The Syracuse Courier says that there are strong indications that the friends of ex-Presdeut Arthur throughout the State are actively moving to pnt that .entleBaa prominently forward in Re Jab'iean politics in New York. It is even said that they hope to nominate fra for Governor this fall, as a step ping stone from which to get back to the White House in 1888. The banks in the New York Clearing bouc that pay 2j per cent, interest have decided to reduce the rate to 2 per cent., claiming that they cannot afford to pay more.

Senator Don Cameron, who is now visiting his brother-in-law, Gen. Nel sin A. Miles, at Fort Vancouver, on the Pacific coast, gave an order before he left for the sale of bis residence at Washington.

Whether or not one could catch a ball thrown from the top ot Washing ton Monument led the catcher of a local base ball club to make a similar trial recently from the top of the waterworks standoipe iu Erie, Pa.

The system of the late Dr. Hughes Bennett is described as "treatment by restoratives directed to further the natural progress of the dis ease and supporting the vital strength." The Lancet states that the Doctor had lOocases of uncomplicated inflammation of the kings which he treated on this principle, without a single death. A Mexican historian makes a new attempt to show that America was dis covered in the fifth century, A.

Goddard and Dr. C.H.Robert?, were reelected. Msj. Winder and Maj. Sted man going out. Looking Seawards. A gentleman who recently spent a week in Charlotte te.ls us that the peo ple of that city and section are looking with longing eyes towards the coast this Summer. The attractions presented in the mountains seem to have become about exhausted and the longing is now for salt water, "a wet sheet and a flowing sea." Sm.thville seems to be the point t which they are looking most intensely and the outlook now is for a gay season this bummer in that good old town. Hotel Brunswick. The Hotel Brunswick, having been thoroughly overhauled and renovated, will be open the public for the Summer season on and after tbe 18th inst., by which time the Passport will have be gun her regular Summer schedule. This hotel will offer the attractions of a good table, a well ordered house and tbe amusements generally found at first-class Summer resorts. A good band of inu'sic has been engaged, and the pavilion will be found a cool and pleasant resort for the guests of the hotel. Rat Catching:. At the store on South Front street, now occupied by Messrs Giles & Mur chison, nine rats were caught st night in a trap. This morning they were carried out into the street and four or five rat dogs were called to catch them as they were taken out ot the traps. This occasioned quite a collection of people who wanted to see the fun. The dogs all seemed to bereadv for the sport, but one of the number, belonging to Mr. Arthur Holmes, seemed to understand the business and was more active than the rest, for he caught eight rats of the nine. He was a smali, shaggy dog and as a beauty would not stand much of a chance in a prize bench show, but as a rat catcher he was a pronounced sue cess and could discount all the others. All in need ol a Canary or Mocking Bird Cage, will do we!l to call at Ja. corn's Hardware Depot, and examine his large and fine stock. f Depot and buy your paints, if you want j It was quite cool last nigbt for tbe time of year. Praise Worthily Bestowed. We clip the following from the Nash ville, Tenn., Daily American. It quotes the language of one of our Christian ministers and fellow citizens and shows that he possesses grateful memories of the people with whom be was at one time intimately associated : The Rev. F. W. E. Peschau, of Wil mington, N. C, formerly pastor of the German Lutheran Church in this city, and who ha3 been spending a few days here with friends, has left for home tn time to conduct the Sunday services at hia own church in Wilmington. Mr. Peschau retains his membership in the Roya1 Arcanum here, and at the meeting of its council on Monday evening last he was called upon to speak. He did so. and in the course ot his remarks said he loved Nashville for her noble men and women ; for 6er public and her benevolent institutions; for her schools, her colleges and universities; but es pecially did he love the people here lor the personal reason that when he came to this city, the pastor of a compara tively poor church in an obscure part of the town, tbe best citizens took him by the band and encouraged him in bis labors. They took him into their hearts and did not ask about his wealth or the power of the almighty dollar. He said he ought to love the people of Nashville, and would be an ingrate it be did not. The Council was delighted with his speech, which was earnest and really eloquent NEW A SKMKNT8. JLXX SMITHVILLE, 1ST. O.
