WKLCO.HE TO HA TON. noustcr Heeilue in Columbia or the Cltiseus or the Whole State. Special dispatch to the News and Courier. Columbia, April 3. At a meeting of the citizens of Co lumbia, held to-day, it was deter mined to give Gov. Hampton a pub lic reception on his arrival here from Washington. Committees have been appointed to perfect all necessary ar rangements. A special train and committee of twenty-five will megt bim at Charlotte, Friday, and escort him to Columbia, arriving here at 3 p. m. the same day. All civic and military societies in the State, to gether with citizens en masse, are earnestly invited to meet at Columbia on Friday to welcome him upon his arrival. All railroads will arrange excursion tickets for that purpose. The invitation is signed by W. B. Stanly, F. W. McMaster and J. P. Southern, executive committee. It is intended to make the occasion one of the greatest ever known. The Louisiana Commission What the; President say. Washington, April 3. The Herald's special says: "The President has taken pains to impress his own views upon some of the Commissioners, and it appears that he has insisted with them on two points first, that it is impera tively necessary that they shall do tiieir work quickly; second, that in whatever they do they must take as the basis of their action the fact that the troops will be withdrawn and cannot, be allowed to interfere in the local affairs of the State. The Presi dent is quoted to day as saying to one of the commissioners that 'one thing is certain; the troops must be withdrawn from any interference or control over State property or the action of State authorities.' That, of course, settles the Louisiana ques tion." LombertOD, 1 Raleigh Observer. The wealthiest man in the town, and perhaps in the county, began business in this county with little or no capital and with a limited educa tion. He still adheres to the old fashioned ways of economy, industry and prudence. I am told that a very prominent business man here came to this place just after the war as a a ditcher by trade." He now buys hundreds of bales of cottou a day in the streets of the town where he so lately pursued his humble vocation. There are two steam saw-mills here, the only ones in the county. Our business men should try to get the lumbermen of Maine to bring their mills here and use up the pines which have been ruined in the turpentine business, and which may soon be destroyed by fire. It is too late now to loojLmournfully back on the past anoTwish that there had never been a barrel of turpentiue made in the State. It becomes us now to derive all the profit we can from our scarred and ruined pines. The so-called Indians are here in large numbers. They have Indian names such as Lowry, Oxendine, Locklear, fce. In personal appear ance ihey resemble the aborigines of our soil, but do not always have their noble qualities. The trees along the banks of Drowning creek are becom ing green and beautiful, gijng the town a gay appearance. Many years ago a canal was surveyed and marked out which was to connect the waters of Drowning creek with those of the Cape Fear, thirteen miles from here. Small steamers were to ply between this place and Wilmington. It was found that the canal would cost 200,000, and so the project was abandoned. As its name implies, it has always been famous on accouut of the number of persons who have found watery graves beneath its dark waves. Nivlac. Atoncnre D. Conway 'tells the fol lowingstory of an irate British judge: "The court room of Mr. Justice B. was the scene of rather an alarming outbnrstof feeling on the part of the judge. A case came before him pre The VOL. XX.-NO. 12. senting a combination of every kind of villainy in the defendant, and as the clear evidence came out the judge grew red and white, and was fairly boiling when the time came to charge the jury. 'Gentlemen of the jury,' said the judge, 'it is a perfectly clear case, and a most nefarious one. The defendant has unquestionably robbed the plaintiff, and has basely betrayed his daughter, and abandoned her in a foreign land. I I only wish it had been my daughter!' The lawyers gasped as this thunder rolled, and be held the irate judge shaking his fist acrosb the room at the cowering cai tiff." Wilkes County. Wilkesboro Witness. Lying between two vast ranges of mountains, its situation is delightful in the extreme our people as a con sequence are entirely exempt from the chilly blasts of the winter air, and in summer are free from the in fectious ills which so terribly afflict the inhabitants of malarious districts. The Yadkin valley