The Democrats seem to be confident of carrying the State. m i hi mm They say that Oscar Wilde scooped in $25,000 by his lecturing tour in this State. He can afford to be called an ass many times on these terms. The Philadelphia Press says that only one tornado, and a little one, was ever felt in Khode Island. It must have been a little one for there wouldn't be room for a large one. Henry L. Wyatt, of North Carolina who fell at Bethel, was the first man killed on the battle-field in the war be tween the North and South. The new code of New York makes profane swearing punishable by a fine of $1 for each offence. If that law be enforced New York Will soon have a plethoric treasury. We are under obligations to Hun. It F. Armfield for a cupy of his able speech on the tariff commission bill, de livered in the House of Representa tives on the 13th inst A writer in the New York Graphic pronounces Adelaide Dichton, the ac tress, the most beautiful woman in the world. That is saying a good deal for Adelaide. Among the arrivals in New York one day last week were 800 Hollanders, each of whom had more or less means, bound for Minnesota to engage in sheep raising. While-' the New England manufac turer are struggling for a protective tariff, alleging as one of the arguments m its favor that It benefits American laborers, they are filling their establish J ments with cheap labor from Canada. It is a curious coincidence that Hal let Kilbourn's suit for damages against a former Sergeant-at-armsef the House, arising from his imprisonment as a stubborn witness, should have come in to court just as Shipherd has locked horns with another Congressional committee. The American Emigration Society held a meeting in New York last Sun day, at which Rev. S. S. Storrs, of Brook lyn, was the first speaker. He said that there were half a million negros in the United States who wanted to return to Africa, and he urged upon the society to make efforts to send them there. Pennsylvania "and i he West When will this thing of importing butter, meat, lard and other articles of daily consumption, all of which could be raised at home, cease? In a country where grass grows as luxuriantly as it does in North Carolina, ancNi here cows can be as easily cared for as they can here, and where they have to be house fed bat a small portion of the year, there is no excuse for sending abroad for butter. Many of 'our farmers do keep a few cows more than they need for home purposes, and make butter for market, and find ready sale at re munerative prices for all they make, and it is strange that they do not give more attention to it than they do. We will venture tha assertion that there will be more money in the long run to the farmer in twenty acres of meadow and the number of cows it would sup port, cared for as they should be, than in twenty acres of cotton, subject as it is to all the mutations of weather, the cost of cultivation, and the uncertain prices that speculation subjects it to when placed upon the market. The grass farm needs but little money to work it and but little eare to keep it up, and there is always a paying de mand for its product whether' in the shape of hay or in the yield of the dairy. And then grass enriches instead of exhausting the soil, and cuts down guano bills. SOMEBODY ELSE'S OX. The Baltimore Sun, a paper which does not fly off at tangent, and is re markable for its level-headed conserva tism in the discussion of political ques tions has this to say of the political prosecutions now going on in South Carolina : "The remarkable spectacle is present ed in South Carolina of the general gov ernment waging a war on special grounds against persons of the opposite political party. The frauds which oc cur at every election in New York, In diana or California are not looked into. There is no sectional animosity to it in those States. Nor were the noto rious frauds perpetrated annually in South Carolina prior to 1876, in the in terest of the party to which Attorney General Brewster belongs, closely scru tinized by the United States courts. No crusade was then waged to preserve in South Carolina the absolute purity of the ballot box. The result was then satisfactory, and when the attention of the officials at Washington was called to the means employed to carry elec tions in favor of the Republical party, the easy answer was: 'The government is not more called upon to interfere in South Carolina than elswhere; there are frauds in every State and we do not interfere; why should an invidious dis tinction be made V "The rdasoning is different now. Somebody else's ox is being gored. The alleged frauds of to-day are supposed to be committed in the interest of the par ty in opposition, and they are conse quently viewed with the virtuous in dignation of a person whose native State has ever been the scene of frauds more flagrant, but less investigated. It is, of course, right and proper that fraud at the polls should be punished every where. It is the invidious discrimina tion which prompts vigor on the part of the Attorney General in one State only that converts a prosecution into perse cution and excites deeply felt indigna f ion throughout the country. Under the forms or justice a general wrong and hurt to the sentiment of a whole people is done. Even if the parties ac cused are guilty, their punishnfent in one State under a law not enforced in twenty other States is substantial in justice and against good policy." 