verdict of not guilty yesterday. The
Sheriff of Greeocastle, Iod., testified before
the Senate Exodus Committee yesterday
that one of the objects sought by the pro
moters of the scheme was to decrease the
representation ia North Carolina and in
crease that of Indiana. Labor dis
putes, in the English Cotton Mills are still

The "Evangeline" troape also gives
the audience a delightful cruise m
"H. M. Ship Pinafore."
Tho colored Senator, Bruce, ia to
lecture in Baltimore on the "National
Progress of the Colored Race."
The colored Republicans iu Mary
laud have revolted against the regu
lar party organization. They do not
like the way their white allies manage
matters. They are evidently getting
tired of being used.
The Richmond Dispatch thinks
Coukling superior to Seymour iu
poiut of intellect, and is certain that
he is "in decisiou of character and
ability to rule men." We doubt its
first position. They are brothers-in-law
and live in the same town, Utica,
N. Y.
Bildad, in the Richmond State, re
affirms his declaration that in a few
days Grant's declinature or with
drawal will be forthcoming. We are
sorry. Some how we would rather
beat Grant than oven corrupt John
Sherman or any or the aspirants. It
could be done so easily, too.
The Philadelphia Press, Republi
can organ, says that "the declaration
of General Mahone, the newly-elected
'Readj aster' Senator from Virginia,
that he would support for President
either Blaine or Sherman in prefer
ence to a Bourbon Democrat, is a very
important political fact."
Just bo. But does Mahone bo talk ?
Speaker Randall and Garfield spoke
against the movement about the pow
ers of committees and the distribution
of appropriation bills. We quote a
paragraph from Speaker Randall's re
marks: "The Committee on Commerce, as I said
once before when I was upon the floor, are
a law unto themselves. The authorization
of the appropriations in the River and Har
bor bill ia the only law which looks to the
completion of the work provided for in the
appropriation: whereas the Committee on
Appropriations simply on estimates fur
nished and from the laws on the statute
book make the appropriations with the ex
ception allowed under the third clause of
twenty-first proposed rule. That is the only
exception, and, therefore, it is a mistake to
suppose that the Committee on Appropria
tions can do what it has been charged with
doing; it can only .make law except in the
direction of retrenchment"
The Curtin-Yocnm contested case,
to which we referred yesterday, is
thus reported in the Washington
letter to the Baltimore Sun:
''The contestant (Curtin) alleges, inde
pendently of the non-registered, vote, that
be hat-proved 240 illegal votes to have been
cast for the sitting member, and admits
that 61 have been received by himself,
which would elect him (Curtin) by 99 ma
jority, -provided the remaining votes cast
tor him were all cast by duly qualified
voters, which he does not claim to have
tbowB by legal evidence. The sitting mem
ber admits that 29 illegal votes have been
proved to have been . received by himself,
not considering ihe non -registered votes,
The
VOL. XXV. NO. 112.
but claims that he has shown by competent
evidence mat ssa illegal votes were cast for
his opponent, which would make his own
maioritv S79. provided the vntea remaining
after deducting 29 were all cast by duly
qualified voters, which he does not claim to
uave.snown oy any evidence.
Good. The Republicans in advance
prophesied evil things of the tobacco
tax reduction. Conkling, says the
Washington correspondent of the
Richmond State, "loftily proclaimed,
after the passage of the bill, that the
Democracy had struck thirteen mil
lions from the public revenue at the
dictation of the Southern Democracy,
a statement about as accurate as that
in one of his great speeches in which
he declared that the South pays no
revenue under the tariff, inasmuch as
most of the revenue from this source
is collected at New York."
But,lo! they are sadly disappointed.
Their croaking was untimely. Their
prophecy has the lockjaw. The
revenue from tobacoo for the fiscal
year ending June 30, 1879, was
$40,135,002.35; for the year 1878,
$40,091,000; showing an increase of
$44,000 under the sixteen cent rate.
Score several for the Democrats.
Mr. Edison will attempt to have
700 lights at MenloPark. He is much
annoyed by adverse criticisms of sci
entific men, some of whom have not
been to the Park to see what he is
doing. They condemn him without
investigation. He is reported in the
Washington Post special as saying:
"When I am tbrongh with my light,
when it is runuiug all right ia New York, I
am going to .attend to these men. I will
build a monument-base fifty feel wide. On
this I will put the names of all of these so
called scientific men, togethecwith what
they have said of my light The column
shall be capped with an aaa? head and this
insciiption: 'But remember, my masters
that l am but an ass. mougu u oe not. writ
ten down, yet, forget not, an ass.' At eight
I will have the thing lighted up with elec
tric jets."
Gen. Ben Butler made an argument
before the House Committee on Elec
tions, iu which he showed that one
hundred thousand voters were dis
franchised in Massachusetts by the
educational qualifications. That State
gets credit, however, for these one
hundred thousand discredited voters
who never vote. The Baltimore Sun's
Washington letter says:
"Attention baa more than once been
called to the argument that a strict en
forcement of the fourteenth amendment,
such as those States determinedly insist upon
where the South is concerned, would
abridge the representation in the lower
House of Congress of at least two of the
New England States."

