Senor Antonio Flores. in a letter to
the New York Herald, appeals to the
people ot the United States for aid for
surviving v ctims of the Spanish earth
quakes. He zrapbically depicts the
terrible scenes of suffering. In con
cluding he says: "In the hour ot the
misfortunes of Spain, we American8
must not forget our ties to the nation
which discovered America."
M. Louis Godard, the famou' French
aeronaut, is dead. One of his most
memorable expeditions was the voyage
in 1863 from Paris to Hanover, with
the Geant, of which Nadar was tbe
Captain, and which had a very perilous
descent. During the siege of Paris
Godard accomplished several aerial
ascents for the Government of the Der
fence.
The Massachusetts Legislature has
passed a bill providing tor the early
closing of liquor saloons by a vote of
130 to 77. The bill provides that no
sale of liquors shall be made between
the hours of 11 o'clock P. M. and 6
o'clock A. M , nor on Sundays, except
that if the licensee is licensed as an inn
liolder he may supply liquor to gue9ts
who have resorted to his house for
food or lodging
A well-known scientific man in Eng..
land has lately given an order to a
dealer lor a hundred specimens ot the
electrical eel, for the purpose of closely
studying the singular power possessed
by these creatures. Hitherto this has
not been investigated so far as to de
termine very positively what is the
nature of the marvellous emanation
tbat has generally been accepted as
electricity.
Iu Augusta. Ga., a weekly paper; the
Sentinel, has been started in the inter

paragraph is in the initial num
ber: "We are living here among tho
same people that once owned us. We
must get on together. There is no
where for us to go. . We could not go
if we wanted to. They could not send
us if they tried. We should thank God
for the measure of peace that exists
among us. It could be much worse.

Mrs. Burton, wife of the well-known
traveller, has always averred that since
England took the Koh-i-noor diamond,
proverbial for the ill luck it brings
nothing but disaster has attended all
concerning British India. Recent
events will more than ever sustain her.
Jack3on Daniel3, of Charleston. VV.
Va., was arrested last week for allow
ing his old and infirm mother tr Ireeze
to death" He had her put in the poor
house, but as he was a wealthy farmer
the authorities had sent her back to his
house. Tbe unnatural sor refused to
allow his mothqr to qoaie into his
house, but had her pujt in a log cabin
in the yard, where she died from ex
posure to the severe weather.
We agree with the News and Obser
ver Dat the failure ot the educational
bill to pass the Hone before the ad
journment of Congress is greatly to be
regretted. It says :
That measure whose failure we most
regret is the educational bill. In this
our people were greatly interested.
Whether it is viewed as a purely politi
cal matter or as a bcneGcent provision
promising needed educational advan
tages to our people, it was. so far as
North Carolina is confeijned, the most
important measure before Congress
We deplore that it was riot passed.
The measure had the support of both
of our Senators when it passed the Sen
ates and it is understood that every
Congressman in North Carolina, with
one exception, would have supported it
in the House, and yet an esteemed
cotemporary has characterized the bill
as "a dynamite package."
Household Matters.
Mr. T. Reynolds, 81G Walnut St.,
Philadelphia, Pa., says that be has used
the great pain-cure, St. .Jacobs Oil. in
his family for household accidents, and
in his own case tor severe neuralgia.
9tid "I aive you" he futher says, "my
full belief in its great virtures as a
cure."

Peter Pickett, colored, who some
time since escaped from the peniten
tiary. and was subsequently re-captured
and escapsd from custody at Goldsboro,
a few days since, while en route to pris
on for the second time, was again taken
into the hands of the law on Saturday
night by Oflicer3 S H. Terry and S J.
Bryant of the police force Pickett, it
seems, could not keep away trom his
old haunts in this city, and, as all the
polic men and other officers in the city
knew him, his capture was almost a
certainty. Whether he will be return
ed at. once to the penitentiary or lodged
in jail here until after the next term of
the Criminal Court is a matter upon
which the authorities had not decided
this morning. .

Tne Tramps.
For several days past there has been
a regular camp of tramps on tbe North
eastern border of the city, near where
the Union Oepot formerly stood. Their
number was variously estimated, with
25 as the maximum. Oa Saturday
night Chief of Police Brock directed a
raid to be made upon them, and Capt.
Wiggs, with a detail of policemen, went
to the place and succeeded in capiuring
8 of the vagrants, who were found in
an old box car. These were taken to
the guard house and locked up. Last
night another was captured, making 9

this morning. They were all young
men and some of them were quite re
spectable and intelligent in appearance,
and all claimed to be seeking employ
ment. They all appeared to be healthy
and robust with the exception of one.
who was paralyzed in his right arm.
One of the party, who claimed that he
came from Harttird, Conn., was re
manded for a further investigation in
his case, and the others were ordered
t" leave the city forthwith.

Kcligious Meetings.
The series ot meetings at the Fifth
Street M. E Church have already de
veloped a deep, sincere and serious re
ligious feeling. At the service yester
day morning 34 persons were received
into full fellowship in the church and
last night 0 were added to the num
ber, making a total of 43 in all who
were admitted to membership yester
day. Aside from these there were
23 penitents at the altar at last night's
services. The meetings will be contin
ued during the week, or as long as such
glorious results shall follow the zealous
efforts of the pastor.
Nothing Gained.
Sometime during Saturday night or
early on Sunday morning thieves broke
into the hardware store of Messrs. W.
H. Alderman & Co., but made nothing
by their efforts. They gained an en
trance through tbe scuttle on the roof
and made their exit in the same way.
This was rendered quite an easy task,
as, between the stores occupied by Mr.
W. S. Brigg8 and Mr. I. Hirschberg
there are steps leading to the top of the
buildings, and as the roofs are all flat.
it was but little trouble to travel across
them. After gaining an entrance the
thieves directed their atleetion to tbe
vault in the rear part of tho store, but
did not succeed in opening the door,
although there were many evidences of
their efforts to get at the contents. It
is thought that they did not give up the
job until it was near daylight, as the
dust had not settled fairly when it was
found out yesterday morning that the
building had been entered during the
night. There is as yet no clue to the
would-be thieves.
