During the next two years the char
ters of 392 National banks will expire.
Dr. Talmage might be reminded that
denouncing Bob Ingersoll is not an
swering him.
Durham is agitating the question of
a graded school, and wants a United
States building.
The sports of Troy, N. Y., lost from
$10,000 to $15,000 on the Ryan-Sullivan
fisticuff.
The Salisbury Examiner wants Col.
J. N. Staples to step to the front and
answer a few questions.
The Abingdon, Va.. Standard tells
of a colered man who ate snow enough
to freeze himself to death.
All the German immigrants who had
settled in Marion county, S. C, have
pulled out and migrated to Pennsylva
nia. During the past twenty years patent
medicines have yielded in the aggre
gate $36,000,000 in taxes to the govern
ment. Rev. Dr. Miles, of Chicago, has de
clared himself an atheist, but goes on
preaching all the same. Chicago ain't
particular about such matters.
The Reform Signal is the title of an
anti-ring, anti-Bourbon, anti-monopoly
organ started at Columbia, S. C. There's
Antis enough for one institution.
According to the telegraphic account
of the mill between Ryan and Sullivan
at Mississippi City, "no official med
dling marred the sport." Official med
dling is pretty good.
Oscar Wilde has discarded knee
breeches during his trip in this coun
try. Before he leaves he will probably
discard his lilies and sun-flowers, and
then what will remain of 03car?
A Vicksburg grocer failed a few days
ago and found when his books were
balanced up that he could pay 100 cents
on the dollar and have $2,000 left. He
was short on book-keeping.
Augusta Chronicle: The stations
along the line of the Augusta and
Knoxville railroad are building up rap
idly. This line promises to be one of
the most important that comes into
Augusta.
Augusta Chronicle: This place is rap
idly taking its position as the most im
portant manufacturing town in the
South. It will not be many years be
fore it will be one of the most import
snt in the Union.
Roscoe Conkling recently declined
an invitation to a Grant club banquet
at Albany, giving as a reason that he
was industriously at work at his pro
fession, the neglect of which in past
years compelled him to give close at
tention to it now.
Augusta News: The brightest future
always appears to the man who is to be
hanged. To a man on the scaffold, un
der the gallows, about to be executed,
the new Jerusalem fairly shines, and
looks as bright as a new steam fire en
gine. The Rev. James T. Powers, imprison
ed in Massachusetts for vagrancy, once
a very clever preacher and writer, sank
to his present condition through sorrow
at the loss of of his wife. No miscon
duct of any kind is urged against him.
The New York Tribune says: "If
Mr. Conkling will hang his '306' brass
medal around his neck and canvass this
State as a candidate for the Republican
nomination for Governor, he will ac
quire a large amount of valuable infor
mation on the subject of public opin
ion." Bradlaugh has again beeri compelled
to withdraw from the House of Com
mons because he holds infidelic views
on the question of religion, and yet it
is barely possible that he is not a worse
man than many of those who refuse
him a seat in that body.
A correspondent of the Louisville
Courier Journal says: "I am only one
of many who believe that the police
force of Savannah. Ga.,in efficiency and
discipline, and all that constitutes faith
ful guardians of the peace, surpasses
any other in this country."
A remarkable case has just been tried
in St. Louis. A man was arrested for
stabbing another, and although the dy
ing man swore positively that he was
not the man, yet the jury convict
ed him of murder in the first degree,
and his counsel are now moving for a
new trial.
Richmond State: It is becoming a
very notable fact, we understand, that
the wives of most of our prominent
Readjusters are very strong Conserva
tive Democrats, and are proud of their
principles. If they could only vote we
should have no fears for the future of
.the Conservative party in Virginia;
but, unfortunately, they cannot.
Randall, the correspondent of the Au
gusta Chronicle says: Very little doubt
exists as to the recharter of the Na
tional Banks. Oratorical broadsides
will be poured against them, but the
votes of a sufficient majority will be in
their favor. Some of the presumed ob
jectionable features may be eliminated,
but the essential basis will remain.
