' , Among other amendments agreed to were the following : Increasing the appropriation for Savannah harbor, Georgia, from $90,000 to $200,000 and inserting the words "on the .project for securing a channel 28 feet deep at mean high water from Savaahah to the tea." (The latter part of tb amendment was opposed by Mr. tuunda on the ground that it Would commit the government to that projeq which was esti mated to cost $6,600,000 and it ;was advocated by Messrs.

There was more whisky .made in that country than the Senator from Vermont sup posed there was water in the Yadkin. Me. Edmunds read and commented on the report oi uapt. lsixoy, an army engineer, on the Yadkin? rivr, stating that it was not worthy of .im provement and that the people there were more anxious to have a passage way cut through hsh-dams (so as to let new get ip the river) than they were to have it. improved for naviga tion purposes. .

Mr. Reed, of Maine, declared that Mr. Kelly spoke for himself alone, and that the Republicans would in sist upon pointing-out the defects of the bill m debate. '. Mr: Breckehridge, of Kentucky, declared that the Democrats intended to have a vote: on the bill unless the fourth of March was reached before obstruction could be renewed. He challenged the Republicans to put their platform in the shape of a leg islative proposition and then take-a test vote between that and the pend inc bill, letting it go to the Senate, if passed by ihe House. He ;sug gested that the vote be taken at ttie end of ten days. Mr. Reed replied that he minority could not, pass i bill. It would be absurd to try it Mr. Springer, ;of Illinois, endeavored to have considered the resolution di recting the committee on waa and means- to report a date for taking the vote, but Mr. 3Kelly objected. , The House resumed consideration of the public land bill, the ayes and noes being taken on Mr. Holman's amendment retaining title in the Gov ernment to coal mines found on pub lic lands, but allowing entrymen to mine such coal deposits until Con gress acis further in the matter.

G, June 21 1688 I hear many discussions la'ely, in regard to several things that Win ston, as one of the great, progressive southern towns, is in immediate want of, and when these people, begin to talk they mean something. I bear the importance of a big hotel talked of. Not that Winston has not first class hotel facilities, f r she has, but What sfce docs want, in a hotel tbat will attract people here from all parts of the union. Our town can offer splendid inducements, not only as a summer resort, but a winter rescrt as well, but it will never becomo a point for summer or. winter pleasure or health seekers, until a hotel is built that will present all the feat ures, the convenience &c. of the most elaborate hotel buildings. Ibelieo Winston will be equal to tho require ments of the public in this instance. I repeat that we now have a splendid hotel in eharge of Col. Vickers, who successfully conducts the old Foun tain and Merchants' hotels,, and trav elers at all times meet with a good reception and are well fed at Lis ho tel. ) Another thing that is seriously talked of is a market house. Yes, Winston must have a market house. That is conceded. With a rapidly growing population, with a city's pro portions gradually and surely looming up, a market bouse is becoming a necessity. It is true that marketing is not hard to do here, for, living as we do, in a land of plenty, everything can be had at our doorB in the way of vegetables, chickenB, &c, but, in or der that there may be more system and safety, a market house is needed. Another thing and Judge Clark will say I am right Winston has a court-house that was built many years tgo, when her present Bize was hot even dreamed of. It was a large building then, but now it is too small for the town. It is too small for Comfort and too small to look well. But while Winston lacks those public conveniences, she possesses many ad vantages over other live towns, and the things she needs will come in good Ume. i; MrJ N. S.

