The approaching municipal electicn
is beginning to excite interest. We hear
of several independent candidates for
the Mayoralty and about a thousand
for Commissioners in the various
Wards.
Tommy Uarrison, the, well known
Saloonist, has become the proprietor of
the "Green Front," Harnett street, for

cording to Gunter and Hoyle.
Trouserings this season are of unu

Organized. On Thursday evening,
Rev. R. II. Whitaker, of thi3 city,
organized' a council of . Friends of
Temperance at Wftke Forest, with thirty
charter 'members, to be known as the
Wake Forest College Council. Mr.
Whitaker is an indefatigable and zeal
ous worker in the temperance cause, and
we are glad to know that his labors are
being crowned with that success which
always, sooner or later, attends right
and perseverance. Mr. Whitaker's paper,
the Friend of Temperance, is a .most
useful and entertaining journal, and
lichly deserves the large and increasing
patronage it enjoys.
Anniversary Celebration of tiie
Hook and Ladder Company. Yester
day alternoon Hook and Ladder Com
pany,No. 1, of this city, celebrated their
tilth anniversary by parade, barbecue
and target practice. The Company
paraded the principal streets of the city
with their new a.d handsome truck,
presenting a fine appearance. Where the
parade was over, the Company marched
to Mordecai's Grove, where an old-time
barbecue was spread and enjoyed. After
the barbecue was digested, the target
practice beoan. After a good dea! of
powder being burnt, Mr. llilliard Bell
was declared the winner ol the hrst prize,
a beautiful chrorno entitled "Bed Time,"
presented by Chief Engineer ' Clawson.
His shots, in lelerence to the "bull's
eye," were, 6 inches 5$ and 2. M.
Thad Bosher came in second best, win
ning the second orize. a set of silver
spoons. His shots came within 7,

were intended.

winner of the third prize. His prowess
possessed him of a tin born.and his shots
are registered in the "arcnives oi
gravity" as being 8, 6f and 7 inches
of the bovine optic.
After the target practice was over,
the comnanv reformed and marched
back to the city, and upon halting in
front of Metropolitan llall, were aci

orratnlatnrv strain, in which the Com-
uanv received deserved compliments
The Mayor's speech was neat and ap-
oroDnate in every respect, i he Ciu
zen's Cornet Band furnished the music
for the occasion, and Well did they
acouit theuiselves,and their leader. Prof.
Henry Smith, may take great credit to
himself tor their rapid improvement.
The whole affair was a most pleasant
one, and we hope the Hook and Ladder
will celebrate many more such.

Please Remembeu. The following
in relation to. the Orphan Asylum at
Oxford, was handed to us with a request
to publish. Being anxious to do every
thing in our power to advance the
interest of this noble -institution we
cheerfully comply :
1. Children have some inalienable
rights. They are entitled to such op
portunities and privileges as will enable
them to grow up into wise, virtuous and
useful men and women.
2. Jails, penitentiaries and houses of
correction are more expensive to the
State than schools, shops and factories.
3. Laban was an oppressor of his poor,
relations. His spirit is still rife in the
earth. But every form ot labanism is a
wrong, a crime, a sin ; and the cupidity
of labanites ought to be restrained, by
public opinion, and by law.
4. Our laws permit rude parents to
exercise cruelty towards their own off
spring ; they permit young men to marry
widows in order to enslave their chiN
dren ; and they afford inadequate pro
tection to poor apprentices, and even to
wealthy wards.
5. A prosperous father may die at any
moment, and leave his children a prey
to the prevailing madness for money,
politely termed "demand for labor," and
labanism may hold them in oppressive,
but unmolested, servitude.
G. The Orphan Asylum at Oxlord, es
tablished by the Grand Lodge of North
Carolina, feeds, clothes and teaches in
digent orphans between the ages of
thirteen. It receives those whose parents
arc both dead, and those whose fathers
are dead and whose mothers are helpless.
The management of the Institution is
not political, nor sectarian.
7. As indigent orphans do not read
the papers, they are dependent on their
Irieuds to inlorra them how they may
enjoy the benefits of this benevolent In
stitution. They will be received by the
Principal, Rev. A. D. Cohen, resident
on the premises,' or transportation will
be furnished arid the orphans promptly
and sately forwarded by J. II. Mills, of
Raleigh. The
same parties will ' also
receive (in cash
L or in kind) such con
tributions to the support ot the Asylum
as those, who approve the work it is
doing, are willing to make."
44 Our little son in helpless infancy,
Child ol" unhappy parents, ne'er will know
Thy care, my Hector, nor thy love repay
With filial piety. Should he outlive
This mournlul war, of endless woes the
cause,;
Labors and sorrows he ninst undergo
Perpetual, of his lather's rights depriv'd
By fraud or violence. The day that makes
A child an orphan, leaves him destitute
Of every friend ; a melancholy youth,
lie pines, and sighs, and bathes his cheeks
with tears.
Oppress'd und poor, he seeks his father's
mends ;
One by the robe, another by the c"at
He pulls, and begs them. Some, who pay
feel,
Offer a pittance in a scanty cup.
To wet his lips, not satisfy his thirst !
While others flourishing In joyous ease,
With both their parents living, rudely
smite
their board ra
With scorn unfeeling, and reproachful
speech:
Begone ! thy father banquets not with us !
The child in tears reiiriug to complain,
To me, his widow'd mother, comes ! Alas!
My dear Astyanax ! so tenderly
W 1th dainties led. upon his father's knee ;
That lovely infant, who latiguel with play,
And fratiate with deiigrits, so sweeny slept,
On beds of down, within his nurse's arms.
Must many wrons and insults nowendure,
Depriv'd-forever of his father's love.

