J . o iU,atiAB UHDES IJIFFICL'L- Trsa. Yesterday afternoon one of 8lishii- 7'b charming young ladies Was seen to I board the northern bound train in a closely f veuca ana, altogether, would-be incog con dition. At the same instant a young gen tleman, with a bland and innocent counte nance, was ooserred to catch on to the hsmoker. This was very slender evidence, yei tne bystanders immediately made out a ease "beyond a reasonable doubt," and rendered a verdict of elopement in the first degree. A few hours after this another trsin brought a happy bride and groom back to friends innumerable. At Lexing ton, Mr. H. C. Williams and Miss Qora L. Swiccgood were made one flesh, and their cup of happiness was filled to overflowing. It is the tmiver?al wish of all who knew them, and they are many, "That life mightlie all happiness And sorrow, but a name." o r Commencement at Davidson. The ex ercises at Davidson College this week have been of a highly interesting character. They close to day. We learn from the Journal-Observer of this morning, that Moj. Robert Bingham, of the Bingham School, delivered on Monday evening his address on "The Physical, Intellectual and Moral Culture of Man." This address was first delivered at the University of Virgin ia, and elicited very high praise. The at tendance at Davidson on this occasion was very large, attracting a great number of the old students who so naturally feel a deep interest in the progress of the Institu tion. There were three vacancies in the Pro fessorship to be filled, to wit : Greek, Latin and Mathematics, by the resignations of Profs. Latimer, Sampson and Carson, who have nccepted positions in other placss, or gone to look after private interests in other States. The Trustees have readily sup plied the places of these distinguished teachers- by the election of Prof. Geo. F. Nicolassen, A. M., Ph D., of the Soutfr western Presbyterian University, at Clarkes ville, Tenn., to the chair of Greek ; W. J. Bingham, to the chair of Latin ; and Prof. Vincent, of Texas, to the chair of Mathe matics. These are all distinguished schol ars in the departments they are called to fill. Col. Bennet H. Young, of Kentucky, de livered the annual oration. After a few pleasing remarks on his first acquaintance with North Carolina and her men, he an nounced as his subject, "The True Test of Human Greatness." The effort was di rected mainly to impress his hearer? with the idea of unselfish aims, as the surest road to happiness and fume. o Fiue. Mr. Andrew Kiucaid had the misfortune to lose his new dwell inn house and several outhouses by fire, Tuesday night last. It is not absolutely known how the lire originated, but it is believed by the family that it was from matches which had been incautiously left on a shelf in the reach of mice. Al most the entire contents of the house were lost, the fire having made too much pi ogress before it was discovered to re move much property. MINING. T. K. BKUNKK, MANAGES. Fou the Boston Show. Mr. J. D. Stewart, the Superintendent of Dunn's Mountain Mine. ha promised to send a large gold brick from this mine to the Bostou Exhibition. l Mr. J. J. Newman, of the Dutch Creek none has promised two large nuggets of native gold, and piece of free milling gold ore of 300 pounds weight, valued at $30. Memorandum of Mining work iu the counties of Burke, McDowell and Ruth erford, by Prof. G. B. Hunna: The operations at the Hancock Vein continue unchanged. At the Carolina Queen the placer work-is actively prose cuted, and several veins are opened to furnish the mill now iu process of erec tion with an abundance of material for its work. J. C. Mills, at Brindlctowu, it is report ed, has recently uncovered richer mate rial. At the Grey son mine but little work is doing. At the Atkins mine more work is done this season than usual. The sluice and ditch at the Gamble mine are nearly finished : tlieir capacity is about 100 inches of water, and the head will be ample to allow good work ou the. gravel, which, it is claimed, is un usually good ; everything here is favora ble for a good piece-of work in the way of production. At the Vein Mountain mine the state of affairs is w ithout change, aud but little work is doue. A considerable force of men is sluicing on the Hard Bargain, ad jacent, and the superintendent reports satisfactory returns. The petty work of this section is not so actively prosecuted as in former years, as the returns from farming work are more remunerative than formerlv. Preparing' f;r Boston. Political Honors iu China Wong Chin Foo, la Harper's Monthly. In order to secure even the first fruits of political emolument, a mode of pro cedure diametrically opposite to that which obtains in most nations, and es pecially in the United States, is required. Instead of money or its equivalent in "backers" aud "heelers," bruiu is there required, and an exceedingly well balanced aud disciplined brain at that. In no other nation upon the earth are political honors based npou scientific at tainments in all branches of study as they are in China, wherein are illustrated the true principles by which talent and wisdom are honored and rewarded, liter ature, science, morals and philosophy encouraged, and a nation's happiness and prosperity secured. The avenues to station and power are open alike to all. There are 410 distinc tions save those of education ; none rela tive to nationality, color or previous condition of servitude. All are alike! free to seek, and, if competent, to obtain positions of honor, from that of petty magistrate of a village to Grand Imperial Secretary an office second only to that of Emperor. Few there are, it is tine, who possess the fortitude to undergo the necessary educational training consequent to, aud upon which depends the sole hope of success. Of his studies there is no end. To dilligence he mutt add patience, and to patience continuity, else will he fail to secure the coveted prize. Press Comments. The N. Y. World to-day. speaking of the Star Route ver dict, says: The verdict of the Heitublican jjurv is a tribute to Repnblcan utility. It was prompted by gratitude tor Republi can services. It was facilitated by judi cial mon te hankism. It was assisted by legal stupidity and injudicious State evi dence. t wais clinched by the ten days' drivel of fat-witted orators. The N. T. Smh, in an article ou the recommendations of I the Navy Yard Commissioner, says: The navy yarus are at present hospitals for decrepit and useless craft, aud ceutues of political intrigue aud election bribery. All of them that are not imperatively necessary should be at once swept away. The N. Y. Times says: The administration regards the miscarriage of justice iu the Star Route trials as "a very serious blow." That is a good sign. It show s at least that the administration has a proper sense of its shortcomings iu the past, for if it were still content to maintain an uncertain at titude toward these guilty men it wonld "acquiesce in the verdict," and stop rar tlier prosecutions. o Moueheau City, Dr. Griffith and Mr. David Gaskill have just returned from the sea coast, w here they spent a week or two iu fishing, boating, bathing, &e.

