3TThe streets were crowded yester
day with cotton "wagons and the depot'
men were skipping about trying to
make room for it on the platform.
t3TMr. J. H. "Wilson, Jr., who recent
ly lost the picker room of his factory on
the Catawba in Gaston county, is hav

E2FAt the mayor's court yesterday
morning Parson Hearne and his wife,
both colored, were brought up for dis
turbing the calm and peaceful sur
roundings of their home by the rever
berating echoes of their family caresses.
Parson had to shell out $1, while his
better half had to see his one and go
him one and a half better.
UPProfessor Macallister has had a
vei y big run at the opera house in this
city this week. His entertainments are
of the first order and there is no hum
bug about the distribution of his pres
ents. He will appear in Statesville
on next Monday, Tuesday and Wednes
day nights, and in Salisbury the balance
of the week.
63TThe members of the Clyde syndi
cate who passed by here on a special
train last Thursday morning, were ex
pected to return home this morning.
They have-been making a general in
spection of their roads. We hear that
they took in the Greenville and Colum"
bia liailroad in their rounds.
EThe excavation for Col. John
ston's new store houses is now com
pleted and bricklaying will commence
Monday. The lumber for the joists is
something surprising to the people of
this section. It was sawed in Robeson
county and must have come from large
tree?, as each joist is thirty five feet
long, two and a half inches thick and
eleven inches wide.
E3rThe water works stand pipe
which is now rising high above the
court house, is, of course, an object of
interest to visitors and all must go to
take a look at it. Seeing their advantage
a number of firms have had the concern
spattered over with advertisements
in big white letters. The most conspic
uous of all is Sheriff Alexander's card of
invitation to the sovereigns to liqui
date their taxes.
tJPThe Charlotte young people who
went up to Davidson College last Fri
day night, to attend the fete champetre,
or lawn picnic, given by the students
of the college, seem to have had a mer
rier time than is usually alloted to pic-
nicers. They returnea on the train the
same night, somewhat tired and deci
dedly more quiet than when they start
ed, but all insisting that they had never
had a more enjoyable time in their lives.

THE COMING CELEBRATION.

Oecaaima4 a Glimpse of fief
fb Tkings Thai Hay e Cxpecte.
Interest in the aprok2ieglebrfe
lion of the SOU Is growing ECTeIlTely
each day, and the citizens iia wtsriing
up preparations with a Tim and enthu
siasm that they have been seldom
known to show. The committees are
doing everything that could possibly be
expected of them; busy as bees and en
ergetic as beavers, they set themselves
to the work in earnest and hare suc
ceeded in attracting great Interest to
the celebration from abroad. They axe
highly elated at the bright prospect for
a great day and art beginning to think
that the celebration this year will come
up to, if not surpass the greaielebra
tion of 1875, which has heretofore been
considered the greatest day Charlotte
ever saw. . ; 7
The running of special trains will
secure a greater crowd than was an
ticipated a day or two ago, and the
hotels and boarding houses are arrang
ing to entertain as many as they can
crowd in, while several houses have
been rented and are being fitted up to
receive the visitors. Notwithstanding
the great crowd there will be no lack
of accommodations and no one need
hold back onthis account.
The people of the South have long
wanted an opportunity to see the states
man Bayard and to hear him speak and
the news that comes in from all the
surrounding country is to the effect
that they are not going to let this op
portunity slip. Senator Bayard, by the
way, has been tendered a special train
over the Virginia Midland and Rich
mond and Danville railroads, in which
to make his journey to Charlotte.
Along with Senator Bayard will come
a large delegation of Congressmen, in
cluding the North and South Carolina
Representatives.
The military and fire companies will
make a fine display. The firemen's
contest will be participated in by six
companies- this number having already
accepted the challenge of the Charlotte
firemen and there may Vet be other
companies to enter. All the returns
are not yet in. The company that wins
will gain something besides honor.
Messrs. E. D. Latta & Bro. have offered
as a prize to the winning company a
solid silver trumpet, valued at $200.
The best drilled military company
will receive a prize of $100 in cash.
Major John G. Young has received a
letter from Gen. M. P. Taylor, of Wil
mington, saying that he and his staff
will attend the celebration.
The merchants are making ready to
decorate their places of business, and
nearly all the private residences in the
city will be gay with banting and em
blems befitting the day.
A joint meeting of all the commit
tees will be held on Monday night to
compare notes and take further steps
in preparation for the celebration. The
reception committee and committee of
arrangements will bear in mind their
appointment to meet the executive
committee in the rooms of the Cham
ber of Commerce, at 8 o'clock on that
night.
We print this note of warning from
the Statesville Landmark to the Cen
tral Hotel, and it will apply all the same
to the other hotels of the city, for what
the Landmark says of Statesville may
be said of every other town in this sec
tion of North Carolina: "Mr. Eccles
and George Bryan, of the Central
Hotel, Charlotte, are hereby notified to
have a couple or three extra chickens
killed and several French names print
ed on the bill of fare for the 20th.
Pretty much all of us up this way are
going down that day, if we are spared,
and Statesville will hang up its hat at
the Central."

