At Mobile to date there have been 54 cases and 22 deaths. A telegram say 8: jJ "The disease has been spreading very slowly, and our physicians still hope that it will not become epidemic.

I We saw a letter yesterday, received by Mr. J. H. Allen, of this city, from Mr. Jno.

C. Bauman, which, after alluding to the condition of affairs in the plague-stricken city, says: "McCollum is well. I saw him yesterday at the Howard headquarters; he was nursing out of the city, Poppe has proved himself a good nurse, and a steady and has gained the good opinion of the several physicians under whom he has been nursing. He left this morning for McKeczie's, a station, on the Memphis Ohio Railroad." This is the first positive information, re ceived in reference to Mr. McCollum since the receipt of a telegram from Memphis, some weeks since, announcing his death, the correctness of the report being doubted by some at the time.

Another The death of little Isaac, B. Grainger, coming so soon after the death of the la mented, father, is peculiarly sad and touch ing. While still suffering the agoily inci dent to the loss of a fond and devoted bus band, the widowed mother is called on to give up another of her household trea sures, a sweet little boy named after the father, and for tbis reason doubly dear to her and to all her friends. Mrs. Grainger has the warm and cordial sympathy of an entire community in her terrible afflictions.

a-a LastNlcht'a Fire. The tire last nigh about half-past 9 o'clock, was on Princess, between Fourth and Fifth streets, in a small one story building, occupied by James Taylor as a shoe shop. It, was quickly extinguished, though the building was stripped of wea- tbetboarding and the roof torn off in the undertaking. Taylor succeeded in saving-nearly, all of his tools and fixtures, though ia a damaged condition Encouraging from tbe Fever DU Our readers will be glad to learn that, there was a heavy black frost at Memphis Friday night and that ice about the sixteenth of an inch thick formed in the pools beyond tbe city limits yesterday morning. There has also been more or less frost at several other points where fever has prevailed, and we may now reasonably antici pate a rapid abatement of the disease at ai these points.

Tbe Trip to tbe Fenltenttary The officers who took the convicts from this city to the Penitentiary last week say they saw nearly all of the New, Hanover delegation, and that they all appeared to be in good health except M.

for the murder of Daniel Faulk, of Robeson county, in 1877, was acquitted, as we learn from the Ltimberton Timet. Two convicts at work on Western N. C. Railroad escaped. One has been captured.

He was found on the trucks of baggafte car, as we learn from the Charlotte Observer. Delegates and others who an ticipate attending the State Baptist Assoc. ation at Charlotte, commencing November 6th, will please notify by postal card at once Brother R. p. Graham, Chief Clerk.

A team ran away at Charlotte and collided with a buggy. Mr. James Held an old gentleman, was thrown out and rendered insensible. He has recovered, but is badly bruised, as we learn from the Observer; Raleigh Observer: Gov. Vance has rorori art nf T.

He brought it home with him.donatcd it to the Baptist Church to be raffled, and it brought $5. Mr. Marshall Mott won it. This from tbe Landmark. The "Spartansburg Asheyille Railroad has failed to make arrangements with its creditors.

The Charlotte Observer says; In consequence of this failure to effect an arrangement whereby the work conld be carried on, Mr. McAden, who has for some time past been furnishing out of his individual funds the money used in the work of construction, yesterday ordered operations to be stopped, and the building of the Spartanburg Asheville Railroad is therefore now at a complete standstill Oxford Jiree JLancei Rev. J. T. Gibbs, assisted by Rev.

Mr. Thompson, of the Granville Circuit, is conducting quite an interesting revival, at Shady Grove. Great interest is manifested, and tbe meeting promises to be one of great benefit. For some time past Mr. R.1 W.

Lassi-tef, of this place, has been in correspondence with certain influential parties in the East, having in view the introduction of marl in Granville and other counties of this section. We learn, however, that owing to the fact that the railroads have thus far refused to arrange a satisfactory freight tariff, the project has been abandoned foe the present. Salisbury Watchman The religious revival which has been going on here for the last month still continues in both the Methodist and Presbyterian churches. There have been 33 members added to the Methodist, and 13 on examination to the Presbyterian church. Mr.

Luke Blackmer, of this place, has a yet young fruiL The older bearing banana plant, and several others stem is four years; old, and fourteen feet high. The stalk at the foot is about five inches in diameter. We believe these plants bear only one spike of fruit and then die. It is a hot bouse plant in this latitude, and has just been, moved in its winter quarters, having been out in the open air all tbe summer. Raleigh News: We learn that Whilst the Edgecombe Guards were waiting for the train at the North Carolina de pot last evening, two of the company bad a difficulty which soon came to blows.

One of the participants ran' his bayonet through the cheek of tbe other, making an ugly wound. They were soon separated and the company left directly after.

Fayetteville Gazette: Manches ter, in this county, sent through Mr. Geo. H. Haigh $50 to the yellow fever sufferers. This is a generous gift for a small neighbor hood like Manchester.

The Cumber- land fair stands, par excellence, the best county iair in JNortb uarglina, and we are confident tht it will anatnin ita AnviahlA reputation this fall. There wjs a very light frost last Sunday morning hardly perceptible but an undeniable one on Monday, 14th, whitening barn and stable roofs, but not making much showing on the ground. Tbe cotton business of Fayetteville has shown unusual activity and vigor this season.
