A large party of excursionists from the up-country wilLajgzfetkjg- morning by the regular paasanpsr train ef the Carolina Central Railway. We understand that when the train left Charlotte last evening, quite a number of people were on board from points beyond Charlotte, principally from along the line of the Richmond & Atlanta AteLiufcRoad. As the parties come at the express invi tation of the merchants and business men of tbe city, they will of course receive every attention at their hands, and their stay, whether it be long or short, we trust will be made a most agreeable one- The excursion is given' for the. purpose of developing more fully the community of interests heretofore existing between the Carolina, Georgia and (he port of Wil mington, and will doubtless effect much in that dlaeotioo. The tickets issued are good upon any passenger train of the Carolina Central Snttwey. the Xsteigb Augusta Air-Line Railroad, the Atlantic, Tennessee & Ohio Railroad, and the Western North Carolina Railroad, for fifteen days, from and after Oo(ober2tkh, lft9. iV Mtotfm-Kneiir icemen 1 to Sheriff Manning turned over to tne Coun ty Treasurer, on Monday, tbe handsome earn of $10,885, being the amount of taxes collected by him during the week previous Of this amount $10,000 goes to tbe special tW&; to pay off eld bonds, and $885 to the general iunu. ine aoove payment. iur me special fund very nearly wipes out the in debtedness entailed by the old bonds, the final consummation of which will result in quite a relief to the people of the county, WhO have that much less tax to pay next year.

OCTOBER 29, 1879. To-Day's indications. For the South Atlantic States, clear or partly cloudy weather, northerly to wester ly winda, miqg barometer, and a slight rise in temperature. The steady and rapid advance in prices for spirits of turpentine during the past eight or ten days has been a matter of sur prise to a great many, bnt hi seeking for a cause for this gratifying state of affairs in this branch of trade, it is not diAcalt to ar rive at the conclusion that the newsrd movement is in tbe main a healthy one, and is not so much due to the manipula tions of speculators as to the demand for this product of the piney woods from the various trades using it. The principal consumers of spirits are the manufacturers of varnishes, and so long as the trades ta king supplies from them continue to flour ish, as they do, the demand for spirits must continue to be a strong one. The railroad car builders, furniture, carriage and piano manufacturers, and house painters, are the chief customers of the varnish makers, and with the general revival of business all these trades are flourishing, particularly in the North and West. The onnortnnitv. r m however, may be a favorable one for spec ulators, for tbe increased consumption, car rying prices to their present figure, has been altogether domestic, leaving the for eign demand yet to be supplied. Rosins, tar and crude turpentine have all kept pace with the improvement in prices for spirits, the market closing firm all around yesterday at the advances obtained during the past week. How long prices will hold up or how much higher they may go, will of course' depend upon the demand , and the ability of producers to supply it. With regard to these it must be borne in mind that there can be no ex passion of their business be fore the spring opens, and until that time distillers must rely for their supply of cruse turpentine upon the crop of trees1 already "boxed," which, probably has not been greatly augmented during tbe past season. On the whole, the outlook is a favorable one for producers and distillers, aad we are glad to chronicle it. arsaw and Onslow Railroad Com pany. We are requested to state that a public meeting will beheld in the town of Burgaw on next Monday, the 3rd of November, in the interests of this new home measure for giving more life and increased prosperity to our people. -While tbecauntles of Pender snd Onslow are mainly interested in its success, Wilmington, and other counties contiguous to the proposed road are inte rested and ought to extend a helping hand. Tne leading friends of this laudable enter prise are determined, as we learn, to push it forward, and will work and bold public meeting to this end during this fall and winter. Committees to obtain subscrip tions are encouraged and an organization of tbe Company will be effected at no distant day. Let the measure be sustained, as it deserves, aad very soon manual labor will begin to construct the road-bed. ora.
