But if they .will do that, and if Seymour is then nominated, all will be well for tbe Democrats, and the oduutry will be safe. Four steamers for Europe sailed for New York on last Saturday. Here -are some of the shipments: Wheal, 350,000 bushels; corn, 153, 000 bushels; barley, 10,500 bushels; cheese, 24,000 -boxes; cotton, 1,710 bales. Tbe Richmond State thinks tbe nomination of Grant would unite the Republican party in -Virginia as that of no other man could. It says the colored people in that State fairly worship him. It is so in North Caro lina, and yet they who do the voting are not to have the man of their choice. Grant is to be slain to pro pitiate John Sherman. Whoopee ! The bids for what is known as the Star Routes that is for carrying a daily mail to every county seat, be gan last Saturday. Strange to say there were more from North Caro lina than from Ohio. Rah ! There were 60,000 total. In January 1,060 postmasters were commissioned, a larger number than ever before Reverend Cowley has shown how little will feed twenty-four children. It was proved that two quarts o'. - I I II u r I I - II II - I ii ii ii 1 1 VOL. XXV.--NO. 114. peas and beans mixed and made into soup --very thin and poor-kept them alive. The Doctors testified that some of the children were very weak and debilitated, p and that the heads of the sufferers were covered with tincture of iodine so that their hair was matted together, &c. The Reverend Wolf is now peering be tween iron bars. Little Stephen A. Douglas, whose only claim to distinction is that his father was a very able man and mar ried a North. Carolina lady, made a speech in Illinois last week in which he spread himself after this sort. Said this "degenerate son f an illustrious sire": "At least 40,000 fraudulent votes were counted against us In North Carolina. Be fore the election, Vance, the Democratic candidate for Governor, admitted that if Judge Settle, his opponent, received 93,000 votes in the State, which were the figures claimed for him by his Republican sup porters, he (Vance) waa defeated. The Republican vote was 110,900, and the Dem ocrats made theirs 123,369. I would be willing to swear that in my own county 600 more votes were returned than there were voters in the county. I knew the people of the county thoroughly, had canvassed it several times myself, and knew exactly what the lawful vote ought to be. They turned out the grave-yards, and had them all back again before tbe polls closed." So much for bob-nobbing with Tourgee and other Baron Munchau sen. Little Stephen is the very man for a bloody-shirt campaign. He and Tourgee ought to travel together. What glorious blood and thunder stories they could concoct. The Blaine men will make the tall est sort of fight in Pennsylvania. Cameron is boss, but somehow the Buck Tail fellows have a hankering after Jim Blaine, who is wonderfully magnetic. The State's Washington letter of the 2d says: "Before Cameron left here Thursday for Feuusylvania it was given out that he had changed his tactics, and would try to have tbe delegation sent unpledged for any man, with tbe uuderstanding that they were to Vle as a unit at Chicago, tbe will of a uiarity of them to decide hereafter to whom tneir vote aliould be given. "The Grant ineu here are alternately elated ami depressed by tbe uews from Peuueylvauia. A geul.eoiau here who profetssea to have beeu admitted to the in side woikiogs of the Grant machine Bays they luteud to present a bold Iront and go dowu witli colors flying, if they must They 'hiuk tbat ir they can keep Grant iu the held and have, good chances of success at Chicago, the Blaine and Hherman men will fall into line with enthusiasm, so as to be in favor with the Grant administration if it tbould come into power. They claim that Grant is the second choice or two thirua of Suermaa'a supporters, and of a Urge portion of BWiue's." There is no danger of a personal encounter between Col. Haskell and Gen. Gary. The latter contents him self with saying, "You are another He is willing to compare characters with Hampton, and to go into a thorough investigation. He is now resolved "to reveal all he knows about the campaign of 1876, regard less of whom it may involve, and that the disclosures which he says he can make will inaugurate dissension and confusion in the ensuing National and State can v ass. w Spirits Turpentine.

Yfinton Republican: We learn that the report of the Board of Trustees of the Salem Female Academy to the Synod of the Moravian Church last week was highly satisfactory as to the management of the finances of that institution during the last year.

Last Thursday a little boy, the grandson of Mrs. Dovey Spears, was riding on a wagon, holding an axe in his hands. He was seated on the rear part of the wagon when the axe handle struck one of tbe wheels, causing the axe to rebound and strike the little fellow in tbe throat. Ti c blade of the axe cut entirely across the t nt of the boy's throat, sever ing the wind pipe and making a terrible gash. A messenger was dispatched to town for Dr. Jno. L.