passes from west to east through the heart of pur county, a distance of about 40 miles, and contains withot.' doubt some of the most fertile lands he State. Many tributary streams u. also spread in all directions over e country, the lands along which are equally as productive as those on tne river. We have presented to our view the pleasing variety of interest ing mountain scenery, interspersed with lovely fertile valleys: our sec tion of country presents superior in ducements to all those who may choose to cast their lot among our peo ple. j The State Fair. Raleigh Observer. A meeting of the Advisory Com mittee of the State Agricultural So ciety, was held at the Yarborough House last evening. Plans for the coming State Fair were perfected, and it was resolved that all the ener gy, ability and power at the com mand of the officers of the society and the committee should be unstint ingly applied to the work of making the fair of 1877 a complete success. We will state here that the President of the Society, Col. T. M. Holt, has loaned the Society $11,000 to put the same on sl nood foauilatlon. This looks like business, and we know all hands connected with the fair mean business. There is no such word as fail, when pluck, energy and capital is the motive power, lhererore we are alreadv assured of the success of the next fair; not a little success, but a great, grand and glorious euccess. Tarboro'. Raleigh Observer. It is a matter of congratulation in these hard times to be able to say that Tarboro' is still showing signs of progress and improvement. Dwelling houses reflt readily and upon very fair terms,; pnd several new buildings are in process of erection. Three of the streets are being extended, and a new and beautiful quarter of the town is thereby opened up to enter prise and improvement. Also at the other end jot' the town at the river bridge, the; line of sbanties known as "Grab Hill," and heretofore a hot bed of crime and vice, has been al most entirely demolished, and, in the hands, of intelligent and tax-paying citizens, Tarboro' promises to main tain its character for peace and quiet, which Republican government would have destroyed if it had continued much longer. A Large t orn Farmer and Land Owner. tN. C. Farmer. Senator Wm. Cox Mercer, of Mo yock, Currituck county, the Repre sentative inl the late General Assem bly of the First Senatorial District, is perhaps thej largest corn raiser in the State and a large land holder. His yearly crop of corn is about 4,000 barrels, and he owns 15,000 acres of valuable land in' the counties of his District. He commenced life on a $4 bill, borrowed money, and in fif teen years had made $125,000. His losses during the war on stock, ne groes, &c., Amounted to $70,000, and he has paid since the war $30,000 as security money. He has had from five to seven thousand dollars' worth of bankrupt notices served upon him in one week. Notwithstanding all these reverses, Senator Mercer is still a wealthy man. Got. Caswell's Grave. Goldsboro Messenger. The Raleigh News says: "Though the pages bf history embalm . the memory of Caswell as an incorrupti ble patriot, wise statesman and intre pid soldier, yet his grave, near Kin ston, is unmarked by a single stone or tablet, and this posterity is left to find shelter in a public charity." It is a State ahame that the grave of Richard Caswell has been so neglect ed and ignored. We had hoped that the Masonic fraternity of North Caro lina would have at least erected a modest tablet or monument to mark the spot where the honored remains of Caswell rest, but as there is no immediate prospect of this, we now call upon the good people of Lenoir, Greene, Wayne, J ones, Onslow, Du plin and Craven to make up a fund by contributions. Let the monu ment be erected. HHlsboro Recorder : We learn that preparations are nearly complete for the opening of a large Grange store at Kn ap oi neecis. Tne capital is ail subscribed. WILMINGTON, Spirits Turpentine. Weldon wants a bank. Greensboro is to have a tele graphic school. Corn is worth 70 cents a bushel in Wilkes county. Murphy, Cherokee county, is to have a daily mail. A mad dog was killed in Gran ville a few days ago. j The prospect of a good fruit crop in Orange is good. Ray & Millard's store, in Bun combe, was robbed recently. Hillsboro will soon have fonr additional stores for rent all new. The Episcopalians of Oxford "pounded" Rev. M. H. Vaughan on Easter eve. The crops in . Alamance are promising wheat, oats, tobacco plants aad fruit. The Torchlight says the Oxford people are just now devoting all their ener gies to