Mr. Morrison's resolution, though dead, yet speaketh. The Home Club is denounced bit terly by the other Knights of Labor for the alleged plot to assassinate Mr. Powderly, the great labor leader. The Irish Nationalists in the British House of Commons have resolved not to pursue a course of obstruction against the new Tory government. The French statesman Jules Simon says that a conservative republic is the only stable government for the Frenchmen. He is probably right. The Alexandria convention having adjourned without making a Congres sional nomination, the committee in that district has called another to meet at Culpeper. - The dogged determination of the New York anarchists, even in the face of death and life imprisonment, con vinces many that they -have resolved to die rather than desist. The old postmaster, Wilson, at Sa vannah holds out against his succes sor, Mr. George W. Lamar. The for mer says that he has done nothing wrong and that the President has no authority to remove him. Prince Alexander of Bulgaria, re ceived a great ovation on his return. English dispatches seem to throw doubt on the wisdom Qf the return, but there can be no doubt of his hero ism and sense of duty. Whatever the result, his course was wise. We heartily second the proposition have all the powder and other explo sives made far from any center of population and industry. The Wash ington Star goes so far as to propose that these things shall all be manufac tured m the alkali desert of the ex treme West.' The Russians have temporarily at least lost their hold on Bulgaria. The new cabinet in that country is strongly anti-Russian. The neighboring States, Servia and Roumania, have been con verted by Russia's action from enemies into friends of the Bulgarians. . Rus sia occasionally overdoes things, but she comes up smiling for a new trial on the next day. - The first female master workman of the Knights of Labor has just been appointed in District No".. 24, Chicago. Mrs. Elizabeth Rodgers is the wife of George Rodgers, a prominent labor agitator. ' Mrs. Rodgers lis thirty-nine years of age and is now the mother of eleven children, eight of whom are live. She has been a supreme judge in the order and has gained ability by her rulings, which are quoted all over the country. Mrs. Rogers is some what conservative; that is to say, she is strongly antagonistic to the anar chists, although she has reinstated the expelled . lodged. The T country .will watch her career.

',) "J" - - . V." .. I The earthquake of Tuesday night appears to have been one. of the most extensive subterranean disturbances ever known in the United States. Not less than twenty-two States were af fected by it. All sort!; of vp6opIe; in all sorts of places; were shaken up and terrified. To many; it was the first - earthquake ekperiencei; giving them a sense of sickness or vertigo Fortunatelv in but a small section of the vast expanse of territory shaken by the unwelcome visitant was there: any serious damage done. The pitiable and engrossing narra tive is that which comes from Charles ton, and tells of the destruction of a large portion of the city, the loss of from thirty to forty lives, the maiming of over one hundred persons, and the obliteration of from $8,000,000 to $10, 000,000 worth of property. More than half of the buildings in the city will have to be rebuilt. There was no tidal wave, and consequently no dam age to shipping. Elsewhere the earthquake was no more than violent enough to topple chimneys, cause fissures in walls, ring bells, move furniture, rattle crockery and throw many communities into a panic. The scenes of alarm and ter ror were such as can result from noth ing less than a mysterious and dread ful convulsion of nature. Whole com munities spent the night in a horrible fear that each shock might be suc ceeded by another that would bring to them sudden and violent deaths and the telegraphic reports told of thou sands of men and women unnerved with dread and frantically calling up on the aid of a Supreme Power. Let us hope that we may not experience another such a calamity. As for the sufferers at Charleston, our profound sympathy goes out to her afflicted and distressed people. MR. BLAINE FATIGUES THE KNIGHTS OP LABOR. We thought the other day when Mr. Blaine spoke of all the planks in the platform of the Knights of Labor as "side issues" and said that protection was the only thing to benefit the workingmen and they had failed to see it, that he was putting his foot in to it. Ralph Beaumont, chairman of the Congressional Legislative Com mittee of the Knights, was their prom inent speaker at their meeting at Peak's Island, Maine, last Monday. Mr. Beaumont quotes Blaine as say ing that he had no new remedy to offer for existing labor troubles. "What an acknowledgment for a statesman of thirty years' experience to make," remarked the labor orator. "It is a confession of perfect imbecilty. He has no new ideas. He has what he called an old nostrum one that has been hundreds of times offered to the laboring men and women of the