Address THE MESSENGER PUBLISHING CO., Goldsboro, N. C. - The trustees of the Slater fund have appropriated $30,000 for the year's work at the South, of which North Carolina gets $3,G00. The terrible affair at Martinsville," Va., last week, is a warning toalfwho permit their anger to rise to too great a height. It seems to have been the worst merely personal affair reported for many years in that State. The special newspaper train that left New York on Sunday morning, on the New York Central Railroad, made the unprecedented run of eighty-one miles in eighty-seven minutes. The run was, made without a single stop, and water was scooped up "from troughs along the track. The fireman had to turn around and ride backward in order to breathe. The Congressional Convention for this district is called to be held in Clin ton oil the 11th of August. The Exec utive Committee adopted the following resolution: Resolved, That it is the sense of this committee that the peo ple of each county in the district be requested to send full delegations, with alternates, to the convention, and that they appoint such delegates as will attend. "While bnmptuousness is a fault to be avoided, a certain amount of spirit is essential to the assertion of seU respect. If Mr. Smith's children are ill-treated when they go into Mr. Jones' house, nobody , blames Mr. Smith for closing the doors of his own home against Mr. Jones' children. So, when Canada proposes to confis cate American vessels for no worse offence than trading with the people of the Canadian seacoast, it is only right and natural that the United States should close every port in their jurisdiction against Canadian vessels. The Frye amendment to the Shipping bill will thereforemeet with approval." The: Providence, R. I., Journal, in an article on "Business North and South," says that the people of the South have suffered little or no inter ruption to their material prosperity. "The unsettled state of affairs in the North," it continues, "has caused a good deal of capital to now from the North and from Great Britain to the South. It is estimated that during the first three months of this year fully 30,000,000 has been invested in the South in new undertakings, most of it from the North and from England. This is something which should inter est the Northern workingman."- To this the Richmond (Va.) Dispatch adds : 'This is sonifetMrig which should in terest the Southern workingman i too. It speaks volumes for the conservatism of our working classes, and is very suggestive." j The fact is also signifi cant that the working population of the South so much prefer' toil to talk that the iron; works of Chattanooga, Birmingham and North Carolina, the oil fefineries of Memphis, Helena and New Orleans,1 and the cotton; factories of South Carolina and Georgia, are all busy, without a strike, boycott or lockout. Judge Garrison, of Accomac coun ty, Va., in the case of the liquor deal ers who had taken out their license for the year, before local option was adopted in one of the townships, de cided the hcehse annulled, license be ing onlyx a "privilege that the State can at any time revoke," but he quali fied his decision with the remark that the license pajid by the dealer shall be refunded. This seems to us very much like an.r post facto proceeding. The idea that the license is a privilege granted by the State, which.it can at any time revoke at pleasure, it seems to us is utterly untenable as being en tirely in conflict with every principle of right and justice. It is true it is in one sense a privilege, but according to our laws a privilege that the courts cannot, except on eertain grounds, refuse, and jit is therefore a right which those ho desire it can demand by complying: with the law upon the subject, and ; therefore we can only vie w it in the light of a contract, en tered into for a specific period, between the State and the citizen. Can a State with ; justice grant a privilege for a distinct period and without cause rer vase n i vv e wouia lure to t see our leeral friends look into this matter and see how it would affect dhe Goldsboro Jiquor men should local option be car lied. UNFAIR AND EXTRAOBDI- The House of Representatives has not 'treated fairly the friends, of .he Blair Education bill. That measure has been kicked about by first one committee and then another, none giving it a showing. The Education Committee tried to suppress it by post ponement,; and the Labor Committee by substituting far it a measure which did not give satisfaction in any of its more prominent features. By the watchfulness of a North Carolina mem ber it got at last on the calendar, so far down, however, that it will be reached, if at all, too late for consid eration this session. But Mr. Reid is indefatigable. He and other zealous friends of the measure will endeavor on the 3d of June, when the 'House takes up the labor fbills set apart for that day, to have a day appointed on which to consider this bill. We are afraid that this cannot be done. .The session is drawing toward its close. The opposition to the bill is strong and determined. It, is, probably able to stave off any action whatever. If so, no day will be set apart. Thus a measure on which so many, people in North Carolina and other Southern States have set their hearts will fail of securing even a hearing. The coarse of the opposition is most unfair, most extraordinary. HON, GEO. V. STRONG. We are gratified to note the general favor with which the recommendation of the nomination of Hon. Geo. V. Strong to a seat on the Supreme Court Bench, made first through the Mes senger but a few days ago, is received by our exchanges