lish farmers and families left Liverpool for
Texas. Two companies of High
landers before Cabul fought two thousand
Afghans and beat them; the total Afghan
force numbered eleven regiments with ar
tillery; the whole country is wild with ex
citement and the people would rise at the
slightest British reverse; it was expected
that the whole British force would to be

The Liberals lost 1 10 seats by the recent
election's in Qermany . - A French
cotton mill was burnt, loss $200,000.
No further news has been received at Army
headquarters from the Indian war; Merrill's
report is criticised for its failure to report
the situation at Milk river. Report
of the cotton crop in the eastern counties
of (bis State chow a decrease as compared
wjthjast year. A Molly Maguire was
uauged in Pennsylvania yesterday for a
murder committed in 1874. A lieu
tenant with Merrill's command gives fur
ther details of the relief of Payne's com
inaud; Major Thornburgh's body has been
recovered. ' ; The Gale City Guards, of
Atlanta, were the guests of the Fifth Mary
land Regiment at Baltimore, uud were

turpentine firmer at 30304c; rosin un

before the war, has been revived at
New Orleans with William M. Bur
well as editor.
The ost Office Department has
determined to adopt the most vigor
ous measures to make its decision ef
fective in regard to the transmission
of lottery matter through the mails.
Ex-Senator Dorsey, Repubiieau.of
Arkansas, is fully satisfied that Grant
will be nominated for President, and
that fa is invincible. He says also
that both Foster and Cornell will be
elected, and that Ohio and New
York are safe for Grant. So much
for this Stalwart's opinion.
North Carolina is to have an Independent
parly next year. North Carolina is a bold
State. Baltimore American , Sep.
The only Independent movement
North Carolina will probably have
will be one got up by the Republi
cans. The Dcmoorats do not propose
"to divide" that their enemies may
"conquer."
The Virginia papers have been
fighting the Readjustee (the Mahone
set) with figures, faots, logic and elo
quence. The Richmond State now
hurls a scientific brick at them.
Rear it :
"Herbert Spencer says that morality is
a e veloped through evolution, and the fittest
must survive is the moral as well as phys
ical world. If tbis be trae, what possible
ctMteee is there for the Readjustee to sur
vive r
Row true it is we cannot say, but
it is reported that the Ohio Demo
crats concluded that it was best that
Southerners should not make speeches
in Ohio. It is said tbis explains why
Senator Vance and others who bad
been invited did not participate in
the canvass. No Southern speaker is
to be asked North. That shows how
the bloody shirt flaps.
John Logan challenges all walkers
to the front. He proposes to "any
person in the United States" to walk
fifty boors without eating, drink
iog or sleeping, the man making the
greatest number of hours to take the
proceeds, and he adds, "Man and
money ready." Now let the North
Carolina pedestrians who have been
training all summer take a leg and
pocket the "money."
At 10 o'clock at night, October
9th, 1879, in our office, the tbermom
ter stood within a fraction of 84 de
greee. Thus far the heat has been
most extraordinary during the month.
In the day the thermometer has
ranged from 82 to 85 degrees. We
cannot recall such a heated term in
October. It has been general in
some sections of the State it has been
as high as '90 degrees.
The
VOL. XXV. NO. 16.
A correspondent of the Washing
ton Post, writing from Cincinnati on
the 6th inst., says the Democrats will
probably carry the Legislature, but
will fail to carry the county offices
that pay. He thinks Taft will suc
ceed Thurman in the Senate if the
Legislature should be Republican,
but Thurman will certainly be his
own successor if the Democrats are
successful. The carrying of the Leg
islature is much more important than
eleoling the Governor, because not
only does Tharraan's election hinge
on that, but also the complexion of
the delegation in the House of Rep
resentatives. The Democrats had
Control of the last Legislature, and
redistricted the State. If the Repub
licans get control they will redistrict,
and leave the Democrats not more
than six members of Congress.
The Irish living in New York are
going to hold a rousing meeting at
Cooper Institute. The object is not
to excite revolution but to encourage
their countrymen to come to the
United States. They think this is
the best way to teach England a les
son. The New York correspondent
of the Philadelphia Ledger writes:
"The idea is, that if a wholesale emigra
tion from Ireland could be started at this
time, England would become alarmed at
the threatened depopulation of the country,
and would voluntarily make concessions to
home rule which would not otherwise be
listened to, at the same time that the land
lords, as a matter of self-interest, would be
but loo glad to reduce their tents, to keep
their tenantry at home. Should there be a
disposition to act on the suggestion, on the
other side, it is believed that funds could
be ruiseii here, wilhoul any difficulty, to
carry it into effect. The sort of labor that
Ireland can supply is said to be in great
demand at present at the West and North
west, and its transfer thither would not be
a difficult matter."
We have received the first number
of Sale's Weekly, and a handsome,
well arranged and attractive paper it
is. Price $2 a year, cash in advance.
It is published at Raleigh, P. M. Hale,
editor, with Fred. A. Olds tn charge
of the local department. Mr. Hale
has had considerable newspaper train
ing, is a practiced and foroef ul writer,
and knows how to make a readable
and useful paper. Mr. Olds has done
service as city editor of the News.
They have our best wishes. That
veteran editor, Mr. Edward J. Male,
resumes his labors as the New York
correspondent. He will add no little
to the interest of the paper, which
will be thoroughly Democratic.
That notorious reverend murderer
of Connecticut, W. H. Hayden, who
is believed to have first deiioured and
then killed his victim, is again to be
tried for the offence. On the first
day the trial hung fire over an error
in the indictment. If the fellow is
really guilty of the horrible crime
charged it is to be hoped that he will
have full justice and a quick shrift.

