The Rev. Dr. Talmage. in his Thanksgiving sermon, said "the best thing Congress couid do with the $100, 000,000 surplus, which the Republicans have not stolen and the Democrats have Dot yet had a chance to steal, wou'd be to apply it in some way to the establishment of steamship lines to South America, and to dredging out their haroors so as to render them ac Kssible to commerce."

During his absence he made a flying visit to Albany, where he had the plasure of meeting with President elect, Cleveland. Mr. Strange was an earnest advocate of Mr. Cleveland's nomination for the Presidency at the National Convention and worked faith fully to secure his election after he was nominated, and that having been ac complisbed he had a strong desire to see the man for whom his labor and vote bad been given. Mr. Strange re turns with very pleasant memories of his short .interview with the President-elect. In the course of tho conversation President Cleveland stated that he desired to visit the South, and would do so be fore Ion j, if he could. The President spoke of the great importance to the country of the election, and stated it would probably give the Dem ocracy a lease ot power for many years.

Wingate should stop in the city, to arrest him, and also giving a descrip tion of the man. Yesterday morning a stranger arrived in the city" and regis tered at the Purcell House as "A. N. Dodd, Toronto, Canada," and he tallied so well with tho description given of Wingate that Capt. Brock caused him to be arrested last night, and immedi ately telegraphed toj Toronto of the fact and asked for instruction. Dodd also sent a telegram last night to which he received a reply this morning the contents of which are known only to himself. The charge upon which he was arrested was the embez ziement of $0,430 from the North Brit ish Investment Company. Dodd took his arrest quite composedly and rather made light of the affair, stating to the oflicars that it would be all right. Capt. Brock received a dispatch from the Chief of Police of Toronto this orenoon stating that Dcdu wa3 not the man wanted and, consequently, he was discharged. The Electoral College. Maj. Charles W. McClammy re turned this morning from Raleigh, where he had been in attendance upon the Electoral College of North Carolina, which assembled in the Senate cham ber of the capitol yesterday and cast its eleven votes for Grover Cleveland lor President, and for Thomas A. Hend ricks for Vice President. Major Mc Clammy had the honor of 'calling the College to order. Speeches were'made by nearly all the electors and ihe scene was impressive. The ballots for Pres ident and Vice President were of red and white North Carolina silk, wove in New Jersey, the birthplace of the President-elect. Upon one was printed "For President, Grover Cleveland, of New York;" while upon the other was printed "For Vice President, Thomas A. Hendricks, of Indiana." A'vote of each kind was sent to the President and Vice President-elect. The Raleigh Chronicle says of the electors: The Senate Chamber was filled with distinguished gentlemen at noon to witnesss the interesting ceremoney of casting the electoral votes ot the State for Cleveland and Hendricks; and there were ladies in the gallery. Among the spectators were: Mr. James S, Battle, Rocky Mount; Mr. John A. Barringer, Greensboro; Colonel Thomas M. Holt. Haw River; Dr. T. E. Skinner, Gea. R. S. Hoke, W. F, Green, Frank lin; Mr. P.

Battle, Mayor; Mr. King, member-eleet Irom Guilford, and a large number of others Chief Justice Smith administered the oath to every member ol the Electoral College. Maj. McClammy arose and made an exceedingly graceful speech, full ot congratulations and good feeling, and placed in nomination for President of the college Col. John N. Staples. Col. Staples made a happy address when he took the chair; and he appoint ed Messrs. Rowland and Gilliam Secre taries. - "Nominations for candidates for President and Vice President of the United States are now in order," said President StapTcs. Col. W. H. Kitchin arose and nomi nated for President the Honorable Gro ver Cleveland, of New York; and Col.

Bunn eloquently nomina ted the Honorable Thomas A, Hen dricks, of Indiana, for Vice-President, which was seconded by Mr. Justice.

Prospering. We arq clad to learn that the Wil raington Clinton & Warsaw telegraph line is doing, a good business? The ilne t has been opened but a short lime,' although it had been long needed by the enterprising busi ness men ef the prosperous town of Clintoarpnd its advantages have been used forthe material benefit and con venience of the people. It is hoped that a.'branch railroad from War saw to Clinton will soon be another source of advantage and profit to those people., i , c Worth looking After. A man giving his name as Cashman and who is engaged in lecturing -and selling a book on the diseases of horses and cattle, called at the City Hall ye3terday, and in the course of conver sation stated that he knew a man from tbis city named Thomas Hansley who ied in Wiscansin a year or two ago, leaving an estate valued at $165 000. He further stated that be found Hansley a poor man and loaned him some money, with which he went to Pennsylvania aud made S80.000 in the course of two or three days, and divi ded the profits with Cashncan, giving the latter $40 000 for the use of the money. As Hansley formerly resid d in this city and has a wife now living in Smithville, besides other relatives here and in this vicinity, such a revela tion caused considerable excitement and a good deal of speculation, but there is so much of uncertainity in the matter that we do not believe it wonld bo wise to place much reliance upon any imaginary inheritance.
