Chicago, Oat. 18 There is no
change in the situation in the packing
house district this morning. The armed
guard now consists of 500 men. ' The
Armour firm now; has 800 men at work,
and began ' slaughtering cattle this
morning in a small way, but has not
yet attempted to commence operations.in
its pork-packing branch, and does not
expect to do so today.
LAtiK The great strike at the
stock ; yards is practically settled.
Delegate Barry, of the Knights of
Labor, has just stated today to a re
porter that he would hare an inter
view with the packers this afternoon
and; that he I would tell them that the
men were prepared to work ten hours
a day't as demanded 'by the packers. He
should use - every endeavor to have
the packers discharge all non-union men
they had brought in, but he would not
keep the men out, he said, even if the
packers refused to grant this. Armour
& Co. said 'they would not discharge
airy of the men they have brought in,
and., that as far as they are ooneerned
they feel almost independent of the strik
ers. They killed 600 eatttle yesterday
with their new men and expeot to kill
six hundred today.

the stirring town of Joneeboro last Fri
day. I A nionie and barbecue on a
grander scale than any one before held
in North Carolina was the programme of
the day and a grand dress ball eon-
eluded the festivities.
The rising sun of the 15 inst , looked
upon thousands or teams en-route for
Jonesboro from every, direction within
a radivus of. forty miles. By 11 o clock
an aaeembly of farmers and business
men seldom equaled in numbers was in
in the village, handshaking, discussing
the possibilities of tobacoo cultivation in
the.; section, talking polities, . oraoking
jokes &9.
Qol. L L. Polk, the peoples favorite
orator, made a Bpeeeh in his happiest
style and ; completely captivated his
hearers. A substantial looking farmer
remarked at the close of the speech that
"the vol. was too good lookmgand bad
too muoh sense for say one man."
Dihuer for over two thousand people
commenced at 1 o'eloek and lasted all
day, land heavy enroads were made into
tbe njountains of barbecue and roast,
and Stacks of bread and cakes all of
which was prepared as though it were
intended for a host of professional
eprfutes. Mr. W. E Merchison walked
alond the tables eneouraging the boys
to fall to and exercising both by preoept

ments for a barbecue, he is an entire

is the most oomplete building of tne

Sabine Pass early Sunday morning, and
found about 100 persons still living
there; reluctant to leave the site of their
former homes. They are occupying a
few houses that withstood the storm.
One-half of the food and olothing taken
up by the committee was distributed
among these sufferers, who were in great
need of everything. The remainder
was sent up to Johnson's bayou by the
barge Topsy, as the tide and channel
would not permit of the Estella'a going
up the river. The committee are unan

absolute destitution of the survivors.
They say they never saw such suffering

DISPLAY. j l
Yesterday afternoon the Governor
Guards made their first public appear
ance and to say that Raleigh was proud
of so fine a corps, but feebly expresses
the popular sentiment. The j company
marched to the square in rear c f the
postoffioe and there had a dresfjs parade.
On this oooafcion the oompany was form
ed as a battation. Capt E Jt. Engel
hard took command, Lt. D. 8. Waitt
acting as captain of the first oompany,
and Lt. Joseph F. Ferrall of the s oood.
Lt. John G. Williams aoted as adjutant.
The beautiful ceremonials of- dresi
parade were well performed, reflxting
special credit upon both officers and
men. The musio, by Jackson's silver
cornet band, was of course one of the
features of the parade.' After these
ceremonies had ended the Guard marched
up Fayettevuie street to the capital.
Forming in line at the. south entranoe,
the company was reviewed by Governor
Scales, the salute due him as commander-in-chief.
His exoelleney addressed
the oompany, saying: "Gentlemen of
the Governor's Guard: I cannot tell
you how great was my gratification
when 1 was informed that it was intended
to organise a company here, worthy to
represent the capital of this great com
monwealth. It but increased my grati
fication when' I was informed of the
name you had ehosen for your local
designation. I feel that in choosing that
name you have honored the state and
myself. I am proud of you, sincerely
prvud. You have a great duty and re
sponsibility always before you. Yon
are behind the civil power ; you are part
of the armed foroe of the btate
which when the civil power - fails
sttrDS in and savs "We will unhold
and maintain in all their integrity those
laws which the true people of this grand
old Nprth Carolina always respect and
revre. I am gratified at your soldierly
acDearacoe and I am Quite turo that
there is no finer looking body of men in
the btate. 1 thank you again for the
double honor, you have done me today.
Again I wish you prosperity as oitixens
and as soldiers of your State. I thank
you sinoerely."
Three oheers were given Uov. Scales
in return for these handsome compli
ments, and the oompany, leaving the
square marched to Peace institute,
where the handsome uniforms, figures
and faces put the fair pupils ixk a flatter.
The admirable style of the dress and
the thorough equipment of j the 00m
panv attracted deserved: attention. The
dark green uniform, was
relieved by the buff facings.

