A petition has been very gen erally signed by the Bar of Tarboro asking Judge Moore to appoint Jos. B. Cheshire, Jr.; Esq., to fill the vacant position of Clerk of the Superior Court of Edgecombe. Mr. Cheshire would doubtless make a very efficient officer. P. H. Since the foregoing was put to type we hear it confidently affirmed that Judge Moore has tendered the position to Mr. Root.

Hassel delivered his illustrated lecture on Astronomy at Teel Hall in this place on last Wednesday night. Wre regret that we did not have before us the high enconiums passed on this scientific effort by the press of the State before our last issue, so that we could have given our readers a better idea of its character and merits. The lecture of Prof. Hassel! was gotten up in splendid Btyle, the language being that of a finished scholar, and the sub stance showing a familiar acquaintance with the masters of the science on which he spoke. A strong oxy-calcium stereop- ticon was used, by which the different por tions of the lecture were beautifully illus trated, showing the rotation of the earth, its seasons, its course in the ecliptic, the orbits of numerous heavenly bodies, the laws by which they are governed, their chemical composition, the character of stars, asteroids, nebulae, etc The lecture was certainly an able one, but, if the Professor will allow our criti cism, it contained too much to be digested and made useful in one evening's enter tainment, and would be more profitable if subdivided. The mind could sot thor oughly grasp one fact before another de manded his attention. We are glad to see Prof. Ha&sell has set the example of popu lar scientifiic lectures, and hope it will be the occasion of calling forth others in our State. Pender & Jenkins are now receiving a large stock of new styles of dress goods, dry goods, embroideries, laces, ruf&ings, corse ts, ladies' and childrens' Philadelphia shoes and gaiters.

That is, Old John Rob inson's Circus will certainly be in Tarboro on the 7th of November, provided some reduction is made on the county license tax. The matter will be considered by our Board, and it is thought the tax will be reduced, as it has been done in Wayne, Wake, Cumberland and Halifax. If the reduction is made, look out for a large ad vertisement with full particulars in our next. As is well known, we are not very Much of a circus man, but a large majority of our readers are, and, if they will have such amusements, we think they had better Lave the best. John Robinson's circus claims to be that, as follows : "The well known reputation of this company is sufficient guarantee of its mer it and magnitude. For a period of over fifty years Mr. Robinson has been directly connected with the Amusements of our country, in a managers! capacity, his word has never been broken, his promises have always been kept inviolate; it is to this consistent manner of acting that he owes the present proud position he now holds. His greatest aim during that entire period has been to have the best that money could procure; to this end he has lavishly ex pended a princely fortune to gather in one vast combination all that is rare, wondrous, beautiful and strange in the animal king dom. Energy, time, care and skill have alike been devoted to the object of pre senting to that public to whose liberality he owes his vast wealth, an exhibition that for magnificence, grandeur, excellence and merit far surpasses any organization in the world. His arenic performers are unex celled; his is the only traveling aquarim in the world, while in addition to his many cages of rare wild animals, are special feat ures, such as the Giraffe, the Eland, the Rhinoceros, monster Sea Lions, Giant Afri can Ostriches; in fact, every conceivable species of our great Creator s handiwork, of which 'There went in two and two into the Ark, The male and the female, as God had com manded Noah.' 1 No wonder it is that John Robinson is to-day a millionaire. The public ace al ways ready to patronize true merit, and his great success is due to the fact that he al ways promises to exhibit the best; and that his word has never been broken to the public. Rember the day the big show visits Tarboro is Saturday, the 7th of November. In addition to the many wanders to be witnessed within the vast pavilions is the grand street pageant, undoubtedly the largest and best ever presented to the pub lic. In the line oi procession are many living wild animals loose on the public streets. This trratuitona exhibition is of itself a great show. and. every one who really desires to see a fine display should embrace the opportunity afforded them." tUHMYhlEDE PARK ! SOOO in Purse ! . .

MOORE-CARNEY On Sunday, the 20th inst., at the residence of the bride, by Elder Thos. Oberry, Mr. Sam'l L. Moors and Miss Jans E. Cabnst. . OBITTJABT. MACNAIR. Died in Tarboro, N. C, at the residence of her son, Dr. A. 11. Mac nair, Mrs. Eliza Bakes Macnair, relict of of the late Edmund Macnair, in the 84th year of her aire. She was born 17th July, 1791 ; married 14th December, 1808, and died 29th August, 1874, at 45 minutes after 11 a. m. By the death of this estimable lady an other prominent landmark of this century has disappeared from our highway of life. The mother of a large family, whose chil dren's children she beheld to the third gen eration, and -long the cherished object of an extensive circle of relations and friends, she left an unusual number of affectionate hearts to mourn their loss, and feel the ab sence of her precepts and example, which had so long guided them in all their trials and vicissitudes of life. Bom to affluence and high social position, which she adorn ed with her virtues, her life was spent fn the walks of domestic privacy, dispensing the charities and hospitalities of her station, and in the conscientious discharge of her duties to her family a noble example of a Christian wife, mother and neighbor. She was the daughter of the late Augus- tua Harvey, of Beaufort county, . v., a I worthy sea of Idea Harwy, who -with bis relatives ; took. such an .active part in the I early movements of the revolution and in ( the actual War of independence, and -whose names are prominent in the early history of North Carolina in varioos departments civil and military. Other connexions of her family were not lea eminent and hon orable. One of her father's sisters married the late Reading Blount, tad another the late John uray Blount two, among many, brothers illustrious in public and private life. At Her father's death the late J. G. . . inw ..... , and indue time her mother married Mr. Jacob Blount, another brother, in all whose families the young ward became a loved 1808. She always cheriahed.thesemtmo- nes as tne dearest of her life, and kept Dngm mese goiuen nnxa oi ner youu UU severed bv death. I Her mother's maiden name was Susan Smith, born and reared, we believe, in the uciguuoruuuu ox rxienton. one was a iaay I of rare worth and beauty. She first mar- I ried a Mr. Granger: without children, she then married Mr. Harvey, the father of Mrs. Macnair, after bis death she married Mr. Jacob Blount, as stated above; after his death she remained a widow 'till her own death in 1818 in Edgecombe. We re member in our boyhood how we reverenced and loved ner as the ideal of grandmothers, convmcea n tnere ever was a saint on earth, she was one; for she was truly a Roman mother, with all the graces of a Christian one. Uf such a mother the sub ject of this notice was a worthy daughter. whose gifts or birth, and fortune were the least of her endowments. For years she used and enjoyed these gifts with meek ness and moderation; and with meekness and resignation she saw them melt away like tne mists of the morning. But her s were the gifts that could never perish. She was a hfe-Jocg member of the Episco pal Church. A profound sentiment of re ligion directed all her conduct, and guided the darkest clouds of her life with the light of Uoepel truth aud hope in the merits of a crucified Redeemer. For her death was a joyous entrance into those rnr"'iw pre pared by the Father, where the redeemed of tne Son shall live in joy forever. K. " Tired Nsturs's Swest Restorer.
