Gary, of Edgefield, Democrat, opened the ball to-day in a violent speech denouncing Willard and re flecting on Hampton. The tax bill will be reported to morrow. It provides liberally for schoote, but makes no provision for interest on the State debt. The tax liiioutilfl to five and one-tenth mills. Niagara Full Mold at Auction.

J Matters In Edgecombe. Hon. Kemp P. Battle returned yesterday from Tarboro, where he spoke last Wednesday to the people of that county upon the relations of the University to the agricultural interests of the State. A laTge crowd was present, including many farmers from Martin, Nash and other of the adjoining counties, and the people seemed to coucur very heartily in the arguments and ideas laid down in the address. Cotton planting in Edgecombe is about finished, and some of the cot ton is already up. There have been two light frosts within the past week, but neither of them did any appreciable damage. The people are very much .pleased with the workings of the bill estab lishing the Department of Agricul ture, and are approving it more land more the better they understand its workings. They are much taken with the idea of having the Tar stocked with fish, and are anxiously waiting for the transfer of the fiph hatching operations to that stream.

There were four interments in Pine Forest (colored) Cemetery during the past week, of which one was an adult and three were children. ' The northern through and way mail, which heretofore closed at 8.15 A. M., will hereafter close at 7.45 A. M. So Post master Brink informs us. There were two interments in Oakdale Cemetery for the week closing yesterday, the ages of the parties being 29 years, and 4 months, respectively. Some one robbed the fowl house of Capt. May, at the eastern extremity of Market street, a few nights since. Capt May was treated the same way not long ago Slowly rising barometer, south east to southwest winds, clear or partly cloudy weather and a slight rise in temper ature, are the indications for this section .to-day. A basket of very handsome flowers, a donation from Mrs. H. Webb, were raffled for at Capt. J. W. Lippitt's Store, yesterday, for the benefit of the Or phan Asylum. In consequeuce of the absence of the Pastor, there will be no services in St. Paul's Evangelical Lutheran Church to day. The Sunday School Association will meet at 3 o'clock. t Only 543 dog badges issued up to yesterday afternoon, or less than one third the usual number. A more deter mined and vigorous policy is threatened against badgeless dogs, commencing with to-morrow. The Morning St as does cirou late. Our city edition alone to day is 1,100 copies, the largest was'ever issued, except to supply some special demand, and the largest, we are quite sure, ever issued by any daily paper in North Carolina. The Register of Deeds issued Only two marriage licenses during the past week, both of which were for colored cou ples.

