Kaiser Wilhelm's accession to the Prussian throne Was celebrated at his request very quietly last Sunday. MR, IIolman and Senator Dawes are both in favor of the movement for giving Indians lands in severalty. Four hours for dinner and thfen four for speeches is Boston's way of over doing social and intellectual pleasures. Senator Evarts was there.' ; " , The New; Year, reception at the White House for 1886 is aid to have beeii the handsomest and best ordered, as well as the largest, ever, known in Washington. t . f- : - T" . The volcano of 'Colima, in Mexico, was in aictive eruption last week. It is noticeable that volcanic activity is becoming common along the" Pacific coast of America. There assigns that the policy out lined recently as Gladstone's is not well received by bis, party,, and that he, will, be compelled on the assem bling of Parliament to modify it. "Boston tempted the Congressional t Yisitor by a bouquet to reveal his inner 1 1 ought on silver and other distracting issues, but the Congressional visitor had been there before, -and responded generously in ' glittering generalities. ' " There is hardly a day when we do not read of the dejtli or extreme- ill ness of a whole family from eatiug diseased pork. Sometimes it is eaten raw at otners wnen oniy sngniiy cooked. Pork should always be well done. ' - The nineteen-year old daughter of Congressman Wolfprd, of Kentucky, rode with her Indiana lover forty miles on an lopement frolic. They were successful under difficulties. But what Kentucky girl minds a ride of forty miles a day? What is called the tVest End Club has about broken up nighj loafing by men and boys on the streets in a part of Washington City. The enterprise charges a nominal membership fee, but is really sustained by benevolent gentlemen who provide large cosy rooms, billiards, chess boards, period icals, hot coffee, &c. I A dispatch from Berlin to theLon dbn Times gives the outlines of a gov ernment scheme whereby the State will buy at a fixed price all the raw jspirits produced in Germany, and, rafter refining it, will dispose of a por tion in foreign countries. The Gov jernment will have power to regulate the production and of granting or re . fusing licenses. IThe'diseussion of the 'project by the press shows a strong current of opposition to the scheme. . Abroad the general opinion un- 1riiVtfll7 is tVint lirctilitia a-rc rr nro ly tidedover for the winter. .. Russia and Austria are arming to the teeth at every possible point. Krupp hassup- iplied more guns in the last month than almost in' a year previously. Turkey is still massing troops on the Macedo nian frontier. The expense of -keeping her immense force.under arms all winter will be frightful. The attitude :of Greece, who shows no signs of an intention todisband her armies, creates the greatest uneasiness. It is stated that very large contracts for cartridges have been placed In the United States'. Altogether the New Year's bells wa kened anxious thoughts in the minds I of the leaders bf England and the Con tinent, . . - ' - The; annexation of Burmah. has come at last, and Great Britain on the whole takes it very calmly. The Tory papers strongly approve it, and the Liberal papers are mostly on the fencel The Times says :u The country will not hesitata4osa,ncition this decisive step." ; The .Standard ', Tory, says: ''If anything can be said by way of re proach, it isT;hat we have waited too long.' TheWaily News, Liberal, says : f'We have not at present seen any reason, to modify our opinion that it would have been better to secure the safety -and good treatment of the Brit ish subjects in Burmah without per manently adding to our enormous re sponsibilities in India." The Spectator, Liberal, says : "We cannot feel ex- ! nl taht, but rather are disposed to say in all Humility, not wholly Christian, j 'God guard England, for the task sur passes the energy of man. " . mnn t I I i T71 TT TVTITI in favor of liberal appropriations, and a free-and-eafey administration. . 1 The v rings have their organs, and thev also have their Senators and Representatives. :i. - ,The loose-and-liberal peoplelaeed no particular organship any where. They are friends of Mammon, and hnd in the organs of protection all they de sire.' A high tariff means a large sur plus. The man who expects big sala ries, big jobs, big appropriations looks to the surplus for his sinews of war. He is the born foe of economy. If he is chief of his faction, and exponent of a certain political influence, he may deceive the people for a time by the loud cry of economical government. But he gets the surplus all the same by declaring at the beginning of every Congress that there is going to be no surplus. His fuglemen and followers know better. They let him cry what he will ; their cry is a "far cry," even to "Loch Awe." Now all this makes government at Washington under a thoroughly hon est and intelligent . Administration very difficult. If the Secretary of the Interior enforces the land laws, the ring fills the papers with abuse of the Laud Commissioner. Knowing that Mr. Lamar, the Secretary, is unassail able, they; belabor Commissioner Sparks for being brusque, and igno rant, punishing the guilty with the innocent. Not that they care a groat