'I HE GLEANER GRAHAM N. C. July 2.1879 • ' J. ' j||- Wy' Jfp E. S. v rARKBR, Editor i tBE 6BBENBJICKIBSIN OHIO It will be renpmbered that the Green* 1 "*" Lr "lH f°Mf)B' i MI Ifc jMfflflffW 9 hiQ * home three weeks Qfo/ was not barmoni •iii*', and that a split was the result. The aeeeders met in teeoavenAiAi at Tuledb last week, and wwolved to make i.e uoiuination. Thir is regarded as nn that £wing ia to be supported liv them. But there were dissenters J regit he action q£ the body, aad they met and resolved to support tbe Green* l>sck ticket nominated at Columbus, al though they disapprove of tbe Platform. Peter Cooper wrote a letter to 'he con vention advising the Ohio Greenbackers to vote for Ewing, which was recicved yt ith appUnse. ; If tbe Greenbackers, In imything like a- body, support Ewing, his election will be certain, but. of this vie have greets doubt. The trouble is that Democrats permit their differences to affect their votes,-- while Republicans differing as widely and bitterly, on side issues, will vote for the party wheh the pinch comes.... This difference between tbe avrrage Democrats and Republicans it noticiable here with us, and perhaps everywhere. The Republican is much more loyal to his party than is the Dem« ucrat. J . , V CeNOBKSS. The business the extra session of Congress was called to'transact, has not jet been completed. The arjoy appro priation bill has become a law, and in Much shape as to very much curtail the jwweis of the President In its use to iutarfere with elections. While the Democrats hav.e not succeeded in repeal ing the objectional laws, by which troops might be used at elections, yet they have, so to speak, robbed it of much of its foroe. This appropriation was pass ed after two vetoes. The bill approprU ating the necessary money for the judi cial, executive -and legislative depart ments had attached to it a clause repeal ing the jurors test oath, in Federal Courts, and also the lain authorizing Federal Supervisors of elections, and special deputy, marshals for tbe pt-&ten> ded purpose of keeping the peace at eleo tions. This wsb vetoed. The appropri ation for tbe executive and legislative departments was then passed, and aps proVod'by the president; and a bill .was also providing for the judicial expenses and to this was added clauses repealing the jurors test oath, and providing the manner of drawing jurors in the Feder al courts, and also a clause virtually forbidding the appointment of special deputy marshals, aud supervisors ol elefe&ori&f Thfs was also vetoed ¥ ll > oD ° to WK* f" ishftU !d wq?*, 'T *° l i I 1" KO.rte.

Haying buakiesa two taro the court, in order to be to time w# left home last Saturday. (TbW we avoid- wft, be Wedtejmr credit.) Upon the train we found several members of the bar, alio-g Aug down. The duatwfca ahnoat stifling. It permeated every nook, oorner and crack; it r«ted UPP* and "ovejied everything. It was inhaled* until tbe noetrlla, mouth and ibroat were dry and l«lt that they needed dueling. Tbe eyes were full and grew red. It was warm, and when the wipdowsofthe coach were closed in a.vain eudeavor to keep out the dust, suffocation threatened. Whbthci to fcuduro tbe heat with closed windows, or the dust with open windows was dis cussed, and tested by experiment. Both were bad, and the passengers could "'no more niree as to whith was worst, than can CQgfgross and the President on npprojpiHtiop b|y. Whether some means of ventilation might not be invented, which would admit the air, and cxolnde •he dust was dhemsed, and while there waa 110 definite conclusion reached, it waa unquestionably the opinion of thos6 should be made? Toward* the latter part ol the trip (lie conductor waa rppealed to, to kiif w"hoW*msny more minutes of suffering had to be endnred, and a# the time grew tootly a few initiates there was a sign of Hie and cheerfulness hi axv licipation of open air notthickened with dust. There was another reason 100/ Wo Were all going to •'' Tnc Yarborocgii House As does pretty much Everybody who vis*- its Raleigh. Well, at halt past t*olve, we landed at this fame us hotel, and there stood as natnral as life, and we beHeve a little larger, Dr. Blacknall, its famous proprietor.. Ue spoke cordially to us, to some he gave judicial, and to tin others military titles, but we noticed tbcre was no plain Mr. in the crowd. We condemn, hi common with other people, this prac lice of bestowing ti'les, but, in common with other