Wri Ing on Postal Car s
A long-standing order of the post-fcflice
department has required that all postal
cards having any portion of I the message
written on their face should be treated as
unmailable. First Assistant Postmaster
i
General Tyner recently resciniei this
order to the extent of holding that such
writing shall not render! them unmailable
per se, nor prevent their being forwarded
unless -it makes the address lllegiole.
The public are cautioned, however, that
by writing any portion of the message on
the face they will incur a risk of the cards
being missent or delayed. i

as yet no replies have been received. The
Wadesboro Herald, received yesterday,
states, however, that the Anson Veterans
will probably come. Arrangements have
been made with tha railroads to transport
companies at the rate of one and a half
cents por mile each way from near points,
and $4 for each member from Wilming

A Little Breeze.
i The usual quiet at the corner of Chest
nut and North Water streets was stirred
into a little ripple of excitement this after
noon by a half drunken white man, elad
in a red blouse, who tried persistently to
pick up a fight with a very peaceably
disposed colored man. The colored man
did his best to avoid a conflict, but. red
6hirt kept following him up, giving him
an invitation ; to walk up to Paddy's
Hollow, where, he (red shirt) could be
found ready and willing at all times to
whip any man who didn't weigh over 165
pounds. I At last patience ceased to be
longer a virtue and the colored man picked
up a stick and hit red shirt over the
head, breaking the cudgel in two pieces.
This was unfortunate for red shirt's head
which deserved to he broken. After the
blow was passed the colored man walked
up towards Mulberry street, and was soon
foUowed by the would-be bully.

Advance In Naval Stores.
There has been a very flattering, and to
the producers a very gratifying, increase in
the price of all kinds cf naval stores very
recently. A month ago, September llb,
spirits was quoted at 25 cents, and to
day it sold for SI cents; rosin is in de
mand toVday at $1.25 for strained and
$1.30 for good strained, as against 92
cents ; and 97 cents a mcnth ago; tar is
quoted now at $1 an advance of 10
cents, and crude turpentine .8 quoted to
day at $1.25 for hard and $2.10 for soft
an advance of 25 cents on hand and 50
cents on soft.
; As for cotton, sales were made to day
Qn a basis of jL0 cents for middling; on
September 18th it wast quoted at 10! for
middling, but we must remember that at
that time cotton was on the boom and has
i
since declined everywhere. Ihe tendency
of the market now seems upward.

Different
Opinions
Up m the
Weather.
,To of our .old, or, perhaps we Lad
be ter J say, middle aged, .respectable
cit:zens were in conversation t j-day upon
the subject of the weather Ihi first
gjnt!emau remarked thit this was
exactly the s.me kind of weather that
existed during the dark days of 1S62
when ..tan yellow fever scmnjo vitited
our devoted city warm aad 'drr, with
no prospect of frost at an early day, and
gave it as hh opinion th it -frost would
not be seen any gjjucr h.'re this year
than on that memorable year, when tho
first visible sigDS of it appeared on the
15th of November Citizen No. 2 there
upon consulted his du-y ad.said that
in the year 1877 the first frost seen here
was on the 13 h of November
and he beiicved that we would not have
it sooner than the last named date, but
that he would d.ffer with his friend and
cotemporary and give the last named date
as the time in his opinion when we would
have the first siht of Oi l J tck Frost.
Both of the g'tlemen n-ft rred to above
are native and to the manner Aorn and
have lived on the old Cae Fear all of
their lives, but notwithstanding this fact
wo are going to quote a third party whose
opinion we think will carry greater
weight than either of our friends alluded
to above. This third party is none
other than old Probabilities, who informs
ns that for the South Atlantic States we
i
are to have rains, followed by colder
Northwest winds to-night .and to-morrow
morning. In that event we think old
Jack Froat will be apt to put in an ap
pearence now in a few days. At any
rate, we earnestly hopo that poor fever
stride. j Memphis will be visited by him
whether we are or not.
Strangers in the city should not fail to
visit the S sh 'Factory foot of Walnut
street. i f
important Arrests.
William Fisher and John Fisher, broth
er, were arrested yesterday and lodged in
jail in default of $100 each lor their ap-
pearance before Justice Gardner on Mon
day. The former is charged with har
boring the notorious Alonzo Elri, alias
Elvi Johnson, alias Tom Johnson, the
colored desperado, and the latter with as
sisting Johnson in the abduction of ! his!
wife,Jalthoughhow thie latter can be made
a penal oflance weare'yet to learn.
The particulars in regard to the arrests
were in possession of a Review repoter
yesterday, but at the earnest solicitation
of some of the officers of the law, who
thought to publish it at the time might
defeat some'of the ends of juctica. it was
withheld. It is not the first time we have
been obliging in this respect, only to find
the item in the Star next morning, but,
gentlemen, it is about tho last.