Wilson was hanged in the Albion Orleans county jail this morning for the murder of his wife on the night of January 17th of last year, Th Times for Cleveland. Njw Vork Times Ind. The Republican party deserves more credit than it will get. we fear. for the nominations made by its con- 1 vention. - - - Altogether it is an entirely respectable nomination, it will not inspire the party. It will not strike terror in the hearts of the supporters of Mr. Cleveland--quite the, contrary. It will not, through any quality of the candidate, quicken to an unwonted degree the Republi can, pulse-beats. Plainly there is no magnetism in Mr.JHarrison. . If it will comfort any distant Repub lican, we can say unhesitatingly that Mr. Morton's qualifications are amplo for any duties he will bo called to perform in consequence of this nomi nation. But the people of this country wiil pass judgment upon the Republican party, not upon the Kepublican can didates. Were tbat party any longer worthy of confidence, had it not de parted widely and hopelessly from the guidance and the principles with which it won its early triumphs, were it actuated by an honest purpose to make the people of the Unitod States more prosperous and happy than its political opponents can make them, were its professions more sincere, its policies wiser and its leaders purer, the New York Timen might not find it a distasteful task to support the candidates, commonplace as they are, who were put in nomination yester day. But we have no faith in the party or in its leadership or .tenden cies, and we have only abhorrence for the monstrous policy of confiscating the gains of labor and the profits of trade by extortionate protective taxes which has become its only vitalizing principle. The maintenance of need less taxes for protection's sake is not and never waB a principle of true Re publicanism. It is the principle that has created and sustained a greedy horde of manufacturers who have bought the Republican party and shaped it to their uses. Meanwhile the Republican party, punished but impenitent, clings to the idols the voters have spurned, and again knocks at the door of the exec utive mansion, bearing in its hand the declaration that whisky should be free and clothing taxed, that the present protective taxes are sacred and shall not; be reduced shall be increased, rather if ways cannot be found in jobbery and extravagance to spend fast enough the accumulating revenue. The Times will not shame its con sistent record of more than twenty years-by counseling the opening of that door to these unworthy appli cants. For the working out of the reforms which the Times believes to be the chief issues of our politics the Dem ocratic party, with its; present candi dates, is the "bettor instrument" to use Mr. Tilden's expression. Ita can didates are incomparably superior to those of the Republicans, and the an nouncement of purposes with which lk Vt6rS 111 UUIXbtB IP . tory, and in respect to the dominant issue is firmly right when the other is hopelessly wrong. As regards civil Bervice reform, though we have had occasion to criticise the present administration for some of its errors and failures, we have greater confi dence in Mr. Cleveland's sincerity and fidelity than in written professions of a party whose leaders are unable to speak of the reform without a sneer, xne limes win give uieve iand and Thurman its hearty sup port, and will do what lies in its power, and it is not commonly an in active newspaper in a Presidental contest, to make their majority such that there will be no doubt about it the morning after election.

Hpwial to the News and Observer. Wilmington, N..G, June 27. The Domocratio Convention of the Sixth Congressional district met in this city today. In the absence of the chair man, Mr. J. I. Macks, a member of the executive committee, called the convention to torder. A permahont organization was effected with Mr. W. H.

Covington, and was nominated by acclamation, there not being a dissenting voice. Mr. Samuel J. Pemberton, of Stanly county, was nominated by acclama tion elector for the district. The following were chosen as an executive committee for the district: Messrs. ;J. JA, Lockhart, chairman, of Auson; Geo. M. McKethao, of Brunswick; R. S. S.

Tbe VTnite Pasha. Baltimore Sun. There is some question as to the identity of the- "white Pasha," whose arrival in the Bah El Gazel province of the Soudan is reported from the Suakim. There is a chance that it is Stanley, who must by this time have reaohed Emin Bey's headquarters at Wadelai. It is possible that he has learned from Emin' Bey that the power of the Mahdi a successor is trifling, and may be overthrown by a slight effort. It would be an attrac tive feat to such a man as Stanley to link his name with Gordon's by the recapture of Khartoum. Short of that, it is possible for him to do a great deal to strengthen the position of Emin Bey, who has announed his purpose not to be rescued, but to re main where he is with the people to whom he has become attached' Stan ley has with him about 500 men, many of whom are armed. He could not do better thau to turn this force to account by employing it to van quish any troublesome neighbors Emin Bey may have. Bundle Bey, who telegraphs from Suakim a con firmation of the reported arrival of a "white Pasha" in the interior Sou dan, adds the information that the Mahdi's successor is sending a force to oppose him. The event will be awaited with interest. The Festival Last Right. Notwithstanding many of the ladies were prevented from attending the festival of the Hose Reel Company by the inclemency of the weather last night, the occasion continued with unabated pleasure and in terest. There was a large attendance and all was merriment and gaiety. A band of music was present and a number of the young people indulged in the "light fantastic ". The voting- con tinued with interest. Judge Fowle is'still ahead on the cane; Mr. Roberts on the Democratic badge, while the contest for the silver pitcher to tho most popular young lady still lies be tween Miss DeCarteret and Miss Lum ley. The members of the Hose Reel Company were costumed in their handsome new uniforms and present ed a fine appearance. This company is an organization which takes a great pride in keeping up its tone, and the city; appreciates its value. The festival has bo tar proved a success in every particular and we are pleased to note it. We thank Messrs. Yeargan and Haynes for a delicious waiter of delicacies last night.

