CHAS. B. JONES, ditor and Prop'tor. rXHTXBio at rem Pow-Omo 4f CBABLom, WEDNESDAY, MAY 3, 1881. Lynishy who got Chalmers' seat in Congress, is an octoroon. - Kind handled persons in all have been arrested in Ireland under the ' coercion act Texas would make 241 States like Rhode island, and have room left for several gardens. The form maker of the Augusta Chronicle took old time by the fore lock and dated Sunday's paper May 7th. The smallpox is considered over in Atlanta as no new case has developed within the past week. The New Orleans Times-Democrat publishes several columns in Spanish for the benefit of its Mexican readers. The Philadelphia Record suggests abolishing internal taxes as an "effective means of crushing the whiskey ring." Sam Clements, (Mark Twain) who is on a Southern tour, is now rusticating at New Orleans. The Executive Committee of the State Anti-prohibition association met in Raleigh yesterday. In 1872 the coal fields of Alabama yielded 10,000 tons, in 1881, 400,000, from which we should judge there is some coal in Alabama. It is beginning to look as if Stephens, of Ga, would yield to the blandishments of those who want him to run for Gov ernor. A difficulty occurred at Abbeville, S. C Friday night between E. Noble, Jr. and Tilman Wardlaw, of the Press and Banner, in which the latter wastshot in the thigh. The question in Georgia is will Mr. Stephens run for Governor, and the Post-Appeal, the organ of the new move, assures the public that if nomi nated he will. A Eentuckian who is supposed to have been behind on water recently died, and requested that he be buried in a branch where the water would constantly run into his mouth. Dr. Hamilton can't understand why Dr. Bliss should receive more than twice as much as he and Dr. Agnew for attendance upon the late President Garfield. A correspondent of the Industrial South, published at Richmond,says that gold miners make by panning from one to ten dollars a day in Bucking ham county. Gorham, of the Washington Republi can wants the negroes of the South to pass around the hat for the benefit of John Brown's widow. Gorham shows his interest in the widow by asking the negroes to contribute. - Major J. C. Turner, formerly of this State, and at one time chief engineer of the W. N. C. Railroad, died April 24th at the residence of his son, Captain J. Caldwell Turner, at Clarkesville, in Georgia, in his seventieth year. Dr. Lamson, who was hanged in Eng land last Friday was in a very dejected frame of mind. We think if anything should put a man into a dejected frame of mind, the prospect of being swung into eternity on a rope would be calcu- lated to do it. A MISTAKE. It seems to us that Senators Vance and Ransom 'made a mistake in con senting to the confirmation of Mr. Coop er as collector of this district if they could have prevenuJ If, They proba bly deemed it good policy to refrain from further opposition tohs confirma tion In consideration of securing there by the committee of investigation they asked for into the administration of the office of collector under Dr. Mbit, but the investigation which might have amounted to something with Cooper out, will not, in our opinion, amount to much with Cooper in. Cooper may not do anything to defeat it, we do not say he will, but the very fact that he is in, the recognized friend and co-factional of Mott, will cool the ardor of the Re publican volunteer witnesses who were willing to testify as long as there was a probability of their testimony ousting the Mott-Cooper combination, but who will now hang back and only appear under compulsion, and then will tell as little as they can because their tes timony will do them no good and may hurt the party, in whose continuance in power they have an interest as well as Mott, Cooper and company. The in vestigation was moved on information furnished by the Republican faction opposed to these gentlemen, and they professed to be able to furnish the proofs of the abuses alleged, and from the indications manifested they would no doubt take a zealous interest in es tablishing the truth of their charges. But now mum will be their part be cause Mott being out, and Cooper in there is no longer the motive left of re moving the one or defeating the other. Their action in the premises was un doubtedly based on selfishness and not with a view to correcting abuses or purifying the service, but they were inside of the circle and were in posses sion, if we believe their assertions, of information which would have made the investigation interesting. How reliable the information they may have furnished, upon the strength of which the investigation was asked for, or how reliable their testimony might be upon investigation we have no means of knowing now, nor are we considering at present; but whether re liable or unreliable we think they will produce it very reluctantly, if at all, as affairs now stand. It may be that con senting to the confirmation was the only way in which the agreement to the in vestigation could