VOL XII. WILMINGTON, N. C. TUESDAY; OCTOBER 2.3,
A very moderate estimate now is
for 60,000 Democratic plurality in
New York and 15,000 in Brooklyn.
This will carry Cleveland and Hill
tt the Harlem river 75,000 votes
ahead, figures which will be found
by the Republicans to be simply in
Vincible. ' Gentlemen, Indiana is safe, unless
all of the signs of the times are de
ceptive. The latest from the Hoos
ier State says that the Rads are get
ting mad and throwing mud instead
of stones. This is a good fgri. Tlie
Ke W.York Herald correspondent at
Indianapolis tells of this and he says
that Indiana is sure for the Demo
crats. -r
'We are coming, Father Abraham,
forty thousand strong. That is about
what the Illinois Democrats are say
ing now. They declare positively
that they will carry the State for
Cleveland and Palmer. They have
been orra still hunt -and they say
that they have discovered such a
radical change in front as justifie
them in claiming the State. Stranger
things than this have happened.
.
And now for little New Hamp
shire. Even in the remote Granite
State Our x Democratic friends are
confident even jubilant. The issue
there is between two railroad fac
tions and prohibitionists and anti
prohibitionists. The tariff is an is
sue, too, but not so great an issue as
the other questions. The big fight
is for the Legislature which will
elect two United States Senators.
Blaine's plurality was only about
4,000 and the Democrats say they
expect to "wipe this out and to carry
the Legislature also.
Judge Thurman was accorded a
decidedly Romanesque reception at
Brazil, Ind., last week. It is the
prettiest thing we have read of dur
ing the entire campaign. We copy
frpiii the Herald'.
Ten counties joined ' with Clay
county, in which Brazil, is situated,
in order to make the old Judge's
visit something for him to remem
ber." They came out thirty-five
thousand strong. He was met at the
depot by the most picturesque cav
alcade seen in Indiana during the
present extraordinary campaign.
First came an escort of sixty
young ladies on norseback dressed
in green costumes and white hats.
Next came fifty niore .equestriennes
wearing red bandanna dresses with
headdresses to match. Then came
thirty floats, each drawn by four
horses, the thirty containing 1,000
maidens. The occubants of each
float were dressed differently some
wore red, white and blue, and others
were in bandanna overskirts, with
blue and white shoulder girdles
and caps, such are worn by French
bonnes. Again others were in pure
white with metal crowns and tulle
veils. Each float had its "Queen"
in front, dressed in nun's veiling, and
carrying some emblem or device ex
pressing confidence in Cleveland
and Thurman. Everygirl carried
a bandanna handkerchief, and as
they passed the house of Mr. Hos
kins, whose gnestThurraan was, and
from whose balcony, int company
with Governor Gray, he reviewed
the procession, all the blooming
damsels waved the old Roman's
colors and threw thousands of kisses
at him as they passed by.
Hundreds of other peculiar fea
tures -ere in the possession, which
contained seven thousand persons
and seven hundred horses. It was
the grandest and most unique pro
cession Thurman has seen in this
State.
SUE IS "GItATKFUL."

An Oreliertra la Needed.-
. Rev. F. W. E. PeBChau tells us
that a young gentleman of his ac
quaintance, who is an excellent vio
linist has signified his willingness
to come to this city and organize an
orchestra here if he can be support
ed sufficiently. As an orchestra is
something which is really very much
needed here and as the gentleman
referred to is row the leader of one'
at his present place of residence and
a fine performer on that grandest of
all instruments, the violin, we make
this' public announcemeqt in the
hope that enough violin pupils may
be secured to induce him to come
to this city. Mr. Peschau will . be
pleased to furnish any other infor
mationonthe subject.
The Fire at Cronly.
Our report yesterday of the fire at
Cronly was about all that there was
to be gleaned. The fibre factory, &s
stated by us, was completely de
stroyed, as well as all of the stock
and machinery contained therein.
Owing to the fact that the win4 was
from the East the fire was confined
to this building. The railroad depot
was seriously threatened. It" was on
fire at one time but by hard work it
was saved. Mr. Wm. Latimer, the
President of the Company, is in New
York but the Manager, Mr. Wilkes'
Morris,' was on the ground. Jt
understood that everything lost is
covered by inisu,r.ainae and that the
company will rebuild at once on a
larger scale and with new and im
proved machinery.
