MERRIMON, OF WAKE. THE SIXTH DISTRICT. Next Wednesday. July 30th, pur suant to call, a convention of the Democratic party will assemble at Lumberton to nominate a candidate for Congress. The new district is composed of the counties of Anson, Brunswick; Cabarrus, Columbus, Mecklenburg, New Hanover, Rich mondRobeson Stanly' and Union, and these particular counties, as a district, have never been thrown together before. Ours is what is called the "shoe string" district, ex tending as it does from Mecklenburg, on the North,."along the Eastern bor ders of South Carolina, clear down to Brunswick county, which lies bor dering on the Atlantic ocean. So far as we know there are but three recognized candidates for the nomination: CoL R. T. Bennett, of Anson; Col. A M. Waddell, of New Hanover,, and A. H. Rowland, Esq., of Robeson There are about a dozen or jsq "dark horses" tied out in the buBhea," and each one hopes that the lightning may strike in his neighbor hood. CoL Bennett was elected from the State at large at the last election, but residing in the present district, if re elected he would represent, if re torne ef candidate fatlre -election.-' As between the candidates now in the field we believe he is largely the choice of the Democratic voters of Mecklenburg county, and if the delegation adopts the unit rule . Mecklenburg's ballot in the - conven tion will be cast for him, on the first ballot at least. For some reason we seem to - have adopted the rule to send . a man to Congress one term, and then by com mon consent re-elect him as an en dorsement. Thet custom - has been then to shelve that person and catch up a new man.. . JThis would, rule put Col. waddell, as well as Maj. Dowd, whom we understand will have some friends in the convention. - It would re-elect Col. Bennett (provided he is elected) and pave the way probably for Mr. Rowland, Or some other man, two years hence.

Jessions While Speaker. "JL respondent of the New York E&3d calls attention to the follow irr&jbints in Blaine's civil service record: ' I. - First. When Mr. Blaine was re elected Speaker of the Hous of Rep resentatives in December, 1 1873, he introduced the practice and set the example, afterward followed by Speaker Zeifer, of making up the standing committee on the, reform of civil service in such a manner that a large majority of its members were hostile to the reform. Among them was Ben Butler. The only Imember of the committee appointed by Mr. Blaine who was interested in tre re form was Mr. Willard, of Vermont. Second. Blaine's conduct as Speak er in 1873, as his professions now, met the hearty approval of his friend and admirer; Gen. Joseph R. Haw ley, of Connecticut. In an feditorial article in the Hartford. Courant, printed at that time, Gen. Hawley used the following language.1 "Mr. Blaine is most to be congratu lated in the adaptation of toeans to I an end in ine coubwtuuwuu yuo committee on the reform of the civil service. There can be nd : doubt about what that will do, iUongress being determined not to surrender its luuinfi? nnm"rpd nrivilee'e of select- -"J r- o . , ing the agents of the executive de partment, and being determined that oiVil nnnninf.mftnts shall be inade as reward for party service, and that tne tarce or tne reiorm oi vuo vivu service shall end." 1 .

A DOUBLE DISASTER. A Boiler Explodes, Kills Four Men and Wrecks a Train; Allennown, July 25. The rear part of the bouer of an engine1 draw ing a freight train on the ,Lehigh Valley Railroad, near White ! Haven today, blew out and killed four per sons who were riding on the engine. The victims are J. H. HasseL engi neer, Brakeman Hassel, son of the engineer, Fireman Armbruster and E. S. Smith, telegraph ; operator. Smith was night telegraph operator at Mescopec, and was riding Ion the engine to his hotel at White i Haven when the explosion occurred. The bodies of the engineer and fireman were found tern to pieces j in the woods a hundred yards from the wreck. The remains of Smith were found under the tank of the locomo tive horribly mangled. Thel explo sion occurred in a lonely place and nobody was left to notify tnej trains going in either direction. j Shortlv after the accident a loner train of coal cars ran into the explod ed engine. "The locomotive i oi the coal train was badly wrecked and covered with broken cars. Twenty cars were scattered in different direc tions and broken into kindling wood. Michael Green, engineer of the coal train,' was ; seriously and perhaps fatally injured. The rest of the ere w escaped by leaping from the tram. FROM EGYPT. - .

In this case the cotton crop! will nave to oe soia tnree months oeiore harvest, and at a sacrifice of 40 per cent below .the normal value. It is be lieved that the object or the Circular is to present to the Egyptianconfer ence in an effective way the existence of widespread misery in Egypt and thus lead it to acknowledge the neces sity of an important reduction of the rate of taxation.