War in -the Republican Rakks,
We publish by request the following
communication from a member of the
Republican party: .
Messrs. Editors! The following
extract is taken from the editorial col
umns of the Weekly Era, of the 17th
instant :
"The people of North Carolina, if
their public officers represent them, are
determined that the State shall have no
progress or prosperity if they can pre
yent it, while it is the determination of
the Democrats to hopelessly commit the
Republican party agaiast the develop
ment of our internal improvements.
But, let it be understood that the rail
road policy of the State administration
is not the policy oi' the Republican
party,and in the complications in which
the Governor and his Executive officers
are involving themselves they have not
the sympathy of those Republicans ac
quainted with the railroad affairs of the
State ; and when certain disasters over
takes them and the State, they must
bear the responsibility, hot the Repub
lican party, which, having no sympa
thetic insanity on the subject, will as
sume none ot the consequences."
As there is no Republican paper
published in Raleigh except the Era,
which is believed to be hired to advo-
cate the interest of a foreign corpora
tion in opposition to the interest of
North Carolina and her people, I have
to ask the privilege to say through
your columns, that the Governor, and
other State officials co-operating with
him, are those who are truly represent
ing the interest of North Carolina and
they are sustained by a large majority
of the people without distinction of
party ; while the Era and a few sore
heads, disappointed in their expecta
tions ot replenishing their purses by rea
son of the interference of the Governor
and other officials, are the parties
who.xare playing into the hauds of
wealthy monopolies outside of the State,
and endeavoring to make their own
State "a hewer of wood and a drawer
of water" for those monopolists. Let
everlasting shame encircle the brow of
every North Carolinian who turns his
back upon his own State and lends his
aid to foreign speculators in their at
tempts to deprive North Carolina of
an y of her rights, and reduce her people
still lower in the scale of poverty.
A Tkue Republican, and one
, of the Original Panel.
Removed. James D. Brooks, Esq.
General Agent of , the Wilmington
North Carolina Life Insurance Company,
lias removed his headquarters from this
city to Wilmington. This is done for
the reason that it is believed that it will
be advantageous to the advancement of
the business of the Company to have
the headquarters of the General Agent
in the place with the home office. We
are lad to know that the Wilmington
, & ... , r,nq-in i.uS.
iness, and as it is a meritorious home
institution, it has our best wishes for
continued prosperity. Mr. Brooks is a
a competent officer and pleasant gentle
man, and in a social point we regret
much this change. E. W. Pou, Eq.,
formerly of Johnston county, but now
of this city, will be the agent at this
place. Mr. Pou is a thorough business
man and the high character he has al
ways borne gives him the confidence of
all that know him.
Honorary Delegates. Governor
Caldwell has appointed the following
delegates from this State to attend the
Convention in reference to the proposed