Panic among Children in a khow Home One Hundred and Seventy-Eiyht Tram pled to Death. London, June 16. An accident from a crush ocenred at the children's entertain ment at Sunderland, Englaud, this even ing and 178 of the children were killed. From details thus far received, it ap pears that an entertainment had been given in victoria nun by a composer which was attended almost altogether by children to the number of several thou sand. The accident occurred at the close oi the nerioruiance. i no boov oi tne hall had been entirely cleared of its occu pants when some 2,000 little ones came rushing down stairs from the gallery. At the top of the first flight of stairs there was a door which opened only twenty inches aud thus only ono child could pass through at a time. At this point while the mass of the children were pushing forward one of them fell and was unable to rise owing to the others crowdiug on. The result was that a great number were pushed down, trampled on and suffocated. The scene .was terrible aud no effort could stop the mud rush of affrighted children. They came ou pell mell down stairs, though quickly and without much shouting. The bodies which were badly mangled from tramp ling laid seveu or eight deep. Many of the victims and others who were not killed had their clothing torn froui their bodies. The ages of the 178 children known to have been killed range from 4 to 14 years. The excitement in the town when the news of tho disaster spread was territic. G reat crowds oi people rushed to the scene until at least 20,000 persons surrounded the hall. The feeling was so intense that the authori ties called the 63th Infantry t preserve order. The work of getting out the bodies of the victims was begun imme diately. They were laid out in the hall and the parents of those killed were ad mitted lor the purpose of identifying the bodies of their children. The most heart 'i t-tiding scenes transpired while the work of identification was in progress. Dr. C. Y. Dabney, State Chemist, is traveling in this part of the State at present, iu the interest of the North Car olina exhibit at the Mechanics' aud Man ufacturers" Fair to be held at Bostou next fall, and spent yesterday at Statesville. We trust ihe people of our section will give the movement every encouragement, as it is of great importance that the State should be creditably represented at this great exposition. We are glad to know that Statesville will occupy her abate of space iu the State exhibit. Dr. Dabney has chosen Mr. T. K. Br utter, of Salisbu ry, (an excellent selection, by the way), as his sub-agent in a tier of counties in which Iredell, Alexander, Wilkes and Yadkin are embraced, to work up inter est iu aud secure contributions" for the Bostou fair. Landmark. Thanks, but let me correct you. The counties assigned me are, Montgomery, Stanly, northern Cabarrus, Rowan, Ire- 111 mm uen, Alexander and uatawua. lhc par ticular work assigned is the collection ot minerals. The assistance of friends in these counties is desired aud will he en couraged, as all the woj k must be doue by the 2d week iu August. The shoit uese of the time will render every favoi acceptable, This is the first time the State has been induced to "spread herself," so to speak, and the indications are that the exhibit will be the most magnificent ever see u , a ud will dazzle even those who are familial with our resources. Cabarrus Mines. NO. 4. The Eureka Consols Mining Go's prop erty adjoins the Cabarrus Gold ami Sil ver Miuiur Coiunanv. The Eureka c i , v Consols Mining Company have on their proncrtv a continuation ot two of the most prominent veins of the PIhrihx. and . 9 is situated about one-half mile north-east from the Phoenix. Thev have also combination ot Use Mammoth vein of the Cabarrus Gold and Silvel Mining Com pany. The work done on this property consists of one abaft sunk on the No. 1 vein to a depth ot 40 feet, a tunnel driveu at this depth of over 60 feet in length, w hich show s large quantities of rich ores. A shaft is now being sunk on No. 2 vein and is down 30 feet. They anticipate striking the vein in the shaft at about 60 feet in depth. This vein like No. 1 in all of the origiual workings, produced ores very rich iu gold. This property bids fair to become a very valuable property, and as such its owners hold it. They, being satisfied of its intrinsic value, will wait with patience the demonstrations to be made by the present system of explo rations now carried on at the mines, which are daily proving of the most flattering character. WHO. June 13, 1883. Chicago Lakd Break. Chicago, June 18. The story iu regard to the great break iu laid appears to have been ery completely told. This morning ou change it was looked forward to with considerable fear that the market might take another downward turn, but it proved otherwise, and at 11 o'clock July option w hich closed at 9.77 Saturday, had riseu to 9.95, and the feeling was comparatively firm. Be yond the firms reported in these des patches Saturday, uone others have suc cumbed, aud the firm of Ellis & Light tier who are among those reported as crip pled, have transferred their deals, aud in this manuer have tided over. The associated press estimate of losses, put ting them at $2,5(K),000, is as nearly accurate as can now be made. Some published accounts swell these figures to $3,000,000, but this is largely based on conjecture. The firm of McGeoch, Er riugham Sr Co. decline to furnish any additional data at this time, aud can make r.o statement until some days have elapsed. Advices ritox Peru.

