This church is now without a pastor or - stated supply. On invitation the Rev. J. Rumple, pastor of lat Presbyterian Church", Salisbury, preached there Sunday afternoon last, fro a very attentive congregation. He also made an appointment for preaching n next Sabbath (Feb. 24th,) at 2 o'clock, p. m., at which time the officers of the church were invited to attend for the pur pose of making arrangements for a tem porary supply of pastoral services. Franklin is one of the oldest churches in the county, and the congregation com prises an intelligent and prosperous com munity. They have recently built a very neat new church, and cannot will afford to be without regular pastoral services very long. j . o - ' CHURCH ITEM. The first Church Conference of the M. E. Church South of Salisbury, met in the Church at 7 o'clock p. m., Feb. 17 1878, and was opened with religious services conducted hj Rev. J. J. Ren n, the pastor. J. W. Mauney was elected Secretary. After a few appropriate remarks from the Pastor j the Conference proceeded to the consideration of the question of rais ing funds for the support of the misistry for the current year. By request, Rev. Mr. Renn explained the system and workings of the "assess ment" plan ; and after some deliberation the Conference determined to adopt this plan for the present year and elected a committee of n ine to make the assessments and report to a subsequence meeting when the Church will have the privilege of accepting or rejecting the report, or of making any changes that may be deemed best, or of changing the plan and taking the "subscription" or any other that may be thought best to secure the requisite amount. The conference then adjourned to meet at t he call of the Pastor. Geo. Pbthel, of the Western part of this county, aged 21 or 22 years, was lodged in the jail of Rowan last Friday, on the charge of poisonings his wife ; and causing ber death. The Coroner, Mr. B. F. Fraley, with a jury of inquest, spent two days last week, in hunting up and examining testimony on the case, and finally rendered a verdict implicating the prisoner. It is in evidence that the pris oner tried at several places in the neigh boiltood to obtain strychnine to kill dogs, it is said, but failing went to Concord, and brought thence a small bottle of medi cine of which his'wife took a dose (while he was absent) which, it is believed, caused her death, as she died in an agony of pain.aud spasms, a few minutes after taking it. A postmortem examination was made of the body, and the stomach was taken out for further examination. It will be sent to some chemist to analyze its contents for the purpose of detecting the poison if it contains any. It may indeed be a case of poisoning, and it may have been premeditated and planned by the husband; but as the facts have reached us, the proofs are not clear, nor" are they so well connected as to make Pothers a desperate case. The woman was subject to fits or spasms, which came upon her frequently and suddenly. The analysis of the stomach will show whether she died of poison, or of one of those accustomed fits. The case caused much excitement in fthe neighborhood where it occured, and tlie popular feeling was strong against Pethel, whose character, it seems, afford ed him little or no protection against sus picion. - : o- Trifles. Pebbles, it is said, and straws, change tbo current of streams. So also do trifles influence human actions. To illustrate:, a little girl goes into a store to exchange a spool of No. 40 thread for a No. 60, and the clerk refused, saying we don't exchange spools in this store." "Very well," was the quick reply, "I will not trouble you. again;" and true to her word twelve months afterwards remem bers the incident and defends her resolu tion by saying "as if a spool, from one store was not as good as one from an other, and wouldn't sell as well." A very trifle, truly, like the beginnings of many things which end in mighty re sults. It is needless to say it is unreasonable. You may denounce it by any name you please; but it does not change the fact. The particular incident producing a good or bad feeling may be lost, but its im pression lives through years, yielding its natural fruit with unerring certainty. - Again : A gentleman met a boy at the Post Office, whose general "make up" ar rested hit attention. He looked at him with a scrutinizing eye, and then remark ed "young man, I know nothing about you, bat I think if you will take care of yourself and try for it, you will mak: a useful and influential man, some day." Doubtless that gentleman soon forgot the words thus spoken, but that youth will never forget them. They quicken his energies and arouse in him high pur poses, and have already been fruitful of much good and will continue to bear, good fruit, to what extent affecting others no one can ever know. - -a , CA -i PopttlariNev Books, CiJ J The most readable, books we have seen lately is the sparkling new series Of sketches from every-day life, Just