IS ftIKO pu Wished from the Messenoer press. Bub- icnption, ji perannum i ioria wura The Transcript and Messenger has the largest circulation, of, the political papers in Nona arouua. Sporaihc cases of cholera have oc curred in Italy. Almost every day something occurs in the United States Senate suggestive of the propriety of laying aside the star-chamber modes of executive ses sions.. It is said that all hope is gone of getting the Kducatiou Committee to report on auy of the bills before it. Friends of the Educational appropna tion will, try to get the Houee to do something. Ik Congressional life disappointing to the. highest minds! Messrs. Tucker and Barbourr-of-Virginia ; Ramey, of Massachusetts, and some other gentle men, announce their intention not to stand for re-election. Tub seizure in Canada of twenty live hundred copies of the JIarper edi tion of Lord Beacon field's "Lndy mion" is said to have been made at the instance of the Canadian publish ing firm which held the copyright. "Endymion" must be .more admired in, Canada than in England, if it is con sidered worth protecting as a book. A large part of the first edition of the novel brought out in London was sold to the trunk-makers for use as lining paper. " Mn. Randall, writing from Wash ington to the Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle, ways that distinguished Southern Con gressmen have assured him that the "smothering of tke Blair bill by the House Committee .means the ruin of our party at the next elections. Such action, if persisted in, means the loss of the House." We think we can safely venture the assertion that if either of the two pnlrtie in this State were to come out in told opposition to the measure, that party which did would assuredly be beaten at the polls. Wiiilk in Washington recently it was our pleasure to visit the magniri cenf'panorama called "The Battle of Manassas; or, Second Battle of Bull Run,v now exhibited in that city, and over which there has been so many pugnacious comments in the posts oj: the Grand Army Republic and in the columns of the "truly loyal'7 press. The panorama does jnstico to both of the great contending parties, and is well worth seeing. It is a marvelous spectacle, and here representatives of both armies meet and friendpy discuss old war times and the realism of the spectacle before them. A great coun try this! t An attempt was made last week in Sicily to capture and hold for high ransom the grandsou of the great Lord hfelson. The brigands were driven away with difficulty from the young gentleman's castle, and four of them yere captured by the loyal .servants. The Hon. Victor Albert Nelson Hood i$ son -of the present and third Baron ijridport, whose father was the hus band of Lady Charlotte, daughter of Admiral Nelson by his beautiful mis tress Lady Hamilton. The young man's father is equerry to the Queen of Italy and Duke of Bronte in Sicily. Such forays are more like the Dark Ages than the last quarter of the en lightened nineteenth century. The claim of George W. Wil liams, 'the colored historian, for a years salary as Minister resident and Consul General to Hayti, and charge d'affaires at San Domingo, is to bo submitted to a judicial test, it i . . - seems. Williams, according to his pe tition to the court, was nominated by Ijresident Arthur, and his nomination ; confirmed by the Senate on the 2d of - March, 1885. The next day he re ! ceived his commission ; and, on the i 4th of March, an hour or two. before the ceremonies of President Cleve land's inauguration began, he took the oath of office. He has never, he de clares, been suspended or dismissed the service. But the appointment of another to the same - office operated certainly as a dismissal. If Mr. Wil- ' - hams will consult the writings of Thomas Jefferson, he will find therein it precedent for the course pursued in this caseby the present Administra tion); In the year 1801 Mr. Jefferson, wh.o had just become President, made the following frank statement of one feature of his, civil service policy : ' 'All appointments to civil -offices during pleasure," made after tho event of the -election was certainly known to Mr. Adams, are considered as nullities. 1 do not view the persons appointed as oven candidates for the office, without noticing or- notifying them. : Mr. AdamVbest friends have agreed that this is right.'1 All readers -of history remember his action in the case of the " midnight . judges an action sus tained by the Supreme Court m the -sase of Marbury against Madison. HOW TO INDUCETJMMIGR A? TION. - c EvvyresideJ&t;;planter aiid land owner in North Carolina own much mote land than fie can rirontabjy.cul tivate. - Every such land owner would' be more comfortable, and more favorably located, if he had an intelligent and companionable neighbor. This neigh bor would be the , more desirable in proportion as he was able to bring money and experience, and new-ideas and.practical knowledge, to bear upon his efforts in establishing a home. ' In turn the resident land owner would benefit his stranger neighbor. He . ould be able tos tell .him, of the nature and peculiarity of the soil. He could instruct him in jthe proven methods of safe cultivation. He could warn him of the enemies to his crops. He could make him acquainted with the customs, methods, peculiarities and disposition of the colored