Towards the end of July the brigade returned to its old position South of Petersburg, after having Joined in the demonstrations near Furzle's Mill and Riddle's Shop. - . v About the middle of August the brigade wss again ordered to move Northward. On the 15th they found the Federal Cavalry at White's Tsvern, within six miles of Richmond. A strong party of them were near Fisher's farm, and General Bamnger was ordered to drive them off, which he did, running them across White Oak Swamp and back to their Infantry supports. ' Earlv next morning the enemy ad vanced with both infantry and cavalry. Tba Virginia Regiment, which had been posted to guard the swamp, was driven back in confusion. The enemy continued to advance three miles to White's Tavern. Here Gen. Lee, with the North Carolina Brigade, succeeded In checking them, and, after an obsti nate engagement; in which other troops particlpated,put them to routes. During these two dsys the North Carolina Brigade had lost about 125 killed and wounded. Among the former - were Captains Bryan and Cooper, of the Sec ond, and Lieut. Morrow, of the First. Lieut. Morrison, acting aide to General Barringer, was made prisoner. Finding thst the main body of the enemy's cavalry had re-crossed to the South side of the James, the brigade wss again marched back to Petersburg. The enemy were in possession of the Weldon Railroad. An attempt was made to dislodge them by Gen. Mahone, but it miscarried, witb. a loss to the North Carolina Cavalry Brigade of 68 in killed,wonnded and misslnr.of which folly one-half were from the Fifth Reg iment. - The next tffair of the brigade was at Reams' Station, on the 25th of August, where, with the co-operation of A. P. Hill and others, they drove in the enemy's line of infantry. The conduct of our ca airy In moving to the charge on this occasion drew forth a letter from Gen. R. . Lee to Gov. Vance highly complimentary to our cavalry. The brigade wss engaged In the fight at McDowell's farm on the 87th of Sep tember.where the Federals were driven back, and the gallant Captain Turner was killed. It participated in the fight at Peebles' farm, and was with Hamp ton in his famous and successful "Beef Raid." On their return they shared in the sharp encounter at Belckers mill. In October they fought the enemy with varying success at Bolssean'a, at Mrs. Cumming'a.Gravelly Run,Stoney Creek, Uargrave's, and at Wilson's farm, which was tbe principal action, and which re sulted in a signal victory for the Con federates, but with a loss to the brigade of seventy killed and wounded, i In Decern Der the brigade moved under Hampton in pursuit of General Warren, who. with a heavy force, waa advancing on Bellfield, and tearing up. the Weldon Railroad. Hampton over hauled Warren at Bellfield. and. sup ported by a small force of "Junior Re serves. from Virginia and North Caro lina, drove him backaviog tbe railroad bridge at that place. Gen. Barringer, wltb two squadrons of the First Regi ment, pursued, in person, their rear guard, and effectually routed them. ! Tbe losses of the brigade during the campaign of 1864 were 102 killed. 378 wounded, 124 missing total, 004. These casualties were distributed as follows: First Regiment, 133; Second405; Third, 153; Fifth. 208. ' The number of prisoners taken by the brigade was about 1,500. and tbe enemy'a loss In killed snd wounded by the brigade was more than 1.500. i The winter of 1804-65 was one of especial hardship to tbe North Carolina Brigade. The Virginia Cavalry was allowed to go home and recruit, that of South Carolina and Georgia had been sent home to oppose Sherman. The North Carolina Cavalry had to remain in an exhausted country, where forage was hardly to be bad at alLand the slim supply of this often cnt off by the enemy. The brigade wintered near Bellfield. Virginia, and was compelled to march over thirty miles to picket. It proved a terrible struggle for existence, alike on the part of men and animals. ; Looking to the Appropriations. St. Loins.

Mr. George H. HalL the beef men who keeps a slaughter bouse near the city,' was yesterday a witness to a Jew ish - slaughtering : ceremony. Rev. H. Berkman. of Wilkesbarre, Pa, who is in the city at present, was master of cersmonies, and slaughtered the beef with his own bands. " It is the custom of the Jews, in fact their law, never to eat beef unless it has been slaughtered after the regular fashion by the Rabbi, and in cities where the number and strength of the Jews is sufficient to permit of the observance of all their, laws, they bay no j beef except that which has been slaughtered by tbe Rabbi, and which bears the seals put on it by himself to show: that It has been duly slaughtered and found to be of the right kind. In Charlotte, where our Hebrew friends are strong and In good numbers, they trnve no Synagogue and no Rabbi, and hence it is impossible for them to live up to their laws in all things, yet whenever a Rabbi visits the city, they take advantage of every op portunity offered by his brief presence to live for tbe time being strictly in the pale of their faith and laws, and the presence of Rev. Mr. Berkman here this week, gives them a chance to eat meat after their own law. The ceremony at the slaughter pen is very simple and soon through with. Tbe Rabbi enters the pen, armed with a long, broad, keen edged knife, shaped like a bread knife, and cut square off at the end. The animal is hung up by its hind legs to allow' all the blood to ran to the head, after which the Rabbi, who must be skilled in the use of the knife and kaow bow to cat tbe throat in a certain manner, gives a quick stroke with his weapon and the work is done. The throat of tbe animal is cut square across but never deep enough for the blade of the knife to strike a bone. Different knives are used for different animals. For the bull a long, heavy knife Is used, but a lighter knife is used for cows, and still lighter knives for smaller animals. Tbe knife must have no sign of a gap in it, and the Rabbi, previous to cutting tbe animal's throat, draws the keen blade carefully over his thumb nail to see that there are no gaps in it. If the knife goes too far into the animals throat and receives a gap by coming in contact with a bone, the whole beef is condemned and is not sllowed to be eaten. After the animal is slaughtered, the Rabbi cuts it open to examine the "lights upon which a great deal depends If tbe lights have grown to the ribs, the beef Is declared unfit for use, but if not. asd the lights can be moved from the ribs without tearing, the beef Is pronounced all right, and (he Rabbi puts his seals on it, snd a portion of it is then allowed to be sold and estenJ The hind legs are never eaten under any circumstances Is this instance, the Rabbi bad none of the regular seals, but in their stead, be scraped the skin from one of the ribs, and wrote thereon an inscription in Hebrew. There is a great deal of good, sound sense tn this custom of bleeding an animal thoroughly in slaughtering it, snd in examining its condition caCb fully before allowing the meat to be used, as it prevents tbe possibility of unhealthy meat coming to the kitchen, and it is a castom that should be in vogue everywhere and with everybody. Rev. Mr. Berkman is a cousin to Mr. M. Bernstein, of our city, whose guest he is. He will remain with his friends here for severs! days. The reporter was introduced to the Rabbi yesterday, and found him to be an exceedingly pleasant man, well spoken, intellectual and entertaining. ' He is very popular with the Hebrews; in Charlotte, all of whom greatly enjoy his visit and will regret to see him go.

