Latest By Mail. J'igiu Washington. Washington, June 26. North Carolina office holders are still on the ragged edge. Collector Charles S. Winstead, of the Fifth In ternal Kevenne District, arrived in the city to-day to answer in person Secretary Sherman's request for his resignation. Winstead is a wealthy bachelor, wiio surrounded mmself with deputies, gaugers, and other subordinates, selected from among his kinsmen, and by that means swelled the family revenues, from this source alone, to upwards of $20, 000 per annum. When a Leading North Carolinian showed the publish ed list of this family tea-party to Secretary Sherman the Secretary muttered something about having been compelled to dismiss his own relatives from office, and intimated that however good an officer Win stead might be, he must step down and out. Very soon Winstead received a polite note asking his resignation; but instead of surrendering his com mission, which had comforted him for seven years, he got up meetings of his clan in two or three counties, ail of which enthusiastically endorsed the old Colonel. A private letter from Greensboro states that one meeting was attended by twenty-two men and boys, and another by six persons, mostly of the kith and kin or beneficiaries of Col. Winstead. After the meetings, the letter says, sub scriptions were taken up to pay the expense of telegraphing glowing ac counts of the people's spbntaueous endorsement of the Colgnel. Captain Albright, of Alamance, Mr. Henderson, "of Lexington, and Dr. Wheeler, of Salem, are in the city looking for Winstead's old shoes; and two more candidates, Llaynes and Creamer, of Davidson county, afe-eti the way. W. J. Clark, of Newbern, who was a circuit court judge under the re flme of Gov. Ilolden, is here looking for the mission to Brazil; and James Boyd, of Alamance, who was defeat ed for Congress last year by Scales, Democrat, asks to be appointed At torney for the Western District of North Carolina, in place of Lusk,who is thought to have too soft a place in his heart for the Douglas Dick combination. Lusk has just returned from a trip to North Carolina, which he reluc tantly took by order of General De vens, to bring two witnesses for the Government in the Franks case. INTERVIEWS WITH MR. HATES. Leading conservative Republicans of the Old .North State nave naa oc ,.ns'.rmftl interviews with the Prcsi dent and secretaries recentlj in rela tion to political affairs in that State. They assured the President that the interests or the party demand tne dis missal of every carpet-bagger from ntfW. sind the disruption of the Greensboro rine and similar combi nations of officials throughout the State. That their suggestions have hnd weiorht is apparent in the character of the few appointments aimadv made, and in the earnest efforts that are being made to get at the true inwardness ot marsnai Usihort nniiclafls' office. Whatever maT ho t.hfi whole truth about Doug iaa and his denudes, the strength and numbers of those interested in i-nneealinnr the facts and shielding ih cvnikv are too great to leave much hope that justice will be meted to the wrong-doers.

The St. Patrick's National Association has resolved to receive the Irish Catholic pilgrims on their return from Rome, on August 15th, with great eclat. Civil Service Reform. New York, June 2G. The Sun considers Mr. Hayes' or der, that officeholders shall take no part in politics, as a limited re-establishment of slavery, and says that Mr. Hayes has no more authority to pro hibit an officer from going to a cau cus in the evening, and taking an active part in its proceedings, than he has to prohibit his going to a par ticular church. The World takes a directly oppo site view from the Sun in the matter of Mr. Hayes' order forbidding office holders to mingle in politics, and says: "This order of the President's strikes at the tap-root of civil service inefficiency, irregularity, ex travagance and corruption. If this order be enforced, all else of re form will follow naturally and easily; officials will become the friends in stead of the enemies of the people, and the people of all parties will become their friends. Enforce this order and the expenses of the Na tional Administration can be enor mously reduced, for one official can perform the official work now per formed by two. The Virginia Canvass.