for the innocent : they merely do not intend to see the guilty punished, if printers' ink will prevent. f Mr. Bayard's appointments are pick ed to pieces by this venal press, as if these newspapers felt more responsible than all other people for the mainten ance of the national name abroad. The President himself is bitterly assailed for appointing some men, while he is denounced with equal ma lignity for not appointing others. , Jhese assaults are all of a piece. Thev are stabs at an honest Adminis tration by those who make money out of politics in ; ways that are dark and tricks thatare vain." The Messenger has closely watched this Administration since the 4th of March, and it is prepared- to declare its belief that a more upright and in dustrious, a more far-seeing and Dem ocratic Administration never existed in this or any other country. It warns the people, who, like itself, may differ with Mr. Cleveland and his Sec.eta ries on some one or two points, that the datk powers of evil in our politics are all allied against him because he is riot of their house ; and the Messen ger further appeals to the generous people of North Carolina to sustain the general course of this honest and able Executive and let the world know that nowhere in our borders for a sin gle moment is there any countenance extended to the malign spirit of polit ical profligacy. The time has come when all factious opposition to the President in the Democratic party shouldease. No matter whether his views on silver coinage are approved or condemned, he is making a grand fight with the leagued powers of cor ruption and extravagance. In that contest he must be sustained. Do not, then, disarm the party for proper sup port by a faction quarrel over silver, the tariff or any other issue. . The proposition to suspend silver coinage may well be defeated, but the defeat should leave no bitterness behind. Let both sides remember that the mo tives of the other are worthy of re spect, and act accordingly. The Mes senger does not expect entire har mony, but it invokes to that end the best efforts of all. MR. CAMPBELL AND THE CASE OF DAKOTA. Mrlr-Campbell is too unanimous. He is always unanimous for Campbell. Really if Dakota had wanted to get honestly into the Union of States she should have selected'some other advo cate than the wretch whe aided in the rape of Louisiana from the Democrats in 1876-'77V Mr. Campbell's petty flings at the Southern Senators who lead in suggesting an investigation into the doings of the so-called Legis lature of the so-called State ojf Dakota are beneath their notice, and deserve the contempt of silence. The only persons who thmk Mr, Campbell makes a good defence are those who enjoy a retort of "rebel" upon Southern men who apply the word. We have all be come accustomed to such things. Let Mr. Vest and Gen. Butler pass it by as the mere mote in the sunbeam or the froth on the surface ot the pool. As to the admission of Dakota, it will be ample time to pais on the ques tion when it comes up. AVe are fair enough to be willing for her to come into the sisterhood of States when it is undoubted that she nas sufficient population of a stable character, when all her people are agreed oa the terms, wlten she comes modestly as becometh a new people and asks and not de mands the privilege . of Statehood. Like Mr. Holman, the Messenger would have s whole and not a trun cated State of Dakota when we have any... Let her not be divided.

Within two or three weeks seral violent . storms have visited ulantic coast. The destruction in life and property has been unusual. The New England peo ple especially have suffered; ; The Signal Service has been of great use . in preventing vessels going out which were ready to undertake a short or Jong voyage. . Another agency in preserving human life and ships and cargoes is the; Savings Service. If "it were not for these two products of our civilization how great might be the list of casualties in , increase of what it is known to be !; Let us indulge the fond hope that in the days to come we may have such an extension of the facilities for sav ing life and property as will greatly mitigate such horrors as those which swell the accident columns of the newspapers. Improvements , in the workings of the Weather Bureau may yet lead to grand results. It is possi ble to make a weather forecast for several days which may be a reliable as the twelve hours indication. When the science of meteorology has at tained that stage it will go f ar-$ward lessening the dangers of the sea, and also toward bettering the condition of the agriculturist and others whose vo cation depends on the knowledge of the weather. PROGRESS AND RAILROADS. Progiess is made in the South not only in manufactures, mines and the building up of towns and cies, but in the extension of railroad linesJ In deed, it may well be assumed that much of this advance movement has been due directly to the railway build ing. The development of Warrenton in this State was entirely due in the first instance to this cause. The Railway Age says : "We find that the total length of main line, not including the second track, sidings or renewals, laid, in the United Staes during 1885 was 3,113 miles. The principal activity has been