4i Big Batck Bill Day in the House A Offered and Appropriations by the Million Asked For The District Po lice Bill Brings the . "Bloody Shirt to the Front and Gets np Quite a Live-: The bill re-districting Ohio was rush ed through the Legislature in the last hours of the session, all the Democrats in the House voting against it, and on ly one Democratic Senator voting for it Under this new Congressional ap pointment the Republicans confidently claim sixteen of the districts and give the Democrats five. Those who have been predicting that the coal of Great Britain will be soon exhausted are poor prophets. It has been ascertained that there are no less than 145,288,613,000 tons of coal in the kingdom at depths of less than 4,000 feet, while new coal beds are every now and then discovered. It is estimated that this will be sufficient to last over 250 years. A heavy Italian emigration is drift ing toward Mexico. The Diario (offi cial) states that seyen colonies, number ing 2,530 persons, have recently settled in the country, and that a few weeks since three hundred Italian families ar rived at Vera Cruz, and have already settled on lands that had been selected by them in the vicinity of that city. The activity of immigration agents and the push of railroad construction is giving an impetus to Mexico that must be novel to the people of that somnolent Republic i i i i Forty per cent, of the population of Dakota, according to the census returns, are foreigners. It these, are deducted from the total number, there is left a very slim foundation on which to build the structure of a state. It is against the genius of representative govern ment to put the political power in the hands of eighty thousand people to checkmate five millions. Yet the two Senators from Dakota, if It is made a State, will have as potent a voice in the government as the two Senators from New York. PREPARING FOR A WATERLOO. The Winston Republican, stalwart commenting on an article in the States ville American on the proposed Repub lican coalition with the so-called liber al party in this State discourses thus: While the American speaks with so much confidence of the numbers of Republicans who voted for prohibition, why not tell us at the same time how many Democrats are pledged to leave their party and join the Republicans because they do not like prohibition ? unless we get bacK more than we lose we are advancing backward. Until some satisfactory information of this nature is presented, the situation seems to be about this: Those Republicans (some of them) who fayored anti-prohibition, stand ready to dismiss from the party the al leged 5,000 who voted for prohibition, unless they can cram down their throats objectionable doctrines. The Republicnn party, in 1880, was beaten by no less than 5,000 majority. Take away from the party 5,000 more and the majority is 10.000. Add the 5,000 to the Democratic vote and the majority grows to 15,000. Before fooling away this strength would it not be better to stop and count the cost? For if by any chance there should be 20,000 Republicans dismissed from the party or even 10,000, our next defeat would be worse than a Waterloo. There is a Chinese side to the veto hot generally known. , A correspondent of the New York.Times, writing from San Francisco, tSays: "The strangest pare of it all is that the Chinese them selves are the most disappointed, and bewail the failure of the bill more than anyone else. They bad, In anticipation of its passage, procured a gun, from which they were going to fire one hun dred rounds. I asked Wong, our Chi nese cook, what he thought about it (before the , veto)., .Wong wagged bis head with a satisfied air, and remarked : All Chinamen here hean vIaA liv Attorney-General Brewster, Judge Bond and District-Attorney Melton are now engaged in solidifying the Democ racy of South Carolina. A Congressman dropped the follow ing remark a few days ago at a Repub lican meeting in Washington: "Gen tlemen, we may as well realize the fact at this early day, that if we are to have a Republican majority in the next House it will not come from the "North : we must get it from the South." The editorial association of this State meets in annual session at Elizabeth City to-morrow. After business is dis posed of it is proposed to show the gen tlemen of the pencil and seissors frater nity some of the attractions of that splendid portion of North Carolina, which has so much to commend it and yet is comparatively so little known. John Kelly has announced himself as an independent candidate for Governor Of New York. He don't ATiwi in ha elected but hopes to beat the regular Democratic nominee. The main object of John's life now seems to be to beat Democratic nominees. - HoxJ5E.-Robin5Tjn, of New York, ris ing, to a question of privilege offered a resolution discharging the committee on foreign affairs from further consid eration of the resolution calling on the President for information as to the im prisoned American citizens, and declar ing that the same be brought before the House for immediate consideration but finally consented to let the matter go over until to-morrow. The Honse passed the bill appropria ting $50,000 to be immediately availa ble to continue the work in removing the obstructions from Hell Gate, New York harbor. A bill was introduced and referred, by Oates, of Alabama, to permit farm era to furnish tobacco to farm laborers and employes without payment of any tax. By Darrell, of Louisiana, fixing the salary of the assistant treasurer at New Orleans at $5,000. By Cox, of New York, a resolution approving the President's circular' of invitation to all independent countries of North and South America to partici pate in the Peace Congress in Wash ington on November . 22, and recom mending that said invitation be ex tended to the dominion of Canada.