Raleigh Farmer & Mechanic:
We learn from Auditor Love that the origi
nal draft of the Constitution of the "State
of Ffankland." (now Tennessee), North
Carolina's rebellious young daughter,
turned up recently among tbe old docu
ments on file. Handsome new houses
are going up on nearly every street.
Raleigh Farmer and Mechanic:
A gentleman who has exported Urge quan
tities of jute, manilla, &c, from India,
for many years, says if our people will go
into the culture of jute he will come down
and set up the machinery for its manufac
ture, either at Raleigh or any other conve
nient point. South Carolina is already
making extensive tests at jute-raisiog. .
Raleigh News: The following is

The North Carolina Farmer
publishes ah article in reference to the man
ufacturing of shoes at the penitentiary. It
says we heard a most worthy shoe-maker of
the city of Raleigh, who has a family to sup
port, say that the mantuacturing or snoes
at the State Penitentiary was ruining his
business, and he would have to move away.
We submit the question, is it right for the
State to interfere with the rights of private
industry in this way ?
Superintendent Mills, in bis Sep
tember report of the Orphan Asylum, says:
'Our hospital, though not entirety nmsneo,
is occupied, and our doors are now open to
a larger number of orphans. During Sep
tember two orphans were adopted, and
several others went to honorable employ
ment. One boy, who ran away in August,
was arrested for crime in September. He
came here too late, being about fourteen
years of age, and posted in every vice.
Wadesboro Herald: Pee Dee
Baptist Association meets in the Baptist
church, in Wadesboro, to-morrow evening.
We learn that there is a meeting or
more than ordinary interest in progress at
the Methodist church in Lilesville. We
sa w Rev. Mr. Guthrie, the pastor of the
church, on Saturday last. He says it is the
most remarkable meetingneever witnessed.
Up to Sunday evening there had been 22
professions, and at night there were 39
penitents.
Charlotte Observer: Mr. A. L.
West, architect, of Richmond, Va.. arrived
in the city yesterday for the purpose of
drawing the plan for the new Baptist
Church. Mr. A. B. Myers has dis
covered on his place, twelve miles from
Wilkesboro', what he conceives to be a
valuable silver mine. As Mr. John
Hoover, a resident of Lincoln county, was
driving home from church Sunday, the
coupling tongue of the carriage broke. This
frightened the horses and they began to
run. The vehicle was turned over, its oc
cupants were thrown out, and a little child,
four or five months old, in Mrs. Hoover's
arms, was instantly killed. The lady her
self also received painful bruises.
Charlotte has been singularly free from
fires during the last six months. Within
that time there has scarcely been one
worthy of mention.

