But, notwithstanding all this, the settlement of the question cannot be very distant, if we may judge by the present aspect of affairs. Who will say that peace and har Eony do not prevail in South Caro lina now? One hundred guns were fired at -Edgefield, S. C, when the cess that Gen. M. C. Butler had ken seated in the U. S.

The colored fire company, in full uniform, formed a processioB, and, waiting upon Mrs. Butler at her residence, tendered their congratulations over her hus band's admission. Mrs. Butler and ir children then paid the most amia ble and thoughtful attentions to the colored firemen, who departed with roosiog cheers for Gen. Butler and his imily. . ' . . . The Marshal-President received a legation of Senators and Deputies ho represented to him the disas trous depression of trade. He is rep resented as being much moved, and as declaring that his intentions were the purest, that he would do nothing that was not for The interests of his Gantry, and that he would maintain republican institutions in their integ rity until 1880, when his term of office expires. We shall be delighted to find that his future action com Prts well with his fair words of pro mise. We would rather believe him 1 man of honor and fidelity than a "aurper and traitor to France.

Then when Dorsey offered a resolu tion requesting becretar Schurz to furnish information to the Senate, Conkling at once amended it by strik ing out requested and inserting di rected. These are criven to show the animus of the New York Senator: hut jit nis great battle is over the,New Yofl nominations, and in and out of Con gress this morning politicians talked of little else. It was agreed that if he succeeded in ha vine the Presi dent's nominations defeated, then Mr. Hayes would be as powerless as Andy Johnson! and have no party to support him in either -except Stanley Matthews. ; Vapltmllsta la Waabtncton Preparing; to Take Advaniase of silver Infla tion.

Badger, United States District Attorney, made a motion to remove from office John Robin son a United States Commissioner at Ool'dsboro, for transcending his duties as an officer. The charges against Robinson as reported to Major Badger and supported by competent proof were, that he had on divers occasions imposed fines on defen dants tried before him and in one instance imprisoned a man on his failure to pay the fine, and the man is now in jail.

This sad occurrence took place on Monday of last week.- Her mother left her to go to the spring, and her clothing accidentally caught fire, and she was burnt to death. ; Goldsboro Messenger : We re gret to learn that the grist mill and gin house on the Kinchen Smith place, in Saulston township, about six miles from Goldsboro, ' were destroyed by fire on Sat urday last. It was the property of John R. Smith, Esq., and involves a loss of about $2,500, covered by $1,500 insurance. Statesville Landmark: Mr. Cas per Cinder, a worthy farmer who resides near Turnersburg in this county, we regret to learn, recently lost twenty large, fat hogs, having died with cholera. Many, other farmers in the Turnersburg neighborhood have sustained equally as heavy losses. The disease has been prevalent in portions of Iredell for several months. Charlotte Observer: The coun sel of Dick Smith, colored, sentenced at the last term of Mecklenburg Superior Court to be hanged on next Friday, the 14th, yesterday received from the Governor a respite till the 11th of January, in order to give him an opportunity to investigate the case more thoroughly. Mail agents state that the mails on through lines arc heavier than they have ever been. You can rub a handkerchief all over one of the coaches on the Air Line train as it leaves Charlotte, and it will scarcely be soiled. That's a road for you. Weldon News: Wm. Garner, of Northampton county, one of the State's witnesses in the Moody-Brantley homicide, died on Friday last of congestive chill. The protracted meeting still continues under the direction of Rev.

Seaboard & Roanoke Railroad. , ; ; ; Hillsboro Recorder: A man evi dently bent on a long journey, passed our office on Friday, perched in a wheelbarrow, and drawn by one horse which worked between the handles sulkey fashion. It did not look comfortable for man or beast, but the success of the mode may revive the idea of Remington's one wheel sulkey. Major Lamer,Icolored, of this county, sent to the penitentiary for five years for the larceny of harness, &c., has been par doned by Gov.