Gone at Last.
The majority of our city readers will
probably remember J. C. Simpson, the poor
old man who has been going about our
streets for a year or two past, asking alms.
and often applying for responsible positions
which it was known that his age and in
firmities rendered him incapable of . filling.
The old man died at the residencaof a gen
tleman in Brooklyn ou Thursday night. He
was about seventy-seven years of age, and
baa a wjfe living about ten miles up the
river, near the line between New Hanover
and Pender. One of Mr. Simpson's pen
chants was to get on the police force, and
he made frequent applications for a posi
tion, being influenced thereto by mis
chievous parties. . '
Ttae LeeiBre Wednesday Kventnc
It is not at all likely that the public will
forget the lecture to be delivered at the Op
era House, on Wednesday evening next, by
Col. D. K. McRae, on the interesting sub
ject of Poetry, being the second of the se
ries for the benefit of the Wilmington Li
brary Association, but it may not be amiss
to allude to the fact occasionally, or, in the
language, of the politicians, to "keep it be
fore the people." The lecture will be on
"Poetry" sure enough this time, and we ex
pect to see a large audience in attendance
to hear what is to be said about it. We
can be assured of one thing: that it will be
a great intellectual treat.

We are glad to learn that Mr.
J. D.'Nutt's injuries from the explosion of
a bottle of creasote, alluded to in our last,
have proved to be very slight.
There are four children in one
family in this city with the whooping

The new horses for the "Little

The Criminal Court for this
county, it should be borno in mind, meets
one week from to-morrow.' Many may be
deceived by the fact that all the other ses

row only to be disappointed.
We learn from the Raleigh
Observer that Gen. Johnstone Jones is to be
in Raleigh this week, and that steps are to
be taken, it is understood, to revive a pro
per interest in the N. C. State Guard at all
points. Something in the way of a revival
is badly needed by our white military down
this way
Indignation meeting No. 2, we

Mr. Nathan Mayer, whose de

certs has won for him an enviable reputa

Operetta Friday night, and could not do
himself justice.' The reason was apparent
to everyone, however, and his plucky effort
was loudly applauded.
Alias) Louise Ponuror
The next attraction to the lovers of the
drama will be the appearance at the Opera
House, on Monday evening, of Miss Louise
Pomeroy, a talented Shakespearean actress,
as Rosalind, in "As YouLike It," acknow
ledged by all to be one of the most beauti
ful conceptions. Miss Pomeroy is pro
nounced by competent critics an actress of
much more than ordinary cleverness and
vivacity, and met with cordial receptions
during a former visit to this section. She
has been playing at various towns in the
Western part of the State for some.weeks,
and, judging from the comments of the
press, she was everywhere greeted by ap
preciative audiences.
On Tuesday evening Miss Pomeroy will
appear as Pauline, in the familiar drama of
"The Lady of Lyons," which has always
been a popular favorite with play-goers.
New Coin to be leaned.
There seems to be a prospect of the in
troduction of several sew coins into general
circulation. A favorable report has been
made on,, bill creating three new coins.
Specimens of these coins have been struck

25 gramme silver dollar, and the goloid
metric dollar. The "etella" is a four dollar
coin, of six grammes of gold, three-tenths
of a gramme silver, and seven-tenths
gramme copper. It ia larger than the five
dollar gold piece, and very bright looking.

MRS. WIN8LOW8 SOOTHING SYRUP. Rev.
Sylvanns Cobb thus writes in the "Boston Christian
Freeman" : We would by no means recommend
any kind of medicine which we did not know to be
good particularly for infants. But of Mrs. Wins
low's Soothing byrupwe can speak from knowl
edge; in our own family it has proved a blessing
indeed, by giving an infant troubled with colic
pains, quiet sleep, and its parents unbroken rest at
sight. Meat parents can appreciate these blessings.
Here is an article which works to perfection, and
which is harmless; for the sleep which it affords
the Infant is perfectly natural, and the little cherub
awakes as "bright as a button." And during the
Erocess of teething its value is incalculable. We
ave frequently heard mothers say they would net
be without it from the birth of the child till it had
finished with the teething siege, on any considera
tion whatever. Sold by ail druggists. 35 cents a
