If Mr. Snow acquits himself on this occa sion as well as he done on others of a similar character in the past, he will have sustained a deserved reputation 'for talent, industry and usefulness.

HBSUISCHnaiU Opin- ion that the space which we frequently and most cheerfully give to "Oxford Items," "Trinity College Items," ''Louis burg Items," Greensboro Items," &c, had better be given to legitimate Italeigh items. We have only this to Say in reply to our admonishing friend : Out of the 2,500 subscribers to the Da1 r,Y News, 2,000 are in the country along the lines of the various railroads, and the publication of the items complained of, is a matter of interest to 1 hem, and always contain news which they take pleasure in reading. Our locals con cerning the city of Haleigh always give everything that is transpiring, and no labor or expense is spared in giv ing to our city readers everything of a local interest which can be gathered. But we cannot exclude from our local columns matter which interests over two-thirds of our daily subscribers, nor would it be just for us to do so. It is our intention in the future, as i has been our endeavor in the past, to make our columns acceptable to all classes of patrons, and take this oppor tunity to remind our local correspon dents that they have been rather remiss of late in sending forward their commu nications. We would like to hear from them more frequently. Betts, Allen & Co. Our advertis ing columns have already announced the removal of this firm to their new buildings and grounds on North Street, immediately on the Raleigh and Gaston Railroad. A visit yesterday to this ex tensive sash, door,' blind and general building establishment, enabled us to see for ourselves the marked increase of mechanical work now going on in Ral eigh over even six months ago. The establishment. of Messrs. Betts, Allen & Co. is one of the largest in the StateH and with the aid of a large number ol experienced mechanics and everv con ceivable style and pattern of machinery, turns out weekly an immense quantity of work, and as we learn from the pro prietors, orders for work have accumu lated so rapidly on the rile that many large jobs are turned off daily. Ihe new Fair Ground buildings have been entrusted to the superintendency of Jacob S.

A meeting 01 the btockuoiaers of this Company was held in the town of Halifax on Tuesday, the 17th inst. On motion, Major John R. Neal, of Norfolk, Va., was called to the chair, and James M. Grizzard, Esq., requested to act as Secretary. The meeting was addressed by Messrs Ed. Conigland, William II. Day, R. P. Spiers, (Jol. Walter Clark and others. Resolutions were adopted pledging the Stockholders to the construction of the road, that no effort should be relax- ed until the last rail was laid, and di- recting a survey of the road during the summer. 1 Committees were appointed to solicit additional subscriptions. On motion of D. Edmondsoo, Esq., by-laws were adopted for the govern ment of the company. Ihe meeting adjourned to meet again in the town of Scotland Neck in Octo ber next, the time to be ordered by the Board of Directors. The meeting was unanimous iu their resolution to build the road, and to spare no efforts to attain that end. It is evident that the Stockholders, notwithstanding the recent defeat in the county appropriation, intend to prose cute the work to completion at no dis tant day, and we wish them all the success the energy of those who have the matter in hand may entitle them to.

With a lew dozen Tom Holt's our good old State would move along with the progress of the age." Intimidation. Tuesday morning, Mr. O'Neil, of Salisbury, commenced work on the wall of the Williamson, Upchurch & Thomas building on Fay etteville street, bringing with him from Salisbury all the hands required, num bering about thirty, xesterday morn ing two of his hands come to time much delayed. Upon enquiry as to the cause of their delay, Mr. O'Neil was informed that they had been waited upon by several of the city mechanics and told that they would be mobbed if they did not conform to the eleven hour system that the Raleigh mechanics had exacted from their Bosses. Mr. O'Neil told them they could do as they wished as he brought about two hands too many along with him. The hands commenced work stating that all they wished was his protection. Liater in uie uav several ruiuors reached Mr. O'Neil that the city me- chamcs'would pull down . his work at night if he did not at once put Ins workmen on the 11 hour system of work, and he was even so informed. Mr. O'Neil has a perfect right to work fourteen hours per day, and to employ his hands-accordingly, and any combination of men or measures to break him up or interfere with his bus iness should be put down at once and forever." A Suggestion. The Citizens' Cor net Band Wednesday afternoon kindly and appropriately discoursed sweet mu sic on the root of the southern wing of the Capitol. This place was suggested to tbem by his Honor, the Mayor, but the experi ment Wednesday illustrated the fact that the place is badly selected. It we were all ' up among the stars, sailing around the moon," the position would do quite well. lr a stand cannot be erected, we would suggest that the music would sound much better if the band will stand somewhere Dear Washington's Statue on the elevated ground, in front ; or if this be objected to, on one of the por- ticos, Eastern or Western, of the Capi tol. The root is too highl and music from there reminds the passers by of the 'horns of Elflund faintly blowing. The object ol the Mayor was commen dable to afford all of our citizens in every portion ol the city an ODportunity of listening to the dulcet strains of the rt i t jt i i. i.u u r; Comet Band but the rool ot the Capi- tOl does not answer the purpose.

The only difference was that H was more noisy. It was called in fact, on this account, tbe "National Assem bly." Apropos of this show, there is a little anecdote told iu Paris. A Russian countess, well known there, suddenly felt it necessary to try a change of air. Her only -companion was a little dog that she carried ia her muff, sometime in her sleeve, aud occasionally in her pocket. On arriving at Milan this pet poodle was taken ill and died. Its mistress invited all the aaa&U dogs in Milan to its tuneral. Three hundred mourners appeared, and each was sup plied with a jacket covered witn silver r ... AAA tears. Alter tne saa ceremony me ouw weie invited to partake of the funeral baked meats. This was too much for their irood behavior. In spite of the occasion they got into a free fight, and the ending was quite an Irish one, the crippled and the bruised creeping slowly home, or carefully catned there oy meir tender mistresses.
