Tomorrow. No grander, nobler event ever took place in the history of our city, than that which will be ushered in tomor row. It will be the inauguration of an occasion which is destined, in our opinion, to be more productive of good results, not only to Raleigh, but to the "Old North State" than any thing that has ever taken place in our. borders. Tomorrow we are to take the initiative in offering the hand of welcome to thousands who come hither to see for themselves specimens of the treasures of onr soil and the work of our artisans.

Let Ral eigh stretch forth the baud of wel come and unstinted hospitality to the greatest extent. Let the opening day be indicative of the entire Exposition a cordial greeting to all. A Suggestion. It has been suggested as a matter of public convenience and of profi' to the street oar company, that it would be better for the cars to leave the western surburbe about 6 o'clock in the morning, so that persons whose presence in the city is required at seven o'clock, can take ad vantage of it. Moat of our work shops, get to work at that hour, and hence those engaged in them must leave their homes before seven. There are numbers of people in the surburbs who work in the city. If the company can arrange this with out inconvenience, it will be advan tageous all around. SPECIAL NOTICES. Shoes, Shoes, Shoes, all prices at 4t Woolleott & Son's.

We hear that a parcel of colored boys are in the habit of taking cows to graze in what is termed "Saunders old field," in the northwestern section of the city. These boys are at times very troublesome to the neighbors. Yesterday they had a difficulty with a little Bon of Mr. E. M. Martin, who resides in the. vicinity and treated the little fellow quite badly. A servant woman of Mr. Martin interfered, and 1t is stated that the boys turned on her giving her some blows. Now this is a matter that should be looked in to. We believe the field is in the cor porate limits. If so, the grazing of cattle in it should be stopped. Dress Goods and Shoes.