The presiding Elder, Rev. W. S- Black, is present. SUNDAY, subscriptions for tbe Pilot Fund. The merchant, mechanic, farmer, and men ot every trade ana proiession are more or less dependent upon commerce. Take it from our city and what would she become ? Deprive us of our shipping, and what would our city property ,be worth ? The above suggestions are simply made to call attention to the families of the pilots who recently lost their lives in pursuit of their calling in endeavoring to bring ves sels into our port. They need assistance, as all who are familiar with piloting must know that these faithful sons of exposure make nothing more than a living, and in this instance were suddenly swept away and given no time to provide for the future wants of their helpless families. The chari tably inclined can send their donations to the Star, or hand them to Messrs. John W. Galloway, George M. Craypon, and Rev. James W. Craig, who, being long ac quainted with the lost pilots and their fami lies, have been requested to take the mat ter in hand in our city and will visit our places of business, &c, to solicit aid for this noble cause, which should appeal to all our sympathies. A sweet Proceeding. Jonas Blocker, colored, was arrested yes terday on tbe charge of stealing molasses from Messrs. Kerch ner & Calder Bros. It seems that Blocker had been employed in the store for sometime past, and on Friday his employers received an anonymous com munication informing them that Blocker had been iu the habit of appropriating to bacco, snuff, molasses and various other articles belonging in the stoce and taking them home in buckets which he usually carried backwards and forth. The same day he was detected in the act of carrying off a bucket of molasses and was thereupon arrested, lie admitted drawing the mo- asses from the tank, but said it was only to make a little sweetened water and he had no idea that he had drawn so much into his bucket. Blocker had a prelimi nary examination before Justice Gardner, yesterday morning, who required him to give bond and security in the sum of $100 for his appearance at the next term of the Criminal Court. Pounding. What are we coming to ! We under stand from reliable authority that a large delegation of the Front Street M. E. con gregation on last Thursday evening stealth ily under the shade of night went to the parsonage and freely pounded their pastor, Rev. J. E. Mann, his wife and all his chil dren, to such an extent that fears are enter tained that they will not recover from the effects in days to come. We presume this ia one way tbe Methodists have of express ing their appreciation of their pastor and his family, aud the pastor seems to bigniy appreciate the deed, as well as the motive which prompted this delegation to do the pounding. Tbe Red RIeu to Parade. The two lodges of Improved Order of Red Men of this city will have a grand pa rade on horse-back on the 17th inst. They will be dressed in their regalia and will no doubt make an imposing appearance. The parade, which will be followed by a ball at City Hall at night, will be intended as a celebration of St. Tammany's Day, which occurs on the Saturday preceding, at which time the members could not conveniently turn out. This will be the first appearance of tite Red Men on parade since the establishment of the order here. The Stealing Mania Broke Out Again A raid was made upon the premises of a member of the printing fraternity, resid ing on Hanover, between Second and Third streets, on Friday night last. The thief had a key with which he unlocked the kitchen door, entering which he got a market basket, filled it with provisions from the safe and other articles, took a new gallon demijohn nearly full of syrup, and departed, having probably been fright ened off before fully accomplishing his purpose. No clue. memorial Day.

Several trifling cases for violation of the revenue laws were disposed of yesterday. after whieh the Court adjourned for the term. During the forenoon the Grand Jury came into court, and asked leave of His Honor, through their foreman, to make a presentment. Judge Brooks remarked that ordinarily it would be improper to read publicly presentments made by a grand jury, gout that he felt constrained to depart from the rule upon the request now made by the jury. The presentment was then read from the Bench as follows : We, the Grand Jury of the United States District Court, Spring Term, 1877, do pre sent J. J. Cassidey, Calvin Graham, Chas. H. Strode, A. M. Nelson, J. K. Hammonds, J. B. Thompson, James Eldridge, J. T. Basset, J. A. Ashe, J. W. Bryant, Troy Cashwell, N. VanSoelen, C. 8. Edwards, for a conspiracy in trumping up false and trivial charges against various citizens of this District, for alleged violations of the Internal Revenue laws, for the sole purpose and intent of obtaining from the Federal Government an increase of their official fees. (Signed) Will Watters, Foreman; Alfred Howe, J. E. Crow, G. W, Betts, J. H. Car raway, Samuel Northrop, John W. St. George, James C. Grimes, L. K. Skipper, P. Rourk, John H. Mints, E. S. Garner, Thomas 8. Watson, L. M. Cooper, John Gore, George L. Schutte, James F. Shine. His Honor, Judge Brooks, then remarked, in substance, that he had been under the impression for some time that improper in fluences had prompted some of the prose cutions which had been brought to the at tention of the court. The character of the witnesses in many instances was such as to influence a verdict in direct opposition to their positive testimony that such a state of things was seriously damaging in more ways than one, and that it was calculated to impair proper respect for a government whose officers, whether they be high or low, would lend themselves as instruments for the prosecution of innocent persons. He said, further, that such conduct was calculated to create a prejudice, leading to the escape of many who are really guilty. In conclusion His Honor announced his unqualified disapproval of the acts com plained of. Mr. Cassidey, we learu, left on Friday night for Illinois, where he has a married daughter. New Colored Odd-Fellows Lodge. A committee of Free Love .Lodgecon sisting of P. N. F.'s Henry Ellis, John T. Harriss and Jacob Johnson, instituted a new Lodge at Flemiogton, N.
