At seven p. m. the first, and at
midnight, the sccoud train left
Charlotte on tho G. G.. IL A. R. r.
The News came down on tho latter
which was jammed. Many amusiug
episodes caused by TOO liberal pota-
tions of Centennial corn occurred,
bus, as q general thing, the entire
concourse, numbering twenty-five
thousand at least, were remarkably
sober and orderly. The main party
from Winnsboro reached home by
sunrise on Friday, fa;igued and dusty,
but in fiue spirits, but many stayed
over to tho Centennial ball given that
night.
This ends what We know about the
Centeurial. We heard of but two
accidents. On Thursday morning
while firing salute of one hundred
guns, member of the Raleigh Artil-
lery had all arm shot off, and a simi-

We do not propose to speak for
every one. Fur ourselves VIC pro-
nounce the Centennial great success,

are, therefore, ready for the next
Centennial, or for any other fcstivi.

conclusion We return thanks to the
heroes of l775 who made the decla-
ration, and our hosts of 1875 who
celebrated it, and furnished us
with SO much pleasure.