The special election for seventeen member8 of the Legislature, to repre sent Charleston county, was the quiet; est knowu since the war. The Demo cratic ticket, containing the name of fourteen white and three colored cit izens, was elected without serious op position, the republicans having de cided yesterday not to run any ticket. supreme Court Opinion. Raleigh News. 18. State vs. Heaton. A grand ury was drawn as provided by Re vised Code, cb. 31, sec. 33, sworn, impanncled and charged. During the court, and before this case was called, it was made to appear that some of the grand jury were disqualified, whereupon they were discharged to the number of six. The indictment in this case was found by the remain der of the jury, twelve in number. Upon his arraignment the defendant plead that one of the jury which lound the bill ot indictment was dis qualified, not having paid his taxes. It appeared in evidence that the juror had paid part of his taxes, but as to the rest the Sheriff had been enjoined from collecting that proportion of the taxes of all the tax-payers of the county in a suit which was not set tled till alter the taxes tor the year had been collected. Held, Objection was properly overruled. Defendant was indicted tor failure to pay into the treasury within thirty days after, collection certain license taxes. Defendant insisted that the failure must be wilful, and that no presumption of wilfulness arose from the non-payment, it being an act ot omission and not of commission. Held, That neglect to pay over in the time required by law being es tablished, the law presumed wilful ness, and the burden was on the de fendant to show the contrary. There is a distinction between ministerial acts (such as this) and judicial acts. In the latter the act to be criminal must be wilful and corrupt. The defendant moved in Supreme Court in arrest of judgment because the bill of indictment was founded on a private statute. Held, This ob jection was not taken below, and if thefe was any force in it the defect is cured by Batt. Rev., chap. 33, sec. 60, assuming the act (being one in regard to the city of Wilmington), to be a private one, it being set forth in the indictment by chapter and date, and its material provisions in corporated in the bill; defendant could not have been misled as to offense charged or defense he should make. Pepworth Dixon told this story to Boston gentleman, now visiting a London, who sends it to the Boston Post: "At a dinner given to President Grant, the other day, the Duke of Wellington wan present. 'How many men may your father have command ed at one time?' said the ex-President to the Duke. 'Why,' said His Grace, 'my father at one time had all the European forces under him.' 'How many might that have been?' coo tinned Grant. 'Well,' says the Duke, 'there were 60,000 English, 40,000 WILMINGTON, Germans, etc., etc.' 'Say 200,000 in all, eh?' (this from the President). 'Yes; about that.' 'Well, I guess I can beat your father, then,' says Grant, triumphantly, 'I have com manded a million!' " Spirits Turpentine. Gov. Vance is sick. The Oxford ladies in large num ber called on Mrs. Gov. Vance and were "mightily taken." The Raleigh News credits to the loreldighi an editorial that appeared in the Star concerning Mrs. Hayes. Oxford had a small fire on Fri day night a feed room and cow shed. Spencer and his red shirt fellows were on hand. According to a correspondent of the Charlotte Observer, Ben Seim, of Sal isbury, was the first to use a brake upon wheels.

Alamance Gleaner: Frank War ren, near Prospect Hill, in Caswell county, has a son, twelve years old, who weighs two hundred and twenty-five pounds, and is about five feet ten inches high. If the Alamance Gleaner had examined the Star of the 20th it would have seen the error corrected in regard to Col. Fisher. It was a typographical blun der merely, as we knew all about the legi ment and its charge. Statesville Landmark: Many farmers in Iredell and Rowan have made a move in the right direction, and begun to make their own fertilizers. In traveling through the country large heaps of forest leaves will be seen covered with soil and left to rot and make manure. We learn that Rev. J. D. Huf ham, having accepted the agency of Wake Forrest College, retires from the editorship of the Biblical Recorder. A born editor, an admirable writer, a genial gentleman, a man of scholarship and ability, and a chris tian. Such is our description, and we know whereof we affirm.

