the Public Treasurer on tho 20th

iitely informed by the orator of the
occasion that his lecture was inten

he intended "shelling" all outsiders,
had better retire, we held a

The Editor of the Sentinel addressed
a meeting in Metropolitan Hall, in
this city, on Monday evening, the

ference of the Methodist Episcopal I pose of finding out, if possible, the

we could learn (and that was mostly
inferred) was that the Editor want
ed the public printing and thought
the best mode to obtain it was to
abuse his opponents. Those who
did not already know, were en-
lightened to the extent that Dr.
Hawkins is President of the Raleigh
and Gaston Railroad: that Dr.
Blacknall is proprietor of tho Yar
borough House and stockholder in
the AWrx- that Ma . Hearne once
edited the Carolinian ; that Ex-Gov.
Holden is a member of the Bap
Church, South, will commence m
this city, on the 2d day of Decem
ber. Bishop Marvin Is expected to
preside.
If Alcoholic SUmuIantsare taken into
the blood the heart works faster, and
t ils unnatural speed wears out the vital
machinery. All intoxicating nos
trums advertised as 44 tonics," 44 renova
tors," Ac, produce this disastrous effect
and ahouldbe rejected. Dr. Walker's
Vegetable Vinegar Bitters an Invigor
ant without the. curse of alcohol is
everywhere supplanting these poisons.
Robbery. On Monday after
noon, 23d inst., abouL 2 o'clock, Mr.
C. H. Weathers,- a grocer, doing
business on Fayetteville street, near
Martin, locked his door for the pur
pose of going to dinner. On his re
t irn he found one of his rear win
dows had been raised and upon ex
amination discovered that his mon
ey drawer had been robbed of about
thirty dollars. No clue had been
obtained of the robber at last accounts.
Under Way. A large number
of bills and resolutions are beinp
every day offered in the Legislature
and referred to committees. Very
little will be done until the com
mittees report, when the actual bus
Iness will commence. The work ol
the session is rarely entered into
oirnestly until after the Christmas
holidays. Although a resolution
- a a a .1
has been offered loosing io an au
journment sine die on the 21st of De
cember, it will find but little favor,
as indications point to an extended
session, reaching perhaps to the
middle of March.

Esq., Col. Buford and Maj. W. A.
Smith, are nrominent railroad
men, and that Messrs. Stone &, XJz
zell were, at one time, journeymen
printers. At the close of the speech
he offered resolutions concerning
rates of Interest, railroads, and the
Convention, but they were treated
in rather a farcical manner, and
amid the confusion the meeting ad
journed.
Bold attempt to escape. On
Sunday afternoon, 22d inst., about
4 o'clock, the prisoners confined in
the county jail in this city, formed
a plot to escape, which, however,
proved a failure. It seems that the
jailor was called to bring in some
lime for disenfecting purposes, ai-
Legislative Summary.
WVdnesdav. Nov. 18th. in the
Senate, a resolution was introduced
bvMr. Warinsr. that a committee
of seven from tho Senate and
twelve from the House, be appoint
ed to devise some suitable plan by
which the public debt can be adjust
ed satisfactorily to the creditors anu
without oppression to the people.
Laid over under the rules.
A resolution of Mr. Waring's in
reference to the appointment of a
committee to consider what amend
ments were necessary to the Consti
tution, elicited much discussion,
and wa3 finally passed. The com
mittee is composed of eight from
the Senate and thirteen from the
House.
In the House, Mr. Trivett offered
a resolution asking our Senators and
Representatives in Congress to use
their influence to defeat the civil
rights bill. After the introduction
of several unimportant bills the
Governor's message was received
and read. At the conclusion of
which, the House adjourned.
In the Senate, Thursday, Nov.
19th, very little of interest transpir
ed. The bill of Mr. Cantwell, of
New Hanover, extending the col
lection of taxes in that county CO
ter using the lime, and when about
to retire, one of the prisoners threw I days read and passed its final read
some of it into the jailor's eyes, at
the same time catching him around
tho waist. The officer drew a pis
tal and fired, when the prisonerran,
whereupon tho officer fired on him
again, the ball taking effect in the
back and bringing him to a stand.
At last accounts the would-be fugi
tivo was under medical treatment.
Fuel.. We are informed that the
enormous price of $4.50 per cord is
now demanded for wood delivered
in the city. It strikes us that if
this is to continue there will be a
great deal of suffering among our
people this winter. We hope that
our railroad companies will take
some steps looking to a reduction
of freights, as we are told that It Is
almost impossible for the dealers to
8311 at a less price on that account.
There is enough wood within a
short distance of Raleigh that could
Oisily be brought to market, to pre
vent anything like a scarcity, if the
railroads would agree to bring it at
ing.
Under a suspension of the rules,
the bill preventiug the Public Treas
urer from paying out any money as
interest on the State debt unless
specially authorized by the Legis
lature, was taken up and passed its
several readings.
In tlie House, a joint 'select com
mittee was ordered to consider the
question of per diem.
Mr. Hanner introduced a bill
iookingtothealteration of the home
stead law so as to render its pros
pective feature that of a fee simple
title. After the introduction of sev
eral unimportant resolutions and
bills the House adjourned.
Friday, Nov. 20th, in the Senate,
Mr. Cantwell introduced a bill to
provide for calling a convention
with the same representation as tne
Kefer
rights"" resolutions came up ai spe
cial order. Mr. Means offered a
substitute, stating that the people
had spoken plainly on the subject.
Tho original bill of Mr. Trivett
asks Congress to withdraw the bill
and also requests President Grant to
veto it, if passed. Considerable
discussion took place, pending
which the House adjourned.
STATE.
Mr. Caleb Setzer, of Rowan, who
was wounded a few days since in an
encounter with a colored burglar
has died of his wounds. Applica
tion will bo made at the present
session of the Legislature for a new
charter for the city of Charlotte.
A colored man named Elam Hen