people. He could, by extending the hospital ity so natural to every thorough North Carolinian, make the new citizen and his family welcome and at home amid their new and strange surroundings. The Messenger will, as stated in a late issue, make a vigorous effort in the direction, of these people, who would make desirable neighbors, and who would bring down, besides their thrift, enterprise, "experience and money, such social qualities and edu cated domestic training as will call for pleasant homes.protected by comfor table apd tastily constructed and ar ranged houses, well kept lawns, yards and gardens, warm barns and sheds. improved stock good horses and car riages. and all the surroundings that go towards making neighborhood at tractive and so largely adds to the value of our lands. Before-: we can bring these people here, wep must know where to; take them, wbo will be ready to welcome. them, what plans we have to otter them, and prices and terms of pay meht, and the possibilities of success -in money making or health building, or the located places designated. We must tell them haw far from churches and their denomination, how far from schools and their character, how far from railroads and stations and mar ket, condition of roads and bridges how the land is watered, and what soil and timber, and the condition of the same as to cultivated lands, old fields, creek and river bottom, pasturage, &c. the houses and buildings if any, or location and description of desira blo building sites. Give the results of crops the past two years, withuumber of bushels of corn per acre and pounds of cotton, also capability under im proved culture and intense farming. Now suppose you (we speak to any individual resident, land owner who desires such a neighbor) own 500 acres and live on and try to cultivate it. Make a rough map of the land and divide it in two farms, giving a fair proportion of upland and bottom, woodland and clearings old field and plowed land to each, uivide it so your house lot is on your own 250 acres, and mark on the map where your neighbor might erect his dwell ing. Offer tlj is 250 acres at the very lowest cash price you can afford to take, always keeping in view tho fact that a new house and barns and an other . family, , and possibly a model farm, with fine crops and improved stock, under which stimulus your own will improve and fully keep pace, will take the place of youf present home stead. You can afford to give to a neighbor who would accomplish this result the land for nothing and be richer in the'end, but fix a price that will induce him to accept. If you are assured of his spending a few thousand dollars in1 improvements, use the money you get; for the land in making the needed additions to your comfort, and the next, year release yourself from the toils of your cotton factor by paying cash for making your crop and save the interest. Our word for it, your wide-awake neighbor would soon show you that the burden you have been carrying for the past twenty years in the way of obligations to the money lender and ruinous interest, could have been lifted at the begin ning by the little money he pays you now for half your plantation, and by a diversity of crops and the care of the stock that together go to make up a system of farming that is not specula tive but sure t pay you out of debt every year, be the season never so bad. With twenty? or more offers of just such places wor will be able to bring down the purchasers during the sum mer and some possibly this spring, and once the movement is begun, the tide of immigration will turn in the direc tion of North Carolina and this desira ble class of immigrants will bring their friends, and neighborhoods will in time build up, and as population. and improvements j multiply the pioneer efforts of liberal land owners, who now extend the inducements of ne ilthyand pleasant homes at reasonable prices to these home keekers, will reap a rich reward. j . The Messenger, invites correspond ence and offers of places, with prices and terms, and especially in the neigh borhood of towns and villages, where the new settler; will not miss the school and church privileges of homei : ' vThe New York Star 'issued a mam moth sheet on Sunday, twelve pages. Much space was devoted to a criticism of, and extracts from, Senator Logan's noveU - The Star is a most excellent paper in all its features. T THE SENATE'S, BACKDOWN! :The grave. and reyerend Rjepnbliean ; seigniors begin to learn what every observant man outside the body could have told them long ago,; that they were on. -a jfoni's errand-; jThey have seen at last t hrough . I he density- of their fog bank the big red light, blad ing with terrible', preternatural as pect, like a great locomotive on a star less night, jthe big: red,: blazing light of popular displeas'ure Nothing ever brings t h e-se -sages to their wisest thoughts bat this colossal fact of what the people jsay.N It is well. '. - - : The reason has been eriven. Now for the event. TheiFinance Commif tee'suddenjjy discover, after the Presi dent and Mr. Manning have contempt uously rejected all . their overtures. that the collectors of internal revenue do not come under the provisions of the Tenure of-Office aet. Thereupon they let down the bars, which they swore like; 'our armv in Flanders" never should be let down. The inter nal revenue collectors are being con firmed right along. Meantime who has remained firm, and who receded I There seems to bo something pecu liarly vocative about Mr.. Edmunds of late. And again we wish to remark, it is well. LEVEli ON SOME THINGS It seems from a Detroit dispateh that the Senator from i Florida, whom a member from that State observed joc ularly had lost his brains while his colleague riever had any to lose, really has opinions on questions before the Congress. 