New BRIDoE.-A large end substantial
new bridge has just been built over the
deep gully near the residence of Capt
Miller, on the road leading to the "big
bridge" across the Bogue Falia- This
was much needed improvement, as the
old structure was in dangerous condi-
ton. The bridge is forty-five feet in
length, and extends some distance be-
yord the banks of the gully ON either
aide. Much credit is due to the Town
Couscil for the promptness in which
they attended to the matter.

TIE HOOP ORPHANS were shown
yesterday, by Mr.. Goldsby, the artist, q
large and handsome photograph of the
Hood orphans, taken by Lilienthal. of
New Orleans. The children are taste
fully arranged in groups in the center of
large room. On the right is vacant
Chair. denoting the death of one of their
number. On the left is an excellent pic
ture of Gen. Hood. while hanging on the
wall in the background is picture of
the mother. 1t is a perfect work of art,
and would be an ornament to any par
Tor, aside from the interest which is felt
by the public in these young orphan
children of the illustrious Gen. Hood.
The picture can be seen, for the next
two weeks, at Mr.. Goldsby's gallery, in
the Courthouse, and those who have
never seen it should do 80 at once.

except 10 ssseEs ihe fact that such redis-

the council from 10 to II. there is nothing
10 the Unions article to prove wherein
the proposed change would be beneficial
TO the city. Presenting on the correct
compilation of the directory of 1873, the
Union insists that our population is
large enough for the purpose. and
that it is absolutely necessary to redistrict
the city,-in other words the Union tries
to convey the impression that the council
is obliged to do SO. The council ia not
obliged to do any such thing and, further,
there is absolutely nothing to be gained by
any such action. The city election which
occurs in April will necessitate the cleo
ton of ten aldermen, but it does not neces-
state the election of fourteen. The only
apparent object of the Union is to force
onpliance with ats opinions, but as has
has been the result heretofore, it is fair to
presume the council will not be driven
from its presen: position merely to satisfy
the Uaaon. The course of the alderman
meets the approval of large majority of
our citizens, and especially in the matter
of appointing the city officers not mandator-
lily elective. The Union waves wrothy on
this point and wants the people to refuse