jumping. The cultivation of various grasses is greatly on the increase in the Charlotte section. The colored Baptists of Gran ville held a Sunday school convention at Oxford last Sunday. Maj. J. W. Wilson, the newly elected President of the Western N. C. Railroad, is a native of Granville. The Torchlight is informed that we mt3c the correction about that 59 years resident. Put in "native" and you have it. Southern Home: The gas com panies of Charlotte now charge $5 per thou sand. Kerosene and candles are in de mand. Oxford Torchlight: The Wil mington Stab recently entered upon its tenth year. There is not a better daily in the South. Oxford Torchlight: Mr. James A. Robinson, of this place, has in his pos session a china tureen that was once the property of President Madison. It was a present to him. Oxford Torchlight: Mr. R. W. Lassiter, of this place, has in his possession a lock of Gen. Washington's hair. It was presented his son, Rev. Skinner Lassiter, by a grand-son of Alexander Hamilton. The Southern Home says we are bound to believe the genuineness of the Mecklenburg Declaration of Independence, "unless we believe that the people of this county have connived at a lie for one hun dred years." The sleepers. Jn-4im-BmList ourcn gave way last Saturday night and let a portion of the floor fall -in. Shelby Sunny-Side. The sleepers in our churches have not give way yet. "They 'r a' nod din." lorchUght. Biblical Recorder : Rev. J. P. Pritchard, now of Crockett, Texas, willre lurn to this State in a few weeks, to spend the remaining years of his life. He has never taken root in Texas soil and we are glad to have him back again. Torchlight: An exchange asks: "What is the danger of the hour ?" There are several. The one newspaper men have most to fear is the dange of getting "stuck" with one of these blamed counterfeit thou sand dollar notes now in circulation. Oxford Torchlight: Rumor has it that a proposition is on foot to establish at an early day at this place, a sassafras oil factory. We learn that it requires very lit tle capital to start such an enterprise. We hope the rumor may prove true as there is any quantity of sassafras here. Souther Home: The deed which conveys the Air-Line Railroad to the new purchasers was registered by Mr. Maxwell, last week. The ccunty of Mecklenburg, with its $200,000 investment, does not ap pear as one of the owners. When will the truth be known in regard to all the dark transactions about this road? Col. John A. Gilmer, State's proxy for the Western Railroad, has ap pointed the following gentleman as Direc tors for said road: Messrs. P. F. Duffy and C. P. Mendenhall, of Guilford; L. G. Haughton, of Chatham, and J. D. Mclver, of Moore. A meeting of the Directors is called to take place at Fayetteville to-day. ' Souttern Home: J. D. Palmer, of Charlotte, was arrested last weeK as a suDnosed accomplice of Thaddeus Davis, who robbed the store of Mr. Welfare, at Winston. Palmer gave up a watch which was identified by Mr. Welfare as his, and which he (Palmer) alleged that he bad bought from Davis, not knowing that it was stolen. Palmer was bound over in tne sum of $500 for his appearance at Court. Raleigh News: President Bat tle of the University will, at the request of representative farmers of the vicinity of Chapel Hill, on Saturday next, at 2 o'clock P. M... in the College Chapel, deliver a pub lic address on "The University, and Agri culture. The Professor of Agricultural Chemistry (Prof. Redd) has been invited to explain to the audience the nature of the investigations in agricultural matters pro posed to be made at the Agricultural Expe riment Station. Soutiern Home: Prof. E. F. Rockwell is engaged in gathering up all the facts that can now be known in regard to the life of Mr. P. S. Ney. Prof. Rockwell is indefatigable in his antiquarian re searches, and he has gathered many valua ble statistics in regard to the Presbyterian statistics of North Carolina. He is strong ly impressed with the belief that Mr. Ney was the real Marshal in Napoleon's grand army. The Hillsboro' Record says Mr. D. Cameron last year "on one pet piece of nine or ten acres, made a bale to the acre. This is equal to Mississippi." Yes, but it does not equal North Carolina. Turner Battle. Esq., of Edgecombe, averaged once over a bale to the acre in a field of over three hundred acres. As good or better .farming has been done in the same county, and in Pitt and other counties. As to "pet" farming, Mr. Littleberry Manning, of Hali fax, made some seven good-sized bags on three acres. He won the premium at the Weldon Fair. Thermometer Reeora.

