J j ' i i- - THE EAGLE. Charlotte, N. CM May 13, 1873. . - ?;Edutios is an old subject, but is always onef live interest to the people. . Oar school system has been eatirelylnadequate-.to our necessities . since the war. It has been so main ly because wo" did not have money to support schools properly. -. -YeCuro need schools and must have them, and bow to use best the means and resources we have is the great question. Taxation alone is not euf ficient, tfor the business of the country is so heavily; taxed lor all general purposes, that but a small traction more can with justice be exacted. We have no incoino from public lands and investments as some States have. Bat wo can economise, act in concert and give constant effort and atten tion to tho schools around us. We can keep them up a few months of tho year, and we should provide them with evj?ry advantage for eifation7 duviii'-thal short lime.

Let a teacher bo hired for one neighbor hood, in a township where there is not enough money for regular school and teach in rotation, say three months in each neighborhood in the township for a year.- Tho whole township could join together and pay, and have school good part of the year too. Tuition would come cheap er in that way, and larger scholars could attend tho school at two or more of the places, for tho distance would not be too much for them, and three months of regular school would be better for smaller children, pet teacherainUhe- . scattered settlements then take a-cireuit after the manner ofour:eth:rdisV ministry.

' Correspondence of The Eagle- Danville, Va., May 10, 1875. Our people are happy now. . We could not be much happier. Cause- thereof : The Gas,,Works were com pleted last week. ; On Wednesday ' last the gas was turned on and our streets, ) nearly all the stores aud many private resideuCes were illuminated. So far as the streets are'-coneerned, gas'is certainly a great lmprovBttT VPTi IeW C,1 ricKeiy IrogeiTefc with vfetreb hav -:d long struggled.' am inclined to think some of the Belles whose fathers have had lamps placed near their front gates do -not. join with us as heartily as they ought in our rejoicings over the completion of the (ias Works. ' Any courting young" mau can tell wLy. ., Ai.other cause of our present) hap piuess is this : John E. Owens, the great comedian, condescended to;stop over and give us one entertainment. lie played Solon Shingle and in Suinuierfield Hall last Friday night to the largest audience that ever greet ed an actor in Danvi4le. 1 The price 'for reserved . scats-was $125 (a large price for Danville) yet every seat was sold early in the week. Some of our' enterprising specula tors endeavored to " piu-hook" Ow eus Seeing the tremendous sale of tickets, made by the agent here they telegraphed to the great comedian proposing to buy out his performance, Mit"So!on Shingle" was not greeu and very properly d.ecliued to trade. Capt. Sj E. Allen, General Ticket Agent of 1, he Piedmont Railway, has issued his circular announcing a great reduction of fare .to persons wishing to attend be Charlotte Centennial. The fare J'rom Danville to Charlotte and return is only 84.25. great many will avail themselves of this. op- farther, ird only tl;so: The Mtoklexbuko Censeunial as it progresses is clicilirg unbounded remarks, throughout tho country. The records of our glorious aucestors aro enoujrh to command tho highebt economuims of praisi, and thtii valorous actions, in tho timef, when political prejudice, and parly trickery wero unknown are to be 'h&udct down from generation to generation as a memento :of tho days that "tried men's souls." The Petersburg Index and Appeal sends forth the following able editorial on thoDeclaration. "Wo venture the prediction that the claim of .North Carolina to havo struck the first blow of the war and " to have originally asserted the right of tho colonies to no tree and self governing, will not agam- bo - called into question by the cavillers and critics. The ccntenmartscelebration baa served the good purpose of open ing np tho era for historical investi gatiou, nnd of exciting a fresh spirit of inquiry as to Us men and measures. The research triumphantly establishes - the full claim of .North Carolina 111 the premises as we cheerfully testify, having been at one time disposed to follow the rather interested testimony of our own Thomas Jefferson, and to entertain doubt of tho' authenticity of the Alexauder Convention and rcs- Dlutious." ' t This able, and eloquent vindication c ta 1 t : u t' f' and the sentiments in" it aro being reechoed throughout tho union. The SpriDgfield Republican ono of the leading Journals of tho New England States in closing an article on tho Celebration says ; "Tho North Carolinians havo a good record in the Revolution to re call, and wo hope they will havo . a first class celebration." Tho passenger fare on the N C R R has changed.

