Scales and the State officers elect takes place today in the City of Oaks, and it will bean interesting ceremony; one, too, in which those present will participate with a different, and we might say a better "feeling than on any of the similar occasions since the war, not that they hold the Governor elect in higher esteem than they did Gov. Vance and Gov. Jarvis, but the circumstances are different. In addi tion to a Democratic State govern- ment, we will have, on the 4th of March next, an administration at Washington in sympathy with our people, 'and not antagonistic,, as has been the case since the triumph of ; Republicanism in 1860. For the first time since then the sectional line has 'ceased to be a factor in the adminis tration of ' our national "affairs, and our people feel that the State they call theirs stands in the eyes of those vested with national authority on an equal footing with the States North of the imaginary dividing line. This is one of the results for which they have struggled for . years, and , in .which they bave at last,iu God's providence, been successful. : ; !' North Carolina has been singularly fortunate in the choice of her three last Governors ; in Vance, who led the attack that overthrew Radicalism in J.876, in" Jarvis, who succeeded him, and now in Scales, who succeeds Jar vis, all honest, big brained progres - 1 XT . Bivo me ii. viuv, vauco, truu uu seeing wisdom and progressive ideas, inaugurated the policy which lifted North Carolina from the ' weight under which she had been crushed and started her on the highway of prosperity. Gov. Jarvis, inspired by the same spirit and broad liberal views, followed in an administration brilliant with success, and now it re mains for Governor Scales to continue t.Vio Tovarlr thfiv Ififr. nnH arid tx t.ha beauty and errandeur of the structure, if we may so speak. , ' ' We predict here, that he will not disappoint the hopes or expectations of his friends, and that while he will be a careful and a prudent Governor; he will also be a practical and prog ressive Governor, and that at the end his term the people will look 'back with pleasure and pride to the inaug uration of today. - - ; - - Senator Zebulon B. Vance was yes terday elected by the unanimous vote of the' Democratic ' members of the General Assembly for another term in the TJ, S. Senate. The Republicans cast a complimentary- vote for Dn Tyre York. This i3 a proper recogni tion of the devoted patriotism, the eminefat services, and the universally recognized ability of our distinguish' ed Senator, of whom North Carolina is proud, and who is proud of North Carolina. . Thfl Rflnfttnrinl rvinfAsr. in Naw York revived the fact that Mr. Evarts once took a fee of $60,000 from Fisk Gould and other railroad men for short opinion, which was at the rate of $566 a word. But that didn't pre vent him from being elected Sena tor. ,-. THE PANAMA TKOUBLK. A Dispatch From Commander Lewis Clark and a Reply Made by the Sec retary i ibe Navy. Washington. Jan. 20. Tha Serve tary of the Navy yesterday received the folio wine telegram frnm fVm- mander Lewis Clark, commanding: me umieacaies finance, dated tfa nama, January 18: "Revolution in progress.

Act dis creetly in the interests of humanity and for the protection of American citizens and property but avoid tak ing sides in political . or military controversy." ; Another dispatch was received from Commander Clark this morning stating that the trouble is over and the force withdrawn. - SOMEWHAT MIXED. How an Auditor's Clerk Scattered Val uable Papers. , Richmond, Va., Jan. .Investi gation intothe condition of the Audit or office continues to develop new irregularities and carelessness, par ticularly on tne part of William R. Smith, clerk, who has been under Hrrmr, 1 1 ii artrvta t i rv r. mm.. I , with embezzlement, and since his arrest he has been allowed several times to go to the Auditor's office, and has brought to light papers cov- ering the value of about $30,000,- and today a valise was delivered up by his wife containing other papers in ' the shape of remittances from the clerks of the various courts of the State, covering about the same amount. These papers Smith had taken to his home to work up and arrange and they had there remained neglected. What this looseness in the management of the, Auditor's office will amount to cannot be positively stated until the investigation is ended. A Damaged Steamer. London, . Jan. 20.