We make no apology for again return ing to a theme that is worthy of ' any Southern pen. If the politicians aud men in office would give their attenmm to the subject of forestry, and would study the best methods of proticting A. rests, they would be doing a needed and important work. Because, as in North Carolina there are tens of thousands of square miles of virgin forests, it need not lie thought that there is no danger to the sections and that it is folly to plant trees. We have examined enough into the sub ject to know that therejias been a shame ful waste of trees, and a consequent evil attending it. The lessors to be studied are to be drawu from the old count ries in Europe. There the devastation of forests through the centuries has been very great. There w ise and thoughtful meu have call ed to the aid of the despoiled aud deso lated provinces tho best men of science, and with the most encouraging results. Wit. Star. . The Star Route Trial has ended with the acquittal of the rogues. It does seem all but impossible for the people to get justice in the courts at Washington. The trouble is probably due to the cor ruption which pervades the air of that citT- Society is taiutsd from top to bot tom. Meu iu high official life give the tone to society and a feeling seems to per meate all classes that the government is fair game, and that no one should be pun ished for peculation asd fraud upon the public treasury. The remedy is to put new and more honest men in office. Netes-Obsercer. Important Civil Rights Decisions. Austin, June 15. In the U. S. District Court yesterday an opinion was rendered in the criminal prosecution, under, the Civil Rights act of Congress of March, 1875, for a penalty of $500 for excluding Laura Evans, colored, from the lady car on the Ilotistou & Texas Central Rail road. Niueteeu similar cases were also disposed of. The Court held the law as unconstitutional, aud that the things alleged were cognizable by the State tri bunals only ; also, that the act was an infringement ou the rights of the several States. Cleared. The Star Routers have beeu cleared by a verdict of not guilty. This is not un expected, however shameful. Probably, there is not a man in the United States not connected with the alleged thieves or with the Government who does not be lieve iu the guilt of the fellows who have beeu cleared by the bribed jury. But few, probably, hoped that the men who had been robbing the people would be couvicted. It was understood that money, and a plenty of it, would be used, and that Brady and company must not be convicted. To prosecute them has cost the people many thousands aud still the culprits are to go free. It is such trials as this tliat create a big disgust and bring the jury system under suspicion and re proach. WU. Star. MECKLENBURG WORKS JOHN WILKES, Proprietor. CHARLOTTE, N. C.

The anxiety of both political parties to evade the tariff issue is shown iu the en deavor of each party to fasten on the oth er the intent of evasion. But the ques tion cannot be delayed by the timidity or crnft of party leadership.

The business of the Council will only pertain to eccle siastical offices of this country, not involv ing Irish affairs. It is three months since Bishop Spaulding left Rome, and the above was the Pontifical intention at the time of his departure. Plans for the es tablishment of a Catholic univeisity in this country are immature." It Is asked how Minister Hunt and Adminil Baldwin could receive the gold medal, gold snuffbox and portrait ot the Czn represented them by the Russian go verm en t after the late coronation, as the constitution forbids public officers rwivinir such uifts. It is common for - o o such gifts, when mere expressions of es teem for our government, as in this case, to be legalized by Congress authorizing the recipients to accept aud keep them, but they cau't be accepted without the special assent of the government. The late Czar presented Minister Curtiu with a life-size portrait of the Russian ruler, aud Congress unanimously passed ajyiut resolution authorizing Curtiu to accept and possess it.