Others say it is too small for this, and that the insect is entirely new to this section. Denis Kearney says the Re publican party is run by "iron-hoofed scoundrels, shod in hell." Too bad, too bad. Worse in fact, than we had supposed. By the general estimate the population of Statesville is placed at from 2,500 to 3,000. Mr. James Milligan, who is next to the oldest person in the county,says that this has been the warmest winter he has ever known, except that of 1826. Goldsboro Messenger: The rice crop in this section will largely increase the present year. It was formerly thought that rice could not be raised on high land, or without flooding, but late experiments have demonstrated that Eastern North Carolina savannah land, and also the swamp land, are well suited for rice culture. About 40,000 busheKTiave been sold in this mar ket, bringing $1 per bushel. A rice mill would next be in order.

Wilmington, Jan. 3lst, 1880. Gentlemen: The kind and flattering compliment which you b&ve extended to us in your note of to-day, in regard to the repetition of the Operetta of "Red Riding hood," is gratifying to us in the highest de gree. We are sure that our first object was for the benefit and relief of the church, and our next to please our friends; if we have suc ceeded in both, as you have so kindly inti mated, then at your request we will consent to a repetition of the Operetta, at a time which may be agreed upon by those desir ing it. With sincere thanks for your flattering notice of our poor endeavors, . We are, very respectfully, Misses Burr & James. To Messrs. D. G. Worth, and -others. Col. mcRae'a Lecture To"nIalt We once more call attention to the fact, as a matter of form, that Col. D. K. McRae is to treat our citizens to another of his charming intellectual efforts at the Opera House this evening, for the benefit of the Wilmington Library Association. We say "as a matter of form," for the reason that people are not apt to forget anything that so nearly affects their mental gratification and pleasure, and to which they are looking with such delightful anticipation. Those who listened to his introductory will be able to form some adequate conception of what is in store for them when tbe theme itself is presented. We bespeak for tbe author and! his subiect Poetry a large and apprecia tive audience. Happened on tbe Blab Seaa. We stated yesterday that a seaman be longing on the German Barque Eintrackt had been arrested for, the alleged larceny, of clothing belonging to the mate of. the vessel, and also for desertion, and his examination before Justice Gardner bad been fixed for yesterday morning. In the meantime, however, it transpired tbat the reputed larceny took place qn the high seas, and that consequently the caje did not come within the jurisdiction of the Magistrate, who thereupon dismissed it. Tbe defen dant is still held in confinement as a de Berter, however, to await the pleasure of his Captain and the German Imperial Con sul at this port. . "j A DancroBtFlaeforllC Several hogs running at large on the Btreets, contrary to the ordinance made and provided, strayed into a private lot on Seventh street, yesterday, when a fierce dog on the premises seized one of the fat "porkers," inflicted a fatal wound upon him and then sucked bis blood; while it was all that tbe owners of the canine could do to keep him from killing more of the hogs.

The attendance was much larger than on the former occasion, and the satis faction general and frequently attested by applause. .The piece was much better suited to the capabilities of the Company than "As You Like It," and the representation on the whole far more than satisfactory. Miss Pomeroy gave a spirited and pleasing rendi tion of Pauline, and well sustained previous opinions formed of her ability.: Mr. Leake's splendid voice, under thorough cootrolrwas particularly effective, and the delivery of hia lines charmed the listener. He is an actor of long experience and unquestioned ktalent. The Company go hence to Charleston. KIVBR AND ma KIN E. Brig Ellen Greaves, hence, arrived at Glasgow yesterday.

Worth and Wave left Fayetteville Monday morning there had been no rain and no improve ment in the river, wbieh was very low. Snow waa falling at Fayetteville when the steamers left, however, and it bid fair to be a heavy one. The storm of Monday night and yes terday was very severe at the mouth of the river. Pilots who arrived from below re port that the British' schooner A. F. Ran dolph, nineteen days from Jamaica, and bound to this port to load lumber for the West Indies, went ashore during the night on what is known as "Tbe Fingers," South southwest from Bald Head light, and it was feared tbat she would go to pieces. The A. F. Randolph registers 155 tons. The pilot boat Rosa Scarborough, of Smithville, went ashore on Bald Head beach, and yesterday was reported high and dry. It was thought that if the weather moderated soon she would likely be gotten off all right, otherwise it was feared she would go to pieces. . The British barquentioe Resolute, from Liverpool December 27th, and bound for this port, was discovered yesterday morning close into the breakers off Bald Head.Bar, with both anchors down and the seas break ing over her. It was thought that, as she held so long, and tbe ebb tide would soon set in, which would help her in holding up to her anchors, that she might ride through tbe gale in safety. In the meantime it was so rough that none of tbe boats could get out to the im perilled vessels. Tbe bar was represented to be one sheet of breakers, and it was no ticed that the Resolute was rolling to such an extent that her gunwales, and some times even ber yard arms, would dip into the sea.

Sylvanus 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 byrup we 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 night. Most parents can appreciate these blessings. Here is an article which worksite perfection, and which la harmless; for the sleep which it affords the infant is perfectly natural, and the little cherub awakes a "bright as a button." And during the grocessof 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.