. Pine Straw Bagging. ,
We find the foliqwjqg in f the
NewYorkerqfcf of yesterday's date,
fs telegraphed to that paper from
flharleston on Sunday;
Ampng the cotton received here
yesterday was one lot of fifteen bales
from Cheraw, &. O., which was cov
ered In bagging made from pine
straw. The entire lot was quickly
disposed of and readily accepted by
the exporters. This practically
solves the bagging puzzle and puts
a quietus on the hopes of the jute
bagging trust. The fifteen bales re
ceived yesterday were shipped to
Liverpool.
The adaptability of the bagging
tn thft coverinsr of cotton will re
sult in a wonderful revolution in the
South. It is made of the needles 6r
leaves of the pine found iaouthern
forests. These needles can -be' made
into cotton covering at a cost which
is bound to run jute bagging out of
the United States. The green need
les, it is clai!u,edt yield oii eiio'ugh
to pay the ejntire cost bt t'fieir treat
Men$; It is 'rdb;abW that by next
spring ".Veir onev hiind red factories
for' the fuahufacture of, pine, straw
bagging nnd niatting; will be in
operation between Raleigh, .N. C.t
and New Orleans. I "
Mr. D. O'Hanlon, of the Black
River lection, is in the city to-day.
Mr. O'Hanlon has a contract on the
extension of the a F. & Y. V. R. R.
to this city and he tells us that the
work is progressing finely.
Young ladies, on the eve of . mar
riage, now give "spinster dinners,"
at which female friends only " are
entertained. 4 They are allowed to
talk of every thing, and never fail
to mention the numerous curative
benefits of Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup
that' cures all coughs, colds, bron
chitis, croup and sore throat.
The Ball Last Night. ' .-
The ball given by the Lalla Rookh
Pleasure Club last night nt the Ger
mania Hall was a grand success and
everybody had a good time. There
was a large crowd of ladies and gen
tlemen present. The Italian harpers
furnished . music for the dancing
which was kept up until 3 o'clock
this morning. The committee de
serve much praise for the manner
in which everything was conducted.
Old Sampson, God Bless Her !
. A gentleman who was present at
the Democratic gathering at Clin
ton on Friday last says that it was
probably the most noted political
gathering in the history of thecoun
ty. It is estimated that there were
3,500 persons present. Judge Fowle
.made a splendid impression ajid the
enthusiasm was unbounded.. Mr.
Joseph us Dan'els and Mr. Thos. W.
Strange spoke at night, when there
was a big torchlight parade and
they both made splendid speeches.
It is said that votes will be polled in
Sampson this year that were never
brought out before and the Demo
crats there talk confidently of 1,000
majority. "" v . ' .
Mack Held for Trial.
Frank L. Mack, commonly called
Lomack, the colored desperado who
shot Officer Turlington, was in court
before the Mayor to-day. The wit
nesses against him.in his depreda
tions atClarkton, and the parties who
suffered at his hands there, arrived
here this morning on the C. C. R. R
and were on hand to identify their
goods. A large assortment of these
were produced in court.
Hays Swindell,a colored merchant
of Clarkton, testified that his store
was broken open on Friday morn
ing, the 11th of October, and was
robbed of a lot of calico, knives,
cigars, pocketbooks and jewelry.
He got on the track of Frank L.
Mack, who was making his way to
Wilmington. Hays identified the.
articles in Court this morning as be
ing his property.
Mr. R.B. Cromartie, a clerk in Mr,
Jno. H. Clark's store at Clarkton'
testified that when he went down on
the mofning of the 11th inst. he
found the store open an was after
wards informed by a man by the
name of Melton Smith that he saw
a man who answered to Maok's de
scription . going towards Wilming
ton, carrying a large bundle with
him, Mr. Comartie identified some
of the articles as being the property
of Mr. Clark.
Officer Sheehan testified' that af
ter he and Officer Turlington had
arrested Mack, he got a warrant and
went over to Member , Hankinsi
house and searched her rooms and
founl in. her trunk the articles iden
tified as above.
Member llankins testified that
Mack brought the things to her
house about three W;eeks before he
was arrested and asked her if she
woqldjaH do. his washing, which she
did and received a piece of calico for
her pay, as Mack said he was busted.
The Mayor asked Mack if he want
ed to make any statement. Mack
said he did not. The Mayor then !
asked him where htgot these things
and he stated that he bought them
from different merchants in the city.
He also said that he bought a coat
and vest from Mr. A. David and a
pair of pants from a second-hani
clothing store in the city.
Mayor Fowler has notified the
sheriff of Clarktop that Mack will
be held subject to his order. Mack.
