The Republicans -have caucussed over the financial question, and have decided to oppose all legislation which will affect the present financial status of the country. They are quite willing, however, that tbe Democrats may put their foot in as often and deep as they may choose, j The New York Herald insists thai Mr. Bay ard's resolution is excellent strategy for the Democrats, and that it has di vided the Republicans. We quote from the Herald's Washington let ter: "Having kept the country in turmoil for a number of years with all sorts of wild greenback inflation notions, the good Democrats now suddenly turn rapidly con servative, and declare, though there is no constitutional power to make paper a legal tender, as has been done, on tbe whole it is better to leave it alone, for fear the repeal should make Bayard President. This is the long and short of the whole business, and it shows pretty conclusively that the gentlemen who assume to rule the Demo cratic party here have not an idea beyond that of cutting tbe throat of every man who, by attempting to serve the public, threatens to become unduly prominent." The Republican Senate Committee is as tollows: Morrill, Cockling, Hamlin, McMillan, Booth, Kirkwood, Logan, and Carpenter. The State's letter says of this com mittee: "Mr. Morrill not only favors the Bayard resolution, but would have the greenbacks put in process of rapid withdrawal from circulation. Senators Cookling and Hamlin agree with Morrill, and Edmonds and Hoar endorse Secretary Sherman's recommenda tions, but they are willing for the sake of harmony in their parly and to avoid the monetary disturbance they think would fol low tinkering tbe currency laws, to oppose tampering with greenbacks, provided the silver men will agree to abandon silver and greenback legislation. Tbe report of the committee is intended to commit the party to opposition to the liayard resolution. Warnir's bill, redemption of trade dollars. &c." The Eastern States are said to favor Bayard's resolution, and letters are pouring in to that effect. Seuator Voorhees is in "dead ear nest. He is (or taking hold of finan cial questions in a thorough way, and hence he threw a good sized fire brand into the Senate on Monday. It reaiiy looks that after all the finan cial question will be the absorbing one of the session. An ounce of pru dence is worth a cart load of florid rhetorio just at this time. Last week the Republicans blundered two or three times. This is the Democratic week. Voorhees intends by his reso lution to make a direct issue with Bayard. The promise of a split among the Democrats is encouraging. A high old time was had at tbe Bethel Hall meeting in Washington, on Monday night, to raise funds for the North Carolina negro emigrants still camping out in their poverty. A dozen or two noisy speeches were made and $60 raised. This is enough to give them a few plates of soup each. The Post says: "A letter from Fred. Douglass was read at the opening of the meeting, in which be advised contributions to be made for these deluded people in the interest of humanity, but strongly condemned the exodus, and pro tested strongly against any measures look ing to tbe encouragement of such a wild, impracticable and hopeless scheme." The New York Demoeratio politi cians are much disturbed over the Bayard and Voorbees resolutions. The judicious correspondent from New York of the Philadelphia Ledger writes: "The managers and manipulators are afraid the question will, in spite of every thing, push itself into the National Nomi nating Convention, in which case some of them foresee trouble. The Republicans in sist that, as a party, their record is made on tbe financial question, and hence, if only as a matter of sound policy, the agitation ought to be left, as far as possible, to their political opponents as a firebrand that is certain to damage them." Tbe last Washington gossip may be thus summarized: ttandall is . I hankering after the nomination in 1880, hence bis support of Tilden. He has four or five supporters in Congress. It is thought that either Seymour or Bayard will be the man. Mr. Hendricks will agree to run on either ticket. The Blaine and Sher man men think they will beat Grant. Mr. Edward J. Hale, in his last let ter from New York to Hale's Weekly, Raleigh, says: "I regret to state that Gen. Charles F Kingsbury, of the United States Army, is very ill at tbe residence of his adopted daughter iu Brooklyn, lie was from Ox ford, N. C, married in Fayetteville, N. C, and had an extensive acquaintance in the state ana me coaflBf .js " i il jT V. The New York Baptist pastors have been discussing "plagiarism."

The usual resolutions of thanks were voted. No Conference was evermore handsome ly entertained, and the town of Wilson and its large hearted citizens will long be fond ly cherished in the memory of all who en joyed their hospitalities. All the work being done, the Bishop made -his farewell address, which was char acterized by great earnestness, beauty and power, electrifying the whole audience and inspiring tbe preachers with the purpose to do nobler deeds than ever before.
