causing great distress.

It is officially announced that the re

that hia relations with the Gladstone

The New York stock market is still
fearfully inflated. The bulls have had
their own way for weeks. When the
tumble begins, as it surely will begin
some of these days, theu let somebody

The Turkish delegates to the Grecian
Boundary Conference now propose to
modify' the convention, for handing over
the ceded territory so that the evacuat

as proposed by the Ambassadors.
The French campaign in Africa has
been short, sharp, decisive and success
ful. It has been brought to a close by
a treaty with the Bey of Tunis and it
may well be understood that the French
haye secured all they demanded. Th3
Powers.stare with open mouths, and say
"What does all this mean?" and France
responds, "Nothing of any importance,
gentlemen; it is only a little, private dif
ficulty which has already been amicably
arranged."
It was very warm in New York and
Brooklyn on Thursday, the thermometer
being up anions the nineties. Nobody
was prepared for such a sudden hot spell
and there was really great distress. In
Prospect Park, Brooklyn, there 4was a
brigade parade and seventy-five men
were overcome by heat. Eight cases of
sunstroke were reported in New York
and eix in Brooklyn.' In New York, at
noon, the thermometer marked 92 de
erees: m Brooklyn, at l p. m., it was
over 95; at Rondtut, at 1 o'clock, it was
96; and at Port Jervis, at 1 o'clock, it
was 94 and at 3 o'clock it was 100.
There was a large sale of fine cattle in
Philadelphia on Thursday. The N. Y.
Sun says :
The sale was attended by about 300
people, many of whom were ladies, .but
there were only about a dozen buyers,
the mass of the farmers present being
frightened oil at the start by the stiff
ness of the bidding over Gambetta, a
Jersey heifer, which sold far $500. The
sale .lasted four hours, and the receipts
amount to S20.763.50. an average of
about $262 for each' cow, heifer and calf.
This is the lowest, average known in
Philadelphia for years. T. A. Have

We understand that the gross re
ceipts of the Festival held by the Rec
tory Club at the City Hall this week
will probably reach as high as $700, and
that the expenses will nat.be more, prob
ably, than $100, if as much. Besides
this there is an organ, donated to the
Club, which is to be disposed of for their
benefit, and we trust that the net amount
will reach at least 300. This organ has
been a source of much vexation to the
ladies. It was shipped from Boston, if
we are not mistaken, nearly three weeks
ro, and to-day, after telegraphing in
every direction, it ha3 just been heard
from and will probably arrive to-morrow.
It must have gone around by New Or

most likely, was in the hck of proper
shipping direction. It is said to be an
legant instrument.

first grand excursion of the Beason to the
seaside will be given bj the Wilmington
Light Infantry on their anniversary, the
20 th., which falls due next Friday to
Smithville and the Forts, on the steam
yacht Passport. Our friends may rest
assured that no pains will be spared to
enhance the pleasure of the occasion,
and we do trust that it will be a fine
day and a large turn-out.
The Bazaar.
The Bazaar givea by the Rectory
Club of St. J ohn's Church closed its doors
last night. It was opened n ..Wednes
day evening and, despite many draw
backs, is considered as having been very
successful. The tolltwing were awarded:
The pair of vases, "for the most popu
lar married lady i Wilmiigton," was
awarded by ballot to Mrs. Jno. E. Lip
pitt. Neill JSmersoa received the largest
number of votes, and was awarded the
afghan "fer the handsomest baby."
Miss Augusta Lippitt was declared
"the most popular young lady," she hav
ing received a majority of the rotes cast
Miss Loula Parsley was the recipient
of a handsome handkerchief case as "the
prettiest lady at the Bazaar." .
An elegant tablecloth was given Mrs.
C. D. Myers in partial recognition of her
arduous efforts to make the Bazaar a
success.
The ladies have still a number of
handsome articles on hand which will
probably be disposed of by them at
some entertainment next month. ,
We Correct.
In the fight over the ; proposed new
county of Vance the Oxford Free Lance
and the Henderson Tobacconist have
organized a little controversy. In do
ing this the f ree Lance evidences the
state of affairs in Pender cotmty. That
paper has the "best authority" for making
the followiner assertions:
1st. The county has no public building.
2d. A special tax of 2,500 per year
fpr fnnr vphtq wah levied hv the last
Legislature for Pender.
3d. Up to two years ago jury tickets
were goin at a song.
4th. Conntv scr nt ia not saleable at
5th. Despite the fact that no buildings
... . .
nave been erected, tne county
is under
stood to be groin sr in debt and has been
since its erection.
. The "best authority" is sometimes, un
reliable. The first assertion is correct.
Pender cotmty has as yet no public
buildings, but soon will.have.
The second assertion is correct and is
also corrective of the first. The tax
alluded to is for the purpose of erecting
a Court House and Jail.
The third assertion is correct, and for
reasons which we will hereafter explain-1
sentiaDy. There are two classes of scrip.
That issued, during the past two years,
since a Democratic Board of Commis
sioners have had control of affairs, is, if
we are correctly informed, worth par and

have never seen or heard of any of it.be I

The fifth assertion is entirely wrong, I
and, for that matter, is just ths reverse
of the facts in the case. When the Dem
ocrats came .into the administration of
affairs, something over two years ago,
for the first time since the
formation of the new county, they found
it already heavilyjburdened with debt.
They immediately inaugurated a wist
policy of reform, and as a result have not
only paid off the expenses incurred dur
ing their administration, but have ac-l
tually largely reduced the old debt. We
