At a meet ing held last Sunday afternoon for the purpose of aiding them in their labors, conducted by the Rev. Mr. Pearson, the Evangelist, a large number or .jkw members were en rolled, and on a subscription lieiug started, the sum of $3,776 was obtained. Gen. Barringer gave $250 and uine other gentlemen gave $100 each, and then many others gave $50, and smaller sums.

THE CLO8ING DAYS OF CONGRESS TnE DOINGS OF OUR DELEGATION. Cor. News and Observer. Washington Feb. 27, 1S87. The House was in session until mid night last night on the legislative appro priation bill, but very little progress was made on account, of the obstructions of two southern Republicans, Brady and Pet tibone. Mr. Holman tried to pass the bill under a suspension of the rules, but being defeated in this on a rising vote, he mov an adjournment until Monday. There arc only five days left of the session, and with most of the appropriation bills to be passed, an extra session would be inevi table, unless the House rises to the occa sion and chokes otf its obstructionists. These appropriation bills have been held back by the committee, probably to be passed under a suspension of the rules to prevent amendments. It has also been suggested that it is done to secure certain personal political results. At any rate the House worked night and day this week. The conference committees have been in session nearly all day to-day, and the en- rolung clerks have been at their desks, since early morn. It is said that the' President has again intimated that he will not come to the caiptal to sign bills, in a rush. During the session yesterday afternoon, a fire started in the sub-basement among some papers and documents and the hall of the House was sutfocating with smoke. Several , members left the building, dreaming possibly of anarchists and dy namiters. The judiciary committee of the House having :gr.ei to report favorably the Senate resolution on the subject, it is likely that inauguration day will be changed from March 4th to April 80th. It proposes, of course, a change in the constitution to that effect. If adopted, President Cleveland and the 50th Congress will have fifty-seven days udded to their terms. Mr. Henderson is working hard for the public building at StatesviMe, and may get the bill through the House this week. Mr. In sails, of Kansas, who has been elected president pro tem of the Senate, looks like a bean pole, with a high collar and eye glasses. He is as thin as a lathe, and appears like the sharp Yankee school teacher that he once was. He is one of the most incisive speakers in the Senate, cool and aggressive and usually well posted on his subject. It is said Hoar is deeply chagrined at not being selected. The Post of today has quite a long art icle in its society notes on the charming tea given by Mrs. Senator Vance, Tues day evening. Your correspondent has seldom seen an entertainment so largely attended. The democratic members of our dele gation have been working unceasingly to secure some legislation looking to the re peal ox modification of the odious Inter nal Revenue laws, and after several inef fectual efforts have got the members of the ways and means committee to agree' to a oil 1 drawn by Mr. Henderson, which he will endeavor to bring up tomorrow. This bill is entitled "a bill to modify the Internal Revenue system, and for other Kurposes," and is a redraft of three bills eretofore reported favorably by the ju- ucmrv cwnnmiees. it is a very impor tant measure to our people, and I give the leadine features, which are as follows: 1st. To exempt fanners from .any spe cial taxes on the sale of leaf tobacco, and to repeal all restrictions upon the sale of the same by the producers or their legal representatives. 2nd. To abolish storekeepers .at distil leries of five bushels per day or iess, and to require the tax on spirits to be levied and collected on the cur-achy of said dis tilleries. 1 ' 3rd. To prohibit the destruction of stills, and to repeal the tax on their manu facture. 4th. To abolish the minimum punish ments, and give the Federal judges dis cretion in i 11 poi-ig punishment, not how ever 4o exceed the limit authorized by statue. To nut an end to frivolous pros ecutions, and enable the judges to be just as well as merciful. 5th. To permit only three persons to cause a warrant to be issued 011 affidavit based on information and belief.; these to e the collector, deputy add revenue agent; the warrant to be approved by the district attorney with written instruc tions; other warrants to be sworn to, and based upon personal knowledge; and in sueh cases the U. 8. 'Commissioner gust endorse the warrant and enter upou his docket an adjudication upon .at h that the affiant shows probable eause for charging Uie person prosecuted The bill also authorizes the commis- sioners of internal .revenue to establish! special warehouses in. which to deposit the product of distilleries, and it author- izes the Federal iudees to makes able pro vision 3. for tne comfort of persons unpnsoneu, an; givemc circuu couns express power to remove "U.

