The court house at Dallas county, Texas, has been destroyed by fire with many valuable papers. Two men a woman and six children, all colored perished in the flames of a burning house- near Columbia, S. C, Tuesday night. Specie in the Bank of France increased over five million franca the past week. Pensacola, Fla., is elated over the exten sion of the Louisville & Nashville Railway system to that place. The Irish mem bers of the British Parliament will move an amendment to the address of the Queen de livered yesterday, condemning the Govern ment for failure to take efficient measures to relieve the distress in Ireland; a bill sus pending writs of ejectment for non-payment of rents ia to be introduced. According to the latest returns the militia force of the United States consists of 8869 commissioned officers and 117,037 men, organized, and the unorganized force is put down at 6,516,750. Gen. Beaure gard is to tell what he knows about the lot tery business before the House Committee to-day. Efforts are to be made to turn the tide of colored emigrants from Kansas to some other State; the relief associations there frad it impossible to maintain the hun dreds who have lately arrived. Inti mations that the German army is to be still further strengthened create no little sensa tion. The celebration of St. Patrick's Day in New York will be omitted this year and the funds usually devoted to that ob ject sent to Ireland. -Silver has been discovered in Indian Territory.

A vessel is to sail from Baltimore for Ireland, laden with grain. The extract yesterday credited to Greensboro Mail ought to have been Golctsboro Mail. We so wrote it. The Cleveland (Ohio) Leader thinks Tilden will capture the dele gation from that State. Is that so? The old troublesome "Warner Silver bill" is to be dug up and thrown into Congiessto make further racket and get up a financial breeze. The mar plots still live. The Southern Republican Associa tion in Washington is after John Sherman for his course in regard to tlie Presidency. Hit him again, he has very few friends this way. . Miss Mary Anderson has given a line copy of Shakespeare to Milnes Lovick, of her Company. There now. Is the handsome Mary softening at last ? They all do it, sooner or later.

It is a free fight, out your man. Trot The papers tried to marry off Uncle Samuel Tilden again. The old gent says it ain't so. He would rather be President than be married. Some will think him of sound mind and rare discretion. Of 4,020 Ohio Republicans whose opinions were sought by the Cincin nati Gazette, 1,981 are for Sherman, 968 for Blaine, 620 for Grant, 134 for Garfield. 85 for Hayes, 70 for W ashburne besides scattering.

Howard (wonder if he is any kin to Oh ! Oh !) as appraiser of mer chandise at New Tork. His only claim is that he wrote a so-called life of said R. B. H. when he was a candidate for the Presidency. Hayes is determined that all of the fellows who helped shall get office. He, however, has not remembered those two illustrious female "visiting states-t men" (never mind the bull), the immortal Jenks and Eliza Pinkston. Howard is an "Ohio man," and the New York Republican delegation are disgusted and mad. An Irishman doing business in Bal timore is now in "the old country," and writes as follows (which we copy rom the Sun) about the suffering of his countrymen; "There is great Buffering for the want of food and fuel among the poorer class in this country, and well-to-do folks, both in Eng- and and Ireland, are coming nobly to the rescue, Dut bo amount or pnonc cnariiy will be able to cope with the wide-spread distress now prevailing here. Nothing short of public works will save the people. Still the government stands aloof and does nothing. You will be no longer surprised at the disaffection which exists in this country. The distress is attributable to the failure or the crops for tbe past three years, and the last was the greatest of all; owing to tbe constant wet weather nothing came to perfection. I think if Mr. Parnell would talk less about tbe land question in America, and plead more for his starving fellow-countrymen at home, it would be a great deal better, at least for the present." Milton Nobles's new play was well received in Richmond. The State's 'Special Paragraphist," who knows what he is writing about when he un dertakes theatrioal criticism, and who rarely lets his rhetoric take possession of his judgment, says: "Milton Nobles delighted the people last night with his 'Man of tbe People.' Al though it is not so 'taking' a play . as tbe 'Phcsnix,' yet it has some very fine and strong dramatic points and incidents, and i hey are all well worked out. Monies is a real man of tbe people, having passed through all the grades in New York from newsboy to editor, and he deserves the highest credit for having made himself al most a finished dramatist. He will always find a warm welcome awaiting him among the people of Richmond whenever be may visit this city." The Superintendent of the Census writes to Col. W. L. Steele, concern ing the size of districts for enumera tors, as follows: "In general, every town, township, mili tia diatrict.or other permanent cml division of tbe county should be constituted au enu meration district,!! the estimated population thereof exceeds seven or eight hundred in habitants. Tbe only reason which this office could recognize as sufficient for making such a civil division a part pi a larger enu meration district would be the impossibility of securing a competent and trustworthy enumerator within its own limits. "The-enumeration districts must be made small enough to secure the comple tion of tbe canvass within the limit set by tbe census law, viz. : during the month of June." Mr. Edward J. Hale writes to Hates Weekly "concerning a new publication of E. J. Hale & Son, as follows: "The rapid receipt of advance orders for 'The Master of Red Leaf induces me to hope that it will be our most successful book, (always excepting 'Stephens's His tory of- the United Stales.) Among these orders is one received tnts week irom a dis tant city for five hundred copies. This justified the printing of a second edition, even oeiore tne nrst was xuiiy on tne press. The author is Mrs. E. A. Meriwether, of Memphis, Tenn., the wife of a distinguished lawyer or that city." . . Now and then the great civil ser vice Fraud meets a fellow who is independent and "saucy. The Rich mond Dispatch's Washington cor respondent gives the following: "Mr. Hollo way. the postmaster at Indi anapolis. called on the President, I hear. and remarked that he and all the Federal officers in Indiana are for Grant, and that they do not intend to pay any attention to Executive order no. l. Mr. Hayes laugnea and said nothing. VY e neither believe nor will we admit that all of the wisdom, ability, merit and claims belong to one sec tion of North Carolina. If two thirds of a large State is uot entitled to a Governor after forty years wait ing, then how many years are neces sary in order to give said two-thirds a right to office under the Constitu tion ? Gen. Sherman thinks ' Gen. Boyn ton ought to seek redress through the courts. According to Tecumseh a citizen has no right to seek redress of an officer through a court martial. If Boynton were to get fighting mad some day and give-the old town-burner a good flogging, Jt would surprise the country and gratify many. Hayes has made a good President, according to the Springfield Republi can. Even supposing that true, which it is not, we fail to see in it any good Teason why tw should . be elected again.' ' WILMINGTON, SSpirts Turpentine Another incendiary attempt was made at Charlotte. The village of Wake Forest College is improving. The two negro boy incendiaries of Charlotte were jailed for trial. The murder of blind negro Crump is still involved in mystery, Wake county has paid its taxes for 1879, amounting to $25,589.88. Chief Justice Smith is again well enough to resume his seat on the bench. Mrs. Moon has just closed a series of revival meetings atLautinburg, which resulted in sixty-four conveisione. Glen Alpine "Springs, in Burke county, have been rented to A. J. Rudges, who years ago kept tbe Raleigh National Hotel. Raleigh Dispatch : Between 40,000 and 50,000 bales of cotton have been shipped from the local stations on tbe Raleigh & Gaston Railroad this season.