4 Interviewed on the Eads Ship Railway project, Mr. Jones made some remarks to a newspaper man. He is a member of the Commerce, Com mittee of t fie-Senate, which, it is said, is tied bv the absence of the Florida Senator. According to Jones' own statement, were he now on duty, the committee j would report against gov ernmental assistance in carrying out the scheme. "I like Eads,J? said the Florida statesman, "but I do not be lieve m the taxation of the people to aid the projects of private corpora tions. If it is a good thing private capital will put it through ; if it is not, the;Governmenthas no business with it, either from a standpoint at rigftor of policy.'' f If the Senator made this remark, it proxres that whatever his aberration of intellect in matters affecting the heart, he isjquire equal to his Senato rial dtties-f if he would resume them -and sticl to them in Washington and not Detroit. The determination of the Hurd- Romeis election case in the committee was something of a surprise. Until the vote was declared public expecta tion was that the eloquent and learned Frank Hurd would obtain the seat. Mr. Henderson was one of the four who voted to give it to him. Chair man Turner and four other Democrats voted that he was not entitled, and Mr. Turner and two other Democrats that Roraeis (Romize) waa entitled to the seat. The Elections Committees under Mr. Carlisle's Speakership and Mr Turner's Chairmanship certainly no not decide contested cases strictly on party lines. " We notice, however, that the hide-bound, sordid Republi cans always vote for their man, right or wrong. We do not censure Demo crats who vote as their consciences dictate. , OUR WASHINGTON LETTER The Educational Committee's In tensified Opposition, t - - - -- . Death of Mrs. Bobert B. Vance- $taff Correspondence of the Messenger. . WashIxWTON, March 22. The Edu cation Committee intensified its oppo sition to the principle of Federal aid to public schools in the States by in cluding the Blair bill in its deferred action alougwith the Willis bill. Mr. Willis will; introduce his measure in the House Monday and ask reference to another committee. Then will come the tug of war. All the clans will be mustered to effect or oppose this move. A majority is all that is necessary. Mr. Willis now expects nothing from the Educatiou Committee. Some per sons here say that Blair and Willis would both rather the whole measure were defeated than lose their respec tive bills. It is certain that a moder ate bill can pass the House. It is not so certain that the Senate would sub stitute it for the Blair bill. A few further notes about the Fed eral Officers' Fees and Compensation bill will be of interest. The highest salary allowed is $8,000 for District Attorney in Southern New York. Then come a class of States and the District of Columbia rated at $5,000 a year salary. I No fees, are allowed for either district attorneys or marshals. The Westerp North Carolina District and the District of South Carolina are rated at $4,000 for the attorney and $3,500 for the marshal hardly half what the total compensation is now. The Eastern District Attorney gets under the reported bill $3,000 a year ; the marshaL $3,000.-. The highest mar shal's salary (Southern New York) allowed is $5,000. There may be allowed ai the discre tion of the Attorney General one clerk and one chief deputy, if such appoint ments are deemed necessary, who shall be paid as the above are paid ratably to tho amount of business ; that is, in the North Carolina districts the salary shall be fixed by the - Attorney Gen eral, but shall not exceed $1,200 in any case. Where courts are held in more than one place the Attorney General may in his discretion appoint an addi tional clerk br chief deputy (but not both) if the business of the office re quires it, . at a salary not to exceed -$1,000 a yealv These figun are, it is oDseryawe, f vnpt ery altitudinons. There is going to be wailing and gnash ing of teeth in5 Israel.;' - j ; -Other provisions of this verv elabo- ratje and strtngeht measure ate' inter esting. It is perhaps impracticable to present them at present. The bill may not pass without serious modifi cations. In fact I think It is probable an effort will be, made- in the Senate, if not, in the IJouse, to give somewhat larger salaries', to the marshals and some of tho district attorneys. Fees are confined in this bill to minor offi cials, and the system is closely guarded to prevent fraud or exaction. Allow ance is made to officers going" to and returning from court, and marshals in charge of prisoners, for actual trav eling expenses. k ' The Senate in executive session made, the following confirmations; Colleetor of Internal Revenue, fourth District, Missouri; John Moesner. of Texas, to be Consul of the United States at Saltilla; Henry W. Mc Comv. of Tennessee, to be Attorney of the United States for