in the Southern States and in the belt be tween the Missouri River and the Pa cific States and Territories." APACHE ASSASSINS. Things must be much worse than reported if the statements just received from ranchmen in Arizona and Texas concerning Indian depredations are even partially correct. The scene of the massacres ?is Western New Mex ico and Eastern Arizona. Dozens of families are said to have been butch ered by the savages, and the news has not until now reached the more civil ized parts of the country. The red devils who thus sate their hellish lust for blo,od are the detestable Apaches, meanest of marauders in all the West ern hemisphere. It is stated that the people in those far-off lands cease to rely on the soldiers for defence. Thej Governor of Arizona is in favbr of a! ranger force organized by the Terri tory, i Certainly almost all former efforts to suppress Indian forays and out breaks have failed when attempted by the regular army. It would appear that the idea of a Territorial corps of rangers, composed of men who are familiar with Indian modes of war fare, inured to hardships, and who know the region of country they have to traverse, is the very wisest sugges tion that has been made by any one. It has been tried before, in Texas and elsewhere, and found practicable. While humanity requires that the Federal Government should deal equit ably with the redskins, it also demands that the lives of the settlers, who are attending strictly to their own con cerns, should be rendered secure at their homes and in their vocations. It must be admitted that some of the whites give great provocation. Just as we had penned the above para graphs the following, on the other side, fell under our notice. It is a dis patch from San Francisco : "Pursuant to instructions from the Secretary of War orders were issued yesterday to troops A and K, 2d cav alry, to proceed to Arizona. They are Deing disnatcned to nrotect the Indians on the San Carlos reservation. from a threatened attack by whites. Major Gordon will command the cav alry. The date of their departure will not be fixed until, dispatches shall have been received from Gen. Crook indicating the point in Arizona in which the troops shall take up their position." President Cleveland contributed $100 to the Grant monument fund on the last day of 1885. " Accompanying the contribution is the hope, that the association will succeed in its object. TWO billion bushels of corn is the Government estimate of the hist year's crop. Add to this 629,000,000 bushels of oats and 357,000,000 bushels of wheat, and you have a full view of our cereal business. The market value of the three crops is stated at $1,000, 000,000. This is said to be the largest crop of cereals on record. A bushel a week for each inhabitant is the esti mate. Not much starvation in such figures, to be sure.

The New Year opened gloriously in Washing ton., Even the baffled office-seeker and the stalwart critic of Mr. Cleve land's .policy: smiled as ne.- looked upon the streaming, .sunshine ' and inhaled the pure ajrjof- a brand new period; Then it was exhilarating, too, to watch the lins of carriages moving toward or from the White House. . Gentlemen who have . been used to these things say that the reception was the largest, handsomest and every way best or - dered reception ever known here. The toilets were exceedingly brilliant. Miss Cleveland Mrs. Bayard, Mrs. Carlisle adjd all the. other ladies were, becom ingly, not to say magnificently, ar rayed (I write on" hearsay, and don't mean to particularize one bit, ladies.) Ilie programme was carried out as fiilly as possible.' The cabinet recep tions, which followed, were well at tended. j Generally throughout the city the practice of making calls was well kept up, the gentlemen of Washington not imitating those further North who have abandoned the cheerful custom. .The North Carolina members are all expected to be here by Monday night in time for Tuesday's reopening: of the Congress. It is probable that some of them will arrive to-night. Members from other States are already coming in. The talk is chiefly of the silver and succession bills, tariff legislation, of ; which it is agreed there will be same, the appropriations, Jetc. My forecast as to leading committees is little in need of amendment judging trpm to dav's gossip. But they now say that Wilkins, of Ohio, will prob ably eret the Committee on Banking and Currency. Gov. Curtin's fight for his old chairmanship, that ot roreign Affairs, has been very earnest. But he may instead be offered some other, probably that of Military Affairs. The report this afternoon is that he has said he will not accept the latter. Jlhe President expects the Senate to sesan his nominations for appointments closely. He understands that to be the function of the Senate under the Constitution. The recess appoint ments will all be submitted for action tothe Senate Col. A. W. Gibson, of Macon, Ga., has been appointed Superintendent of the Mouse-Document Room, vice John Charles Thompson, of Kentucky, who becomes Surveyor General of Wyo ming Territory. I am sure the North Carolina legion who call to pay their respects to Assistant Superintendent Vvtilliams will be as much pleased with the urbanity