Destructive Fire in DanviIle-The Dan
Vile Semi Weekly Times, gives an account of a
destructive fire in Danyille, on Monday night of
last week, by which large woollen factory sew
eral stores, shops, and large amount of other
property was consumed. The loss, exclusive of
stealage, is estimated by the Times at from $50,
600 to 500, 900. A colored man, named Ned Hol-
land, was caught in one of the burning houses,
and persisted in the flames.
We gather an instructive hint from the account
of this fire. the Times says, speaking of the eff
Gent aid of one of the fire companies in stopping
the ravages of the flames, 'tthe fire engine has al
ready paid for itself hundred fold, and the In

Easter.-Sunday, LIST inst, was the day OBJ
served in commemoration of the resurrection of
Christ, by the Greek, the Roman Catholic, the
Lutheran and English Churches, and by the Eu-
ropean Calvinists. By the former, it is the most
joyful of all the sacred festivals. Prior to the
Council of Nice in the year 325, disputes arose
to the proper day to be observed for this festivals
the Greek and Roman Churches observing differ
ent days. so that while one set of Christians were
mourning in commemoration of the passion,
others were rejoicing in the resurrection of the
Savior. In the second century the dispute arose
to such degree that much bloodshcd resulted;
the Eastern Church would not discontinue the
celebration of the feast at the time with the
Jews, (who observed it as the feast of the Pass
over.) while the Western Church insisted upon
celebrating it without the Paschal lamb, and be-
ginning it on Sunday the day of Christs resur-
rection The Council of Nice finally settled that
it should be observed the Sunday following
the first full moon after the vernal equinox,
which, this year, happened on the first day of
April
The Monday after Easter Sunday, has been OBJ
served in many portions of this country, time out
of mind, as a holiday, without any particular re-
ference to religious matters, and observed,
Yesterday many fishing rods and fowling pieces,
in the hands of boys and free colored American
citizens making for the adjacent woods and mill
ponds, in order to keep up the old custom of
fishing and hunting, which seem to be looked
upon as the appropriate manner of observing the
day.
We did not see any ''easter eggs'' in circula-
ton, yesterday; these gotten up for the
OCCASION mostly among the Luthcrans. In Ca
barrus and other counties in the Western part of
this State where this respectable clever class
of Christians have settled, we suppose that not
less than one hundred bushels of speckled eggs
have been eaten since Saturday morning.

Connection Completed.-The trains passed
over the Railroad Bridge, at Weldon, we learn,
on yesterday, for the first time since the bridge
at that point was burned last Spring. This COM
pletes the connection, by railroad, between Ra-
leigh and Petersburg and between Raleigh and
Norfolk, a convenience that will be appreciated
by travellers and traders.
We learn from the Charlotte Times, that the
bridge over the Catawba river between Charlotte
and Columbia, will be finished by the 10th OF
May, by which time laying of the tract near Co
lumbia will be completed, thus filing the gaps
in the line to Charleston.
p S-After the above was written and in typ: :,
yesterday, we received dispatch from Mr..
O'Brien, the Gentlemanly Superintendent of the
Telegraph Company, stating that the trains pass
ed over the bridge at Weldon, as stated, yester-
day morning.

Superior Court.-The Spring Term of the
Superior Court of Law and Equity, for Wake
county, Judge D. G. Fowle presiding, commenced
at the Court House in this city, yesterday.
The charge of His Honor to the Grand Jury,
which embraced the usual points, was able, clear
and earnest. We have not listened to an ADLER or
more perspicuous charge to Grand Jury for
many years. He particularly dwelt upon the
crimes of larceny and robbery, which, since the
close ofthe war, have become so common through
out the country. He alluded to the changed
status of the negro race and stated that they were
by an understanding between the officers of the
Freedman's Bereau, turned over to the civil
Courts for the trial of such offenses against the
laws, as they may be charged with, while the law
makes no discrimination in the award of penal
ties between them and the whites; and that should
any controversy arise, it would be between the
Bureau and the Court, and not with the Grand
Jury. 1t is, therefore, their duty to make pre-
sentiment of all cases of breach of law, whether
by whites or blacks.
There appeared to be a goodly number of pre-
sentiments preparing to go before the Grand Jury,
and we have doubt, there will be pretty full
docket.