be secured and hence the bargain, but if so, we believe the Republicans got the advantage in the swap. If political considerations had any influence with our Senators in the transaction we would have gained po litically by keeping Cooper out as long as possible and thus keeping up the fight between the factions, and keeping up the advertisement of each other which was being so extensively done. The confirmation of Cooper has brought the warring factions to a halt, restored peace in the camp, and the probabilities are they will all put their heads togeth er now to defeat any investigation that might "damage the party." Hi CONGRESS THE COURT OF APPEALS BILL ENGAGES THE SENATE. Mr. Perry Belmont, who had the bouf with Blaine in the ChilkPeru in vestigation, in a letter to Chairman Williams regrets the occurrence and the language used by him in the committee room, but inserts that anywhere else it would have been quite proper. We publish in The Observer to-day an interesting article from Mr. Atkin ' son, on cotton-growing, .which may be read with. profit by our, people. Every thing he may say on this subject is worthy of consideration, for he is com petent to speak, and is one of the few men who has given cotton a thorough study. -. We are in receipt of the first number of the "New South," "a progressive Democratic newspaper, devoted to the industrial and general development of North Carolina and the South," publish ed every Monday at Wilmington, by Edward A. Oldham, editor and proprie- . tor. It is a very, neatly and attractive ly gotten up paper and may be the l means of doing much good to the State, especially the section in which it is : published. . . Augusta Chronicle: The Blue Ridge Mountains have been perforated by a road through to Paint Rock. This is another reason why the A. & K should be extended to Spartanburg. The open ing to the; great West then, through Asheville. and Paint -Rock, is easy Once more we say to our South Caroli na friends and orators : "Let us remove our kid gloves, gentlemen, and let's to arms in fact, to spades and shovels." EXTENDING OPERATIONS. The Nihilists seem to be extending operations. The last dispatches from Europe announce the discovery of a mine under the Kremlin in Moscow where the Czar is to be crowned, (if that ceremony which has been so long defer red ever does come off), the Nihilists intending to participate in the celebra tion of that event by blowing the es tablishment and its royal and courtly inmates into the upper air, or some where else. This discovery Bpoiled their plans for innocent amusement. About the same time two infernal ma chines, one directed to W. H. Vander bilt and the other to Cyrus W. Field, of New York, were detected by the pre mature explosion of one of the ma chines in the mail car while in transit in New York, which probably saved the lives of one or both of the intended victims. After a few incidents of this kind these gentlemen will probably open their mail by proxy, and give pack ages a very wide berth. While crowns and great wealth have their fascina tions they have their drawbacks, for it is not an agreeable feeling for one to have to know that there are numbers of determined men banded together whose chief aim in life seems to be to make him the principal figure in a funeral procession. Dr. Boynton has published a card, endorsed by Mrs. Garfield, that Dr. Bliss was never placed in charge of the case of President Garfield, and that he had never been called at alL It is some what singular, then, that he should have been allowed to manage the case as he did. Gen. Gartrell, of Atlanta, has an nounced himself as an independent candidate for Governor, and says he is going to run in ;anr event, whether Stephens'consents to run or not. Gar trell evidently means business. Another lunatic has been arrested in England for threatening the life of the Queen. LATER ELECTION RETURNS. The Democrats in the House Defeat an Attempt to Limit Debate on the Tariff Commission Bill and Proceed with the Discussion of that Question. Washington, May 2. Senate. A bill donating a cannon to the . Morton monumental association, of Indiana, was passed and amended so as to stipu late for "cast-iron" cannon instead of bronze. - Cockrell stated that all bronze guns belonging U the government that were past use"ior original purposes had been disposed of. The Senate bill dividing Mississippi into Judicial districts and fixing times and daces of holding United States district courts in the Northern district was passed. It divides the State into Northern and Southern districts. The Northern district is sub-divided into Eastern and Western divisions, and two terms of district court are to be held each year at Aberdeen and Oxford. But one staff of court officers is provid ed for the Northern district, who shall officiate in both divisions of the court. The Senate then took up the bill re moving the disqualifications of ex-Con federates for army appointments. After brief remarks by Plumb, Maxey, Hampton and