Missouri is rich in her schoo'l iund which amounts to nearly $9,500,000. A Washinghton City rumor is to tic effect that President Arthur wHl veto the Fitz-John Porter bill. Joseph Sailer, a Philadelphia editor, died on the 15th. lie had been in busi ness for 37 years and during that time had taken bat one holiday. London is at present paying fur 'fir. -insurance over $6,000,000 a year 40 per cent, more than the cost, of main taining 11,000 metropolitan police: It was a thoughtless Michigan phy sician who laughed while eating catsup, and so got some ot the staff into his. windpipe, where it choked him to death. Researches as to the origin of draw poker, convince the Macon Telegraph that the "game was invented about 1846 by John Kirkman, a Tennesseo turfman. The traction railway," the invention ot General Beauregard, which has proved a success in San Francisco and Chicago, is about to be tried in Phila delphia. ' - ; - - What a very barren compliment was that paid to Col. Johnston, ot Char lotte. in nominating him for Senator by the Republican (not the 'Liberal") cau cus at Raleigh! The business, through the New York postoffice during the past year amount ed to the enormous sum of $63,101,857, 54, an increase of $7,210,000. over the preceediBg year. New York pays her police justiees, eleven of them, $8,000 a year. Balti more pays her police justice, competent men, too, $2,200 a year. There is no credit to Baltimore on the comparison. Gray squirrels are so troublesome in Connecticut that the farmers wish to exterminate them, and they are . being killed in great numbers. A party of three recently bagged 105 squirrels in a day.

His com parison of Gambetta with Ransom was in just about the same happy view as the allusion, in the same breath to GambelLVs burial aud Rnnsoni's 'ele vation to the very level on- which ho has stood for the past twelve years. . m . 1 C 4 .".. I . Anthony Trollope is said to have lelt be washed away. It has recently been more than one completed story of which thoroughly repaired but is now. so bad mot a-page na seen the light, ne ly damaged by the freshet that it is im used to say of himself that he ha'd pro" ! passable- III duoea more volumes than any other! . English writer of this or any other day. 'Trollope is generally considered, by people of discernment and taste, since the death of George Eliot, as being the finest romancer of the age, William Black alone excepted. Some have rank ed Trollope as very near Thackeray. The New York Tribune, in looking over the criminal statistics lor the year, discovers that the South does not nreeent such a chastlv showinsr as it has been the fashion to attribute to that section. Of the 730 murders commit ted during the twelve months only S12 were im the South, while 131 took place in New York State alone. Of the 101 executions'more than half were in the Southern states, which furnished less than one-third of the murders, while in New York state, which furnished more than one-sixth of the murders, there were only four txecutlons. . VOL. VII. , Senator Ransom was duly reelected U. S. Senator yesterday in - the General Assembly, by something more than a party vote, four Republicans having votedfor him in the House, namely: Messrs., Frazier of Peniter, Cain of Davie, Candler of Jackson, and Lan drcth of Alleghany. Tto "others, - oae of them Representative Green,, from New Hanover, were ; excused from voting. In the Senate, Mebane, a Re publican, withheld his vote, and in the House seven members were absent, one ol wholn was paired, j The entire vote cast was 108 for Ransom and 47 for Johnston.. It is likely but for the action of the Republican caucus in ten dering a complimentary vote to Col. Johnston, Gen. would have been Ransom n lelection almost unanimous. Several who felt compelled to abide by the action of that caucus ;and vote for Johnsten, very plainly intimated their regrets at not being able j to cast their ballots for Ransom. The two Houses will meet to-day at noon to compare the vote and to announco the result and thereupon Matthew W. Ransom1 will be formally declared the representative of the people of North- Carolina in the United States Senate for" six years Irom Aiarcn 4th, . The News und Observer avers posi tively thatCol. Doekery will contest Judge Bennett's seat in the next Con gress. U gives the following as the grounds upon which the contest will be ni3de: i That in several counties in the State thore was fraud in the registration of voters. - j That ballots given for Doekery were fraudulently counted for Bennett. That the poll-holders and supervisors were assaulted and driven from the polls. . :i j That men were allowed) to vote in counties not their legal residences That legally qualified voters were prevented and obstructed from voting for O.

