invitation.

Friends, and enemies too,
if we have them, passing
through Philadelphia, are
invited to make a con-
venience of the Big Store.
1t is between the Broad
street station of the Penn
sylvania R. r. and every
where else, and is on the
way from almost every
station.
1t would be old news to
tell you what the store is
here for. Well skip that.
For our present purpose it
is here to be walked through,
looked at, get rested in, and
to hold your baggage while
you run about town. AS
you enter the door, any door
almost, you see a place to
leave your bag. Leave a
dozen parcels there, if you
like; no charge. Go all over
the store, upstairs and down;
ask for a guide, if you need
one; go alone, if you like
that better. After you have
walked a few miles and
climbed a pyramid or two,
it may be lunch-time. In the
basement is a place to get a
bite; and that's the only part
of the entertainment you pay
for. We'd like to have that
free, too, if we could. We
fear the wrong people would
come
In a sense we do not pay
much attention to visitors.
We do not invite them in SO
often as we would, if the
newspapers didn't make us
pay for every hospitable
word. When they come,
one or ten-thousand at a
time, we simply let them
alone, unless they ask for
help. We have our hands
full any way; besides, we
don't want people to think
that we ask them here to
draw them into buying things.
What we really do want
is that everybody every
where should have a pretty
accurate notion of what is
going on here; and that's
the whole of it.

Risks in Promising to Marry.

From the Pail Mall Gazette.
1t is an interesting question Of social
ethics how far the parties t o a matrimo-
NAL engagement ought to disclose any
skeletons they may chance to have in
their respective cupboards. As far as
the law, however, is concerned the
question seems TO be settled by the
beach Of promise case which, after oc-
eupying Baron Pollock and a special jury
for several DAYS, came to an end recent
~. There is no rule of law, the learned
judge told the jury, : to compel any alb
solute or entire disclosures before a
lady accepted % a lovers offer" and a
man who promises to marry lady with
out expressly making his promise con-
ditionai does SO at his own risk. in this
case the risk has been a very serious
matter, and the jury, acting appar-
emily on Baron Pollock's suggestion,
that ito a lady in a questionable posi-
ton the chance of a good marriage is
donbly precious" awarded the 'sexem-
plary" damages of 1880. The defend
ant lisa successful builder at Bourne
mouth, and, perhaps, can afford to buy
his experience dear, but he has hardly
shown much skill in erecting 1.-THE tenn
pie Of his love-" Barron Pollock was of
the opinion that mo time had been
wasted IN calculating a social matter of
nature" and the case will certainly have
been useful If ii puts elderly lovers on
their guard by reminding them OF the
sympathy which "a f~ine-looking WON
an" is sure ofobtaIning from a British
jury.

4 Big Find.

Many Of our citizens will doubtless re-
collec, the late James w. Johnston, q
resident of Castle Hayne, in Pender
County. He was quite aged and decrep.
it, and his general appearance indicated
that he was possessed Of but few of this
worlds goods. During visit to this
city, few months since, he died very
suddenly in the Scarborough House, on
North Water street. His family consis.
ted Of three daughters and son, one Of
the former being the widow of the late
Thomas Williams, of Pender County.
Since the death of the old gentleman q
number Of valuable bonds and securities
have been discovered among his effects
and which were sold at public auction q
few days since-the total sale amounting
TO about $4,000. And now comes evi.
dence of how well the old man took care
Of all the precious metals which came
into his possession. Under the belief
that he had some buried treasure, q
search was instituted day or two since,
which resulted in the discovery Of about
$22 900 i1 gold and silver, which he had
securely deposited in Jars and buried
under his house The discovery OF 80
much of the valuable metals was q most
agreeable surprise to the members of his
family, who will thus come into posses.
sion, in connection with the proceeds of
the bonds, of from $4,000 to $4,000
apiece. Our information is derived from
a very reliable source, and the main facts
of the "big find" can be relied upon ss

a New Thing for Locomotives.

The first of the new extension front
engines to be run on the Richmond and
DanviIe Railroad arrived yesterday af-
ternoon, pulling the train from Atlanta.
Just before the engine was run into the
round house, she stopped at siding.
The engineer pulled lever and about a
cart load of cinders dropped out from
the extension. This is q new wrinkle in
locomotives and is destined to be bless
ing to passengers, as by the adoption of
the extension, not a single park or cinder
can possibly escape from the smoke stack.
The smoke is literally sifted before it
leaves the engine, and the capacious in.
terror Of the extension catches and holds
the cinders. The engine is fred up at
Charlotte and during the entire run to
DaDville not spark or cinder escapes.
At Danville the engineer pulls the exten-
sion lever and steam blows the accumu-
lated cinders from the extension. Char.
lotte, Danville and Richmond are spark.
ing stations. The extension is perfect
success, and is to be put on all the pas.
senger engines on the road. 1t is simply
an extension of the boiler front that
makes it project over the pilot, and
rather adds to the appearance of the
locomotive. The railroad boys say that
1t is the biggest improvement yet made
on engines. Within three weeks all the
Richmond and Danville passenger en-
gines will be provided with the extension,
and passengers will henceforth have no
further annoyance from sparks and Gin
ders in their eyes.-Chdrlotte Observer.
