It Bffeeli-Oplelou of n Fair! Minded Man. 1 - Charlotte Observer.! Me. Editor: In a timely editorial which appeared in a recent issue of your paper, you enlarged upon the bad effects of,the "Usury Law" upou the prosperity of the city and State. I have been of those who thought that its operations would not be so disas trous to the general prosperity as many had supposed. But alter quiet )y observing the workings of the law, l ain fully convinced ; that : nothing has occurred since the great calami ties incident to the war between the States,; of ' so damaging and blighting a character to the good and prosperity ; of this city and country, as the -passage of this act. The "people did not ask for its en actment. In fact, xip to the time of its going into effect, the . citizens of this city and of the whole State were uniformly prosperous and repairing rapidly the great damages sustained by the war. The recuperation of the people was almost miraculous. ' This city bad been increasing in trade, pop ulation aud general thrift, in a re markable degree. But what do we tind now? Its trade languishing ; an uncertain feeling in the minds of all business men as to the future; a want of life and spirit in- all enterprises; a gloomy, foreboding, ,"; discouraging outlook. Money, the arterial blood of all business and enterprise, gradually, flowing into more lucrative channels in other States, jWhe eits employment is not fettered by-bppressivc and un just laws. The one cannot borrow at a rate they are willing to pay, because f the heavy penalties. The money lender cannot take the risk, as he would be, in the eyes of the law, a criminal, and liable to a forfeiture of, double the amount loaned, besides an iudictment. This infamous law is a relic of the dark, ages; its ' re-enactment now is a retrograde movement, carrying in its train untold evils. We want a wise and intelligent adminis tration of public affairs. No political gambling at the expense of the best interests of the people and country. Business. Fire at Gen. Lee's Residence. On Tuesday afternoon last the dwelling house on the Rafens worth estate caught fire from a defective hearth, but the flames " .were extin guished before damage had been oc casioned. Gen. W.' II. F.

Standback found upon his plan tation in Richmond county, near Pee Dee River, two largeearthea pots which he in tends to send to the Mecklenburg Centen nial asrelics of'a'by-gone age. It seems that the recent floods in that section washed away a considerable portion of the land bordering "upon the river, " and these pots were found quite close together, about ten feet below the former surface. One of the articles will contain about a bushel and the other about half a bushel. They are very smooth and appear to have been well and neatly made, and are doubtless remnants of an Indian camp or settlemeat of long ago. There is certainly nothing modern in their appearance their peculiar make never hav ing been witnessed in this section before. It is supposed that they are probably about one hundred or more yeara old. They are great curiosities and very fit specimens for exhibition at the Mecklenburg Centennial.
