On the 24th, the Hoq. Ai M. Wad dell, Democratic candidate for elector for the State at large, was returning to Ra'eigh from his canvass in the western part of the State,;he heard that VNiohola and Purnell were with as" and he decided to stop off in Ala mance and see what -he: coijild do for th good old Democratic party. Col. Waddell arrived here at 11 o'clock a. eel on Monday and placed himself in the hands of the' executive committee of Alamanoe County. The committee had handbillst printed and sent all over the county at once. After the handbills tad been circu lated, the chairman of the Republican executive committee and several lead ing Republicans, called en Col- Wad dell and stated that JaiesBoyd, Esq , desired to address J the citizens of Alamance on Mondayvevehing and asked that he, Col. WiddeH, meet him at onee. Col. WadelJ replied that he had placed hiinself in the bands pf the executive c&tumittee and the committee bad made - an appoint ment for him to speak on Tuesday, the 25;h, at 10 o'clock, nd; that he Would be glad to uitet Mr.jBoydin debate at that time, which Ui- Boyd declined. Boyd then told it around that he wanted to speak but that he could not get a Democrat to meet him. Thereupon J. A. Iovg, Esq., who has been doing soma good work for the Democratic paity jn old Ala mance, sent Mr. Boyd word- that he (Long) would meet him in the Court House , and disc ass the issues of the campaign with him as long as he pleased; whereupon Mr J; Boyd de clined again, and Baid that he would just be d d if he were going to make a speech on Monday, Tuesday or any other day. . f. ,' So, you see, Mr. Editor, it was all "gas" about Boyd's wanting tb meet the eloquent Waddell. They did not ask it until they knew the JaaudbillB were all out and that the appointments could not be rescinded for the people had all, or nearly allf: returned to their homes. ' Bat Long was ready to meet him, and Boyd declined. Jim dodged these Democratic speakers. He is not anxious to be made deathly sick to have the black voniit. He told on LoBji when Holden paid him the $250, and he is now uneasy lest Long tell on him. By 1 O'clock today the Court House was filled to overflowing and Chair man Chaa. E. McLean introduced Col. Waddell, who held his hearers for an hour and forty minutes with'; one of the finest tariff speeches thiij writer ever heard. I wul not attempt to de scribe his speech, bat will J Simply saj that he made more than one vote for the Democratic party. S; i Nichols and FarneU spoke tn tne Knight ? of Labor Hall at Glencoe Cotton Mills last night. T. Bl Wom ack. Emj, of Pittsboro wan present nd asked for s division of time, which was denied him. When Nich ols, and Purnell had finished sneaking Mr. Womack told the crowd that he had asked Mr. Nichols for a division of time, which he had;decled to grant. The Democrats present, there fore, took Mr. Womack and .carried him off to another place and had him to make;' them a speech. Nichols' whole crowd followed Womeft and the latter made them a good speech. Nichola and Purnell went to Mor ton's Store today, their , next appoint ment, but there was no one present, so they did not make speeches! Mr. Womackj was with them. Their, next appointment was for OssipeeSDptton Mills tonight, but Nichols and Pur nell have crown tired of the eapvaes and have abandoned thair appoint ment, not going taOBSipee bat com ing to Burlington instead aid will doubtless go home on the freight to night Nichols looks sicks, vew eiek. Gol. Caldwell will be at Burlington tonight, and should Nichols and Pur nell attempt to speak we hope'fcome one will kindly inform Col. addell of tbo f apt, so that he may be present and reply. ?! f PROCEEDINGS YESTERDAY IN, SENATE AND HOUSE! ; THS MATTKB OF IHQDtSTS CHDEB FEPLBAL .