This out of a population of 7,000 whites. , Durham Recorder: Durham will soon have an Episcopal church. The Bingham School is more prosperous than ever. There are more students than can be accommodated, and new quarters are being added to meet the increased demand. Prof. James EL Horner, of Oxford, has an English grammar in press. Every one throughout North Carolina knows him as a very successful teacher, and we are sure that his book will be of great assistance to the teachers of the State. Raleigh Observer'. We under stand that the Board of Directors of the Western North Carolina Railroad will meet in Raleigh, February 10th, at which .time the proposition of Mr. Best to purchase the road will be submitted to them by the Go vernor for their consideration. If they shall favorably consider the terms offered, the Governor and Council will have to de cide what they will do about it We ap prehend, however, that they will not as sume tbe 'responsibility of nipping Mr. Best in the bud by pigeon holing him. Raleigh Observer: In spite of the inclement weather, Duprez & Benedict's Minstrels, as is usual in Charlotte for min strel shows, were greeted with a first-rate house. At a public sale of bonds made yesterday by Gen. Barringer in front of the Court House door, Mecklenburg county bonds brought 101, having been purchased by L. W. Barringer. New Western North Carolina Railroad bonds were bought by Mr. J. Harvey Wilson for 102, and second mortgage bonds of the Charlotte, Columbia & Augusta Railroad were sold to Col. A. B Springs for 95. Raleigh Visitor: From a pri vate letter received by the Governor this morning from Pitt county, we learn that the boHer belonging to Mr. F. M.