A New importation. The schooner Mary Stetson, which arrived at this port yesterday from Navassa Island, had on board some seven or eight persons who are styled Arabs.

' CI O 1 x II -; APRIL 5, 1877. THB OPHRA HUUSE. f Dramatic Recitation by Wlss Manly and. nr. Haywood.. The lateness of the hour precludes such a notice as we would like to prepare of the delightful entertainment, given at the Opera House last evening, by Miss Manly and Mr. Haywood, of Raleigh. We are glad to be able to say, with entire candor and conscien tiousness, that the recitation was artistic and enjoyable to a most unexpected degree. Miss Manly has unquestioned histrionic gifts. But nineteen years of age, and with out any of the usual training that profes sional actresses have, she evinces consider able gifts, and proves herself a versatile and accomplished amateur. Her rendition of Poe's remarkable poem, the " Raven," was really admirable from beginning to end, and produced a marked impression upon the audience. She also performed the part of Belvidera, in Venice Preserved," with decided spirit and effectiveness. Her Widow Bedott was a capital specimen of character delineation. Miss Manly has a fine pres ence, and a bright, attractive face, that will make her friends among refined and cul tured people. Mr. Haywood is but eighteen, and knows nothing of the careful training of practised elocutionists. He has talents tfiat will enable him to secure some day the hearty commendation of severe theatrical critics. He needs age and discipline, but he has the stuff of an actor in him, as no one can doubt that saw him play the part of Jaffler or heard his capital recitation of that extremely diffi cult poem, Poe's "Bells." His delinea tion of Elder Sniffles was a success. We must mention that Miss Manly's rendering of the famous walking scene in Macbeth was impressive and artistic. Of course it would be unfair and unkind to compare her acting with Jauneschek or any great tragedienne, but she was, nevertheless, not without fa right conception of the difficult scene, and manifested cleverness in pre senting it. We'write.hurriedly,Jbut not without sin cerity. These two young candidates for popular favor are our people "native and to the manner born," and when they go before a North Carolina audience of ladies and gentlemen they have a right to expect both sympathy and applause. We again I "Tat 'hp' th nntn,tni-m I joyable, and we trust a large and apprecia tive audience will greet them this evening. They had a paying audience exceptionally good, considering the very inclement night. At the request of a number of delighted auditors they have consented to repeat the entertainment. Meeting; or the If ew Klver Canal Com pany. At a meeting of the Company, and citizens-generally, held at the Court House in Wilmington, on the 3rd inst, Henry Nutt was called to the Chair, and N. Jacobi was requested to act as Secretary. The Chairman explained the object bf the meeting and invited explanations and discussion, when Major Young, being called upon, addressed the meeting at some length in a very satisfactory manner, submitting the following plan for the consideration of the meeting: . . : ON THE FIRST PART,: That when the New River Canal Com pany shall have constructed eight (8) miles of the New River, and nine (9) miles of the Duplin Branch Canal, and said canals and water-way shall be 85 feet wide and give an unbroken depth of five feet below tide-level from the North East River at the Sand Hills to Burton's old field, upon same River; And that when said Canals shall be 'so located and constructed as to take off the overflow of the swamp and overflowed lands upon the North East River from Bannerman's Bridge to Burton's old field, the overflow from North Angola Bay, (Gum Swamp), so said lands can be re claimed for Agricultural purposes by small plantation ditches; And that when said Company shall secure to the citizens of Wilmington local rates of toll upon said trunk-line Canal and water way as constructed from Wilmington to a point of equal distance between Wilming ton and Norfolk; And when said Company shall mortgage to the citizens of Wilmington the seventeen miles of constructed Canal, and