I NEW8 OBSERVATIONS.
' The most singular and disappoint
ing thing about the English elections
thuH far is the failure of the Irish vote
to accomplish the results expected of it.
It was claimed that at the preceding
election the Tories gained at least eigh
teen seats by the aid of the rotes cast
for them at the direction of the Irish
leaders;. It was believed that these
eats could at the present election be
captured by the Oladstonites, but thus
far the Tories have with apparent ease
held the majority of them where elec
tions have taken place. This fact is ac
counted for by the supposed abstention
of English Liberals from voting. It
certainly would be an astonishing thing
If the Irioh voters in England should
display lukcwarmness in the- Liberal
cause.
-t Tho appearance of Mrs. Gladstone
in the present parliament will go down
to history as one of its notable features.
Hex devotion to the cause of her hus
band will compaic more than favorably
ith that of the beautiful Duchess who
gave kisses for votes for Fox. There
may be other instances where women in
England have taken in active part from
the rostrum in political contest t, but if
4(0 we fail to recall them. Certainly the
wife of a prime minister has never be
fore dote f o. , The wife of Disraeli was
so wrapped up in the successful career
if her "lord and master as to ride some
distance: without complaint with her
finger Crushed in her carriage door
rather than disturb his meditations on a
speech be was about to make, but, this
scarcely comes in tne same category
With Mrs. Gladstone's services.
The strangest story of the year
conies from Bound Brook, New Jersey.
One of the citizens of the village was a
man named Hebron. TLree months
tgo his-wife died.j but before expiring
she obtained a promise from her husband
that he would not marry a second time.
But in six weeks he took unto himself
a buxom widow. Soon a change oame
over Hebron. He seemed ill at ease
and appeared to be haunted by some
terrible secret One night he arose
from a troubled sleep to watch the burn
ing of the Episcopal church in Bound
Brook.: Suddenly, watching the flames,
he started back with an exclamation of
horror' and, in spite of all his wife could
do to arouse him, e appeared as though
held by some strange fascination. Then
he ahrankfback, placed Tiis hands before
L1b eyes as though to shut out some
horrible vision, all the while trembling
in every limb . He called npon his w i fe
to see te spirit of his dead wife, which
had come to haunt him, and remind him
pf the broken promise he made her on
her death bed. He also declared that
she brought an army of ghastly creatures
to end bis life ten thousand devils,
who jeered and jibed at him. He then
fell to the floor in a dead faint, From
.that time Hebron believed he was a
doomed man. His dresms were hide
ous, and his wakeful moments frightful.
One morning he caiue to some of his
friends with a countenance more ghast
ly than ever, and told them of a dream
he had had during the night, lie said
he thought the skeleton of his first wife
lay beside him, and when in terror he
sprang from the 'bed, the specter fol
lowed him. At length it pinioned him
to the wall with one of its loner, chastlv
Hermit House pf RaleiA us we .wood ooe
.floor. Then; he said, the specter licked
up his flowing blood, screaming: "So I
Stop the vitality of my false husband!"
This story convinced Hebron's friends
that he was insane, and they were tak
ing steps to place him m the asylum
'When one morning ot last week he was
found dead in his bed. He died from
fright.
-Wonderful originality is displayed
jn the production of parasols designed
for every occasion, from the sombre
crape-covered - parasol for mourning
dress, to the brilliant red satin ones for
the -taces, ' decorated on the outside
with -kruni ing horses, fox-hunts, and
various episodes in animal life. Ibis
article of comfort and convenience
should: always be neat and plain, rather
than gaudy and eccentric,- and ought
always, if possible, to harmonize - with
the dress with which it is worn, and
seem in reality a simple, necessary part
of the toilet, rather than an article of
display, like a; banner or a flag. A
parasol may well serve as an indication
of the general good sense and cultivated