of this gentleman as with that of his gentlemanly predecessors. I he Civil Service Commission have found it necessary to adopt a rule drop ping all applicants who are not reached in six months from the date of their applications. Commissioner Eaton, in his report on the subject, says : fin most of the States thus far the number of applicants has not been be yond the number needed at the exam inations, while in some of them, and also at several of the postoffices and customs offices, and in the District of Columbia especially, the excess has become considerable. Ou the first of November last the records of the Com mission showed that while the District or iOiumma is entitled to only tour appointments out of 1,000, it had 285 applicants seeking examination. Mary land, which is entitled to nineteen ap pointments out of 1,000, had 284 ap plicants on the records more than twice the number from the six New England States, with New Jersey and Delaware added." Virginia, which is entitled to thirty appointments out of 1,000, had 261 applicants, or more than twice as many as all those from Texas and all the other States bordering, on the Gulf of Mexico, with those from South Carolina added. Delaware, which is entitled to three appointments oui oi ,uuu, naa more applicants man Wisconsin, Minnesota, Florida and Vermont combined. Pennsylvania, which js entitled to eighty six appoint ments out of 1,000, had 25S applicants, or 39 more than New York, which is entitled to 102 appointments out of 1,000. Ohio, which is entitled to 64 appointments out of 1,000, had 232 ap plicants on the records, being almost twice as many as there are from the States ot Michigan, Wisconsin, Min nesota, Iowa, Missouri and Kansas The ' excess of woman applicants is much greater than that of men, al though six times as many men as wo men are required by the departments for appointment, and the CommiBion has no authority whatever on the sub ject." New committee rooms have been" recently made out of queer quarters in the Senate wing. The pressure for room, is as great as ever. The Senate reporters' gallery has been refur nished. The telegraph instruments have been moved back so as to give more light. Senator Voorhees is preparing an address on the late Vice President Hendricks, to be delivered at the Con gressional memorial meeting, which will probably be held on the 20th inst. I The public debt statement issued this afternoon shows a reduction of the public debt of $9,089,939.84 for the month of December. The Secretary of the Treasury issued a bond call for $10,000,000 three per cent, bonds, payable February 1st. 1886. It is understood that the call was made by Secretary Manning in order to remove from the minds of the public any apprehension as to a dis turbance in the money market grow ing out of aiy or continued shipments of gold to foreign markets.1 It is said that sufficient calls will be made when ever it is evident that a supply of gold is necessary to meet demands of this character. The Treasury Department holds that the importations of distilled liquors in dwnijohns holding more than one quart and less than fourteen gallons is illegal. Goat and sheep skin rugs made up of pieces of skin sewed to gether inthe form of rugs are'held to be dutiable at 20 per cent, ad valorem as dressed furs on the skin. It is said that the old war between line and staff of the navy will be re vived with unusual bitterness. - James Christmas, the fourteen-year-old son of Mr. James Y. Christmas, son-in-law Of the late Mrs. Gaines, has been appointed to a pageship in the House of Representatives. Among recent visitors : Mr. Herbert H. Page, of Edenton; Maj. W. H. Malone, of Asheville,' and Mr. Eugene P.'Albei, of Winston. - . The weather nas been so mna this holiday ' recessi members of Congress i haVe gone on excursions in all direc tions. One patty went last "week to New Orleans; one this week to Boston and three ot four exarray 'v officers among them visited 'the battlefield of Manassas '; 1 'x J',x: j The President received five hundred people on Wednesday. The largest number t he , has heretofore shaken bands with in one day was 240. About fifty ladies and gentlemen did not in flict this punishment, seeing how mat ters stood. Ike President goes through it smilingly. .He said in answer to a lady's commiserating speech on Wed nesday that this was the easiest time he had during the day. If shaking bands wkh.fi ve hundred, people whom , K never expects to see again is' the . easiest work he has to do, how must the other part of his duties wear on the Chief Magistrate of the Republic ! Really, what is the use of bonne. an officer who has his mind and hands full of public business! There is no newspaper correspondent here who does not pity the President, whoever may be in the White House. Nearly six columns of fine type were used by the Star in telling who would receive and who would not receive visitors New Year's. Messrs. Bayard and Lamar were absent from cabinet meeting Thurs day. The latter is expected to return on the 8th. The passing away of the old year and entrance of the new were observed by a number of church and other so cieties in this city. Beautiful music was rung out by the Metropolitan Church chimes, Professor Widdows.