the Western Dis trict of Tennessee ; Wm. C. Jones, of Kansas, to be Marshal of the United States for the District of Kansas ; Jo seph W. Davis, of the, District of Col umbia, to be a Justice of the Pence for the District of Columbia: Robert W. Hutchins, of Eureka, Cal., to be Receiver of Public Moneys at Hum boldt, Cal.; Daniel O. Barr, of Penn sylvania, to be Surveyor of Customs m the District of Pittsburg, -Pa.; V O. King, of Texas, to be Secretary of tho Legation and Consnl General of the United States at Bogota ; Brier. Gen. Alfred H. Terry y-to be Major uenerai ; Andrew Welen, ot Illinois, to be Collector of Internal Revenue for the Second District of Illinois : El D. Bannister, of Indiana, to be Indian Inspector ; John W. Cramsie, of Da kota, to be Indian Agent at Devil's Lake Agency, Dakota: Matthew O'Brien, of Louisiana, to be Supervis ing Inspector of Steam Vessels for the Fourth District. Also, thirty-three I postmasters in various btates and Ter ritories. Postmaster eazey, of Baltimore, has receive i from the Civil Service Commission a letter stating that his explanation of charges filed agrainst him alleging5 violations of the Civil Service law in his office, is regarded as satisractory. secretary Manning has written to Mr. Hewitt, of the Ways and Means tommittee, a Ietteragamst ad valorem auues. j Mr. v an Wyck on the same day offered an amendment to the resolution of Mr. Edmunds to provide that the nominations fof suspended persons shall be considered in open Senate. t T .1 TT1 1 xuessrs. aecjc ana j&amunas nad a sharp tilt Wednesday- on the Duskin case. Gov. Brown, of Georgia, Dem., and Mr. Spooner, of Wisconsin, Rep spoke on the Edmunds resolution Thursday. But the latter did not fin ish until yesterday. He was followed by Mr. Saulsbury, who made a capital point in quoting from the great Sena tor Clayton, of Delaware, that the Sen ate had never decided the matter ad versely to the present President's posi tion. Mr. Crisn, of Georgia, was desig naied by the Speaker to preside over the House yesterday. He also pre sidsd to-day. rriday is always devoted to private business in the House, Friday even ings to pension bills. Among the large number of bills considered last night was one giving $2,000 a year to cue widow or wen. nancocK. it was most zealously championed by Gen. Bingham, of Pennsylvania, formerly a member of Hancock's staff, who was opposed by a fierce fellow named Price, of Wisconsin, who did no fight ing in the war Price is tho same chap who takes every occasion in and out of Congress to villify tho South and abuse the Democrats after the war fashion. He claimed that his motive in opposing this bill was to prevent so much being done for the officers. Bingham is a broad-minded man. On the vote 25 favored the bill and 4 voted against it, whereupon the little sneak called out, "no quorum. The result was made subject to an order sending it over until Monday, when it will pass by a large majority. The Saturdays for debate are su preme bores. About forty members assemble to write their private letters. Some four or five of these read "speeches'' on the silver and every other imaginable 4 'question." No busi ness is transacted. To-day Mr. James, of New York, led off with an unusual ly long-winded effort against the pop ular side of the coinage issue. At a little past midnight this (Sat urday) morning the long-afflicted wife of Gen. Robert B. Yance, Assistant Commissioner of Patents, passedfrom her earthly home to the eternal, pain less abode of the blessed. During the day, as the news was received, the friends of the family called to pay the last offices of respect and sympathy. Senator Vance, who was absent at New Orleans, was telegraphed to and is expected to be at Asheville at the sepulture on Monday. Mrs. Senator Vance is in the city, and has performed the sacred offices of affliction in sickr ness and in mourning. The remains are to be "carried to-night on the through Southern train via the mid land road to Asheville. A service was held at the residence on Rhode Island Avenue by Rev. Dr. Cox, pastor of the Mt. Vernon "M. E. Church South, of which Gen. and Mrs. Vance were par ishioners when in Washington. Mrs. Vance, formerly Mis3 Harriet Malone, of Buncombe county, was an estima ble lady who had been an invalid for many years.' There is great sympathy for her husband and family. Mr. Skinner took part Thursday in the debate m the House on the Indian Appropriation bill. He is a member of the Indian Committee, which re ported the measure. Gen.' Cox has introduced a petition of twenty citizens of Wake county who ask that the Indian Territory be opened to settlers. Gen. Cox has gone home to remain until Tuesday. The preliminary steps to a NoTth Carolina association were taken last night. Ten or twelve gentlemen met and appointed a committee of five, -of which Mr. J. S. Tomlmson was made chairman. This committee will report at the next meeting, Friday evening of next week, a permanent plan of or ganization. Col. Cowles presented a petition on Friday f ronrcitizens of Catawba coun ty, asking for National aid to educa tion. O'Hara presented a similar pe tition of the Rapides Educational So ciety: r i - ' ' ' " Col, Cowles also presented on the same day the petition' of citizens of Cleveland county, asking that a bill be passed to pay expenses of postmasters John D.