. Washikotok, D. C, July 6 Si-mat:.
The Senate took up the bill to
secure to the Cherokee freedmen and
others their proportion of certain pro
ceeds of land. Mr. Ingalls, from the
committee on Indian affairs, reported a
substitute for this bill. (It appropri
ates $75,000 for the purpose and directs
how the amount shall be distributed.)
The substitute was agreed to and the
bill passed.
1 he Senate then proceeded to con
sider the amendments to the river and
harbor bill.
The first amendment that was ques
tioned was the item appropriating ft 150,-
000 for the purchase . of Sturgeon bay
and the Lake Michigan ship canal as
a harbor of refuge.
Mr. Ingalls made the point of order
that the paragraph was new legislation.
This was not a bill to buy canals. It
Was general legislation not connected
With the bill. ?
The chair over ruled the point of or
der, holding that as the amendment was
eported by the committee (of commerce)
and in pursuance of an estimate, of the
eadof the war department it ; was in
order.
Mr. Edmundsmade the new point that
this was a commercial transaction that
had nothing to do with the grand scope
of this bill which was for improving
rivers and harbors. It was therefore
irrelevant. : The chair submitted the
ucstion of relevancy to the Senate and
tbe amendment was decided to be rele
vant and in order; yeas 31, nays 9
The amendment was discussed until 5.40
O'clock without being disposed of.

session and afterwards adjourned.

Mr. Taulbee, of Kentucky, called up
the report of the oommittee on invalid
pensions upon the message of the Presi
dent on the bill granting, a pension to
Carter W. Tiller. He disavowed any
purpose of criticising the President in the
exercise of his constitutional right pr
of raising any war on his method or
style in the veto of pension bills. He
then proceeded to state, the facta in the
case, to show that the President was
acting under a misapprehension when
be based his veto on the gioUnd that
the claimant was not dependent upon
his son, on whose account the pension is
claimed, for support. He also quoted
from affidavits to show that, while it was
tsue that his son was borne on the rolls
as a deserter, the charge was made

t-The disease oommonly known as
"hollow horn" has no immediate con
nection with the horn, as animals with
out horns manifest the same symptoms.
The disease in question is the result of
inflammation, extending from the mu
cous men brane lining the nostrils into
the sutures of the skull and horns, there
being a direct communication between
these parts Debility, improper and
insufficient food, exposure and other
causes that tend to weaken the By stem,
may give rbe - to this condition. The
treatment must then be such as to coun
teract this deficiency and should oonsist
mainly of good nursing. Keep the an
imal in dry, warm, well ventilated
Quarters; pay particular attention to
carding and brushing; give nourishing
food, and a little physic is necessary

ous, and is to i placed in the same cat

against him while he was confined as a
prisoner in Andersonville prison. He
admitted that the President had acted
honestly upon the facta before him; but
that since the veto, additional facts had
come to light Bhowmg young Tiller s
hospital records at Andersonville.
Mr. Warner, of Missouri, inquired
whether these additional records had
not been accessible to the President.
Mr. Taulbee replied that the records
were accessible to anybody who would
take the trouble to go to the war de
partment and search over the musty
prison records of the Confederacy, but
the President h&d acted on I the written
statement of the adjutant general that
there was no such record 'found in his
office, subsequent to the veto, 'the record
was found, but the veto could not
be withdrawn.
Mr. Beach, of New York, suggested
that it would not be proper for the
House 1 to override the veto on the
strength of facts' which the President
did not have before him at. the time he
ithheld his approval from 'the bill.
The proper thing to do waslto introduct
a new bill.
Mr Matson moved that the further
consideration of the matter be postponed
till: Friday next. For a few I moments
there was much confusion in the hall,
Mr. Matson and Mr. Willis vainly en
deavoring to state the reasons why they
desired the postponement and the Re
publicans demanding immediate ac
tion on the motion to post
pone; agreed to yeas 117, nays
113. The morning hour having
been dispensed with the House went
imo committee of the whole (Mr. Ham
mood in the chair) on the general de
ficiency appropriation bill.
The ena of 'the bill haying been
reached, the oommittee in accordance
with a previous arrangement, reverted
to the paragraph relative to the State
department.
Mr. Cannon offered an amendment
appropriating $37,608 to meet deficien
cies in salaries of ministers and charges
d' affaires. Agreed to.
On motion of Mr. Belmont, the ap
propriation to supply deficiencies in the
contingent expenses of consulates for

motion of Mr. belmont, amend
ments were adopted appropriating va
rious small sums to meet special defi
ciencies in the consular service. The
oommittee then roBe and reported the
bill to the house. The first vote was
taken on the amendment for the pay
ment of the Old Colony and Paoifio

