The Closing rcene.
Tbe mammoth ratification demonstra
tion of two day's continuance was fitting
ly closed last night by able Fppc.bes from
North Carolina distinguished senior Sen
ator, Hon M. W. Hans- m, aud our la'
ented joung Elector at-Lxrge, Mr. Fabius
H Busbee, of R-iloih.
By 8 o'clock tLe tenches and suiTwUud
ing sp.ceaabout the speaker's stand were
all filled by an eager, untiring crowd ot
interest.! atid.tor, .coliahle x. 'k
whom was a large number of ladies. Sen
ator Ransom was eloquently iotr ducei
by Maj. Chas M. S'edman, and by bis
magnificent presence alone claimed tbe
attention ot the v.t assembly before ut
tering a syllable He bgvin w thuut
pission and dituJt ii.i i- even his usual elo
quence to present oerlain of the iaipor-
taut issues now rivetiug the attention oj
the entire country in a manner which,
though plain and practical, was, yet high
ly illustrative and exceedingly states
manlike. In touching upon national af
fairs and the aggressions of the Republic
can party upon every theory of constitu
tional government and the trampling
undes foot of every constitutional
safeguard of
the
pop!e,
he
spoke from a Southern standpoint,
of the gratitude due from Southern men
to Northern Democrats for their unceas
ing labors in their behalf and in tbe cause
of good government. In this couneptlon
the distinguished speaker called atten
tion to the fact as the result of their una
faltering effjrtsof the progress and ouward
march of the great Democratic party
now in a majority of both branches of
Congress where thirteen or fourteen years
ago both houses were intensely Radical,
and in a popular majority in the country
of more than 250,000votes;not only a solid
South but having actually more than a
majority in the Northern States.
The speech of Senator Ransom was in
terrupted before its conclusion by a
show r of rain, but upon announcement
by the chairman of the meeting quite a
large portion of the large concourse of
people adjourned to the City Hall, where
though nearly prostrated by the intense
heat, the Senator was compelled by the
audience, who would accept no withdraw.
al,'to conclude his address. In the hall
he presented the claims of General Han
cock to our support in a surpassingly
eloquent manner. His classical illustra
tions here were very fine.
We regret that General Ransom's pbys
ical condition told so great y upon his
strength last night, but with all the de
pressing influences thus bearing upon hisi
he acquitted himself like the statesman
ha is.
At the Conclusion of this address Mr. F.
U. Busbee, who was announced to share
with Senator Ransom the honors cf the
evening, ascended the stand, amid the ap
plause of thn audienca. Though the hour
was late, and Mr. Busbee announced that
he had no purpose of detaining them to
repeat what had been already told, and
with such hearty effect, still as be pro
ceeded he was betrayed by ihe enthusiasm
of the crowd iuto making qnite an elo..
quent and tasteful address. He had the
misfortune tocla?m the attention of the
people late in the order of ihU extended
feast of good things, but he made his mark
most handsomely. ! We look upon our
young Elector at Large as one of the most
intellectual young men in the SU'e, with
a future of brilliant politic 1 poesiblities
before Lim. Ke has a very fine conception
of the art of stump speaking which he
is carrying roost cxoollent'y well Ino
successful practice. Hi labors in this
canvaps in our State will do the Demo
cratic cause great good.
With Mr. Busbee's epecch closed these
great ratification ceremonies, tbe like ot
which has never before been enjoyed in
such numbers and with such enthusiasm
and with so many distinguished speakers
at any one time in the history of this
section.

