and the conductor ordered that the car
be locked until its arrival in Charlotte.
When the train ran In at the depot
officers who had been notified by tele

almost suffocated excursionists. As
they stepped into the fresh air the white
man gave his name as George Gable
of New York, and the negro said his
name was Ruf us Roan of Danville, Ta.
They told acting- chief Hill that they
had got into the car at Danville with
an Innocent purpose. But fearing they
had tampered with the contents of the
car. the railroad authorities insisted
they should be locked up until the car
could be examinsd. The matter will

The Kadle suid Axe ia CaBerraa.
A serious and probably' fatal cutting
affrsy occurred in the publlo rosf near
ML Pleasant, Cabarrus county, ; last
Thursdsy morning, between Mr? John
D. Barrier, a school teacher, and Mr.
George Boat, in which "the latter was
badly wounded. : One of Mr. Boat's sons
went to school to Barrier, and Barrier
had whipped the boy, according to some
reports, severely, but to other reports,
not. any worse than he had-whipped
other boys. Be:this as it may; Mr. Boat
armed himself with a stick, Thursday
morning, and went to the school house,
but Barrier not being there, he started
oat to hunt him, and met him in the
road. He at once opened an attack on
Barrier with the stick. Barrier held off
as long as he could, when he.pulled out
his knife and fell upon Bost, cutting
him In the breast and face.- The cut In
the face severed the, internal maxillary
artery, and is an exceedingly dangerous
one. ; Doctors Moose, Barrier and Rose,
of ML. Pleasant, attended the case, and
in the evening called in Dr. Archey for
consultation. .The flow of blood was
not checked until late in the afternoon.
Mr. Bost was reported to be in a criti

The First Play of the Season.
Tbe play season will be opened at the
opera bouse to-morrow " night with
an excellent performance by Arm
strongs Minstrels- forty-one strong.
and m a - full - bouse ; is expected.
This company has already a reputation
on Its new version of minstrelsy. ':; The
Washington Post of tbe 21st Inst, speak
ing of their recent visit to the National
capital, says: It was the first visit of
these minstrels to Washington, and the
performance throughout was exceed
ingly novel and entertaining. The old
stereotyped style of raising the curtain
and displaying a semi-circle of burnt
cork artists is discarded. The opening
burst of music, with the performers,
male and femsle seated amidst flowers,
shrubbery and the musicians in the
rear in pyramidal form wss a refresh
ing innovation. The ballad singing In
tbe first part of the performance was
exceedingly well rendered, all the ar
tists receiving ; encores 'When the
Robins Meet Again,'! by Banks Winter,
was the gem of the evening. Tbe me
lange, or second part performance kept
the house in a roar of laughter until its
close. The : four , planets, - Kennedy,
8beeban, Foster and Hughes are first
class commedians, and their acts are
something above the hum drum variety
style. Fields and Hanson are wonder-

much Interest while here. He was vis

surprised to see him looking so welL A
circumstance that may not be generally

his renowned rider had been ahot from
him. i He fell Into the hands of the
Beauregard or j Moorman ; battery
which was on the ground, and was kept
by them until turned over to General
Jeb Stuart. The writer was a member
of that heroic company, and feels just
pride in all its performances. Another
circumstance of Interest is that Major
Moorman, its then Captain, afterwards
promoted, was the last person who ever
held a conversation of any extent with
the immortal Stonewall, just before he
went into the death-trap. His last
words sddressed to the Captain were,
"IfS time to move He did move-
but, to glory and the grave.

U there Is any one factor in the busl-1
ness of our little city which makes her 1
attractive to the' traveler and Inviting '
to all the world it ls her : hotel accom-1
modation. Our leading hotels have j
already drawn many to the place for a
short stay, that made them acquainted
with our delightful- climate, pleasant
peopie ana ouiex attractions ' waicn
induce the home seeker to settle. A
Petersburgher from the Old Dominion
in a letter ? to the . Petersburg - Mail,
speaking of Charlotte, says :
The city is about half : way between
Richmond and Atlanta, - and is the '
resting place of many weary travelers
on account of its very excellent hotel
accommodations. It Is well supplied
witn -aoteia. -xne unariocce Arouse
eaten .especially for; country people,
and j in external appearance does not
compare with either of the others. The
Buf ord is a very handsome new build'
inz. containing something over fifty
rooms; it is modern in allot its appoint
ments sou is oeauuiuiiy paperea, and
furnished as handsomely as any hotel
you can find and is run by the Messrs i
. 111 . WB ..... i
ecovme isroa. - . -. - -
- The . Central la the largest of the
three, and though an older building, is
quite Imposing in its appearance, and I
furnished handsomely: and welL It i
contains more than -a hundred rooms.
d Its daily arrivals average fifty. A
finer set of gentlemen you would not '
meet in a week's journey than Mr H O
Ecclea, the- proprietor, and his very
efficient corps of clerks. - All of these
hotels: are located on the . principal
street, a ry on. namea in nonor or a
former Governor, now long since dead.
xne city contains about ten thousand
people, is beautifully located. Its streets
are very wide and well laid off. Man v
of the buildings would do credit to a
city ten times its size. The resident
portion of the place is very attractive.
The grounds surrounding private resi
dences are particularly attractive, and i
snow as once to a stranger that the
taste displayed in adorning their places
of business is very far excelled In the
adornment of their hemes.
. "Charlotte, for a city of its size, has a
most excellent Danaing capital, about
uu,uuu. xiavrog occasion to use a
bank, we found its cashier. Mr M P
Fegram, a near connection of our Pe-
gracas, a very owuinj oScer. There is
one daily newepaper here, and we judze,
from its columns of advertisements,
that in point of prosperity, it is equal to '
nuj ia tae estate. ; V ":
