THE WEEKLY ERA. V.r. M. BItOWX, - - Manaokk Musical Reception. We are requested to invite the friends of St. Mary's and the visitors to the Fair, to a Musical Reception at that institution, cm Thursday evening, ICth Inst. from 7 to 10 o'clock. , Advertise. Without Intending to disparage any other journal, we contend that the Era as a medium for advertising is surpassed by no liper in North Carolina. It is read in every portion of the State bv a class comnos-td in a mr S great measure of the bone and tin- cw of the land. It is circulated to . State Fair. The thirteenth an nual Fair of the North Carolina Air- 11 t - ricuuunu oocieiy commenced at their New Grounds about one mile West of this city on Monday last the 13th inst.

At 11 o'clock a. m., tne procession, of the Executive committee accompanied by his Excellency Gov. Caldwell, left the city and proceeded to the Fair Grounds. After their arrival the President of the Society, T. Mj Holt, Esq., announced that the ex- hibition would be formerly opened by Gov. Caldwell. " The Governor then delivered the newspaper of the State, among those who read the advertising columns, and especially is thi so in thecoun- try around this city.

PniLLJPS. This dis tinguished gentleman was on a fly ing visit to our city last week, for the purp of removing his family to Washington city. He was look ing remarkably well. The people of : North Carolina may justly feel proti'i of being represented at the national capital by such a man as SumttH F. Phillips. Apolooktic. Wo ask the in dulgence of our readers for any lack ofourj usual original matter in to day's j issue. The beautiful ladies, fine looking gentlemen, magnificent hors9, fat hogs, game chickens, and a thousand other things we saw at the Fair, have so addled our brains that it is impossible to con centrate our thoughts on any one subject, and to remain in our sanc tum long enough to write an exten ded article is out ot the question. Day kn ro rt 1 J roth e its. These wonderful performers will exhibit at Metroolitan Hall in this city, on Thursday and Friday evenings the ICth and 17th inst. Their perform ances' are curious, quainf, marvel ous and rare. Their wonderful illusions have astonished the scien tific men of the civilized world. If we had not .een these gentlemen and taken them by the hand, we would be inclined to believe they Were some relative to his santanic majesty so startling and mysterious Rre some of their feats. We advise those who possibly ran do so to go and se them.

