The Germans of the East and West will decide the next presidential elec tion. They are drifting to Democracy. The entire Tan Handle of 'Texas, a trad of 5,000 square miles, has been sold to an English company for grazing purposes. The Democrats in Louisiana smile a knowing smile when it is intimated tb&t thc Rspublican3 will carry that. State next year. The New Orleans Picayune makes an ingenious statement to prove that tke various American syndicates engaged in building Mexican railways will reap, on 12,850 miles of track, a profit of $31)3,500.000. A German correspondent writing to a New York paper states that a cook in that country gets $20 a year wages, which is an advance of fifty per- cent, hi the last twenty-Gve years. Nurses get three cents a day , . Tie halt brother of Napoleon, King of Home, Prince Frederick Al bert de Mottenuovo, aged 62 (son of Mario Na poleon the First's wife, and her second husband, Field Marshal Count 'Neip preg), has just come out. completely cured lroiu the madhouse w here he has beta confined for the last two years. He is now with his son in his chateau ofSteinatu Anger. m List Sunday's edition of the New York Htrald was an octuple sheet, which is the second instance of the kind in three week3. In this issue there is ihe enormous total ot 132 columns of advertising, equal to 22 full pages of iix columns each, Herald size and Htrald type, and yet even this tremen dous pressure is not allowed to in any measureKmrtail the production ot news and hesfee the octuple sheot. Let us see: 132 columns of ad vertisine means (we estimate roughly) about 275 lines to the column and this.at the ordinary rates for advertising in the Herald, s $110 per column. At this rate,; then, assuming that we are correct, Sunday's issuo contains nearly $15,000 .worth ol ad Yd tisehients. If tkeHerald could pub lish tliii same issue every Sunday during the year, or could average it. thm its business from this source alone would be nearly $800,000, without any reference at all to the other six-sevenths of the week. Thc octuple is truly a stupen dous issue and it is gratifying to out aiders as it may be taken as a sure in dication of a good trade this Spring and of substantial business prosperity The New York Suji says thai "the Democrats of North Carolina are rep resented as being still in favor of the levation of Mr. Tilden to the seat which he was prevented byjraud from occupying." On the contrary, we doubt if there is a corporal's guard of tilden men in North Carolina. Air. Tilden was elected once, and it was not only "fraud," but1 timidity, thr.t prevented him horn taking his seat. Our opinion is tiiat the masses of the people in North Carolina prefer W. S. Hancock to any living man, but as it is the boss es, and not the masses, who are repre sented in convention, it is hard - to say now Hancock stock really is. But Jjorth Carolina will send her quota to lrv! electoral college to vote for any good Democrat who is selected, no matter keter it is Tilden, or Hancock, or Ueaveland, or Seymour, or McDonald. But there isn't a first-class Democrat in JUe State who will support Beast But r hutd that which we look upon "impossibility become an accom- BaO iLaCt; shouId' il1 other words, endoby?!- or accepted or tho m a xemocratic convention, reft?;epeoPle in North Carolina will elfr!?-from the P01 and let the Sf Hn thlS So by default, and rnomW TUl not hesitate fdr one Sa?1 such; a course of cu,pmanks, ophers. 15c; - ! - .. . .

Selah! shekels into his Last Niffht The entertainment presented at the? Opera House last night by Herrmann and his assistants was one of the most pleasant that has ever been known" in Wilmington, and it that so few persons is to be .regretted were present to Jen- joy it. The sleight-ff-hand was very fine, thc best, we think, we have ever seen here; the cabinet and jierial suj pension tricks were j excellent, and the exhibition by the Japanese with the ufipronounceableinaiiie was of the very best order. Mad Dog. j A fine setter dog, the property of Dr. W. II. Green, yesterday manifested snch signs of being mad that its owner determined to kill it and attempted ! to do so but the animal escaped from the promises. He was overtaken and kill ed, eventually bv'a policeman, at the corner of Front and Church streets. This is the first case we have heard re ported as occurring in the city this year, and in fact for a number of years, although we have recently hoard , of a number of cases from the country and in one or two instances we have heard of hydrophobia resulting to those who have been bittenby mad dogs. So Sad. She was fair and beautiful to look upon as she passed usjin the street to day. The eighteen winters of blighting frost and summers of burnins sun which had evidently passed over her head, had only served to heighten into charming womanhood the lovely maid en whose cheeks werej iust faintly ting" ed with the healthful glow of rosy beau ty, as if mantled by a blush of pride a1 the ponsciousness of her own loveliness. Her mild blue eyes seemed looking dreamny into the distance as though there was no thought of ithel love'igbt wmcn sparkled m .those texpressive E orbs. Her step was free and elastic and carried her perfect form with ele gant yet. unrestrained and hnpdless graced Her rich masses of "flaxen hair were in perfect keeping with here pure blonde complexion.!