The House Devotes the Dar to Eulo- gies on South Carolina's ueceasea Representative, Erins. , W ASTnwnTON. Jan. 20. SENATE. Colquitt presented the credentials of Joseph E. Brown, re-elected Senator from Georgia for six years from the 4th of March next. They were re; ferred to the committee on privileges and elections. , '- At 2 o'clock -the Senate resumed consideration of the inter state com-; merce bill The House bill tne ttea- gan bill, so called having already been in the Senate read twice by title and placed on the calendar, was now : taken from the calendar and read in full. The question nerore ine Senate was. on motion of Cullom heretofore made to strike outaii aitor the enacting clause in the House bill and insert instead the several pro visions of the commission Dili aireaay debated and agreed to in the Senate. The latter bill was now also read in full. Beck spoke for somo time upon the pending bills and in the course of his remarks moved to amend the House bill by striking out from the first section the provisions regarding discriminations in passenger accom modations and discriminations on ac count of color. This would leave the bill, he said, in the condition in which it had been originally brought into the House by Judge Reagan. Beck said he would also move to amend the House bill so as to prohibit rail roads from charging more for con veying freights over part of their lino than they charge for carrying them over the whole length of their line. ' . 'ti- - Maxey said the question now was on one hand whether we should have a commission to supervise railroads, or, on the other hand, should pass laws for their regulation and leave all infractions of laws to be dealt with by the courts. With regard to the constitutional right of Congress in the premises, as strict a State rights man as he (Maxey) was, he recognized that Congress had such right, but he opposed the proposed5 commission, and with regard to the House bill he thought that any measure of railroad regulation must necessarily be tenta tive. The power and wealth of rail road men . were increasing dangerous ly fast. Almost every railroad in Texas was under the control of Jaj Gould. As between the House and the Senate bill Maxey favored the House bill, believing that the commission would do no good. Coke rose to address the Senate on the bill, but yielded to a motion to go into executive session. A message from the President was laid before the Senate transmitting information relating to the foreign commerce of Mexico, Central and South Amerida, the Spanish West In dies, Hay ti and San Domingo and the share of the United States therein. The Senate then went into executive session. After fifteen minutes the doors were reopened and the Senate adjourned. House. On motion of Chase, of Rhode Island, it was ordered that four o clock tomorrow be assigned for the consideration of the resolu tions on Senator Anthony. Oates, of Alabama, from the com-, mittee on public lands, reported a bill prohibiting aliens and foreigners from accquiring title to and owning lands in the United States. Placed on the House calendar. Hewitt, of New York from the committee on ways and means, re ported a bill amending section 3019, revised statutes, so that it will read as follows: Section 3019 There shall be allowed on all articles wholly manufactured of materials imported on which duties have been paid when exported. a drawback equal in amount to the duty paid on such ma terials and no more, to be ascertained under such regulations as shall be presented by the Secretary of the Treasury, and all the provisions of the law inconsistent herewith are hereby repealed. ; Referred to com mittee oi the whole. 1 After some opposition from Single ton, of Mississippi, and Willis, of Kentucky, who desired respectively to bring up Congressional library and eductation bills, the House, at 12:25, went into committee of the whole. Wellborn, of Texas, in the chair, on the Indian appropriation bill. Ellis, of Louisiana, explained the provisions of the bill which appropri ates $5,664,135 or $1,863,914 lees than the estimates, and $195,000 less the amount carried by the bill for the current year. In the discussion of the bill which followed many of the cAiBiiug prooiems in connection witn the affairs of the Indian race, and the disposition of Indian lands were brought up. f Pending further debate the com mittee rose, and the public business oeing suspended, tne House proceed ed to pay - a fitting tribute to the memory of the late J.

It would commence In small white spots, which had a silvery appearance, but were not deep, but If I attempted to heal them, or soon after their first appearance, they would burn and rnn together until there was 4 complete dry, red scale, which would become so Inflamed as to crack and lock fiery and angry, and the burning sensation would be al most Intolerable. I was at times so lame that I could scarcely get about, and could uot dress myself without assist ance. I have tried many remedies, and have paid $100 in a single instance to a physician, but have ever obtained only temporary relief. - Although helped for a time, I soon relapsed again to be as badly troubled as ever, and during the winter of 1881 and 1682 1 suffered so much as to be entirely discouraged. Last June, however, I was advised by Elder and Mrs. L. C. McKlnstry. who are well known In these regions, to try your Cutioura Remedies; and I felt somehow a little coufage, from their opinion of them, to try their virtue. About the second week of July last! commenced taking the remedies, and within six weeks I began to see a permanent Improvement, until now (Oct 1) I am about as good as new, and my flesh is as the flesh of a child.
