Steel Nov. 12tb, 1883. Dear Watchman: The farmers of this community are fast gathering in and winding up the crop ot ibb.i, which has proved exceed ingly light. Cotton has not reached half a crop, and corn is still farther iu the background. But few of us can afford to start a "ah licking," consequently cuffee will fail iu his annual feast ou pot pie and tho "oh be joyful," and the old chicken roosters will roam scott free. The guano agent, the town merchant aud cross road trader, are all on the qui vive and the postal dunns "oh how they fly." But after all we can see a light hole in the future aud Steel is like ly to come through it "right side up with care." The past 8ummerand fall has been very favorable for hay -making and the crop saved is large and good and the farmers have taken advantage of the recent fiue weather for sowing wheat aud the crop already sown is larger than ever before known iu this community.

The Luther Celebratiou at Concord on the 10th, was largely attended by Chris tian people oLall the Evangelical church es. A number ot addresses were made. and among them one by lie. Dr. J.

In accordance with previous notice this address was rejpeated here ou Sunday morning last.; The church was well tilled by christians of all the protest ant churches of this place; and although longer than an ordinary sermon, it was listened to throughout with deep interest from begiuning to end: Luther celebrations have been held in all the principal cities and towns in this country, aud throughout England, Scot lund and Europe. The great reformer did a work which abounds to the glory ot God, in liberating the minds aud con sciences of men fioin the dominion of priestcraft and pointing them to the only sure road of salvation through a univer sally approachable Saviour.- His work therefore belongs not to a single denomi nation but to the whole world ; and hence it is, that Evangelical chris tians of every name and country heartily unite in celebrating his anniversary.

Julius Frazier, colored, in Atwell town ship, near Spring Grove, got into a diffi culty with Lawrence White, colored, (all of Iredell county), on the night of the 7th inst., which resulted iu the death of Fra zier. The trouble bejrun at a house on Mr. .Johu Hedrick's plantation, and White aud his brother started for their home in Iredell, but were followed by Frazier and brother, who overtook them about! a quar ter of a mile from the house, renewed the quarrel, aud struck White a blow on the head with a hickory club. White tlrew a common pocket kuile and com menced cutting Frazier, making several cuts on his body and dually striking at his throat severed the jugular vein, when Frazier eot awtiv- and walked about 50.1 yards and fell. It appeared on the examination; before Justice McLean, that the brothers of the principals, were mixed up in the tight, so that both the Whites were put uiitler ar rest. The surviving Frazier was also put under arrest for an assult ou Lawrauce White's brother. After the Coroner's inquest on the night of the 8th, the three prisoners were locked up iu a lumber room at J. F. MeLeau's. This was about 9i o'clock at night, and a guard was placed over them tof prevent an escape. About Hi o'clock twelre or fifteen mounted meu (all colored) dashed up to the place aud demand the key to the room. They were armed, and the guard felt themselves overpowered and surrendered the key. In less tiine than it takes to tell it, thn prisoners were brought out and carried tiff. Mr. McLean heard the tramp of horses iu thoyard ; bat the work was done with such celerity and skill that the whole party had left before he could get out, No pursuit was attempted. Next morning the body of Lawrence White, the man who killed Julius Frazier, was lotiud only a quarter of a liijie from McLean's, in the woods, hanging by the ueek from, the limb ofrtt tee. The pti er two prisoners are missing. Diligent search was made for them, but Up to this time thejc is Uo account of them. It is believed they were allowed to runaways to e&tfSpe out of the country. The most remarkable thiug about this sad case is, that there was not the slight est suspicion of a mob. There was "o evidence ot' such a feeliug either at the trial before Justice McLean or at the in quisition of the Coroner. It was a com plete surprise to the guard, w ho were on ly placed on duty to prevent the prison ers from breaking out, aud there was no preparation to guard against such an event The mob iu this case made a great mis take. Frazier was the assailant in the tight iu which he lost his life. He not only pui sued White and rcuewed the Observations of Miss Fannie Mat Yitt in Her Rambles Through the Old North State.