people, wc don't get inad,that is we don't cnt up about it, when they are bestowed upon us. The Dr. knows this, iu fact he kuows most the arts caN culated to please individually, and he wisely reasons that if he pleases every individual guest that stops at Lis house? ha will in time have established the kind est possible relations with protly much everybody. We hadn't more than drawu our face out of the smile that involuntarily caiue upon it, when we were greeted as Co]., before we were in tho hands oi one of the attentive waiters the Dr. pro vides for his Geuerals, and his Judges, and his Colonels, and carried ofi to a pleasant room to be gotten orit cf the dust heap iu which we lelt ourseli to be. Well, pretty soon, with the aid of lresh water, towels, tbe waiter uud bis clothes broom, we lelt brushed up, and rid of the dust. We thdn went down to din» ner, and we had a sure enough good din* ner. It was a little late for us, and we wero in consequence a little more than usually hungry, and, to use an old ex pression to convey a troth, Which is rare ly doue, we did justice to that diuuer. We understand, that such dinners are commoa at this hotel. The State Gov ernment boards here, that is tbe execu tive department, and when you stop here you know you are Hying like a Governor. In order that the Yarborough House din ners may uot be spoiled by hurry, the trains going each way on the iNorthCar olina Kail road atop for dinner the-very liberal period of three hours and a quar ter. Ta!*Sitfii*Hit6vkV k * * The docket tliia lime is, as we are in* formed lighter than usual. Judge Kerr was unable (o hold the courts iu the 6th district, and of course theie are no ap peals from that, and not so many per* haps as usual from the other districts. Hie moat important ease IVom oar dis trict, in fact the only one ef genera! im portance, is the contest over the trustee* ship of the North Carolina Ilailroad,, at present held by Rev. N. li. D. Wilson. The dircctofr it appeara elected Mid. J.' i'Grttoanf tcflife Wilson deeiinetto Vacate and tort* oter fire" of fsets in hiafcaad toMaj. G rait am.

GAIFIBLD AND KURD, During the debates iu tbe House last Friday there, was a pass between Gafield and Hurd. We give the telegrapic account,,which is, of course, condensed, but seems to be intelligibly given. It it as follows. Air. Garfield grouped together some of the leading points made during the session ' ou the Democratic side, particularly by I Mr. McLaue,of Maryland, and Mr. Carlis- j le, of Kentucky. These propositions were that there are no natioual election of members of Congress that Senators and Representatives are State officers, agents or ambassadors; that the United States have 110 authority to keep the peace within a State and have 110 peace to keep; that the United States is not a na tion but a confederacy ct States aud finally that States are sovereign. He declared that their propositions constituted a body ot doctrine more extreme than had ever been beard no fore except at the very rise ot secession. He believed that doctrine to bo erroneous and vicious, and proceeded to lay down'auif support by argument counter-propositions. At the conclusion of Mr. Garfield's, S>eccb, Mr.Hurd, of Oliio, took the jor and replied on behalt ot the Demo crats. lie recapitulated the poitus for which the Democratic party has been contending.He . reviewed the debate ot the past threo mouths, and declared tnat the arguments of the Democratic side had not been fairly met. It had beca said that the Democratic party bad backed but it was hot true. When they began the fight they did not expect to win in a day. In the forty-fitlh Congress they had said the army, their army, should not be used as a comitatus. In the forty-six lb Congress they had said it should not be used as a police force, and beloro the lorty-Mxtb Congress adjourned they should have takon from the statute book every law that proposed to use this creature of theirs at the polls to intiipi date American citizens in the exercise of their rights. (Applatise.) There had boon, he said, no surrender of the great principle that Congress can withold supplies as a meaus ot redressing grievances, and so long as the Demo cratic party was in the majority in the House it never would be surrendered. The preseut extra session, he said, had made up tho issue between the two partios. The Democrats had declared that the army should be kept from (he polla: 'that the test oath