Waddell, of this city, yesterday showed us a cane pre sented to him in 1877. bv the late Commodore James Iredell Wadr dell, commander ol the famous Confederafe privateer "Shenan doah." The cane was cut at Ma acca, by Commodore Waddell in the fall of 1856, while attached to the United States Naval Squadron there on duty. The stick was placed away with other reJics, a.-.d during the late civil war, Cot' ;uodore Waddell, after destroying forty nine whaling steamers off the coaot of New Foundland, seized one of the ships containing a valuable cargo of whale blubber, oil arid ivory, se curing one of the teeth of a monster whale, he had the handle ol the cane made out ot the same, and presented the stick to Capt. F. N Waddell. lhe inscription on the gold band around the ivory handle reads: "James I. Waddell to Frat I cis N. Wadde!, Oet. 6th, 1877." The cane, proper, was carried around the world by the gallant commander of the famous Shenandoah, and Chief Waddell prizes it very highly. A Handsome 'Bus. The handsomest 'bus ever brought to the city, is that of the Grand Central, which arrived last evening. It was purchased a few ffteks ago in Cincinnati, by Mr. Sam CLedts ter, and the price paid for it was 6ix hundred dollars. It is made of the finest material throughout, aud was on exhibition for sometime previ ous to the purchase, at the Cincinnati-Exposition. On either side of the vehicle are perfect reDresenta-"' tions oi the old and new Grand Central buildings, aud the bridge connecting the same shows up ele gantly. The trimmings are very fane, and it is undoubtedly the mott elegant piece ot coach painting ever seen in Western North Carolina. Large crowds of people critically in spected the 'bus last night as it drove up m front of the hotel, and the general exclamation was, Isn t it a dandy!" "Charley" the big three hundred - pound colored sem en who sings i out: "Dis er way lur the Grand Cent'l" at all trains, was so happy that he forgot to collect the passengers' fares, and even relused a ten-cent cif.ar offered him by a drummer, in his glee. With new horses, new harness, and a new 'bus, the portly porter expects to create a monopoly in the transler business at once. The new 'bus is a beautv. At the Hotels.

This morning's list of twenty-one cases, with sixteen others reported up to noon, has again sent the people panic stricken in every direction. To-day's train wa3 well filled with refugees en route to the north, and to-morrow will be likewise. The hot, murky and rainy weather of the past week is now having its effect and it is thought the number of cases will increa e daily. The dis .ease also seems to be assuming a violent type and people are greatly alarmed. This noon lohn, Furchgott $c Berdict, the largest, dry goods house reinain'ag open, closed their doors and several firms in other lines did likewise. Groceries and drug rtores are the principal places now open'."" At 'the association meeting to-day strong mention was made of the need of good and experienced yellow fever nurses, and the commit tees were instructed to telegraph for such nurses, if, in the judgment of the committees, such nurses were needed. There are so many cases coming in that it will tax both phy sicians and nurses to the utmost. The gravity of the situation is now acknowledged by the most hopeful, as September, always a bad month, is approaching, and it is thought that new cases will then come up to big figures daily. At the meeting attention was also drawn to the fact that Jack Pollard, who had been taken sick at Boulogne, was turned back at Jacksonville with out any assistance, which act resulted in his death. It was urged that some provision should be made for the treatment of the sick at Camp Perry. A resolution covering this point was adopted, reading as follows : "Whereas, Citizens going to Camp Perry are likely to develop fever, and-a proper examination of such cases is a matter of vital importance, and the moving of such parties to the hospitals of this city involves a great and unnecessary risk to their lives ; therefore be it Resolved, That the surgeon general of the Marine hospital services be requested to have a suitable hospital established near said camp at tho earliest possible moment. To-day has been dark, gloomy, and rainy. Quite a number of the patients are critically ill, among them Mrs. D. J. Crowley, wife of the man ager of tho "Western Union office here, and Miss Minnie Bouse. Three or four have been discharged in the past twenty-four hours. There is no longer a shadow or. doubt that we have on our hands a regular epidemic. Thirtyfour new cases have been reported in the board ef heaiXir ior the twenty-fours end ing at 6 o clock this evening. I hey are