It may be that there are some very rich phosphate deposits underlying this section, the rocks) found at. Castle Hayne seeming to establish t lis fact to a certain extent. The Xeics aiid O0 servcr thinks that the discovery is an important one. It has given some 'time and attention to the subject and in commenting on the find, says; The indications are that the bed is extensive, while the analysis demon strates its richness in phosphatic ele ments. There are many beds of cop rolites on the lower waters of the Cape Fear, but those heretofore examined have not been of sufficient j importance to juFtify opciating them, Green sand is also found, while, as is well known, marl of great excellence abounds Phosphatic rock, however, is of a dit fofont fftrmation. The orisin of the phosphate beds in the coast region of bouin Carolina is ia uouut. iu uwu satisfactory theory that we have met with is that when this continent was yet young the gulf stream passed still further inland than at-present ; that its channel widened on reaching the Caro lina! coast and the current slackened; that this loss of momentum refilled in a settling of the rich phosphatic sedi ment, which the gulf stream rought with it Irom the topics'. Hence the present deposit. If this theory be cor rect, then unless the gulf stream was deflected eastward by some headland to the southward ot the Cape Fear, there should also be similar deposits found in the Cape Fear region. An ex amination of the Rocky Point district, just North ot Castle Hayne, "indicates that it was at a comparatively recent date covered by the ocean, and that af ter the coast line had changed. - it re mained an arm ot the sea. What , the coast line was when the sands of Mt -Misery were being piled up, is a mere matter of conjecture; but considering the surroundings; it is highly probable that in that region beds of phosphates exist of sufficient extent to justify work ing, r... . , .; i , , '.'.,'".' t 4'v-"'.. - 1 ' ' - v ....::-..'

" " ReSpectfully, i A Pleasant Hour v Mr. Gregory, f Marblehead, Massa chusetts, through whose munificence the Congregational Church, on Nnnj between Sixth and Seventh, streets, and New Hampshire Memorial Institute, onthe corner ofNun and Seventh streets, were mainly established, has been in the city for several days', with ; some others of his Northern fr.ends, and to day held a sort of informal reception at the City Hall. There . was1 quite a gathering ot some ot our most promi nent citizens and a few colored persons in attendance. Mayor Hall introduced Mr. Gregory to the audience in a' very happily conceived yet brief speechl The speech of the latter occupied about 15 minutes in its delivery and was listened to with marked attention and interest. His line of argument was that in pro per education the heart the virtues mus be taugh as well as the ; mental powers; that to educate the latter with out caring for the tornier ; ;was to fit man for a vicious life;. that: the - whole mn mentalr physicalJ ancU nioralt .should be properly and V thoroughly trained at one and the same time. Rev. Drs. Taylor Mayor Hall made and Wilson and brief, . "appropriate speeches, after which the meeting broke up. "i - 'V;:.- ' We must not forget to mention ' that a party of gentlemen from New Haven Conn., were also present, among whom was the venerable SUias Pierpont, who, although an octogenarian visits ' our section now for the first time and ex presses himself as highly pleased and agreeably surprised at what he has seen and heard while in our midst. Dr. A. B. Fuller and Mr.. M. E. Osborne, of the New Haven Register I were the others from the New England "City of Elms." The Langtry waves are the newest for the front hair.