A dispatch to the Cincinnati Enqui
rer says: "Among some very intelli
gent nd sagacious politicians the im
pression prevails that Blaine has made
up his mind to break down the present
administration, even at the expense of
disrupting the Republican party. In
abort, rather than that the wing now
in power shall have a renewal of the
lease four year hence, which it now
holds by accident, he would much pre
fer to have the Democracy secure the
possession of the national helm."
OF COURSE WE WILL,
The Salisbury Eximiner aska The
Observer if it will answer one ques
tion, and t!:a propounds tLu follow
ing: "Does TnE Oust.rver f vor the
nomination of any yrohibiii 'n's . for
office by the Democratic paiiv m Uio
coming campaign V"
Briefly, yes; but not as a prohibition
ist, as it would also favor the nomina
tion of an anti-prohibitionist, but not
as an anti-prohibitionist. The Obser
ver does not propose to be influenced
in its action by the course that gentle
men saw fit to take on that question,
when it was under discussion. It con
ceded the fight then to others that it
claimed for itself, to form their own
opinions and act.upon them. It did not
then and does not now regard it as a
political question, and it never would
have become anything like a political
question had it not been for the action
of those members of the Republican
executive committee who committed
the Republican party to the anti-pro
hibition side of the question, and thus
made it a political question as far as
giving the anti-prohibition side their
almost solid support That was simply
a piece of political legerdemain. We
all understand it. It was not the desire
nor intention of the friends of the
measure that it should become a politi
cal measure, and as far as we know it
is not their desire now. The Obser
ver .certainly never argued it from that
stand-point, and hence is free to sup
port the nominees of the Democratic
party irrespective of their prohibition
or anti-prohibition views.
We believe this is a direct answer.
And now will the Examiner do us the
favor to tell us whether it would favor
the nomination of any prohibitionist?
MADE TO ORDER,
The editor of the Concord Sun is
sprightly and humorous, but it would
perhaps be as well for him in indulging
his humor or sarcasm not to entirely
misrepresent the subject under discus
sion. It is not necessary to do this to
be entertaining, especially when one is
gifted with the talent of originality
which our young friend of the Sun pos
sesses. He can defend Col. Johnston,
as he has the right to do, without
trumping up invented charges, even in
a humorous way, that were never
made. To be funny is one thing, to be
absurd i3 another, and in attempting the
former one should avoid the latter.
It don't make any difference one way
or the other how the North State
stood upon the prohibition question,
but as a matter of fact it was neutral
Mr. Keogb, who shapes its course as a
member of the Republican Committee,
was opposed to the movement of Dr.
Mott and others.when he committed the
Republican party to the anti-prohibition
side of the question.but it took no side in
the discussion, though one or two arti
cles, we believe, on the evils of intem
perance may have appeared. But as to
espousing the side of prohibition it did
not.
Richmond State: It is suggested that
President Arthur will be placed in a
very delicate position when he comes
to sign the death warrant of Guiteau,
"the man who," in the senseless jargon
of the time, "made him President."
This is sheer nonsense. President Ar
thur wa3 made President by the Consti
tution of the United States and votes
of its people, and not by the bullet of
this wretched assassin, and therefore
need have no hesitation or compunc
tions of conscience about performing
the last official act that consigns the
murderer of his predecessor, or, in the
language of the day, "the man who
made him President," to the gallows.
A Fatal Pistol Encounter,
Washington, Feu. 10. A. M. Soledo,
who was shot last night is still living
and has regained entire consciousness,
although he is paralyzed from the head
down, and his death is only a question
of short time. In conversation with
his friends he disclaims having had any
intention to shoot Barton, and says he
forgives him (Barton) for it. He has
thus far declined to make any legal
ante mortem statement. This is con
strued to mean that he is of the opinion
that one of his brother's shots intended
for Barton struck the elder Soledo.