For the first time In several years there were two cases of sun stroke in the city. Mr. Scott Brown, the clever Clerk of the National Hotel, and a colored boy in the 4th Ward, whose name we were unable to learn. The indications point plainly to the warmest summer ever known to Raleigh. Raleigh News: We regret to state that the condition of J. M. Lovejoy, Esq., was unimproved up to 9 o'clock last night. Revenue collections in this district yesterday amounted to $11,011 87. On tobacco, $10,955 62; cigars, $1 25; special tax, $55. Total, $11,011 87. -. Chief Justice Pearson was confiued to his room by sickness yesterday. Black well & Co., of Durham, are making pre parations to double their manufacturing facilities this fall. Southern Home: Some years ago a Radical paper enquired if there were not "some more unhealthy consulates for the loyal med in North Carolina?" The wheat- producing capacity of this county has been amply demoustrated. In 1857, A. B. Davidson, Esq., raised 222 bushels on five acres of land, an average of 44 bushels per acre. He says that there was a good deal of waste in cutting the wheat, and is confident that the average was 45 bushels per acre. The President has pardoned Jo seph Thornburg, of Gaston county, con victed of illicit distilling. The Charlotte Observer says: "Mr. Thornburg was arrest ed in South Carolina on the 19th ot Janu ary, 1877, by McAlpiae and Taylor, reve nue officers. The theory of the defence was that the whole thing was a put up job by the enemies of Thornburg. He has been in the Statesville jail since the last term of the Federal Court till last Tuesday night, when he and another United States pris oner effected their escape."J Oxford Torchlight: We regret to chronicle the painful accident that be feliSammy Burwell, a lad of 14 years of age, a son of Mr. Henry Burwell, of Wil liamsboro. He had the misfortune to fall out of a cherry tree and shatter his left arm near the wrist. - A very sad and dis tressing death occurred at Grange Factory, in Orange county, on Thursday last A very promising young man, a Mr. Rainey, about 21 years of age, died from ths effects of a quart of whiskey which he drank the preceding Friday. Major Ryan, of insurance memory, attracts attention. The Torchlight says: Some one remarked in Captain "Buck" Smith's presence that they wondered what the "Major" would do in the penitentiary, and the Captain replied that he guessed he would forge horse-shoe nails. Charlotte Observer: The Co lumbia Register gives currency to a rumor that Mr. James Anderson has resigned the office of Superintendent of the Char lotte, Columbia & Augusta Railroad, to ac cept that of the Spartanburg & Asheville Railroad. Mr. Anderson is an excellent, practical railroad man. A few Au gusta watermelons were offered on the streets yesterday at prices ranging from 75 cents to $1.

There were two fine showers of rain yesterday afternoon.which will have a good effect on vegetation, aswell as.coollng the atmosphere and laying the dust. Nearly stationary pressure and temperature, southwesterly winds, partly cloudy weather and occasional showers, are the indications for this section to-day. The fire-alarm in the steeple of the First Presbyterian Church will be re paired this morning, and if the tapping of the bell should be heard between the hours of 8 and 11 o'clock it will likely be due to that fact. One hundred and twenty-seven mocking birds were received in Baltimore a day or two since from Wilmington, so says the Raleigh Observer. We are afraid you are only mocking us. They probably passed through. , Hamilton Polly, a colored boy, whose foot was badly mashed between the bumpers of two cars on the railroad, a short time ago, and who has since been here un der charge of the city physician, was sent to his home in Georgia yesterday morning. We are requested to state that in the report on Deportment, read at Misses Kennedy and Hart's school exer cises on- Tuesday evening, the name of Miss Mary DeRossct was inadvertently omitted among those placed on the Roll of Honor for excellent department. Found Dead In Hi- wield. feutuuer Hewlett was .louueu yesterday that a colored man by the name of Benja min Galloway, a resident of Cape Fear township, had been found dead in his field that morning, whereupon the Coroner pro ceeded to the place indicated, found the body as described and held an inquest over the remains. The widow of deceased sta ted that some time during the night her husband was aroused by the barking of the dog, and went out to see what Vas the mat ter, being under the impression that a neighbor's hog, which had been doing a great deal of damage to his field, had again broken into it and was playing havoc with the results of his hard labor. She heard him setting the dog on the bog a few min utes after going out, after which everything