It says: "tflder the circumstances we shall offer to the Legislature to take the eontrict for the public work at fifteen percent, less than the pres ent rates, fifteen per cent, being ' the bonus heretofore received by the contractor." This is open, fair and manly. Just like the News and Observer. INGALLS is moving atiunt quite lively.

Repnhliean Senators riulired on the Election Bill i lie Kinani'Ihl Hill Movr (in lop. Wasuinotos, Jdn. 0 Tim action of the Senate in ditpluCint; tho Election bill witn tna t inHnc;ni bill was a com plete surprise to the ini'iids of tha for mer measure, and boveri of the Repub lican silver Senator.-!, who voted for the motion, say it wu-i without prior knowlodge on thtii- p n r. So far as can be learned tha arrangement to displace the Election bill v.aa not definitely effected until suine timo after the Sen ate mot, though there had been some quiet consultation pi ior to today on the subject. It is understood that Messrs. Stewart and Teller were tbe principal movers in tho schemo Tne matter was kept so quiet that tbo Idaho Senators even did not know what motion was to be made Seuator Shoup cays that he was told not to go away, that some thing 1 f interest to bilv,-r waa to take place, but says he did not know just what it was that was going to happen. Democrats aro rejoicing over the dis placement of tho Rleetion bill, and think it has received its dea:h blow. Tho inancial bill muat now bo dis placed by a direct vols, mid has the coign of vantij;e heretofore occupied by the Election bill It has tho right of way. The resolution to bring the fight; to an end vrs roauhpd suddenly by the silver Senators and was precip itated by a decision to hold a Republi can caucus tonight. Mr. Edmunds admire that under the rules the bill ri l be unfinished business until dinpo.e d of. and he added that ihe motion today vr:s a total sur prise to him Inquiry nraong other Republican Senators develop) tho fact that they were also utterly taken aback at the displacement of the Emotion bill. One Western Senator who personally re gards tho bill with indifference, but was not willing to abandon it now that it was a party measure, sail thit the friends of thn bill did nr.t know what to think or do now, for they had been so surprised that they hsd not bad time to consider the situation. Tho Senator said he legarded tha voto ss decisive of the fate of the bill, end that was tbe opinion of the majority of his col leagues with whom he had talked. The Argonaut Office Itnrned.

Children Cr for Pitcher's Castoria? GALATEA, THE MYSTEltt. Will Be Shown at tha New Berne Fair. The following is a defcription from the Charleston Sun of a wonderful ex hibition that will be tho n at tho New Berne Fair : The dime exhibition of 'Galatea' next door to the Academy of Music on King itreet, is worth seeing. It is seldom that such a wonder can be seen for ten cents. A Sun reporter dropped in there yesterday afternoon and found a good house of ladies and gentlemen. The exhibition is repeated every few minutes. This is what the reporter saw: The curtain rose, displaying a life sized stone bust of a beautiful woman, placed upon a table, inside a boxed enclosure, the side to the audience being and remaining open during the entire performance. The stage is bril liantly lighted, and there is no lowering of lights or curtain. The manager took the bust in bis arms and brought it down for the audience to examine. There was no hole in it. But IF THERE HAD BEEN A DOZEN they could not have decreased the merit of the exhibition. Toe bust was re placed and tho audience were told to keep their eyes upon it. Slowly the cheeks began to redden, the bald mafble caput began to develop blonde hair, tho eyes began to open and in twenty or thirty seconds the Halue was a live and lovely woman in evening dress. Sne smiled and conversed with tho mm on the Btago, who gallantly pmd a red rose on her bosom. Then slowly the cheeks paled, and with them the rose, until the womvn and (lower were both inanimate etone. The ston then became the woman again and the stone roso became a real one. It was now announced that the woman would die and her Hash would dissolve, leav ing only a grinning skeleton. It was done in leas than half a minute and in a minute more the skeleton became a huge bouqmt of (lowers, and the flowers evoluted again into the woman, and the woman again became the origi nal stono.

Read what a Greensboro gentleman savs: Greensboro, N. C.May 8, 1838. To Whom it May Concern : I have used two and a half bottles of Eureka Scalp Cleaner and Hair Purifier, prepared by Prof. Bell, and can truthfully say that I have received more benefit from its use than from any other preparation I ever used When I oommenced using Eureka mv scalp was full of soales and daudruff, and annoyed me very much, besides my ooat collar was always covered with dandruff, and in the short space of six weeks my head is as clean as it can be.