Barton had a pistol in his table drawer
which he seized when attacked. Only
one chamber of this was found to be
empty and Barton had clubbed it and
used it on both his assailants. Young
Soledo's pistol was found empty. It
had four chambers. The elder Soledo's
pistol was fully charged. All the weap
ons are in the hands of the police. Bar
ton's pistol was an old one. Upon the
person of the wounded Soledo was
found a ten inch dirk knife. All of the
weapons of the brother of Soleda were
new and bright. Barton in his state
ment says both of his assailants were
greatly under the influence of liquor.
The younger Soledo was arraigned in
the police court to-day, charged with
assault and battery with intent to kill
his brother Antonio M. Soledo. and
committed without bail to await the
result of the latter's injuries. Barton
is not seriously injured by either
wound.
Excitement on the Mb Louii Chance,
St. Louis, Feb. 10. The excitement
on Change at the opening this morning
was the most intense and demonstra
tive ever known here. Most desperate
efforts were made to control the mar
ket, the "longs" insisting on higher
prices and the "shorts" persistently at
tempting to hammer them down. Fi
nally the excitement ran so high that
a panic became imminent and then sev
eral of the principal "shorts" agreed to
do no more trading except in settle
ment. This almost instantly stopped
trading and the excitement subsided
greatly to the relief of everybody. At
li :ao, tne closing can motion was put
and carried that all deals should be re
garded as in solemn. Prices then ad
vanced 1 to V-A cents, and trading pro
ceeded quietly and with decorum. No
suspensions have been announced this
morning and no new rumors of trouble
have so far been heard.
Weather.
Washington, Feb. 10. For the Mid
dle Atlantic States Fair weather,
northerly to easterly winds, stationary
or lower temperature, higher pressure.
For the South Atlantic States Fair
weather, winds mostly northeasterly,
stationary or higher temperature and
pressure.
For the East Gulf States Warmer,
fair weather, northeast veering to
southeast winds, stationary pressure.

lieving a CaxUlered Officer.
Washington, Feb. 10. Senate.
A resolution by Windom was adopted
calling for a report of the treasury cat-,
tie commission on lung plague or con
tagious pleuro-pneumonia.
Edmunds gave notice that the Judi
ciary Committee would on Tuesday
ask to have a bill regarding polygamy
in Utah considered, and hoped it would
be disposed of on that or the following
day.
Morrill said after the Pension Ar
rears resolution was acted on he would
antagonize all measures with the tariff
commission bill.
The remainder of the morning hour
until 3 o'clock was consumed in consid
ering without action several measures
of a strictly private interest
At 1 :30 the pension arrears resolution
was again taken up, and Maxey resumed
his remarks in support of the amend
ment declaring in favor of an enlarge
ment of the Mexican war pension list
He alluded to the exceptional features
of that war as one in which our volun
teers carried the flag upon a foreign soil,
and as one whose results in the acquisi
tion of territory were of material bene
fit to the country, and eulogized the
services of our little army in their suc
cessful campaign.
Beck said the principle had been an
nounced that tne arrears or pensions
should be given to pensioners of all our
wars, irrespective or their circumstan
ces, and that if this was carried out it
would bankrupt the country. He would
vote for properly guarded legislation to
pension the needy and deserving of our
veterans, Due not inose oi tnem wno
did not need this aid.
At 2 :10, the resolution was laid aside
bv eeneral consent and Frye proceeded
to address the Senate upon the tariff,
the Morrill commission Din Deing in
formally taken up. To premise his re
marks he announced himself a protec
tionist upon principle.
At 3:35. upon conclusion of Frye's
remarks, consideration of the Pension
Arrears resolution was resumed and
Call, who was awarded the floor for a
speech upon it, yielded for a motion for
an executive session.
Pending action Lapham introduced a
bill to establish a mint of the United
States in New York city; also a joint
resolution directing the loint commit
tee on printing to contract with report
ers of the trial of the murderer of
President Garfield for publication in
book form of an official report of the
trial.
