The eagerness of the newpapcr pross
for news is wonderful. A senator, or dis
tinguished man in private life, can scarce
ly make a turn on the streets or in

to watch with whom they hold communi

see or know. -

that the Rev. Thos. Chaibonnel, a pro

There is a. blasphemous fellow named
Joe. E. Marsh, at Yaughau, Bosquejcoun
ty, Texas, who has recorded in the clerk's
office of the county And published to the
world, what he wickedly represents as a
covenant between God and himself, by
whieh God makes him His special agent
on, earth. It is neither new nor strange,
for men have been popping up all along
the stream of time claiming to be God's
vicegerent. They have done much mis
chief to the souls of simple minded men
and women, and this Texan will doubt
hi is have some running after him.
)i Thopeople of Stokes county inaugura
ter Judge Lynch's court last week and
put through two negro rapists. It is de
plorable that circumstances of such an
aggravating nature .will occur now and
then as to drive men to madness. But
trhocan bear to see a brutal assault, result
jug in the death of a young girl, as in this
case, and not resent it with fury. When
it shall come to be known that this high
crime js certain death to the offender, we
hall have less of it. Aud yet it is au as
tonishing fact that it has not been more
than two or three weeks since the negro
Tajlor was bung Nfor this crime near
Reidsville, in au adjoining county to
Btokes.
The Statesville A mcrican reports the
robbery of the dwelling of Rufus Redniau,
in Iredell co. The two young men who
did it making a. find of SlOOaaid to an
jold black woman on the premises, that
they intended to kill Redman, and waited
two hours after the robbery for his re
turn homo, but he did not come.
rThis incident, taken in connection with
the recent robbery of Mr. Thompson, in
Alexander County, certainly indicates
probable truth iu the story of Henry
Gwynn, colored, as published in the
Jxindmarlof the existence of a secret
oath-bound band iu Iredell, for the pur
pose of robbery.
A Disputed Honor, T :
Two simultaneous dispatches have been
received by Prof. Swift, of the Warner
Observatory at Rochester, New York, by
whjelj t appea"r8that another great comet
has been discovered. Prof. Sharpless, of
Ilaverford College, Pennsylvania, states
that L. T. Edwards saw it with the naked
fyie on jthe morning of June 23d, and Mr.
;EdgarL.Larkin, of New Windsor, 111.,
also reports seeing it, and that it is vast.
Jt seems probable that the tail is not less
than 15 in length while the head is as
Mt as .Jupiter. The new comet is lo-
TCAted n tbeponstellation of Auriga about
,8 degrees from Capella, and it is not im
provable that it may be the much
expected comet of 1812 which should ap
pear not far from that locality. As the
tvo riianntrliea wrn rua!til

ler simultaneously, there is some question
as ta whether th6 honor of discovery, and
.the Warner prize of $200, belong to Mr.
Edwards or Mr. Larkiu.

111. KEL.AT1UX3 BETWEEN Mil. TAVT in
GENERAL LEE.
In
a conversation with a newsnaner in-
tcrviewer a few days ago, Senator Ben Hill,
of Georgia, defended in most respects Mr!
Davis' "History of the War," and criticised
the policy of Gen. Joseph E. Johnston jn
the conduct of his Campaign from Dalton
to Atlanta. In regard to the rtnnrtt.A rfif.
ferences between Mr. Davis and Gen. Lee as
to the snrrender of the army, Mr. Hill says :
"I have read with a great deal of amuse
ment much of the stnff th ft fr. hao Knnn

Lee was on the stand I examined him
myself, and in great detail. When asked
about his holding Richmond, he Raid hp

with the South. He explained tht Hmntv

"Nine-tenths of the party in favor of

tell us that nine-tenths of the holy angels

many hard things about it, but none so
slanderous as this. As a representative
Republican, second to no man in work
for and devotion to its true interests. I
hereby declare thitt neither a fraction nor
tlje entire Lpubhcau committee is au-
thovized to speak for the party in this
matter. No convention of the party has
ever discussed the subject, and not even
a township meeting of the party has ever

Deau Sir: My opinion is that the
Republican executive committee has
neithcir the power uor the authority to
bind Republicans to vote for or against
prohibition. Republicans mid Democrats
voted for the prohibition bill regardless
of party in the Legislature, and will do
t ho same in the com in 2 election. And
now for the Republican executive com
mittee to issue a bull against prohibition.
thiukiug it can gain a temporary advan
tage by joining the devil against the
Democratic party, is a copartnership that
older heads would never have consented
to. Any attempt that the Republican
committee may make to prove the Dem
ocratic party a temperance party will be
a failure, as it has a national reputation
to the contrary, and no one in the coun
try will believe such glorious uews even
from the Republican committer. I fnr

As we anticipated, says the Charlotte
Observer, United States Commissioner
Davenport testified before the bribery
investigating committee at Albanv that
Mr. Garfield did not authorized him to
make any trade with Senator Strathan to
secure hH vote against Conkling in con
sideration for the United States marshal-
ship. But there remains no doubt iu the
miuds of thoso who read the interview
between Strathan and Davenport aud
Davenport's account of his conference
with Garfield that he knew what Daven
port was.doing in the premises and sanc
tioned it. Why was it uecessesary for
him to cousult Daveuport as to
the appointment of a United States
marshal iu New York ! Was it so
difficult to find some one to fill the Dosi-
tion that they had to ca around Washing
ton and New York to hunt uDaman will-
mg to accept it, when the truth is there
were hundreds of Republicans of average
competency too williug aud auxions to
serve their country in that way. No one
ever heard of an office of that kind iu these
days to go begging. The probabilites
are, and probabilities strengthened bv the
developments in the case, that they were

A Victim of the Bottle.
A well daessed little bov between

Lt. Cadwallader if there was a "large lady
in the lockup." It was his mother for
whom he was looking, who left her boarding-house
the day before in an advanred
state of intoxication, and had not since re
turned, I he Lieutenant told the boy that
his mother had been in the station that
night, but that-fche had paid her fine to
keep the magistrate from committing her
to jail. With his eyes bathed in tears the
boy then stated that the boarding-house
mistress had ordered himself and his Ri4trr
out of the house on account of the miscon
duct of the mother, who was in a perpetual
state of intoxication. He further said that
the family belonged t Philadelphia, and
that his father, a wealthy merchant, had
propensity to drink. She spent thousands

The Wisconsin prohibitionists propose
to accomplish their object by business
methods. ! A State prohibitory amend
ment association has been fanned with .i
capital ot 551 UO.UUU iu 100,000 shares of
$1 each, for the purpose of securing the
adoption of a constitutional amendment
pronibiting the sale and manufacture of
intoxicating liquors, and for procuring:
the enactment and enforcement of laws
carrying out the provisions of the amend
ment. Any one can become a member of
the association by subscribing to one or'
more shares of stock, and the hinds are to
be used in advancing temperance reform
by organization, moral suasion, the dis
tribution of temperance literature, lec
tures, etc.! The Texas prohibition asso-
vuiiiuu urge meir menus to raiiy ior a
struggle, but wish to keep the movement

I n our immediate neigborhood, onsrht cer-

w"ther there is a grain of foundation in

such charges as is brought in said article.
I be editor of the Democrat, if he1 had ta

or if he had only written for information,
could have easily learned that the article
as published in the New York lines, as

We do not wish to enter into a contro

desiring to know the truth as leznrds
