James Reilly, who has given exhi bitioDS as a snake charmer, died in ter rible agony in New York last week from the effects of a rattlesnake bite. A Maine Republican has just passed away at the ripe old age of 110 years. Some Republicans, says the Boston Post, had rather die than vote fo Blaine. Ex-Collector SimmoDS, of Boston, one ot Gen. Butler's most trusted lieu tenaants, was interviewed in New York, lie says he will cordially sup port Cleveland. The Rochester Union confidently be lieves that Cleveland and Hendricks will carry 22 States, haying 255 elector al vote?. These States are the Solid South and California, Indiana, New Jersey, New York, Ohio and Wiscon sin. In a letter acknowledging the con gratulations of a well-known" New York merchant.

WILMINGTON. N. C.V WEDNESDAY. JULY 23 QGen. Logan's letter of acceptance has been published. It butechoves Mr. Blaine's few remarks and is careful to steer clear of shoals and quicksand8 and all embarrassing subjects. Georce W. Grubb3 has been nomi nated for Con cress by the Republicans of the Fifth Indiana Congressional District, but we incline to the opinion that Indiana will hardly furnish any Republican year. Congressional grub this Statistics published in Berlin give 80,104 as the number of Germans who emigrated mostly to America, during he, first five months of the present year. This number is 709 less than the number for the coriespondmg per iod in 1883. For the same period in U2 the number was 102,324, and in 1881 it was 102,519. The estate of the late Archbishop Jame3 F. Wood, of Philadelphia, is valued at but $7,143. His will pro vided that his library and money de posited with him in truet should bo transferred to his successor, with the same power that the decedent held. It was also set out in the will that there wa3 no real or personal estate to de scend to his heirs or next of kin. We could state for the benefit ot Mr. Blaine that there is a lar;e force of his voters now engaged in this State in building railroads and upon other works of internal improvement, but, unfortunatelWDy the terms of their contract, andlhe interpretation of our laws, they will not be permitted to re turn home to vote. ' The Convention of Independent Re publicans, which met in New York ye3terday, was largely attended and the delegates were all representative men. An organization wa3 effected and an adjournment was had nntil to-day. There is but little doubt that Cleveland and Hendricks will be endorsed. Edward Kearney, a prominent Tammany sachem, says: "I am' in favor of endorsing Cleveland and iHendricks at once." Thomas Dunlap, another Tammany sachem, says: "The ticket is in the field and we will have to support it. I think that the sooner we ratify it the better for the party and the organization." Jacob F. Schoelkopf, the wealthiest German manufacturer in Buffalo, N. Y., has declared for Cleveland. Mr. Schoelkopf is a thorough Protectionist but he believes Cleveland to be able and honest, and is for him out and out. It is conceded that a hirge majority of the German leaders of Buffalo will support Cleveland. Another Radical rose has fallen to the ground. Edward McCarthy, of New Haven, who wrote to Mr, Blaine and, claiming to be a Democrat, announced his intention of supporting the Republi can ticket and to whom Mr. Blaine re sponded with a regret that he was not yet abie to discharge the little debt of gratitude, turns out to b a Republican of several years standing. He was formerly a Democrat but became dis gruntled at not having received a nomination to which he aspired, and which was given to a better man, and has for three elections past voted full Republican tickets. He is a"Deuiocrat" of theTyreYorke School. The Blaineites will please trot out another Democratic bolter to take the place of this lone fisherman just as soon as they can find him. LOCAL NEWS.
