It is a city to be proud of, and we hail with unrepressed satisfaction every new house that is erected, every sign of progress, every manifestation of public spirit. TRe Stab is not. a destructive. It is a builder up. It has been pub lished for nearly twentv veara arid man's .friend. We wish to supple ment that article by calling attention to another fact connected with the tax on salt, j It is so inexcusable and unjust a discrimination that it should be made cdious. The way to do this is to expose it without mercy. The Star mentioned the fact that Bait was free for fishermen, but the farmers had to pay a heavy tax on the same. Bat the very unjust and iniquitous discrimination lies iu another direction. The New Eng land fishermen do not pay a cent tax on salt. The ReDubl ican ConcrftKR i ' , .

It does not deny: that now and then a person lives to be 100 years and more," for iMjave two an- uriiuvucii . umiauues wuere tnere was no cause whatever for doubt. The Stab does not believe that cen tenarians are common. It does not believe that one man in a hundred millions ever- attains to 115 or 120 yearn, pnd not one in five hundred years to 150 years of age. The pa pers are filled with accounts of ex treraely old people, but in scarcely an instance is there an unimpeacha ble record. To show how infrequent must be tho cases of people living to 105, to 1 15, or to 150 years, the Stab has pointed to two singular facts. First, that of the hundred thousand or more Methodist preachers , who have lived but one has been known to attain to the hundredth year. Second, that life insurance has been going on for two hundred years and millions of persons have been insured .in Europe and America, and yet not one policy has been paid on a person who had reached 100 years. Is this not re markable, when we consider the' fact that none but the best, healthiest subject is insured each one having to undergo an examination by a phy sician in the employ of the company insuring. Then consider farther that no person can be insured who is a consumptive, is scrofulous, is insane, is cancerous, or in whose family is any ot these diseases. Slay , or Execution.

The German Tariff has had a very unfortunate effect upon one'class of workers, the woollen manufacturers. They became so embarrassed that it became: wick, and all the adjoining counties I a11 indebtedness by paying from 33J r necessarily on a bost becatise cents to 70 cents in the dollar. Too Wilmington is increasing in popua tion and wealth. i The Manufacturers1 Record Bays the Stab is injuring North Carolina because it denies that the farming interests of tho State are in a healthn ful, progressive State, tt would have the Stab to misrepresent in ir dcr to invite capitalj and immi grants. It would have the Stab to swear that the (farmers of JJorth Carolina had not been buying their bacon and lard and for age and flour and meal in the North and Northwest. It would have the Stab to say that it was a gross and infamous slander to aay that com mercial fertilizers were used, but that home manures were relied upon excln- sively. It would have the Stab to say much production is the cause of the failures, it is said. This was brought aoout by the excessive stimulus of nign dunes under the Tariff. There was a premium or bounty held out to the manufacturers by reason of this high tax, jand the result was there were too many goods made. A crash and disastrous compromise followed ior the goods could not be disposed of.

Probably there is no one in Wilmington who would do or sy anything in dispar agement of Charleston or its brave and en terpriSing citizens, but the intimation in the above, that the harbor of Wilmington is not equal to that of Charleston is misleading nd not iu accordance with the facta. Once Wilmington had a "shallow harbor." but since the improvements made by the Gene ral Government, with the closing of New Inlet? and the dredging operations in the river, vetse!a drawing seventeen feet can come! uoito the wharves in thn ohf . f - i I .

Masters of British steamers visiting Southern ports say that Wilmington has a better harbor than Charleston. As cor roborativc:of this it is worthy of note that two Or more of these steamers, last fall. carried out a greater number of bales of cotton from this port than they were able to carry from Charleston. Furthermore. the French war vessel Ducoedic. which was in this port for several days last April, was under oiders to visit Charleston, but could not get over the bar. and the commander of the vessel was compelled to make his visit to the French consul at that place by rail from Savannah. The Condemned Burglar Jones. John Jones, colored, the condemned burglar now in the county lail, will be re sentenced at the next term of the Criminal Court, which convenes in this city on the 181B Of July next.