Wasbis(Ston, D. C, July 6. The
Senate has confirmed the nomination of
Hugh 8. Thompson to be assistant sec
retary of tlhe treasury and II. J. Winn
to be postmaster at Birmingham, -Ala.
The President today nominated Fits
John Porter, late colonel 15th infantry,
to be colonel in the army of the United
States.
The ways and means committee today
ordered an. adverse report to be made
on Mr. Randall's tariff bill.
Mr. Kelly moved to strike out all out
the administration features of the' bill
(the Hewitt provisions) but this motion
was lost although Mr. Hewitt voted
with the i Republicans! Messrs. Reid
and Hiscockwere absent.
A motion was then made to report
the bill adversely, and upon the roll
being called all of th a Democrats voted
in the affirmative, thus carrying the mo
tion. The Republican members: ab
stained from voting on the ground that
the bill contained meritorious features
along with ; objectiouable provisions,
which could vpt bo disassociated.
Under motion MrrMorrison will pre
sent an adverse report on the bill, whilo
the Republicans will not makn a report.
The committee also authorized Mr
Breckenridge to report adversely on
Mr. Fin ley's resolution declarine it to
be the sense of the House that the reve
nue tax on tobacco should be removed.

to North Carolina if not to other read

ure vrhich provided for an appropriation
of $.03,500 for the entertainment of
guests, music, construction of platforms
etc. I he vote by tellers was ayes 90,

nays having been sustained the question

benefit. The ballot stood: yeas 103,

ber of the ' North Carolina delegation
who voted aye. Hewitt insisted at first
oii a quorum voting on the motion to j
reconsider and lay that vote on the ta
ble, but finall after the House had re
fused to adjourn, withdrew the point
and permitted the Judge to keep the
appropriation entirely out of the bill.
Spirit of tha State Pras.
Mr Morrison moved last week an amend
ment to ihe rules of the House so as to
permit the House to attach to every
pension bill a clause specifically setting
aside or levying a tax to meet the ap
propriation provided for. The prin
ciple is so just that it should be applied
not only to pension bills, but to appro
priations of all sorts. The fundamental
cause of the extravagance of Congress
is that people fail to associate the idea
ot taxes witn ieaerai appropriations.
If this very: hard fact were brought
home to them, much demagogy which
now is often profitable would be impos
sible and many abuses would be re
formed. The specific fund with whioh
it fa proposed to meet the pension bills
is an income tax. 1 here are so many
reasons why there is both practical
and poetic justioo in this that iit is to
be hoped that the Democrats in Con
gress, in dpi te of the lateness of tbe
session, will force the fighting upon
both of these lines until they become
distinct party issues Shelby New
Era.
We of the south, it is true, some
time have loved another flag and
beneath its spotless field and starry
union, in battle and blood shed, have
defied the National emblem and an

but none : the less oan we rejoice
in a unioh made stronger by the

In your paper of yesterday, is a
communication entitled "Anew enemy
to cotton."
The enemy referred to is not a new
one by any means. In just such wet
seasons as have prevailed during the
past June, lice have been great pests to
the cotton crop for years past. They
belong to the family of insects called
aphidal, or plant lioe. The eggs are
laid in the fall and hatched out in the
spring, when the young seek the under
sides of the leaf and the tender shoots
and live bv sucking out the iuice of the Shiga, "7 dze and weight. Sterling Silver
plant. They multiply with exceeding
rapidity, after they are hatched, with
out impregnation and bringing forth
their young aiive. The reproduction
of the family of aphid is one of the
many marvels of biology.
Ihe only remedy is the one usually
provided by nature at this season
(though all laws seem to be violated
this year) hot, dry weather, which
gives a vigorous growth to the plant
and encourages other insects, ants,
bugs, &tj. , to feed on the plant lice. At
this time these inseots are causing great
damage to the cotton crops of Halifax
and Edgecombe counties. In many
places, acres have the appearance of j
having been struck by lightning, and
from present appearances oan produce
but little cotton. R. H. S.
