The Durham Baud has gained much uotoriety daring the exposition. The greatest performance of the season next Wednesday night. Look out for the "Sea Qaeen." No decision yet in the merchants1 purchase tax case. It is looked for with a great deal of interest. Sheriff Page is anxiously waiting for you to come forward with your taxes. The "Sea Queen" will be here next week. It will be a grand perfor manoe.

The next Superior Court for Wake county will commence January 11th, 1862. It will be for the trial of crim inal cases.

There will be no cessation in the ef fort to establish a permanent museum in Raleigh to consist of many of the exhibit of the Inter-State Exposi t ion It is hoped that an eligible site may be obtained. A benefit will be given to Prof W H Ord way at Metropolitan Hall on the evening of Dec. 8d. Prof Ord way lost his Galatea outfit by fire at the exposition grounds, Nov. 8tb. We hope there will be a large attendance. It is a great pleasuie to state that the condition of the lads, John Briggd and Carl Stone, has much improved The latter is claimed to be out ol danger, while the former will no doubt recover, if no unforseen troub les are developed. J. Charles Richter, wholesale I um ber dealer. 1826 Van Pelt street, Phil adelphla, Pa., says: I can't speak too highly of Bradycrotine as a head ache cure. nov 25 6t The Seaboard Air Line will sell round trip tickets, for the Christmas holidays, at the rate of four cents per mile one way. Tickets good from December 29th, 30th and 81st, extreme limit January 5th, inclusive. Con tinuous passage in each direction. Our circulation is now rapidly on the increase. As an advertising medium the Visitor is not excelled. Our patrons all say so, and they should know. If you want to build up a good trade between now and the Christmas holidays, send in your ad vertisements early. A. L Ferrell, secretary and regis trar of Board of Health, requests all physicians of the city to please send iu all reports hot later than Monday evening Nov. 8th. By so doing it will materially aid him in m iking his report for the month promptly . We hear it rumored that after the close of the exposition the Hillsboro street line will run to the Agricultu ral and Mechanical College, with a branch line turning off at the site of Temple's store, running far up in Oberlin. This is a good idea, and we believe will be a paying investment. Tile receipts of cotton continue good, with stationary prices, l he receipts for the week are 95 bales against 1194 foT the corresponding time last year. The tot al for the sea son to date is 18,977 bales against 28, iua fnr th um time last vear. The febipments for the week were 888 paies. A cold wave is predicted tonight. The temperature will fall several de grees. The election of D. W. Bain, Esq , as secretary of the Methodist Con ference, was for the ninth term. Some people are predicting snow for tomorrow, but, this deponent sayeth not. Rev. D. L. Bchively will conduct services at Brooklyn M. E Church to morrow evening at 7:30 o'clock. The Fife meetiogs in Oxford, will be held in Centre warehouse of that town which is fixed up for several thousand persons. Mr. Jasper McRary has received a letter announcing the serious illness of his mother at Lexington. He left this afternoon to attend her bedside. The meeting of the Board of Trus tees of the Agricultural and Mechani cal College at the department of agri culture next Thursday will be an im portant one. The verdict in the McDougald mur der case, now in progress at Pavette ville, is watched for with much inter est here. There are now nearly 1,200 bales of cotton on the platform near tha Ral eigh and Gaston depot and it is a busy locality. The industrial issue of the Rocky Mount Argonaut is being widely dis tributed. It is an interesting edi tion. A considerable number of our citi zens expect to visit Wilmington next week, the occasion being "Welcome Week." Dr. H. M. I'aynter will preach at the First Presbyterian chapel, corner McDowell and North streets, tomor row at 7:30 p. m. Mr. A L. Ferrell, of the health bu reau, reports that the health of the city for November has been generally good. Work on the Hargett street electric railway line is fast progressing. The route will soon be in operation, and we learn, will be considerably ex tended. At 3 o'clock tomorrow afternoon Evangelist D L. Schively will con duct religious services at oyster's store, corner of Cabarrus and Mc Dowell streets, opposite the gas house. Barn burning is getting to be al moot an every day occurrence in this section. The most recent case is that of Mr. L. L Dowd, of Mark's Creek Township, who lost his barn by fire last Wednesday night. Mr. Dowd says his loss is