country, one that has been hurled at them from hundreds of platforms, the old nostrum of protection. For twenty-five years," said Mr. Beaumont with great effectiveness, "fdr twenty five years we have had this protection Mr. Blaine offers us, and we have made more millionaires and more pau pers under that system than were ever made in a civilized country on the earth in the same time before." It seems that the "protected" are a long time finding out the protections generously offered to them. Such philanthropists as Mr. Blame should be duly recognized. The country is bound to have an international episode. As soon as Cutting got out of the way, Sedgwick got in. It seems that . he had a very lively time at an entertainment given in his honor by the gilded youth of Mexico. But all stories that he was mistreated by them are discredited. He himself denies that he was. Elsewhere we reprint an extract from Prof. John Fiske's article in the Atlantic Monthly on American Finance in 17S0. It is interesting, as most that he writes is, but, according to our re collection of the origin of our cur rency, inaccurate in ascribing too much praise to Gouveneur Morris. Jefferson probably, adopted the French decimal system, as he states in his Autobiography. Mr. Fiske is the writer whose errors with regard to ed ucation in North Carolina during Co lonial times were exposed by Mr. Daniel R. Goodloe some time ago. The unfortunate disaster at Charles ton is very justly regarded as the most profoundly impressive physical event of our times. It is the first time an earthquake has overthrown a largei part of a city and killed a number of people in any Atlantic city on this continent. This is one catastrophe how many more catastrophes will fol low no man may predict. But it is best for the wise to comfort the thoughtless, the strong to stay the weak, , and for everybody to resolve not to be panic-stricken. All the de terminations of the affairs of men are with God. Let Him be trusted even in the shadow of calamities greater than any that have been borne by our people acquainted though they be with grief in all the powers of war, pestilence, famine and the inflictions of the carpet-bagger. The suffering people of Charleston have our sympa thies and the sympathies of Americans of every State and section. Offers of assistance have been made, and it is evident that the efforts of all generous persons should be turned to the allevia tion of such of the ills of the calamity as money and other supplies f will suffice for.

THE GOLDSBORO ME S 1, SIR RED VERS BULLERr - Sir Redvers Buller is disposed to deny the reports- of his intentions in Ireland, ' In an interview at Dublin before setting out for Tralce, the com missioner extraordinary to Kerry said : "I wish to distinctly state that I have not accepted a dragooning mission; nor J shall I. assist in evictions. My task will be simply to repress moonlighters and insure the safety of life and property. I propose to effect this by means of flying patrols, who shall be able to communicate speedily with a regularly organized system of sup ports. I do not know whether my plan will prove a success, but I mean to do my duty." The following sketch of Sir Redvers Buller is published: Major-General Sir Redvers Buller is the principal member of what is known in England as the "Wolseley gang," and has seen almost all his service while acting un der orders of Great Britain's "only General." In fact he may be looked upon as Lord Wolseley' s principal lieutenant. Sir Redvers was born in 1839, entered the Sixtieth Rifles at the age of nineteen, and attained the rank of Colonel in 1879. He served success fully in China in 1860, with the Rel River expedition' in 1870, in the Ashantee war of 1875, in the Kaffir war of 1878, and in the Zulu war of 1879, where he greatly distingushed himself, and where his personal bra very obtained for him the much covet ed Victoria Cross. In the Egyptian campaign which terminated at Tel-el-Keber he acted as Chief of the Intelli gence Department, obtaining the or der of St. Michael and St. George for his services. His most recent cam paign has been the Nile expedition and Soudan war eighteen months ago, during which he acted as chief of Lord Wolseley's staff. Sir Redvers Buller married in 1S82 the sister of the present Marquis of Townsend, one of the most eccentric members of the British peerage, who during a period of several years used to prowl about the London streets causing the arrest of professional beg gars, whom they thereupon prosecuted in the police courts of the metropolis with the most relentless severity. Sir Redvers, who is an A. D. C. to the Queen, comes from an old Devonshire stock, possesses one of the finest es tates in his county, and a rent roll of about $100,000. He is not especially popular in the army, and although exceedingly upright and honorable and sometimes kind, his face has a peculiarly stern and forbidding ex pression. 