Garrell, Superinten dent of the County Work House, who has been confined to his room with sickness for the last three months, was on the streets yesterday, v Rising barometer, northwest to northeast winds, increasing to brisk or high along the North Carolina coast, and colder, clear or partly cloudy weather, are the In dications for this section to-day. The receipts of cotton at this port yesterday amounted to 1,894 bales, the sales, as reported, to 400 bales, and the exports to 2,849 bales, of which 1,192 bales were coastwise, and 1,657 bales foreign. Burgaw is busy getting ready for the session of Pender Superior Court, which convenes at that'place on Monday next. Six new buildings are going up there, including a hotel of very considera ble proportions. The Hook and Ladder Company did noble service at the fire Wednesday af ternoon, in saying cotton from the flames, and in scattering it so that the engines could play upon it. They were frequently deluged with water, but persevered in their efforts. The Cape Fear Steam Fire En gine remained on duty at the fire at the de pot all night Wednesday night and was relieved early yesterday morning by the Little Giant. It was the unanimous opin ion of our firemen that a cotton fire is bard to extinguish. ' Chase and Capture fa Tblet. . Considerable excitement was created in the neighborhood of the Purcell House, last night, shortly before 8 o'clock, by the efforts of the police to capture an alleged thief, Alfred Jones, a colored boy, was noticed on the wharf with a bag of cotton in his possession, and when hailed by the policeman on that beat he dropped the bag and ran. Officers Robert Green and Wm. Frost gave chase, when the boy final ly darted into the alley adjoining the Pur cell House, upon which Officer Frost dis charged his pistol two or three times over bis head in order to make him halt, but without effect The officers continued the pursuit, however, and finally captured the fellow on , Second, between Princess and Chesnut streets, when he was lodged in the guard house. The bag in which the cotton was packed was marked W., C. & A. 1 An Old Acquaintance Beard From. A letter was received by a lady of this city, a few days since, from Capt. Terry, formerly of the schooner Anna Shepard, who is well known . in this port. Captain Terry left here about two years ago, in the vessel alluded to, and while lying in one of the Haytien ports he lost nearly all of his crew with the Haytien fever, and was finally stricken with the disease himself He finally recovered sufficiently to return home, but has been lying ill at a hospital in Boston for some time past It was gen erally supposed that the vessel was lost, and the many friends of Captain Terry will be glad to hear from him, and that he is now in a fair way to recover from his long illness. - A Good Snowlnc One of our Brunswick county farmers who was on a visit to this city yesterday, gave the result of his experience during the past season in raising corn on the swamp lands of that county. He says that he made fully seventy-five bushels to the acre, and found it an easy matter to gather as many as eleven ears without moving from his tracks! He planted five grains to the hill, and allowed a distance of five feet between the hills in one direction'and three feet in the other. This is considered a re markable good , Bhowing, considering the quality of the land, and should encourage others to try their skill in 'draining, im proving and bringing into cultivation some of the abundant swamp lands now lying idle in this section. v, , . . y Vbe Iitltneran Feetlval. ; I The festival at Meginney's Hall last night, under the -auspices of the ladies of the Dorcas Society of that church, was, we are glad to learn, a graHd success in every respect ,Tlie attendance was large, and the good .things prepared for the occasion went off like "hot cakes," as well as the Christmas toys, cakes, presents, &c. The affair was enjoy?5!exceedingly by all pre sent, and it is reasonable to expect that the repetition of the festival, this evening, will be quite, as liberally patronized. The ladies feel very much encouraged by their success last night, and extend a cor dial Invitatiod to their friends to be present this evening.