Mr. Pearson and the Senate. The republican House, led by Mr. Pear son, and the democratic Senate, stand squarejy opposite to each other on the ques tion of a stock law for Buncombe. The House insists on Mr. Pearson's bill on the subject. It will not hear to the Senate sub stitute for. that bill. It will agree to no compromise. The Senate conferees there lore, reported in according with these facts and have, at their request, been discharged. We suppiMMt another conference will be held, as tc parliamentary practice sanc tions t n o.ormorc conferences in such cases, but, meantime, the contest is on.

A River of Fire. THE GREAT ERUPTION OF M.Vt'NA LOA OX THE ISLAND OF HAWAI. fSnn Francisco, CalM Feb. 26, ?87. The steamer Australia, which arrived here this morning from Honolulu, brings full particulars of the great lava flow from Manna Loa. The sight is described as magnificent beyond description. The column of tire was fi rat . observed from the summit of the c ater on tbe night of January 16. - The tire died down before midnight, but great volcanic disturbances con tinned up to the night of the 18th, when fire and lava again burst forth from the mountain side. The length of the flow is estimated at twenty miles. This distance the lava accomplished in two days, spreading as it descended, reaching the sea on the eve ning of Jauuary 20. The stream of lava continued to flow without iuterruptiou until January 20 when a river of fire burst forth, following the line of the lava flow. When the fires flamed out the heavy earthquakes ceased, although slight tremors were felt at in tervals thereafter. A Double Surprise. Charlotte Chronicle. Yesterday morning's Chmnie'e renoun ced the return of Judge W. P. Bynuni from an extended Southern trip. II-emed his thresh hold fwr the first time since the 20th of ls( January. Win 11 the Judge came up town tester day morning he did not wear a very cheer ful countenance, :tnd a Chronh le rer recti tative shortly learned the cause ot this I troubled appearance. Judye B;num had made the discovery that during hisaUsence. burglars had affected an entrance to his resilience and had stolen all ot' his solid vcrware, a fine collection valued at 2,o00. Hetoic leaving home last January. .Indue Itynnm had c ireful ly packed hisMlerware in a tritiiK, winch he locked una placed in his lii'droom. The hurglars went directly to the lel- riMtm in wlin a w.-if placed the treasure, nnd breaking pen the trunk, secured the con tents and stoic quietly away with the Ixxrtv. The los of the valuable ware greatlv disturlK'd Judge Bynum, and in his efforts to get a elew. he made a visit to the office of the Southern Express Com mnv in l lie n hopes ot finding trace of it shipment In this, however, he wus unsuccessful, and he turned t leave tkc office, when one of Hie clerks called him baik. There is k heavy Ikx Ibr vou here." saioS the clerk, "shipped from New York." " 'Well,' the Jadge answered altrartcd- Iv, "send it down to mv house." Judge Bvnuni then returned to his law othVc, and all thoughts of the box passed truu his mind, but when he went bowe to linner'he found- a heavv iron-hooped box awaiting him. It lore a lalel of the Neu York City Express ami was marked to W. P. Hvnum, Charlotte, -N. C. - Curious to know what the box contained. Judge By nn in proceeded to open ifc He found that it wns a donhle box, and when the. inner lid was removed, lie was atnn- ished to see his missing silverware. The goods Were .packed in the most careful man ner, and the thoroughly mystified but de-. lighted jud;c removed the articles one bv one, and f und every single piece of the stolen silver had been returned. Jude Bynum left here Ibr Florida on January 24th, and the express office records show, that the latx was receivtd here from New York three weeks ao, so that tin burglary iimt have been committed short ly after his departure. The mvstery of the theft and the return of the goods is one of moat pu7.1 ng character, but now that Judge Bnum has received the -oods. he is not iMithoring himself about advancin theories.

CAflOX, Broken Arrow, Ala. 19:4t. There will be a meeting of the larmcrs of the county at Conover today (27th) to consult in regard to matters of interest. Among other things to be discussed is the question of a co-operative store, to be owned by farmers, and run by their agent on the cash principle. If they de termine to establish it we should advise them by all means to run it on the cash system strictly. Buy for cash and sell for cash. That will do away with the expense of a book keeper, and will super cede the necessity of making the good customers pay for the losses sustained by reason of bad debts. Hickory Press.