In reply to the uow very frequent inquiry, " Are you goSug to the Charlotte Centennial ?" slic said she guessed not, as she had in tended Iivh or six centennials " and they yilways was the most borinest things." The spelling fever has broken out in Danville very bad. Nearly all the young people and a large majority of the old heads are eeriou iiy affected with it. A grand spelling match un der the auspices of the Young Xiadies' Memorial Association is announced to tome off at Summerfiekl Hall next ,Tuuisday, at which time .the cham pion speliists will have au opportunity of displaying their abilities.

The tobacco market for the past week has been very active and prices generally much -better owing to large new Western orders recently leceived by our leaf dealers.

POX2TXCAJU ' 4 . The Liberal Republicans of Pennsylvania have informally determined ; to bold a Htate Oust ention ' at Williamsport, in August, to .'.insider the propriety of nominating can didatea for Governor and State Treasurdr. V . In view of this - fact it may not be oat of lace inasmuch as the Liberal Republican organization has its head ' and front in this city to inform you as to its strength and purposes. ' Theldbercl Republicans of this State are those gentlemen , who. went to Cincinnatti three years ago this May. Tbey numbered forty-seven men in all ; while at the Cincin nati Convention, which nominated Mr. Greel ey, they met and appointed Col. Aleck Mo Clare, chairman ot the State Committee, and Hon. Wm. H. Ruddiman, member of the National Committer Col. Thos: J. Worrell was made chairman, of the Committee ot this city. Worrell, with his two Secretaries and Treasurer, and all his Executive Committee have returned to the Republican fold, and are in full fellowship with it, now that it is in tensely anti-Grant, Raddiman has been stamping it daring the past two years; for the Republicans, and two of McClnre's Own Sec retaries are pronounced Republicans, :hUj3 leaving only "Aleck" and Ranch, of Lancas ter, the Liberal Republican party of Pennsylvania,- . The object of the Wllliamsport Convention is to forestall tho nomination of what Mc Clure terms "a Bourbon Democrat" for Gov ernor, by the Liberals nominating ei ther Edgar Co wan' or Andrew G. Gurtin. Affthe delegates to that Convention will attend upon tliw invitation of Col. McClure,. or Eli Sitter, V5V ForIa Eagle.

