Death ot One of the Missionaries at Waltakeri Strlekea with Mai anal Fever, he Relies oa the Olive Oil . Treatateat aad ; He8ome Ireaas Aboat the Mormon Work in ; Oar ' Christiaa lAA.''tt.i Chaa. E. Bo bason, one of the Mormon missionaries who passed through Char lotto sometime sinee, and who got the benefit of a one column broadside from this paper, died yesterday morning in Whitakers, S. C The golden cord that bound him to earth was severed at half past 1 o'clock'' and . his 'immortal spirit was' "carried-' to Abraham's bosom. The deceased was a Mormon divine sent sometime ago from Southern Idaho to the country surrounding Bock Hill, 8. Cl, to make converts to the Mormon faith. What, has ' been the reward of hia labors we are nnable to say, -except that he contracted malarial fever from which he died. We suppose . his death is attributable to his treatment. ' Ac cording to the statement of a Mormon convert a physician is not recognized in their midst. The "elders" .are their ''great physicians -T they anoint with oil and it cures any disease, no matter how malignant. - For their anointing purposes they use olive oil. and in the ease of this unfortunate missionary it proved worthless. It would- no doubt be a wise movement on the part of the elders to change the brand, and as a good substitute, we would recommend Wizard oil, which has the reputation of having wrought many .cures, while olive oil has had no virtue as a panacea since the days of the apostles. ' Our Informant says that he doernot think the Mormons are making many converts , in that vicinity, although there are half a dozen or more fsalnta" laboring Incessantly within one and two miles of Whitakers. , They can be found only among the most Ignorant class of people who, having poor ad vantages, can be very easily , deceived by these oily-tongned ."Latter-Day Saints." Our informant has seen fami lies brought to the station and put aboard the train for their distant Mor mon homes. Ills heart would almost cease to beat on beholding a little child in its mother's arms being carried away from a home of purity to be made a demon. He has also seen a fair and blushing maiden, though simple, yet dear to our people, carried to the de graded realms of Mormonism. These Mormon elders tell the Ignorant and credulous people that they can give eyes to tbe blind, ears to the deaf, make the lame leap, and even raise the. dead, The good people in that section of the country in which these Mormons are working are . considerably exercised about the presence of the Mormons. To do good work Christian missionaries do not need to go far from homo. - Sarriage of a Fopalar Jewish Coople. The event in the city yesterday was the marriage of Mr. Willie Gans. of Bal timore, to Miss Rick a, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. H. FrankenthaL, "The cere mony was performed by Bev. Dr. Levy. or Charleston, according to the Jewish rites, at the residence of the bridaa parents. In celebration of the event the Interior of the house was most hand somely decorated with festoons of flowers and evergreens, and the large front window was ornamented with the United States colors. The ceremony was set for one o'clock, p. riL, and by that time the house 'was fairly filled with the invited guests,- who ranged themselves around the room and made way for the entrance ef the bridal party. as the organ struck np Mendelsohn's grand wedding march.

These surrounded the dais, upon which the bridal couple stood, and 'each groomsman held the posts of tbe chuppa under which the ceremony was per formed. After 'placing the ring upon his bride's Anger, the groom broke the wine glass, an old Israelitish - custom. signifying that the marriage tie is so sacred that the contracting parties can no more be separated than the broken glass can be united. When the wedding ceremony was concluded jmd the happy couple had 'received congratulations, the guests were invited to the wedding feast spread by the hostess a banquet that has seldom been equaled In Char lotte.- The bridal presents were numer ous, very handsome and costly. - The bride and groom left oa the after noon train for . tbe North, and after visiting all the principal 1 Northern cities, will reside in Baltimorathehome of the groom.

J The item in a late issue In regard to the1 rapid growth of - carp brought a country friend in yesterday who desires to give his - observations on German carp publicity through the columns of our paper. . He says that "in 1881 Dr. W. B. Fewell, of York county, 8. C assert-; ed that no could take an acre of old land that his father had cultivated In cotton, worth ten dollars, and make it worth one thousand In fish raising. His neighbors laughed at him. bat he is in a fair way to verify his boast. , In 1831 he made a small pond at a cost of not exceeding, Ive dollars, in which he placed seventeen young carp. In the fall of 1833 he took ont one fish that made a mess for hit family. So faxfthis sommer ha haa taken seventy or eighty fish out of the pond of from 10 to 15 inches, long. I went down with the Doctor to feed the fish and jsee what progress they wore making. We polled a seine through the end of the pond and hauled out seventeen fine fellows, three of which made a , bountiful feast for a dozen persons. The Dogtor haa stocked two other ponds with carp, and one with native Catawba river fish. All his ponds do jiot, cover more than an acre, and I believe I. would giro the in terest on one thousand dollars for his fish supply, even next year. In a few years his ponds will yield quite a little revenue. About the average length and weight of the fish is ten inches and one pound for one year olds, and fifteen Inches and two pounds for two years." Sells Oreas .