The Era office Is visited by more persons from the surrounding country than any other of the kind in the city and few leave without our paper. We believe it to be the interest o all our merchants to advertise ex tensively in the Era. Our list o subscribers is rapidly increasing and will doubtless continue to do so Every effort is being made to make it second to no paper in the State in every particular. The Local will see to it that al advertisements are properly refer red to at the time of their insertion. None shall be overlooked. Wecal attention to our rates in another column. Attention Smith's. In 18o9 or thercatouts a young man named William Smith left Guilford c un ty, N. C, and went to California, where lie died in 1S71. He left an estate worth several thousand dol lars, i His family and relations are -requested to report to Mendenhall and Staples, attorneys at law, Greensboro, N. C. We hope this firm of lawyers have a large office. They, will have use for all the chairs in Greensboro, and we advise them tosndtothe Thomasville factory for an additional supply. We heard that our great grand mother once swaped cats with an old lady named Smith and we are going to search the records. Now is the Time. We are re minded from the number of mar riages that are daily taking place in Raleigh, and from others that we h-arn are soon to take place, of the necessity of calling the attention of these happy pairs to the fine btock' of varieties on hand at the store of N. L. Brown, on Fayette ville street, next door to the tele graph ofiice. Brown has on hand many things that newly married folks ought to have. We notice one article in particular that it would be well to have in the house. It has a top like a buggy and has wheels fixed to it. It can be shoved along the street by hand, and we have seen babies ride in them some time. They a.r good thine to have5 about in case of accident in the family. A thousand other things are at Brown's suitable to both married and single. He sella cheap and at small profits. State Government. The offi cers of the different departments of the State Government are busily engaged in getting up their reports and other work preparatory to the meeting of the General Assembly next month. The people of North Carolina have cause to congratulate themselves upon the efficiency that pervades every department of our State service. No State in the Union can boast of more honest and capable public servants than ours, and in their intercourse-with the people their conduct is marked with politeness and gentlemanly bearing. There is one matter in connection with our State depart ments that the Legislature should look into, and that is the necessity of allowing our heads of depai fo ments sufficient clerical force to promptly perform the duties de volving upon them. We do not think for instance that the legisla ture has treated Gov. Caldwell with becoming propriety in this matter. During Gov. Worth's administra tion the Governor was allowed in addition to a Private Secretary one Executive Clerk and a Messenger, and this aid was continued during the administration of Gov. Holden. If there was a necessity for this ad ditional force then the same neces sity exists now. The duties of the Executive office have greatly in creased since the war. The records of the office are far heavier, and during the session of the General Assembly one Secretary finds it totally impossible to keep up the business of his office as it should be. This is a matter in which the peo ple of the whole State are interested. It should not be looked upon in any manner in a partisan light and it is a system of false economy that the people do not endorse. We be lieve the people of North Carolina of all parties are desirous of having their public business transacted properly and with punctuality and for this purpose they wish to have at all times a sufficient and compe tent force. It. F. Jones it Co. We call espe cial attention to the advertisement of these gentlemen in another col umn. Mr. Jones is a young gen tleman well known in this commu nity. ; He is the son of Robt. Jones, Esq., formerly of the firm of Heartt and Jones, dry goods merchants in Raleigh. Mr. Chas. Allen of this city is also a partner in the house. He isthe son of our deceased friend Col. C. B. Allen, formerly agent of the Raleigh and Gaston Railroad Company at Raleigh. He Is a young man of well known business qualifications and most popular manners. Wear proud to notice the success of these young men. Their fathers before them were among our best citizens, and they are chlpa of the old blocks. We wish; them nil success, and we firmly believe they will have it. They have one of the finest stocks of groceries to be found in thecity and we invite our friends to call ami see themT- Astonishing Cures. We have had the pleasure of an interview with Dr. N. A. Moses who is now stopping at the Yarboro House in this city where he will remain until the 20th inst. Since his arrival in Raleigh Dr. Moses has made some wonderful cures of persons afflicted with stammering. We are at lib erty to notice in particular the case of young Pescud, a clerk in the book store of Alfred Williams, Esq. This young man has been afflicted from infancy with an impediment In til peech to such an extent that it was difficult for him to enter into the most ordinary conversation. He placed himself under the care of Dr. Moses and after taking five les sons is now able to talk as well as anybody. There are other cures we know of but are not at liberty to mention them. Dr. Moses is we believe a native of North Carolina and was for forty years afflicted with stammering. He has by an art.of which he is thefounder.made a perfect cure of himself, of which any person conversing with him cannot fail to notice. We advise all persons similarly afflicted to give the Doctor a call. We did not learn his charges but they cannot be greater than the benefits derived from his treatment. .Ik Town. We have had the pleasure of seeing T. C. Evans, Esq., formerly local editor of the Daily Era, and at present connected with the Richmond Enquirer. - His many friends will doubtless be glad to hear that he has recovered from his late attack of sickness. Mr. Evans has the reputation of being one of the best localizers in the South, and. we think, deservedly so. elegant and spacious buildings and a more eloquent speech is utt erred than can be delivered by any one in the State.- Three short months ago this attractive crround was nothing but an old broom-sedge field, filled with gullies and covered with run ners. To-day it is as pretty an ex hibition ground as any in the South, and give us twelve months more and we will challenge a comparison with any south or north of Mason's and Dixon's line. This, gantlemen, shows what brain and muscle, back ed by energy and perseverance, will do when properly applied. There was one thing which ho would say, and which he felt it his duty to say : he hoped politics might never enter this inclosure. All should meet here as friends and neighbors. Let no political bitter ness and hate rankle in our bosoms. Let us forget the dissensions of the past and join hands in camity in the future. It was time that these bittei antagonisms should cease. He appealed to all to forget the unpleasant recollections of the past and live in harmony and friend ship henceforth. Men entertaining political differences in the olden time could be personal friends. Why could it not be so now? He would say to his Republican friends, and being a member of that party ho had a right to say it, take upon yourselves no fantastic airs in com ing in here because you are a Re publican. You are no better than anybody else! To his Democratic friends he wouid say: be not ashamed ; you are in good company. lie would be rejoiced to see this spirit of fraternity and kindness prevade the entire State. Dissen sions and animosities buried, and all good and true men working to gether for the common good of our State. In conclusion, the Governor again complimented the Society on the successful issue of its efforts, and hoped it would soon reach that height of prosperity, beyond which there could be no improvement. The weather up to this time has continued very favorable and if it continues so during Wednesday and Thursday there will doubtless be a l much larger attendance than at any previous occasion of the kind in North Carolina. The articles on ex hibition far surpass in quantity and quality those usually entered at our State Fairs. The stalls for the stock are well arranged for the comfort of the animals, and perfect order is noticed in every depart ment. We have not had sufficient time to give as complete an account of the exhibition as we would wish. It is only sufficient now to say that our State Fair is a most complete success in every respect and the oc casion will long be remembered by those in attendance. We cannot but admire the energy with which the Secretary R. T. Fulghum, Esq., and his assistants have labored to get everything in order. These gentlemen have worked night and day for the past few weeks and hav ing had occasion to notice their management of affairs we can say to the people of the State that their agricultural and mechanical interest have been promptly and faithfully attended too. After the stir and bustle of the occasion shall have passed away, we shall give a more extended account of all we saw and much of what we heard. Patents. We have been fur nished by J. McC. Perkins & Co., counselors at law and solicitors for Ancient and Foreign Patents, Washington, D. C, with the follow ing list of patents issued to citizens of North Carolina for the week ending October 9th, 1873 : 143,184. Adding Machine. Solomon Pool, Chapel Hill. Ap plication filed June 13, 1873. A. revolving plate, confined be tween a stationaoT base and face plate, and carrying a loose series of numbered concentric rings with a peculiar decimal trip, is moved by projecting pins on an exterior flange. The stationary face-plate is provided with suitable Teading openings, with a set of figures near its outer edge, and with two sets of engaging-dogs for each ring one of them for bringing the rings all to zero at the ridial window, and the other set for separately acting on the particular ring under ope ration. .143,619. Cultivator. Willis Dewis, Oxford. Application filed Aprils, 1873. Raffle. The fast trotting horse "Silk Stocking" will be raffled for on Friday evening at 8 o'clock at the Yarboro House. There will be three hundred chances at five dol lars each. This horse won the first heat on the 13th at the fair: Tick et can be had at the Yarboro House and fair grounds. lt We learn, says the Salisbury Watchman of the 2nd inst., that on Sunday evening a little son of S.