Lecture on the Confederate Soldier.
Rev. Dr. Jones, a distinguished di
vine, and who has gained considerable
prominence in the Southern States
lately, through his lecture on "The
Boys in Gray, or the Confederate Sol
dier as I knew him, from Harper's
Ferry in 1861 to Appomattox . Court
House, in 1866," is shortly to gff e our
people a chance to hear the lecture.
He will deliver the lecture in the Char
lotte opera house, on Tuesday, May 16.
This distinguished lecturer was chap
lain of the 13th Virginia Regiment
during the war, and certainly must be
thoroughly acquainted with his subject.
The lecture is to be given for the benefit
of the Southern Historical Society and
the Home and Hospital of this city,
both objects that commend themselves
to the favorable consideration of theJ
whole community. We hope tha the
welcome given to the lecturer will be a
warm one, and that the opera house
will be well filled.
Extensive Tillering of Oats.
Much has been said in these columns
recently about the extensive and appa
rently prolific crop of small grain which
is now about being matured in this
county, but the record would not be
complete did we not allude to the ex
tensive tillering of the oat crop this sea
son. This was forcibly brought to our
attention yesterday by Mr. S. W. Ross,
ofPineville township, who exhibited
two specimen bnnehes. They were
each originated from a single grain, and
one had tillered out into 100 well grown
stalks and the other 92. A head plucked
at random from the largest bunch
showed 61 perfectly developed oat
seeds, which showed a product of 6,100
from the single seed.

The Train Robbers Tried.
Deputy Sheriff Orr went over to Cone
cord last Friday and brought back the
two train robbers who have been con
fined in the jail at that place since
Bit; Time at Dallas Court.
The lawyers had their hands full of
briefs at Dallas court, which has been
in session all week and closed yester
day. During the past' few months rob
beriesjuad thefts have been carried on
in Gaston by the wholesale. The dep
redations of thieves became so bold
and numerous that the people sent to
South Carolina and had a detective to
come up and get to work at ferreting
out the rascals. He spent several weeks
around Gastonia, and as a result of his
work the court found itself deluged
with criminal cases when it opened last
Monday. The civil docket was set aside
and lawyers and judge settled down to
business on the criminal cases. It was
about as lively a court as has ever been
seen in Dallas and resulted in the nom
ination of a good sized gang of candi.
dates for the striped suit.

Obituary.
Rev, 'Isaiah H. Shipman, of LtSbon
New Hampshire, who spent the past
winter in Charlotte, went' home, it
seems, only to die. During his resi
dence here he made quite a number of
friends who, with The Observer, will
regret to hear of his demise. He died
in Lisbon, N. H., Tuesday 24th of April,
and the fact is thus referred to in the
Boston Journal of April 28th, ult:
Elder Shipman was born in West
minster, Vt., October 15, 1810. In 1845
he became pastor of the Advent Church
at Sugar Hill.N.H. In 1850 he was
called to Worcester Mass., but bv rea
son of ill health, was obliged to return f
to Sugar Hill the following year. He
remained at Sugar Hill continuously
until 1867, when ne removed to Water
bury, Vt His health again failing him
in 1869 he gave up his church at Water
bury and went South, stopping in Cul
pepper, Va. Returning to New Hamp
shire t he following year, greatly bene
fitted, he settled in Lisbon, where, by
force of his great energy, and superior
executive ability, he raised the funds
and erected the inilding known as
"Messiah's Church." Finding his health
again giving way, however, in Novem
ber last accompanied by two of his
daughters, he went to Charlotte, N. C.
Thistime he found no relief, but grad
ually failed until his death. He reach
ed home only about three weeks ago,
making) the journey from Washington,
600 miles, in 27 hours. Although he
was a man of decided convictions and
great independence of thought and ac
tion,, he was universally beloved, and
no man in the community where he
lived had as many friends and as few
enemies. He leaves a widow, two
sons and four daughters.

who was too young to have any reali

were captured in two parties. Am
