We are pleased to learn that Dr. John Hines, agent of the Memphis and Charleston and Texas short lines of railway who has been for some days confined to his room with sickness is convales cent and hopes to regain hi usual health in a short time. Reduction of Wages. We hear it rumored that the Rich mond and Danville Hail Road Co., has determined to reduce the wa ges of Its employees, on their North Carolina section ten per cent. We deeply regret that this step has hum tul'on of thi tino 't wn hear that the Company are driven to it, on account of the great falling iff in the way of tra:i.iortation. We trust that the reduc tion may lie teniKrary audthat before the lajeofinany montfw everything will regain Its wanted activity. Oil.

However, we will leave Umt for thc .t ttlH, Imk fur ! something better in the future. By leaving Memphis on the early train, you have a fine opportunity, to see the country in the northern jKirtion- of Mississippi and Ala bama. The first place of auy no tice is the Grand Junction in Ten nesee where the Miss. Centnd Rail- ! way cross.'s the Memphis and Char ' leston Road. At this jmint, you are allowed twenty miuutes, far break fast, at the Cutnby Hou-e, and the moderate price of one dollar is paid for the same cLiks and quality of a meal that ought to be purchased for , twenty-five cents. After our meals are finished, and passengers seated, the alarm for departure is given by the engineer, and we soon find our selves moving eastward at a rapid rate. The next town of interest is historic Corinth in Miss., where the Mobile &. Ohio Railway crosses the M. A C. From the birds eye view, we got from the ears it seem ed, fo show evident signs of life, and business movements ; several new buildings .'seemed to be in "r-w teflon. rhurdwaMwJi Lchthuy are . taki-a a nd HTxW mite v- ble -Which Ts always a true impulse of progress.

Joseph Jaques, President of this line of Road. The Capt. is a high toned gentleman thoroughly practicable in all of his notions which has been perfectly demonstrated in his management of Railway affairs. The taint of corruption has never touched bis ad ministrative ermine. A jolly fel low on the train in speaking of him said he would trust "old Ja ques with the State of Tenn., and require no bond but his own." Night again overtakes us at Bris tol, where we change ears for Lyuchburg &. Norfolk, here we strke the line of the little Giant Railway Magnate Gen. Mahone. Now for a splendid ride over the mountains and through the beau tiful valleys of Va. Night prevent ed our having a view, although we had h luii moon to aid us. Morning dawned upon us nearly in sight of Lynchburg, here we only pause a short time, and start for tho seaside, arriving here in the evening in time to enjoy a good supper at the National Hotel, kept by Holt IJros. true tyiies of Va,, gentlemen, and first class Hotel keepers. We have but little time to devote to Noifolk, but will say we were treated well by every one we were thrown in contact with. So thus ends our plc&sant trip, over the Va., and Tenn., Air Line from the Miss., to the Sea-shore, one that any traveller would.enjoy.

We learn that sev eral of 'the Tobacco Factories at Durhams and most of the Cotton Factories in the State have suspen ded orierations, owinir to the scarci ty of currency. P. S. Since the above was writ ten we have learned that the Dur ham Factories have not suspended. Dull. We are informed by Geo. T. Jones, Esq., agent of the North Carolina Division of the Richmond and Danville Railroad in this city. ! j that the shipments over the road for the past week have greatly fal len off. It is supposed that the present low prices of cotton and the dull times with our merchants is the cause. Churning Machine. J. L. Britt and son, of Raleigh, have a patent for a new double rotary and reciprocating churn. The inven tion consists of a peculiar arrange ment of supports for the dashers, and operating mechanism com bined, and unites theefforts of both to facilitate the process of churning. It is very Mmple and cheap. Tin; Tremaine Brothers. Tlce Gentlemen are announced to appear in this city on Tuesday evening the 11th inst.

Too Ij.tk. A regular correspon- dent Qf the s;jVj7 (f (he Ayc of this t.. oyep tJu; init!aU T. II. P.," is rather hard upon the late (iift Conc(.rt at our State Fair. It is 1 much to bo regretted by those who ,,,UL , . " .u- ! invested their money in thus enter- ; prise a.nd drew blanks, that " T. j H. P." did not warn them in time. I If I 1.. l-r,o,v. nnrrmvlv r tlsc.ipc1 bt-ing in for it, he would ll tic I'.nj . - - . . . doubtless tremble for us. Why the f.ut jS there was one, only one, little circumstance that prevented us from being a ticket holder in that awful concern, and that was that we could not possibly raise the dol lar. As it is, it turns out very well ; but just suppose we had gotten hold of that dollar, and had not known the sentiments of " T. II. P.," why the consequences would have been tremendously awful. We knew that some of our best, V T , " i I thosc erne' 1 Durham bull., Ac, .or the nimet and we had no idea there was any- j thing wrong in it. Never mind, the warning conies in time for the Wilmington Fair. We had some idea of going there if possible, and we intended to invest in their Gift Enterprise, but we must give it up now. There is otie thing we can do, however. We can hold the next dollar we get until they have . .,:, x.r.:-k the benefit of tho "Heathen Chi nee," and we can invest it in the grab bag. We know there cau't be any harm in that, if there wa-', to be sure, "T. II. P." would let ui know it. We want a law passed that any man or woman who knows any thing for the public good shall make it known in time ; if not, he or she shall not be allowed to tell It at all. we well recollect that during the war we took any quantity of paper money that had written on it pay able " six months after a treaty of a.'ace." Hardly anybody would say they doubted it then, but just as soon as the Yankees came, folks said they knew all the time it was not of any account. We are op posed to ex post facto talk, as we are to ex post facto laws. Both, in our opinion, should be made un constitutional. If there is any.dan ger to the public, folks should give warning beforehand. As our old friend, Lieut. Gov. Brogden, would quote ' Let names, and sects and parties fall. And the public good be all in all." A little negro boy, Sam Purnell, living on the plantation of Mr. M. Purnell, about eight miles from Weldon, was crushed to death in running gear of a cotton gin on Friday last, says the Weldon News. The Laurlnburg &nUhener says : Our farmers in this section have gathered and secured several hun dred thousand pounds of hay, which give them feeling of inde pendence.

