Lockwood has published a full statement of the disaster which befel the steamer Champion; the ladies failed to save themselves from fright and were lost; the scenes were most heartrending; the names of some of the saved are given. An other Charleston steamer, the Falcon, col lided with a three-masted schooner and sunk; the passengers and crew were all saved; the collision occurred off Barren Island at night; the schooner was slightly damaged. Three rescued men from the schooner Petrel, of New Bedford, wrecked by a hurricane, have leached New York; fifteen men were lost and only six saved- Steamer Arizona, from New York for Liverpool, was stove in by an icc bJirfli into St. John's; passengers and cargo all safe. Turkish newspa pers are very violent against England. The political situation is exciting the St. Petersburg people. Exciting debate in Prussian Diet; Prince Bismarck was se verely attacked. Marshal Canrobert, Bonapariist, elected French Senator. Ooiio i mill owners of Oldham, England, lesolved to discontinue short-time move ment. Little doubt is now expressed of the Ameer's treachery; he will be sent as a State prisoner to India. A strong force of Montenegrins has mercilessly slain more than three hundred Albauian Mussul mans. I Destructive fires are reported from various points. An immense il licit distillery was seized in New York Sun day; most complete of the kind ever found in the city. Hon. Richard Schell died in New York yesterday morning. A fatal railway accident and partial destruction of a town by a cyclone are re ported from Missouri. Reports are given of (be condition of the cotton crop in Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkansas, Geor gia and Florida. New York State ticket-still in doubt. California re ports the capture and killing of a band of outlaws.. Dr. Lovick Pierce, the fa ther of Methodism in Georgia, is dead, aged 95 years. - The ten millions of bonds called for by the Assistant Treasurer hi New York have been taken. The stevedores of Boston are on a strike for higher wages. The Oldham cotton spinners censure the action of the Liver pool cotton ring, and suggest the necessity of obtaining cotton direct from America to prostrate its manoeuvres. At the Lord Mayor's procession in London, yes terday, the ex 'Mayor was vigorously hissed. Three hundred Chilians were killed and wounded at the bombardment of Pa- aaquv A revolution is rumored in Lima, Peru Mrs. James Adams, of Lancaster county, 8. C., cut the throats of her five children, and then set fire to her clothes and was burned to death; supposed to have been insane. A jury awarded $1,875 damages to Mrs. Amelia Meyer in a suit for libel against the New York World, The British Ambassador at Constan tinople protests against certain appoint ments made by the Porte. Wm. D. Brocker, of the Little Rock Democrat, is dead. New York markets: Money easy at 77 1-16, closing at 56 per cent. ; cotton steady at llfghllf cents; Southern flour quiet and unchanged; wheat quiet at $1 25 1 37; corn about Jc better and fair ly active; spirits turpentine 40c; rosin dull at $1 751 80. The duty on the Epsom Gold Cup, won by Lorillard's "Parole" in Eng lancLaraounted to $2,500, which has been paid. Hon. Robert Toombs was not dis appointed at the New York election, but rather elated. It shows that if united that State is safe for the De mocracy in 1880. Senafjaj JJ&yard landed at New York on Friday. There was no flourish of trumpets over his safe re turn from his foreign travels. The Demooraoy of the country will gladly welcome the honest and capable Sena tor from Delaware. It has been overlooked that Waldo Hutching has been elected to Congress from the Twelfth district in New York. This is a gain. It is Clark son N. Potter's old district that was lost in the last election. The person elected died on the night of his triumph. We are told that this week both the Kelly i tea and the Tildenites will issue appeals to the Democracy of the United- States. Kelly will go for Tilden, and lay at his door the "calamity" of having Cornell elected. Tilden will show that Kelly is respon- sible. Hie countrv appears to regard botk guilty the one in forcing for bolting and electing Cornell and other Republicans. The Republi cans waft also issue a manifesto as suring the public that the election of Mr. Cornell means a united North as against a solid South, and that, by consequence, it foreshadows the eleo- V , , 7 uein. .ine OWflOOK, tuereiure, prom- ses no lack of asritatiou. 1ME IVlOKlNlli (jTAK VOL. XXV. NO. 43. The venerable Dr. Lovick Pierce is dead, in his 95th year. He was a native of North Carolina, and was one of the greatest preachers ever born on this continent. Rev. Dr. Deems, himself a preacher of great gifts and ability, once told us that he never heard a greater preacher than "this old man eloquent" when he was in bis prime. He was a wise and good man, and was indeed a Prince in Israel. His son, Bishop Pieroe, of Georgia, now an old man, is equally eminent for his splendid pulpit power. Here is the result in Virginia as given by the Richmond Dispatch of Monday: HOUSE. Conservative Debt-Payers elected 42 White Republican Debt-Payers elected.

