Mr. William Yearby, butcher in this city, informs us that he has lost within the last three or four days about thirty hogs. He says they do not appear to be sick,' just look droopy. Mr. Yearby's hogs took the premium at the last State Fair. Ben Kirkham has also lost a lot of hogs the same way. Slie Wouldn't Have Him. It certainly came off and that right recently in a certain town in this State not a thousand miles off. A charming young lady was just on the eve of mar rying a dashing young New York drummer. The crowd had assembled and all that, but the drummer, so elated at the idea, had taken a wee bit too much, and the lady somehow or other heard of it, so she sent to him to know if it was so. He refused to say. She sent again to know if it was so, and he replied throwing his arms about, " I am as I am, no man is my mediator." She dismissed the guests immediately, vow ing that she would remain single all her days ere she would marry a man mat got tignt. This is true. Hut we call no names as our informant objects. I'iucKy gin mat. ner oeauty was worth the worship of a Prince before, but now her soul makes it worth the moon and stars. Auditor Keilly. This clever gentleman, our newly elected Auditor, was Mayor of Fayette ville at the time, and since having re signed that position he has received the following letter from the board of com missioners all of whom are of the oppo site political party save one. They say : "In severing the official relations which have existed, between us it is a source of pleasure to us to look back and find nothing that has transpired to mar the friendly social feelings which have grown up between us. Though & majority of us differ with you in politi cal sentiments it is gratifying to us in dividually and should be to the citizens of our town that party strife has been laid aside in the administration of the affairs of our town, and harmony instead of wrangling has marked our counsels. Wishing vou much happiness in the new position to which you have been chosen, we remain, yours respectfully, H McDowd, W T Frizell, B E Ledberry, W C McDuffie. R T Scanlin, David Jones. Wm A Guthrie, Commissioners of Fayetteville." A Few Thoughts. It is not so much what school he went to, or how many slaves his family used to own, or with what patronymic neatness he has always kept his collar standing, his boots well shined and his head cocked back in a pantomimic rep resentation of the classic features of his distinguished family, that the people want to represent them in these pro gressive times. J3ut they want a man of biz. A man whose ideas are out yon der breaking up the future of twenty years ahead for the people of this day to live in and prosper in. A man not to come here and tie himself in legis lating to what old Squire this or Sauire that may think about it, but what he himself sees, as he looks at the march of progress before him, must come, whether Squire this or Sauire that thinks so or not. Not a a young man to talk buncombe and po etry and schoolboy fun and send it home in the papers for his sweetheart to read, but young men who have thrown themselves in the front ranks of these times, not wrestling before a mir ror with a glass of toddy in one hand, and grasping at old aristocratic notions of the days when men called them mas ter, with the other ; but with sleeves rolled up determined to forget these things as the Past has buried them, and whether it comes to tote his own satch el, while his old servant may ride in a chaise, or not, to do it, knowing that it is so, that God has ordered it, that the world has endorsed it, and that by the powers, he will go forward with the rest, and not be found halting behind listening to the railings of old men whose heads are but the curiosity shops of the thoughts and ideas deposited in them by a race of .people who died a hundred years ago. Act and live with the new. -: - Our State. The Piedmont Springs are to be sold in a few days. A vind storm in "Wilmington last Tuesday had the window shutters I .v. a . .. Mt. Airy, Jan. 18th. The Visitor says : Snow is falling to-day in abun dance, and from indications we will, in all probability, have quite a deep mow. He didn't knovv it was bad kero sene when ho sold it to John Beavans of Enfield, but a neat little display of fireworks in John's parlor a few nights after left the carpet smelling like a burnt rag, and John has already made his mind up. Couldn't cross the mountain for the ice. The- Messenger, Ash, county. says : Several wagons loaded for the A. M. & O. Railroad depot at Marion, Va., left this place one day lasf week, returned here last Sunday evening, not being able to cross the Iron mountain on account of the ice. A German family settled in Greensboro. The Patriot says: Last Friday we saw on our streets a German family, consisting of father, mother and six nne-lookins: saris and bovs. who had just arrived to take up their resi dence in their new home, purchased a couple of miles from town. Tut, tut, we knew a man who wasn't able to take his seat comfortably for a month from carrying them there. The Newbern Times says : When one sees a man bending, m his shirt sleeves over a billiard table, and exposing the butt of his revolver in his rear pocket, the natural mental inquiry is "Who is that fellow, and where is his grave yard ?" The Era published some six weeks since that Gen. Lane was expect ed to take charge of the Hillsboro Bar racks. The Richmond papers flatly contradicted it, and the State papers danced the contradiction all over the State, and the Era sorter felt bad about it. Now the Hillsboro Recorder says : " We are in receipt of a communication from General James H. Lane, whidh does not preclude the hope and belief that he may yet