For the South Atlantic States, rising ba rometer, northwest winds backing to south westerly, and generally cooler, clear or clearing weather. An Unsuccessful Attempt to "Bull dose" a Ball-Doe. Two prominent members of the Fox Club were on the road a short distance be low this city, a few days ago, each with quite a large pack of hounds in his train, when they came across two colored hunters with their guns, who seemed to be very forcibly struck by the number of dogs ac companying the fox hunters. They in dulged in a great deal of comment on the subject, referring to the number of bounds their masters, before "freedom," were wont to take with them in tbe merry chases of those days, and finally one of them begged our friends to give him one of the dogs. It appears that a very fierce bull-dog, belong ing to a certain butcher in this city, had taken up with the hounds and was with them on this occasion, and this animal had attracted the particular attention of the man who had preferred -the request. The reply to the application was that he could have this dog if he could take him. The darkey laid down his gun, watched his chance, and finally made a dash at the ani mal and seized him by the hind legs, at which the dog gave a sudden twist and speedily had his teeth hi the man's arm and his mouth full of his coat sleeve. After some effort on the part of the two colored men together, the grip of the dog was finally eosened, when the party who bad first seized him swung him around, holding still to his hind legs, until the continued mo mentum had addled him somewhat, and then he was thrown flat upon his back and his legs firmly tied with a pair of suspen ders hastily taken from the man's panta- oons. The fox hunters then rode on, thinking the dog was conquered and the fun over, but had progressed but a short dis tance when they were startled by a hoarse bark and a mighty scampering among tbe thick bushes, followed by the appearance of the bull-dog with the darkey's suspenders dangling at his heels. It is thought more than probable that those two men will never undertake to grapple with a bull-dog again, unless they are better acquainted with his strength and disposition. Mortuary. The following statistics are gleaned from the report of Dr. J. 0. Walker, Superin tendent of Health, giving the number of deaths in this city for the month of Novem ber. Tin; percentage of whites is unusu ally large. Attention is directed to the sin gular coincidence in numbers, those of the white and colored being tbe same in every particular. We at first thought there must be some mistake, but are assured by Dr. Walker that the report as it appears is per fectly correct : White Nine males, 10 females; 9 adults, 10 children. Total 19. Colored Nine male, 10 females; 9 adults, 10 children. Total 19. Total white and colored, 88. The percentage among the colored people is generally considerably the largest. The Interments in Oakdale Cemetery du ring the week just closed numbered three. the aces of the parties being 11 months, 27 years and 77 years, respectively. Bellevue Cemetery reports one intermen a child for the past week. There were six interments reported for Pine Forest (colored) Cemetery for the week, of which one was an adult and five were children. Another Case of Drowning. A few nights since two colored men, Da vid Wingate and Sclpio Bryant, started from this city to the Clarendon rice planta tion, the property of Col. S. L. Fremont, about five miles below this city, where Wingate was employed, when, in attempt ing to cross the channel, somewhere in the neighborhood of the old hospital, at Mt. Hersab, the small boat in which they had embarked was accidentally capsized. Bry ant clung to the boat, and was subsequently rescued, but Wingate attempted to reach the shore, and, being burthened with cloth ing and a heavy pah of boots, sank before reaching it and was drowned. He had been paid about sixty dollars that day by his employer, a good portion of which lie apeuk ueiuie icatiug iue and he is said to have been some what under the influence of whiskey, which, no doubt, was one cause of the un fortunate accident which cost him his life. Deceased was about 26 or 27 years of age, and leaves a wife, but no children: His bodv had not been recovered at last ac counts. ns-avw Un ma liable matter. The following is the unbailable matter remaining in the city post office at this date: V Mrs. Allda M. Bell, Newport, N. C. ; Mrs. Penny Stone, Chatham county, N. C. ; B. T. Bardin, Tar Bluff, N.

The body of Henry Galloway, 'the col ored man who was drowned in the surf off Middle Sound on Wednesday last, was found drifted ashore on the beacb, near where it went down, on Friday morning.

DECEMBER 7, 1879. At tbe city Hall. The Midgets seem to grow in popular' favor every day, as the increasing crowds in attendance at each succeeding levee well attest. The exhibitions yesterday were thronged with people. As in the case with all distinguished personages, everybody wants to know something about them, and perhaps the following concerning General Mite will prove interesting: When he was born he weighed only two and a half pounds, since which time he has not grown a particle except in bulk. He is now fifteen years old and weighs nine pounds. His father and mother are persons of an ordi nary size, Mr. E. F. Flynn, the father, weighing, oue hundred and sixty-five pounds. All the other children of this family are of tbe regular size, and some o them very much above. General Mite's sister, at ten days old, weighed thirteen pounds. A Friendly Salt Decided. The Legislature, during its last session. passed an act reducing the salary of our Judge of the Criminal Court, Hon. O. P. Meares, from $2,600, the amount stipulated in the act creating the office, to $2,000, and since April last be has been paid by the county st a rate corresponding with the latter amount. During the past week a friendly suit was made up by Judge Meares and the County Commissioners, to test the matter of the constitutionality of the act. On yesterday, when the question was sub mitted to His Honor, Judge Eure, in the Superior Court, Major D. J. Devane acting as attorney for Judge Meares, and Col. B. R. Moore for the county, a decision was rendered to the effect that the act was un constitutional, and that Judge Meares is entitled to his full salary as stipulated in the act creating tbe office.
