The day previous to the one referred to, a crate of eggs shipped from some point in North Carolina. was received by the company at its office. The eggs were packed in cotton seed, and had been shipped seven days previous to their arrival at Jacksonville. "T,he next morning when Mike Daniels, a clerk in the express company's office, went to work, he was surprised to hear the chirp of young chickens in the room. Making an investigation he found that the chirps came from the crate of eggs received the eyening before. Open ing the crate the diseoyery was made that quite a number of the eggs had hatched, while many more weie be ing pipped by the young chicks in side, and that the whole crate of eggs was in process of transforma tion into a crate of chickens.

They were of all colors black, white, yellow, striped, etc. and made a most unique col ection.

"May I look at the other place before we ascend to eternal happiness?" asked the editor. "Yes," said the angel. So they went below and skirmished around taking in the sights. The angel lost track of the editor and went around hades to hunt him up. He found him by a big furnace fanning himself and gaz ing with rapture upon a lot of peo ple in the fire. There was a sign on the furnace which read, "Delinquent subscribers." "Get a move on you," said the angel, "we must go." "You go on." said the editor, "1 aui not coming."

Duke Vanderberg, of Cabarrus county, says the Charlotte Observer, is a religious man in his way. He kept last Ascension Day, so be says, a djy not generally cbseryed b Ca barrus county farmers. He went Gsliing on that day instead of going to work as usual. His religious zeal was rewarded by the capture of an immense carp, about the biggest carp eyer caught in the Rocky river. By means of an old scoop net he g')t the fisb onto the bank, when this extraordinary thing happened, according to Duke, and any man who keeps Ascension Day will tell the truth : When Duke stooped oyer and took the fish by the gills he says "hit-hit-hit r-r-riz on hit's tail end an' th-th-ththrowed me on m-m-my bsb-back an' got away. An' hit m-m-m-made me so dd d-d m m-m-m-mad that I j-j-j-jest went bsback homejan' w-w. worked 1-I-like h-h-b-h 1 a'll day." Secing.Stars in Daytime. From Lincolnton the correspon dent to the Charlotte Observer writes : "A very strange phenomenon was observed here on Saturday about 3 o'clock. Not a cloud was seen and the sun was snining, and the thermometer legiatered about 96 in the coolest place that could be found. Several little girls were playing about the back yard, one of whom exclaimed: 'Ob, look at the stars !' Your correspondent went to the yard and looked np. Three beauti ful stars greeted his eyes, one of which fell and exploded. In falling toward the earth it seemed to tnrn over. It resembled a burning balloon in the air. No More Lawn Parties., It was decided at a recent session of the board of county commission ers, that no more lawn parties could be held on the court house lawn, for any purpose. This the commission ers had a right and we suppose thought waa the proper thin? to do. Now, if this honorable body of gov ernors would prescribe something to cure the people from grazing Etock on said laws, it wou'd make things appear quit different you know, and moie in accord. Everything should feast in green pastures, and there should be' no discrimination. wai Alarmed the People Were. - Few white people in the city knew of the meeting that was held by the Zion HiJl MetbodiBt (colored) on Sunday morning last, and when the bell began ringing about 5 o'clock, and continued to ring so long, people in the West end of the city became alarmed, thinking something serious was happening, many of whom went to the church to find out the cause of the bell ringing atsuch unseemly hours. This day-break meeting is a new feature to many of our psople. But He WaaBatilyScared. A Mr. Perry who lives about ten rmles out on the Mt.