0UE WASHINGTON LETTER THE SEDGWICK MEXICAN MISSION AND SCANDAL. Telephone Suit Against Deputy ' Commissioner Vance-The Bond Case. StafE Correspondence of the Messenger. Washington, Aug. 31. Special dis patches to a Chicago paper stated that at a ball or dinner given in his honor by the Jockey Club of the city of Mexico, the new envoy, Mr. A. G. Sedgwick, become intoxicated along with the crowd of young bloods in whose company he was, and disgraced himself and the country he represent ed by maudlin and riotous behavior in public places. No information has been received at the State Department respecting the affair, and the story is there doubted. Palliating reports are printed to-day. But the main feature of the first report is undoubtedly true, that Sedgwick was intoxicated. The corrected statement as given in this morning's World, special from Mexico, is as follows : "The Mexican Jockey Club gave a ball Friday night, to which Mr. Sedg wick was invited. He arrived about 10 o'clock and soon began to play bil liards. He conversed during the eve ning with Sebastian Camacho, a prom inent Mexican capitalist, and many other leading officials. At 1 o'clock all sat down to supper. Sedgwick did not dance, but with some others re mained at the table. At 5 in the morning he, in company with seven others, all well known Mexican so ciety men, left the Jockey Club room and went to the lturbide Hotel, Sedg wick's residence, which is directly in front of the Jockey Club. All were very hilarious. Sedgwick did not go his room, but with the others went into the second patio or yard and be gan to dance. Sedgwick avnd one other fell down. Five of them then took a common street cab, among whom was Sedgwick. The cab took its way to a gay part of the town. There are many rumors of what hap pened next, but it is alleged that Sedg wick failed to appear at an appoint ment he had with Gen, Diaz at 11 o'clock on Saturday morning. Gen. Diaz waited until. 12 o'clock." There are many rumor? about town, but from te facts it is certain that Sedgwick was neither drugged nor was there any foul play, but it seems to be the case where the altitude has played his trick on a stranger who was not accustomed to live 8,000 feet above the level of the sea. Sedgwick when interviewed, so con tinues the World special, said he took this opportunity to deny m strongest terms that he was insulted or mal treated by Mexicans or anybody else, but on the contrary' that he had a de lightful time at the-ball and remained there until a late hour. ... When asked about the reports that he was intoxicated and that he failed to keep an appointment he had with President Diaz, het answered that he did not come here accredited to Diaz, and wanted to know. where Diaz wait ed for him until 12 o'clock. . That was aJJ,ne would say on that subject. He added that if any? person : could be found who attended the ball and saw him in ' the condition he was said to have been in, at or after the ball, and would charge him with it, then he would deny, the", story. He said he came here to Tin vestigate the Cutting affair and was very busy attending to it, and he , believed that people were trying to make ia second Cutting out of him. j SENGER, MONDAY, ' 1 1 was learned to-day that Mr. Sedg wick stated to several persons that he did not kuow anything had happened after 3 oMock Saturday, morning,' and that he would deny, flatly the whole occurrence. It is also understood that the' Mexidan press will say little, if anything, non the subject. . . The 2V ationalpt Sunda v published the following. which is a literal transla tion: 4 ; "Mister7 Sedgwick he went to the ball atVltie Jockey Club on Friday night. He was very prudent and ani mated at the last hour. The last word of the Cutting case . Was pro nounced in the yard of the Jockey Club at 6 a. m. on Saturday last; that is to say, yesterday. The most cordial merriment reigned at its being pro nounced. Who pronounced it, that is the secret. Mexico and the United States have become reconciled." The Herald's City of Mexico corres pondent says a meeting of Americans was held there yesterday, at which Consul General Porch asked approval of the following telegram he had sent to Secretary Bayard: "The envoy has disgraced himself. Demand his return. We feel humiliated and bow ed down with shame. Demand fur ther particulars and they will be fur nished. Suffice it to say that he was found dead drunk in a house of pros titution and is now the laughing stock of the Mexicans." The meeting when only a few were present indorsed the telegram, but when more people came in, everything was postponed until this evening. Mr. Porch made a strong effort to have his telegram sent last night, but his mo tion was voted down by a large ma jority. At the end of the meeting the Herald correspondent says, the feeling decidedly favored Mr. Sedgwick. The charges made against him would not be sustained, as they were based on rumor entirely, while on the other hand, gentlemen who had been with Mr. Sedgwick declared that he had done nothing ungentlemanly. The street talk here in Washington is that Sedgwick is a pretty fellow, and showed himself to yery ill