THE LADIES FESTIVAL AND CHARADES.
During the session ot the court the
visitors and citizens were most delight-
Kliif.y entertained by the ladies ot the
town witn a series of performances at the
Baptist church, gotten up by the ladies
ot this church lor the purpose of raising
funds to secure a, pastor to fill the pui
pt, which has been vacant lor several
months. We attended, of course and
was agreeably surprised at the highly
successiul rendition of the well-selected
dramatic plays. In "Lord Dundrenry's

grace and ease, in the rendition ot their
diffcreut parts that indicated a talent
remarkable in amateurs, t

We almost forgot to mention that on
Monday night a vouiig lady in making
her delut became so excited , that she
upset a kerosene lamp on the piano,
which caused' a general consternation
in the audience, but no ; damage was
done.and order and ouiet restored. The
ierioi mance was tuimuuuu w 1
without
iurther interruption.
THE SPRING FIGHTS ....
commenced ou Monday evening, , the
bloodiest ot which was reported m the
News in its Tuesday's is?ue." This was
a saiaU affair though, . however, as the
five men engaged in it only received a
black eye each, and a small size indict
ment tor an aff ray. Tuesday, the bellig-
erepts became, more obstreperous . and
the damage more severe.
The first in order was a -
SHOOTING' CASE, "
in which a small boy sustained a pain
ful, though not serious injury from the
effects of a pistol shot in the hands of a
drunken man bv the name of R.- R.
King. Fiom , the evidence . before the
Magistrate's Court, it was shown that
King, thoroughly under the influence of
the most miserable, whiskey that ever
went down a man's throat, can.ie to a
sudden conclusion" that he. must shoot
simiebodv' before he left town, and in
accoruance vnu lui yu
drew his pistol from his pocket and
fired into a large' browd of horse-swap
pets. Tiie ball passed through . -the
cniwdin the street, through an r open
gate, and lodj
little - boy in
store. , Jiing .was, arrested, committed
to jail,' and" On ' Wednesday morning
tried-before a Magifetrate's- Court,' and
bound oyer, to the.Superjor Court iQ.tbe
sum of $706, W. A. Smith bee ;ining his
suret.
The second in order was a serious
STABBING CASE, -
in which a man bv the name of Jas." A.
Orrell was the principal. -The stabbing
occured a lew miles lrom bmithneld.
Both ot the parties were in town on
friendly terhis during the' day, and left 1
near night fall lev Aone in company
together. -
Dr. Jas. A. Rose wa$, called to see the
wounded man, and at our request
furnifched us with the lollo wing brief or
the case - 1 K ' ''
'This Vinson, and Jas. A. Orrell, his
brot her-in -lav,: had a quarrel on their
way home from Court. Orrell told
Lson i he would get off ot that horse
he would whip hiui .very quick, -;&c.,"
Vinson accommoqateU; him at once.
They lought and tuiseled in the dark
from 10 to 20 jards.' in5 the woods
when they quit by" mutual agreement,
and while standing on the "battle ground
without any warning, Orrell lumped at
Vinson and stabbed, him- wound 2 to
3 inches long, tbe knife passing in 3
inches below, and to the- right of tne
right ' nipple.;. betwfcei"' the eight and
ninth rib, and deep into the substance
f the lung. I Bew'ed up"tbe wound.
Vinson suffers much pain and difficulty
0r breathing. His condition is' critical
and very likely will prove fatal." ,
. Orrell was arrested early Wednesday
'morning, by Deputy Sheriff Kennedy,
and. upon' a nreliminarv examination.
was required to give bond in the1 sum
ot $7,000. The bond had not -been
gve
Wee
ven up to tue Hour or our leaving
ednesday evening, and he was doubt-
ess committed to jail in default of bail.
The third and last in order, (for we
were afraid to remain any longer) was a
MURDER CASE, ; r
in which a young colored woman is
charged with the murder of her infant
child. The .cifctiiu'stancesas reported
to us by the principal witness in the
case, Mr. John A. Mitchener. upon
whose plantationthq 'alleged. deed.. was
committed, ' are as follows: Harriet
Boon, a young colored woman, gave
birth to a child on Monday night,
which was reported still-born. But, as
the woman was careful to secrete her-
eit and wa3 alone when the child was
born, suspicions of foul play arose and.
upon examination, it was discovered
that the child's head and breast Was
broken in and its neck broken.
fhe Coroner, Dr. J. G. Rose, having
summoned a Jury, repaired to the scene
of the outrage Wednesday evening, but
as yet, we have not heard the result ol
the investigation. , i . ,
FARMING OPERATIONS.
We were pleased to see that the far
mers of Johnston were hard, at work,
and from what we saw on the roads
we traveled, were far. advanced consid
ering the' seasons. " Johnston has sonie
first-class farmers, chief ' among whom
is Col. A. J. Heath, -who never fails to
averages 400 lb. b-ile' to the acre. ' On
the Cypress farm, one of the prettiest
in the county, and owned""lv Messrs.
Wilson '-,nd Waddell, we ?f?unted 10
plows, all drawn -by tine likely mules,
turning over the ground into cotton
beds. This farm without the aid ot
fertilizers, produces easily a bale to the
acre. . ... ' : -; -.-'' .
Cotton and turpentine is the market