became still. Waitiog awhile and hearing nothing of her husband, she went to the door, the shutter of which she found open, but could see or hear nothing going on outside. She saw a light at the house of her neighbor, however, and sup posed that her husband had gone there to have a talk with the family about the depre dations of the hog. She then went to bed and to sleep. Early in the morning she got up and went out, when she found her hus band lying dead in the field, about a hun dred and fifty yards' from the house, having fallen upon his back. The jury examined the body, but could find no indications of violence, whereupon they returned a ver. diet to the effect that deceased came to his death from disease of the heart. He was an old man, apparently about 80 years of age. m m Tne German Ple-Mc foiiponad. Owing the to fact that it commenced raining yesterday afternoon, about the time the German pic-nic, under the aus pices of the Howard Relief F. E. Company No. 1, was about to begin at the Wilming ton Gardens, it was decided to postpone it until this evening, when it will commence at 4 o'clock. The arrangements of the committee are such as to ensure a most ex cellent and pleasant entertainment to all who may be present, the Howard boys never having been known to "do things by halves," whether in fighting fire or engag ing in the more enticing occupation of "doing the agreeable" in a pic-nician sense. Batblnc Within the City Limits. Boys and young men are again cautioned against bathing in the river any where be ¬ tween Castle and Harnett streets, during the day time, as there is a city ordinance forbidding it, and the penalty is $10 for each offence. The police have already given some of the offenders an inkling of what may be the consequences if the prac tice is continued, and it is intimated that hereafter the ordinance will be rigorously enforced. stealing from the Poor. The greatest piece of rascality and down right "cussedness" that we have heard of in many a day was the stealing of the mite boxes placed in the stores of Maj. T. H. McKoy and Messrs. C D. Myers & Co., for the Ladies' Benevolent Society. The boxes, which were stolen on Saturday night last, are believed to have contained some three or four dollars. Star. JUNE 28. 1877. in Is sen Burr and J amen School. The parents of the pupils attending this school were invited to witness the exercises in calisthenics, reading of composition, &c, at the School-room yesterday after noon. Excellent original compositions were read on "Woman's Influence" by Miss Mary W. Hardwicke ; "The Close of School," Miss Katie Barlow; "The In dians," Miss MeggieJMeares; "Self Sacri fice," Miss Mary Ambler; "Morning and Evening," Miss Salhe Huggins; "Home,' Miss Bessie Ledford; "Music," Miss Lina Hall; , Miss Sarah Lippitt. Miss Mai. Cowan, a young lady of about twelve summers, entitled her effort "Little at First but Great at Last." Miss Lyda Schenck compared "Life to an Ocean;" her comparisons were apt and striking. The compositions of these young Misses were really remarkable, and would have done credit to persons of much more ma ture age. After the compositions had all been read the youngest class was examined in what struck us as being an admirable system of imparting information, viz: By practical il lustration, with objects such as spheres, cones, cubes, &c, since it teaches the pu pil to think and apply in every-day life the instruction it is receiving, thus fixing the lesson learned indelibly on the mind. It was evident from the descriptions given of the various objects, without hesitancy, and from the suggestive similar objects named by way of illustration, that this plan is highly commendable. The exercises in calisthenics were very creditable alike to the participants and their instructors. The difficult figures and marches were gracefully executed; the scholars, seeming perfectly at ease, went through the different motions and marches with a unity of action that indicated care ful training. The exercises will close with a soiree to night, when the medals, &c, will be awarded. wants or the Fire Department. A correspondent, under the head of "Honorary Member," says the fire of Mon day night, at the corner of Fifth and Tay lor streets, furnished another instance of the deficiency in equipment of a very im portant member of our fire department, to wit: the Hook and Ladder Company No. 1. On the night in question one of the hottest of the season the truck of this Com pany, weighing over two thousand pounds, was drawn by seventeen men, for a mile or more, over some of the worst sand hills in town ihooin ? ai, and as was their duty, urg.ug the men by cheers, commands and entreaties to use their utmost endeav ors to reach the scene of the conflagration at the earliest possible moment; and, as a natural consequence, when they did