principally in the central and eastern parts of the city, the infec tion apparently being carried by the southwest winds of the : past few days in a northeasterly direction. Among the cases are Mrs. Judge Mc Lean and two children ; Miss Lead, telephone operator; Mrs. Hopkins, stamp cle;-k at the postoffice, and J. II. Stephens, local agent or the sa vannah, Florida and Western railroad, who has stood at his post and is chairman of the railroad relief as sociation, and Fayette Dancy, clerk in the internal revenue office, iour deaths were reported for the same time, among them Hugh D. Roberts, A. IL Smith and sister, Rose De- Lima, of St. Joseph's: The citizens association passed resolutions to day requesting Surgeon-General IlamiK ton to establish a hospital near camp Perry and leading colored citizens to day organized an auxiiiiary associ- otion to assist the relief committee and help keep order. A strong reso lution was passed denouncing as false telegrams to several northern papers to the effect that the colored people of Jacksonville were lawlessly plun dering abandoned houses. These false reports were corrected two weeks ago by telegram by a committee of citizens, consisting of the acting ruavor, president of the board of health, president of the citizens' san itary association and the editor of the Time- Union. The colored people passed resolutions voicing their ap preciationof the eTorts of the citizens to relieve the distress of colored working people, thrown out of em ployment, but expressing the opinion that it will ba utterly impossible to sustain ths needy, and ; urging the importance of government aid in the matter. . Thev assert that ten thous and colored peop'e will soon he de- pendent on the relief committee, and that $10,000 per week will be requir ed to furnish them with the bare ne cessities of life. Judge Jones, of the coualy crim inal court, held court and sentenced nearly all the prisoners in iail who plead . guilty, to the chain gang, where they will work on the roads in the healthy parts of the county. Several cases of fever have ap peared in the county jail. With 8 few exceptions the min isters of the city are nobly at their posts of duty. They are nearly all on the relief cooamittees for the dif ferent wards. Prominent among them are Bishop Weed; Rev.. Dr. Weller, Episcopal ; Father Kenny, Catholic ; Rev. Dr. Dodge, Presby terian, and Rev. Mr. Sharp, of the Southern Methodist church. Sister Mary Ann is kept busy and all sis ters of St. Joseph's are eyer ready to nurse the sick and comfort the dying. ; All hopes of ending the epidemic before frost appears is abandoned and the citizens have resolyed to calmly and courageously coufront the situation and do their duty no tly. - Washington, D. C, August- 29. Burgeon-General Hamilton said to day in regard to the yellow fever in e Giti zen, 31 1888.

Flooded Out, Owing to the breaking of a water pipe in the new Grand Central building yet terdav morning, the Model steam laun dry in the basement of that building, was compelled to suspend operations ail day yesterday. Its floors were flooded with water and all of its machinery was stopped. Considerable damage is repor ted to have been done, the exact amount of which could not be ascertained. Work will probably be resumed at the laundry this morning. Rntherford County. Attorney General Davidson is in the city, resting after his participation in the campaign in connection with Judge Fowlo and Superintendent Finger. Mr. Davidson is a speaker of great force and ability, always fresh and vivacious, clothing bis thoughts and subjects in new and living words, and carrying with him unresistingly his audiences wherever he speaks. Ue is a power in this campaign, and a power we hope to see put to farther and wider use. Mis reputation for buth. candor and fairness is so firmly fixed here in the West here be is best known that Theodore F. Davidson secures credence and an influence founded upon the noblest of human qualiaes. But we started to say something about Rutherford. Mr. Davidson says that the speaking there was attended by ttie largest and most enthusiastic crowd be has met in the mountain for many a day. Judge Fowle spoke for two hours, Mai. r ineer followed in a sneech of an hour and a half, and what seemed to be "the shank of the evening," was left to mr. ua viason, yet "wniietne shades or night were falling fast" an eaecr and interested crowd of more than a thousand people hung upon his words Until his close. - r - Rutherford has always been classed as a Republican county, and its representa tion in the Legislature has generally been of the Republican faith . It is now believed, with good reason that it will giye a Democratic majority of fully