Mother Shipton's P.ophecy.
There are very many people who bold

by one 'Mother Shipton,' an English seer
ess. lit has been discovered that the
book of prophecies, as published by, her
about 1684, contains no such prophetic
statement. A man named Hindley fabri
cated the prophecy and ten others, to
render a book pretending to be a correct
version of Mother Ship ton salable. He
was detected and made to pay dearly fo
his deceit.

penniless, homeless colored" woman, was

Scharf yesterday to await sme action by

it is absolutely indecent for her to-appear

The various truck farms near this
city are said to be looking very fine;
Thus early green peas and new Irish po

Magistrate's Court-
Annie Baker, colored, was arraigned
this morning before Justice Millis on the
charge of assault and battery upon the
person of Annie Howard, colored. After
hearing the evidence in the case judgment
was suspended upon payment of costs.
The same defendant was then arraigned
by the same plaintiff upon a peace war
rant. Judgment of the Court in this in
stance was that defendant furnish bond in
the sum of $25 for sixty days to keep the
peace. .
- Mrs. Jarley g Wax Figures.
As has been before announced in the
Review, quite a number of ladies and
gentlemen hav Mrs. Jarley's Wax Fig
ures in preparation and will present
them at the Opera House on Easter
Tuesday. Mr. Berry Gleaves has con
sen ted to recite several choice selections
and Mrs Daniel Kahnweiler has signified
her willingness to render two or three
favorite songs . The Quartette Club have
also expressed their willingness to assist
in making the eveniDg one of rare enjoy
ment. The proceeds of the entertainment
will be devoted to St. John's church.

Knife, also Table Cutlery, at Jacobi's

The American Union Lines.
The fact that Mr. Robert Morton, an
agent for the American Uniou Telegraph
Company, was in the city a few days
since, was duly noted. Mr. Morton's stay
here was necessarily short and but little
relative to his visit has transpired. We
learn, however, that thg lines of the
American Union Company will certaur
y be here about the first of June, thus
confirming what Mr. Bates, the General
Superintendent, told the Editor cf this
paper at tbe Company's effice in New
York. We understand that the lines wil
be working, to Richmond about the first
of April and that then the work will be
pushed in this direction and towards Ral
eigh and Charlotte simultaneously.

Meeting at the Produce Exchange
tMs If ternonn- Views of Our Mer
chants in Begard to 1he Sale.
i In accordance with a ros iest cf the
presiding officers of the Chamber of Com
raemerce and Produce Exchange in this
city a meeting of the two Ixxlies, together
with the members of the Boar l of Trade
and business me-n generally of the city,
was held at the rooms of tho Produce Ex
change this afternoon At 4 o'clock to
consult as to tbe propped stile of the W.
N. C. U. R. : ,
! Upon motion of Mr. C. II. Kobii sin,
President of the Produce Exchange, Mr.
A. H. VanBokkelen wa3 called to the
Chair. The . meeting was then further
organized by requesting Mr. T. Calhoun
James to pet as SeereTary, Mr X ah
Bokkeien, up u tiking tbe Chtir, ttattd
that Mr. Dulirutz Cutlar, who had just
arrived from Raleigh was present and
would please make a statement
in regard to the feeling ai d sentiment
among the legislators or those with
whom he conversed upon tho subject cf
the sale of the Western Road. Mr.
Cutlar thereupon made a clear and suc
cinct statement in regard to the senti
ment of those with whom he talked in
Raleigh, which left the impression that
the sale of the road upon some terms or
other was a foregone conclusion. Mr.
Cutlar stated further that there, was some
little interest or anxiety manifested
as to what the people iu this city
desired. Mr. C. staled also that "there
were a great many railroad men in Raleigh
who manifested a deep interest in a rail
road charter which was granted by the
State in 18G8 9 to build a road from
Statesville to Danville. After Mr. Cut
lar's statement there was a general dis
cussiou upon the subject, participated in
Kit fnl Wm T. ToPncaof orVirt o rToaol
ujr ..-.w-
nimseii in iavor oi inis saie,
Mr. VanBokkelen in the chair- made a
few remarks regretting the inability of
Wilmington to purchase the road, but
hoped to off jr a good port as an outlet
for the trade, no matter who becafhe the
purchasers. Mr. N. Jacobi opposed the
sale. Col. Roger Moore was opposed to
the undue haste which bad charac
terized tpe Governor's movements in
regard to the sale. Mr. Thomas
E. Bond opposed the sale and
made a very clear and comprehensive
statement of the objects and intentions of
the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad as it ap
peared to hi m in their aggressive move
ments towards tapping, and controling
the connections in tha West by the West
ern North Carolina Rail Rai.
! Col. Roger Moore ,made a speech which
seemed to meet with the views of a good
many of the gentlemen present. Col.
Moore, is his usnal plain and candid man
ner, stated that if the road must bo sold
let it be done after due deliberation and
advertisement. ' lie referred to the fact
that the very men. who now proposed the
sale cf the road add had circulated
printed pamphlets and letters urging such
action were among tho men who , in
August, 1875, advised the State to pur
chase ysaid road to kocp it out of
hostile hands,' but who now tried to
throw a sop to Eastern North Carolina by
LUgg?sting tho working of a few convict
hands to cut ditches and giving the WeS;
ern people a sop abcut the building of
the Western Inaanp Asylum.
A resolution was then offered by Mr.
A. H. VanBokkelen, expressing the sen
timent of this meetiogj which was gencri
erally discussed, without any definite ac
tion, when a resolution of similar import
was offered by Mr. W mi Ca'der.
Col. Wm. L. Delicsiet then moved that
a ! committee be appointed by the Chair
to draught a resolution expressing tbe
sentiments of the meeting atd of the citi
zens gecerally iu regard to the sale of
the road, and that saiidl committee report
