FEBRUARY No end, as yert to the Senatorial dead lock in th -West Virginia Leg islature. 'Oirtbe last ballot, on Sat- :; urday, Keima liad 39 and Gofif-39, T ivith four scattering votes. There were deaths in New York last veek,80 of which were from violence. Trie estimated population , on satiiruay was 1,002,300 aiiu iu death rate per thousand was 26.22. The New York Herald Is now pub lished simultaneously every morn ing in New York, London and Purls. The first London issue : ap rtAOMri I'Pwfpninv uml it . took the hv. ctnrm.-'Great the lieiatd and great is James Gordon Bennett. rm 1,1 lilt wunu iir ucvci rr:c a duplicate of either.

The said brother, there- j noon challenged the Grown Prince j but gave him the alternative of ; death by his own hand, of which he j availed himself. The champion scoundrel is a resi dent of the happy and prosperous West and what should, be done with him is a question that may some day puzzle Beelzebub himself. Read this from Chicago: Mrs. Emma L. Foehrenger was granted a decree of divorce to-day. It appears from the evidence that her husband not only indulged in little eccentricities like chasing his wife around with a butcher knife, but a half hour after the wife's last babe was born he kicked the babe aeross the room, the sick mother jumping from the bed to pick it up. The shock almost killed her. This act of brutality was witnessed by the nurse. There are still various and con flicting rumors as to Harrison's Cab inet. ' ; But little seems to be posi tively settled. Moneymaker, it is now said, is to be Secretary of the Navy, and not Postmaster General.. Jno. F. Swift, of California, it is re ported, will be Secretary of the In terior. Tnere is a hitch somewhere about the principal places. ; It has been reported that Allison would not accept the Treasury portfolio and that in this case Blaine would not be Secretary of State, after all, but the Herald has positive infor mation, direct from Gen. Harrison, to the effect that nothing whatever has yet been heard from Senator Allison. .. A bill has been introduced in the Senate to make the legal rate of in terest 6 per cent. The rate is now 6 per cent, but 8 per cent, may be chnrsred on special contract, in writing. It is this last, we presume, that the bill is aimed at. If so, it is a hurtful and foolish bill and should be done to the death. To make it a law will be to deal a serious' blow at commercial interests at this time and the sooner this fact is realized the better for all concerned. As it s, even at 8 per cent., it is some times a very difficult matter to get money, even with the best of secur itv. At all events, monev does not go begging, in this community, at 8 pe cent., and if a reduction of one fourth is to be made then there will be trouble ahead. Best let it alone, gentlemen. . No preparation could have made such a reputation as Salvation Oil has (in so short a time) without in trinsic merit of the highest order. It kills pain!

Crafts would be present at the prayer and experience meeting at the Seaman's Bethel last Saturday night, and it was so announced in the press, but some time during that day Rev. P. H. Hoge received! a telegram from Mr. Grafts stating that he could not reach here in time to take part in the exercises at the Bethel. In consequence of this fact the usual services were held by our citizens.- There was a good attend ance and the exercises were deeply interesting. The choir of Brooklyn Baptist Church furnished the music for the occasion. New Music. Among the good things that have come along with .the new year are the following choice musical publi cations: "Pleasures of Life,"Waltzes for piano,- by Ware, (50 ctsl): "As the Bark Foateth on," a sweet song in waltz time, by Gross, C30 cts.); "Visions of Home," variations for piano, by Dunlap, (40 cts.); "Sing to me, Mother" a choice song by Dow, (35 cts.); and a rare song for bass or baritone voice, entitled The Old Grenadier' by Mackenzie, (40 cts.)

TJCnnds Bros , druggists V 1 ' ' Frauk Mayo, There will be a fine audience at : the Opera House to-night to greet Frank Mayo in his dramatization of one of Dumas', best works. It is a spirited piece, full of life and action, jand with many thrilling scenes and dramatic incidents. The indications now are that the audience will be P)ay tomorrow niSht in -Nor- j deck'' ; . The Fire This Morning. ; The alarm of tire this morning a i j 2 o'clock was caused by the destrucv rthm of three small frame dwellings ! on McRaejiIley, between Nixon and Swann streets. They were occupied j by Lucy Smith, Andrew Halsey and Robert Halsey, all colored, who also owned the property; The first was insured with Messrs. Smith and 1 Boatwright for $125, the second with I I same firm for $150 and the third with Messrs. Atkinson & Mannins ... . ' i. for 4125. : They saved, nearly, all ofi nejr effects Personal. Canaday was in the city Col. W. P to dav. Capt. John W. Harper' is on a business visit to Norfolk. We were pleased to receive a visit to-day from Mr. Lee Rosenthal, rep-i resenting the well known clothing house of Goodman Bros.,- Philadel phia, who is here in the interests of his firm. The claim of Mr. R. M Croom, of se'at in the R. C. John- Pender county, to the lower house held by Mr. son, has been definitely rejectedand Mr. Johnson's title confirmed. The committee, Democrats and Repub lieans alike, reported unanimously in Mr. Johnson's favor. Postponement: Owing to the Frank Mayo's troupe playing at the Opera House to night and to-morrow night, it has been thought advisable to postpone the meeting of the Citizen's Association from to-night to Wednesday, night. at 8 p. rn. It has als been suggest ed that it might be well to have the meeting in the Opera House, instead of the Mayor's office, as a great deal of enthusiasm is being manifested in the movement and the meeting bids fair to be a large one. Due notice will be given if it is decided to have it in the Opera House instead of the Mayor's office. Rev. Wilbur F. Crafts. This distinguished divine and prominent worker in the "Sunday Rest" movement, arrived in the city late last Saturday night. He preach ed to a large and delighted congre gation, at the First Presbyterian Church, yesterday morning on "the only Defensible Ground of Sabbath Reform," and addressed our citizens generally at the Opera House yes terday afternoon on "the National Sunday . Rest .Movement." All the available space in the Opera -House was th rouged with an interested oudienoe, who listened with pro-found-attention to the words of deep piety and wisdom that fell from the lips of the distinguised speaker. At night he preached to a large congregation at the First Baptist Church, with "Sunday Laws and Liberty" as his subject. Carolina Keacti. There will be more than one pleas ant surprise in store for those - who go down to the sea at Carolina Beach Much work has been done there during the Winter and many Improvements have been made, with more to come. The route has been made shorter, about a mile, it is said. ' The new pier will be at? some distance this side of Gander Hall, where the camp meetings are usual ly'beld, and the passage of the lowe narrow channel will be avoided. The boats when they turn from the regu lar channel of the river willhereafter make direct for the pier, without any. more turns. The ride on the river is thus shortened and . the ride by , rail is prolonged. Two boats will run regularly between the' city and the pier and the schedule will probably be a fitst one. At the Beach there are also many improve ments . The hotel buUdinsr is to be thrown into a large restaurant and fiftv fottaies ar being erected for the aecommodft - tion of guests.. The Sylvan Grove no w belongs to th Is compauy, where - as last season she was under char- ;ter. Thre will he lively times at ING HOUSE X IN WI LMING i Carolina Beach next. Summer.
