It worries hiruto hear that in such a campaign thel -small force of Gen. Howard j should have been sub divided so that our troops j could be fought in detail. He is of opinion, however, that! Gov. Potts, of Montana, had been imposed urxm in the early telegrams sent of the battle. The result is bad enough, he thinks, without exaggerating it, and for the sake of the army he sincerely wishes the trouble over. THE MISSISSIPPI CAMPAIGN'. - A statement has reached here from Mississippi that ex-Governor and ex Senator A. G. Brown, of that State, . contemplates running as an indepen dent candidate for Governor of Mis sissippi, and that he will basuppaed by the Republicans. Mr. Brown was a member of the United States Sen ate at the time of the secession of Mississippi, and left his seat in com pany with Jefferson Davis. He was afterwards a member, of the Confed erate : Senate. Ilia iriends here are inclined to doubt the statement. MR, RANDALL ON SUBSIDIES. I Some considerable interest has been Kcited here by the receipt of a copy I the Galveston News, containing an tcouut of an interview of its corres pndent with Mr. Randall, in which te latter is represented as favoring government aid to the!

Ci, paid us a pleasant visit last week en route to the new settlement of the Catholic colony in the Pi b$ Beds in Henderson county, N. C. Mr. Plumadore is a stockholder in said colony, and was largely instrumental in getting up that colonization scheme, j In addition to the party of pioneers, who,' we mentioned last week had passed through Spartanburg a few days since, another in stalment is to come on soon to prepare shelter for the remainder of the colony, composed of about eighty families. Mr. Plumadore reports the new settlers well pleased, and says there will be no difficul ty in inducing colonies to come South in the fall and winter that the recent dis turbances of the railroad strikers in the North and West will cause capitalists to seek investments in the South more readily than heretofore, and now is the opportune moment to induce immigration to come South.

Henderson has been appointed a Magistrate to fill the vacancy occasioned by the death of Mr. John : D. Love, and has duly qualified. ; Edward McFarland, colored, better known as "Pot Hooks," so we under stand, was arrested for disorderly conduct, yesterday, and lodged in the guard house. The Penitentiary "birds" were to leave for Raleigh last evening, in charge of Deputy Sheriffs Daniel .Howard and John H. Brown. There are five of them, two white and three colored. From Messrs.

' , The yacht Foam, we understand, has received a now set of sails from Phila delphia since the July regatta, and it is generally supposed that her sailing quali ties will be considerably improved thereby. We learn the yacht Restless, formerly the i(Ue,Walter, owned by Mr. S. P. Cowan, has challenged the yacht Frolic, owned by Mr. Geo. D. Parsley, for a race over the regular course at Wrfghtsville, the time to be hereafter designated, the chal lenge having been accepted. N. C, THURSDAY J Tbe Fire Yesterday moral be. . Just about the peep of. dawn yesterday morning, or about 4.20 by the clock, i the alarm bells' sounded for fjre,uwhich was found to proceed from the store of Mr; Cornelius' Jackson, corner of Third and Wooster streets. ' It appears that Mr. Jack son and his son, who were sleeping in a room adjoining the store, Were aroused by the cracking of the flames, by which time the fire bad attained such headway: that they had to hasten' their departure from the burning building in order to escape with their lives, only succeeding in saying' a few articles of clothing and furniture which they "were able to seize and carry put in tuir arms as they . rushed put into the street in their night Clothing. . : .-j - ,. , . Mr. Jackson has. no doq that tho, fire was the work of an incendiary, as unmis takable evidences of this fact were discov ered 5 by those who were first to arrive on the ground, the fire having been started under the portion of the building imme diately beneath where the kerosene barrel stood. The floor, at that point was tho roughly saturated with the inflammable material, which cauaed the flames to take hold more readily and spread with greater rapidity than they would have otherwise done. ":' ,.t:'; .!", The building was insured for $250, and the stock for $300, in the Home Insurance Company of New York, represented in this city by Mr. Norwood Giles. . The loss over and above the insurance was about $350 to $400, which falls quite heavily upon Mr. J., who is a very worthy and, industrious gentleman, and was but just recovering from losses sustained by an incendiary fire at the same place some five or six months agO. " ' ' r - - : . Tbe Pajrettevllle Mall. ' - The Post Office Department declines to grant the petitions for continuing the mail service from Lumbcrton to Fayetteville six times per week. So, the new arrangement, which goes into effect to-day, reduces the service via Lumberton to twice a week and increases the service via Warsaw to six times per week. The petition, sent from this city praying a continuance of tho daily service from Lumberton to Fayetteville was expected to have some influence at Washington; but we are not surprised that it had none at all, when the Second Assistant Postmaster General writes that "the reduction of service on said Lumber ton route, and the increase to six times u week, between Fayetteville and Warsaw, was made on recommenda tion of citizens of Fayetteville." 1 We had been informed that a petition signed by the Postmaster and ' many lead? mg citizens of "FByettoyirfe; 'Tagtnl there be no redaction of service oh ; the Xaimbertoa route, was forwarded to Wsh ington last week. Hence, the announce ment quoted above takes us entirely by surprise. The Wilmington petition did not oppose the Warsaw route, but only asked that no change be made on the Lumberton line. We presume a change will be made in the Warsaw schedule. If not, letters mail ed in Wilmington, say Thursday after noon,' will not reach Fayetteville until Saturday morning. If the Warsaw stage connects with the evening train from Wil mington it will give us much quicker time to Fayetteville. ! A r real t a Fugitive from Justice. A colored man by the name of Moses Divine, fwho is charged with having broken into the house of one Ishara Scott, colored, on the night of the 4th of July last, and stole a box containing about $5 or $6 in greenbacks and a set of regalia of the order of Good Samaritans, was arrested yesterday afternoon and committed to jail. A war rant was issued for him at the time, but he disappeared very suddenly and has since eluded the vigilance of the officers. Yes terday afternoon, however, information was received that Divine had been seen in the city, upon "which Officers Carr and Nash soon got upon his track, tracing him to Macumber's alley, between Cliesnut and Mulberry and Eighth and Ninth streets. Officer Nash entered the alley at its western end, and the fugitive, in fleeing from him, ran "slap" into the arms of Officer Carr, who had taken his station on Ninth street, near the eastern end of the alley. Tbe accused will have a hearing before Justice McQuigg to-day, at his office oppo site the Court House. Probable Fatal Stabbing Case at Warsaw. We learn that two colored men, named Kinion Best and Ebb Jones, of Warsaw, Duplin county, were on their way from the. colored Baptist Church, about 11 o'clock on Tuesday nght, when a dispute arose be tween them, which finally culminated in a fight, in which the knives of the respec tive parties were used asweaponsof offense and defence. The result was that Kinion Best was mortally wounded, receiving a severe stab in tho right breast, after which the knife was driven into his head and the blado broken ' off , after penetrating the brain to the depth of about one and a half inches. Jone9 also received a severe cut in the left arm. Drs." Hill and Hussey were called in to see the wounded men and pro nounced Best to be in a dying condition. Jones, who was not dangerously hurt, was subsequently arrested and lodged in jail. . A KacerorCAampleqelup. ' We learn that a race for the champion ship of small yachts, will come off over the regular course at Wrightsville, on Saturday next, between the: yachts Bessie Lee, of Masonboro', owned by Mr. O.