All Over W Uli-
With last night the two days ui iatU
tying aud speech-making have euded. It
was, a we have previously stated, the
most successful affiir of the kind ever
known here and probably in the State.
To the distinguished gentlemen who were
with us and who addressed as the thanks
of our people as a community are due.
There are others, too, to whom our
people are warmly indebted aud those are
the gentlemen of the committee and the
marshals. The beat evidence of the emi
neoce of their efforts is found in the sucb
cess they attained. They worked well
and fa thfully and successfully, and on all
sides have we heard them warmly com--plimented,
;
llie Crops.
We are sorry to learnj that the cotton
crop in Oaslow county Is cut short,
probably onefourtbtfrom the results fol'
lowing on the reeent heavy rains; This
information is from a gentleman who
farms in that county.
We also learn that the ccrn crop in
the Holly Shelter section has also been
considerably damaged by the rains but
to what extent oar iofoimant could not
state.
. A Pleasing incident.
There is a very pleasing incident con
nected with the visit of the Pender
county delegation to Wilmington on the
steamer John Davaon which has not yet
found its way into print. When the
steamer reached Meares' Bluff, on its
way to the city, the United States flag
was run up, amid immense and hearty
cheers, and our young friend Scott Rob"
inson, of Black River Chapel, was called
for vociferously by the crowd. He respond
ed to the call, and a gentleman who was
present tells ,U3 that ,te made a happy,
pie. iant and eloquent little steech, one
that would have done credit to an old
campaigner. j
There were about one hundred of these,
gallant sons of Pender on the steamer
and the hea ty enthusiasm with which
they were received here was but a graceful
tribute to as gallant 'and determined a
community of tiue and zsalous Democrats
as can be found anywhere in North Car
olina. Tbe Bone and Muscle producing Malt,
the Nerve quieting Hop, the superb Mal
arial antidote Qainine, and othtr precious
ingredients, combined without fermenta
tion, are the ingredients of 'Malt Bitters,'
prepared by the Malt Bitters Company.
City Court
Charles King, colored, ,an inmate of
the Work House, or at least a supposed
inmate, as be has been sentenced there
for a term, who was arrested on the
etrcets Tuesday night with a large rook
in his hand just after a gentleman in the
Democratic procession was struck and
cut very badly on the head, was arraign
ed this morning before the Mayor. Tbe
testimony of several gentlemen proved
that the defendant was caught with a
rock in bis hand at or near the place
from which the missile was thrown which
struck the party referred to above. The
Mayor ordered the prisoner to be confined
In a dark cell fur thirty days.
Andrew JohLson, auolhe; colored boy
about 13 or 16 years of ag, who was
arrested by a couple of "gentlemen last
nifcht while the Democratic crowd was
moving trom the stand to tbe City Hidh
with a rock w ighing 2 pounds ia one
hand and while in the act of picking up
another, was arraigned upon the above
charge this morning. The withessea one
f whom was a peace officer explained to
His Honor that this thing had been in
dulged iu by the negroes or negro boys
ever since ltfCd whenever the Democratic
party had a demonstration of any kind,
and that the citizens were beginning to
think they had endured it quite loxg
enough, and they did not pre pose to sub
mit to it any longer. Tha ilayor then
ordered the last named defendant to be
imprisoned in a dark -ell for fifteen days.
His Honor, la passing s&nienee, said be
was ctetoxmined to ferret oat and break np
uch violations of tbe peace and he pro-
posed to preserve the peace, no matter
which party vat making the demonstra
tion or enjoying the jabUee.

A Polite Request.
We have been asked to state that the
torchbearers iu the late procession whe

they obtained them, are now politely
requested to bring them back, bo that the
lamps may be held In reserve for another
occasion of a similar kind.! :
Send Them to the! Poor House.
The poor demented colored woman
who roams about' the streets, known as
"Crazy Kitty" should betaken care of by
borne sene. Tovday she appeared on the
streets bareheaded and only one thin gars
menton, which partly concealed her body
Her condition to-day approximated nudi
ty, too closaly for decency's sake,
"Joshua the First" is also a person wor
thy of charity, made so by bis infirmi
ties, and he likewise should be taken care
of. Why cannot they be sent to the
Poor House?
The Shoe of the Future-
i .
It is said that an entirely new shoe has
a top of fine patent leather stitched on in
a Ecollop. It laces with a narrow rib
bon, Las a broad heel and small toes, as,
indeed, have all the dressy shoes and
boots now made. A novel boot has a
black cloth top stitched on with a scollop,
but with white stitching, the effect of
which is very dressy and yet not toocon
spicuous when the ehewiness of the light
and checked cloth tops so much worn is
considered. The very general liking
shown fcr the Oxford tie has brought in
to favor a lower cut shoe than was pre
viously worn, and like tbe button boot
these now button more often than lace.
The open 'sandal boot with intersections
of lace is much used for evening, tbongh
it failed to find favor at first,' and
prove this the observer will find that
1

Aoytbiug that displays a pretty stocking
U l.ked and -will be liked fcr home and
evening wear. Red kid shoes and slip
pers for home wear are trying to make
their way to the front, and, such Is the
passion still unabated for red, that they
will succeed is predicted.
