A Mistaken i ITer, Yesterday a young lassie who could not have numbered a great many sum mers, but who" possibly had arrived at the tender and charming age of sweet six teen, was seen crying and sobbing as if her very heart would break, on the cor ner of Fourth and Chestnut streets, and was kindly approached by a gentleman who gently endeavored to render the distressed young damsel some assistance. But, he failed; his consolatory words fell on the heedless ears of the sobbing maid en and the kind-hearted gentlemen -was non-plussed. He now epitomizes the in terview as follows: I saw a maiden weeping drear, And in her eye was many a tear. I softly touched her marble brow "Maidem," I asked, "why weepest thou?" She answered not; yet still the tears Gently trickled into her ears. "Maiden," I said, "oh tell me now Your secret sorrow why weepest thouf' She gently raised her jioble head, And showed to me her wet cheeks, red. ' Why weepest thou?" I once more said. Replied 6he ia a voice of lead: "None of your business!" JL Pugnacious Strike. . Sol. Nixon, colored, one of the hands who had been employed by the "Water Works Company in digging the trench for the pipe-layiug, but who was one of the leaders of the strike yesterday morn ing, got himself into considerable diffi culty during the day. He went to where those who refused to strike were employed and used violent, abusive and threatening language to the "workmen, to such an ex tent that some of them signified an in tention to quit work, alleging as a rea son, that they were afraid he would put some of his threats into execution. Dr. Cloud, hearing of the disturbance, wen to Nixon and warned him to keep away from the hand3 and not disturb or inter fere with them in their work, when the latter turned upon him with the most villainous and abusive language at his command, adding threats to abuse. Up on this the doctor had a warrant issued for Nixon, who was arrested and taken before Justice Gardner for an examina tion, where he was ordered to give bond in the sum of $100 to keep the peace. At the trial Nixon tlaimed the privilege, to which he was entitled, of coaductlng his own case, and he conducted it in such a manner that he came very : near being a,Wvm1 ta ? fnr lasolence' to the sl WW j - WEDNESDAY.

Hailstorm at Whltovtile. ,- We learn thata Jerrifia bail storm visited Whiteville" and Vieinity'yester day. The wind blew'riolently, uprooting trees and overturning fences in its path. Hail stones of considerable size and quantities could have been gathered from the fields in the country around, at least, so says our informant. We .pre sume and hope, the cropt are not far enough advanced to have sustained any serious damage from the storm. Tbe Last or the Strike- The strike, which we alluded to yes terday, had but a brief existence indeed, and resulted in but little loss save to the trikers. This morning a much larger force than was employed before the strike, presented itself for employment, and among those who presented them selves were nearly all of those who struck yesterday. The force is now con siderably augmentedand the work is be ing push2d vigorously on Fourth street. There was a rumor that the former price $1 per day had been restored, but thi?, we learn, is not the fact, the hands working for eighty cents per daj. Furiher Arrangements lor llcmorlal Day. ; "We understand that the Ladies' Me morial Association of this city have selected Colonel B. R. Moore as the br ater for the occasion on Memorial Pay; and that that gentleman has accepted the invitation and will deliver the Memo rial address. We congratulate the ladies upon their, selection of . an orator. The choice, we think, is a good one, and Col Moore every way competent tou fill the position. An orator of no ordinary ca pacity, Col. Moore is at the same time one of the most erudite scholars for his age to be found in our midst. In addition tojthese necessary qualities, Col. JIoore has also the other quality of having been a Confederate soldier and having shed hi3 blood in the cause of the Confederacy. We also jearn that the Rev. Dr. A. ? A. Watson, Rector of St. James' Church, has been requested to act as Chaplain on the same occasion md that the reverend gentleman has signified his intention of accepting the invitation, and will 'serve the. ladies in that capacity' on Memorial Day. , , Caswell Memorial Association, j To all North Cd relinians y at JTome or Abroad: - ! The General Assembly of North Caro Una, at its late session, passed an act ap propriating five hundred dollars tobjiild a monument to the memory of : ur fir3t constitutional Governor, Richard Cas well. This sum is entirely ina dequate for the purpose, and was only intended to assist the patriotic citizens of the State in their efforts to build a monu ment commensurate with the great deeds done by him whose memory it is intended to perpetuate, We know that every true citizen of the State, adopted as well as native, will be glad to have the privilege of assisting in raising the legislative appropriation to a sum that will more nearly meet the requirements of the case. Therefore we have issued this circular. hoping that everyone whose eye it may reach will forward to the treasurer of the association any sum which may attest his admiration of the great, many and noble services to tne Old North State by that sterling patriot," intrepid soldier and wise statesman, whose memory we wish to hand down as a rich legacy to cur posterity. .;. ' -. " ; . ! -;- His Excellency Governor Jar vis is in full accord with this object, and has notified the Caswell . Memorial -Association of his intention to further its ends- Tbis association is permanently organ ized and now vigorously at work. The citizens of Lenoir are already' coming forward with their contributions. It is earnestly requested that the vice presidents of the Caswell Memorial Asso ciation will push the work: of collection, so that, if possible, the monument may be ready for the ceremonies of nnveiling on the fourth day of July next It is proposed to locate the monument on the public square, in the town of Kinston.
