The victim was not identified and the body has been consigned to the tomb If was kepi for nearly two weeks and thousands of people saw it and although many thoueln they could idemity it yet everyjuisiatiee they were proved tQ have been mistaken." The most skilful detectives in the country are absolute ly at fault. The girl was young, attrac- liveand ysrlu-'us. She was murdered near-a populous crty. within a stone's throw of several houses, earl v iu the night,' and yet there is. absolutely no clue to the . identify of either thn murderer or the victim.

Fully Explained. There is nothing the matter with the fire alarm. Tne alarm was sent out properly yesterday from box 35, corner of Market and Eighth streets. Soon after an alarm was sent out from box 25, corner of Seventh and Harnett streets, which was entirely a mistake. The party having the key to the latter box in charge, hearing the cry of fire and seeing great comfusion in the street, thought that the peril was near by and ran and turned in the alarm. The mistake was soon discovered, but jt was too late to mend the matter, A Confederate Monument. Hon A. M. Waddell has been invit ed to deliver the oration at the unveiling of the monument at Stuithfieid, John son county, on May 10th. in memory of the Confederate dead who lost their lives at the battle of Bentonsyilie, in 1865. Senator, Vance had been invited to deliver the oration on that occasion, but owing to other engagements has been obliged to decline. It is probable that Col. Waddell will accept tho invi tation. 8alo ol iceal Estate. Included yesterday in our aggregate ot real estate sales were three lots.' known as the Morse lots, eoli by Messrs S. P.
