A Chatham Eagle. A large e-gle was killed, on lat Saturday, near Byn urn's factory, that measured over six feet from t p to tip. It is not often that eag'es are seen in this section, though we have heai-d of two or three being killed within the past few yt&vs. March Marriages. During the month of March t'tere was quite a brisk business in issuing marriage ;icenses, ten to whites aud six to blanks, which are four more than were issued in th sime month last year. Doubtl- ss it will be duller during the next few months, ut.til .kout November, when the market becomes quite active. Cold Weather. For some days past it has been as cold as December, for several morn ings there b-mg ice nearly half an incb thick, and yesterday mornimr the mercury in the th- rmometer indicated a temperature of 24 degrees. Just to thiitk, ou the sixth of April, thi ther, nometer being e g t d grees fcfiow the freezing j oiat! On la-t Friday it snowed for two hours as hard as we over saw it, quickly cover jt'g everth:c-1' the deptti of one or two inches. Important to Boys. Oar Congressman-elect., Geu. W. R. Cox, hs the appointment of a cadet to the West Poiut military academy, and for the purpose of selecting the most, deserving he will hold a com pet hive examination at Raleigh, on the 12rh day of May. Applicants must be between tbe a;es of seven teen and twenty-two. If any of our Ckathnin boys desire the appoint ment (and it is usually eagerly sought nfcer) let them write to Gen. Cox for further information. We would be glad to see a Chatham boy get the place, for, so far as we know, no one from this county has ever been a cadet at Wes Poiut. An Old Citizen Removed. Not only tbe citizens of this ijame diate community, but of the entire count', will regret to leirn that our venerable fellow-citizen, Maurice Q. Waddell, Esq., has removed from this place to Smitufield, in Johnston coun ty, where he will live with his son, L. II Waddell, Esq. Although not a native of this county, yet Mr. Wad dell had resided here nearly all the seventy seven years of his past tffe, had become thoroughly identified with and devott-d to all our interests, had Irequently been honored with the suffrages of our people, and had be come, as it were, a landmark in Chat ham's history. His manj friends here will sadly miss him, and will no doubt join us in the wish, that in his new home loving hands will so soften the " pillow of his age " that he may yet be spared for many more years of useful life. HI --1 A Military Suggestion. A correspondent makes the follow ing suggi stion about organizing a military company in Chatham, which we commend to the consideration of our young mm: ''Editor Record : As there is at present great activity in military cir cles in the State, and as this is on the increase, I write to make a few sug gestions. A great county like Chat ham, for a number of reasons, should have some military organization and a revival of the Chatham Rifl-s," the members of which command ac quitted themselves so hpnorab y du ring the late war, would be eminent ly proper. In view of the approach ing centenrial ce'ebration of the sur render of Lord Cornwallis at York town, no b tter opportunity for re organization could present itself. Chatham should have at leat one company there." If any members of the old " Chat ham Uiflea" do go to the Y-rktown Centennial next October, they will doubtless enjoy that visit better than when they were at Yorktown in 1801 ftnd'G2. Almost a Fire. On last Monday the chimney of the house, at the Southwest corner of the court-house square -in this place, caught on fire and a spark facing on the roof ignited the old shingles, but the b'aze was fortunately at once seen and was extinguished. A strong w ind was blowing at tbe time, and but for the timely discovery of the fire it would no doubt have consum ed a large portion of our town, as we have no apparatus or organization for extmcruishinsr a fire. Should not this be a warning to us ? And we would suggest that this be a warning to place a fire-proof vault in our new court-house. The Magistrates' Meeting. In pursuance of an Act of the late General Assembly (heretofore pub lished in the Record) the Justices of this county held a meeting at this place, on la-t Monday, for the pur p. -s of considering the question of building a new courthouse. The meeting was called to order by J. A. Woruack, Chairman of the Board of Justices, and the roll being called twenty-nine Justices was announced as present The Chairman stated that a quorum was present there bemg altogether thirty-eight Justices in the county and explained the object of the meeting. He then said that, in order that the Justiees might act in telligently in this matter, be had re quested several exper s, or skil'ed mechanics to examine the present court-house aud report upon its con dition. Mr. Stephen Henley was brst called on for his opinion, and he fit i ted that he had put the new i roof on the court-house w hen the old one was torn off by the tornado six years ago, and in doing this he had fully examiued the wa Is, which be found badly cracked and in so dan gerous a condition that iron rods were placed in the building to k ep them from falling, and but for those rods he thought the walls would h . ve fallen before now : that the walls (not withstanding those rods) weie still cracking and the fissures growing larger, and this would continue be cause the foundation was sinking, not having been properly constructed : and in his opinion the building was decidr dlv unsafe. The Chairman then red the fol- lowing statement given him by Mr. j J. B. Massemore: j To J. A. Womack, Chairman Board I of Justices of Chatham county : Sr: By your request, I have ex-j aniined the court Louse, and have j come to the following conclusions : j I believe the house t be in an un j safe condi'ion. I find that the walls j are broken entirelv in two