arrive at the desired point they were reeking with perspiration and panting for breath. While they were thus toiling on their way the fire was having full sway, and though, when they reached it, they paused not, but, seiz ing axe and crow-bar, scaling ladder and grappling hook, right nobly met the enemy, still the time lost could never be regained and their efforts proved almost useless. In the meantime their gallant foreman had been overcome by heat antLexertion, but Dytne prompt application Ofpbe. proper restoratives was enabled to resume his du ties. This is only one of the many in stances ia which thousands of dollars have been lost to our citizens through the want to this company of a more rapid mo tive power, and one which will save to the members the vital force and energy so es sential in battling successfully with a fire after it is reached. To supply this defect the city should furnish one or two good horses for the use of the company, and we feel assured that the saving of property through this means would abundantly jus tify the additional expense. The attention of the Chief of the Fire Department and tie "City Fathers" is invited to this sub ject. - The Indian Helios on middle Sound Prof. Kerr. We were informed by A. R. Black, Esq., who was in the city yesterday, that Prof. Kerr, the State Geologist, was expected to arrive on last evening's train, with the ob ject of visiting his plantation on Middle Sound, in this county, to examine the spe imens of Indian relics which have been un earthed there recently, an account of which has been given in this paper. He has in his collection two or three skulls in a very fine state of preservation, which bear the most indubitable impress of having belonged to Indians. Tbe Heat Yesterday. Until about 4 or 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon the heat was intense, the ther mometer in this office indicating as high as 95 degrees, two degrees higher than it has been this season; and at Messrs. T. W. Brown & Son's jewelry store as high as 99 degrees. After the rain, however, it fell twelve degrees in a very short period, and finally got down as low as 81 degrees in our office. The rain and electricity combined cooled tbe atmosphere wonder fully, and everybody was pleased with the change. Yacht Prizes. The prizes, to be awarded to the winning boats in the coming race on tbe 4th of July, are now on exhibition at Mr. Honnet's store. The first prize is a large silver fruit or flower stand, gold lined, with handles of silver mermaids; the second, a very handsome pickle stand, with cut-glass bot tles; and the third, a handsome silver gob let, gold-lined, with a representation of Neptune riding on the back of a dolphin They are all very tasty, and will be worth winning. !l4 , ' ? WHOLE NO. 3,087 The Heaton Case. There was another point decided by the Supreme Court in the case of James Hea ton, alluded to yesterday. Counsel for de fendant contended that the withholding of the money paid by the inspectors was not with any wilful or corrupt intent. Judge Meares ruled that if the money was with held beyond the time prescribed for its payment to the proper custodians autho rized to receive it, the law presumed a wil ful and corrupt intent. The Supreme Court sustained the decision of the Court below on this point Since the above was written a digest of the opinion of the Supreme Court in the case has come to hand and is given else where.

SCHENCK'S PULMONIC SYRUP, SEA WEED TONIC, and MANDRAKE PILLS. These medicines have undoubtedly performed more cures of Consumption than any other remedy kaown to the American public. They are compounded of ve getable ingredients, and contain nothing which can be injurious to the human constitution. Other re medieaadverUsed as cures for Consumption, prob ably contain opium, which is a somewhat dangerous drug in all cases, and if taken freely by consump tive patients it must do great injury ; for its tenden cy is to confine the morbid matter in the system, which, of course, mast make a cure impossible. Schenck' s Pulmonic Syrup is warranted to contain not a particle of opium: it is composed of powerful but harmless herbs, which act on .the lungs, liver, stomach and blood, and thus coirect all morbid se cretions, and expel all the diseased matter from the body. They are the only means by which Consump tion can be curea.and as Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup, Sea Weed Tonic, and Mandrake Pills are the only medicines which operate in this way, it is obvious they are the only genuine core for Pulmonary Con sumption . Bach bottle of this invaluable medicine is accompanied by full directions. Dr. Schenck is professionally at his principal offipe, corner Sixth and Arch Streets, Philadelphia, every Monday where all letters for advice must be addressed. RAXES OF ADVERTISING.