N. C, FRIDAY OCTOBER 10, 1879.
On tne War-Haiti.
It has leaked out lhat the "Deacon" (so
known by bis friends) shaved up a day or
two since, put on his good clothes (so as to
defy recognition, some one wickedly sug
gested), and embarked on the steamer
Elizabeth for Holmes' wharf, where he was
to take passage in a private conveyance for
the Town Creek neighborhood, to indulge
in a little recreation, hunting, etc., for a
few days. Now let ail "allergaiters" and
sich keep a sharp look out, lest the "Dea
con" should fit a key to their mouths and
ock them bard and fast to the shore ; and
likewise the coons and the 'possums, and
their "sisters and their cousiBS and their
aunts," who inhabit the wild woods and
forests of old Brunswick, should keep their
eyes skinned, "for the avenger is at their
heels. The "Deacon" has the reputation
of being a good shot on the wing, and
especially successful as an artillerist,
in consideration of the fact that
he was attached to the engineer corps (of a
steam saw-mill) during the late "unpleas
ant neap." And, finally, it is recommended
that a delegation from the various base ball
clubs meet our "Deacon" at the boat on bis
return, in readiness to take charge of the
various zoological specimens, of which it is
expected he will have a large collection
Criminal Court.

Funeral of captain Hooker.
The funeral of Captain Samuel Hooker,
late commander of the British barque
George Davit, who died on Wednesday
morning last, took place at Smith ville yes
terday. The body was conveyed from the
ship to the shore at 12 o'clock. A huge
concourse of citizens followed the remains
to the Methodist church, where the ser
vices were conducted by Rev. Dr. Bark
head and Rev. Mr. Wiley. Thence the
procession repaired to the cemetery, where
the remains were interred. Quite a num
ber of floral emblems, wreaths, &c, had
been prepared and were placed upon the
grave by the ladies of Smithville, which
will be both soothing and gratifying to the
bereaved family and widow in England,
evidencing, as it will, the kindness and re
gard manifested by the citizens of Smith
ville. and especially the ladies, on the
mournful occasion.
Quite a number of gentlemen from tbis
city were present at the funeral.
We learn that Mr. Campbell, lale first
officer of the George Davit, has been placed
in charge of the ship by ber owners.
Oar Colored Firemen.
At a regular meeting of the Cape Fear

was resolved that a vote of thanks be re
turned by the officers and members of the
Company to Messrs. Williams & Murchison
and the Wilmington Compress Company
for the generous appropriation extended to
them; and it was the sentiment of the meet
ing that hereafter, a9 in the past, no efforts
will be spared by the Company to give our
merchants and citizens generally all the
protection possible against the ravages of
fire. Complimentary allusions were also
made to the gallant Chief of the Depart
ment. Col. Roger Moore,
The meeting was presided over by Yal
entine Howe, Foreman, with Emanuel
Jones, First Assistant, and Godfrey Willis,
Seeretary.
The "Unknown."
Mr. John A. Stevens will appear at the
Opera House next Wednesday in "Un
known," a successful play of his own con
caption and construction. Both the piece
Mr. Stevens and the company supporting
him have been highly commended wher
ever thev have appeared, as for instance
the following from the Philadelphia Prett
"Mr. John A. Stevens as the 'Unknown,
in his play of 'Unknown,' has done a very
successful business here during the past
week. He is a good actor, and has been
well received, having been the recipient of
the honor of a call before the curtain at
every performance. The play is an excel
lent one, and could easily have run a loage
time."