The South Carolina papers received yesterday confirm the rumors heard here in regard to a difficulty which oc curred In Greenville, last Thursday, be tween the father of a . ruined girl and her seducer, and the following particu lars we gather from the account given by tbe Charleston News and Courier: "A shoo ting scrape occurred in Green vilte last Thursday, the preceding and attendant circumstances of. which em brace a sad and sbsmef ul story. Rumor has filled tbe air for several days past of the seduction of a sixteen-year old daughter of Mr L W Kay, constable for Trial Justice Croft, by L Wash Floyd, a young merchant broker, formerly of Newberry, and of an impending hostile meet ing between tbe seducer and tbe father of the ruined girl. Conferences were bad, at which Floyd made a fist and positive denial of any and all of tbe racts alleged, and avowed the re port a slanderous falsehood originating with M B Harrison, a young man who had previously been paying attention to Miss Kay. Floyd and Harrison were brought face to face Thursday morn ing, when Harrison repeated and assert ed to be true what he had i previously stated, namely, that he had several nights ago seen Floyd take Miss Kay to his room, in the Mauldin builiing, where He remained closeted with her for some time. Floyd thereupon called Harrison s liar, and immediately pis tols were drawn. : Harrison was in the act of firing when his hsnd wss caught and a tragedy prevented. The seduc tion wss stoutly dented by Miss Ksy, and her irate father was quite at a loss to know wbom to call to account. The whole truth came to light last night, however, by a full and detailed confes sion from tbe girl to. her parents. Tbe story reveals the premeditated and fully planned and finally accom plished ruin of the unfortunate girl, who is the possessor of rare beauty and against whose fair name nothing has ever before been said. About two weeks ago. according tq Miss Kay's account, she was taken out for s bujrgy ride by Floyd. When they bad reached tbe top of Paris Mountain, five miles from town tbe buggy was left and she was induced to stroll amid the cool recesses and ravines of tbe mountain. Bottles of wine bad been provided by Floyd, and tbe victim of bis passion was induced to imbibe until she was, well under the influence of the wine. They returned to the city about 9 o'clock thai night. Since then the inveiglement of the girl into the room, as told by Harrison, is alleged to have occurred. About 11 o'clock to-day, as above stated, Mr Kay accompanied , by his brother-in-law, Mr H O King, repaired to Floyd's office, in the rear part of the store of Lipscomb, Russell & Co. on Main street, Kay made a formal de mand upon Floyd that be should at once marry his outraged daughter. Floyd made a positive refusal and the shooting began. Floyd in anticipation of what was coming bad a cocked pis tol in his hand in his coat pocket and fired as Kay was drawing his pistol from his hip pocket. The firing was in quick succession, Floyd firing" three times and Kay twice. Kay's second snot took effect in Floyd's right side and a third shot from Kay's pistol, which would doubtless have proven fatal, wss prevented by the seizure of Kay'a hand pistol by others present. Kay was not nit. -Floyd's second shot penetrated the right arm of Mr T W Davis, who was standing probably twenty feet off, causing a painful wound and a slight fracture. Thus the shooting occurred, tbe impression on all present being that Floyd was proba bly fatally wounded. He was taken to a room and afterwards on a litter to tbe Exchange Hotel, where his wound was treated by Dr T T Earle. The ball, which was from a 86-calibre Smith & Wesson revolver; penetrated the right side of the abdomen, being a slsnting shot, and came out about eight inches from the place it entered. Its range was probably not deep enough into the body to penetrate the peritoneum. Al though its course cannot be precisely ascertained no serious results are an ticipated. Mr Kay, believing he had killed his antagonist, soi rendered at once to Sheriff Gilreath. He was held but a short time, however, and was re leased as soon as it was known that Floyd's wound was not considered fa taL The affair created Intense excite ment, which has continued most of tbe day. Public sentiment and sympathy are entirely with Kay and his family. : Heating stoves at 50 per cent off of next fall prices. Also one first clsss five octave organ at a sacrifice.