He has always been a Republican, and always since fac tional divisions appeared in the party, a 'Stalwart In 1881 he joined m the Anti-Blaine circular issued by Mr Oonkling's friends in Oaeida county. Since the Chicago convention it hss been claimed by the local Republican managers that Dr. Watson would probably not take an active part in the canvass but would probably voU for him. This idea is now disBip&tto by a ring ng declaration which th Doctor makes today. In submitting for publication a letter recriyed H) him fro n George A. Gorhain, in which the letter show that Harri son's election means Blaine for Secre tary of State, Dr. Watson write: "It furnishes to my mind conclu sive evidence that in the event, of the election of Gen. Harrison, James O Blaine will be made Secretary of State, and will be the controlling pOwer of his administration. I can never assist in the elevation to place and power of the "political assassina tor" of Roscoe Conkling. United to transcendent abilities the distin- juished characteristics of Mr. Conk ing were truth, unsullied and incor ruptible integrity, courage and un flinching loyalty to his friends. The great statesman now sleeps beneath the green turf of yet early autumn in the beautiful Forest Hill Cemetery of the city which was his chosen home, and over the object of his love; but he is not dead; his character and political sentiments and Opinions have left their lasting impress upon the minds and hearts of his devoted fol lowers in both the State and nation.

I ascertained that , he had had a chill yes terday afternoon, followed by fever. I would not have attached anj special importance to his condition except that he had been exposed within the past twenty days at Decatur, Ala bama. I would dislike very much at this early stage of his illness to diag nose his case. The nature of his flickness caanot be , determiued for from 21 to 36 hours." Dr. Mitchell wits medical director of the Howard Association of Memphis during the epidemic of 1878 and 1879, and was n member of the National Board of Health. Mempjw, Tenn , Sept. 2G. Dr. Mitchell, who visited Hinford at 9 o'clock this morning, found him free of fever and unhesitatingly pro nounced his sickness of last evening, which created such excitement, only the after-effects of a big drunk. There is no excitement here since the true facts of Binford's illness have been made public. Washixgtos, feept. 25. Surgeon J. W. Ross and Assistant Surgeon Wm. Martin of the Navy have been or dered to report to Surgeon General Hamilton of the Marine Hospital Bu leau for service in connection with the yellow fever epidemic. They have each had experience in the treat ment of yellow fever cases and each volunteered his services in the pres ent instance. Surgeon Ross will be placed in charge of the government service at Fernandina, Fla , and As sistant Surgeon vartin will act as as sistant to Surgeon General Hamilton in Washington for the present. Jacksonville, Fla., Sept. 26. Only 9 new cases were reported this after noon, and one death, that of Carl Johnson. This is one of the brightest and most pleasant days of the season and is cool and refreshing. The hope ful feeling of the people continues and the belief is becoming general that the epidemic will soon tun its course and be numbered among the things that were. A cordon has been thrown around the city to prevent the ingress of paupers,and the bridges over Trout creek, on the Fernandina road, are closely guarded.

It was highly amusing. It was as good as a first class minstrel show. I refer to the Republican county convention that met here today. The convention met in the Court House and was called to order by J. 1'. S.aunon, a chronic, neyer-did get - there office-seeker. There was cnnsiderable wrangling and confusion before the meeting got into good working order. Mr. John Reynolds, ofWaughtown, and a brother of Mr. C A. Reynolds, was nominated for the legislature. Dr. Teague was nominated for sheriff. Sheriff Hoyer beat him last election. J. P. Staun ton was nominated for register of deeds. Capt. Mast beat Staunton last election, and will do so again, as easy as falling off a log- Young Lin ville was nominated for treasurer. A man by the name of Stipe, brother to the much talked of Andy, offered a set of resolution?, endorsing the Republiean party, its platform, etc., and also' endorsing J. M. Brow er's vote on the Mills bill. This was too much for Charlie Reynolds, who, as one of the party leaders, is greatly opposed to Brower on account of his vote. Stipe wanted his resolutions voted on, and in the midst of a red hot discussion, Jim Boyd came in and the convention adjourned before Stipe's resolutions could be read. Stipe tried to be heard, but the meet ing would not have it. One of the amusing things of the meeting was a speech made by a negro, who used the most high-founding words of his own manufacture. He specially de sired newspaper reporters to quote him correctly, but I will not attempt such an absurdity. Jim Bovd is now addressing the convention. Mr. Pearson s meetings are crowd ed night and day, and great interest is being manifested. People of all classes and denominations are profuse in their praise of the great evangelist, and every minister in town, without a solitary exception, shows the great est interest in the meetings, and all participate in. them. Mr. Pearson preached today in the chapel of the Salem School to the young ladies of that institution. Astounding developments, it is said, will soon be made here in the matter of noma railroad schemes. People are anxious for a big hotel here, and capitalists are figuring on the proposition. The corner-stone of the new Mora vian church will be laid here tomor row afternoon. Gxw. RIO GRANDE. THE SITUATION AT THE CITY ON THE BORDER. Henry Cljr th Tar I IT.