No cases for the Mayor's con sideration yesterday morning. From present appearances the approaching term of the Criminal Couit will have a very heavy docket. Jt The only intelligence yesterday from the schr. A. F. Randolph, ashore on tbe Western Bar, was to the effect that to all appearances there was no cnange in her condition. The captain went down to the vessel yesterday morning, and is expected to return to-day. We learn that Col. D. K. McRae has been retained as counsel for John Grady, the colored fireman who is charged with the killing of John Taylor, colored, in November last, and whose case will come up for trial at the approaching term of the Criminal Court. The Charlotte Observer says : It is said that the company of amateurs who recently presented the operetta, "Little Red Riding Hood," in Wilmington, might be induced to come to Charlotte. There were over a hundred in tbe company, and tbe Wilmington papers report that it was tbe biggest thing of the season in that city. Alleged Cattle Depredator, On Wednesday afternoon a colored man, by tbe name of Gilbeit Fisher, was discov ered in the woods, in Harnett township skinning a cow, which, upon examination, was found to bear the marks used by Mr. Thomas Edens, a farmer in that neighbor hood. The fact was reported to Mr. Edens, who forthwith had a warrant issued by Justice Gardner, of this city, and subse quently arrested Gilbert Fisher and bis son, Gilbert Fisher, Jr., on the charge of lar ceny. Mr. Edens and Mr. Charles Gilbert started to the ciiy with the prisoners, and had reached a point near the intersection of Ninth and Castle streets, when the elder Fisher, who was in charge of Mr. Edens, broke and run. Mr. E. tried to make him halt, and finally fired two or three shots at him, but Fisher kept steadily on his course and made good his escape. His son, how ever, was brought to this city by Mr. Gil bert and lodged in jail. Mr. Edens says he has lost several cattle lately and is confident that the Fishers have made way with them. The case came up before Justice Gardner yesterday afternoon, and at the conclusion of the testimony defendant was ordered to give a justified bond in the sum of $50 for his appearance at tbe approaching term of the Criminal Court, in default of which he was committed to jail. Stealing a Ring. A lady on Third, between Walnut and Red Cross streets, having lost a valuable gold ring, and entertaining a suspicion that it had been stolen by a colored girl by the name of Mary Agnes King, a search war rant was issued by Justice Gardner, yester day afternoon, and placed in tbe hands of Constable T. O. Bunting, who found the ring in question, and another one which had been missing, in the possession of the girl. She was thereupon arrested and lodged in 3 ail, upon failure to eive tbe ne cessary, security, to await her preliminary examination before Justice Gardner to-oay. A Prospective Leetare. We hear there is some prospect that we shall have a lecture before the close of the season, under tbe auspices of the Wilming ton Library Association, from Hon. S. S. Cox, of New York, more popularly known as "Sunset" Cox. A letter was recently received from him, in Which he stated, in effect, that he had some idea of visiting Florida daring the winter, and, should he do so, he would willingly lay over a night en route and fill an aonoiatment for the Committee. . Un mailable matter. The following is the unmailable matter remaining in the city post office at this date: Major Foy, Sav., Flor. & Western R. R ; Messrs. Furchgott, Benedict & Co., Charles ton, S.

Repetition of tne .Operetta. The attendance at- the Opera House last evening was but little smaller than oh the occasion of its first prssentation. The few defects and imper'e tions that were no ticeable on tbe first night, (and they were few indeed,) were overcome last night and the entertainment, was in every respect ex cellent. Mr. Nathan Mayer was in much better voice, and his rendition of a solo was re warded with a hearty encore. , The song "Within a Mile, of Edinboro Town," was an addition that greatly pleased all present, and the lady who sang it so delightfully was loudly applauded. The "Limerick Boy," a very amusing farce, concluded the performance. In this Messrs. Chas. Conoley and Henry Gherken especially distinguished themselves, though nearly all of the characters were well taken and deserve mention did our space permit. To-night we are to have the popular 'Phceoix," with Milton Nobles and an ex cellent company to, we trust, a large au dience. Apportionment of tttoSenoel Fond. At the late meeting of the Board of Coun ty Commissioners, on Monday last, the Board made an apportionment of the school fund, based upon what was thought to be tbe census of 1879. Since then it has transpired that the Clerk of tbe Board unconsciously substituted tbe census of 1878 for that 1879, whereupon the Board of Finance met and made a correct appor tionment at $1.67 per capita (instead of $2.10, as formerly), as follows: Wilmington District No. 1. Whites, 980; amount $1,636.60. Colored, 1,760; amount $2,939.20. District No. 2. Whites, 916; amount $1,529.72. Colored.165; amount $2,112.55. Federal Point District No. 3.

Colored, 287; amount, $479.29. Cape Fear District No. 6. Whites, 50; amount $83.50. Colored, 400; amount $668. Total whites, 2,279; colored, 3,876. Total amount, $10,278.85. Sam peon County Item. From a private letter from a gentleman in Clinton, Sampson county, we learn that a very interesting entertainment was given at that place, on the 20th ult., by twenty- five young ladies of the Clinton Female College, which was largely attended by the good people of the town, and proved to be a very enjoyable affair. The programme consisted of calisthenic exercises and vocal and instrumental music. The letter also mentions the fact that a German professor of music, by the name of Charles Louis, was found in a dying condition, on Sunday evening last, about 10 o'clock, on the streets of Clinton. He was taken to the residence of one Albert Smith, but expired in about an hour after wards. The verdict of the coroner's jury was that he died from exposure and hard drink. Deceased was well known in Du plin and Sampson, and was apparently about 55 years old. He was unmarried. Tbe writer says we may look for plenty of rafts coming to Wilmington by next week, as there has been an abundance of rain in that section. Anotner Pnase of tneItlqnor Par ehasee Gaae. Tbe city dealer. referred to yesterday as being fined $50 and costs for failing to re turn his total amount of purchases, in ac cordance with law, was before the same Magistrate yesterday for neglecting and re fusing to submit bis books for inspection, after being notified in writing by the Regis ter of Deeds so to do, in accordance with law. The jury, who were summoned to try the case, after hearing the evidence, re turned a verdict of guilty, whereupon the Magistrate required the defendant to pay a fine of $25 and the costs. Defendant, through his counsel, Jno. L Holmes, .Esq., has given notice or an in tention to appeal in both cases 10 the Criminal Court. Dlaeliarged (rom Cuatodv. Joseph Hillean, F. E.

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 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 night. Meet parents can appreciate these blessings. Here is an article which works to perfection, and which Is harmless; for the sleep which it affords tbe Infant is perfectly natural, and the little cherub awakes as "bright as a button." And during the grocess 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.
