Until the President's order pro hibiting office-holders from main taining active connection with politi cal committees- national, State, or local and prohibiting assessments for political purposes, was actually issued, the array of office-holders in Washington quite freely declared that the report that the Cabinet had agreed to such a ridiculous order had been manufactured by "them damn literary fellers," the correspondents. Its publication to-day has thrown them into a flutter, and woful pre dictions are made in regard to its effect upon the fall elections. They say the REPUBLICAN ORGANIZATION CANNOT ' BE MAINTAINED tuTfio So nth nor in any part of the "border States," such as M aryland, Virginia or Missouri, unless Federal office-holders are allowed to manage the caucusses and conventions, be cause in that part of the country the office-holders are the brains of the party, and through them the negro vote must be directed, else the party will "go to the bad."

In this city the officers and Depart ment clerks are organized into State associations, which were recognized by President Grant as eminently pro per and patriotic, Every winter they held public receptions for the pur pose of raising funds, and President Grant, besides other high dignitaries, attended these associations and made it their special work to force all go vernment employes to pay assess ments, and go home to vote at im portant elections, under penalty of beincr ousted from office, ' North Carolina Radical mfolaterlus Jo Heater. Special dispatch to Philadelphia Times. Washington, June 22. Special Agent Hester having been attacked through a Washington journal by one Gorman, late Adju tant General ot .North Carolina, as a person without character or respec tabililty, has obtained from the State Department certified copies of letters a 3 1 on nie wnicn eommena nim in nign terms.

R., and that over a ridge forming a natural rail road, and the cost' per mile will fall far below the average cost of build ing railroads. If this connecting link was made, Wilmington, North Car olina's only seaport town of any note, would then have direct communica tion with this entire mountain sec tion. Why should this short space stand up as a barrier between the mountains and the seaboard? The citizens of the West would gladly patronize the "city by the sea" rather than build up flourishing places in other States,-and oar Eastern friends need the trade, were a few thousand dollars spent to perfect the railroad facilities.

Yesterday morning, about 2 o'clock, lor the .first time in several weeks, the 'alarm bells sounded for fire. It was some time before persons in the vicinity of the Market House could ascertain the location of the conflagration, and the alarm was sounded for two or three different districts before the right one was hit upon, and it was as certained to a certainty that the fire was in the first district, over in Brooklyn. It .originated in an unoccupied dwelling, on Taylor street, next to Fifth, and spread with considerable rapidity, destroying five houses on Taylor and Fifth streets, four of them the property of Mr. J. W. Robbins, and the fifth belonging to a Mrs. Maggie Macumber, a widow lady. One of Mr. Robbins' bnildings was quite a large one, of two story s, aud partly used as a store, the stock of goods, which belonged to Mr. Robbins, not being insured. Mr. R. esti mates his loss at upwards of $3,000, upon which there was an insurance of $1,800, as follows: Orient, of Hartford, $700, and Howard, of New York, $400, Norwood Giles, agent; and $700 in the Virginia Home, of Richmond, Messrs. At kinson & Manning, agents. The loss is a severe one upon Mr. Robbins, as his in surance will not, as he assures us, begin to replace the buildings, to say nothing of the loss of furniture, breakage, &c. We learn that Mrs. Macumber's building was insured in the Wilmington Mutual, but for what amount we have not ascertained. The fire department was on band as promptly as possible, under the circum stances, but the flames had attained too much headway to render their services available in saving any of the property de stroyed. " Grave suspicions are entertained that the; fire was the work of an incendiary. Decision of the Supreme Court 1b a Case or James Heatou. The Supreme Court has affirmed the de cision of the court below in the4case of Jas. Beaton, indicted for misdemeanor at the first term of our Criminal Court It will be remembered that defendant's counsel contended that because certain members of the Grand Jury that found the bill against Mr. Heatou had not paid their taxes it ren dered all bills returned by said jury null and void. The jury was purged of the non-paying members and there still re mained twelve, which His Honor, Judge Meares, rated was sufficient to make the in dictment binding and of full effect On tbis point the case was carried to the Su- preiDfi Ooart, and the ruling of Judge Meares has been declared the true one. This decision will cover all the other cases of a similar character. There was a fine of $50 and costs against Mr. Heaton, the case being one of those known as the "Inspectors' eases," which fine and costs will now have to be paid. There are quite a number of other cases of the same nature standing against him, which will probably be decided at the next term of the Court. Fourth of July Regatta. Qn next Wednesday, promptly at 12 o'clock, the annual regatta of the Carolina Yacht Club will be sailed over the race course of Wrightsville Sound. Two new yachts, constructed in this city since the last annual regatta, will partici pate in this race. They both being con structed after the most approved models, and to be commanded by expert sailors, are expected to add materially to the inter est of the rece. The Regatta Committee requests that all yacht owqers will enter their yachts with the purser by Saturday evening, and gives notice that all yachts will report at the club house wharf on the "Fourth" at 11.30 o'clock, as the race will start promptly at 12 o'clock. The tide being near, ebb at that hour, no indulgence will be allowed any yacht by which the race may be de layed. The Regatta Committee, in behalf of the. Club, extends to the public the hospitality of the Club, and a cordial invitation to be present. The numbers and names of the yachts, with their respective commanders, will he given between now and the day of the race. Accident en the Street Railway, Yesterday afternoon, between 4 and S o'clock, while one of the streetcars was passing on Fourth street, between Dock and Orange, on a downward grade, the car became unmanageable in consequence of some deficiency in the brake, and was sud denly precipitated against the horse with such force that he was knocked from his feet and thrown bodily across the track, while at the same time the momentum of the car was such that the two front wheels run upon the animal before it was stopped. J. C. Hill, who was. the only passenger on the car at the time, jumped out, and by ex erting his entire strength was enabled to shove the car back and thus release the horse, which, after a few minutes' restwaa able to rise and proceed, after the car had been replaced upon the track, from which it had been thrown by the shock. The affair created considerable excitement for a few minutes in the vicinity where it occurred. Colored Excursionists. The colored excursionists from Charlotte, who arrived here Monday night, went down the river yesterday morning on the steamer Waccamaw, accompanied by a number of their Wilmington friends, and returned late in the afternoon, apparently well pleased with their trip. Last night they were handsomely entertained by the - sc ored people of the cjjty.
