They say that the storms would come nearly al out the time, whether tbe sun crosses the line or not.

IfeThe performance of "Jim th i We s terner" was warmly erected by fcboM present at Metropolitan Ball W night. Tbe audience, however, wt not as large as the company de9rvei They are all first clasB performers and and have left a most excellent im pression among our people. There is some talk of a general conference during the Exposition in the interest of the Worlds fair at Chicago. It is now evident that there will be no appropriation from the di rect tax fund, and surely North Car olina ought not to be unrepresented at the "big show". We liope the conference will be held, and the ques tion of "ways and means" satisfacto lily arranged. For maps, time tables, schedules, first class or emigrant rates to all points East, West, Northwest and Southwest, write to Charles L. Hop kins,travelling passenger agent, A s ie ville, N.

Fiery fighting is now going on and two villages have been wiped out of existence. In the midst of the fighting came the fearful hurricane The German ship J. W. Giidermer stein, was wrecked in Dianira bay. The cutter Hilda was driven ashore and a canoe containing nineteen na.. tives lost. Superior Court. The court ended today, the docket having been cleared and the jurors discharged. It has been a term of much business, but it has been dig patched with the utmost celerity, re flecting great credit upon Judge Whitaker and the other officials. The Visitor takes this opportun ity to acknowledge the kindness shown by the gentlemanly deputy clerk of the court, Mr. Moye, who gave us valuable aid in getting up a report of the proceedings. We can assure him that we most highly ap preciate it. Urbanity is, in our opin ion, one of the chief requisites of a public officer, and Mr. Moye possesses it, even to an unusual degree. New Station House. The time has come when the mat ter of a uew station house for Raleigh should not longer be postponed. It is a subject rough t with too much interest to be allowed longer to lag. Everybody must admit that the pres ent place for the incarceration of of fenders, is a disgrace to the city. It may to some extent be compared to the Black Hole of Calcutta, certainly so far as its damaging effects upon temporary tenants are concerned. A basement room, no matter how much precaution is taken, partakes of dampness and foul air, detrimental to health. Surely the city authorities might find some more eligible place for its offenders. We hope this mat ter may receive prompt attention It has been talked of long enough. We now need action, and as the win ter is coming on, the sooner the bet ter. Wanted. A good reliable man, white or col ored, who understands milking and care of cows. Good wages, comfort able house, permanent job. Also, a boy 17 or 18 years old, who is honest, industrious and reliable. Address, Bill Top Dairy, Raleigh, N. C.x o5S Mayor's Conrt. There was quite a sprinkle of c.ises ' before the Mayor this morning. The case against Ben Robinson, el ored, ;uud others for.an affray at a b.ir room near the depot, was taken up. Several witnesses were examined, all of whom testified that Robinson beat a colored young man named Alonzo Clemmons. It was in evidence that Clemmons had taunted Robinson in the barroom when Robinson ordered Clemmons out. He refused to go out and Robinson pushed him in the street, where the scuffle ensued be tween them. Robinson made a statement in which he said Clemmons came into his store and used words distasteful to him. He ordered him out, and when he refused to go, he put him out. He said be had a stick but had no idea of hitting him, and did not hit him. Clemmons made a statement. He said that Robineon ordered him out; kicked him two or three times. He also struck him with a stick. He never said he would not go out. Robinson was fined $5 and cost. During the trial there were many chronic lookers on, either of whom are capable of inak'cg a living at some employment. Kobinson is a member of the Board of Aldermen of this city. A young man named Rogers from Clinton, not over 17 years old, was found last night in a ditch complete ly overcome with liquor. The Mayor gave him a compassionate talk and warning and let h'm off. It was a sorry sight. Several other cases of disorderly conduct, &c, were disposed off. The case of an affray between Wal ter Howell and A. E. Fowler, near Smith's barroom yesterday, was ta ken up. There were several witness es introduced, showing that Howell used brass knuckles in his attack on Fowler, and, on the other hand it was testified that Fowler had previ ously made threats against Howell. Messrs. Argo and Artnistead Jones were counsel for Fowler and Mr. T R. Pornell for Howell. Both parties were bound over to court in the sum of $200 each. A fine of $80 was imposed upon Howell for carrying concealed weapons. SPECIAL NOTICKS. Choice rosr-s and ot! er cut lowers liouquete, baskets and des'gns.