The North Carolinian has no nonsense about him, he does not court your favor by the winning grace of his brother in the neighboring State ; he is shrewd, chews his own tobacco, aud says "durn.'" As a soldier he fonght with a tenacity and pluck of a hero, aud to day makes no boast of it ; in fact, but for the war record which shows the great per cent, of ''slain" among the Noith Carolinian, one would never know that "Bravely they fought, and well," for aught they'll tell you of it. My first point was Wilmington, a town which struck me iu the first place, pleasautly, because there you have the water, washing up dark aud cold at the city's very feet, and the pretty white sails "that have about them the joyous- ness of a bird." My next impression was that of the town's having accomplished less for its advantages than any other of my knowledge, aud that there were more negroes, goat wagons and ox carts visible than anything else on the streets.

There is Kocklugham, very small and dead ; Wadesboro, small but brisk Monroe, with the ugliest court house and the cleverest people out ; and Charlotte, very "toney," prettily and substantially built; modem, apace with the age, and refreshingly brisk. I might Hud it in iy heart to wish that towus like Charlotte were more frequent.

To day the American Exposition closes, It has been the most sticcesslul ot any that the New England Manufacturers' and Mechanics' lustitue ever held. It has been of special value to New England, because it has brought before our people such a display of the resources of this country, as was never before assembled iu our history. It is, iu some respects, the greatest thing that has been done in years for the advancement of our indus trial interests. Without taking into ac count the splendid exhibits made by the esteru and Southwestern roads, that ot the State of North Carolina, by its breadth, its completeness, and its admirable ar rangemeut, has done much to promote the mutual interests of that State aud o New Englaud. Our readers will bear iu mind the fact that steam liues between Boston and Nor folk are constantly plying, and at that poiut connection is made with the system of railways that cover tho seaboard and central sections of the State, that reach iuto the mouutaiu department, that are rapidly extending, so that soon the forests, mines, fields, plantations and fisheries of the entire State will be within two or three days' journey of this city. Looking upon this exhibit with special reference to its bearings upon the industrial inter ests of New England, the Commercial Bulletin regarded it as of such prime importance that it furnished a series of articles iu previous issues for the infor mation of its readers. During the past two months some four hundred citizens ot the Old North State, prominent in political, commercial aud social life, have visited Boston and become acquainted with its institutions and its people. During the same jeiiod many ot Martin Luther. Grand Celebration in Europe of Vie 400f ; Annirersary of His Birth.

Worms, Nov. 10. In this city where Luther was brought before the Diet iu 1521, a uew hall was opened in his honor. Ceremonies were conducted with great splendor and were attended by immense crowds of people. London, Nov. 10.

Nicely, ) been induced by what they have st-en at the Exposition, to make, or to determine to make, excursions to North Carolina, that thev may see for themselves the country which posess's such infinite va riety of natural sources of wealth. The result of this interchange of visits, and of the information gained by the people of both sections, is already apparent iu a considerable increase of trade beneficial alike to both, ami this increase is but the beginning of an exchange of commodities between the two, whose future volume no one can estimate. That it will greatly add to the prosperity of Xoith Carolina is beyond question.