Weil, Pirectors J. t Macks, Trustee. The Case of Swepion A sal net the City of Wilmington. In the U. S. Circuit Court at Raleigh, on Wednesday, His Honor Judge Brooks pre siding, the case of R. R. Swepsoh vs. City of Wilmington was decided ia favor of the defendant and against the plaintiff and sureties for costs. , In order to a proper un derstanding of this case, we would state that shortly after the war there was an act passed by the Legislature to fund into 8 per cent bonds all the outstanding indebt edness of the city, including bonds that bad matured.) Under this act there were ten bonds of $1,000 each issued to James Dawson, in payment of a note for $15,000 for money borrowed by the City of Wil mington in the early ; part of the war. These bonds were issued by a Democratic Board of Aldermen, composed of some of our leading citizens, and the interest was paid on them regularly till the Republicans took charge of the City Government, when the bonds were repudiated on the ground that the money originally received for the $15,000 note was spent for war purposes "in defending the Cape Fear river." In the meantime, however, before repudia tion, the ten bonds had all been sold by the original holder, and now ia this suit one of the parties to whom they were sold claims interest from the city on the ground of being an innocent holder, for the value of which claim the city has, now success fully resisted for the second time, on the plea that the debt was "created in aid of the rebellion," a former decision to the same effect having been made in our Su preme Court. 'ig v Navasaa Guano Company Annual meeting. t. The annual meeting of the stockholders of the Navassa Guano Company, of Wil mington, was held at their office, in this city, yesterday morning. The former officers were all unanimously re-elected, viz: President Hon. R. R. Bridges. Secretary and Treasurer Donald Mac Rae. ... f Superintendent Col. C. L. Grafflin. Superintendent of Agencies Col, Wm. L. DeRosset. Directors R. R. Bridgets, John C. Graf flin, Smilie A. Gregg, Edward Kidder, F. W. Kerchner, Walter E. Lawton, and W. S. Dunan. j The reports of the Treasurer represent a healthy financial condition, and prove the popularity of the company's fertilizers. The result of the company's experiment in cultivating rice upon their rice lands was regarded as so satisfactory as te induce them to make arrangements for planting more extensively next year. It gives us pleasure to chronicle the foregoiDg evidence of success on the part of so enterprising a corporation. What benefits them benefits us all. Destruction of Flower Gardens. It is certainly very provoking, to say the least of it, for a person who has bees pay ing particular attention to his flower gar den for years past, collecting together all the choice plants he could find, nursing his evergreen borders with the most assiduous care, and watching the growth and devel opment of the tender plants and flowers from day to day and week to week, admi ring their ever increasing beauty, expan sion aud strength, to wake up some fine morning and find that a cow one of those useful but mischievous creatures that roam the streets at night seeking what they may devour--had broken into his lovely garden and made a clean sweep of plants, flowers and evergreens, the product of so much' and such long continued care and- atten tion. It was a sufficient provocation, it seems to us, to make the owner of the gar den declare that if he had caught that cow on his premises be would have made her a fit subject for the butcher, and so we told our friend, residing near . the corner of Eighth and Dock streets, when be gave us the particulars of the raid upon his garden Tuesday night An Unsafe Hrlds;. - Mr. David S. Sanders, one of the mem bers of the Board of County Commission ers, having reported his suspicions, derived from personal observation, that the county bridge over Smith's Creek, just beyond the northeastern limits of the city, was in an unsafe condition, yesterday J. G. Wagner, Esq., Chairman of the Board, accompanied by Messrs. F. A. L. Cassidey, R. G. Ross and N. Carr, proceeded to give the; bridge a thorough j examination.; The flooring, &c, they found in a good condition,' and to any one passing over the . bridge it would seem to be all right They procured a small boat, however, and upon examination of the sills, braces, ' posts, &c., they found them in a very advanced. stage.of decay, so much so that , they are - unanimous in, the opinion that the bridge is entirely .unsafe, requiring thorough and immediate repairs, if not a new bridge altogether. The result of their observations will be embodied In a report to be presented tq a meeting of. the Board of Commissioners to be held to-mor- row. , t- 'j,,- :.: iA Dwelling earned.' , .t1:I;tf..f 'fit' By a special telegram to the Sxab, re ceived last .evening, ;we learn that the dwelling of Mrs!
