Unfile transfoimation in the condi tion of the streets, wrought by the fa vorable weather and the scrapers, has been wonderful.

He has a fine lot of feathered songsters, and one of his bull-fiinches tucked its little head under its wing and gave up the ghost. KT A. S. Ford, a conductor on the Richmond & Danville road, was slightly hurt in Richmond Saturday by a section of Mayo's bridge giving way and pre cipitating a stage into the water be neath.

Sam Coley, an old conductor on the Richmond & Danville, heretofore running between Charlotte and Golds boro,has been transferred to the Chapel Hill road, and it is understood will make a daily run from Chapel Hill to Raleigh and return. dpTlM! day draws nigh when the malicious individual who has not the brains, nei ve or manhood to give an open insult, can avenge himself or her self be resorting to the comic or sar castic valentine. There are more hearts wounded in this way than are made glad by tokens of love and friend ship; more secret sorrow than pleasure produced by the observance of the cus tom which has been dwarfed from one of love and charity into one of re venge. Quick iriiui.porln.tior. Last Saturday a bill of goods was shipped from New York by steamer to Messrs. Wittkowsky and liaruch, of this city, and yesterday evening at four o'clock the goods were on the shelves, marked and ready for sale. They were shipped by freight over the Seaboard road, and came through on about the shortest time on record. midline Ue Town, A - . - . 1 . c.!),i;k vy man rame isi ;i wueiv ui su ago, in u:e muul ui lue miuiuy season, and after wading around town a por tion of the day took occasion to remark that ho thought the authorities were doing the proper thing in having blind ditches laid along the principal streets- He was a little behind the times, and this is what he thought was being done by the water works force, who were en gaged in ditching for pipe laying. Golden Days. "Golden Days" is the title of a juve nile publication of much merit, as it is the finest in every particular that we have yet seen. The illustrations are excellent, the print is bold and clear, and it is in every way well suited to meet the want which it is designed to supply. The contents are excellent in character, and while much appears to amuse and please th0 iittle ones, much useful information is imparted through its pages. The publication is such as we can commend to the public. James ElversoD, publisher, Philadelphia. Iuereate in Acreage. A farmer of Mallard Crek township, who last year planted one hundred acres in cotton, tells u3 that for the coming season he will increase his acreage at least twenty-five acres, and that, perhaps, he may plant as much as sfivp.ntv-five acres in excess of his last year's csop. He says there seems to be no disposition among the farmers in his neighborhood to abandon cotton farming, or reduce the acreage, but on the r.nntrarv many will plant more largely than heretofore.

The (2 filler Slare Lut Night, The 4 Galley Slave," a celebrated play, and one which has had a most success ful run in this country, was presented last night by an unusually strong cast, and one which gave satisfaction to the audience. This, like many other popu lar plays, has out-lived its attractive ness, as every theatre-goer in the coun-1 try is familiar with the piece, and while it may be presented for several years to come, it may be said to have lost much of its Donularitv in Charlotte. The au dience last night was considerably short of that which would have greeted some thing of a different order, but those present gave unqualified endorsement to the manner in which the play was presented. Train Hobbery at UolUibarff. Monday night, while the south bound freight on the north road was waiting on a side track at Holtsburg, a station beyond Salisbury, for the mail and pas senger train to pass, the conductor dis covered a negro leaving the train with a box, and moving off at a rate of speed not warranted by ordinary circum stances, and on investigation it was found that four loaded cars had been broken open after the train took the side track, and a large quantity of freight removed. Just what amount was lost could not then be ascertained, but two of the thieves were captured and brought on as far as Salisbury, where they were turned over to officers. The great rapidity of the work and its al most successful consummation, makes it almost certain that the plans had been well laid, and by experienced thieves, as the discovery in time to pre vent serious loss may be said to have been merely accidental. So quiet were their operations that their presence was not noticed except by the conductor of the train, as above noted. With a little more experience this crowd would suc ceed in robbing a freight train at full speed. About Whiskey Licenses. It is understood that a number of ap plications will be made to-day to the board of county (commissioners by re tail dealers in w'hiskey in the city for county license by the board, for the privilege of selling whiskey by retail. When the question of prohibition was before the people as an issue, nobody had to be told where The Observer was to be found, but having made the fight we can see no good reason for con tinuing the contest after the question has been buried by an overwhelming majority of nearly fifteen hundred votes in the county. We are among those who think that the war should be de clared at an end, and that dealers should not only be required, but encouraged to obey the law. While in other counties, and other sections of the State there jmight have been some fine spun theories about ob jections to the prohibition bill submit ted to the people in the recent election in this county, there is no denying the fact that we voted for whiskey pure and simple. Two propositions were sub mitted: One involving prohibition in the Slate and the other applying only to the county. Both were overwhelm ingly buried in the county where we have a large Democratic majority, and the result, it seems to us, would make it incumbent upon the county commis sioners to issue license under such re straints as the law imposes. It is one of the curiosities of the law if we may use the term that the re fusal of the board of commissioners to grant license does not prevent the re tail of whiskey, because licensed by both the city and the United States i i i revenue laws, saies are oemg inaue daily, and without preventing the sale, the county loses considerable levenue which the law imposes, by the action of the commissioners in refusing to grant license. County A if aim. The board of county commissioners continued their session yesterday. Much of the time of the session was taken up in considering the question of taxation of the real estate and bank ing house of the Merchants' and Farm ers' National Bank, and also the city mills property and other real estate be longing to the Traders' National Bank. The tax includes what may have ac crued for two years past, and the ques tion of liability is one of considerable importance. The banks, through coun sel, contended that the shares of nation al bank stock were taxed as personal property, and were valued as other sol vent credits ; that in the valuation or these shares of stock no deduction was made for real estate, and that to tax the shares in the hands of the share holders at the valuation of other sol vent credits, without deducting the value of the real estate, is double taxa tion, the real estate being a part of the capital stock. The question was dis cussed at some length by counsellor both sides, and also among members of the board, after which it was decided to postpone any definite action until to dav. The other business or tne board con sisted mainly m passing upon claims, the more important of which were the following: Rev. W. T. Waller, tor ser vices for January as superintendent of education. $48.00; Coroner Alexander, for inquest on the body of Geo. W. Mil ler. $3.00; the same for similar services in the case of Harvey Phillips, $17.10; R M. White, for provisions furnished the poor house for the month of Janu .iqi .u. The remainder were for small sums, mostly for support of pau Ders. . An order was passed that the effects of John Lockhart, a pauper who died at the poor house, be sold by auction on the 21st inst., and the proceeds, with cash on hand, be placed in the county treasury. The session will be continued to-day, as much important business remains to be transacted. i,nv Lm IRON 8PBIHG3 WATKB AHD in-Thelreat tonic and alterative contains iwiRA ns mucn iron auu iu . . r twice smuui on(r iron mass" known.