and by the people in this section, where Judge Strong is so well known. The Kinston Free Press says of him : "It is an illustration of the falsity of the proverb that "a prophet is not without honor, save m his own country," that here, where all have, had an opportunity of becoming acquainted with him personally and intimately, are found those most anx ious for his elevation to that distin guished position. It has long been the glory and pride of North Carolina, that ourhighest judicial tribunal has been presided over, with few excep tions, since its establishment, by men of the highest literary culture as well as the most profound legal attain ments. The literary attainments of Taylor, Henderson, Gaston, Ruffin and Pearson were of the highest order, while their legal learning was not ex celled by any of their contemporaries on either side of the Atlantic. That their judicial opinions were frequently quoted with approbation in Westmin ster Hall, as well as the courts of our sister States, affords abundant evi dence of their pre-eminent fitness for the elevated positions which they dig nified and adorned. It should be the pride and honest aim of all who love our State to keep up this high stand ard of our highest judicial tribunal, and to see to it that none but men pos sessing qualifications necessary for carrying out this worthy end should be selected. "We are aware that in our State there are many , who would preside with dignity and honor to themselves and the State in this elevated position, but we believe Judge Strong to be primus inter pares among them. His legal attainments, scholastic and liter ary culture, high 'moral character, firmness of purpose, energy and indus try, eminently fit him for this august position . He is in the prime and,; vigor of his physical and intellectual powers, trained in legal study and judicial analysis, and much beyond the viginti annorum lucubrationes of Lord Mans field. "Judge Strong is not a politician in the accepted sense of the term, other wise he could not be the great lawyer that he is, but he has ever been enthu siastic in his devotion to theprinciples of the Democratic party.' In every, public position to which the people have-called him, he has performed liis duty faithfully and well ; first as a member of the convention of 1861, acknowledged to have been the ablest legislative body ever assembled in the State, next as Confederate States' Dis trict Attorney, then as member of the Legislature, and lastly, as Judge of the Criminal Court of Wake county. "The qualifications necessary for Judges of the Supreme Court are pecu liar and seldom found. "In their judi cial capacityfthey have to decide.the "nicest and most critical points ot the "law, to examine andcorrect-such "errors as have escaped the most ex perienced sages of the profession. "Their sentence is final, decisive and "irrevocaDie : no appeal, no correc tion, not even a review can be had, "and to their determination whatever "it may be, inferior courts of justice "must conform." "A man may be an able statesman, capable of shining in the chamber of the Senate or in the hall of the House of Representatives, he may jiave gifts of oratory so that he can move mul titudes, he may possess the qualifica tions requisite for a Superior Court Judge, and yet be unable to preside with honor and distinction in the Su preme Court.- ' "We believe Judsre Stronsr to have those peculiar qualifications, and are satisfied, if merit receives its due and appropriate reward, he will be selected as a candidate for tne Supreme Court Bench by the State Democratic Con vention." : ' . : " " - Ladies, - Misses and Childrens Under wear at remarkably low price to close out our stock. . M. E. Castbx & Co. A SPANISH , KING BORN. Amid salvos of artillery, shouts of the. multitude atid pious chatter" of priests and nobles the announcement was made that the QuWen of Spain was delivered of a boy baby. The welcome event was arranged for in the usual ceremonious style of the most ceremo nious court of Europe-", His Majesty was sent forth on a; satin cushion placed in a silver sal ver ) Jo j be cooed and crowed over by the hundreds of dames and grandees in waiting who had .come, to,' 'assist" Her Majesty, After all the congratulation deemed necessary, for his unheeding ears had been poured forth,- the royal prodigy was carried back to his mother. The tomfoolery of the Middle Ages lives yet in unprogressive Spain. But the poor little creature, inheriting both disease and misfortune, 6an hard ly be said to have the chance in this world's lottery which some ot his alleged ancestors had. His country retains, the monarchy only because the liberal element has not been thorough ly consolidated. There are several other dynastic possibilities for the Spaniards, 'any- one of which is as likely to become a fact as the contin uance of old Isabella's disreputable bpuse. The born king may never as cend the throne, and the throne its If may be relegated to a dark corner of the palace of the Escurial, there to be viewed by coming generations of Ibe rians as the relic of a black and bigoted and unenlightened past. The free glories of ancient Leon, of hardy As turias and pf magnanimous Aragon may yet be revived with added splen dor. THE FISHERY QUESTION. The Canadian fishery question is watched by the French Government with the closest attention. The ques tion affects France as much as it does the United States. As the trench fishermen are excluded from the bait grounds and from having temporary stations for drying and curing fish on shore, the future of that industry is not encouraging The French states men think that a common action