The following story, is related by the Washington correspondent of the At lanta Constitution: The other evening I witnessed an in cident which was an eloquent answer to the slanders of the Southern people on the negro question. I was standing in the Metropolitan hotel when an aged negro went up to Gen. Ransom - and genial Zeb Vance, who were conversing in the lobby. In a few minutes I saw them go out with the old negrt between them just as if he were a United- States Senator, take him to the ticket office next doer, buy him a ticket to Carlotte, and put him in a hack which took him to the depot with a crisp $5 bill in his hand. He had been in Virginia for some time but longed-for his home in the old North State, telling Vance that he wanted to die 'Jon the old planta tion." It was1 tod much for the warm hearted 'tar:heel." Money and mois ture came at once, aad to day there is one happy negro in North Carolina. , Tlio Death of Mr. Hahn. Mr. W. D. Mahn after a Severe illness of twenty-eight days, died at his resi dence in this city last evening, at 8 o'clock, of typhoid fever. The subject of this notice was born in Pender, then New Haaover county, on April 11th, 1828, and was at the time of his death 53 years and 14 days old. He removed to this city when a yomg man and has always made a good and law-abiding cit izen. He was a consistent member of the Front Street M. E. Church and was 'for many years one of the Board of Stewards of that church. He "was for four year3 One of the Board of Au dit and Finance of the city. Mr. Mahn wa3 a member of Carolina Lodge No. 434, Knights of Honor, and his remains were followed by the Lodge to their last resting place this afternoon. The beau tiful ritual of the Order was read over the remains at the grave. Go to Jacobi's lor Doors, Sash and Blinds, pure White Lead, Oils, Varnishes Window Glass,1 all sizes. All at the lowest prices Death, of an Octogenarian. Mr. Jacob Taylor, of Magnolia town ihip,Duplin connty,died on,Thursday,the 21st inst., at the residence of his son, "J. Wells Taylor, Esq., aged about 8"? years. The deceased was a pensioner of the government, having been a soldier in the last war with Great Britain. 1 He never had a day's sickness during his entire life, and the writer has frequently heard him say that he had heard others com plain of pains and aches, but personally he knew nothiag about them. We saw him but a few weeks ago, when he was as active and cheerful as many who are twenty years his junior. He lived with out sickness and died without disease, but merely a painless wasting away of the vital forces. He had been for half a century a consistent and conscientious member of tbe Baptist Church, and dur ing his long, useful and exemplary life no word of calumny was ever breathed against him. An humble Chris tain, a kind-hearted friend, neighbor and lather, of him it may be truly said: 'A good man has departed." . ) War History The Southern Historical Papers for March which we have not been able to review before it is at hand, and contains an nnusualjoumber of iateresting papers, among which we notice the gallant Gen eral James H. Lane's repiy to General Harriss, of Mississippi, about the" occu pation and defense of Battery Gregg. General Harriss, it seems, belonged to Mahone's division arid apparently irabaed with the same Fpirit of his valiantr chief he appropriates the honors, that belong to others. ' . General, Lane- commences his article with a dig into Mahone's ribs, in the fol lowing style: During the war I had no newspaper correspondent at my headquarters, nor did I write anything about my brigade for publication. Since I have "put aside the harness of war and become a quiet and plodding citizen" I have, by request, and "for the sake of truth and j us tice,'1 written a few articles,.in which I endeavored to give only such facts as cameuidermy own observation. Now, unasked, I must again obtrude mysclt "most reluctantly" upon the public" as General Harriss in the last No., 1880, of the Southern Historical Society Pa pers, does my old brigade and myself great injustice. General Lane then produces the proof by irrefragable testimony that the'honor and credit of the heroic defence of Bat. tery Gregg belonged to Lane's brigade of North Carolinians. General L., after famishing incontestable proof of the prominent part borne by his brigade, says : We deny that "the infantry garrison of Fort Gregg was composed entirely of the Mississippi brigade of Mahone's division." We deny that the honors of that defence belong exclusively to that brigade of Mahone's division. We claim that the largest part of the infantry which so heroically defended that fort was from our brigade of North Caroli nians. General Lane, although a Virginian himself, always speaks up nobly and fear lessly -for North Carolina troops, and particularly for his splendid brigade of Carolinians. The periodical which contains General Lane's communication,con tains also many other valuable contributions to the truth of history concerning those turbulent times of war. The magazine is pub lished monthly at Richmond, Va., and shomld be in the hands of every Southern man and woman. The subscription is only $3.00 a year. Address Rev. J.

BRHTK, P. 1L Wilmington, New Hxnever County, War Depabtmkxt, ) Office Chief Signal Officer, f Washikgtox.i D. C, April 26th, 1881., 2:50 P. M. The Chief Signal Officer furnishes the following special bulletin to the press: The area of low barometer which at yesterday's readings report was central near St. Paul has moved eastward across the Lakes and is now central North of Kingston, Ontario. Rain has fallen dar ing the past tweuty-four hours in Texas, and in ail districts East of the Missis sfppi except? New England. The winds in the. Lake Region haye veered ter West- erlvJ the temneratnre baa fallpn frnm five to fifteen degrees in the upper Mis sissipp,Xih3yand the Southern portisn of the upper! Lake Regions It; bat risen sUghtly in the extreme Northwest. The M issouri River is seven feet and ten inches above the danger line at Omaha, and two inches above it at Leavenworth. It is at the dansrer .line at Mem phis and Vicksburg, one inch below it at New Orleans and two inches at St. Louis. The indications are that the depression near Central of Ontario will' move Northeastward to the St. Law rence Valley and that cloudy weather wim ram win prevail in iNew Jingiana to-day followed by clearing weather. Fair weather will prevail in the Middle Atlantic States to-day and to-morrow preceded by1; local rains to-day. The Missouri and Mississippi will probably continue to rise and the latter to reach the danger line at St. Louis toay. We hear that Mr. W. D.. Mahn . had insurance policies amounting to 20,000 on his life. This has been the hottest day of the season thus far. The thermometer reached 82 in this office at 3 o'clock this afternoon. Soda fountains did a good business in dispensing the cooling 'liquid to day, to say nothing of the Deep Rock and Vichy that was imbibed by the thirsty way farer. Mr. J. C. Lumsden has opened his Ice Cream Saloon for the season, and is is full blast now ready to serve ladies, and gentlemen, or picnics and excursion par ties. We are f glad to be able to state that there is a marked change for the better in the condition of our Chief, and although still quite sick, we hope to be able to report his rapid convalescence in a few days.