Tbe Senate then, at 8:45, went into
executive session, and at 4:05 adjourned
till Monday.
House. Prescott, of New York,
moved to lay aside the consideration of
private business for the purpose of per
mitting debate upon the apportionment
bill to be continued, but tailed to ob
tain the necessary two-thirds vote, and
the Speaker, as the regular order, pro
ceeded to the call of committees for re
ports of a private nature.
At the conclusion of the morning hour
Prescott, of New x ork, made another
attempt to bring up his apportionment
bill but was again unsuccessful, ana
House at 1.10 went into committee of
the whole with Joyce, of Vermont in
the chair, on tbe privilege calendar.
The first bill on the calendar author
izing the President to appoint D. F
Kirby to a captaincy in the army, gave
rise to a long discussion, the facts being
that Colonel and Urevet-lingadier Gen
eral Kirby was cashiered from the
army for drunkenness and conduct un
becoming an officer. The opponents of
the bill contended that with that record
staring Congress in the face, it couldn't
afford to grant tne relief asked tor
After determined opposition a vote
was taken on laying the bill asid for
consideration, and it was agreed to,
96to 55.
The committee then rose and report
ed the bill to the House.
Bragg, of Wisconsin, immediately
moved to adjourn, but yielded to His
cock, oi .New i ort, to report tneim
mediate deficiency appropriation bill
and to Blackburn, of Kentucky, to re
port the military academy appropria
tion bill which were referred to the
committee of the whole.
Hiscock gave notice that he would on
Monday call up the deficiency bill for
consideration.
Bragg's motion was then rejected and
the bill for the relief of D. F. Kirty
was ordered engrossed and read a third
time.
Bragg called for the reading of the
engrossed bill, hoping thereby to delay
action upon it, but the friends of the
measure had had the bill engrossed be
forehand and it was read. The bill
was then passed. Ayes, 97 ; nays, 63.
Craven or Arkansas, introduced a
bill authorizing the Mississippi, Alber-
querque and Inter-Uceanic Company to
construct a road, through tne Chocktaw
and Chickasaw reservations. Keterred
The Speaker laid beore the House a
communication from the secretary or
the Treasury transmitting a list of of
ficers and employes of the Internal
Revenue Bureau and Department of
J ustice, who have been killed or wound
ed in the enforcement of the internal
revenue laws. Iteferred.
The number of employes killed is 29:
the number wounded, 50. The names
of eight persons are als given who
were assaulted ana wounded tor sup
plying internal revenue officers with
information.
The House then at 5.05 adjourned un
til Monday.
A Now York Failure.
New York, Feb. 10th. Some of the
creditors of Wm. R. Preston & Co. met
at the produce exchange to-day and con
sidered tbe statement which the nrm
had sent them and which they returned
so that it might be made clearer and
more detailed. The meeting was of the
opinion that the firm would pay 00 cts.
on the dollar at least, To-day cotton,
wheat and lard in which the firm was
largely interested have advanced con
siderably and this will decrease the
amount of the firm's liabilities, which
is now estimated at about $65,000.
Railroad Charter Wanted.
Richmond, Feb. 10.-In the Senate
to-day Atkinson, of Richmond, intro
duced a bill to incorporate the Alle
ghany .Extension Railroad company,
The object of the bill is to authorize the
construction of a railroad from any
point beyond Lvnchbure. on the line of
the Richmond & Alleghany Railroad to
west Virginia, and to consolidate with
any other railroad which would form a
connecting line with the Richmond &
Alleghany Railroad.
The French Senate,
Paris, Feb. 10. The first trial of
strength in the Senate since the recent
election or senators, resulted in the re
jection of a bill against domiciliary
visits and expulsion from monasteries,
by a vote of $l to 101, showing that
the Jules Simons party no longer have
the casting vote in such questions.
When a remedy has stood the test of more than
thirty yean trial and to day is more largely used
than ever, Its worth is evidently unquestioned.
Such Is the record of Dr. Bull's cough syrup.