by France and the United States would be the most efficacious course to pur sue. Some think that the English rule requiring all ships, except English, to keep without the three-mile limit may bring on war. There is bad blood already among the fishermen, and a collision between the local fishermen and those from France or the United States may be expected at any time. The Washington correspondent of the New York Herald says: "The Presi dent, it is understood, is very, anxious that the fishery question shall be set tled upon some other basis than by enacting what may be construed as re taliatory measures. It is doubtful whether he would approve a bill en forcing: a heroic policy. He urges that he called the attention of Con- greso to tne importance or tne suDject at the earliest moment. The Senate, however, having rejected the Presi dent's suggestion, it is understood he will fall back upon diplomatic offices to insure a continuance of our friendly relations with Great Britain, and through the usual channels the whole j question in controversy, involving treaty construction and commercial j privileges will be conducted by the j State Department and Minister Phelps on one side, and the British Foreign Office and Minister West here in Wash ington on the other. OPPOSITION TO MEXICAN PENSIONS. The Senate Committee on Pensions voted to postpone indefinitely the House Mexican Pension bill and to re port as a substitute the first seven sec tions of the bill introduced in Decem ber by Senator Mitchell, of Pennsyl vania. These are substantially the Mexican Pension bill, passed by the Senate last session. The committee is opposed to a service pension, and insists upon making dependence and inability necessary qualifications of a pensioner. It looks now as if Congress would not be able to adjourn before August. But the members don't like hot weather, and therefore it. is probable that they will inaugurate night ses sions earlier than usual, with a view of getting through with much business before the dog days corner Of course when so much business is crowded into such a short period, it is but superfi-. cially considered, and hence it is that so much loose legislation is done in the last days of every session. We thought so. The 9th Regiment of New York,. Clanna-Gall societies, and olher organizations in this coun try, are tendering their services to pu down rebellion in Ulster against home rule. It is time all this fighting talk) were put an end to. The British Em pire is not going to be rent to pieces in fratricidal war. The home rule programme will be carried out peace ably, it may be only after the next election. But it will be done, and bluster on both sides will have nothing to do with the question. Dr. W.

Respectfully, i declO-tf : Db. W. H. FINLAYSON OUR ,WASHINGT0N:a LETTER The Norih! Carolina 'Members in the House. "'2 -'if C ' , ' '"- ' ' ' " .'I:'."'. ;'' :" ' What Gen. Cox Saya About His Renomination. Staff Correspondence of the Messeng-er. Washington May'18. The House passed the Urgency . Deficiency bill yesterday. Col. Cowles insisted on a quorum, and tellers were appointed. The House was in a noisy, ugly tern per all the afternoon. Two days were set apart for.the consideration of Pa cific Railroad measures. The Pacific Funding bill will be one of the meas ures considered. it was when ine ousmess naa pro ceeded under suspension of the rules down to the Labor Committee that the greatest excitement took place. The friends of the Education bill had relied . t upon tne iiiaoor committee to secure a day for the consideration of their bill along with measures reported from the committee. But the committee had been reinforced by those of its members who were recently in St. Louis and other points investigating laoor aimcuitie3, .wnicu memoers in creased the majority against the Edu cation bill. The House was asked therefore to consider on the 3d of June and continuously thereafter, not inter fering, with previous special orders, all labor measures reported from this committee. The original proposition was not so worded, but Mr. Randall's amendment securing this exclusion of the iJIair bill was accepted by O'Neill, who had charge for the Labor Com mittee. Mr. Wilhs and those who held the key to a secret arrangement supported tne .Labor proposition Ail is i o .1 T-il r t -ii umer irienas ot tne ciair oui were greatly annoyed, and Messrs. Cowles and Johnston turned their guns both on nanaan ana u-jNem. mere was great excitement on the floor before and during the vote. Col. Cowles and Mr. Johnston engaged in excited pri vate colloquy with the big Pennylva nian, remonstrating with him on his position. At another 'stage of the proceedinbrs the member from th fith District and Mr. Randall locked horns in the di?cussion, while Mr. Johnston and Mr. O'Neill had a bout. Finally the House granted by the necessary two-thirds vote the day sought to the committee. The understanding al luded to above is that the Labor Com mittee shall submit at one of the days devoted to the consideration of its' measures a resolution to set apart a day for the consideration of the Edu cation bill. It is only justice to Col. Cowles, as he has no way under the rules to get into the Record for the purpose, to say here that the apparent point made by Col. Morrison at his expense amounts to nothing when the Democratic plat form at Chicago is examined. What Morrison quotes in the Record was not uttered on tke floor, and was taken bodily out of its proper connection in the platform and made to do service foreign to the purpose for which it was framed. In the platform the pass age belongs to the plank relating to the public domain. Cowles was right in saying that the National Democratic platform favored general public edu cation. He did not say that it favored the Blair bill. Col. Cowles bore him self well in this debate. He says he did not expect to engage in it, but rather than have nothing said for North Carolina he interposed, having secured three minutes from Mr. Mor rison. He privately tackled Morrison this mornjng about putting into the Record what was not delivered on the floor, and then not getting m what the platform really contained on the sub ject of support of common schools. Col. Morrison said it didn't .