give one of their concerts ut Lawson's

praises Of the press that have reached

signifying her appreciation Of the en-
deavors of Mr.. Peak, the inventor of
bell music in America, by presenting
him with a full set of solid silver bells.
The press of Raleigh and of Charlotte

gave concerts, give them much praise
for the entertainments at those places.
Readers are referred to the ADVERTISE
ment in enother column for sketch of
the performance, and particulars as to

Honor, Judge Orr, called attention in his
recent charge to the Grand Jury, to the
stringent provisions of the law on the
subject of retailing, With regard to a
Tavern license-that the applicant be
recommended by six respectable free
holders, and enter into recognizapce OF
$1,000, with two good sureties; have two

a Young Clergyman.

Editor Press and Banner:
I had the pleasure of hearing a ser
mon Last Sabbath evening from Rev
Robt. Pratt, a son of an old friend Of
mine, Robert Pratt, Esq, of Due West.
The sermon was short, impressive, and
to the point. AS an evidence Of good
sense and sound judgment, Mr.. Pratt
quit when he got through, and did not
attempt to exhibit his learning, by set
ting forth any of the doctrinal peculi'
arities of his church, which is the great
fault of some young preachers. He is a
Baptist, q student or graduate ef the
Theological seminary at Greenviile, and
we trust he has brilliant career before
him. May God bless him in his labors.