fevers the greatest malady, and temper
ance societies, churches and pastors its
GENERAL ITEMS.
l he tiorse iiwappeis, tnough not as
umerous, are more active if possible
than the Louisburg Cedar-Hul-ers.
One man informed us that he made
eleven swap3 iu twenty-five minutes and
changed saddles every time. Most ot
the swaps, were on an even busis, and
only in one instance did we see boot te-
requued. In this case a horse was ex
changed for a mule and a dilapidated
(shad) fish net given as boot to make
the trade even.
Smithfield has a good hotel, consid-
ering the fact that it is an iniand : town
and tar removed from market. Messrs.
Benton and Giice are the proprietors
and we found them to be clever, polite
gentlemen. , -, ; , . ,'
Se'lma. lour miles.' from Smithfield,
Princeton, formerly Boon Hill iutl Claj-
ton, are the other towns in the county,
and all located on the Noith 'Carolina
Railroad. These towns exhibit more
life and enterprise than Smithfield and
are rapidly. building up.
Henderson and the State Fair.
We published yesterday a letter fiom
Col,. S. S, Cooper, President of the Ilen-
derson Agricultural Society, offering the
Fair Grounds, and to raise the requisite
amount, provided the next State Fairjs
neid there.
, . .. . ... 1 . . 1
The Henderson Tribune, alter arguing
to shw tht the Fair cught to be held
in Raleigh, says:
lint it the Fair is to be moved, we
nut in onr petition anu usiv mooa in
authority to help move it to neuueisou
f - .. . . . 11 .1
To offer proof that Henderson is -.the,
Lext best place to Raleigh would be
like proving a white horse is white, or
that two and two make lour, lor it is
self-evident. For eighteen years Ueu
derson has kept her Fair, and whether
she' gets the btatej Fair or.not, she will
have hers. " ' '
" We had sonie '.of Ihes leaders ot the
Henderson Fair to call at our olhce aud
authori ie us to offer the giounUa aud
ten thousand dollars to have the fotate
Fair at this place. We do not mean to

Water Works. What ha3 become
of the proposed "Water W6rks Compa
ny ? In asking this question the second
time we do not mean ; to be anxiously
persistent, but as it is a matter that so.
nearly concerns every citizen of Ralejgh
we feel compelled, to" agitate the subject.
What we know about water wprks can
be told in a very short f pace,' but we
offtjr isome suggestions wjiich if even
wortbless may draw somebody out who
may offer some more valuable. , ; '',
'' A I 'few, evenings " since while oh.
a visit to the' residence of". Major
R. Sj Tucker, on Hillsboro street, we
were" shown by that, gentleman, the,
modus Iperpndi by which his .building
and premises are supplied with water
from springs in a remote part of his
plantationJTn the tower of his building
is located atauk capable ot containing
seven thousand gallons of water.' This
tank is underneath the Hoof ol the tower
above the ceiling cf the rooms-below'
and is therefore obscured from view. It,
is supplied with water, lrom several
springs,- the springs the streams of
which are concentrated and made to flow
in an aqueduct prepared for the purposed
Nine teet below- the aqueduct- is
. A small Hydraulic Ram, which forces
the water a distance of twelve hundred
and fifty feet on a straight line and then
a perpendicular of oue hundred and
eighty feet to the , tank in the tower,
at the rate of one gallon per minute.
The surplus water in the tank is con
veyed by a pipe and gutter, first to the
aquarium and lountain in the yard,
(soon to be erected) thence to a large
tank in the rear, yard s to be used for
stock and other purposes ; the surplus
lrom this tank is then conveyed by a
bund ditch to the branch lrom whence
it comes. ' -
Every room and c!oset in the build-.
ing,, path rooms,' kitchen1 and (Cook
rooms are supplied lrom the tank bv
pipes and this f amily finds it impossible
to utilize one-half of the supply. .The
tank in the yard will be made "large
enough to contain enough water lor
the protection, not "only to himself, but
the entire neighborhood in case of fire.
We speak of this private enterprise,
which we learn from Maj. Tucker, was
completed at comparatively a small
cost, merely to show if as much good
can be effected by one individual why
may not a company be formed to pro
ject the same plan upon a more extend---
ed scale
The same . springs that supply the
aquaduct of Maj. Tucker, will in our
opinion, be adequate for the city. A
pond cau be erected near Harrington
street,; within the city limits and , w ater
thrown to any and all parts ot the city
oy means ot pipes with an engine.
This "seems to ' us a good piau.
both in point of economy and conven
ience, especiallv as several of the North
ern cities- hav louw'd it a -matted ' bi
economy to doj away with reservoirs,
fec., and much "better water furnished.
As above stated, we. offer these sug
gestions for what they aie worth, and if
nothing else is accomplished, to keep
this important matter alive.