advan tage during last winter in similar es capades which, however, fortunately for him, did not get into the papers. There is a good deal of comment on the matter. Undoubtedly Mr. Bay ard's enemies are making the most of the matter. No good is gained by keeping silent, however, and some of the newspapers, most friendly, have published the facts. In my judgment Sedgwick is a light weight, and ought not to be employed on such a mission. The State Department has received a copy of a circular issued by the Mex ican foreign office to the governors of the various Mexican States, providing for the exercise of greater care in trials of foreigners. The circular requests that when such arrests are made a de tailed report be sent to the Central Government, and that special care be taken that such arrests be made by virtue of a written warrant issued by competent authority. During Commissioner Montgomery's recent absence, Gen. R. B. Vance, Deputy Commissioner, acted as head of the Patent Office. A bill in equity has been filed by C. G. Beryman, for Henry G. Strong, of Chicago, against Robert B. Vance, aeting Commissioner of Patents, and Elisha Gray, for an injunction to re strain the issuing of a patent to the latter. Judge Hagner set the first Monday in September, at 12 o'clock, for a hearing. Two or three small clerical appoint ments' were made yesterday. Secretary Fairchild has issued a cir cular announcing that any three per cent, bonds up to the amount of $10, 000,000 presented for redemption on or before the 15th of September will be redeemed at the Treasury Depart ment. No other form of bond call will be issued during that period. If it is successful, and ten million m bonds are voluntarily presented for payment, this system will be followed; otherwise there will be a bond call in the regular way about, the middle of September. Senator Kenna and Representative Wilson, of West Virginia, say that the Democrats will carry every district in that State in the Congressional elec tions this fall. Gen. Joseph E. Johnston has return ed to the city from his tour of inspec tion of the subsidized railroads. He was sick while in St. Louis. Gen. Johnston is Commissioner of Rail ways. Mr. Ross, of Illinois, is to be Re corder of the Land Office. Several reductions have been made in that office, ' and one copyist has been dis missed. Treasurer Jordan returned to-day from Warm Springs, North Carolina. He is much improved in health. The last bond call was for only ten millions, but there will be other calls apaounting in all to $100,000,000. NORTH CAROLINA NOTES. Capt John B. Hussey, Chief of the Army Pensions division of the Treas ury Department,' will go to the White Sulphur Springs and Staunton, Va., for a. holiday of four or five days, starting on Wednesday evening. Ex-Congressman Jesse J. Yeates will leave for Asheville and a vaca tion on some day this week. Mrs. Yeates is in North Carolina. Some members of Dr. Hines' family have been quite ill for ten or twelve days, i An Alexander Democrat says that Lenney will get the vote of that, his own county; but there the mischief will stop. He predicts the triumphant election of Col. Cowles. The site of Piedmont Springs post-office-Burke county, is changed. Kinzel, Madison county, is a new postoffice, with Emily C. Robinson as postmistress; also Pee Dee, Anson county, Thomas P. Richardson, post master. C. W. H. Senator Frye is in a stew. Ex Gov. St. John, who is stumping Maine, is giving the Senator lively warming. Mr. Frve. in his opening speech, it will be remembered, branded the Pro hibition leaders as "unblushingly im pudent scoundrels" who are in the pay of the Democracy, and he added : "If 1 wanted to name them I could do so." Gov. St. John now challenges Mr. Frye to name the Prohibition leaders to whom he refers or.to stand branded himself as something very like what he alleges those leaders to be. Mr. Frye cannot afford to ignore the chal lenge?;f 7, " I Fruit Jabs". Fruit Jars : and Jelly Tumblers at Ftjchtleb & Kern's Get our prices. t SEPTEMBER 6 1 886 . FROM CHARLESTONS Matters Quieting Down But Help Needed. The latest from Charleston indicates no special change in the situation. There is said to be more confidence among the people. The sympathetic articles in the newspapers and offers of aid from different quarters, are great assurances to stricken people of Charleston. The mo3t urgent need now is for the early repair of the in jured buildings, so as to make them habitable. High winds and heavy rains would bring many shattered buildings to the ground, and injure hundreds of residences which have de fective roofs. Local authorities have their hands more than full. The President has authorized the Secretary of War to send to Charles ton one hundred tents, but more than that number are needed. Charleston, S. C, Sept. 4. The shock last night caused great alarm on account of the shattered condition of the nerves of the peonle. Those per sons who ventured back under their roofs hurried into the streets, which presented for a few moments as tragi cal