Mr. j W. J. Brown has been -appointed sawyer and superintendent of the saw mill of the W., t. & E. C. R. IL, located 22 miles from the city, tance but .wait to nick un that ot some one else. We look u JK u the Senate as really the palladium of our liberties. We caunot seo-how ajleptiblican form if government can be successfully conductel with but one legislative house. Examples to this effect are numerous and one need not go far to fiiid them. liut for the present Senate the infamous Jodge Force bill, with its bayonets at the polls and Its arbitrary domiciliary visit?, would ere this have been' signed by the President and would now be a law. In the. Senate alone lies the h&pe of the jonntry to defeat this bill. It is the only barrier that now stauds between the rights and liber ties of the people of the South, be tween their social, financial and ma terial prosperity on the one hand and anarchy, distress and bloodshed on the other. It may fail us, it is true, and if It does, then all hope is gone. But it did not fail us years agq when the attempt was made to enact another force bill. It was the Senate then that saved us from an evil no less threatening in its aspects than is that which now hangs sus pended over our heads. The U. S. Senate is, or ought to be, a grave,. dignified and delibera tive body, able to hold in check the mad fanaticism and reckless extiav agance of; the lower house. It is the balance wheel of onr political insti tutions." That It does not always corne up. to our expectations is not the fault of the Senate itself, as a deliberative house, but of its mem hers. It is not so much a forum for the delivery of pretty, pertinent and eloquent speeches as it is for calm and deliberate consideration of pub lic questions. There Is . neither a Clay, nor a Webster, nor a Calhoun In It to-day, Jt i true, but there are men there equally as wise if not as eloquent Morgan, of Alabama:Qray,' of Delaware; Voorhees, of Indiana; Carjisle, of Kentucky; George, of Mississippi; Vest, of Missouri; Mc pherson, of New Jersey, and our own Ransom and Vance are perhaps in no ways the inf?riors in statecraft of any of their long line of illustrious predecessors. Neither Calhoun; Clay or Webster had ever to fight against such great odds and to contend with such opposition as hat fallen to the lot of those upon whom. their robes have fallen in these latter days, and when the his tory of. these troublous times is re corded in future ages the palm of true, patriotic statesmanship will not alone be accorded to the giants of the ante-bellum days. But the 8enate is safe and we think it will stand, unless, 'indeed, such abuses shall creep therein as will cause a popular demand for a change. And even then there must necessarily be two legislative houses. There was a right lU-ely little split In the Republican party at Raleigh on Toeeday. . The participants were J. C. L. Harris, familiarly known as 'Loge", and John B. Eaves, Chair man of the Republican State Execu tlve Commute, apd the recently kicked-out revenue cojlector in the West.

The Goldsboro Dispatch says: The officers who visited the encampment this year seem to'think it was more successful from a military point of view than it has been inast years. The men learned more and worked harder, and there was not" so much rowdy ish "fun." But the fellows who went for the fun of it seem to find fanltand "don't want any more in theirs." Lieutenant J. R.

He ex amined some other witnesses to day and evidence was found strengthen ing that already adduced, j On his o rh confession Gaston can hung as he admitted that he is the man who shot at Mr. L'apps, the mail carrier; ne says, however, mat mis was done because Mr. Capps first shot at him, which is not true. It is also proven that Gaston was saen loitering near the second tollhouse on the evening of , the murder aud that he was also seen near the Min eral Spring, by Ou her a long frojit with high- Oh, Horrors ! - She was a daisy as she tripped the hotel with a sailor's hut head, a standing collar and necktie, a shirt front (only a we presume), sparkling studs, a ! cutaway coat and heeled shoes. It only needed the well," the divided skirt to make her a beautiful little dudelet of the mas culine persuasion. A look of utter dismay swept over the faces of the crowd in front of the house and Jpe, remembering a recent experience, completely collapsed. There; was an adjournment to the rear and j a consultation held over a Ioag, (high, black walnut counter. There Was a national protest at this phase of; a new force1 bill. The boys swore they they Avould'nt stand it, because, well, because,- if the girls took their All Bight Now. 1 The (steamer Sylvan Grove will resumej her trips on the river to morrow. The injury sustained by her recently has been repaired and her machinery is now as good and staunch as ever. The work on the stea mpipe was done by Mr. Adolph Nelson at Messrs.

The meieting broke up in a dead faint all around. 1 - The jlfew Federal JJuildiqff. Through the courtesy of the Sup erintendent, Mr. W. H. Chadbpurn, we were shown to day through the new public building. There is more room in tlie interior than one would imagine from the appearance of ihe building from the 6utside, although there is really not enough .as ;it is, There are three floors above tlie basement! The first floor is-de voted entirely to the user of the Postpflice department. The lobby, it strikes us, is rather small but the postal people have ample facilities, for the present, for the transaction .of their business, although we believe that more room will be needed in aj few years. The second floor is devoted entirely tojtho Federal courts. The court room itself is an elegant room, amply large for all ordinary jises, and the balance of the floprjs divid ed up into offices for the use of the officers of the court. The third floor is for the use of the U. S Engi iuecr officer1, and the Signal Observer, Mr. Chaffee, is already established there, in neat and cosy quarters convenient!. to liisinstruiuents on the roof of the building. Above all is the tower, reached by a winding stair case, enclosed in sheet iron, remind ing one forcibly of the turret of a monitor. From the turret at the top of this tower a magnificent view of the Western part of the city, the river and the country be yond is obtained- The Nayassa Guano Works are in ..nil vie a , houses and farms beyond the Bruns wick river may be plainly distin guished and there isa fioc viewof thp river beyond the dram tree. In the turret a large clock is to bejplaced. It will have three dials, OvorthjEast and West, put none ou the South as l.oiiB in this ritv. on the wharf ItlMJ . enclosure . from the stairway. near the Ioer end of Front street, - bbats off that quarter.

As stated by us yesterday the trackTis now laid for about 24 lirfles-from; tha cityt .(The expectation now is to get into Jack sonville in about sixty days, say by the first of October, and shortly thereafter it is probable that "work will be begun on the extension to Newbern. Trains are run every day on this road between the city and 81oop Point and thus far the traffic in both passengers ami freight " has been gratifying. The two traina spoken of by us yesterday will probably be put on next .week or at the, latest early in;the following week. A new aud powerful engine and two pas senger cars have been ordered and these are expected here next week. As sooii as they arrive a regular schedule will be announced. -,i i" Daring the .