The canvass in Alamance oounty
opened Friday at Morton s and today
at McCray's. Col. T. M. Holt was
foroed into the field he could not keep
out without a positive disregard of the
wishes of the party and is making' an
earnest, able canvass. His style of
speaking is much more than ordinarily
impressive. He has that earnest, sin
cere manner that is 6aid to have marked
the speeches of Jefferson Davis while in
the United States Senate and gave them
such weight. His opponent is the same
as two years ago, W. A. Albright. In
our portion of the oounty Col. Holt is
somewhat blamed for the stock law, but
this will pass away as soon as the facts
are known. The S'ate wul have the
benefit of his services as a legislator
fegfein. io member has a better record
than he has made for devotion to the
best interests of the 8tate.
The old Sheriff, Hunter, was defeated
for the nomination. He has held the
office for fourteen years and had
rendered himself very objection-
alh to many democrats. Before the
convention he declared that he would
not abide by it, but intended to be
sheriff anyway. There had sprung up
great intimaoy between him and Gen.
W. R. Albright, of K rk war fame,
familiarly ki.own as "Red-Eye," and it
is thought that his influence had much
to do with Hunter's defying the con
vention. lHe (Hunter) is now in the
hands of the radicals and doing all he
can to defeat his old party. Some few
demtorats, or those who have heretofore
been democrats, will vote for him. The
general seems to be bossing his earn-
- - am a a
paign. The negroes renei.ea, dui are
being whipped in to, his support by
their radical posses.
he more intelligent ones, however,
refuse to be whipped in. They
seem incunea to minx ror inemseives.
The democrats are deserting him every
day, just as fast as they see that he is in
truth the radical ctn:idte. Of coarse
he has many personal friends, but those
of them whose democracy is sound are
dropping him. They know a man by
the company be keeps, tie dec lines to
tell who he is for or where he stands.
After all the jarty has done for him, it
is sad to see him desert to the enemy.
Joseph AT Hamilton,, the democratic
canauiaie, is one 01 tne oest men in tne
county, and wiil be the next sheriff. A
Tait, nominated for clerk of the superior
oourt, has no opposition; and Sam Mo
Lean, for register of deeds, has nearly
none; Bill Hudson, perhsps the leading
republican in the oounty, is tut
for" treasurer against Briee Fonville, a
one-armed soldier. He does not expect
to be elected but goes around to assure
the radicals that Hunter .is now with
them; and will bring his personal friends
to their support, and of eourse being a
oandidate- furnishes an exouse for his
being along. It is sad to see Hunter
and his special friends fraternise with
Gen, Albright and other leading radi-
eals, and together plot for the destruc
tion of the democratic party. Their
plans will miscarry. "Treason will be
made odious." D.

A Chicago special says the galleries'
and lobby of Central musie hall were
crowded to the utmost when the Pro
testant Episcopal convention opened Sat
urday, as it was known that the great de
bate on the proposition to drop the words
"Protestant Apisoopal" in designating
the church would close. The discussion
was opened Dy vt. Btringleuow, oil
Alabama, who argued for a post
ponement of the consideration of the
question on the ground that the time
was hot ripe. itev. Mr. btoddard, of
Northern New Jersey, held to the same
view. Mr. McConnell, of Louisiana,
bitterly opposed the proposition to
change the name of the church, and Dr.
Shemeid, 01 Virginia, took the same
view.
The debate was then closed by Mr.
Jucd, who contended that tie opposi
tion aid not represent the progressive
spirit which should :otuite the cuuron.
The church should take on its broad
and true name, and this was not to be
confounded with Romanism. Mr. Judd
spoke for twenty minutes, considering
the question from ail points, and when
the hour of 11 o'clock had arrived the
debate was declared elosed.
The balloting commenced amid; ab
solute silenoe. The Southern delegates
generally voted in favor of the 1 esolu-
tion and the .Eastern diooeses against it,
but nearly every diocese was divided
on the question. The vote was as fol
lows: Yeas, 112; nays. 185. The com
paratively strong rote in favor of the
proposition was a surprise to the con
vention.
Forty-nine dioceses voted, a majority
of the clericals in 17 diooeses voting
"aye." A majority voted "no" in 22
diooeses, and 10 diooeses were evenly
divided. In 44 diooeses the majority of
W delegates ,in 11 diooeses voted
"aye' and in 29 diooeses voted "no,"
wttile 4 diooeses were evenly divided.
The report of the joint committee on
liturgical, revision was submitted and
laid on the table to await the action of
the house of bishops. It is one of un
usual length, embodying numerous
1 memorials for a revision of the prayer
boor.
Ah Intelligent person when hurt will at