Fernando Wood. To-day being a good day for a country walk, I went over to the residence' of rernando Wood, ex-Mayor of New York, and one of three or four notable candi dates for the Speakership of the For ty-fourth Congress. Wood is one of the very euccessful politicians of the periou. "J.3 ne worm a minion t x asked of Robert V. Koosevelt. . "Oh I )'s worthmillions," was the answer. A piece, of ground for which he has declined $950,000 ten acres in ex tent stretches between the great Bioomingdale boulevard and the Hud son river, aud tbere, in an exquisite cottage of a sort of chalet character ustic, Gothic, perhaps which mean ders in several wings and many gables over a rollicg lawn of shaveu grass, the old Mayor lives with his third wife j tied eleven living children. 1 t;on 'or. Free transportation to and from Williams port, nnd free boarding for a week at Herdr-'s hotel, wou'd attract a crowd at the Conven tion, respectable at least in numbers. HOW we obow. Another evidence of the prosperous times that are coming with the bursting of the buds in May, is found in the application, duiing April for permits to erect 1102 houses, stores, churches, &c, in this city. During April, 1874, there were but 69G permits issued. Of the pennies issued for 1875, there were 400 for two story houses, 435 for three story, G four story, 42 stores and dwellings,; 15 stores, tho balance mude np of churches, fuctories, warehouses, schoolhouses, fec. -These building operations for April, of themselves, would form a pretty respectable sized town. a JAY COOKB, . The handsome residence of Jay Cooke, or rather the granite monument of his creditors folly, is to be sold at public auction on the 25th of i this month. The property cost more than 41,000,000 in money, to say nothing of the heart-aches of those who lost their all through the ignoranco of Jay .Cooke as a financier. DEATHS. During the first week of May, 374 persons passed from this city to the hereafter. Of this number, 96 died from diseases affecting the lungs, 32 01 scarlet, lever, 15 of old- age 4 of paralysis, and 7 of apoplexy. Thirty of tne number were between 70 and 80 years 01 age, and 15 between 80 and 100, A number of attempts have recently been made to corrupt petit and grand juries; now serving here. So persistent and bold I have these attempts become, that in two instances during the week the attention of the court was called to the matter. The court sent for the district attorney, placed the matter in his hands and hoped the guilty parties would be brought to punishment. The examination developed the fact that two men did attempt to. corrupt the jury, both of whom have been placed under $2,000 ban each tor their at tempts at "embracery. I JOURNAIISTIC; About the middle of April there was issued in this city, by John H. Bently & Co., a 16 page monthly journal, called the Fubhsh&r 1 Review." (Its object is to supply bock men with a key to the literary productions of the month, and of forthcoming works. It is one of the most useful publications it has . been mv pleasure to witnees in a long time! The depaitment devoted! to music is an exceeding lv attractive as well as novel feature in this new journalistic venture. j THE CENTESSIAB. The Hon. John Bright, the great free trad er of England recently told his countrymen to stay away from the American Centennial Exhibition, because of the, high tariff policy ot our government, lae day following the cable despatch announcing this action of Mr, Bright, came a request from the Commission of Great Britain to our Exhibition, asking for just double tho space allotted to that coun-- try During the week an autograph letter was received at the (jentenuial rooms, from Gri biildi, which reads thus : Translation.. My Dear Sir : I will certainly make every possible effort to have my country participate in tne mapmncont celebration which is to be held in Philadelphia. I deeply 1 regret that shall not be able to come myself Truly, G. Gabibaijji. 1 Rome, April 12, 1875.

