Coroner Jury A JHyaierlous Death.
Coroner Hewlett on Sunday held an in
quest over the body of some unknown man
which was found in the water near Rat Is
land, a point on the Northeast branch of
the Cape Fear River, about five miles from
this place. The body was taken from Rat
Island to Rock Hill, about half a mile dis
tant, in order thai the jury might have a
better opportunity of viewing it.
v The deceased was white and seemed to
be agei between 40 and 50 years. His hair
was dark and slightly inclined to be gray.
His height was about medium, and beyord
this no other marks could be ascertained.
as the body bore the appearance of having
been in the water about two months, and
was in consequence very much mutilated.
Deceased was dressed in a blue broad
cloth frock coat and a vest of like material,
and steel-grey pants of a fine texture. . He
also had on a costly chinchilla overcoat and
in attire betrayed the' genteel and dressy
man or business or wealth. A bullet hole
about the size of aColt's revolver ball had
pierced his left breast in. the region of the
heart, and it ia supposed that the deceased
came to his death from a' pistol shot, and
must have been cast in the river at some
other point and his body have drifted to
Rat Island. -
The Coroner's jury, after ascertaining the
above facts, rendered a verdict that the de
ceased came to his death by a pistol shot in
the bands of some person unknown to the
jury. ' V ., - . . .. "
- The deceased had in his possession at the
time two valuable ringsi one plain gold and
the other with a stone seating, attached (os4
the inside surface of the latter was engraved
the words, Remember your promise dar
ling Ned, Aug. 14, '74,") also a double case
18 carat gold watch, No. 24612, manufac
tured by Richard & Co., and 1 gold collar
button.' ? l , ...
i There were no papers on the person of
the deceased by which his remains could
be definitely identified, and the whole affair
is shrouded in mystery. The body was in
terred ' near -the spot,, and thus, perhaps.
ends the last sad act in some gloomy and
mysterious tragedy.

- An election being entered into for dele

This Is a hill to enjoin ' defendants, who
are registrars and pollholders: of election
in the city' Of Wilmington, C, from
registering voters - or holding an election
under an amended Charter7 of that muni
cipality recently granted by the Legislature.
- The reason alleged by the complainants
why this remedy should be given is that the
law . amending the former charter of the
city t is unconstitutional first, . because,
the districts into which the city is divided'
are largely unequal in!-proportion, .though
they hove th'e same representation in the
City Count.., iwd that this is particularly
true of the colored population, ; which, iff
the third district by itself is larger than the
population of both the other districts; and,
second, because the amended charter pre
scribes other qualifications for voters than
are prescribed for voters in the Constitution
of the State, which are particularly oppres
sive to the colored people, '
Whatever may be said of the propriety
or impropriety of the legislation in ques
tion, we are of opinion " that .the remedy
sought is not a proper: one. There is no
special ! wrong . or danger, or irreparable
damage alleged to be done or threatened
to the. complainants fn person or property;
but the injury threatened is stated to be the
fact of great disorder and confusion which
would arise when there were two contend
ing bodies claiming to be the Common
Council and to be entitled to the govern
ment of. the city. The j remedy for this is
the writ of quo warranto, ! brought by those
out of possession of the office agiinst those
who hold it, and we know of no case where
a Court ot equity; lias lotertercd ; by
injunction to prevent ah election apojch
eenertu fusmnua ow iear. ctrrntnoirw

As is said by tle Suiweme Cout of
the
lai
Stae of Pennsylvania, in Smith vs.ic(
thy. 6th Equity Pennsylvania Kepo
power ought to be plain to authorize eourts
U forbid municipal elections'when oidered
by the. Legislature, and we may add hat
before they exercise it there should be some
threatened irreparable danger to the person
or property of those who seek the remedy.
If this election be an illegal, unconstitu
tional one, the remedy! by quo warranto is
complete. If it be a i legal one, 'and the
complaiaante or any ot the citizens are de
prived of their rights under the14thorl5th
Amendments, of the Constitution of the
United States, there is ample remedy in this
Court by indictment and otherwise under
the acts of May 30th, 1870, and February
28th, 1871, to punish the wrong done and to
restore the rights of. the parties.
We think the injuction must be refused.

Henderson is to have a banking

A burglary was foiled

Bishop Lyman, "of the Episcopal

day night at Henderson.
Mr. Jas. L. Carson,' formerly
Solicitor of the 7th Judicial District, died a
few days ago at his home in Rutherford-
ton.
' Rockingham Courier: Alex;
McLeod, who lives on Drowning creek in
this eounty, claims that : he has killed 96

The ;! State Grange"' adiourned

almost continuous session for three days.
Its- next annual session . will be held in

' Raleigh .News: Only one .Civil
Rights incident yesterday. A country dai
key came in town, heard: of it, got drunk,
became boisterous, fell into the hands of a'
colored policeman, was knocked down and
senseless with a billy, dragged to the guard
house, and when last heard from wanted
to find the Snigger" that told him the "Cib
ble Ritesf had passed. ' . , -
Raleign News : The civil case
of C. H. .Ward vs. Thomas L; Emry, from
Halifax county, removed to Warren Court,
was decided yesterday, at Warrenton, in
favor of the plaintiff, and damages to the
amount of $1,400 awarded. This suit grew
out of a: personal ; difficulty between the
parties, in which Mr. Emry broke the knee
pan of Mr. ; Ward, making him a cripple for
life. ! A .'-
The work of excavation has be
gun on the Masonic Temple at Raleigh, and
at an early day the fraternity will be sum
moned from the various lodees to assist in
the ceremony of laying the corner-stone. ' It
is confidently- expected that the largest
gathering of Masons will be in Raleigh, on.
that interesting occasion, that; was ever,
known before. , We learn from the 2fev
that the plan selected for the building is
unique in proportion, economical in cost,
yet beautiful and even magnificent in ap
pearance. It will be constructed of brown
stone. ; .When completed, this will doubtless
be the most beautiful structure in our capi
tol, and will reflect great credit Upon the
noble order for whose use it is designed. It
will occupy 52frfeet on Fayetteville street
and run hack 105 feet on Davie street, and
we must say the location is most admirable,
and no better site could possibly have been
selected. . Only the third floor will be used
as a hall,! the first and second floors being :
used as offices aad stores. - It is believed a
sufficient sum can be realized in ninety days
to complete the work. The entire cost of
the building will not exceed $50,000 or
$60,000, and surely ten thousand masons in
North Carolina can easily raise the amount. -

As a child, sister, wife, mother, friend and Cans

never uttered a murmar during her long aad of tear-:
painful sickness. Her beautiful external form and
features' were but faint shadows of her more beau
