Address THE MESSENGER PUBLISHING CO., Coldsboro, N. C. The Senate passed the bill appro priating $500,000 to baild a monument to Abraham Lincoln. Bismarck!; attempt to Germanize Prussian Poland by force exceeds in iitrocity any recent event in history. Gov. Fitzhugh Lee, of Virginia, has issued a special proclamation in regard to the question of State indebt edness. It is a strong paper. . The ! president of Sharp's railroad and several of the aldermen impli cated in the charges of bribery in granting to it privileges are under ar rest in New York. The municip 1 scandal is rapidly overshadowing all other scandals of. modern life. Col. Herbert, of Alabama, began a recent speech with the declaration that in the! President and in the suc cess of his Administration lay the hope of Democratic ascendency, and he had no sympathy with .those Democrats who seemed to think that the hope of Democracy lay in the destruction of the present Administration . By a promptness commendable on account of its necessity in order to spare great effusion of blood, Col. Barnard, United States Commandant at Laredo, Texas, stopped two local factions from cutting each other's throats or shooting out each pther's hearts the other day in street warfare. There wasio authority for the inter ference, but the action of tho officer is justified on aecount of the circum stances. . . . The House Committee on Commerce has instructed Representative Dunham to report favorably his bill to author ize the President to apppinKnspectors of live stock, dressed meats andj hog products intended for foreign ship ment to a number not exceeding fif 'teen for any one custonV&district The bill makes it a misdemeanor, punish able by fine, imprisonment and for feiture of goods, to import into the United States any adulterated or un wholesome food or liquor,"and author izes the President to suspend the im portation of any article which he has "good reason to believe is injurious to the health or welfare of the people. We trust that the potent voice of Senator Ransom will be raised to pre vent the madness proposed in Wash ington. A joint or any other caucus ot the legislative branch to remon strate with the President or to shape for him a policy in administration could only be productive of great harm to the Democratic patty. The Demo crats in tho Congress have more than many .people think they can do to har monize their difference on other ques tions. When the President attempted to influence sentiment in the House last year on the silver issue he was promptly and properly rebuked. Now when the Congress or the Democrats thereof propose, as is alleged, to dic tate to. the President in matters of his own province,, we I hope the rebuke given will be equally complete. The people like fair play and good sense. - The scenes about the Parliament building in London last Friday, ex celled anything ever known in En gland. The early claiming of seats memjbers themselves remaining all day r in the hall the dense and patient crowd in the streets,, vociferously ap plauding the Premier as he entered and long afterward ; the masterly speech of Mr. Gladstone, explaining the government's proposed plan of ac tion, and the tremendous effect it pro duced upon all England and the civil ized world how shall any adequate account of the matter be written ? The reports received by telegraph, which are necessarily meagre and imperfect, convey an impression of a scene tran scending in interest any which our generation has witnessed. But how much greater must have been the reality ! A whole country, and that country at once the richest and most thoroughly civilized in Europe, seems to have been moved to th centre of its being, seems to have been moved as it never had been moved before in any of , those grand National crises which are way-niarks in constitutional history and white stones in the path way of civilization. On the following evening Mr. Chamberlain, late a mem ber of the cabinet, and Lord Harring ton, one of the Whigs, spoke effect ively against the Irish measure. pA SAD BLUNDER. 'T The! action of theauthbrities in arra2 . . . - . . -i . & ing a lot of raw deputies with .Win chester rifles and turning them with out sober-minded officers on a mob of strikers and their sympathizers, is a terrible blunder, not to say crime. Six men and one woman were killed in thefirst encounter, and several per sons, including children, were wound ed. IRone of these were strikers. Thej Messenger, -in common with the thbughtful part of the American public, condemns in the strongest terms the use of violence, whether practiced by offenders against the law and the security of the community, or by those who seek to establish order in the, midst of insurrection. In . the Missouri Pacific affair both sides at different times have been much to WmA. Whatever the merits of the strikJ in the first instance, and the matter is involved in Houbt and diffi cnltyj the strikers had no right to re sort to force to keep men trom engag ing in the service of the railroad. But on the other hand, if Gotild had car ried out his agreement for an arbitra tion, iall would have been well; cer tainly these men and the poor unof fendihg women would not have been slaughtered. Let ,, responsibility be placed where it rightly belongs. The leaders of the Knights of Labor made honorable efforts to avert the explo sion and its consequences. They plead earnestly with the mob to disperse. Havihg done all that was possible to bringj the matter to a peaceful adjust mentl both in New York and in St Louis, they must be held blameless by a jus have with depu ; public opinion. The rioters, we