Our Local Chief is expected to arrive thi3 morning. If you wish to see some stylish silk and telt hats call on C. .D. Heartt, & Co. Up to 6 p. ra. yesterday not an item could be squeezed out of the Police Court. We hear that several horse thefts have been perpetrated in this and John ston county recently. We understand that the ladies ot the Methodist Church are preparing to give a series of charades and tableaux. A small colored lad, living in the Eastern Ward, while indulging in the juvenile sport ot "walking the fence," tell and dislocated his lei t shoulder. Consumers should use from one Jourth to one-half less of Dooley's than of other Ycst or Baking Powders. It is put up full weight. Every one wishing t3 get a bowl of good soup will not fail to go to the Green Front on Harget, street to-day. Pepper's old stand. Alabama Mel tore, col., was yesterday put in jail for the non-payment of a bill of cost. The bill amounts to $50. Alabama will probably go to the Work Ilouse to work out the bill. 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 merly conducted by W. R. Pepper. Tommy is a practised hand at the busi ness and will run the machine both ac cording to Gunter and Hoyle. Trouserings this season are of unu sually quiet and neat patterns, favor being about equally divided between small stii pes and checks. They are cut rather smaller than during the winter, but still quite easy to the leer, and ner- reciij iraJbfc fr-. tha bnoo down, without any spring at the bottom. We learn that a petition is circula ting praying Hie Governor to commute Jhe sentence of Simpson Monlecai and" Thomas Griffice from hanging to impris onment lor life. It will be recollected that these men are under sentence of death lor burglary upon the premises of W. H. Hicks. 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, and 6& inches of .hitting where they were intended. Mr. C. A. Driver was the fortunate 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 dressed bv Mavor Whitaker in a co:. 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. Supreme Court. Court met yester day morning at 10 A. M. ' '. The Civil Issue and Summons dockets were called over. io business ol im- nortance was transacted; only a few unimoortantjnotior.s were made. (1) Pure Whiskey T and. mellow I Century 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. Hector's Widow, Andromache, in Homer's Iliad." .

A nero was put upon the stand as a wirness, and the judge inquired it he understood the nature of an oath. For certain, boss," said the citizen, "il I swear to a lie, I must stick to him I" A young lady in western New York has declined an offer of marriage from a wealthy lover whose name is Hussey. It is impossible not to admire the spunk of that woman who refuses to be called a Ilusscy or a man. A physican, on presenting his bill to the estate ot a deceased patient, asked, Do you wish to have my bill sworn to ?" "No," replied the executor, "the death of the deceased is sufficient evidence that you attended him profes sionally." A ten-year-old, boasting to a scnoo!- niate of his father's accomplishments, put it thus: "My rather can do almost anything. He's a notary ; public, and he's a 'pothecary, and hecan pull teeth, and he's a horse doctor, and he can mend wagon and things, and he can play the fiddle, and he's a jackass ai all trades." A Danbury woman sent her bdv down street lor the following articles: A. bar of soap, piece ot music, entitled "Waiting at. the Gate, Love," three needles, a feather, a bottle ot hair oil, the New York Weekly, a . pound of starch, a mended ear-ring, a half pound of candy, ten cents' worth of lime, a basket of peaches and a paper of cinna mon. What the boy brought home was a half pound of candy. xx. We are glad to know that the water works question is exciting interest. 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.

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.

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 Comparative Cotton Statement.