be induced to accept the control of the Institution." Well, the Era wasn't far wrong, after all. Whenever it tells a thing, you had bet ter believe there's something in it! Personal Intelligence. is at the National. Hon. Wm. A. Smith of Johnston, you all remember mat "horn" last summer, is at mo Yarboro. Mrs. Mary Walker, widow, and a g. granddaughter of Benjamin Franklin, died in Washington Monday. Mayor Vansant, of Baltimore, recom mends compulsory vaccination for that city. Raleigh should do the same. Will. Yates has left Greensboro to settle in Texas. And Ed. Scott has gone to Worcester, Mass., to perfect himself as a machinist. Henry Ward Beecher lectured Mon day night at Stein way Hall, New York, on "The Unconscious Influences of Democratic Principles." A Lutheran clergyman named Reh- steiner, of Richmond, Ind., .was last week fined $129.40 for administering marital castigation with a carriage whip to his wife while she was taking a bath. The Ashe Messenger says: we are sorry to say that Mr. Thos. Burke, of this county, got lost in Xhe White Top mountain during the cold spell in De cember last and was very seriously frozen. The manv friends of Drl Edmund Strudwick and lady, of Hillsboro', will be glad to learn that they have returned from a loner visit to their relatives in Alabama and New Orleans, looking well and in improved health; Farm-Yard Scraps. At Peoria, Illinois, a cow broke into he absence the parlor of a house during of the human occupants, who found, upon their return, old brindle standing in front of a mirror, chewing her cud and dusting the piano with her tail at short intervals. j For epizoot and distemper with horses and cholera 'mong chickens the Greens boro Patriot savs: Take the root of! what is known as horse nettle, make a tea of it and give a pint twice a day, morning and night. This is the expe rience of a reliable gentleman of this county, who has tried it with unfailing success. Thrown in a trough where chickens can drink it will cure chickea cholera. Here's an honest iniller. Mr. Simp- -m a A - . A J. If. son, a uatawba larmer, writes to me Hickory Pi-ess: Two weeks ago I sent five bushels of Baltimore White Wheat to Mr. Daniel P. Johnson's Mill ; from which Mr. Aleck Lael, after taking out the Toll, returned me 240 pounds, of choice flour, or 48 pounds of flour per bushel of wheat. As such a yield of flour is uncommon, I wish to let the public know how good a mill and great a miller Mr. Johnson has ; and what the Baltimore While Wheat will yield. The wheat was made on the farm for merly occupied by the Connelly family, at Icard Station. - . : , Our City. t It is so wet and muddy that our city is by the stove keeping dry. There are three blind colored men in Raleigh who can go to any part ol the city without a leader. Raleigh has ' neaHy doubled her pop ulation in the -last live years and real estate has advanced fifty per cent. We were glad to see Monseur Besson, the fashionable city tail6r,on our streets to-day. Mr. Besson has been confined to his room some time by sickness. The Governor ias. received a letter from the Governor of Missouri in regard to the man John Cousins now in jail at Morgan ton for an alleged murder that he committed in Kansas, City in 1869, stating that after a careful investigation there is found nqLrocord of any charges against, uousins. oq ue win jje lurneu loose. Twigs. Good as a splendid dinner to the sight of a hungry man is the opening of the Washington Evening Star to the de sires of a newspaper man thirsting for a newspaper. Mr. Kogers introduced, a bill in Congress on Monday to relieve the dis abilities of Wm. A. Graham and Sam'l T. Ashe, which was referred to the Ju diciary Committee. A young lady called at the office of the Clyde Times, the other day, and called for " papers for a week back." The idea suggested was that she wanted them for a pannier, thousrh the editor held his peace. From an official statement prepared at the Internal Revenue Office it appears that the whole number of cigar manu facturers in the United States is 12,294, employing 71,491 men, and for whom the whole amount ot bonds given is $14,016,000. A bill passed the House of Repre sentatives, in the Congress of the Uni ted States, on yesterday, repealing the Bankrupt Law. It will be engrossed and sent to the Senate ; if it passes that bodv it will become a law. Better hurry up your petitions if you want to take it. Says the Washington Star : The boys have a new name for it. When ever one of them wants to know when this or that gentleman was elected to the United States Senate, instead of putting the question in the old fashioned way, he asks : " What year did Sena tor So-and-so ' buy in !" Says the Herald: The Virginians in Wsshington are demoralized over the House to-day in repealing the Bank rupt act. If the bill introduced in the Senate should pass, or should the Senate concur with the House, great distress is anticipated in the Southern States, especially in Louisiana. k The Washington Star of Monday says : The Ways and Means Committee, a few days since, fixed to-morrow as the time to consider the bill refunding the cotton tax, but as several prominent bankers are here to be heard on the syndioate question, the cotton bill will be laid aside for the present. Among the bankers to be heard to-morrow are L. P. Morton, of the firm of Morton, Bliss & Co., and J. P. Morgan, of the firm of Dabney Morgan & Co. The Detroit Free Press serves up an other boy: " Got any medicine?" asked a boy, entering a Woodward avenue drug store yesterday. " Yes, lots of it what do you want?" inquired the clerk, "Oh! it don't make any difference so it's something lively. Dad's iearluliy bad." "What ails him?" asked the clerk. " Dunno," replied