The people of this city ought to at tend in large numbers the concert which the Oxford orphans will give at Metropolitan hall next Tuesday even ing. There is no charge for admis sion. The delay of the S. A. L.- train this morning was caused by tne breaking down of the locomotive near Monroe. A new engine was obtained and the train came on and arrived at one o'clock. No one was injured. The experts who have in charge the matter of deciding the dispute as to the market house will next Saturday take evidence, and will be able in all probability to render a decision early next week. The market house squabble is draw ing to its end. A gentleman, who should know, said today that the proposed alterations, if the experts decive in the city's favor, will cost at least 600. Mr. Will. Cooper, who is interested in the appearance here on December 4th of the Swedish quartette, has suc ceeded in selling 105 reserved seats already. The "company is an excel lent one and Mr. Cooper richly de serves the success he is sure to have. Messrs. Jhn W. Thompson, W. S. Primrose, John Nichols and B. R.

Georgia has 67 mills, with 536.769 spindles, 12,134 looms and 1,885 cards. North Caro lina therefore leads in the number of mills, spindles and cards. . There is a good deal of curiosity as to who will get the clerkships under tti a nw countv officers: whether the lnekv ones will be republicans or popu lists, or some of each. The populists will probably get their share. The cfinntv officers are all republicans, and this has led some persons to say that only republicans will get clerksnips. The market house investigation looks to the casual observer, who has seen the experts "on the bench" In the mayor'a office, more like a murder trial than a matter to be aeciaea py arbitration. The experts were occu- .! from 10 till 12 - today listen Ing to glorious bursts of legal oratory, first from Mr. Holding, city attorney, Jand Mr. T. M. Argo, counsel lor eon tractor Biiina.

Blair, a well- known educator, died suddenly yester day at Raffia, Rockingham county, where he was teaching school. Editor J. W. Goslen, of the Winston Republican, is soliciting subscriptions of stock to a republican daily news paper to be established at Winston or Greensboro. George Mills, the condemned mur dorer, seem more cheerful than he has at any time since his confinement. He is very confident of obtaining a new trial from the supreme court. Sixty years ago coal was not used here but it was found during the dig ging of a well near this city and a man is now living who heard the well digger declare he had found coal at the bot tom of the well. A Raleigh citizen contends that a search would din. lone the fact that there is coal here. Concord presbytery met at States. ville yesterday to pass upon the li censure of Mr. R. V. Miller, of Salis bury. He was found to hold such views that the presbytery declined to license him or receive him under its care the Charlotte Observer says. The S. A. L. train, which should have arrived at 11:3a this morn ing, came in considerably after o'clock this afternoon. It was said st the depot that the train had been "held up" near Monroe and robbed of a a choice line of chestnuts, chickens and "Chatham pork," (rabbits.) Of course this was a joke. Rev. J. A. Cuninggim. D. D. At the fourth and last quarterly conference of Brooklyn city mission, held at Brooklyn church last evening, the following resolutions were adopt ed by the official members of that con ference: Whe.'eas, According to the law of our church the Rev. J. A. Cuninggim D. D., our beloved presiding elder must go to another field of labor nex year and this charge will, therefore not enjoy any more the privilege of listening to his wise counsel and godly teaching; therefore, Resolved, That we, the members of this quarterly conference, for our selves and the church that we repre sent, hereby tender to Dr. Cuninggim our heartfelt thanks for the hearty services that he has rendered us dur ing the four years in which he has ministered unto us as our presiding elder; and that we do assure him that into whatsoever field of labor the Mas ter may call him he shall have our prayers to the end that he may be long spared to work for the Master whom he so dearly loves and whom he so lovingly preaches to others. At the close of the business of the conference; the official members ex pressed in warm terms their appreci ation of the services of their pastor, Rev. R. H. Whitaker, and asked the presiding elder to use his influence to have him returned to that work for the next year. A Lucky Dog. Ben. Plummer. colored, is a lucky dog. Yesterday afternoon while Amanda Dunston, the well known pro prietress of Manda's restaurant, was attending a funeral some one entered her restaurant and took several chick ens, some hams and other sundry ar ticles. Suspicion fell on Ben and he was arrested. This morning he was tried befor the mayor but the evidence was not strong enoug to convict him. He is still confined, however, as there are two more larceny cases laid at his door. He is a notorious thief, having just returned from the roads. It seems that he wille scape punishment entirely. He Accldently Killed His Boom mate Not long ago a son of Mr. Deb, Johnson left his home at Auburn, this connty, and went to Texas to live. A letter from him states that through an unfortunate mistake he shot and kill ed his roojimate. One night the lat ter came home late and was heard trying to open an outside door. Mr. Johnson asked who It was at the door. He trot no answer, and then went to the door. He heard the man trying to enter a window and fired at him, killing him instantly. The killing has caused Mr. Johnson great sorrow. He was not arrested.

The Conditions and the Fore cast. Forecast for Noith Carolina: Fair, Warmer in the interior tonight. Local forecast for Raleigh and vicinity: Thursday, fair, slightly warmer. Local data for 24 hours ending 8 a. m. today: Maximum temperature 58; minimum temperature 42; rainfall, 0.00. . The center of high barometer . this morning is over the middle Atlantic states. The highest is reported from Hatteras. Many stations within this area of high pressure reported dense fogs this morning, but no rain. The fog will clear up and the sky probably become clear during the day. An area oi low barometer is central over Missouri, but is causing as yet no great disturbance in the west, and nuie rain is-reported irom it. it is accompanied by rising temperature. The temperature is generally a little above normal. An Interesting Decision. The supreme court decides adversely to Robert 0. Burton, Esq., who sought by mandamus to compel the state auditor and treasurer to pay him the alleged balance of a fee as counsel for ! the state in the tax suits against the Wilmington & Weldon railroad. He had received part of the fee. The case goes against him on the ground that under the peculiar circumstances writ of mandamus does not he against the auditor to compel him to issue a warrant, as there is no specific fund set apart for this purpose and because the auditor has already exer cised his powers in the matter. The Methodist Conference. Tne jNortn uaronna Metnodist con ference meets Dec 5th at Durham. The only Methodist who has served his four years in this district and must therefore, according to custom, be re moved, is Rev. Dr. J. A. Cuninggim.

Of these antique musical inatruments, which are 2 000 to 3,000 years old, the oncient northern mu seum in Copenhagen possesses a col lection of 18 pieces. Some of these horns are in such condition that they may yet be judged as to quality, toue, etc. According to doctor Hamnierich some of these are tuned to C. some smaller ones ones in E. and others in D. E. or G. They show in their elegant curves and embellish ments a highly-developed taste and technical perfection. Murderers at Large. Nothing has been seen or heard of Charles Walton, or "Shacklefoot Charles." Many say he will only stay in hiding nntil the reward gets a little cold; others that he has skipped for good.
