C, re turned home last Tuesday. The continueJ cold weather Las made a big hole m the editor's woodpile and a word to the wise is sufficient. . - Dr. Howell, recently of Cherry, ville, who had been off to Atlanta for the past month, was in Lincoln -ton this week Miss Vivian Mauney of Gaston College, passed through Lincolnton last Saturday, enroute for Cherry ville to v'sit.her parents. The Mfcthodiijta are going to build a parsonage in Lincolnton iu the near future. The location is, we believe, not yet definitely settled. Proceedings of the General Assembly will be found on the 4th and editorial pages of thii paper. We publish only such as we deem of interest to the general reader. Dr. J. M. Pressley, who haa been in New York several months taking a post graduate course of Lectures, returned home last FrK day and his numerous friends are glad to have him at home again. Mr. J. T. McLean, Bible Agent for Evangelist Fife, returned home from Einstou thia week. The meet ings, it seems, were not as success ful at Klnatou as elsewhere. Mr Fife begins a aeries of meetings at Lexington next Suuday. Mr. A. Nixon, tax collector, ia in the western part of the county this week hunting up the taxes. We saw him start oil with a pitcblork last Monday, and we presume, therefore, he will "fork it in'? iu no imall sums before hereturna. A special from Shelby to the Charlotte Chronicle say a that on laat Monday night Charles Williamson, a young white man, shot and killed bis brother, Eraetus Williamson, at Washburn's store, about niue miles from Shelby. They were drinking. Mr. Robt. Haydn, of the Char lotte Chronicle ha9 resigned his po fcltion as editor of that paper and has accepted a position as editor of the Journal of Commerce, of Balti more. Mr. Haydn is a bright writer and a clever gentleman, a well as a live, wideawake editor. Our best wishes go with him to his new fiild. We have received a copy of the report of Western North Carolina Asylum, at Morgantou. The board of directors speak well of Dr. Mur phy and his assistant?, and the re- port shows that the institution has been u great blessing to the State. It is proposed to the present Gener. al Assembly to change the name to "State Hospital at Morgantou.'' The change will no doubt meet with gen eral approbation. Maj. J. C. Cobb and wife and Mrs. D. Matt. Thompson, her son, Dorman, and adopted daughter, Lucy, left Lincolnton thi week for Gainsvil!e,FIa: Maj and Mrs. Cobb will take a pretty general tour over the State ot Florida, and Mrs. Thompson will spend the time durs ing her absence with her husband, Prof. Thompson, v;ho has charge of the Graded Schools at Gainsville. We wish them all a pleasant trip and a safe return home. r Gill Thomas, the ''Musical Phei nomenon," who gave an entertain meDt at the Academy a few yeara ago, will give an exhibition at the Court Uon.se nrxt Wednesday night Jan. 23, for ihti twneflt of t he Y.

Iioke, after having lived, as wo believe, a good Christian life, a good member ot the Episcopal chnrcli, a good wife, a good mother, a good neighbor, a good citizen, aud one of the very best members of Ilh.kory Giove Al liance. She was buried at St. Paul s Episcopal church in Lincoln Co. "I heard a voice from heaven, saying unto me. Write : From heucefoith blessed are the dead who die in the Lord : Even bo, saith the Spirit, for they rest from their la bora.'' Hickoey Grove Alliance- non. c, i.. lviuon. We are pleased to note that our esteemed Representative has been placed on some important commits tees in the house. The committees to which he has been assigned are the Committees on Privileges and Elections aud on Banks and Currency. "To Flffht The India us.- Two of Lincoln county boys tak ing it into their heads to euter upou the service of the U. S. Army, started out on their mission laat week and the result of their proced ure furnished the Charlotte Chroni cle with the following item of news: "Chief of Police Griffith, yester day received a telegram form C. L. Henner, at Mt Holly, to watch for two boys, aged 15 and 16 years, f and if fouud, to arrest them. Police Irvine was on band at the arrival of the train, but the boys weren'c. They afterwards reached thia city, and in 20 minutes after they landed here were arrested at the house of Geo. Forman, by Po lice Irvine. Oue of the boys was named Hoov er, and the other Wilson. They ran away from their home 9 miles above Lincolnton, Tuesday morn ing and were not missed until too late to overtake them on the road. When taken in charge yesterday by the policeman they were thor oughly imbued with the idea that the United States needed their services, and were, they said, start ing west to help fight the Indians. Their outfit consisted ot au old valise, a few matches, and a barlow knife. Thus armed tbey were pre pared to do and die in the name of their country, but their career was cut short, as they were joined here by irate relatives who took them back to the parental roof.7' IXowMany Bales? We want every cottou buyer in Lincoln county to furnish us with the Dumber of bales of cotton bought by him during the last year. We have the number from Denver, which is 300. We waut also, as near as possible, the average price paid per pound. It will only cost you a postal card and we hope you will kindly furnish ua with these facts and we will giye them to our readers. A Pleasant