issued by'Lsx ttmerHasn, publishers, Boston. They are out ot the ordinary coarse ot light llteratureJby the accuracy and brilliancy cf .charac ter deUnlatlons, and by the simplicity and freshness of the St&e. f That HtrAKov Mine, and "That Win of MiNt," are rare gems of free and easy sketching. Of the former the author says Char-' lie, (the- husband), " is not by any means remarka ble, but he has the fewest faults, the manliest vir tues, and the least tact of any man I ever saw, knew or heard of." The Ufe-story which follo-ws abounds with incidents beautifully Illustrating the character thus drawn, highly interesting and instructive as well as hugely amusing The sale of 135,000 copies of this book in less than a month attests its merits. That Wif o Mbj" is in an points equal, claimed by some to be better, than its predecessor, and is also selling rapidly. Two other books of the same series are also out Jcst his Lcca,'' and " His Our Master." In the first ot these we have the sayings and doings of real flesh and blood bora. The hero ot the story, an or phan, worka his way successfully through many trials, hardships, disappointments and dangers to wealth and happiness. "In the second, Jacob Foe tcxx, the hero of the book, is a poor boy who, on the death of an aunt, becomes the happy possessor of a cow, an easy chair, a dye-tub, a molasses-jug, vinegar-cask, a rag-bag, &c, &; and we are told what he did with them, and how through the painfully acquired habit of self-control, patience and perse verance he at length.became M His owir Master.? These four books ot the series are sold at 50 cents each, in paper ; or $1 each In cloth, and may be had at Plyler3 book store, or from the publisher direct. COXXnaCATED. The numerous friends of Joseph A. Hawkins, Esq., wm learn, with deep regret,, of the death of that highly esteemed and good man. at his residence in this county, on the 17th inst. The disease of which he died was fcterode pneumonia, of nine days dura ration, and unusually severe. Mr. Hawkins was in his 60th year, at the time of his death. The commu nity in which he lived, and labored, as a Teacher In thelay and Sabbath School, as a farmer and civil magistrate; the church Methodist Episcopal of which he was a prominent, efficient and exemplary member, and the County and State, under whose authority he held many useful and honorable posi tions, have all to mourn the loss ot one, who was faithful and true in all the relations of private and public life. His loss seems Irreparable to the com munity In which he lived. This was mournfully at tested by the unusually large and tearful assem blage of both white and colored citizens, and espe cially of children, which attended the solemn ser vices, at his funeral. A good and useful man in deed, one of the excellent of the earth has passed away. May the turf lie lightly upon his bosom, and may the memory of his example long remain to in spire and to cheer. J. G. R. From the Charlotte Democrat CONJECTURES, FEB. 8, 1878. On hearing the indications of a more ex tensive war in Europe.) Great Britain and Austria, aided pro bably by Spain and Portugal, will come in conflict with Russia as tlie division of the spoils of the Turkish empire. Russia will be aided by Italy, by the States of Greece, and by the new Principalities which she is carving out of Turkey. She will also probably have the aid of Persia. Prussia, or Germany proper, will take no active part. She will restrain France and keep her quiet. Ireland will probably raise against England, and Hungary will strike for in dependence against both Austria and Russia. England will be revolutionized, in that Church and State will be divorced, never again to be united: " " The new Pontiff, now being chosen, will be a warlike head of his Church. He will excommunicate King Humbert of Italy, and hurl anathemas against the Czar of Russia. He will encourage Ire land. He will make a last supreme effort for temporal power, but Babylon will fall, both in England and in Italy Spain, Por tugal, Austria and all Catholic countries. Church and State constitute "Babylon." The Turks will bo driven into Asia. The Sultan, will "raise the standard of the Prophet."- Russia may, in a few days, proclaim a Patriarch of Constantinople. England will pour a vast army into Palestine, from the West by the Mediter ranean. The cofiflict at that point will be for the Suez land, for Egypt, and for safjety of India. The last great battle will probably be fought between Mount Carmel and Mount Tabor, in the Valley of Megiddo. All the powers engaged will draw off greatly shattered. The Provi dential work for the time will have been accomplished! Russia, England and Prussia will then be the great powers in Asia, Europe and Africa. Ancient Greece will be re-united and independent, and Italy will be in the hands of Christian powers. The great conflict will be detrimental in some respects to some of the interests of the people of the United States, but, upon the whole, it will