should be repealed, ajid that Ow jypu authority shdujd nqt intervene in the ejections iu the Saves. Upon these points, the Republicans took the Issue, and if with thi» issue the Republican party should be successful, it wtmld moan the end oi the Republic autl.the uplifting pl an E}&pire. Could there'be any gdoubt of . a contro versy like litis, and should civil liberty perish on Mown.threshold, at its own fireside? The past and luiure .protested against it; the hopes aud fears of the world protested against it; and what is of more value* the Democratic party with its majority of half a million of American people protested against it. (Applause) Mr. Reagan then replied to, Mr. Oar field's argument on .S'aic sovereignly, aud the,debate was continued by Messrs. Cox', Conger, McMabon aud Hawley. The committee then arose and reported the bill and it waa passed—yeas 88, nays 69. Oijly one Greeubacker voted, (Mr, Stevenson, of Illinois,) aud his vote was iu the affirmative.,, , ~.. , ( 'J Mir. Morrison, of Illinois, as a qoestiou or privilege, offered a joint resolution lor the final adjournment of Congress on June 30th at 4p. m„ A vole was Ityix and resulted yeaa nays 73, being a strict party vole, except that Mr. Ackteu, of Louisiana and all the Grecnbackers, ▼died to the negative. Adjourned until to-morrow. The Wilmington btmr tall* tie story well. We condense. Seme young men went to Wrigh§syil|e sound iu a way, and took with theui*negiO bay to dHve. They loft the vehicle, the driver In U holding the Itorae*. driver got very drank in suckawey(dqe't eey where he goi the liquor) and went.'o Bleep. Anv Other negro boy tied bnueh of Are crack ers to doge tail andaet fire to them. Dog ran near the horae; horse ran away, vtqick a tret and jmaahed the ropeway anemtmnstesg horse, end came, to the scene of the dfe*. aster, and the mi us. of vehicle. Under neath and in the midst reposed what they supposed to be the lifeless tens ot the ilnrer. With grief they nanled hi i» from the debris, when it was discovered that lie was not dead, but only slept. Ue had not aroused during all the excitement, and runaway. That negro bvj-' Utt only uuluumed thing about the rock a way. ; T.-. „ ..1 George W. Tlcid, a lawyer of Ashebo ro, died last week. JOHNS DAY AT OXFORD—Fiom Mr A. P. C.

The lines opened and* the orator of day, Judge Merritnon and the Grwnd Mastery Judge Cox, pass ed'into the chapel which wa» soon pack ed with visiting and resident Marfftis and citizens. Mr. A.

Grand Master Cox then made an-tradraes, - and after some splendid singing by the little orphans the audi* ence sat down to an open air dinner un der the bsßuiiful oaks that shade the asylum grounds. The hospi a tty of tbe GrauviUe people is too well known for us-to praise it. The quiet old town was radiant in its good humor ■ as host and the guests enjoyed a magnificent dinner and felt at home. At half pant 3 o'closk quite a number of gentlemen, au ongst them Mr. Ryan left for Raleigh. The exercisees had not closed, but with common consent fcft John's Day at Oxford was voted good for the orpluns, good for the Masons, g.iod for the State, good, for humanity and benevolence. — Thcwbserver. THE MURDKR OF MRS. HULL. —At last the author ct the atrocious murder ot Mrs. Hull, in her bed in the heart ot the city of New York has-beeu feretted out. Ho is a mulatto named Cbastine Cox, who lived near by and had been occa sionally employed by the dead woman. He fled to Boston aud there pawned some of the stolen jewelry- This led to his de tection and capture. He thereupon con tested the crime, and says that he bad no idea of killing the woman, his purpose being robbery, and that he tied her, and put the sheol in her mouth to prevent her giving the alarm. He did not know that she was dead until he beard it the uext day. He appears to talk quite freely, of the matter. , sr , 1 JOHN A. WILSON, died in Charlotte one week ago yesterday. For years he iu different capacities been connected with the North Carolina Railroad,, and. was the agent of its lessee at Charlotte When he died. Wc knew him well. He was gentle, kind, generous and noble. He was for years at Company Shops and was well known to many of our people, and not one who knew him will tail to feel a sincere sorrow at his death. We never knew a man more universally liked and we neVer knew one who more de served to be. * FOR RENT, LEASE OR SALE. I desire to rent my farnl, or lease it for ft term of years.
