A Happy New Year! Do not forget that this is 1880. New York dry goods market con tinues steady and firm. '1 here are eighteen cases of small pox reported in Washington City. Father Ryan's volume of poerps has beeu published at Mobile, Ala bama. Gen. Hatch is safe, no doubt, but tbe prospect is very good for an Iu dian war.

NO. 85. Kx-Gov. Curtin, of Pennsylvania, thinks Grant will be nominated. Rep resentative Cox, of New York, does not think be will be the man. He says if Blame is nominated he thinks Hancock will be the man, but it de pends on what Gov. Seymour may do. .He-is reported in the Waahing- ton Post as ssytug: "All. that I have said is based upon the idea that he will never accept. That has been my impression from a personal knowl edee of his wishes. But some revelations from recent interviews indicate that he might be constrained to accept. If so, nothing can stand iu the way of his suc cess." Of Graut he has correct views no doubt. He said: "His administration here was so reckless, the reins were held with such an -unsteady baud, that nothing but his splendid career and success as a General could have saved it from universal obloquy. All that he ever said during Johnsou's administration about the treatment of the South was thoroughly ignored when he became Chief Magistrate. His modes were military and not civic; therefore nobody wondered at his use of bay op ets in controlling certain administra tions of State affairs in the South against the general judgment." The firmness of Gov. Garcelon has triumphed. The arms have been shipped from Bangor and the insur rectionists did not rise up in their might to prevent it. Tho Governor says he has force enough to proteot tbe Legislature, and that if any dis turbance occurred at Augusta he will order the Legislature to meet else where. Before submitting any ques tions to the Supreme Court he would take further legal advice from his friends. Garcelon is said to be about seventy years of age and he evi dently means business. The law in Maine upon which ex Senator Morrill bases his proposition to Gov. Garcelon to get the opinion of the Supreme Court of the State, reads as follows: 'Each branch of the L-gislature, as well as the Governor and Council, shall have hutiioiity to require th opinions of tbe jus tiers of tbe Supreme Judicial Court upon important questions of taw and upon solcm u occasions " Large crowds are flocking to Menlo Park daily to witness the experi ments with Edison's electric light. The solution seems to be satisfac tary, and congratulations are being 8howereJ upon the great discoverer. But the gas men are still hopeful; they say that gas will still have to be used. N The news from tbe North Carolina immigrants at Green Castle, Indiana, is very favorable. They are greatly delighted with tbe change, are get ting good wages, &c Such at any rate is the character of the dispatch sent from Cincinnati on the 29th of December. During the first quarter of 1879 there were 7,571 deaths in New York; during the second quarter, 6,576; da ring the third quarter, 7,729; during the last, up to Dec 27, 6,288 total 28,165. Tbe births amounted to 25, 332, marriages 8,385, still born 2,197. One of the shares of the Edison Electrio Light Company, par value $100, has just sold in New York for $3,500. Owners now ask $5,000. Ten days ago they were worth $1,000. This tells the . story, gas or no gas. The weather in Paris has. been ex tremely severe for. f oar weeks. The streets became almost impassable be cause of the snow and ice. Daring a part of the time the thermometer stood at eight.degrees below zero. Gov. Emory will not be reappoint ed Governor of Ulah.

The case of the State vs. Seth Adams, co lored.- for the murder of his son. was beard yesterday before Esquire Brinson.

Wilmington Presbyterian: At a "call meeting" of Concord Presbytery, held at Mooresville, N. C, Dec. 20th, tbe pastoral relation between Rev. P. T. Penick and Prospect Church was dissolved.

J. 8. Black was requested to serve the church in future. Mr. Black asked time for consideration. On the night of the 26th inst., the same congregation held a Dime Party. Tbe sum or $49 05 was realized. A colored woman, wife of Wil lis Jones, shoemaker at Charlotte, was burned to a crisp by a kerosene accident. Tbe Observer says she was filling a lamp, holding a lighted wick in one hand and the oil can in the other. In some way unex plained the flame was communicated to the lamp, which exploded, covering her with the burning fluid. She rushed frantically to the bed in which her baby was asleep and attempted to smother the flames with the bed clothes. A negro man who entered at this moment, seeing the h peril in which the child w as placed, attempted to "get her away from the bed.' She appeared to see the danger herself and ran out into the yard. Her clothes were torn off as speedily as possible, but not before her ' body had been burned to a crisp, producing death in a few hours. - - Peter Rea, colored, was killed in Mecklenburg county by Zeke Marshall, also colored. The Charlotte Observer says: Tbe testimony shows that Rea went to Cald well's house, and immediately began to make violent threats against Marshall- The two men quarreled for some time, and finally retired to another room in the house. Rea then advanced upon his adversary with his hand in his hip pocket, when Marshall gathered an old army musket and fired at him, the entire load of Bquirrel shot taking effect in Rea's bowels. He ran out of tbe house, crying that , he was killed, and his assailant immediately fled. Rea died that night, and nothing more was heard of his slayer until Saturday afternoon, when he came into the city and surrendered himself to the Sheriff. He was sent to jail to await trial at the next term of the Superior Court. Charlotte Observer: The cock ing main between Alamance and' Mecklen burg counties closed Friday evening with a victory for Alamance, the score at the end of the main standing 10 to 8. The fight was exceedingly interesting to those who are fond of tbe sport, and drew quite a crowd, especially on Christmas day. Rev. Mr. McPberson and wife have been conducting a series of religious meetings at Calvary Methodist church since Christ mas day. The meetings have beeu well attended and are increasing in interest. Mr. Sid Holt has returned to Ala mance, not much worsted by -the chicken fight; in fact, very much better off finan cially. Charlotte happily passed through Christmas week without even an alarm of fire, a very unusual occurrence.
