Charlotte Observer w. II. Bailey,
Esq, is making excellent progress with
his new law book, the fifth digest Of
the laws Of North Carolina. He hopes
to have it ready for the press in the
course of a very few weeks. -. Rev
T. P. Johnston, who was for nearly
twenty years prior to the war mis-
sionary of the Presbyterian Church
among the "unapeakaDie Turks" is
having printed in the Observer job
Office pamphlet Of thirty-two pages,
narrating 1.-The Experience of Mis-,
sionary Family IL Turkey. 1t is
stated, on good authority, that there
are three engineers on the North Caro-
lima Railroad worth over $25, 900 each.
A machinist in the shops of the com-
pany is also equally wealthy. 1t is
impoIt tant to know beforehand that
the act of the last Legislature prohib-
iting the carrying Of concealed weap-
Ons goes into effect the 1st of July.
The act makes it misdemeanOr, pun-
ishable by fine and imprisonment at
the discretion of the court, to carry
about the person pistol, bowie knife,
dirk, dagger, slungzshot, loaded cane,
brass, iron or metal knuckles, or other
deadly weapons of like kind. The
prohibited weapon being found on the
person off his own premises, is to be
taken as prima facie evidence of vio-
latiOn.

FROM WAKE FOREST, June 10Sh.-
have been spending the day with
numerous friends and acquaintances
Ia the handsome grounds Of this we'll
known Institution. At the meeting of
Trustees to- day there were % trustees
in attendance, the largest number
since the war. Rev. DR.. II. Mcdonald,
of Richmond, was elected President
of the College. The College would
seem to be IN very prosperous condi-
ton as there were 10 students last
year, and the graduating class will
number 12-mOre than the Univer sitv.
DR.. Broaddus of Louisville will preach
tonight, and tomorrow Gen. NJ. w.
Ransom is expected to deliver an adj
dress. This week is to be laid the cor
ner stone Of another large building to
be the same size Of the one just cOm>
pleted, and the contractors expect to
have 1t competed by another COM
mencement. Then the college will
have three very large and imposing
structures, which will furnish room
for several hundred students. With
DR.. Mcdonald and his assistants. che
present faculty, the college can but
succeed. The location is beautiful and
healthy. and the grounds with some
additional shrubery, &C., would be as
pretty as any in the State. Thursday
will be the big day, and a very large
crowd is expected. The Salem band
will 5iapensc sweet music for the occa-
sion.

-" Perfectly splendid Us what
the young folks report about Chapel
Hill Commencement. Good thing that
it comes but once year, for with
many Of the young bellies and beauN it
was one continuous season of frolic,
and fir alton. without sleep, rest, or
scarcely food, d,-day and night.
One of the new inventions in mod
ern military science is the heliOgraph,
for signaling long distances. 1t may
be described as a mirror, on pivots
arranged to throw gleam Of light to
given focus, s,-say fifty miles across
the country. The Hastings of the
light, at a variety of angles, cores
ponds to an alphabet, and by its means
kilograms are sent at the rate OF sew
erai words a minute. When Colonel
Pearson was leaguered at Ekowe, the
English relieving army held communi-
cation with him directly over the
heads Of the hOrieS of Zulus, swarm
ing in the surrounding country. Had
Gen. Joe Johnston, at the Big Black,
been able to telegraph to Gen. Pember-
ton, in Vicksburg, to hold out a few
days longer, the story of the war
might have been changed.
We are in receipt of the Catalogue
of the Bingham School for 1878. 1t
is no injustice to any other School to
say that the showing (142 pupils from
IA States of the Union, and one from
Asia,) is better than any similar
School in the South makes. We notice
that the most liberal off 1rs are made
to the sons of clergymen and others,
and that young men with small means
can ''mess,' and thus get a first class
education with very little money. We
notice also that board. with furnished
room, is reduced to $l2 per month, and
that tuition ($75 90 before the war aud
$62 80 till now will be $50. 90 hereaf-
ter; and the superintendent claims
that, with his able, thorough y-trained
and experienced corps of teachers and
increased facilities, more satisfactory
results will be secured and for less
money than at any time since his con-
nection with the School. begun twenty
wo years ago.
The longsoOntlnued, often renew
ed struggle between the ms and the
outs, has begun in connection " ith
the management Of the New bern Rail-
road. The two parties are kuown as
the "Hughes men,, and the .Whitford
men''-being virtually headed by Maj.
John Hughes, present President, and
Col. John d. Whitford, formerly
President. Maj. Hughes was appoint
ed by Gov. Vance, (the Governor APP
pointing the State proxy, who carries
the election In his pockct), but rumor
says Gov. Jarvis inclines towards the
WhitfOrd men. We do not know if
rumor have any foundation for his tale
on the subject. Ten years ego this
writer made himself very unpopular,
temporarily, by advocating the con~
solida ion of the Newbern Road with
the n. G. r. r., a thing that was then
possible. The contest aroused great
bitterness ao the time. But Old Time
now tells of Lost Opportunity, aud
perhaps he last one, for inaugurating
a real North Carolina Railroad.