A Touug Couple, Who, Voder Many Difficulties, Were Married Here This Afternoou. A Standahd reporter inn upon a little weary looking fellow on the street this afternoon, who - wore a very sad expression on his face. The reporter was at once struck with it and began quizzing the young man, who at length revealed to us his troubles. With his bonny bride he came all the way from Rowan county for the license, but owing to the youthful appearance of the litt tie fellow they were refused him. Here he was and what next to be done he didn't know. With the re porter accompanying him we found Mr. Jobn M Miller at Cannonville, who certified to the prospective ap plicant's age. After the license bad been pro cured, the reporter, as best man, wa Bent for a magistrate, as that was the next step. Not long afterwards Esquire Caleb A Pitts was found and Mr. Ira B Trexler and Miss Fannie S Bostian, both of Rowan county, were pronounced man and wife. No longer is the face sad and drawn, nor the blnshing bride uneasy, for eyerything is "fixed" and the happy couple are now far on their way homeward. The groom is a half brother to Jiev. P M Trexler, once pastor of Trinity Reformed church of this city. Esquire Pitts was eyen more timid and excited than were the couple,as this waa his first marriage, but he calmed down. As a sort of preliminary, the Squire said: "Mar riage is an ordinance instituted by God, in the garden of Eden; the Lord saw that it was not good for Adan to be alone and he created Eve. You will have to cultivate each other and will have duties to perform, both pleasant and un pleasant." All this happened in the sheriff's office Tuesday afternoon. The S. p. batter field Case.

Cards for the 10th. The out-of-town cards for another brilliant marriage to take place in the First Presbyterian church were issued yesterday: Miss Ida Miller McDonald and Mr. Chas. O Hook, of this city, being the contracting parties. The cards are beautifully engraved and the date mentioned on them is October 10th. Charlotte Observer. Miss McDonald is a daughter of Mr, and Mrs. Ed. McDonald, who once lived in this city. She is pleas antly remembered here by hosts of friends and former associates as be ing one of the most charming of ber sex. This famous architect has drawn his plan, specified bis purpose and has Hook-ed a heart that has been fished after aa few others in this great sea of life. Fifty Dollars in Ducks. The Raleigh Observer tells of the supposed loss sustained by a society young man: A young gentleman in this city a few days ago sent to the laundry a pair of white pants, in the pocket of of which was a roll of greenback amounting in all to $50. A little while latter discovering his mistake, he rushed to the laundry, told bis story with great excitement, and was conducted to the steam machine through which the pants were nn going rapid repairs. They were taken out, the pockets were searched and the greenbacks looked more like a mess ot turnip salad than they did like hard earned money. But they were gradually straightened out, and will no doubt, in the next few d lys be recognized by some of our merchants who may be so lncky as to exchange their goods for them, by the washing machine wrinkles in them, Perfect Health.

DK. J. F. KlNCHKLOB, Conway, Arlc Th Centaur Company, 77 THE ASSIGNMENT. laventory of Property Filed Batur day Total AxfiotH About 8260,000 Inabilities Abont $375,000. The inventory of property belong' ing to tbe firm of Wallace Bros, was filed by B F Long, Esq., assignee, Saturday, and showed the total as seta to be, as near aej can be judged, $260,000. This does not .-nclnde abont $300,000 worth of mining stock, the real value of which can not be estimated, as well as other chattels of like nature. The assets as given above are those of notes, accounts and stocks of value, real and personal property and office fix tures. If the accounts, court orders, notes, etc., could be realized on and the usual methods employed, as be fore tne assignment, there would be no trouble about straightening np the affairs of the firm. Many, in deed most, of the country merchants settled with the firm in produce, and roots and herbs which they could easily handle at a profit. The business having stopped, everything is placed on a cash basis and nence the shrinkage. If arrangements could be made by which the firm could resume business, they would soon re-establish themselves and pay off the indebtedness. They have an established business and an im mense trade. Their best trade iB daring the fall and winter and they will miss that trade now. The estimated liabilities are $275 000. As all claims and accounts must be sworn to and filed, it is im possible to get at the exact amount It is thought that the liabilities will be greatly in excess of assets as fall value cannot be realized at a forced cash sale. The sale begins Septem ber 25th. Statesville Landmark. Goes Free. This a sad, sad story the Press Visitor ot Raleigh, tells of young Sally McCullough. Alienated by her waywardness from the affections of her kinspeople; scorned and re viled by the man who had betrayed her, there was no place in this wide world of Christianity where she could secure treatment for her little child, dying in her arms. Even the hospital authorities refused her ad mission.