His case was car ried On aDDCal to the Rtinreme fVvnrt vhn decided that there was no error, and. under a new statute adopted by the Legislature in February last, Gov. Scales issued his warrant for the execution to take place on the 17th of this month. The warrant wan sent to Sheriff Manning but was afterwards withdrawn by the Governor, pending a de cision by the Supreme Court, as to the effect of the law. Yesteiday Maj. Jno W. Durham, clerk of the Criminal Court, received a conv of a decision by the Supreme Court, in a similar case from Union county, in which the Court hold that the prisoner can be resentenced only in tho Court below. Judge Merrimon, in hi3,opinion, says that the amendment to th statute prescribing that in the sentence' for capital felony the clerk of the 3upreme Court, at the same time that the decision "of the Supreme Court ia certified, shall send a duplicate thereof to the Governor, who Bhaiummediately IsfetjT his warrant for the execution of the death penalty, on a day not less than thirty days from the dale of the warrant, cannot be interpreted as ap plying to cases wherein the aDDeal wan taken before the time the statute became operative.

The culmina tion Of the National Drill was reached and passed exactly according to the programme u v viuuil luib Biierauon, ana wiui every element contiibuting to make the event to be remembered. The troops, about 2,000 in number, were drawn up in five lines, their centre facing the stand erected in the middle of tho. broad drill enclosure upon which General Sheridan and a brilliantly uniformed staff had taken their place. Gen. Augur and staff came on horseback and re mained mounted during the ceremonial. General-Ordway, chief of General Augur's staff, formally announced to General Sher idan that the troops were assembled to hear the awards and receive the prizes in accor dance with ; the decision of the hoard of judges. An envelope containing the list of the awards, sealed with a ponderous circlerof red wax, was then handed by Gen. Ordway to Col. Black, chairman , of the Board of Judges, who in turn passed it to Col. King, conductor of the dress parades. This officer rode to a position a few yards in front of the Btand, opened the envelope and read the awards, ordering command ing officers of winning organizations to .the front in turn, as the several awards were announced. As the name of the first or ganizationVirginia National Guards was announced and the commanding offi cer was canea ioi, Uol. King turned and said: "He is in town, sir. and can't be far away." At that moment the Colonel of the Virginia troops came around the stand from the rear. The troops left Wash ington for their homes last Saturday, and the Colonel and Lt Colonel were alone on hand to receive the prizes. Three half-covered boxes containing medals were handed to the Colonel by Gen. Sheridan,! who then asked if he had any one to receive the flags. The Lieutenant Colonel then came forward, and large flags with their oil cloth cover ings .making a comfortable armful, were passed down to them and carried away to the rear. All other prize winning organiza tions were in line anil Haif MmmLniliiiii .uu.. w.. i miauu.u officers came forward at the word, marched sword in band to the stand, saluted and received from the Lieut. General the prizes. The cash awards were contained in open envelopes out of which projected the ends of newly issued national currency in bills of large denominations. It seemed to be a problem with some of the proud reception- law. uow to secure tne mus; in the rresh breeze which was blowing, take charge of the boxes containing medals, and. with their hands thus occupied, salute as they retired. Two hands were hardly up to the requirements in some cases, and more than one lucky commander retired per force without saluting in due form, j- The follow ing is the official list of the standing of organizations in competitions as announced: Regimental First Regiment, Va.