said, merit the public indignation which they are visited. The ies were at least guilty of the common law crime of manslaughter They! seem to have been panicked, otheriwise their crime would have been S that pf murder in the first degree. THE MORAL' GRANDEUR OF GLADSTONE'S POSITION. j L There are moral heights which only a few statesmen ever ascend. The triumph of oratory and statesmanship achieved by Mr. Gladstone in his great speech in the House of Commons on presenting his Irish measure of home rule was such as no public man in our time has won, and such as has indeed never been surpassed if ever equalled. It is not merely as a piece of eloquence, not simply as a master stroke of poli tics, that the effort strikes the Ameri can rjeader's mind. As oracory it may have! been inferior to some other speeches of the first orator of later En glariJA Indeed, some of the London accounts of it so represent it to have been. And as mere politics, intended for its temporary effect, the Premier's magical efforts on two or three recent occasions may be said to have been greater. But, by and large, in its luminous unfolding of a grand' idea of practical justice ; in its serene poise above the world of chance and calcu lation!; in its philosophic summary of present duty seen in the light of pasti neglect ; in its mingled wisdom of the worldand wisdom of the poet, it was the noblest point reached in a life of singular fidelity and grand ability. They call him impulsive, and very impulsive he is. But no mere impulse of1 a nature however fine accounts for the large view which Mr. Gladstone takes. He is no sentimentalist mouth ing fine phrases. Tongue and pen have been given to liberty, and the great treasures of heart and intellect have been poured out lavishly for the benefit of his countrymen and poster ity. He has grown to this estate, not leaped into it by a bound. His plan of government for Ireland, rational in itself, is yet purely English. True, when we consider the vast powers parted with we are almost stunned by the rebound from he contemplation of the Ireland of the past five hundred years. But England lost one set of colonies by withholding rights of local self-government, and afterward she conceded these rights to many of her remaining possessions. The genius of enfranchisement has been busy -all these later years. The anomaly of Ireland cannot last. The time for Irish emancipation has come. It may be delayed a little longer by the blind ness of local English interests, as the scene on Friday night when the Pre mier was badgered by one of his late colleagues would indicate, but come it will in the present generation . It is understood that the Senate- Postoffice Committee will recommend the rejection of the nomination of Mr. Button for postmaster at Lynchburg, a. Mr. Button is editor of the Lynchburg Yiryinian, and a recent issue of his paper contained an article of a humorous nature, but very severe upon Republican Senators. It named each one, and pointed Out the failings they possess in the editor's opinion inis introduces a new element into the controversy between the President and the Senate the element of humor The thing was grim enough before Brother Button made jokes at the ex pense of the grave and reverend small boys of the Executive council. When the country laughs Edmunds & Co. out of countenance about their foolery may De Urolner .Button's humor will be less considered in the Senate. Heally, now, this is a funny business.

Republican de serves the thanks of our people for its manly and patriotic rebuke of the Holyoke editor's insolence and insult ing tirade of recent date. In its issue of the 8th the Republican publishes a letter from our Mr. : H, T. McLeod, which we copy elsewhere in this paper. In calling attention to it, the editor says: - ' "' . "Capt. E. L. .Peck, one of the re presentatives of the 27th-regiment as sociation who went to Goldsboro, has expressed m a letter to the Goldsboro Messenger his indignant - repudiation of an insult so gross that follows fast after the generous reception given him. H. T. McLeod writes to The Republican from Goldsboro, prefacing the letter given below with this private explanation: "I have no other "wish than to counteract any feeling which the article m the Transcript might create. The return of the fla'g to the rifles was an act which had it been 'studied for the occasion could not have produced a finer effect My article may be severe, but no more so than the" occasion demands:" In aneditorial on the same subject the Republican says : 'The peculiar infe.icity, to employ no stronger words, that marked the conduct of the editor of the Holyoke Transcript in sending his gratuitous arid insulting message to to the North Carolina soldiers, is made sufficiently clear man article elsewhere printed. The facts sneak for themselves. But heat provokes heat, and Mr. McLeod's rebuke comes back from Goldsboro propelled wiih a good deal of earnest ness. We are in receipt, too, of in dignant letters from our own veterans of the 27th regiment. No wonder they are stirred with feeling. But we will leave a greater than all those to deal with the editor of the Transcript. In the last interview which Gen. Grant with Gen. Buckner; the confederate soldier who was called upon to act as pall-bearer for the great Union leader, the sick man said: 'I have witnessed since my 'sickness just what I wished to see ever since 'the J war harmony and good feeling between 'the sec tions.' The soldiers wjo did not fol low the body of Gen. Grant full of this sentiment which expressed his last great service to the country, are few inded, but one of them