In conse quence of the recent stringency of moDey matters no effort" has been made to collect the instalments re cently called for from the stockhol ders of the Female Seminary, but we understand it is the intention of the directory to make a move in the matter at no very distant day. All the bricks necessary for the buildings have been made and a number of payments advanced upon them. We trust soon to see the realization of the long talked of in stitution.

Mr. Holton, a lar mer in Pamlico near the line of Craven county, lost six valuable hogs by the bears, and they were continually making depredations upon the farms in his vicinity. Goldsboro Messenger. State and County Taxes. By referance to the Sheriffs books, yesterday, we find that a very large proportion of the State and county taxes for New Hanover stili remain unpaid. While that officer is of a very accommodating disposition, and would willingly indulge the public were it in his power, the law will compel him to resort to ex treme measures, very, shortly, as much as he may regret such a course. Deliuquents would do well, therefore, to "come up to the scratch" at the earliest possible moment. Mil. Star. ABaleigii Divine. The Roclcy ML Mail in its notice of Rev. Dr. Pritchard, at the Tar River Asscia tion, says: Suffice it to say his effort was the most felicitous, and on brilliant stepping stones of rhetoric, his thoughts climbed to the grandest heights of sublimity. In his pe rioration, in which he spoke of the "eternal perpetuity of Baptist prin ciples" and the "final victorious struggle with Romanism" his man ner approximated positive enthusi asm, and every feeling was sought by his mighty avealanche of emo tion. The association proved a de lightful affair and with two or three exceptions we write 4 'approved" upon all their actions. We regret that we have no occasion to tender "thanks for ' courtesies extended" to representatives of the press.

