Charlotte Observer .TAx. J, - M. Kerns, who keeps a store in Long Creek township, was in the city yesterday and re ports that on Wednesday night his store was broken into and the cash drawer rob-. bed. Mr. Hugh Rhyne lost his cotton gin, in Paw Creek township, together with four bales of cotton, on Wednesday night, by fire; which was the result of careless ness. Mr. Allen Macaulay, a former resident of this city, and at one time a prominent merchant here, being a member of the firm of Stenhouse & Macaulay, died last Thursday, in Columbia, S, C. The statement that Mr. Charles J. Harris, of Cabarrus county, is the . only surviving citizen or this state who met ien. Iiaray- ette, on the. occasion of that dignitary s visit to Fayetleville, is incorrect. Dr. R. hi. Morrison, or Lincoln county, who is now about 89 years of age, met Gen. LaFayette on that occasion, and can even recollect a great deal of the conversation that' passed between himself and the General. Speaking of good' farming, another in stance was brought to our attention yester day as worthy of note. Mr. Henry Gross came to Mecklenburg county several years ago from Fort Jb airfield, Aroostock coumy, Maine, and bought 100 acres of Mecklen burg land, for $7.75 per acre. He works one horse, and his crop this year was 8. bales of cotton, aggregating 4,000 pounds lint, 100 bushels of wheat, , 200 bushels of oats, 250 bushels of corn and 125 bushels of sweet potatoes. The fast passenger train on the Air Line road, which left this city yesterday afternoon for Atlanta, with engineer Wall in the cab, run down and killed a little white child, near Jilack s sta-; tion. Section master Hardin was at work on the opposite side of the track from his house, and though he was aware of the ap proach of the train, he did not know his child was running towards where he was working. Its course led t directly across the railroad track, and the child stepped upon the track just in time to be knocked into the air by the engine. " The engineer had ho time to, do anything save to blow his whistle, and at that moment Mr. . Hardin looked up and saw his caua knocked from the track. The train was stopped, and it was found that the child was still alive, but so oaoiy nun uai us death was a matter of only a few minutes. It was about three years old. ' . - NE W ADVKTIKJtIBNTr. 8 H.

On Saturday night last, about 10 o'clock, some thief entered the rear door of the boarding house of Mrs. E. Al Dixon, on Chcsnut. between Third and Fourth streets, went up stairs and entered the room jointly occupied as a - sleeping apartment by four young gentlemen Messrs. John Hand, J. D. Mallard,. J, C. Hooper and J. S. Hooper but who at the time were at their re spective places of business. The thief broke open the .trunk of Mr. Hand and took therefrom a silver watch, and that of Mr. J. C. Hooper,, from which was ab stracted the sum of v $14.86. in money. A bureau drawer was also-opened, from which .was taken some few articles belonging to Mr. Mallard. It is supposed that the thief was the same one, who entered a lady's room is the same - building two or. three weeks ago, and robbed it of some articles. The time of the robbery; of ''Messrs. Hand and his companions is specified at about 10 o'clock for fhtf reason that Mr. H. was in his room shortly before 10. and again before 11, and on his first visit everything was all Tight. : ' .' '.

We have before us .the annual statement of tho Board of Commissioners for the county of New Hanover, for the fiscal year beginning the first day of December, 1883, and ending the 30th day of November, 1884, and it makes a splendid showing for the finances of our county and the manage ment of the same. In the General Fund the statement shows a balance on hand at the commencement of the year of $19,969.41, and, at the close of the year, o $21,502. 60. . In the School Fund there was a balance on hand at the commencement of -tho year of $9,428.05, and, it the close of the year,! of $11,988.71, the total disbursements amounting to $11,864.18. The current expenses proper of the coun ty for the'year amounted to $20,887.82, and to which is to be added the extra or special expenses demanded during the year, as fol lows: The county's proportional part of expenses for City Hospital, $1,606.07; the county's proportional part of expenses for Improvement to the same, $1,656.53; extra term of the Superior Court in, January, $1,110.90; State Exposition, $500; House . of Correction, $307.10. Making a grand total of $26,068.42. , .. . The current expenses of the county for 188$ amounted to $21,761.44; in , 1882 to $25,043.49; in, 1881 to $29,226.94; in 1880 to 424,735.61; in 1879 to $3146.95; in 1878 to $41,037.87; - v -V-: The bonded aeht due -March, ; 1887, is $6,100, to meet which there is on certificate of deposit, bearing 4 per cent.' interest,- the sum of $6,665. Of floating debt there is jnone ' ' i:' ' ' .' , '"' i Tncre is some misunderstanding as to the State tax for the past fiscal year. The law provideaf or a tax of 25 cents on the $100 valuation for the. current expenses of the government . This tax was no collected the past year. The county tax on property 37i cents) and the school tax on property 1(124 cents) was collected, as usual; the for mer for the current running expenses of the county and the latter to go to the school fund of the county, and not to go to Ra eigb. Then there is the county' tax : on poll, $1.12i, and the tax on poll for schools and poor, $1.12"r, which' also remain in the county for the benefit of the same, although authorized by the State, but to be paid over to the County Treasurer. . . j ; iDredKlns: In Tape Fear River, j . : The . contract, for .dredging in the Cape Fear river - below Wilmington stipulated that work shdnld commence on or before, the 15th day of December, 1884, and be com pleted during the fiscal year ending June 80th. 1885. The failure of the contractor" to comply with his - contract, hot having any dredging plant here to commence ope-' rations, has caused anxiety in this commu nity f as to the' 'progress: of the work for Which the appropriation was made July 5, 1884, and had been assigned . Upon inquiry, we, learn that the building of the rock dam extending from Zeke's Is land to the Big Marsh progresses rapidly, and all the rock contracted for will be de livered and placed in the dam within con tract time. H; ? ; ; - -j-;''V '," " We are also assured that Col. W. P; Craighill,- of the United States Engineer Corps, who ii in charge of the work, is fully alive to the position in which the con tractor's failure has placed the progress of the dredging and . will take such steps as willinsure the dredging ' of ; a, channel of sixteen feet depth at low water twenty feet at. high water--of suchjwidth as the. funds in hand : will admit, to Wilmington by July 1st, 1885, exhausting the' appro priation made July : oth, ana giving twenty feet at high water from Wilming ton to the ocean.
