" An bid resident of Connecticut says: "The similarity between the year 1884 and that of 1816, 'the year without a summer,1 is being strikingly realized. The present year is ewn more pheno menal in that the July and August weather has been generally much colder and more singular than was that of 1816, though the June of the earlier season was colder than was last June " Thus far there has been a frost in each month of this year. , . The late James L. Claghorn, of Phil adelphia, was one of the greatest art patrons and connoisseurs in the coun try, although for many years an actiye banker and business man. . It was thioueh his efforts that the Academy of Fine Arts at Philadelphia was placed upon its present footing by a popular subscription of $265,000. He was the owner of about 50,000 fine engravings and had a library full of art works, while his collection of fine prints is the largest in America.' The Republicans of the Fourth dis trict met at Raleigh on Wednesday to nominate a candidate for Congress, and the News and Observer says it was the smallest convention ever held there They adjourned without naming any one.agreeing to leave it to the Executive Committee. During the progress of affairs there was trouble between Col. A. W. Shaffer and one Jno. W. Betts, a white revenuer of Chatham county, when the latter called iShaffer a - liar and a scoundrel, repeating the epithet twice. Soon a.ter Shaffer stuck his hat on his head and left the conven tion in a body Wednesday's Charlatte Observer con tains the following: "Col. William Johnston desires us to state that he never uttered at Salisbury the language attributed to him in the Raleigh News and Observer of the 30th ultimo, and that never in tois experience, either in public or in private, has he made use of such vulgar and profane expres sions." Commenting on this the News and Observer says: We have no disposi tion to contradict Col. Johnston about this matter so as to raise any issue con cerning it. Our object in giving publicity to the statement has doubtless already been accomplished, and the State has been saved by a possible riot intended for use at the"North, to inflame the passions of Northern voters against the Southern whites. At least we hope so. We give the paragraph containing Col. Johnston's denial without intending to make any comment upon it whatever. There is but one plain inference to be drawn from the remarks of our Ral eigh cotemporary and that is that, if it thought fit to do so, it could early prove that Col. Johnston did make the re mark attributed to him. In view of this fact it is to be regretted that our cotemporary has decided to withhold the proof. .Driven Out.

The Cleveland and the Silver Star base ball nines of this city played a match game yesterday, which resulted in a victory for the former in a score ot 21 to 13 for the latter. The flags on the Custom House and on the American vessels in port were at half mast to-day as a token of respect to the memory of Hon. Charles Folger, Secretary of the Treasury,' who died very suddenly at his home at Geneva; N. Y., yesterday morning. The Presbyterians of the Scotch set tlements ot North Carolina, included in the ecclesiastical control of Fayetteviile Presbytery, will hofd an annual Sun day School convention at Big Rock fish Church, in Cumberland county, Sep tember 16th and 1 7th.

