THE Republican Senators, Plumb,

Cameron and Steward ar.i out
square agaiust the Foicl- bill, while
Oallom, Davis, YV.ij.hbu.ii and
others haven't any particular tink

IT is said that Senator Hoar's
dislike of young men turned to
absolute disgust when the ycu.ig
Mr. Wolcott, of tbo State ol
Colorado, tore the Force bill to
pieces in about fifteen minutes.
Fortunately there are too many
Walcotts for the Hoars iu this
country.
The State Chronicle says the
State cannot get the tuud appro

Winston and Raleigh are among

location of the college.
ON last Friday Representative
Kelly, of Kansas, introduced a bill
in? the House to provide for the
issue of 150,000,000 of fractional
currency and to iucrease the
volume of currency to that extent.
This currency is to bo a legal
tender op to $10, and to be redeem
able as otber treasury notes, and
when redeemed, may bo reissued.
THE News and Observer is in
the field for public printer. 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.

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.

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. G ilatea had a great run in
Richmond, ur.l is doing a fine business
here.

is wonderful. Tho:ia who inis seeing
it will miss a rare oppoiuutiity. All

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.
There is no itching, and the nbw hair
has commenced to grow where the ecalp
was perfectly bald before.