lives in Hamp den county. It will be seen also that the said Holj'oke editor denies having mailed his insulting sheet to the Rifles in this city. The paper came through the mails without a postage stamp the strongest evidence that it had been mailed direct from the Transcript office, the editor's denial notwithstanding. AT REST. The silver contention in the House came to au end on Friday. The final struggle-arose on Mr. Bland's proposi tion for free coinage. To this, after a whole day's, almost a whole week's debate, Mr. Dibble, of South Carolina, moved an amendment providing for a suspension of silver coinage. Upon tnis amendment tne vote stood yeas 84, nays 201. All of the North Caro- V"- i "i mi una memoers voted nay. ine main question recurring, the yeas and nays showed ayes 126, noes 103. Seven of the North Carolina Representatives, Messrs. Bennett, Cowles, GreenJohn ston, O'Hara, Reid and Skinner sup ported the bill, and two, Messrs. Cox and Henderson, opposed. Thus, after more than a month's discussion, the country knows what it knew in the beginning, .that the House of Representatives is in favor of the wise policy of letting things alone when you can't improve them. The Messenger's representative at Washington elsewhere outlines the new measure of finance to be reported by the Banking and Currency Com mittee. 0UK WASHINGTON LETTER Status of the Blair Education Bill. The North Carolina Vote on Silver Propositions. the Staff Corresporiaence of the Messenger.! Washington, April 10. All of the Indiana and Western members of the House are by no means disposed to attribute to the President's policy the failure of the Democrats to carry cer tain municipal elections. Mr. Bynum and others have been interviewed by my newspaper associates, and take broad and friendly ground in favor of supporting the Administration. Mean time the clamor continues, and there is talk this afternoon of a joint caucus of both houses' to counsel a? change of policy. It will accomplish only bad results. The President will make of course more and more removals, but he cannot go back upon his solemn pledges, and these men are merely doing what they can to prevent the future success of the Democratic party. They cannot stop the wheels of the car of reform. The status of the Education bill cannot be obtained more definitely than the following; statements will show : I find some of the prominent friends of the measure two or three either reticent or in the spirit to concede greater division than was first thought in the Labbr Committee, to which the measure -ivas last referred. It is claimed by some of its enemies that nine members of the committee out of thirteen are opposed to some or all of the bill's features, and that on next Friday at the earliest this will be made manifest. The statement is made that the majority lean to some thing like the Morrill Senate bill, which proposes to . distribute among the States the proceeds of the sales of public lands. A bill may be reported on Monday, at the next sitting of the committee, but I think that is doubt ful, i The Blair bill's friends are almost paralyzed by the opposition the meas ure meets with in the committee of their choice. The following members of the committee besides Messrs. Crain and Lawler, whose opposition has been avowed on the floor in debate, are said to bd against the bill in some or all of its provisions: Messrs. Foran, Daniel, Tarsney. Mr. Willis, who is the leader of the Blair bill forces, it is said tried to get the committee, after he saw how matters stood, to consent to reporting back the bill to the tlouse witnout a word of suggestion of any ;sort. .But the most that could r be done was to stavft off APtinn until Mondav. The majority of the committee, it is learned, will -insist on considering, section by section. I think that the prospect of the passage of the bill in the House is not cheerful,, and j that there are chances that if it shall squeeze through the President will veto it. This would finish it i .stanter, since there are no two-thrds in favor who could carry the measure in spite of the veto. This Trojan horse ought never to have been admitted into the Congress. The North Carolina delegation was a unit on the question of the suspen sion of silver coinage, brought up by Mr. Dibble's amendment to the Bland free coinage bill, in voting against it. The vote stood, ayes 84, noes 201. On the bill itself the delegation divided, two, Messrs. Cox and Henderson, against and all the others, all being present and voting, in favor of free coinage. These votes were taken on Thursday after an all-day's debate. I learned on yesterday some impor tant information touching financial mai ters. As the Evening Star of to-day contains the same in somewhat more extended form, I copy ; '"The commit tee on Banking and Currency expects now to have its innings on financial matters. WheQ the committee is next called they will move to suspend the rules to fix a day to consider the bill they have reported to the House, pro viding for the issue of small denomi nation silver certificates. On Monday they expect to introduce a bilL in the House through Mr. Wilkins, one of the committeemen, which will have for its purpose the prevention of the circulation of currency. It will pro vide that cash deposits to the amount of 70 or 80 per cent. the per cent, is not yet settled upon definitely be made by the National banks to secure their circulation as fast as the Govern ment bonds now on deposit are called for payment ; and that a small tax be levied on the banks for a sinking fund t3 secure the difference between the circulation and the deposit in