The Historical and Scientific Society will meet at Tienten Hall at 8 o'clock this evening. Prof. W. B. Phillips will race a paper on the subject of "Con tamination ot J)rinking Waters." The public generally and ladies especially are cordially invited to attend. Magnificent Fruit. Mr. Robert E, Lee, of this city brought in to us this morning six of the largest and nnest pears we nave ever seen. They were grown by him at his plantation at Little Sugar Loaf, in Bladen county, and are fair specimens of a lot received here to-day. The six weigh 6 lbs. loz., and the largest in the lot weighs 17 ounces. Of course, after this it is only necessary to say that they are pound pears. We think of sending them to the Exposition. - Base Ball. The. match game of base ball between the Mechanics1 and Electric clubs, at the Pine Grove grounds yesterday, was hotly contested and intensely exciting. A large assemblage of ladies and gens tlemen from this city were present and highly enjoyed the aport. The Electric nine were the victors, having scored one more than their antagonists The Mechanics intend to challenge them for another contest. Mr. B. G. Empie was the umpire, a duty which he per formed to the entire satisfaction of both clubs. - Capt. Manning treated the clubs with his accustomed and well known hospi tality, for which they speak of him in the highest praise and with profound gratitude. , Democratic Address. Col. John N. Staples, one of the Democratic Electors at large for North Carolina, will address the citizens ot Smithville on Friday, the 12th inst , on the political issues in vol red in the present Presidential campaign.' ' Col. Staples is one among the best orators in the State, is a forcible, interesting and instructive speaker, and we doubt not there will be a large out-pouring ot the Democracy of good old Brunswick to listen to his arraignment of the Re publican party; both . State and National. Boats will leave here on the morning of that day and will remain at Smithville until the speaking is con cluded, so that all who may; desire' can have an, opportunity of : hearing lfce speech. ' The Outlaw. The latest reliable information We have regarding PompeySneed is that he was near the corner of Fourth and Nixon streets last night, where he was amusing himself by picking a banjo. He was seen by a colored man who knows him. well and tho had considera ble conversation with him. Pdmpey, in the course of the conversation, said he s'posed.they were after him, but they hadn't got him yet! 'OinGrftflt.VflI One of the great needs of Wilmington is the encouragement of some im portant enterprise which shall not only call population and capital to our midst, but shall also be a means by which other industrial enterprises may be established. Although we have long maintained a well-established reputa tion as a naval stores market and have recently advanced materially as a cotton exporting city, the great improvements made in our river by which a much greater depth of water has been ob tained, giving largely increased com mercial facilities, galls for other enter prises to aid us forward in the pursui1 ot influence and prosperity. Our situa tion on the Atlantic coast i3 very favor able, as we aio much nearer the States of Tennessee. Kentucky and Ohio than any other port, and with railroad com munication complete to those sections we ought to control the shipment of their products. The Cranberry Iron Works and the vast coal mines which abound in East Tennessee are within easy reach of Wilmington- many miles nearer than to any other point on the entire Atlantic coast and our people ought tJ push every nerve to gain con- troi of this vast and important traffic. If railroad connections should be made with these important points either by way of Shelby or Lincoln ton. this city would at once enter upon a career of prosperity such as she has never dream ed ot. She would become at. once an important coaling station for sea-going steamers, calling for a large outlay of capital with a certainty of a profitable return. These remarks haye -been suggested by a rumor which has reached us to tho effect that parties interested in the Cranberry Works, in this State, and the Tennessee coal mines in Tennessee have.it in view to make Wilmington a depot for iron and coal and if the moral and physical support of our people can be secured we believe that the project may be carried out. A Monster Meeting. ,Our friend, Mr. E. G. Blair, who was present, writes us giving an ac count of tho Democratic meeting at Shelby. Ha says that it was the larg est political meeting thiit ho ever at tended and that he bad no idea that such an immense gathering was possi ble in a country towq. There were between 5,000 and 6,000 people in at tendance, and there" were some who placed the number as high as 10,000. Mai. C W. McClammy, Democratic elector from the Sixth Congressional District, was present and placed the number at fully 6,000, and said it was the largest and grandest oritpourrng that he had ever witnessed. The en thusiasm was intense and if anyone thinks that the Democrats are not in earnest in North Carolina and are not organized for the contest, they should have been at Shelby and have been con vinced of their error. Senator Vance came to Lincolnton on the narrow guage railroad, and as he tpok the Carolina Central train for Shelby, his wife, who was present, warned him to make a good speech at the latter place, and the distinguished Senator certainly obeyed her command to the letter, tor he made one of the best speeches that ever fell from his lips, and that is saying much. He ex posed the rascalities ot the Republican party both in State, and National politic as he only is capable of doing. Upon his arrival at Shelby. Senator Vance was met by a large cavalcade of mounted men with banners headed by a brass band who . had assembled to welcome one of North Carolina's most distinguished sons. It was a scene only comparable to his inauguration as Governor at Raleigh. The woods around Shelby would re mind one of the camping of a wagon train during the war. There were more than 1 000 horses and mules tied to the wagons and hitched in -other ways throughout the forest. .