greatly enrich them. Free ships make free goods. Our ships will go everywhere, doing much of the carrying trade of the world. Besides, we will necessarily have the monopoly of the Japanese and Chinese trade. Moan while, cotton, tobacco and the like, pur chased and laid up at low prices, will pay large profits at the end of the war. Sad Case. Richmond, Va., Feb. 6. A young lady, Miss Emma Davenport, said to be most respectably connected, was brought here on Sunday last charged with an offense against the United States pos tal laws. She was but twenty-one years of age, and' fair. Tho evidence at the trial developed that she had been for a long time assistant and acting as Post master at Goochland - Court House, and had borrowed a silk dress sent by mail to that postoffice. She tearfully pleaded guilty beiore the United States Circuit Court this morning, and. Was permitted to return to Goochland on payment of a fine of $100 and costs. " BIEDm THE ASYLUM.

Charlotte Observer. NAVIGATION or teh YADKIN RIVER. (Correspondence ot the Baleigh Observer.) Salisburt, N. C., l'Sftn' Febt, 1878. Messrs. Editohs I hope - you? will allow me a little space in your most val uable paper,. for the purpose of giving my views upon a scheme which. I tm convinc ed, if carried through, will prve a Tast benefft,not ouly to many of our Western counties, but to other ' sections of our State. I refer to the proposition of mak ing navigable that part of the Yadkin river from the point where the N. C. B. Road crosses the stream to Wilkesboro, a distance by the river, of about one hun dred and ten miles. A word.: first, in re ference to this beautiful stream. It flows through a fertile region, which is occupied by an industrious and frugal people. The valley of said river, betweeu the town of Wilkesboro, on the N. C. R. Road, which crosses the river five miles east ward from Salisbury I highly cultiva ted, producing every variety of fruits of the earth, common to this latitude, such as cotton, corn, wneat, rye, tobacco, ap ples, peaches,; ect., etc., and forest timbers of the best quality are found in great abundance. The people of this splendid region, (several thousand square miles in extent,) have no means of transportation for their" products,' either byVater or rail. And further, it is not on the r line of any proposed railroad, and it will, in all hu man probability, be a great number of years before any railroad will be built through this section.' The only hope of the inhabitants seems to be in a pro ject, which has long been in contempla tion, viz: to ntilize the water of this river, as a means of transportation for carrying to market their surplus products. And it is the opinion of the writer, who has closely examined many miles of this stream, as well also, that of others of more experience, that these waters can be utilized by the removal of some obstruc tions at the few shoals so as to make it navigable for small steam boats and oth er craft. -The Legislature of our State on the ISth day of February 1875, passed an act incorporating the "Yadkin River and Wilkesboro Navigation Company," with a capital stock of fifty thousand dollars, divided into one thousand shares of fifty dollars each. We ask from our National Congress an appropriation to aid us in carrying out this laudable enterprise. It is necessary to give, just at this time, what amount is required to make this stream navigable as far as Bean's shoals, a distance of about fifty-nine miles, and nearly opposite Richmond Hill (the resi dence of our late Chief Justice.) This is the Cist point (Bean's shoal) to which we should first endeavor to go, commenc ing below and working up. But suffice it to say, that as much money as would build a railroad tcu miles through this section, will enable us to run a boat, with a draft of 24 inches, over 50 miles. So far as I have been able to learn, a number of years ago a sum of about thirty thousand dollars was expended at Bean's Shoals for the purpose of getting a channel of sufficient depth for a boat with a draft three feet. Much good work was then done, which will prove a benefit in our present under taking. What an oversight and misfor tune that the work was begun at that point t For had that amount of money been spent on the part of the river be tween the bridge and the shoals, long ere now we would have had boats ruuning to the above named place. This partial success would have demanded tho com pletion of ihe work to Wilkesboro. I have endeavored to gain access to the pa pers and books showing the expenditure of money at this point, but have failed thus far to come up with them. It may be, that some people are afraid that a little boat, known in these latter days by the name of "Fraud," would come gliding over Bean's Shoal wall. I make no accu sation, for I do not know who had control of the work. However that may be,"" if any reader of this should know how to direct me or my associates where to find papers throwing light upon the matter, such