MIR. EDITOR = perform a very unpleasant
duty in reporting to you the burning of the
stables, together with four fine mules and a
horse, fodder, &C., the property of Squire G.
Q. Moses OF New Hope township, in this
County last night. The fire, Squire Moses
tells me, occurred about 10 O'Clock, he had
been scarcely half an hour in bed All the
colored men in his neighborhood assembled
promptly on the alarm and labored faith
fully, but the intensity of the heat was so
great, and the fire had got SO far ahead,
that every effort proved unavailing.
1t is neither prudent nor expedient to give
publicity to convictions or surmisings
Squire Moses, may however state, tells me
that the burning was done by one of his
own political party. / mention this to pre-
vent your neighbor-in-law from falling into
mistakes.
Squire Moses is one of our most molten
sive citizens, and it is a matter OF deep re
gret that our hitherto unimpeachable county
should be ushered before the public, bearing
the stigma of such foul crime; but We
hope that every good citizen will exert him.
self to ferret out the malignant demon, and
lodge him for the balance of his days in his
proper place.
1t might aid in bringing the perpetrators
of these foul outragcs to justice, ii the citi-
zens who are able would offer reward, say
of 81 ,000,-.ach person offering certain
amount, in proportion with which the con-
tribution would be raised. For this pur-
pose your correspondent will offer $40. Let
the work go on.
The loss in the above is estimated at
$1,000.

CENTENNIAL CELEBRATIaN.--We have
heard it suggested that the Grand Lodge of
Masons of North Carolina will have cen
tennial anniversary in this city in January
next. This grand Lodgs is one of the old
est in the United States, having been char
tered by the Grand Lodge of England, Janu-
airy II, III. The records were all destroyed
at Edenton during the revolutionary war by
the British forces, but the charter escaped
the ruthless hand of war and now graces
the SOUTHEAST corner of the Grand Lodge
Hall it, this City.
We are glad to learn that Centennial
celebration is to be held. We hope Col.
John Ii. Wheeler, who is II Past Grand
Master, or some other suitable speaker, will
be selected to deliver an address ON the his
tory of the order in this State. The roll of
this grand body is embellisllcd with bright
galaxy of immortal names "that were not
born to die and their history affor,ls am

public that the outsiders may hear it.

KEEP QUIET.-We once for all say to
those young gentlemen who arc abusing US
for our remarks on certain subjects, to keep
quiet; keep cnol and collected; do not let
your passions run away with your discretion.
What we have said we mean, and we have
moral courage Ia stand to, knowing that we
have all the citizens whose opinions we
care cent for, to say. $50 on in the good
work"
Now, boys, don't get mad. Neither your
threats or your curses intimidatc us the
least. We know we are ON the right side,
for VIC advocate the side OF virtue-you of
vice. Ask yourselves which is the stronger
of the two. Don't tempt us. we are weak in
some things, but not in this, and may call
rames sometimes when it would be disa-
agreeable We owe you no :,rudge-we
Owe the other party none, but we are deter
mined that our wives and sisters shall walk
the streets of this our native city, which we
all love 50 much, without being pushed
from the sidewalk, and compelled to hide
their faces in shame at what VIC daily see ON
our streets We call on all lovers of virtue
on all who have mothers, wives or sisters
who they respect and love, to join with us
in frowning down this growing evil.
Young gentlemen, if you throw dowr
the guage we will take it up, for we fea
you not, nor care for your approval, and 70
fear you might get the worst Of it, we Ga

Hon. C. L. Cobb was elected on the first bal
lot as our nominee for Congress, and received
sixteen votes, Col. E. W. Jones having a
vote and fraction. The nomination was
then made unanimous. You will see the
particulars of the proceedings OF this Con-
vcntion, and then you can be informed OF
the perfect unanimlty of the Republicans OF
this district The best feeling prevails on
all sides, and we enter upon this campaign
under most suspicious circumstances. VIC

There cannot be too much praise awarded

the entire confidence and respect of tine COM

untiring efforts to instill into the minds of
their pupils those greatest of blessings, edu-

and the principles of true religion. Il is to
be regretted that there are not more Pen

DISCHARGE OF LIVING FISH FROM Vol
CANoEs.-Iti is u curious fact that feature Of
volcanic discharge in South America often
consists in the election of immense numbers OF
fish, usually Of one species, thrown out some
times in such quantities as to poison the air
and spread disease by their exhalations. The
fish in question belongs to the same natural
order as the fresh water cat fish, with winch
every one in the United States is well ac-
quainted. 1t has been taken alive In some
of the lakes at the sides of the Andes. at
an elevation of eight or ten thousand 1eet
above the sea and it is.shpposed that these
lakes communicate VIII reservoirs in, the
interior, from which the fish arc. elected by
the volcano. Specimens were obtained by
Prot. Ortan, on his late expedition to Ecua
dor, and have been indcntifed as the
Cyetopism humboldtii OF nalurtistss 1t is
very remarkable, however, that these fish,
although sometimes thrown out in 4 half
boiled state, are generally uncooked, and
some of them indeed are alive when they
reach the surface of the earth.