step-son, In Charlotte, on the 17th
inst. There are fourteen prison
ers in Rutherford county jail, and
the number is daily increasing.
The skating rink in Statesville is in
full blast. There have been 44
conversions in Selma recently un
der the management of Rev. N. 13.
Cobb, of the Baptist church.
The Statesville ' Landmark has on
hand four fully developed ears of
corn, matured ou one shoot, and
two bolls from one cotton bloom.
Bald Mountain is again on the
shake. Partridges five cents a
piece in Hillsboro. While J. A.
Perry and wife, of Bladen county,
were working in a field, their little
child, 18 months old, fell into a pot
of boiling water and was scalded o
death. A trunk was found re
cently on a- street in Wilmington.
On breaking it open, letters were
found proving it to be the property
of Ja nit's B. Houston, of Jackson,
Tenn. There was blood on some of
th'e papers and the matter will un
dergo investigation. Jas. Boyd,
Sr., of Chester, S. C, was drugged
arid robbed of $75 a few days ago in
Charlotte. Four divorce suits are
to be tried at the next term of the
Mecklenburg Superior Court.
Mr. G. Livesay, of Goldsboro, has

been granted to Dr. B. J. Field, of
Leakesville, N. C, for an improved
method of attaching artificial teeth
to their plates. Mr. W. H. Sneli,
formerly of Craven, at present a
resident of this county, has been
out of necessity confined in the jail
at this place, for two weeks or more,
on account of lunacy. The cause of"
his trouble is attributed we under
stand to pecuniary embarrassments,
and his case is a sad one. indeed.
Prior to his affliction he was a gen
tleman of much intelligence, hav
ing graduated some years ago at
YalcColIeire, with distinction. His
whole estate, worth over $60,000,
was swept away by the war. He is
very respectably connected both in
this and Craven counties, but his
relatives, like himself, have suffer
ed so much by the war. thev are
unable to afford him any relief. We
are glad to know that Maj. Sparrow,
Dr. John McDonald, K.L.Myers,
and others of his friends have inter
ested themselves in his behalf, and
are making every effort to alleviate
his sufferings. Our community will
be under obligations to the Raleigh
papers if they will bring the matter
to the attention of the authorities
of the Asylum, and ascertain if
there is a possible chance for his ad
mittance. If there was ever a pitia
ble object he is one. Wash. Echo.

beba, the-wonderful tonic and invigora
tor, which acts so beneficially on the
secretive organs as to impart vigor to
all the vital forces.
It is no alcoholic appetizer, which
stimulates for a short time, only to let
the sufferer fall to a lower depth of mis
ery, but it is a vegetable tonic acting
directly on the liver and spleen.
It regulates the bowels, quiets tlie
nerves, and gives such a healthy tone to
the whole system as to soon make the
invalid feel like a new person.
' Its operation is not violent; but is
characterized by great gentleness ; the
patient experiences no sudden change,
no marked resu ts, but gradually his
troubles
"Fold their tents, like the Arabs,
And silently steal away."
This is no new and untried discovery,
but has been Ion z used with wonderful
remedial results, and is pronounced by
the highest medical authorities, "the
most powerful tonic and alterative
known."
Ask your druggist for it.