said Com pany's rights, franchises and privileges, and the half of all lands drained by said Company: ON THE SECOND PART : Then the citizens of Wilmington shall purchase from said Company $30,000 of said Company's ten year eight per cent, first mortgage bonds at par. When said canal shall be extended to New River, then the said citizens shall fur ther purchase $20,000 of said bonds; And when said canal is further extended to Pamlico Sound, said citizens shall fur ther purchase $10,000 of said bonds, ma king in all $60,000, and no more. Provided, however, that when said canal shall be completed to New River said citi zens shall release from mortgage the nine (9) miles of canal of the Duplin Branch Canal. Whereupon, it was moved by P. Heins berger that a committee of three be ap pointed by the Chair (at his leisure) to con sider aad act upon the proposition of Major Toung, and report to a future meeting of citizens, to be called by it when ready to report The meeting was addressed by Mr. Jacobi, Mr. Nutt and others, showing con clusively the importance of this work to the future prosperity of Wilmington, and secondarily to the State at large, first by overcoming to some extent the disasters to our railroad system, of late, and, secondly, as inaugurating a system of improving the waste swamp lands which abound in all the low part of the State, and which are known (if reclaimed) to be as fertile as any upon the face of the earth, and thus to utilize them in the interest of onr people. On motion, the meeting adjourned, sub ject to the call of the committee when ready to report. Signed N. Jacobi, Sec'y. The Chairman has appointed P. Heins- berger, Jacob Loeb and John Colville as the committee under Mr. Heinsberger's resolution. WHOLE NO. 3,015 More Good Shooting, kc Another Richmond in the Field. A gentleman of Rockingham, Richmond county, writing us under the non de plume of "Nimrod," says: "As you have given to the 'world and the rest of mankind' some of the exploits in killing deer by the Nim rods of Warren and Bladen counties, in this State, I propose that old Richmond county now 'rise and explain.' Mr. Elijah Watson, of this county, killed at one shot, with a double-barrel shot-gun, three fine bucks, and crippled the fourth with the other barrel as it ran off Mr. Ed wis Wade, also of this county, would have killed nine deer at three shots, if he had not failed to make the proper score the two last shots. He killed three deer the first shot, but fell short the two succeeding shots. One of bis neighbors, a Mr. Henry, was twice married and had eighteen children by each wife only 36 in all. Col. N tells me he has heard his father name and count them often."

Schenck's Standard Remedies. -The Stan dard remedies for all diseases of the lungs are Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup, Schenck's Sea Weed Tonie, and Schenck's Mandrake Pills, and if taken before the lungs are destroyed a speedy cure is ef fected. To these three medicines Dr. J. H. Schenck, of Philadelphia, owes his unrivalled success in the treatment of pulmonary diseases. The Pulmonic Syrup ripens the morbid matter in the lungs; nature throws it off by an easy expecto ration, for when the phlegm or matter is ripe a slight cough will throw it off, the patient has rest ana the lungs begin to heal. To enable the Pulmonic Syrup to do this Schenck's Mandrake Pills and Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic most be freely used to cleanse the stomach wad li ver. Scheme' s Mandrake Pills act en the liver, re moving all obstructions, relax the gall bladder, the bile starts freely, and the liver is soon relieved. Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic is a gentle stimulant and alterative; tile alkali of which it is composed mixes with the food and prevents souring. It as sists the digestion by toning up the stomach to a healthy condition, so that the food and Pulmonic Syrup will make good blood : then the lungs heal, and the patient will surely get weU if care is taken to prevent fresh cold. All who wish to consult Dr. Schenck, either per sonally or by letter, can do so at his principal office, comer Sixth and Arch Streets, Philadelphia, every Monday.
