The Wilmington Star says a "well known Baltimore gentleman writes us that he happens to know that Senator Vance has received many hundreds of letters from all parts of the country north, west, south-west, and south, ap proving heartily his recent great speech on the tariff, and pronouncing it the best speech ever made on the subject." All of which means that the effort of our townsman is regarded by the public as above the average Senatorial speeches. An Unprecedented Increase Since the first number of "At Home and Abroad" wa3 published in Char lotte, in December, the circulation of thjs excellent magazine has increased about nine hundred copies, a fact which must be exceedingly gratifying to the editors, as well as to all who feel the necessity fur a Southern literature of superior merit, which is Southern in fact as well as in name. "At Home and Abroad" has perhaps been the most successful enterprise of its kind that has been undertaken in the South in the past twenty years, and its prospects for the future are bright indeed. Much care, expense and labor is expended on the work, and it is gratifying that the efforts put forth are meeting with such signal success. The very fact that its prosperity is constantly increasing is a strong testimonial as to the ability with which it is conducted. The Late Dr. Brantly. In Tuesday's Obsekvek appeared a brief announcement of the death of Rev. W. T. Brantly, of Baltimore. As ihe deceased was well-known through out the country, and especially in this city, where he had relatives, we give the following particulars of the sad event: Dr. Brantly preached, as usual gun- day night, his sermon being one of a series upon the life of Paul. After re turning to his home, No. 251 North Eutaw street. Dr. Brantly retired, giv ing no indication of feeling indisposed, but shortly after midnight he arose from bed and went up stairs into his study ; returned to his bed-chamber, re mained a short time and again went back to his study. Mrs. Brantly, aroused by the movements of her hus- hand. met hint as he was descending the stairs the second lime, and, alarmed at his apparent illness, called their son. Mr W. Theo Brantly, who at once sum moned Dr. P. C. Williams, the family physician, living near by. In'the mean time Dr. Brantly complained of pain in ihe reeion of the heart, resumed nis bed. and expired in a few minutes, be fore the arrival of Dr. Williams. Death is said to have resulted from aDgina pectoris. Pastors of the various Bap tist churches in the city and ministers of other denominations called at the residence Monday. The funeral took place at one o'clock: yesterday afternoon from the Seventh Baptist church to Greenmount Ceme tery. Dr. Cuthbert, assisted by Baptist ministers of the city, officiated, unicea States. Senator Joseph E. Brown, of Georgia, who is a member of the Bap tist church in Atlanta, Ga of which Dr. Brantly was a former pastor, was also present. . . 0 Atameetinsr of members of the Sev enth. Baptist church Monday night a preamble and resolutions were adopted referring in fitting terms to the sudden ness of the summons wmcn iook Air. Brantly from his pulpit to his place in Heaven.

Report of the Committee Appointed to , Tisit and famine the Jail apd Poor .-House ; ' . ' v.;..-. . V.,, - The board of county commissioners concladed their monthly session yester day and adjourned after the transac tion of a considerable amount of busi ness, the greater portion being of an unimportant character. The following official opinion was ex pressed by the board and spread upon the minutes : ,- Whereas, The board are of the opinion that the office of county super intendent of health is a salaried office, It is therefore ordered by the board that the compensation allowed him for services rendered shall not exceed the amount paid 4n 1878. . The committee appointed at the last meeting of the board to visit the jail and the poor house for the purpose of ascertaining and reporting what im provements were needed at these insti tutions, submitted the following re port: To the Honorable, the Board of County Commissioners : The undersigned, a committee ap pointed by your board to examine the county poor house buildings, and the county jail under your order made at February session 18S2, beg leave to re port as follows: "Your committee first examined the log building heretofore used for the safe keeping of the lunatics, and found it totally insufficient for such purpose, as there has been no arrangement made whereby the inmates could have access to fire, and severe suffering could only be guarded against by considerable bed ding, blankets, &c. At times this was totally insufficient for the reason that the unfortunate lunatic would not re main covered during the night, or any considerable part thereof however vig ilant and watchful the superintendent might be. ' We therefore recommend that this building:be discontinued for the purpose heretofore used, and that it be convert ed into a place for the occupation of that class of paupers requiring less watehing; that this building may be comfortable, a eood. substantial brick chimney is necessary, which will cost about thirty dollars; two windows, wnicn win cost about ten dollars. Ou examination of the brick house we found the roof in a decaying condi tion, some parts of it bo far gone that it is in a leaky condition, and much of the sneetinac and inner part of the house liable to be materially afEected thereby, if such i3 not already the case, and are of the opinion that economy and pro per care or tne building requires an en tire new roof. Such shingles as are not worthless of the old roof can be used oh the out-buildings on the prop erty, and put on by the superintendent as occasion may require. A new floor, new doors, casings, &c, new shutters, and some glass are required for the win dows in this building. On examination of the log house oc cupied by colored paupers, we find that by reason of shrinkage the floors are too open and should be closed up. Some trifling repairs are necessary for the chimneys; the present windows need repairs, and a necessity for at least three more new windows, sash and shutters, to make this building comfortable. In consequence of the increase of pauperismin our county, your commit tee are of opinion that as an absolute necessity lurther provisions in the way of quarters should