quite heavy, and we learn there was no insurance At 2 o'clock this afternoon the em ployees of the Interstate Exposition, presented Gen Cliltonand Secretary Patrick with a handsome gift. The presentation was made by Capt J- B. Hunter and responded to in a happy sty le. That was a genrrous act in mine host Raney, of the Yarboro House, in not charging the northern newspaper men for board, but, it is j ust like him, when he takes a notion, and he iff usually in that hu aor, when the right opportunity offers. Now for a belt lino around the city It would vastly develop the property in the suburbs, and be a source of profit to the electric railway com pany. This has been the xnrieace in all cities in which the sememe has been tried. 9 It was a beautiful umbrella that the ex-Confederates presented to Col J. S. Oatr at the exposition yester day. Sergeant Hamilton made the presentation in a neat lit le speech, which was happily respouded to by Col. Oarr. Attention is directed to the adver tisement of the Southern Soap Manu facturiug Company. The ootnpanv is turning C"t a fine specimen of soap, equal to any of northern manufae tore. It is a home institution and our people,all else being equal .fhoald give it the preference. Read the list of presents. Bulletin. The issue of the bulletin of the North Carolina Department of Ag riculture for November, has made its appearance. It is made up principal ly of the exhibits contributed by the Department to the exposition, and is very valuable for reference. No Tidings. We are informed that no tidings have so far, been received of the where abouts of the wife of Levi Perry the colored woman who mysteriously dis appeared a few days since. It was at one time supposed that she had been d rowned, as it was reported she was seen on Thanksgiving afternoon in the immediate vicinity of Crabtree creek. A careful search has been made, however, and the stream exs amined, with no success. The theory now is, that the unfortunate wo man, being demented, has wander ed off in the woods, or perhaps met her death from exposure. Her bus band, Levi Perry, is a most worthy man, and has much sympathy in his misfortune. It is especially unfortu nate for him, as he has numerous children, most of them young, and needirg a mother's care. Personal mention. There is no material improvement in the condition of Mr. W. T. Mabry. Mr. M. B. Barboe is reported some better. Col. Jno. Robinson, Commissioner of Agriculture is in attendance on t he Methodist Conference. Mr. W. K Jacobson, editor of the Washington, N. C.. Progress, is iu the city. Mr. R. Percy Gray, of Greensboro, is in the city. We had the pleasure of meeting Col. John N. Staples, of Greensboro, in the city today. Congressman Crawford.of the ninth district, is in the city. Senator Cqlbretb. of Cumberland, is in the city, stopping at the rest dence of Mr W. B. Hutchings. Prof. Weatberlv, formerly of the Agricultural and Mechanical College, but now of Chattanooga, Tenn , is in the city. Gen. Bradley T. Johnson and wife are stopping at the Yarboro. A Wood Market. Passing along East Hargett street between Wilmington and Blount to day, we noticed at least fifty cart loadp of wood awaiting purchasers The idea was suggested to us, and we think it a good one, for the city to establish what might be termed a wood market on some lot in the city. The present system is not a good one In fact it may be termed a serious draw back to travel on the street, es pecially as the street car lines are to be extended in that direction. At times, the street is so blocked up with wood carts as to impede the passage of every other kind of vehicle. If a designated place was arranged for the purpose, our people would soon get used to it, and it would work better all around We hope our City Fathers will take the suggestion into con sideration. Its adoption would not only be the remedy of an evil, but will, we think, prove very popular. Cash tb Mishty Lever. Mediocrity is satisfied to plod along the old beaten paths, having a real dollar so seldom in their hands that their children don't know a silver dollar from a tiu box lid When they are paid off they ta e their money right to the credit ma tr and instead of workiag for your own home and little ones you are paying some high price meroh ant all your living for a little accommodation You never think you pay more on credit than if you paid ?ash. Now for the love of all that is dear to you break off this accursed habit of running accounts. Try for one month to pay as you go. Spend your money at Swindell's and see wbat a grand different it will make in your affairs Swindell wants the cash trade and he sells very cheap for cash. Yours truly, D. T. SwiiSDBLL.