Call the pending motion to refer the bill to tne iudiciary com mittee was defeated. Yeas 23. nays 24 a party vote. Davis, of Illinois, voted aye with the republicans. The bill then went over. The House bills were passed appro priating 0175,000 for public buildings at Quincy, Illinois, and $250,000 at Peo ria, Illinois. Lapham introduced a bill proposing an amendment to the constitution pro hibiting any denial or abridgment of suffrage on account of sex. Referred to the committee on woman suffrage. The Senate resumed the considera tion of the unfinished business, the bill to establish a court of appeals. Morgan had read by the clerk a sub stitute providing ior a court oi zeaerai appeals. He said the substitute had been pre pared by a member of the District bar and he preferred its arrangement to that of the committee bill His plan would be to cut down the jurisdiction of the Federal courts and relegate ex traneous subjects to the State courts where they originally belonged. An increase of the Supreme Court bench would not, in his opinion, afford re lief. The project of an intermediate Ap pellate court he regarded as the only remedy, and upon this point he advo cated the provision of a substitute for, but one such court with ten additional judges, as against the proposition of the bill which he said created nine such courts and eighteen additional judges, or one court for each circuit, with the present district and circuit judges thereof, and two additional judges. Morgan further stated that he could not subscribe to the proposition of the bill that the present Judges shall sit as members of the appellate court. He asserted that some of the district judges were unfit for any such responsible po sition. Some of them had been mere partisan tools, and he preferred new judges taken fresh from the people rather than old fossils on the bench who had become indurated in the ser vice of party rather than of country. In this connection he criticized the rul ing of such judges in Alabama to show their alleged Ignorance of legal require ments and incompetence for their duties. He could never give his con sent to the bill if men of this class were to constitute the proposed court Butler submitted several proposed amendments to be printed. One pro rides that after the establishment of courts of appeal no appointments to the supreme bench shall oe made until the number of Judges is reduced to six. Garland and Vest also gave notice of amendments, and the bill was then laid over as unfinished business for to-morrow. Adjourned. House. Kasson, of Iowa, moved to go into committee of the whole on the tariff commission bill, and pending that moved that all general debate close Thursday. Kelly, of Pennsylvania, and Carlisle, of Kentucky, opposed any present limi tations to debate, which led Reed, of Maine, sarcastically to observe that the suffering would be very great if all the members desiring to speak should have no : On the Trail of the Indians.

Carlisle: "This is the most important measure before Congress." Humphrey: "And it takes up tnree times as much time as any other meas ure. Kelly: "So it did in the last presiden tial campaign ana so it win in tne next" Kandall, of Pennsylvania, moved to amend Kasson's motion so as to provide that the debate should close Saturday. Randall's motion was lost Yeas 89, navs The question was then resumed on Kasson s motion to close debate on Thursday, but the democrats refraining from voting the House was left with out a quorum. Kasson recognizing the uselessness of attempting to force a vote, withdrew his motion to limit the debate, and the House at 125 p. m. went into committee of the whole on theJTariff Commission bill. Herbert of Alabama, after an ex haustive speech against a high protec tive tariff, declared his opposition to the pending bill on the ground that it would not meet the needs of the coun try a speedy revision of existing du ties. Hewitt of New York, declared his intention to vote for the bill. Neither the House nor the committee on ways and means could undertake an intelli gent revision of the tariff at this ses sion, and it was beyond all controversy that the pending measure was in the interest of expedition and not in the direction of delay. He then proceeded to refute tne arguments oi xree tracers and asserted that while the present protective system needed revision it had proved a blessing wt tne people ana tne country. - '--'A' The committee rose and the bill was passed providing for the erection of a public building at Quincy, Illinois. It makes the present appropriation 8100, 000, and limits the entire cost to $250, 000. 'z A motion to take up similar bills v78s then made, but the regular order was insisted upon by Briggs, of - New Hampshire, who protested that the same States had been recognized by the Speaker four or five times, while other States had not secured recognition at all. - The Speaker announced as the regular order-the bill appropriating $75,000 for a public building at Hannibal, Mo.
