One of the individuals who created the disturbance at the Presbyterian church on the night of Washington's birthday, went before Justice Baxter and pleaded guilty to a charge of d:s-tn d:s-tn biug a lawful assembly. This being his firstoffense he was let off with a fine of $35. Old man Jackson, the other offender, was to have had his trial on Saturday. When he saw how his friend was treated he began to doubt the propriety of being brought before the court to answer to his misdeed, and being out on his own recogniz ance, he concluded to seek a more congenial clime. So on Satnrday when his case was called, the court was informed, that the defendant had boarded tho train for the south the evening before. The officers are in hopes he will remain away, for, should be come back, it will only add to the expeses of the city the amount of his board for a month or two. One thing we are pleased to note is the improvement that is being made in the appearance of our streets. M any of the old time fences are being torn down and substantial modern fences are taking tak-ing their place. Ditches are being cleaned ont aud at their crossings neat bridges and culverts are being put in. There is oue thing more that, if accomplished, ac-complished, would result in everybody having better health; and that is the cleaniug out of all onr corrals. Let ns get the filth out of onr town, citizens, and we shall be well paid for our trouble. Should the weather continue favorable, favor-able, our.farmers will begin putting in their crops next week tariff or no tariff Mr. N. C.