Copper Ore. We have now before
us some species of copper ore taken
from the land of Luther Clegg, of
Chatham county. The specimens have
been submitted to Prof. Kerr, State
Geologist, who declares the copper to
be of good quality, and the land from
which it came is well worth mining
We learn that the vein is eight h
wide and a halt of a mile lon Here
is an excellent opportunity fur capital
ists to go into a paying speculation
Who will be the first ?
Another Important Decision.-
The State Treasurer has decided that
the State revenue law taxes all pur
chases of liquors, in or out of the State,
5 per cent.
The following i3 the language of the
scction'im posing said iax : "Lvery dea
ler in spirituous liquors, vinous liquors,
porter, lager beer or other malt liquors,
bhuH pay a tax ol hve per centum on
the amount cl all purchases ; anu every
agent who offers liquors lor sale shall
pay the tax on the value of all liquors
ot every description sold by him.
The Laws. The Secretary of State de
sires us to place him right in the matter of
sending out the Laws of the last session
of the General Assembly from his office.
The Public Prrnter.it is true, has com
menced furnishing him with the bound
copies, but a few days will have
to e'apse befoie the Secretary can sup
ply the immediate demand for them.
He will, however, mall tuem each day
until all parties have been supplied.
Can't Come. -We regret very much
to learn that W. 'II. Barnes, Esq., Past
Grand Master of the New York Grand
Lodge of 1. O. O. F.,' will not be able,
owing to other engagements, to visit
this city on the 14th prox , to deliver his
lecture, "Entertaining an Audience."
Mr. Barnes has the reputation of being
a very entertaining lecturer, and we
hope he may find inconvenient to pay us
a visit at no distant day.
In this connection it may be proper
to call attention to the error which has
occurred in regard to the meeting of
the Grand Lodge of the I. O. O. FM of
this State. This body meets on the 14th
prox., instead of the 21st as heretofore
published. -
Death op Mrs. Yancet. We regret
to announce the death of Mrs. John G.
Yancey, of Warren county, whch oc
curred in this city yesterday afternoon
at the residence of her sister, Mrs. B.
F. Moore. Although Mre. Yancey had
been an invalid for some time past and
under medical treatment, her death was
sudden, as but a few hours preceding
her demise she was bright and cheerful.
Mrs Yancey was a most estimable lady
and her death will be sincerely lamen
ted by a large circle of friends and ac
quaintances. t iv
Roet. Lawson & Co. Our types
Thursday morning made us say that
Messrs. Robert Clawson & Co., saddle
ry and harness dealers of Baltimore,
had made a contribution to the State
Fair. It should have read Robert Law

other places, will be heard from.

Description of the Lava Beds.
Washington, April . 18. r-Professor"
Hayden, in charge ol the United States
Expedition lor the general survey of the
Territories, who last :year yisited the
lava beds in Oregon, now. occupied by
the Modoc Indians, informs a reporter
of the Evening Star, that the lava beds
are an out flow of Volcanic matter,
forming a perfect sea of melted rock,
which gradually cooling, had become
broken. Innumerable little stones have
worked there way through, and the
whole place is filled with caverns which
connect one with ; another, and
extend for miles ; under, ground. They
vary in wiatn irom nttj to nve or six
hundred feet. The entrances to them
are generally very small, and, therefore,
can easily be defended. The lava beds
comprise from fifty to one hundred
square miles. It will be a difficult thing
to surround the Modocs, and there is
great danger of their eluding Our troops
on account ot the familiarity of the
Indians with the lava beds. ,
The Modocs are the same as the Dig
ger Indians, and live upon the rabbits,
lizzards, snakes, mice, and all kinds of
bugs and insects which aie found in
the caves. , r

Government indorsement, which legalizes
the sale of Plantation -Bitters, is not the
only stamp affixed to thai, famous Vegeta

stamp of public approbation. This inesti

earlier date than the Government creden
tial; for millions of sick peisons had pro
