It is now in the pub lisher's hand.s On and alter Monday (to-morrow) the city registration books will be kept open until sundown. The"spiing passion" and "warbling biid" are the popular drinks of the season at the Yai borough saloon. It is now authoritatively stated that W. D. Haywood, Esq., will be an inde pendent candidate for Mayor of this city. ' Some fifty colored laborers have left this county for the South within the past two weeks. Consumers should use , from one tourtli to one-half less of. Dooley's than of other Yest or Baking Powders. It is put up full weight. Judge Albertson produced a moet favorable impression upon the Bar of this city His manner ol presidim; gave satis laction to everv one. Eiigs are scarce in this city. We learn that Boon Hill, just down tbe railroad, is overrun with hen fruit, and you can buy the bald btaufies for 12 cents per dozen. An old colored man, liviog in Pan ther's Creek Township, this county, dropped dead . day. before yesterday while working in a field near his house. Heart disease was the cause. The only case argued yesterday in the Supreme Court was that of M. A. Bledsoe vs. E.A. Nixon etal, a civil case. The Court adjourned. The next term commences -on the fourth Monday of next June. We conti-nue to hear reports that our temperance triends intend to run a "dry ticket" in the ensuing municipal elec tion, and say they are impelled to this course, because there are sixty licensed rum mills in this city and vicinity. The contract for the printing ot Judge Battle's digest of the public laws has been awarded to Messrs. Ed wards Sc Broughton. Their bid was $7,4d0. -We intended to mention the matter when it was hrst settled, but inadvertently neglected to do so. We learn that the counsel for the Ilowerton Board on the Western road, tailing to agree on their fees among themselves, lett their services to be ap proved by his Honor, Judge Dick, and the Judge ordered them one hundred dollars each. The Model Cotton CiioppER.-vOur enterprising and ingenious townsman C. F. Reams, Esq., has just returned irom Washington city, wither he has been to secure a patent lor his invention, the "Model Cotton Chopper," which in our opinion will prove a great blessing to our cotton farmers. As we are no farmer and "what we know about farming" would be of so little importance were we to tell it, we take from the Hate Agricultural Journal, undoubtedly the best HUthority, the following in regard to this new invention : " Mr. C. F. Reams, of this city, has shown us the model of a new cotton cultivator, which appears to possess many advantages over any implement yet invented for the cultivation of cot ton. It is something on the order of a recent invention by a worthy citizen of Sampson county. We will describe it as near as possible. It consists of a double plow so arranged a? to "bar off" the youug cotton on both sides at the same time, and oy means of a very in genious connection of revolving hoes the cotton is "chopped out" with the same regularity as it could be done with a hoe in the hands of the most experi enced chopper. The cultivator rests upon two large wheels, and very light. The deuth for "barring oft" and dis- tancesfor "chopping out" are easily arranged. In addition to the chopping, &c, Mr. Reams claims for his new in vention that it will side vpthe young niant with as much accuracy as any ol r . , ... i , rT"u: ; h imnroved cotton ploughs. l.i.lW - ' IIU UIOULMia. AMIS IS certainly a great labor saving imple- oient.

"In consequence ot a com munication in the News yesterday morning, under the above heading", in which the Raleigh Era was assailed by a " Republican, '' we are requested to give place to the following commnuica tion from the Editor ot the Era : Office of the "Era," ) Raleigh, N. C, Apr'U 19, 1873. Mr. Jordan Stone, Managing Editor of Daily News, Raleigh, N. C: Dear Sir: In view of a publication made in the News of this morning, touching the conduct of the Era paper of which I am Editor, and its policy on internal improvements, I ask, as a mat ter ol justice to myself, and the paper which I edit, the publication of the fol lowing article which I communicated for your paper on Wednesday last, the 16th inst., and which you decided to hold up in consequence ot the suit for injunction then pending and about to be argued very truly, Wm. A. II earn e. THE GAUGE OF TIIE NORTH CAROLINA RAIL ROAD. Messrs. Editors of the News : If the 'North Carolina Railroad can be made a part of a Grand Trunk Line, already about completed North and South, aDd of another Grand Trunk Line East and West, to be soon finished up, over the line ot the Western North Carolina Road from Salisbury W7 est, then I insist that the gauge of the Central Road should be widened to conform to the Roads North, South and West of our Central. North Carolina system. But. I submit that such change of yaugc ought to extend at least from Charlotte to Raleigh,' and not simply from Char lotte to Greensboro. The completion of the Air Line from Charlotte to Atlanta next week, will provided the guage ol our Road is opened) place Raleigh in uninterrupted broadyauge Railroad communication with Atlanta, New Orleans and the great Southwest, more than two hun dred miles nearer than by any other route, and this advantage to the City of Raleigh and this section of North Carolina is not to be overlooked. If the gauge is opened only trom Greensboro, it is alleged that it will in jure the business of this city and dam age a great local interest, the Raleigh and Gaston Railroad, which we must preserve, but if the gauge is opened all the way to Raleigh it will benefit this city and section and the local interests referred to, lor, as the Southern system of Roads are the five feet gauge, it fol lows .hat in lapping a Grand Trunk Line we shall secure more business, passengers and freight, than we can ever hope tor from u mere local Koad, and a local Road the Central must be so long as it remains a narrcnv gauge link in a line ol broad gauge Road. In tbe interest, therelore, of Raleigh, and I may say of the Raleigh and Gas inn lt-iilroarl T insist tht thfi fTsiuerf; of the North Carolina Road ouht o be opened to Raleigh. This will make the R. & G. R. R. part of a short line from Baltimore to Atlanta, over that always popular and much sought after route, the old Bay Line. I submit these hasty views for the consideration of the people of this sec tion, and those of every Railroad interest involved. " - Public Interest, Raki-h, April 16th, 1873. Our Churches To Day.

The lower end of Fayetteville st. was thrown into a great excitement yesterday by a report that a large sum of money had been discovered under a sill of the rear portion of the old Catliolic Church, in rear of the Yarbo- rough House. The rumor spread with astouisbing rapidity, and soon an eager and wondering crowd collected around the spot. ; A the report of the discovery passed from mouth to mouth, theum grew Tcr and larger. Somedeclared that the amount was something over a mil lion, while others were positive it was just an even $o00,000. J u?t betore our arrival '-at the spot,we were assured ty a couple of gentlemen that they knew, from their own knowledge, the sum was $15,000 in gold. Now in order that the truth of history may be fully vindicated. and a truthful and unvamshed state ment of this discovery given, we give the following facts in the case : Yesterday morning as Nathan Field, colored, dining - servant ot the Yarbo rough House was searchmg among the debris of the building mentioned above in quest ot some keys he had lost, he came across a newspaper bundle and, prompted by curiosity, opened, it, when a raas3 ot goia ana silver coin and packages of paper money met his astonished gaze. The coin amounts to probably $500 and 'the paper money, old State bank notes and Confederate bills, will aggregate about $20,000. In the bundle was also found a couple of watches one a galvanized ond of lit tle or no value, ana the otner a pure gold one worth at least $150. When. or oy wnom tne uunuie was piacea where it was found, is a mystery which will probably never be solved, at least Nathah Fields hopes so. Temperance Sociable. The socia ble of Oak City Council of thi3 city, at their Hall on Friday evening last, was a very pleasant affair, and a large num ber ot persons were in attendance.. : Jas. D.