three hundred. We Confess Surprise. Mr. Davis, whom Mr. Ewart is carry ing around ith him to "write hito up" in their canvas?, writes the A-LI. of this city that tor. Ewart stated in his speech at Mills River that Mr. Cleveland had recei ved Fred Douglas, a negro, at a social reception Now we aro not surprised at some ignorant fool ot a republican mak ing 6iK'ii statement, but for a man of Mr. i.wari'8 pretended decency and integrity t) make such statement we re surprised, lie knows it is not the truth. ana ne Knows ue nerer nearu it from a reputable source. No one ever charged Presidents Grant, Garfield or Arthur with ever receiving a negro at a social reception, neither of them did it, nor has Mr. Cleveland ever done it No one but a radical ever did receive negroes on such terms, but, no radical President ever did it. A his is as dirty a falsehood as that other shameless lie told by- the fel low whom the republicans have put up for the high and dignified office of Gov ernor, to the effect that Mrs. Cleveland kisses negro wenches. What can honest. decent white men, we cara not whether they be republicans or democrats, think of men wiiite men who stoop to such falsehoods ? Exagerations in regard to the official acts of political opponents may be overlooked in the beat of a campaign; hut to deliberately hatch np falsehoods which involve the social integrity of our own race is reaching a depth of political depravitv not to be tolerated with patience. We are surpris ed at Mr. Ewart Tlit Only l'trrtet Mtuuig For habitual constipation, dynpepsis, and kindred ills is the famous Ga-ilornia liquid fruit remedy, Syrup of Figs.

Notwithstanding the inclement weather, quite a large body ot our representative citizens were pres eiirat the meet inu of the Young Men's Dcmuciatic clul , at the court bouse, last night. The regular or der ot business was dispensed with, and Josephus Daniels, Esq., editor of the State Ch.-onicle, Raleigh ad dreiied the assembly in a very favor able and entertaining speech of about an hour's duration. Mr. Daniels handled the political issu of the day with the skili of a veter an, and his denouncement ol the Radical party and its misdeed?, was admirable and convincing. Mt. Daniels is yet a young man,- and judgiafcfron hi past, we are led to predict a mofct brilliant ami .use fui future for him. His ground in debate is always well chosen, and his arguments are nothing it not ogical and undeniable. He made happy hit at the courthouse las: vening, and lie lutly merited tne prai.se bestowed upon him by thoc who heard his very able speech. A Parrot and Monkey Time. The Republican senatorial convention of -this district we accidently learned yesterday, meets at Marshall on Satur day next to name either Mr. Hardwicke, Col. Lusk, Mr. Fox, Hon. A. H. Jones, Mr. Dolph Gudger or Mr. T. J. Candler as the nominee of that party. Of course we expect a parrot and monkey time of it, though the contest is said to be between Mr. Hardwicke and Col. Lusk, with chances ia favor of the Colonel, as the Asheville ring have decided that Mr. Lusk, ex district attorney, must ha.-e the honor, and Mr. Hardwicke, the young mountain boy must stand back. The Asheville ex-revenue ring desire to soothe Mr. Lusk for having been beaten two years ago by Mr. ox. Mr. Candler and others when an election was an cer tainty, and now they are determined to rash Mr. Lusk to destruction, if nothing else will please him Mr. Hardwicke and others, however, will be on hand to give animation to the scene. On Saturday week, 8th mst.. we are to have fun sure enough. The straight re- publicaniconvention of Buncombe county will then meet including these same bosses of the ex-revenue ring to nomin ate candidates for the various county offices. These bosses are making all sorts of appeals, and promises and pledges to tnose democrats wno voted indepen dently two years ago to come in then and join the republican party, but, great Heavens: how they do mistake the white men ol this count v. We white democrats can knock each other occa sionally on family matters, but, like the old woman and man when fighting and a neighboi undertook to interfere, turn ed and threshed the neighbor, we dem ocrats don't want any radical meddling with onr family affairs. We will fight among ourselves, but will vote the white man's ticket every time, and not go into conventions where the negroes are to do the yelling and name candidates who propose to turn rxorth Carolina ever to the party eighty per cent of whose num bers are negroej. We may look for a monkey and parrot time of it among our friends the enemy on the next two Saturdays. Mmelcltn't Jinuem Ifmlct. Thb Best Balvx in the world for cuts Braises. Sores. Ulcers.