This transfer of funds has made necessary the reduction of the faculty of the University in cer tain special departmeats; ana a false impression may be made in regard to the effect of this reduction upon the general work of the University. The authorities deem it proper, therefore, to make a statement of the facts. It had been demonstrated by ex perience that there was little demand among our people for instruction in certain departments of the Universi ty, notwithstanding their importance, and the efficiency and zeal manifested by the professors in charge, and it was evidently the desire of the Leg islature that certain other special studies be taught at the Agricultural and Mechanical Co! lege" instead of at tho University. Hence, in the re-adjustment of the work of the Univer sity, the authorities have omitted the following special branches of study: pdagogics,Jornithology, metallurgy, mining engineering, feeding and breeding of animals, and practical horticulture, No diminution nor change has been made in any of the regular collegiate course of study. The University still has a large faculty, and offers full and thorough instruction in all general branches of study. Its faculty ' now consists of a professor of constitu tional and international law and political economy, a professor of mental and moral science, a professor oi matnematics, with an assistant, a professor of Latin, a professer of general and industrial chemistry, with an assistant, a professor of geol ogy and natural history, with an as sistant, a professor of modern lan guages, a professor cf Greek, a fully equipped law school, making a total ol nlteen professors and assistants. Although ; the chair of pedagogics nas , been abolished, yet a course of study extending through two years has been arranged for the special beneht oi students preparing to teach; and a special course of three months is offered, each spring, to teachers who desire to extend their education. The general, studies of especial beneht to farmers, merchants, manu iacturers ana otner business men, have been grouped into a small course of two years,: for the benefit of stu dents who are unable to complete full course. The completion of this course would be of great value to any ousiness man. Students of medicine will find at the University a short course of two- years, comprising such general stud ies as are oBsenuai io me education of a physician, and such special stud ies in chemistry, botany, physiology, 61 an mBuicfU""eonegvv.-' ovr-'fuuiug this short course at the University, they will not only receive the benefit of training in general studies at the University of their State, but will also save one year, at least, which would have to be spent at a medical college. Full particulars concerning these shoi ter special courses, as well as the regular four year courses, may be had by addressing the President or the Bursar of the University at Chapel Hill. 1 A. M.

Inealls was received by a member of the Kansas delegation to the convention; "Vice-Pbesidknt b Chambeb, Will. nfOTON, June 16 Yours 18th at hand. It does not make much differ ence who is nominated, in my judg ment. The candidates will cut but a mall figure in the fight. We can elect anybody or we shall fail. The , least conspicuous and therefore th least complicated man will be tbe best somebody like Hayes In 1876. Among all the men named there Is not one 'leader' no one whose per sonal or historical relations to, the people would mako a difference of 1,000 votes in the canvass. Sherman, Allison, Harrison, &o., have records that would be awkward on the tariff, the currency, the Chinese question, &c. Depew s connection with rail roads and corporations would be a heavy load, especially in the agricul tural States. We might as well nomi nate Gould or Vanderbilt at onoe. My impression is that Alger or Gres ham come nearer filling the bill than any of the others, with some fellow like Phelps, of New Jersey, who could reach the conservative forces of the Kast and get contributions from the manufacturers and Wall street. But you can judge much better than I what is best after consulting with the delegates, "I have the use of the wires during the convention by the courtesy of the company, and you can therefore tele graph me fully at all times if anything of interest transpires.