I We were pleased t receive a call thismorningfrom our old acquaintance, Mr. Arthur L.:Bult, of Charlotte, a North Carolinian and a gentleman of much talent. Mr. Butt is the artist who painted several panoramos whic h have been exhibited with much, suc cess in various parts of the! country. He has now a new painting, represent ing the beautiful stories of theBiblev together with his panorama pf "Reve lation," will be exhibited in thig.city early in February. , . j A Michigan boy ate a bar of 'eeap, drank a lot of soda water and went to bed to cure his cold. The doctor had a hard time to pull him through;- but the ooy says ine next time ne catches a cold ho wil use Dr. Bull's Cough Syr- ud. Tlien unci How." f This is the title of a book recently written by a lady of North Carolina, who writes under thenqm de plume cf Zillah Raymond, in which is given the history, trials, successes and perplexi ties of "Hope's First Schoql." The seenes are all laid in this State and the plot, characters introduced and inci dents are all North Carolinian. It is to be sold by subscription only, the price being fixed at $1 per copy, and Miss Lou H. Frayser, of Pender coun ty, is now in the city canvassing lor the work. This lady gave us the pleasure of a visit this morning, and we were glad to learn from her that she was meeting with very good success in her undertaking. She will remain in the city some days longer during which time she will call upon the citizens and give them an opportunity of securing a copy of the book. I A Narrow .Escape, Miss Matilda Petersen, of Beatty's Bridge township, Bladen county, aged about seventeen years, a pupil in the school being taught by Mr. W. Irving Shaw, while standing with her back too near the fire, on the, 4th inst., : iiad her dress ignited by the flames and had it not been for the presence of mind and hard work of two young men, Messrs Ed. L. Herfry and Willie Beat, ty, ! who were present and were her classmates, she would have met a hor rible death. When she became aware that her dress was on fire . she started to run, but was caught by the young men who fought the flames until they were extinguished. The young "lady escaped with no further, injury than a severe fright and a ruined dress, but we are sorry to learn that both of the young men had their hands badly, burned in their humane and noble - efforts to save their fair schoolmate in the hour of fearful peril. - "The Mftseotte." There wa3 a large, fashionable and critical audience assembled at the Opera Housejast night, drawn thither by the performance of the above-named comic opera by the Gorman Opera Troupe. The opera was well rendered and, as a consequence, was well received. In some ot tho parts there wad a slight falling below, other, performances we have heard and some of the, parts were never excelled, so that, taken all to gether, it was as good as any that has been put upon the stage here: We were considerably but happily disappointed, as we had recently seen adverse criti cisms upon the merits of the troupe and, consequently, were somewhat pre pared to witness a performance not equal to the demands of our, music loving public. But everybody, seemed in the best of humor and entirely satis fied, &s in our opinion they 'shoald have been! The vocalization of Signer Tag iiepietra, the baritone, was. excellent, and his acting perfect. In the ..spoken dialogue his rather imperfect English pronunciation was quite manifest, but it rather added to than . detracted from the interest attached to his part: ; There were quite a number of local "gags", and slang expressions, not in the origi nal text, interjected into the dialogue, which, though in rather questionable taste, had a very happy effect upon the audience We regretted to see so many leaving the house just before the con , elusion of the last act, thereby creating an annoy ing confusion to those who were beisg delighted with the fine music and acting. j v.'' v: 'j "Nor. barque Minde, Anderson, hence for Rotterdam, arrived at Plymouth, Eng., Jan. 13th. ; '-, ;r" " Great Closing Oat Sale.

I full report Death of Mr. Urowoi I Mr. Thos. O. Brown, a prominent citizen of Bladen county, and a gentle man nearly connected with a number ofourewn citizens, died yesterday af ternoon at the residence of Mr. Samuel Hall, on Sixth, between Dock and Orange streets. Mr. Brown was about GO years of age and had been suffering for some time past with the maladies which terminated his life. About two weeks ago he came here to obtain med ical advice and assistance but help was beyond the reach of human skill. The body was taken up on the. steamer D. Murchison to-day for interment at the lamlly burial place. The remains were accompanied by a number of relatives and friends from this city. The Princess Louise. A telegram received here this fore noon from Richmond makes announce ment of the fact that the Princess Louise and her suite will leave tbat city to night, for Charleston, and will arrive here to-morrow morning on the 7:02 train from the Korth. The travelers occupy two parlor coaches of their own and it will bo necessary for them to change cars here, taking the Atlantic Coast Line parlor cars for the balance of the way, They will remain a day or two at Charleston but the Princess will mot remain there for the winter-but will ap to Bermuda in the British steamer. Dido, which is now at that port. awaiting their arrival. There will probably be a great many of our citizens who are not too republican to torn out at 7 o'clock in the morning to catch a glimpse of a genuine scion of royalty.