Daring the week the late residence of the dead Forrest was offered af public sale. The property is located a mile and a half above the public building on Broad street, and about the same in depth, lhe sum of $101000 was bid for it. but as the executors hold 'the property at $110,000, the auctioneer with drew it. boys THE STATE TBEASUBEB. Thrt Republican party of this city has se lected its i delegates to the btate , Convention, which meets this month at .Lancaster. The delegation is solid for Gov. Hartranft, but aro all at sea in a regard to their candidate for Treasurer. This much I will say, that the ticket shall not be weakened by ithe nom ination of an objectionable candidate, hence the man whose reputation, like the spouse of the dead Caesar, is beyond suspicion, can- hope to obtain the support of "our .boys." I trust to be able to inform von next week on on whom their choice has fallen. J. W. F. The Cincinnati Enquirer attempted to interview Vico President Wilson, while in that city, with the following result: "Mr. Wilson refused to talk on the third term policy for personal and political reasons. He would say, however, that the great battle field of the next national campaign would be in Ohio It was here that the battle would be lost or won to the .Repub lican party.! recognized This fact was, be said, by the party loaders- at Washiugton, and great efforts would be made on both sides to carry the election of Ohio between this timo aud jXoveniber of oexb year." It would not occur tati American of the present day, wbeA-ookinj fryer Harper Bazaar, GodeyV ady's Booki or any publication 00 Jb 3tame, that' within the last one Tujdred years such a mighty; revolutif alio the Cos tume de liiguer bus t&hrji place.- It would not .ever occur-V au average resideut in the United 1 Siaten tha their great-great-gratidfKreir had worn cocked hats, buckled 1 slippers and red breeches, not omitting tfte luxury of a blue swallow tail aiidJjXrow of brass buttons. That sucb fS-tho case is uo u utrnth and a little investigation will convince one of tha fdc . ; In all the American .costumes, how ever, there was always a . republican sentiment evinced, that anything in theway of Euglish royalty was ridi culed out of existence. For example, i iu New York some 70fears ago, on a public day of some kjnd, a carriage and six horses were jdriven around the city, containing! some of the wealthy representatives of the me tropolis, and of course treated quite a sensation and ultimately caused the innovation "to be in jltyle." But as public seutRmr rhigu agaiust Siicn lBoMlcKt-,,,, -entT4c)dv of 16 youug men formed ( a society, aud hiring a; cart, and 16 horses pa raded around the city, and completely obliterated the uractice of a carriuge and six, and handed down to posteri ty the seryices rendered on (that oc casion. Of course such customs were transitory, but the personal diess was more on a level. , Before tbe .Revolution, even wore wigs and sometimes sported the luxury of a coeked ha. Gentlemen of wealth wore red coats, and shoes with buckles. Gentlemen never wori strings in their shoes, and never in dulged in boots without they were military officers. In lieu of our present overcoats round coats were used and prosented more the jappe,arance of an elongated barrel, made stiff by buckram, which were made to fall to the knees. Ball dresses fW .gentlemen were of ten made of silk both pants and coat, aud) with an embroidered vest, but sometimes instead of silk, white satin breeches were used. Gentlemen wags, in comon Saxon for our forefathers though reputed to be, econonomical, we by good au thority can assert were extravagant--were accustomed to sit at a barber shop for hours at a time to have their hair manipulated into curls, crinkets etc., etc., and even suffered a great many ug!y piills from tho irate barber on " a tough head," or " au ugly wig." Gentlemen who were groomsmen were accustomed logo to church three weeks in succession after a marriage, and to be attired in a different suit each day. WTe heard of a rich old fop a groomsman, who appeared the tirst week in white broadcloth, the second in blue angojd, and the third in peach blossom cToth ami pearl but tons... ' ; Ladies were still ijnore pretentions and used hoop skirts aud crape cush ions in wonderful (abundance. The hoops were of great size, and we once heard of a sailor meeting two ladies in a street who occupied" the whole pavement that ho couid uot pass, so h'e leaped through tbe - aperture between the two ladies and went bis.way. Ladies wore peculiar shoes sharp toed and baving a veiy small but high heel. Sometimes they , sported silver buckles', and we iive heard of t(old set with precioiitjtdtiy on tijeir shoes. Both noses were siik stockings, cue too stockings bti;:g a late innovation. There were' no hats or bonuets worn, by; ladies. Sotueliines they wore a; head dress called a " Calash." It. was fastened ou tbe head like 'a' 'modern botinet, aud was pyramidal, aud it be ing so arranged ibati; could bej 'raised as a protection from the sun by pulling it over the 'forehead ; there being no parasols in those days. j : ' Umbredas were never to be seen, and a man who brought onp from England was considered a great fop because he crrried it, and was criti cised in several papers because, of his " pretended style." I Ladies dresses were never made sbort, and were rarely without the in- 1 ? variable corset :some dresses were three or three and a half feet in length of the trail. fometimes the young maidens were dressed the day before an appearauce at a ball, aud were provided with chairs to sleep ou, in order to retain their hair iu a fit condition to present themselves. As to the invitation of guests, it was never prsper to invite one to tea, din ner or. breakfast, but to propose to visit yourself. In fashionable circles tea was taken in the summer time at about 6 o'clock, in winter 4 o'clock, but never after candle light. Dinner was never served iater than 2, and most generally at 12. irreseuts,' were almost made m a in a, quiet wav. Auvthmc ostenla- tious about a present was resented. i . . Distressing Suicide in Blades. A special dispatch to the Journal, from Abbottsburg, conveys the sad intelligence jthat, Col Duncan Kelley, of Bladen cbunty, committed suicide yesterday by ; shooting himself iu the head. ' No cause is assighed for the rash act. Col, Kelley was a promi nent citizen of Biaden before the war, and daring the war was a captain in the Confederate service. He was a member of the Constitutional Con vention of 1865, and has since filled several positions of prominence and trust. He was a brother of tbe late Neill Kelley, of Bladen. Wit, Journal 8th inst.
