies, etc. The writer says: "The age of the planet is measured by the amount of coal in the basins under the grand prairies of the center of the continent; by the amount of ore in the iron mountains and hundreds of knobs, hills and ridges of iron ores ; by the vein system of the hundreds of basins in the lead fields of the upper and low er Mississippi ; by the veins grouped in families that form the great silver and gold belts of thi Nevada and Sierra Madre. Think of the Appalachian chain, with its mineral belt from Maine to Alabama yet barely touched ; of the silver fields of Central Mexico only mined on the surface. In 1878 1 passed an iron mountain in Central Mexico as large as the Pilot Knob in Missouri, and seventy miles to the nearest ranch That mountain of ore was bared to the same sun as shone upon the builders of the Pyramids of Egypt, and has waited all this time and must wait, possibly, a century to come. Think of the iron mountains of Wyoming of Lake Su perior! The world is yet in its salad days ; the north or south pole has not yet been discovered ; Dr. Kane found beds of lignite up to 75 degrees north ; the Platonic or great year has only de scribed one-sixth of its orbit, and that has taken 4,000 years."

The total number of deeds, chattel and land mortgages registered during the month of January of this year is 261 against 135 for January of last year. The increase is very nearly one hun dred per cent, and is the largest month's business in this line that has ever been done previously. There can be little doubt that by spring a larger amount p,f property will ho under mortgage tiian has ever before been, the case in the county. 0bbs- -"bV"-"-""""--- To always protect the weakest parts is a duty and it Is especially the duty of thoee whose longs are being weakened by the constant wear of cough ins to nrotect them by using a soothing remedy, iuch asbc.

It has just turned up, and we give it with pleasure, as it is to the point and may be considered applicable to the situa tion: To the Editor of the Observer: In reply to "Citizen" we are glad to note that our worthy mayor favors "an increase of taxes for permanent im provement of our streets," also "for the paving and curbing of some of the streets, theproperty owners to pay half tne expense: .Now, u our cnarter gives the board of aldermen authority to pave the streets and sidewalks upon these conditions, why has not an ordi nance to that effect been passed ? Why has not the mayor urged the matter ? We want good streets and certainly need paved sidewalks. Let him at once call a meeting of the aldermen and push this matter. Thus far, they have only met to repeal the ordinances prohibiting the sale of liquor and of cock-fighting. It is about time that they do something in the way of im proving the streets and walks. We trust that some action will be taken at once. Improvement. DIED. At the residence of her parents, near Alexan drian, this county, on the 14th day of November, 1881.

Bessie, thy days on earth are ended, And all thy troubles here beiow. Go, by angel bands attended, To thy Saviour's bosom, go. There on Elysium's flowery mount. Thy wafted soul shall calmly rest. And with transporting oys recount The many labors of the past She bad Just entered Into life. 4 A transient glimpse of earth she took; Then bade farewell to worldly strife, Without a frown or lingering look. Come where the silent dead repose, Recall to mind the days gene by! Come, think of early cherished friends, for here in death's long sleep they lie. But o'er ber grave true friendship rears A bright and more enduring shrine; Her memory lives In hearts embalmed, O, may such lasting love be mine. Remember, friends, when you draw near, a nd stand around her silent tomb, While on her dust you drop a tear, Her Bool Is In a happier home. ' 'Fair bloom the rosea o'er ber grave.