the boy, " but he's run down awful. He just sits around the stove all day and mopes, and he hain't walloped mother since Christmas. I guess he's going to die." Musical and Theatrical. Wachtel has applied to the Emperor of Germany for a leave of absence, which will enable him to visit Ameri ca next season. John Owens, the comedian, tired of travelling has concluded to settle down in his native city of Baltimore and build a museum-theater there. Washington Star says : The Georgia minstrels, slave troupe, will illustrate plantation life and manners, singing the songs ana aancmg me dances ot me At 1 . Jl. - times before the war, at Lincoln Hall, commencing Thursday evening. Edwin Booth has appeared on the New York stage for the first time in six years, rne xieraia says oi mm : xxia acting last night fixes his position as the greatest of living tragedians, and now that we no longer have Forrest, we may rejoice that we are still left the very great power of Booth. Matilda Heron, the well known ac tress, weutinsane at the New York hotel last Sunday and was removed to the Park hospital. This woman in the summer of 1856 on a Cairo boat when a desperado had shot the clerk down dead and with pistol in hand was running over the hurricane deck and down the afterguard pursued by several gentle men crying "Stop him," she sprang upon him and throwing him down held him until the gentlemen came up and took him in charge. The fellow was never tried by law. The water only knows his resting place. Fists. JSST Of the banlcrupt bill in Con gress the Philadelphia Inqurier says : In the House yesterday, Mr. Bingham, from the Judiciary Committee, reported a bill amending the Bankrupt act so as to equalize the exemptions allowed in the various States, a substitute for which, repealing .the Bankruptcy law entirely, was finally passed under a su spension of the rules. A new law on the subject, which should be more gen eral in its operation, and be shorn of some of the features which in the pres ent act have caused much dissatisfac tion, such as the power of forcing a per son into involuntary bankruptcy, would, no doubt, be acceptable to the community, and the action of the House will very probably be seconded by the Senate. . gr The Chinese in Montana sell their women in slavery. The following an advertisement as it appears in the Virginia City Montanian, with the re marks of the editor as given below the advertisement : " Wane: Geu owes Dr. YeeCheugh Five Hundred and Fifty Dollars. He cannot pay it. So accord ing to Chinese law. he left his woman Sing Gim, in Dr. Yee Cheugh's posses sion as collateral, until the money shall be paid. All right. By and by, all same yesterday, Singr Gim stole Three Hundred and Seventy Dollars from Dr. Yee Cheugh, and ran away. Now then, all Chinamen take notice that if you keep Sing Gim, you must pay mo Nine Hundred and Twenty Dollars, all same Wang Geu. dr. tee cheugh. Virginia City, December 19, 1872." We have known many other instances of like kind, transpiring: in different parts of the Territory, and presume that, to most of our people, a knowl edge of this 'r nefarious traffic in hu man souls" is nothing new. Not long since one of these boss Chinamen, own ing two or three moon-eyed beauties, importuned a prominent gentleman of this city to purchase one at the rather exorbitant figure of $1,100, at the same time warranting her to be obedient, and free from all " ways that are dark and tricks that are vain." This property was not the kind the importuned wished to pay taxes upon, -and he therefore de clined to purchase. We are not very intensely interested in the welfare of i the heathen Chinee, but for humanity's sake call the attention of the purifying Puritans to this new field of labor. JB" Another New York murder. This time one printer kills another. Miss Brown was the cause. They all boarded at the same boarding house. First printer. Mr. McGruder. Miss Brown liked. Second one, Lockwood, she didn't fancy. As McGruder sat on the sofa in the parlor Lockwood passed bv them with a pillow in his hand and gently touched Miss B. in the face with the pillow, remarking, " We have not been on erood terms, but now we are friends again." McGruder insinuated that he'd rather Lock wouldn't talk to Miss B. in his presence and Lock slap ped Mac in the face. That started it. Then whiskey on top of both, and of course, a murder is to follow. Mac says, I won't fight you to-day, it's Sunday, but I want you to prepare yourself, for to-morrow I will shoot you like a dog." So the next night while the boarders, all except Lockwood, were at supper, Mac tripped gently up stairs to Lock- wood's room, and as L., who was sitting by the fire place, sprang to his feet, Mac let him have a couple of balls. They bore Lockwood mortally wounded to the policetation and as they afterwards confronted McGruder with him, here is the interview as given in the New York Sun : While Lockwood was lying in the police station, McGruder was taken before him for identification. As he looked at the dying man he curled his lio and said. "I told you I would shoot you to-day, didn't I ?" " Why did you shoot me, Mack ?" asked Lockwood.- Didut I tell you I was going to shoot you like a dog to-day?" was the reply. At 8 o'clock Lockwood. who was said to be dying, was taken toBellevue Hos pital. Mr. Maddison and Miss Brown were detained at the police station as witnesses. Coroner Herrman was no tified to take the dying man's ante- mortem deposition. Gin Burnt. We learn that one day last week Mr. Marmaduke . Williams of Chatham countv had the misfortune to have his cotton gin, flouring and grist mills, des- stroved bv fire. Caused by a match in the cotton. Loss between five and ten thousand dollars.