-erve his fmrpose to put the latter in. The re ations between the two Colonels is very amicable, and the distinguished Illinoisan said to Col. Cowles a day or two since that the latter would proba bly be re-elected by a.largely increased majority, a fact which would gratify him (Col. Morrison) very highly. From a high authority near the House leaders I learn that it has been agreed that the Congress shall adjourn when the appropriation bills are all passed, and it is proposed to get them through the House jis fast as possible and send them to the Senate in time for an adjournment not later than July 1. It is said that the Ways and Means Committee will bring up the Tariff bill as soon as the Legislative, Judicial and Executive Appropriatfen bill is sent to the other House jtnat is, either the latter part of this or the first of next week. The friends of that measure say that it has not lost by the delay, but rather gained. I hear on the high authority alluded to in the beginning of this paragraph that if consideration of the Tariff bill shall not be completed when the last of the appropriation bills is passed, the Con gress will adjourn pending such con sideration and without final action on the measure. Gen. Cox was asked late this after noon : "How about your canvass for renominaton V "Well," was the re ply, "I never have any canvass. This session I have been so very busy here with committee and other work 1 have had no time to think a great deal about the matter. : But from all I hear my prospects are fine. Did you read my letter ? It was not written for publica tion." Gen. Cox said that there was a very benevolent project to have him taken care of by the President in some snug foreign appointment, but that it was unnecessary to formally deny that sttch a thing had ever been considered. Altogether, I thought that Gen. Cox was not much trepidated by reports from the Fourth District. By the way, when "O" Young, Ike's brother, was here sometweebs. ago, he met his old fellow-townsman, Hon. Henry G.Tur ner, of Ge6rgia, and. told him that he had an idea of running for Congress. Mr. Turner, with one of those sardonic smiles for which he is famous, replied : here with, rival certificates, you will see with what pleasure I shall award him the "seat." The distinguished Georgian is chairman of the Elections Uommittee. Mr. Reid to-day reported from the War Claims Committee a substitute for Mr. Johnston's bill providing an appropriation to pay for damages done by Federal troops to Jndson Female Colleere in June, 1865. The amount reported is $1,100. Col.

POSTSCRIPT MAY 19. J udg Fowle is here to-day. solicitor U. a. Allen is in the city visiting relatives. Judge Bennett has introduced a pe tition from the Faculty of the Univer sity asking for the establishment of experimental stations in aid of agri culture. A gentleman, who was in Salisbury last night, says that there was a report that Mr. Richmond M. Pearson, ac companied by two surgeons, had gone on to Virginia or Washington, and that there was trouble again brewing oetween Messrs. Fearson audMcAden. It was said that Pearson was bent on getting satisfaction from MeAden for the assault made on him in Raleigh. I cannot learn that Mr. Pearson is in this city, but it is thought he is either here or coming to consult with his brother-in-law, Mr. Calderon Carlisle. Capt. Nat Atkinson, of Asheville, is here in attendance upon the Viticul tural (or Grape-growers) Convention. tie says that Mr. Johnston will proba bly be renominated without much trouble. This is substantially what others have said, including Represen tative Johnston himself. 1 heard a prominent North Caroli nian say to-day that Judcre Bennett. in his opinion, would be renominated m the Wilmington-Charlotte District. This gentleman is kuown to have an exalted idea of Lieut. -Gov. Stedman's influence. Senator Vance has gone to his West era Carolina home for a few davs. Master Thomas L. J enkins, of Vance county, passed his final examination for entrance into the Naval Academy at Annapolis to-day. T ' A T- , . rtegister rxosecrans nas oeeu con firmed. The tariff debate will probably not open until alter June 1. Mr. Dibble's bill for a second Vice President was favorably reported in the House to-day. It ought to pass. It provides for a constitutional amend ment. The House Committee on Territories will report next week in favor of ad mitting the whole of Dakota as a State. The Republican Senate had a pretty little scheme by which they hoped some time to secure four Sena tors. The bill will not be acted upon by this Congress, at least not at this session. There may be a little fun to-morrow when the 'Appropriation Committee reports the Legislative, &c, bill with a clause providing a conditional ap propriation tor the Civil Service Com mission. It is subject to a point of order which will undoubtedly be made. The proviso requires that the rule limiting the age of applicants shall be abolished, and that a full list of those who pass examinations shall be sent up to the appointing officers. C. W. H.