case of a bank's failure." Secretary Manning has sat up some since my last report. He is otherwise unchanged. Mr. Lamar looks the worse for his recent illness. He was in the House a short while yesterday, and went to New York to-day. Yesterday, in the Senate, Mr. Teller characterized the speech made by Mr. Gladstone as the greatest ever made on the subject to which it related, and made by probably the greatest man of the age. Reading one of the sentences which proclaimed the necessity for sympathy with the law on the part of the people, Mr. Teller said Gladstone's words would live as long as the Ln erlish language lived. In the House Mr. O'Neil, of Missouri, asked unani mous consent for consideration of reso lutions of sympathy with Gladstone and Ins associates in their efforts to secure a tree I'arnament ror tne peo ple of Ireland, and congratulating the people of that hitherto unhappy coun try on the prospect of an early and successful termination of their long and patriotic struerg-le for the rig-lit of loyal self-government, but Gen. Cox objected; and the resolutions were not received. Gen. Cox explained on an appeal made to him by-Mr. McMillin, ot Tennessee, to withdraw his objec tion : "I think this is interfering with the legislation of another country, and I must adhere to the objection." I have heard bis course commended by those not unfriendly to Ireland. There is jso much stark demagogy m the House that when a member takes a risk like this of injuring his popularity, frank men, speak out in commenda tion. Such a resolution would be more appropriate after the adoption of the home rule programme. The investigation into the alleged conduct of two House employees, one of them the Speaker's clerk and the other the assistant doorkeeper, may be summed up in the statement that these parties Messrs. Stealey, of the Courier-Journal, and Warder, both In dianians paid money for citizens of Jeffersonville, Ind., to an attorney to be used in influencing legislation for a lobal improvement. It is denied by the custom house offi cers at San "Francisco that the Chinese minister and suite were treated with any indignity, or were unnecessarily detained on the day of their landing. On the contrary, say these officers, unusual indulgence was granted, and the terins of the law not complied with. Somebody has lied. Publications haye been made which show a difference between Secretary Lamar and Land Commissioner Sparks on the subject of the latter's suspen sion of final action in land patents a year ago and the Secretary's? vacation of the order. The charge was that Mr., Lamar's action was in the inter ests of land grabbers. At the Interior Department this is denied. It is said that Mr. Sparks' order was only justi fied for the time being, but that it would have been an arbitrary stretch of power to have continued it longer than one year. Such measures, it is held, ought always to be temporary. It is further stated that the step was only decided on after it was seen that the Commissioner was not going to act upon suggestions made to nim by the Secretary. On Thursday a long list of collectors of customs, land registers and receivers of moneys, &c, was sent in to the Sen ate. A shorter and less important list wa s sent yesterday. The Senate Postoffice Committee has decided to reject the nomination of Col. W .. W. Herbert for postmaster at Alexandria, not on account of objec tion to him, but because the Republi cans desire td have his predecessor answer the chargeV against him now on file in the department. Similar cases will be disposed of in the same way. Col. Herbert is the gallant Con federate officer who commanded the Virginia escort when the remains of the North Carolina dead were sent from Arlington via Alexandria to Ra leigh. ' The Library bill came up in the Senate just as it left the House, and passed in a moment's time. It will probably be signed by the President and become a law on Monday. There has been great rejoicing among its many friends. The Senate was in session contrary to its haoilt to-day (Saturday) for a short time. ; ' The bill admitting Wash ington Territory as a State passed, 30 to 13. The negative votes were all Democratic and the following Demo crats voted with the Republicans for the admission : Messrs. Butler, George, Jones, of Arkansas, and Morgan. Mr. Hearst, Democrat? of California, just admitted, voted with the majority of his party. ' , Judge Bennett thinks he will intro- duceon Monday a bill in relation to the treatment of prisoners in Federal prisons. The large number 6t deaths in the penitentiaries from typhus fever is a startling fact, he says, which ap peals to the, sensibilities of humane men 'and demands legislation which will insure greater cleanliness m the quarters and some shortening of the hours of work. . ! Mr. Skinner's bill to render avail able an appropriation of 1884 for a lighthouse near Croatan, and which was favorably reported some days since, passed the House unanimously this afternoon. The appropriation was for $15,000. Mr. Randall, who forced amendments in some; bills of similar character, gave this- one his personal endorsement on the floor. Messrs. J. A. Gray, of Winston; Frank Brown, of Davie; J. M. Mc Leod and J. O. Howell, of Asheville ; S. H. Wiley, of Salisbury, and McB. Holt are North Carolina arrivals .for the last three days. Mr. Edmund Jones has just returned to his official duties after a. three weeks' visit to his home at Lenoir. Caldwell county. Senator Ransom, who went home indisposed a few days ago, is feeling better, and expects to return to-morrow night. Senator Vance was looked for this afternoon . Col.