May 81. A prominent orBcial. entirely disinterested, who has talked with the President in regard to the vacancy in tho U. S. Supreme Court caused by the death of Justice Woods, said to a representative of the Associated Press to-day, that while the President baa de cided to give the place to the South, he w nauButu mai mere is nothing in the con- siHuuonai law or precedents which con fines the selection of the appointee to the States included in the circuit to which the deceased Judge was assigned. The ofllcial explained that while Congress fixes the boundaries of judicial circuits, the court itself makes the assignment of judges, and it has frequently happened that the judge appointed from one State is assigned to the circuit in an entirely different section of the country; and also, tbar wh -n vacancy has occurred in any particular circuit, it has been frequently filled by an appointment from a 8tate al together outside of its jurisdiction. In demonstrating this assertion the official said that Judge Taney, j at the time of his death in 1864, presided over the Fourth Circuit, which included the Statts of Maryland, West iViritinia, Virgi nia and North and South Carolina, but in stead of selecting his successor from one of those States, the Preeirient a Chase, of Ohio, and he was assigned to the Fourth Circuit Judge Swayne, of Ohio, was also on the bench at that time. So that Chase's appointment gave Ohio two representatives on the bench at the same ume. tvnen uuase died in 1873, making another vacancy in the Fourth Circuit, ex Attorney General Williams, of Oregon was nominated for the place, but was re jected by the Senate. Caleb Cushing of Massachusetts, was next nominated and be too. was rejected These gentlemen, said the speaker, were rejected for political reasocB. and not because they did not belong 10 the States included in the circuit where the vacancy existed. There can be no question on that score, he said for the rea son that the next gentleman nominated JudiZe Waite was f mm Ohin mrf h. confirmed. He was assigned to the Fourth Circuit. Then again, when Judge Gner, fl Penn.. died, in 1869,' Judge 8tanton, .of Ohio, was appointed to his place, ' not withstanding Grier's circuit embraced the States of Pennsylvania. I New Jersey and IWaware. Stanton died, however, soon after his appointment and before he could take his seat. Judges Waite and 8wayne, both from Ohio, sat on the bench for sev eral jcars together, and when the latter re tired, Stanly Matthews, of Ohio, was ap- nmuitu id 01s piace; so (hat there are two men frcm the name Htmit mill .. v. 1.

However, when J nde Woods, of Ga. , was appointed, Judce Bradlev Via tranaforrsH tn ..Ail,.. circuit, (the Third) and Judge Woods was given the Fifth Circuit. "I have just mentioned these facts," remarked the offi cial, -to show that thej President in se lecting a person for the existing vacancy, Can take a man frnm iDlior.. t,Z plettjts. and there is nothing more to rrtVent him frnm ilninn on there 1.4 to prevent him 1 from taking two uiciuucra oi nis (jaoinet rrom fthe same State.

A Colored iflan Aaka an Award of $25,000 for being .. FJectcd from : a First Claaa Car Mora Appeals for and Against Suspension of tne Lone and Short Hani Clause. a i By Telegraph to the Morning Star. Washototoh, May 8I. Complaint has been received by the Inter-State Commerce Commission from Wm. H. Council, a col ored man. directed against the Western & Atlantic Railroad Company, in which he avers that on account of hiscolor he was forcibly ejected from the first class car after having paid for a first-class ticket. He asks that the Commission award him $25, 000 damages and such other relief as it may deem proper. " - , r r An interview with Commissioner Bragg iu reiauoa to iuis comoiaint is puoiiahed in the Evening Star. Mr. Bragg said : "I know Council well. He is one of the Dngniest ana best of our colored citizens. He is a staunch Democrat and canvasses the State at every election for the Democratic ticket. He is not a man who desires to push himself forward because of any am bition to obtain social equality.) He is modest and unassuming. He is a gentle man. When I was president of the Ala bama Board of Railroad Commissioners, I required railroads to furnish firsNclass ac commodation for all passengers who paid first class fare. There was a fearful kick against it, but I stuck to it and enforced the order. They have no right to exact a first class fare from a colored man and then give ! him , fourth-class accommodations. The ( result of my order was that the railroads had to provide separate first class cars for first class colored passen gers. Why, representatives ot this very' railroad company came up here and en deavored to persuade the President not to appoint me upon this commission because I had taken a stand in favor of. what I re garded as "instice to the enlnrerf nnAnla That was the only point they made against me, but the President did not seem to sym pathize with them in their opposition to me. This complaint is not against any Alabama railroad, it is made against the Georgia .Central. Perhaps as a burlesque, or with the view of making Council's com-, plaint ridiculous, a white citizen of Geor gia has forwarded the charge I that the Georgia Central refused to permit him to ride in a "Jim-Crow" car, as tho car set apart for colored passengers is called. The complaint has not yet been I received, but the CommUsionera have been ad vised that it is coming. In terms, it fol lows the complaint of Council, alleging that complainant paid first-class fare, and therefore had the right to ride m any car, but when he sought to enter the colored car he was prevented by the railroad em ployes. The white citizen complains that he was discriminated against because of his color; that had he been a I negro be could have travelled in the "Jim Crow" car. Spirits TuijSS dist.