Spreading OnUide of the Infected Dis trict Rongh Experience oi a Jt rencn Vessel. Paris. Julv 25. Isolated cases of cholera continue to be reported m various parts of France, some widely distant from the infected district. A woman living at Courberoie, a village four miles from Paris, was seized with sporadic cholera Thursday. She was at once conveved to the hospital and her lodging was thoroughly dis infected. JNo furtner cases are Deiieveu to exist in the community. "Two cases of cholera have occurred at Mar bonne, and at St. Nazaire, a village not far from Toulon, two deaths from that disease have occurred. One of these was a death -of especially pathetic character. - An unknown woman was seized with the dread disease while passing along the street. She fell prostrate to the ground : and expired immediately. A pitiable case is reported irom Marseilles, au oia woman of over 70 years was missing for several days. The police at last forced an entrance into her lodging. They found her body upon the floor in euoh a condition that j she must have been dead for some days. Ex amination proved that she was a vic tim of cholera. - She had lived almost exclusively on fruit. The corvette Argentina, wnicn was recently at Marseilles, desired to take on coal at Gibraltar. ; The English authorities there forbid this and threatened tQ fire unless the vessel at once departed. The Argentina thereupon ; proceeded to ; a port . in, Portugal and began coaling, out the inhabitants of the port became panic stricken and compelled the authorities to order the immediate departure of the unfortunate vessel. Where the Argentina is to find fuel enough to enable her te return to La Plata ap pears to be an insoluble problem. : ..' ; The Death Roll ip Toulon and Mar seilles. Paris, July 25. There were fifteen deaths at Toulon last night. . Five occurred in the hospital" three in the town and seven in the suburbs. It is feared that the stormy weather will increase the violence of the epidemic. Six nundred people nave leit Toulon within the fast two day3 for the Pyrenees. ' - ' ' The number of deaths at Marseilles last night was sixteen. Between 9 o clock and noon tnere was only one death from cholera at Marseilles. There' is a large falling off in the number of cases. Cholera Appears In Italy. Paris. July 25. In Virmihglia, Italy, there . have been ten deaths from cholera. ; s . i s:u. At Toulon two foolish vouths made a bet as to which could drink the most Seltzer water. One drank nine glasses and the other eight. Both died shortly after of cholera. In the debate in the Chamber of Deputies yesterday in regard to the French law relating to epidemics, Paul Bert described . France, after Spain and Turkey, the most back ward country in Europe, so far as sanitary matters are concerned. .The Condition Improving. 4 , PiRis.-July 25. Reports from Mar seilles and Toulon up to half past five this afternoon, show that the condi tion of affairs in those cities is steadi ly improving. The counsellors of Aries, who fled from the city on the approach of cholera, are to be prose cuted. . ' The Temperance. Apostle, Neat Daw) Vouches for Bldi'ne' as'a Maine-Law Man. -':': ; The following is a copy of a letter written by Neal Dow to the.. Rev, C. Clark, J r.i editor of the Home Visitor, a New Jersey prohibition organ ! Dear Sir: Your note of the 4th inst., has just reached me. In an swer to your inquiry I say : I have had many letters from different parts of the country making inquiries about Mr. tfiaine. Jkj.y reply nas been that he has always been a friend of the Maine law and has many times rendered important service to it. He is in favor of the proposed constitu tional amendment and will vote for i. He is also a teetotaler and has been so several years. . The Republican party of Maine, has always made prohibition a nart of its platform, and conceded to the people at the last Legislature an opportunity to vote on tne question ot constitu tional prohibition, as it is the un doubted rizht of the oeonle to do The temperance men of Maine, there fore, may properly be loyal to the party which has a just claim to their support. But outside of this State, "Vermont, Kansas and Iowa, the Re nuhlican party has no claim whatever on the temperance men for any help at tne Daiiot-oox. ;We, the temperance men of Maine. are firm in the conviction that our obiect--the prohibition and suppres sion ottheliauor; traffic can never be attained except by; independent! political action. The sooner that policy is resorted and vigorously pur sued the sooner we shall win. . , ( Very respectfully, HEAL DOW. Portland, Me., July 8,. 1884. - I Which Horn 1 the Dilemma?

The platform "says. "The. Republican party pledges itself to reduce the surplus." Blaine's "high-water mark" letter says we will not reduce the surplus, "Not a dollar has Wen wasted," and we will take care not a dollar shall be wasted if we once get our Mulligan fingers on tne magmncent tund.