from the top to the foundation. There is not much over ten feet of sound wall in any one place. I find that at least one of the corners has settled one and a half inches lower than a straight line. The top line of the foundation, on the t-ast side, is very much bowed by settliug at the corners. I fin- that the mortar has lost its virtue in holding the bricks together; it is just like as if the brick had been laid in dry sand. My deliber te opinion is, that the wa5ls are in a v-ry unsafe condition, iable to fall at any time ; I would not insure it to stand till Christinas. Respectfully, J. B. Massemoi:e." Mr. L. B. Bynum was next called on for his opiniou. He stated that he had examined th walls aud agreed entirely wi h'Mr. Henley's statement of their condition. He also s dd that Col. Hicks, the architect at the Peni ten iary, had examined the building with him and pronounced it unsafe. The condition of the court-house was then discussed by Messrs. Pugh, "Womack, Calder and Bryan, the first enree aav- eating ana ine lauer op posing the building of a new one. O. A. Hanner, in order to obtain the opinion of the Justices as t the safely of the building, introduced the following resolution, which was adopt ed by a vote of 20 to 3 : " Re.-olved, by the Board of Jus tices of Chatham county that the court house in said county is unsafe." J. F. Rives then offered the follow ing : "Resolved by the Board of Jus tices of Chatham county, that the County Commissioners of said conn ty be and they are hereby authorized a id empowered, as soon as it is as certained that bonds authorized by an Act of the lat j General Assembly can be made availably or so much thereof as may be necessary, to pro ceed to make all necessary contract for the building of a new court-house in the town of Pittsboro : said new house to be on the same site or with in one -fourth of a milo of the same : and the whore cost not to exceed $12,000, exclusive of the material which may be made available in the present court-house." On the adoption of this resolution the roll was called, and the vote wh announced, yeas 25, nays 4. Those who voted in the affirmative were, Justices Burns, Calder, Ellis, Farrar, Gibson, Gilliland, Green, Gunter, Guthrie, Hanner, Houston, Johnson, Rives, Scott C R., Tysor, Wicker, Wilson, and Womack. Those who voted in the negative, were Justices Bryan, Clark, Kirkman and Lineber ry. There were absent and not voting, Justices Ausley, Brasington, Carter, Lane, Mims, Scott J. W., Thomas, West, and Womble. An election was then held for a Justice of the Inferior court, to fill a vacancy, and resulted in the election of J. E. Bryan. On motion the m eting adjourned Given up by Doctors. "Is it possible that Mr. Godfrey is up and at work, and cured by so simple remedy T " 1 assure you it is true that he U entirely cured, and with nothing but Hop Bitters; and only ten days ago his doctors gave him up and said be must die !" "Well-a-day! That is remarkable! I will go this day and get some for my poor George I know hops are good" Salem Post. Commissioners' Meeting.

The Board adjourned to meet again on Satur-ay, the 16th of April. A Long Fast. A remarkable case of abstinence from fiHd is reported at Battle Creek, in Michigan. Last October Mrs. Henrv Ingram had some teeth pulled, and this brought on nausea at the st -mi ch aud inability to retain food. The woman is still alive, having eaten or drank uothing sinoe October. She is nourished by beiug bathed in beef tea, milk, &c, which act by absortion, the quantity absorbed being nearly a quai t a day from these ba'hs. She ! feels a ort ol hunger, which is soon allayed by a bath, after which she i feels as if she had eaten. A bath of water will queuch her thirst. Her stomach is said to be totally paralyzed. The Prohibition Movement. The Legislatures of several States have recently taken action in regard to Prohibition. A despatch from Hartford, Connecticut, dated March 31st say 8: "The House of Representatives to day defeated a proposed constitu tional amendment prohibiting the manufacture and sale of intoxicating liquors." And, on the other hand, a dis patch from Harrisburg, Pennsylania, of the same date: "In the House this evening a joint resolution submitting to the people an amendment to the . constitution forever prohibiting, except for .medi cinal, mechanical and scientific pur poses, the manufacture and sale of intoxicating liquors, parsed a second reading, after considerable discussiou, by a vote of 9S to 38. A number of amendtneuts were offered and re jected, among them one to insert the word "sacramental after mechanical. The N. C.State Life Ins. Co. The eighth annual meeting of the stockholders of the North Carolina State Life Insurance Company was recently held at Raleigh, and we copy from the News and Observer the following deserved compliment to this popular borne institution: "The reports and financial exhibits showed the company to be in excel lant condition, a dividend of seven per cent, being declared on the paia in cash capital, with a corresponding dividend to participating policy holders. The "State Life" has been too long and favorably known to our people to need any special en c mium8 here. Since its organization it has paid nearly one hundred thou sand dollars in death cluiim alone to the widows and orphans of '.he State Every dollar of its funds is loaned out aud invested among our people, while its prompt and honorable compliance with all obligations is well known. With a large and well invested line of assets, it commences another ytar with the determination of pushing its business more vigorously than ever Knowing the company and its officers as well as we do, we heartily endorse and recommend it to the people oi our State. A Repu: beau Senatorial caucus. held Mon lav, decided to continue tbe contest in the Senate for an elecion of officers. Methodist Ministers.