an appearance as on Tuesday night, but little actual harm was done by the shock. T wo untenanted houses are reported . to have fallen, together with a part of the coping of the Charleston hotel. The vibratu n dur ing tljfe shock was not especially great, but the mourning and howling sound was sufficiently alarming. Gradually the people had come to the conviction that the shocks were at an end, and the disappointment was agonizing. The sensation to-day is the falling of showers of pebbles in the lower part of the city. The first fall was at 7:30 o'elock this morning, and the second about 11 o'clock. They appeared to fall in a slanting direction from the south to north. There are morsels of flint among them and all are plainly abraded and worn by the action of water. Some few have sharp fractures and have evidently been recently broken. The fact of the fall is vouch ed for by several trustworthy persons. a review of the field. One of the most reliable correspond ents of the Baltimore Sun, who was sent to . Charleston to look over the field, has telegraphed the following under date of Friday night : "The story of the Charleston earth quake of August 31, 1SS6, if told in all its details, would fill many columns of thrilling individual experiences, but stripped of these the tale may be fully told in very much less space. No earthquake of equal magnitude has ever before occurred m our country, and this one stopped just short of being one of those awful calamities in which whole cities are engulfed and thousands of lives are lost. A few inches, or at most a foot or two more of upheaval and Charleston must have been destroyed. The all absorbing thought in every man's mind now is the question, "Have we reached the end I" It would seem that the shocks which visited Charleston on the mem orable night of August 31 were not heralded. In the little town of Sum merville, on the South Carolina rail road, twenty-two miles from Charles ton, where many citizens have their residences during the warm weather, experiences of a similar sort were" felt on August 27th. Several times the undulations of the earth caused the tall pine trees to dance as though swayed bp a hurricane. The next day these tremors communicated them selves to Charleston. The earthquake of August 31 threw down every chim ney in Summerville, and the tremors at intervals eyer since have kept the people in a state of constant dread. None of the dwellings are occupied, and all the town people whites and blacks are living in hastily impro vised tents made of sheets and quilts stretched over poles. At night their camp-fires stretch for several miles through the pines, giving a pictur esque effect to the scene. The remark able features of the viritation in the Summerville locality are the presence of fissures or cracks in the earth and bubbling springs, which produces a dark blue mud mixed with water, as if from the alluvial depths of a rivei's bottom. The fear of a tidal wave has been ever present both in Charleston and in Summerville since the distur bance began, and happily so far the waters haye kept within their accus tomed boundaries. Ten miles of the South Carolina railroad, was rendered unfit for use by the upheaval. The track was moved literally the distance of three or four feet, and the ground under it was made perilous by fissures and quicksands. In many places what was before solid ground became a quagmire. Careful inquiry among the authori ties of the city places the total casual ties by the earthquake at 36. All things considered, this is a very small mortality, when it is remembered that some damage was done to nearly every house in town, and that three or four hundred are so very badly damaged that they will have to be nearly or quite1 rebuilt. A great deal of the preservation is due to the solidity of the buildings. Charleston has a pecu liar architecture, in which thick and durable walls play an important part. Very grave news is received from China. Advices from Ching-Too-Foo, the chief city of the province of Se chuen, state that the natives of the eastern part of that province and those of Northern Cochin China, have risen against the Christians and are massacreing them and destroying all their property. This active persecu tion is attributed to the imprudence of the English and the American mission aries. In Cochin China alone fifty Christians have been killed, their houses burned and their farms de stroyed. In Sechuen a general mas sacre of Christians is reported to be in progress, and they are killed wherever found. It is said that whole yillages occupied by Christians have been de stroyed, and that all lands occupied by professors of that faith are being devastated. The fipostolic vicar's res idence in Sechuen has been burned to the ground. Not a piece of furniture, nor a book, nor a paper was saved. The foreign -consuls barely escaped from Sechuen with" their HvesX No efforts had been made up to the latest reports to - quell the disorder, and so far as now is known it continues un suppressed. i : 5ew Advertisements.