The llejmblican party of Virginia in common with . the national Re publican party, is opposed to all forms of repudiation, and favor such a flnanicial policy as shall tend to the payment of the public debt cf the State without being oppressive upon her citizens. We regard the expenses of our State government as disproportioned to the available resources of the people, and demand that they shall be made more fully to confirm thereto. We disapprove all extra compensation, and favor economy in government, State and national ; that we deem the act known as the "tunding bill" as im politic, unjust and oppressive, and Syi" inXi.of Thirteenth Grand Annual Fair I'or Loss of Appetite, Dyspepsia, Indigestion, Depression of Spirits and General Debility, in their various forma, FliKRO-PlIO.Sl'IIOKATKD Elixik of Cal isava. made by Camvkll, Uazaku tfe Co., Kcw York, and sold by all drug gists, is the best tonic.

Dr. Tutt's Fills are composed , of many ingredients. Prominent among them are Sarsaparilla and wild cherry, so united as to act together ; tho one, through he its admixture with other substances, purifying and purging ; while the other is strengthening the system. Thus these Pills are at the same time a tonic and a cathartic, a de sideratum long sought for by medical men, but never before discovered. In other words, . they do the work of two medicines and do it much better than any two we know of for they remove nothing from the system but impuri ties, so that while they purge they also strengthen and hence they cause no de bility and are followed by-no reaction.' Dr. Tutt's .Fills have a wondeful influence on the blood. They not only purify without weakening it, but they remove all noxious particles from the chyle before it is converted into fluid, and thus makes impure blood an utter impossibility. As there is no debilita tion, so there is no nausea or sickness dition of the State's resources ; and we are m iavor oi ana demand the submission of the question of the financial obligation of West Vir ginia to Virginia to the supreme court of the United States for de cision. MATEIlIALi DEVELOPMENT. We are in favor of the develop ment of the material resources, of our state, which under the rule of the Conservative party and its pre decessors, have lain dormant. , The rjairie&of coal; lion and. , otherjnin crais, me vub water-power, ana tne many other, material , resources of the state, which exist in rich pro lusion on every hand, need but en terprise and capital to develop them, and thus make Virginia one of the greatest manufacturing states in the Union. To this end, we are in iavor of such liberal legislation as shall tend to encourage the invest mentof capital in miningand manu facturing operations, and of general laws of incorporation, together with such a liberal spirit on the part of our people as shall invite 'men of enterprise to come and dwell among US. REFORM IN TIIE ADMINISTRATION OF JUSTICE, , We are in - favor of reform in the administration of justice in this State, and an enforcement of the State constitution in this respect. which will secure impartial justice to an, irrespective of race, color, condition or political sentiment, We favor the election of the presi dent, vice-president, and all other omcers oi the government, as far as possible, by the direct vote of the people. ARBITRATION. . i We approve and endorse the noble and humane policy inaugurated by general tyrant's administration. whereby all international disputes shall be made the subject of arbitra tion, thereby preventing the dread havoc or war. FEDERAL COURTS OPEN TO ALL. The Federal courts should be ac cessible in all the States, to all citi zens on appeal for redress of wrongs or protection of rights, in cases, where, upon a proper showing, equity demands it. REFORM IN STATE LAWS. We demand reform in State laws in order to secure fair elections, by the abolition of partisan supervisors, to enable every voter to exercise the right of suffrage according to the dictates of his own conscience.1 or THE ' .
