FIRES! INcENDARIEs.- No less than six
different fires occurred in Charlotte last week,
all believed to have been the work of incen-
dries. Thorough arrangements have been made
for guarding the city and expelling all doubt
ful characters A reward of $500 is offered
by the authorities of Charlotte for the de-
lection Of the miscreants.
The Barn of Mr. John Kendey of Davie
county, was set on fire recently by incendla-
ries. A large quantity of hay aud dother prov
ender was consumed The main object, it is
supposed, was to get possession of a conSid
arabic sum Of money thought to be in the
house Of Mr.. Barnhardt in the neighborhood
White the neighbo,s had repaired 10 the
burning barn, the robbers repaired to Mr.
B.s house, took out his bureau, supposed to
contain the money, and Tifedit ofwhat it con
tanned. Fortunately Mr.. Barnhardt wal
away from home that night, and had taker
his money away with him, except few dol
lars. A reard Of 500 is offered for the in
eendiarief.

INSANE AsYLuM.--We are requested by
DR.. Fisher, Superintendent Of the North Car
olina Insane Asylum, to state, that in conse-
quence of the increasing number, it has been
found necessary to discharge all foreign pa
tients in the male department, to make room
for our own unfortunate citizens. The health
Of the institution has been remarkably good
for the last six months Steps have beeh ia
ken for the erection of a brick wall on the
western side Of the buildings, as provided for
by the acts Of Assembly Of lS5S-59 go
and '6l.
II is due to the institution to state, that
very erroneous impression prevails in the
minds Of many respecting the annual charge
to the State Of tic Asy lum. For the more
certain means Of its support, an annual ap-
preparation is made by the Legislature of
twenty-five thousand dollars, but more than
two-thi ds Of that sum is paid back into
the State treasury by the respective counties
which are taxed for the support of their res
INDECENT insane sent to the Asylum, tho earn
ings TO the State from this source for the last
year being Sls,s00 leaving the sum of IS,
200 as that really contributed by the State
at large.
We have been requested to state, that on
account Of the crowded condition Of tho male
department, applications for that class of pa
tients must be made to the Superintendent
before bringing them to Raleigh.

last week Wake Superior Court was in
.oss;on b this City, which brought together
LARGO concourse Of the people of the County,
and wss made the occasion, by the Seces-
sionss" and the Union men," for rallying
theft respective forces in battle array again.
on Monday Southern Rights meeting was
hid in the Court House, which was numer-
o.sly attended. Speeches were made by
dessrs. w. r. Cox, d. NJ. Barringer, G. II.
Faribault, f. G. Haywood and w. A. Jenkins.
The Goldsboro' resolutions were adopted, and
one also approving the course Of the North
Carolina Senators in Congress, and the Rep
resentative from this District, and recon-
mending Mr. Branch for reelection. The
meeting was quite an enthusiastic one, and
every thing passed off satisfactorily to the
friends Of the meeting
On Tuesday night the Union men had a
large and enthusiastic meeting, which was
addressed by Henry W. Miller, Esq, and
Hon. Geo. f. Badger, elciting the earnest at
tention and loudly expressed appreciation oi
the literally jammed audience. Hon. Sion
Rogers offered the following resolutions, which
were unanimously adopted:
Resolred, That the true interests of oul
country demand Of all its patriotic citizens, IN
the perilous crisis now impending, to disre
gard all former pariy associations and to unite
wholly and cordially in the means best calcu
lated 10 preserve the Union and protect then
Constitutional rights.
Resoired, That we will support for Congress
any man who may be the choice of the Con-
stitutional Union party Of this District, with.
out regard to his former political connection
or opinions.
On Wednesday afternoon, the Flag of tn
Confederate States was raised on vacan
lot on Fayetteville street; and at night
meeting Of the "Southern Rights Club {
Wake County" was addressed by our tw
US. Senators Messrs. Bragg and Clingma
and our immediate Representative, L. OF