Colored Republicans Readjusters 40 This is only partly official. The Charlotte Observer has been interviewing Col. Walter L. Steele, member of Congress from that Dis trict. Ho thinks Mr. Tilden has been retired by the result in New York. We quote: "Popular favor changes so suddenly and so completely that the man who might be most available to-day might be least so a year hence. He went on to say that Mr. Bayard was a man of decided char acter, and one against whom nothing can be urged by the other party; his record is irreproachable. Chief Justice Church, of New York, it was suggested, is also a pure man, and a strong man in bis State, and without hazarding an opinion as to who the nominee next year would be, or ought to be. the drift of Col. Steele's conversation pointed to one or the other of the gentle men mentioned." BAFIIVI' STA TE COilVKNTION. Meeting of the Foriy-.ltmti Annual Daily Torchlight's Report Condensed. 'I IHrd . Day.

During the past year over $27,161 21 had been con tribnted to mission work, and this sum was a large underestimate, and proved it to be really over $50,000. Several speeches were made. Dr. Huf ham said before he left here he wanted $300 or $500 for the church at Hamilton, for the need was press ing. This was the first time he bad ever come before the Baptists of the State begging for any enterprise with which he was intimately connected.

For the South Atlantic States, northeast to southeast winds, slight changes in tem perature and barometer, and partly cloudy weather and local rains, are the indications fortc-day. Incendiary Fire Yesterday Nor The alarm of fire yesterday morning, about 1 o'clock, was caused by the burning of three one-story frame dwelling houses on the noith side el Wooster, between Ninth and Tenth streets. The fire originated in the house owned and occupied by one Aaron S. Davis, colored, or between that and the one adjoining, and when disco vered had attained such headway that Davis and his family with difficulty escaped from the burning building, losing clothing. furniture and everything. The fire com municated to two of the adjoining houses, which were both destroyed. One of these had been tenanted until a few days before the fire, but was then empty, and the other I was occupied by a colored family. These buildings were both the property of Mr. John T. Wilkins . The fourth house in the row, occupied by a. colored plasterer by 1 e - t t l 1 a. at-! the name of Green, also caught, but by this time a stream of water had been gotten upon the fire and the last named bouse was saved with but little damage. The bouse on tbe corner of H inth street was somewhat scorched, but tbe damage was immaterial. The nearest available water was tbe cis tern at the corner of Sixth and Castle streets, and as no one engine had enough hose to reach, the Cape Fear was supplied with hose by the Little Giant, and Was the only engine that was brought into requisi tion in consequence of the scarcity of water. Davis' bouse was insured for $300 in the Pamlico Insurance Company, and Wil kins' two houses for $100 and $150, respec tively, in the Pamlico and Columbus, re presented in this city by Messrs. John W Gordon & Bro.

It seems that a colored boy in tbe store saw Oeorge -when be took tbe meat, and as he hurried from the establishment the cry was made to stop that man, when Officer E. S. Griffith gave chase and soon overtook the adventu rous citizen of Masonboro and brought him to a standstill. He first stated that he had thrown tbe meat -over- -fence, but subse quently denied having had U Upon open ing his coat, however, tbe impression of the bam was to be plainly seen upon his un dergarment He was lodged in the guard house until yesterday morning, when he was brought before tbe City Court, but the case was turned over by the Mayor to Justice Mi 11 is for investigation. Tbe defendant was subsequently ar raigoed before Justice Millis and the case was continued over until this morning, at 11 o'clock, in order to give time fox the ne cessary witnesses. FISht on Shipboard . There was quite a spirited fight yester day morning between the mate and some of the seamen of the Schr. C. H. Macomber, loading with lumber at Messrs. Northrop & Cumming's mill. It seems that the par ties got into a dispute, during which one, of the men drew his knife on the mate, Mr Emory, when the latter seized a stick of wood and struck the man over the head with it, knocking htm down, upon Which he jumped upon the prostrate form and commenced pounding away with an earnest. ness which threatened serious results. At this opportune juncture, however, assis tance arrived and the parties were separated. The mate was subsequently arrested and taken before Justice Hall, Who made an appropriate disposition of the case. A Former Wilmlngtonlan Shot. Mr. Wm. Toft, of this city, an attache of the Wilmington & Weldon Railroad shops, received a telegram from Wilmington, Del ., yesterday morning, to tbe effect that his son , Mr. Millard Toft, had been attacked in that place on Saturday night last and shot in the head, but stating that be was doing 1 well at the time the teleeram was sent. The J telegram, which was forwarded by Mr. James Vincent, a brother-in-law of the in- jured man, gives do further particulars, Mr. Millard Toft was formerly a well known resident of this cKy, where he Mas many friends who wirt regret to hear of his mishap. He was at one time City Agent for the Star. mm A colored individual, whose name we did hot ascertain, made a narrow escape fr0m "drowning yesterday morning.