By Robinson, of New York, for final adjournment of Congress on the 22d of May. By Ford, of Missouri, (by request) for improvement or the Mississippi, Mis souri and Ohio rivers, and their tribu taries. It authorizes the appointment of a "Mississippi River Commission," to consist of seven members, who shall devise the means and manner of im provement, and directs the Secretary of the Treasury to issue seventy-five mil lion dollars in treasury notes to be ex pended by the commission as follows: Fifty million dollars to be used for the improvement of the Mississippi River between Cairo and the mouth of the river, and twenty-five millions for im provement of the Mississippi and Mis souri rivers above Cairo and the Ohio river between Cairo and Pittsburg. Humphrey, of Wisconsin, from the committee on the judiciary reported a bill to establish a uniform system of bankruptcy. Ordered printed and re committed. The House then proceeded to the consideration of business relating to the District of Columbia. A bill increasing by one hundred members the police force of the Dis trict of Columbia gave rise to a discus sion upon the provision authorizing the District commissioners in the appoint ment of policemen to "give preference to men honorably discharged from the volunteer force of the army. Robeson, of New York, opposed the bill on the ground that it repealed the statute which required that all po licemen should have been honorably discharged from the army or navy. Cox, of New York, advocating the bill, accused Robeson of again raising the ''bloody shirt" either to accomplish some purpose at home or to imitate the Democratic side, or to invite the Re publican side, and he asked was. Con gress forever and forever to resurrect the ghost whenever some men whose record needed strengthening came here and invoked the bloody shirt. He protested against malcontents in Congress bringing up this question in such an insignificant matter as a Wash ington police bill. In the further course of the debate Robeson, while stating that he would accord to every soldier who had served in the Confederate army his full right under the constitution, declared that when it come to a question of favor he wanted to discriminate in favor of the man who had fought for the preserva tion of the Union. .'' Incidentally he inquired of Cook, of Georgia, who had entered into the de bate, whether, if he had been wounded in the Confederate army he would have applied to the United States Govern ment for a pension. Cook replied somewhat indignantly that he would not, and then proceeded to call attention to the fact that those members of Congress who had served in the Confederate army were never in sulted by men who had fought against them, insult always came irom tnose whose want of courage had Kept them in the rear and who had never seen a rebel. When this matter of the bloody shirt was removed from politics some people would have nothing to bank upon, certainly not on services render ed the country during the war. Finally the provision in the original bill touching this question was stricken out. The substitute recommended by the committee was rejected and the bill passed, leaving the appointments to be made under the existing law. The dis cussion took a political turn and in volved Robeson, Cox- of New York, McLane, Miller, Curtin and Randall, of Pennsylvania, and others, and contin ued for over an hour amid great noise and confusion without the exhibition of any ill-feeling. The foremost part of it was confined to the discussion of the manner in which the Democratic party had acted during war and it was precipitated upon the House, when in reply to a sarcastic remark from the Republican side, McLane asserted that in every Northern State as many Dem ocrats as Republicans marched under the Union flag. "Oh!" exclaimed Miller, of Pennsyl vania, whereupon. Mcuane cnaiiengea him. to assert that there were more Re publicans than Democrats in the army from Pennsylvania. - Miller: "I do assert that without fear of contradiction, and I know that when they voted on the field they were Re publicans ten to one. I know the fact that when the gentleman from Penn sylvania (Curtin) ran for Governor in 1863, as a Republican, the soldiers voted for him twenty to one." Curtin, of Pennsylvania: "In 1865 the soldiers of Pennsyl vonia in the field did not have the right to vote, and I did not get one vote from them." This was followed by a random dis cussion on! the political status of the Pennsylvania soldiers in which several gentlemen participated. The vote on the passage of the bill was yeas 11.7; nayes ,60, the negative vote being cast by Democrats. The following bills were introduced and referred. , .. , ' King; of - Louisiana, appropriating $200,000 for the payment of the cost of surveys and - expenses of Mississippi river commission. Also appropriating $301,500 for the payment of expenses of the national boarTef , health. Ad journed.

The entire time of the executive session of the Senate to-day, forty-five minutes, was devoted to tne further, consideration of the nomination of T.N. Cooper to be collector of Internal revenue for the sixth district of North Carolina. Ow ing to the fact that the Republican Senators' permitted- the passage of Vance's resolution on Friday last call ing for an investigation of the affairs of the collector of that district, the North Carolina Senators to-day did not offer persistent opposition to Cooper's con firmation. When the nomination was previously considered, a majority voted in favor of rejection, but a motion to reconsider the vote was admitted. To day after debate the motion to re-con sider the vote by which Cooper was re jected was adopted, and the previous action laid on the table. A vote was then taken upon the motion that the nomination be confirmed. This motion was adopted, 22 ayes against 18 nays The Republicans voted in the affirma tive and the Democrats in the negative, with the exception of the North Coroli na Senators and several others who re frained from voting.