person1 or persons will confer a favor fby giving us the information. Wilming ton seems to need a channel of some sort, as a direct line of communication with this mountain region to her roost valua ble port. Some one, through the columns of the Wilmington Eevicic suggest the cutting of a cannal from a navigable point of the Cape Fear across to 'a navigable point of the Yadkin. Now I say to Wil mington, aid us with your influence, or whatever else yon may see proper to give in carrying out our project, a,nd we will then have two navigable points. After we" gained this, we will then take into consideration your canal scheme. The success of our work will demand the suc cess of your canal ; or, what wonld seem more feasible to me, if the proposed rail road from Gulf to Greensboro should be turned to the railroad bridge or Salisbury, passing through Ashboroand the Randolph factories. I believe this would prove a vast benefit not only to Wilmington, but ail that undeveloped region between the Gulf and Salisbury ; and moreover, the success of the one will demand the other. Should this be done, soon we would have a direct line of transportation from Wilkesboro to our most valuable port Wilmington. This is notanewor wild undertaking itis practicable. Frequently, in conversation with gentlemen who have seen the Yad kin and its splendid bottoms, they will almost invariably exclaim : "If this stream was in one of our Northern States, it would have been made navigable long ago." What do such expressions mean t Is it possible that we Southern people have not energy to create and carry out projects which will redound to the good of our section Y Can it be that the South eru man is so asleep to public interest, projects of internal improvements are merely thought and spoken of, but not acted upon T Oris it because, when a spirit of public improvement manifests ! itself, and turns to its National Govern ment and asks for aid, it is rejected, be cause forsooth the scheme is more imme diately to prove a benefit to that section of country south of Mason's and Dixon's line. Surely it cannot be true that tills spirit is the same that gives to the less dangerous coast of Northern States, a greater number of life saving stations, while our more dangerous are supplied with a smaller number of stations than it absolutely necessary for the preservation of life and property. No, this cannot be, for there are more lives of the people from the North that are lost than of the South. The destruction of property and Teasels falls more heavily upon Northern capital ists than Southern. Again, internal im provements at the South are much to the interest of the people of tho North. There fore I am forced to the conclusion that to attribute a spirit of partiality to our Con gress is, and must be, an error. With such representatives as our noble Ransom, our energetic Robbins, our true Steele, and our working Scales and WaddeU, who are ever watchful of the Interest of North Carolina, we may expect much, very much, to be accomplished. Yours truly, F. B. A Woman Burned to Death Children Crushed by a Log. Two or three days ago a colored wo man named Matilda Holland, living in Dallas, Gaston county, met death in a shocking manner. Her infant was in a cradle whieh was sitting before the fire, and as tho mother passed between the hearth and the cradle to arrange the child more comfortably, the flames communi cated themselves to her clothing and she ran screaming from the house. She rush ed around the premises in a perfect fren zy nntil the clothing was burned entirely from her person, when she fell exhausted to the ground and died in an hour in in tense pain. Her flesh was literally roasted and was almost ready to fall from the bones. About the same day at Garibaldi Sta tion, in tlie same county, three colored children were playing around a heavy saw-log which had been placed on the side of an elevation and there propped, when one of them pulled out the prop, whereupon the log started down the hill, catching one of the children in its descent, rolliug over it and crushiug it to death. One or both of the remaining two were more or less hurt by the same occurrence. Charlotte Observer. A Horrible Death. - On Wednesday a colored man, whose name is unknown, was run over by a train on the Air-Line Railroad, and was mangled in a horrible manner. He was lying on the track near King's Mountain asleep or so drunk that he could not arise. and the engineer being unable to stop his train, all of the cars passed over him. His body was dragged underneath the train for some distance and torn into pieces. The frequency of the loss of life in this manner is quite remarkable. In this case, so for as we have been able to learn, no blame at taches to the engineer, who could not possible stop Charlotte Observer. A Cincinnati thief fell down when shot by a policeman, but as soon as he ascer tained that it was only a flesh wound he wanted to be shot over again so as to get some pnblic sympathy.