Jiocmoke Ar. Accident. As the R. & G. R. R., cars were coming into the depot here on luesday, a horse and buggy were run into. lwo young men were in the buejry at the time.

Resigned A telegram received yesterday by Rev. Dr. Moran from Dr. Jos. Iloldish, Principal Secreta ry of the American Bible Society, New York, states that Rev. P. A. Strobel has resigned his position as Agent of the tex:iety, the resigna tion to take etrect January 1, 1874. This action, we learn, is the result of a protest made by several minis ters or this citv against the longer retention of Mr. Strobel in the posi tion. Reference was made 10 this matter in these eolumnssome weeks since. Mar msc. The Surry Wsitor says: On last Monday the Blue Ridge Mountain was covered with snow for inches deep, and remained white for several days.

We were shown yesterday a curiosity in. the shape of a pig with eight feet and legs, four ears, two tails and two bodies from the shoulders back. These, including the two bodies, are per fectly distinct. Two of the fore feet and legs are on the back of the : animal, while two of the ears are ; on the side and two on the top of' the hind. The hesid, legs and feet are all well formed. The pig, which has iheappearance of having been dead for sometime and is in a sort of semi-iietrilied stute, is alb-' gether one or the greatest curiosities we have ever seen. It was pickid up on Princess street yesterday by a j colored youth by the name ot Wii-j liana Eddie, who should send it to liana ixtdie, who should send it tod kvnrn i z i in 'fWTMrriQtf' xsewbern last, near iar Creek, In Ilydeeoun, ( ty.

Logan, of Cleavcland county, passed through here en route for Raleigh, whither he was conveying one jonn nanipiou, wo years imprison ment in the Penitentiary for the crime of being too much married. Champion is a carrotty headed, awkward, clownish looking fellow, of about oVi years of age, with little appearance of the fascinating Lotha rio he must have been to win his three wives. When only fourteen years of age, he entered the bonds of matrimony with a young woman of Mitchell county; but the bonds failed to bind him sufficiently, and he married Mrs. Champion No. 2. Becoming tired of both, he came to Cleaveland and took unto himself a third rib, which was a little too much for the law to wink at, and John fell a victim to his fondness for the nuptial tie. While breaking stone in the Penitentiary he will learn that it i3 better to die a batchelor than to be too much mar ried. Cold Blooeed Murder. :On Saturday morning last, Oct. 2oth, a cold blooded murder was commit ted between Lake Landing and Middleton, in Hyde county, under the following circumstances as we are reliably informed : "It seems that Wm. D. Ballance and W ilson B. Lucas, live neighbors and that between their land is a narrow lane or driveway, the right to use which, by each, was inherited with the land, it has also been a custom for parties owning land in the rear to pass this lane. On the day previous to the murder, Ballance had, with out proper authority, forbidden ono of those persons permission to pass the lane. Lucas, -knowing that the third person had a right to the lane as well as Ballance and himself, told the man to pass through with his cotton, whereupon Ballance for bade him parsing, and made threats mat ne wauiu siop me icuiu i attemoted to pass, when Lucus im mediately raised a double barrel shot gun and shot Ballance through : t t -A the abdomen, Killing mm huiioo Instantly.

While traveling recently in the interior of the State we have been surprised at the great ages at tained bv persons whom we met. ranging from 80 to 90 years. We believe that from the counties of Cumberland, Robeson, Richmond I and Moore we can raise a regiment of men even eicrhty years of asre. and we believe that we can fill all the commissioned offices with sol diers of the war of 1812, and on the occasion of their being "mustered in" we could promise them an ad dress by an ex-member of the United States Congress, who is over 90 years of age. . Wheeler records tne age or l'rid- gen, of Bladen county, who died as 122. Angus Finlayson died near Long Street, in Cumberland, recent ly who reeched 106 years. Rev.

Sixty cents a day is considered good wages for a workingnian in any of the European countries, except Great Britain, where the wages are somewhat higher. In the Tyrol silk region and in Italy they often do not get more than ten cents. In the coun try in Germany ten cents is the common paj. Women there often get but five cents. In Sweden men often work from four o'clock in the morning till nine in the evening, and do not get more. During the late war many poor women in Ber lin were hired to knit stockings for the soldiers for five cents. The profit of the poor who keep petty shops, sell trinkets in the street, or act as sutlers, do not average more than three or four per cent. Bar bers in Berlin, since the raising of their prices, get five cents for hair cutting and two and a half cents for shaving. Servants at hotels get from three to eight dollars a year. Servant girls in private families often get but ten dollars a year. Sleeping Rooms. A leading medical journal says that sleeping rooms should always be arranged, if possible, so as to be turned to ward the north. Frequently, in cases of sickness, a person will find it impossible to obtain rest if his head is in any other direction, and often a cure is retarded for a long time. SPECIAL NOTICES.
