Thi Payment of the (special tax

has again brought that subject
p -oininent ly f or ward,because he is the
owner of a large number of them and
ik seeking through the Federal courts
lb secure their puymeut. We refer
lb this matter just now because an
rtiteemed subsoibci has written to
'is ttf answer through the Record the
followu g question: Did the con
yeution of 1875 repudiate the special
kind of a democrat. In a letter writ
ten iu answer to a House resolution
of inquiry as to Canadian discrimina
tiou against, : American vessels, Mr.
Thompson shows that such discrimi-.
nation exists to a very marKeu exieui
upou the Welland canal, and he re-
ninrinnris lftaliatoiv lemslatiou as
the best remedy. That's just the kind
of talk. Nations arc like men, they
always respect the follow that strikes
back from the shoulder when he is
struck.
The republican Senators seem anx
ious to bring about another dead lock
in the House. They are about to
tack the Direct Tax bill, that caused
the late dead lock, on the Sundry
Civil Appropriation bill, as an amend
ment. When the late deadlock was
broken, the House agreed to vote up
on this bill iu December, when it will
be sure to pass. The states having
waited nearly 27 years for this money
could surely wait a few luore months
This bill is brought forward again at
this time, for no other purpose than
to make another deadlock

use quite two-thirds, so great is our
demand for cans, pans, pails and sim

stimulated a wish to produce the
thing, and, as usual, Congress aud
taxes were appealed to, with the re
sult that in 1864 a customs tax of 15
per cent, was by Congress levied on
the foreign article..
That tax was not enough to start
the industry, and so, in 1875, all am
biguous phrase was inserted in the j
law, worded by those who inserted it j
to really increase the rate; but Seen- j

to be much of a future for the Pur
royites. The struggle withiu the party over
the nomination for Governor, while
not at all boisterous, is still going
on aiter a very lively fashion under
the surface. Only by the bubbles
which come up from the perturbed
waters below can the progress of the
fight be traced. Governor Hill's
friends claim that nothing can defeat
his renomination. His opponents say
that two thirds of the delegates from
this city and a practically solid dele
gation from Kings county, includiug
Brooklyn, will form the nucleus of an
opposition which :!! prove irresist
ible. There is some talk of the Republi
Ciins nominating Chauneey M. Depew
for Mavor. They bank on his per
sonal popularity and the dual Demo
cratic tickets. As the Republican
voting strength in the city is barely
one-fourth of the whole it makes lit
tle difference whether the Democrats
put two tickets in the field or one
the local officers are quite certain to
be Democrats.
The present outlook" is not' at all
favorable to local union. Fire Com
missioner Croker upon whose shoul
ders fell the mantle which John Kelly
wore so long, is said to be unaltera
bly opposed to fusion. Most of the
Tammany ehiefs are with him on that
point, while perhaps the majority of
the leaders of the County Democracy
are supposed to favor the union. It
is hard guessing now which way the
cat will jump.

did so, aud ou reaching a convenient

Thfie being in 1888 an enormous;
aud horrid surplus to be obliterated, j
the Mills bill puts tin plates on the
free list, with the object of putting
an eud to .$5,750,000 of surplus tixes j
and releasing from taxes the canning
industries and the farmers, artisans
and housekeepers using tin pans, tin
cans and tin pails The rate of duty
taid ou them has been about 33 per
cent., but the Republicans iu the
House ti ied, not only to take tin plates
out of the free list, but to double tLe
tax rate. On that effort was the two
days' debate.
Trouble in the Camp.
A special of the 28tb, from Greens
boro to the Richmond Dispatch says:
Hon. John M. Brower, Republican
member of Congress from the Fifth
North Carolina district, bas caused a
general rattling of the dry bones in
the Republican camp by voting with
the Democrats for the Mills bill. A
joint meeting of the Republican lead
ers iu this district was held here last
night to confer over the awkwardness
and general cussedness of the situa
tion, but it appears to be quite diffi
cult to pour oil on the troubled waters,
as Brower boldly maintains his defi
ance and Ktubbomness. It wasleamed
today that resolutions were passed in
the conference yesterday and last
night, strongly condemning the afore
said isrower for his Democratic pro
clivities, and in evidence of this fact
the North State (Republican) has
taken down from its masthead the
name of Brower. At present the out
look for the Republicans in this State
presents a gloomy aspect, as their
forces are badly scattered, with the
State organization going to. pieces.

Weather and Crops.
Washington-. July 30. The weath
er and crop bulletin, issued by the
Sigual Office, says :
The weather during the past week
has improved the condition of the
glowing crops in the corn and wheat
States, in the central valleys and the
Northwest.
Reports from Southern Illinois, Mis
souri and Tennessee indicate that
while the crops are not injured, more
rain would improve them
The weather indications were gen
erally uniform for cotton, more rain
being needed in North and South
Carolina and Alabama, and bigher
temperature in Mississippi.
Repoits from Kentucky indicate
that the tobacco crop would be im
proved by more rain.
The weather has b. en favorable foi
harvesting in the Middle Atlautic
States, Michigan and Southern Min
nesota, but more rain is needed iu
Michigan, Indiana, and some sections
of New Jersey and Pennsylvania.

Two maiden ladies, Misses Beves, liv

last night shot and killed one burglar
and mortally wounded and captured
another, about midnight. One of
the sisters saw the man in her room
and seized a revolver and fired, killing
him. He was shot through the tern
pie. The other sister was awakened,
seized the weapon and sprang on the
othei burglar as he was trying to es
cape through the window. He was
too late and fell to the ground with
a bullet through his groin. Both
burglars were strangers in these parts,
but are supposed to be old timers.