Occasion. Ed. Courier : At an early hour on Jan. 15, there seemed to be an unusual stir m our vicinity. We could hear the noise of buggies, and the shouts of the merry crowds in the distance, and it eeetnsd that all were attractnd to one common cen tre the residence cf Mr. P. A. Helms. The writer was not for gotten by the party. We were iu vited to a seat in a buggy, aud soon we were wending our way toward the home of Mr. Henry Leonhardt'a. We learned that the next point on our way was Fsq. Foster's, aPd that it would be our pleasure to see Mr. Henry Helms; and Miss Etta White united iu the holy bonds of matri mony. Esq.. Foster performed his part in his usual pleasant manner, and made ns feel, should Cupid cause as to seek the nuptial relation, we would call to see him. We now turned our course, and after a pleasant drive, tound our selves again at the home of Mr. Helms where Mrs. Melms and her lady frie?id3 had prepared a table freighted with delicious viands .We all did our part well at the table, and spent the remainder of the day in pleasant chat around the fireside. As the shades of knight closed in upon ui?, and we were enjoying the pleasures of a comfortable home, our attention was directed to delightful music, by a string band, just out3ide the window near the happy pair. The final scene was a grand sere nade composed of bells, horns, &c. This closed a dav loner to be remembered by the people cf that 1 community. H. Ileal lXufcoii I lie Itlae -Walee Work. We have nlways thought that there would be a time when Lin colnton would make a move forward and we have retsnnsto believs that that time lfl now upon u.. Here are some of the evidences ot the certainty of the impending boom, and the records are here to prove them. About three years ago Mr. J. C. Fields came here from Florida and purchased what was known as the Postell property for about $650.00. Last week Mr. Fields sold the same 'or about 1500.00 without having made any material improvements. The purchaser is Mr. S. H. Hopkins. Mr. S. G. Finley has purchased from Maj. J. C. Cobb about 4 acres ot land lying iu the Southeastern part of town, between the C. O. railroad and the street running from the Piedmont Seminary by Rev. R. Z. Johnstons. Mr. Finley has divided his purchase into lots and already has bids on three or tout lots two ot which will be closed out in a fw days. There ia not now a desirable dwell ing house in town, to our knowledge. A house for rent never goes abegg iug here, aud this is the best evi dence of the town's attractiveness. A petition signed by the majority ot the property owners of the town and others has gone to the Gen eral Assembly of N. C, asking that the town commissioners be allowed to order an election to issue bonds for the purpose of establishing a system of water works. This, we believe, is the most progressive step the town has taken for many a day, and if carried through, as there is now no doubt that it will, it will give au impetoa to Lincolnton' prosperity, such as it haa not before known. Hurrah for Lincolnton ! A Car 1 From I. I, Davit. Mr. Editor : I desire through your columns to state that the six years aud six months, I was sta tioned at Lincolnton, was as pleas ant a time aa any one could wish to spend. I commenced my first bus mess, in trade, with the firm then known aa Beal & Edwarda, and contiuued as long as they remained in business, without one feature of dissatisfaction on either aide, nd from thence to other firms, yea, I believe that I have dealt with every firm in Lincolnton, and am glad to say I do not wish to be treated auy better anywhere, than I was treated there, and through your columns 1 wish to return to them my thanks. I shall never forget Lincolnton, and the kindness I have received. Now sir, please send the Courier to my address I am uow teaching aud preaching at thia place. Yours, I. D. Davis. Governor of New York Will Go to tbe Senate. New York, Jan. 19. In the Democratic caucus this evening Governor David Bennett Hill was nominated for U. S. Senator to suc ceed Senator Evart9. The nomination was made by ac clamation. It is understood that the Govern or will accept. Mr. Evarta was renominated for Senator by the Republican caucus touight. Later : Hill has been elected. Don't experiment with your health. You may be sure of the quality of your medicine, even it you have to take much of your food ou trust. Ask your druggist for Ayer's Sarsaparilla, and no other. It 13 the standard blood-purifier, the most effective and economical. The Farmers' Alliance in North Carolina is happy in having able friends and helpers amongst the lawyers of the State, and it is in debted to its friends in the legal profession for eminent services ren dered to its cause. But it is per haps indebted to no one of these more deeply than to Col. Harry Skinner, of Pitt county. Col. Skin ner has many of the qualifications for leadership. He is clear beaded, true sighted, brave and faithful to the people. We predict for this talented young North Carolinian a brilliant future in his county's ser vice. Progressive Farmer. The beautiful glossy sheen, so much admired in hair, can be se cured by the use of Ayer's Hair Vigor. There is nothing better than this preparation for strengths ening the scalp and keeping it free from dandruff and itchiDg erup tions. IVoile rroi ti To ltutli In lUil an1 on flie Sireels.