One of the most interesting fea tures Of the Convention of Homeo pathic Physicians is the completion by Dr. R. B Weaver, demonstrator of anatomy at the Homeopathio Col lege, of a piece of work which has oc cupied his close attention for six months. It is a comnlnte pinoae of all the nerves of the human body, ex actly in the position they occupy dur ing life. Some idea can be formed of . the labor involved when it is remem bered that the human body contains upward of a million nerves of various sorts. Dr. Weaver, who lately trav eled in Europe, was stiuck with the want of some specimen of anatomy showing the nerves only. Procuring the body of a colored woman who had died in a very emaciated condi tion, Dr. Weaver, working ten hours a day for upwards of six months, and chiseling the bones away piece by piece, managed to get what he wanted. As teen yesrer.lsy, the figure pinned to a blackboard u a polished frame, looked at a distance like a very, deli cate drawing in white of the nerves of the human figure. A cloie inspec tion, however, revealed the fact that the delicate lines were really nerves, some as delicate 3?d tine as Bilk. The dura mater of the ekull and backbone are retained and also the eyes. The nerves of the spinal cord ate so fine and bo close together that a very fine needle had to be used to separate them. Portions of the skin are also preserved, bu' every particle of bone and tissue has been removed. "The sum and substance of what I The convalescents are all .dTiogbTTal' c&QileJfl.b-&,thJe ttO?

Confidence has been restored and business has resumed its usual ac tivity. Selma has 15,000 inhabitants and the health of the city is remark ably good. Cotton is coming in live ly, though it is generally acknowledg ed by both factors and planters that the crop has been greatly damaged by the succession of storms and rains since the opening of the cotton sea son and by the depredations of the cotton worms. All trains on the six railrods running into Selma are subject to quarantine regulations. A report was circulated yesterday that a case of yellow fever had aDDeared at Talladega, Ala , but but dispatches this afternoon show there is not a word of truth in it and that no case of sickness of any kind prevails there.

In conformity with the principle announced m the compromise act, i think that whatever revenue is necessary to an economical and honest administration of the gen eral government ought to be derived from the duties imoosed On foreitm imoorts.and suoh discrimination ought to be made as will incidentally afford reasonable protection to our national interests. I think there is no danger of a high tariff being ever established that of 1828 was eminently deserving that denomination. 1 was not in Congress when it passed and did not vote for it; but with its hiBtory, and with the circumstances which gave birth to it, I. am well acquainted. They were highly discreditable to American legislation, and I hope, for its honor, will never be again repeated. After my return to Congress in 1831, my efforts were directed to the modi fication and reduction of the rate of duty contained in the act of 1828. The act of 1832 greatly reduced and modified them, and the act of 1833, i ii. j .i - . : 4 cummouiy caiieu me cuujuruuuei, -i, still further reduced and modified them. , The act which paessd at the extra session of 1841, which 1 sup ported, was confined to tbe free ar ticles. I had resigned my seat in the Senate when the act of 1812 was passed. Generally the duties which it imposes are lower than those in the act of 1832. And without intending to express any opinion upon every item of this laBt tariff, I would say SVeabMr Air Una.

Orders so litoied and promptly executed. that I think the provisions, in the main, are wise and proper. If there be any excesses or defects in it (of which I have not the means here of iudffinsr), they ought to be corrected, My opinion, that there is no danger hereafter of a high tariff, is founded on the gratifying fact that our manu factures have now taken a deep root. In their infancy they needed a greater measure of protection: but as they rrew and advanced they acquired less protection. Even now some branches of them are able to maintain in dis tant markets successful competition with rival foreign manufactures. Bt Teleuraoh to the News and Ouser ver . Wabhinqtoh, D. C, Sept. 26.
