He was not surprised at the position Con ner had taken, but be had never before kaowu a man in either party bold enough m defend nniiiinal assessments: never be fore knew a man to so glory in his own shame. He did not believe he correctly represented the people " of Michigan in committing them to the indorsement of such political corruption." A little breeze was created in the Senate the other day by Senator Windom, of Minnesota. lie is the Radical author of the Hegro move ment to Kansas. In the debate on the 'Army bill he showod that the troops were used at the polls in In diana in 1864, and gave the reason of it. We copy the Richmond States account: . "Windom enquired why troops were sent to the polls in Indiana at that time. McDonald said he didn't know. Windom. proceeded to iuform him by reading from a report of Jacob Thompson to Juduh P. Benjamin (the original of which as on file among the Confederate archives in the War Department), in . which he described the plan for capturing the Government of Indiana and turning it over to the Confed eracy, and mentioned both Voorhees and McDonald as in sympathy with the con spiracy. The reading produced something of a sensation, and will probably elicit re plies from both of the Indiana Senators. There is a serious disagreement among the Democrats over the War ner Silver bill. Thus far 'the breach widens. The Richmond State's spe cial of 18th says: A nrnminAnt Rtiuhern Senator savs 'the position of the party is not at all satisfac- 1 i . i. :j,. t,r KotinatA thorn seems to bo no probability of agreement.' The moderate Senators think it unwise to thrust aside 'such a pure aud able man as Bayard. It will be seen that the view of the Star of two days ago is in harmony with what was said by leading Democratic Sen ators. We quote from tbe State: "Others reiterated this view.and suggest ed the danger of causing the withdrawal of the hard money wing oi me puny, u mo possible loss of New York, New Jersey.and Connecticut. It would be better to keep the money question in tne uacagrounu uu fight the enemy upon issues upon which ii... riv r a unit. To do otherwise would be to endanger the prospect of a vic tory at the polls." . ' Spirits Turpentine. settlement in full with the County Treasu rer tnr thA nnflt tar vear.

If she is only an aceidental slayer then she ought to have been acquitted. : We regret to learn by telegraph that the Prince Imperial has met an early death m South Africa. He was slain by the Zulus.

A number of wagons arriving in town at day break on Monday morning to engage and haul out negro workmen to "chop out" the cotton, is a fact that shows three things: 1st, That crops are good; 2d, That labor is scarce, and no man need starve; 3d, That grass will grow in this region at any rate, in the cotton rows. - The "Old Relia ble" correspondent of the New York limea has been heard from again .with a two col umn letter that breathes of "Rings," and tells of "Rings," and smells of "Rings," and has a familiar ring to its tenor.

A man bv the name of McCall, of King's Mountain, was run over by the train three miles irom tnat piace. ine Charlotte Observer says: When the man was renr-heri his limbs anneared to be cold, but there was warmth underneath his clothing in the region oi the heart, in nis mroai wnrn rliftf.nvered SUSTMCiOUS looking CUtS, which Messrs. Sims and Berry think could not possibly have been made by an engine striking a man as this did him, and these marks gave rise to a decided impression that thn man had been killed and the body placed on the track. It was near King's Mountain that the body of a negro was run wpr hv a. train leas than two vears ago. In that case an investigation followed, which resulted in the subsequent hanging of an other negro at Shelby, it having been nrnvnd that ha had murdered the man and placed the body on the track to cover the crime. This may oe a similar case,iuougu it may be that McCall laid down on the track and went to sleep.

Th wiirm Tcitredtr :fl!orilns Nr row Escape of tbe Inmates of One . of tne BurnloK BuU4lna:B. s - Yesterday morning, about twenty min utes past 3 o'clock, the, alarm of, fire was sounded for the first time in several weeks. and was found to have its origin in a house on Castle, between Fifth and Sixth streets, owned by Mr; W. J. Mott,and occupied by Mr. John J. King. The Are was first dis covered by Sergeant George W. W. Davis, who lived close by and who was on his way down the street to go on duty. Seeing no signs of life about the building he hurried to the house and knocked loudly on the door with his club, but without arousing anybody.and bp then tried to kick the door shutter in, failing in which he went to one of the windows and tore the shutters off, having in the meantime to fight a vicious doe belonging on the premises that was trying to bite him. Mr. and Mrs. King.who are both said to be hard of hearing, were finally aroused and became aware of their peril, the fire by this time having spread through almost the entire building, and the room in which Mr. and Mrs. K. had been sleeping being filled with smoke. Mr. King passed his wife and children through the window, and then saved himseu, alter which Bergeant Davis succeeded in draw ing the bed, mattress and some of the bed clothinar through the window from the room occupied by the family, which was all the furniture saved. In the meantime the flames had spread to the adjoining building on the west, also owned by Mr. Mott, and occupied by Mr. Frank Melton, Sail maker, who succeeded in saving all of his furniture. This house was badly damaged, but not entirely destroyed. The fire, when first discovered, appeared to be immediately under the roof and. ad joining the chimney, and may have been caused by some defect in tbe flue. The fire department were on band with their usual promptitude end did much ser vice in preventing the spread of the flames. The heavy rain just previous to the fire, also had its effect. The two buildings were insured for $300 each in the Connecticut, of Hartford, rep resented in this city by Messrs. W. L. Smith & Co. Mr. King's furniture was also insured. ; But for the opportune arrival of the po liceman the result would in all probability have proven much more disastrous, aa the family were almost suffocated by the smoke when aroused to a sense of their danger. Tbe Old naplln:Blflet. There seems to be a very general desire, especially in military circles, to see the old Duplin Rifles reorganized. "This company was carried into service, in 1861, by the gallant Captain Thomas S, Kenan, the pre sent Attorney General of the Slate. They have the flag which they carried ; into ser vice pronounced one- of the "handsomest in the State and we ; hope our Duplin friends will at once come to the front and organize, thus adding another company to the Stale Guard. ,. Old Duplin is never be hind hand in any matters of public interestj and as tbe county can furnish as good ma terial as any in the State, we hope soon to hear that our suggestion has been heeded by them. Sampson county, too,' should follow suit, and add a good company to the State Guard, as she certainly can do. These two counties have (he best of ma terial, and we hope some go-ahead gentle men in each Of them will take the initiatory steps at once towards ensuring a represen tation "in the Guards.

Stephen Ilsslos, cc'ored.was first called. He was accused of making an assault, on Tuesday afternoon last, upon William Hill, Janitor at the Bank of New Hanover. The evidence went to show that Hanlon struck Hill in the face and knocked him down, and that the assault was entirely unpro voked, whereupon tbe Mayor ordered the defendant to pay a fine of $25 or be locked up in the city prison for thirty days. He accepted the former alternative. Hanlon is a Virginian, having been here only a week. In the case of Robert Martin and Jacob Thompson, for an affray, the first named plead a former conviction before a magis trate, although under bond to appear before the Mayor, upon which a continuance was had to enable the latter to examine into tbe matter. Willis Drake, the "Paddy's Hollow' Bhoemaker, charged with disorderly con duct, was next arraigned. Drake "al lowed" that he was subject to fre quent "spells,'? and when under their influence he didn't consider bimse If respon Bible for his actions, it leaking out in the course of his statement that the said "spells" were produced by whiskey. As he had been locked up since Tuesday the Mayor suspended judgment, informing the "Chief," however , that if he came before him again under any pretext he would give him double punishment.