White could not have been con- Cautioning intending immigrants to the South against the idea that it is a secoud garden of Eden, where toil and disappointment and need are unknown, The North and South, of Buffalo, N. Y., says : The South is no paradise for fools, nor is it any asylum tor idlers. Like the rest of the world, its inhabitants rest under the curse of Adam, "by the sweat of thy brow thou salt earn thy bread." Those who do not work, aud those who work unwisely, tail in the South as thj?y do elsewhere. Even those who wprk well fail sometimes, as they do every where else in this unreliable world, though the chances of retrieving fallen fortunes in tho South are better than thev possibly can be where humanity is crowded more densely together, as in Europe or in the North. No, kind reader, the South is merely a field of splendid opportunities nothing more ; a good field to work in, but not an infallible one. Do not enter it unless you are are prepared to r take off your coat aud work like a good fellow. Tramps are not wanted there, and carpet-baggers are not so much of a paying crop now as they were a few years ago. That the chances of a moderate success ate better to-day in the Scuth than in rim North, we hold unflinchingly ; but that success has got to be earned there, as here, and earned in the same old-fashioned way which our forefathers fouud necessary. The South at the Exposition. New Orleans Times Democrat. It is probable, almost certain, that every Southern State will have a State exhibit at the World's Indus trial and Cotton Centennial Expo sition. Arkansas can claim the credit of having led off with au appropriation for this purpose, while leune&see is the first to ship her exhibits here. Tuesday,' tweuty-two cases, being a portion of Tennessee's display at the Huston Fair, were forwarded to this city, and the re mainder will follow iu a few days. North- Carolina has agreed to do the same thing and her mineral display will koou be on its way here. From the other Stales we have equally favorable news. The agitation going on iu the Texa press, shows that there i no reason to doubt that ihe Legislature when it meets iu extra session in January, will make a very liberal appropriation An army officer tells a story about Capf. Edward M. Haves of the Fifth United States Cavalry, that is interesting. Be fore the war, when H.tyes was a bugler iu Texas, and only a stripling with a handsome face, a lithe figure, and amaz ing skill with the bugle, he became a great favorite of Fitzliugh Lee, then an officer in tho United States service. Tlie Coinanches were a wild aud hostile tribe of Indians then, the Second Cavalry was having 'encounters with thcui. Oa one occasion, when bugler Hayes was out ou a scout with a pait of the troop and Lee, the latter was set upon by Yellow Bear, a Comanche brave of considerable renown among his red brethren. The two grap pled and Yellow Bear was feeling aboat iu his scanty clothing for a knite or a tomahawk or some other weapon, whan Lee called out to Hayes, who had come to the rescue, to shoot Yellow B tar. As the officer and the Indian were whirling about on the ground, now one uppermost and then the other, Hayes endeavored to get a shot at the red man that would not kill both red and white. At last ho se cured an opportunity, an. I seat a bullet tearing through Yellow Bear's skull. Fitzhugh Lee was very grateful, and al ways remembered ihe service. The Pres ident, by the way, has given Capt. Hayes an agreeable position. Ho called at tiio White House the other day to pay his respects, as he had made the President's acquaintance whilo escorting him through the Yellowstone Park in August. Hav ing expressed a desire to be detailed to duty in the East, aftet long service o.i the frontier, he was next day ordered by the Secretary of War to take charge of a recruiting statiou in North Carolina.

A Louisiana cotton planter, E. E. Kidd, writing to Major Burke, director general of the World's Cotton Exposition, suggests that during the holding of the exposition there be held in New Orleans a cottou growers' convention to discuss the question of over production of cotton, as well as other subjects in which cotton growers are interested. One of the trustees of the Peabotly educa tional fund, the venerable Robert C. Wiuth'rop, speaking of Federal aid to educatiou, says: "National aid is the only adequate provision in this great exigency and the nation will be false to its own highest obligations aud respousiblities iu leaving it undone." Philadelphia Record : The most im portant result of the New Yoik election is to strengthen C. A. Arthur us the next Republican candidate for Piesideut. If New York declares for Arthur iu the next Republican National Convention he will probably be the candidate of his party, aud there is good reason to be lieve that New York will so declare. In forecasting the probable result of the next Presidential election, it will be well for amat are statisticians to bear iu mind, that a solid South and forty-eight other votes will constitute a majority of the whole number of 401 electorial votes to be cast. As matters stand at present this makes a very discouraging outlook for the Republican party. Washington Star, 2nd. Augusta Chronicle : The removal of George D.