be provided for the colored race, and we would recommend that some time during the present summer or fall, at least before the next winter months, you cause to be erected near the present quarters of the colored race, a log house 20 by 40 feet, with a good stack chimney, so as to afford sumcient warmth for the inmates, Your committee are informed that ma terial for the building can be obtained near by on reasonable terms, and the entire structure would not cost the county more than , and would add very materially to the comfort and health of the inmates. In view of the disappointment which has so long 6xisted, and continues to exist, to-wit, the failure of the State to provide (as" all of us hoped it would) for that most unfortunate class of our peo ple, to-wit, the indigent lunatics, we specially recommend that the board of commissioners take the matter in hand and commence at once to provide a suitable building for curing and proper- y providing for the safety and comfort as far as may be for this class. We are of opinion this can be done without any very great outlay, and common humanity, as well as duty, appeals to you for prompt action. A good, sub stantial framed house, 26 by 83 feet, ceiled throughout, with two doors, hall way through the centre, ten feet in width, with eight apartments, 6 by 7 feet, made of 2 by 3 scantling, set per pendicular, running from floor to ceil ing with an aperture of about 2 inches between each scantling and a small window to each apartment, and warm ed by a coal stove in the centre of hall way, which we think will give sufficient room, warmth, security and comfort to tbe inmates. Your committee bee leave to call your attention to the suggestion of the superintendent of health relating to syphilitic persons now in the poor house or that may hereafter be admit ted, and in this connection are of opin ion that the comfort and health of the inmates would materially and properly be guarded, and in many instances im proved by classifying and assigning quarters under the direction of that officer. Persons having contagious or infectious diseases should not be allow ed to occupy the quarters of those who are free from them. Your committee gave the county jau such examination as to satisfy them that the Nicholson pavement, as well as. the plank on which it is laid, is m a state of decay, infact some of it entirely so, and would recommend mat it ue ta&eu up and the space between the cells and the outer walls be laid with granite slabs.. The Nicholson pavement within the cells should be removedandthe cells provided with a good substantial pitch-pine-plank floor, which will cost not exceeding $12 per cell. - Your committee would iurtner recommend that you cause four venti lations to be placed in the outer walls Of the Duilding, two on tne otner siae so arranged that the two in the wall next to the well (or east side) will be lower than those on the west side; by so do ing your committee are of opinion mat the fresh, pure air entering on the west sde of the building will force there. from through the ease openings tne foul and impure air whiehhas hereto fore been so detrimental to the health of the inmates. With the carrying out f the foregoing, suggestions and recommendations your committee are of opinion that all local cansts of imhealthfniness win do re moved. - - v ; .' ; , gofar as they have been awe w de termine tiie oomfort and health of the inmates of the Jail and poor house is KreaUyimproved,etai ; r,-, , lies peculiar wiuuunwu, JOSIAH ASBTJRY, H.

That Charlotte's reputation fof pretty girls will be fully maintained itt the large" number of misses that are about entering womanhood. That few cities of its size can boast of the same amount of pulpit ability that Charlotte is possessed of, That a publio music hall is needed in the city, where the musically in' clined could meet and spend a social evening once or twice a week. That eggs are selling at 15 cents a dozen. That Charlotte has fewer white loafers than any city in the country of its size. That a larger cotton crop will be planted in this county this year than ever before. That the mortality in Charlotte is very small as compared with other cities of the same size. That "constable No. 1" has bought a pistol,, and says hereafter he will cer tainly shoot before surrendering to the enemy. That the Madison Square company gives a fine presentation of Hazel Kirke." Y esterday's Court. The Superior court yesterday trans acted the following business: J. H. Carmer vs. North Carolina Railroad Company, compromised judg ment against defendant for $50, each party to pay their own costs. John Morris vs. P. A. Hodges, admin istrator appeal j udgment affirmed. McD. Arledge vs. Alexander John ston, verdict for plaintiff. The grand jury failed to find a true bill against Sam Crawford, a little ne gro about as long as a man's arm , and said to be nine years old, who will be remembered as having been arrested and imprisoned for shooting and killing one Harvey Phillips, also a small boy. Crawford was' discharged with a nice little lecture from his honor, which could be repeated with propriety to all small boys who have big ambitions to handle guns. The shooting by which the Phillips boy lost a portion of his head and his life at the same time was accidental. John Erwin, or Bogus, the negro boy arrested on suspicion of being the mur derer of Walter Pemberton, was also discharged, no bill having been found against him. The little negro Pember ton.it will be remembered, wasliorribly murdered last Summer near the Air Line depot, in broad day light, for the purpose, it is supposed, of securing $1.50 which he had collected for his mother. A true bill was, however, found against Nathan Williams for the killing of the Pemberton boy. Nathan is nine years old, and when brought forward the court found it necessary to adjust its spectacles several times before being able to locate him. He is per haps the smallest chap that has ever been required to answer to a charge of murder in the State. It is not known what course the solicitor will pursue in this case, as that gentleman has been in Concord since the latter part of last week, but is expected to return to finn h up some criminal business still remain ing on the docket. The grand jury yesterday submitted a report and was discharged. - Sew QfLmxtlsztazuts. SALESMEN WANTED.
