Morrow has had another fight with the Victoria Indians; one man was killed and four were wounded. The Special Com mittee of the Indian Commission make a report seriously implicating Agent Harland and Inspector J. H. Hammond. Ken neth Albro, an old man from Texas, was robbed in New York of $125,000 while ascending the steps of the Sob-Treasury. James A. Anderson, late Public Ad ministrator at Memphis, is charged with fraud to the amount of $75,000. Sev eral more deaths have occurred from the lailway accident in France. A Radi cal paper at Berlin has been suppressed. Austria will have a representative at the anniversary of the Czar's accession to the throne; this is regarded as favorable to harmony. The Brazilian cotton crop is estimated at 4,250.000 (?) bales. Parnell and Dillon, the Irish agitators, vis ited Richmond, Virginia, yesterday, and were received by a committee of citizens. The Tennessee State Republican Con vention meets on the 5lh of May.

If a Congressman wants to be freelv advertised from Maine to Florida and from Smithfield to San Francisco, jast let him give a certifi cate of cure to a patent medicine fellow. Mr. Alex. Stephens is now in all the papers. Oldman Peter Cooper is an active politician for a man of eighty-five. He has written to Senator Beck urg log him "to push soft money men in Congress up to the point of duty, to I waere relentless war in behalf of greenbacks and against banks." National The Philadelphia Presst Stalwart organ and hot for Blaine, says the "third term was killed bv 20 maior . r i mi . I ity" in Pennsylvania. That is not a cood way to Kill any politician, Blaine was cheated out of Pennsyl vania, but New Hampshire is boom ing for him all the same. Gen. Jo Johnston is for uniting all the political elements in Virginia against the Radicals. Suoh appears to be his judgment as expressed in a recent conversation that is reported in the papers. He would, we suppose, rather 'conciliate Mahone than drive him off into a third party opposition. John Sherman professes to have foreseen Grant's triumph in Fennsyl- vania and to be well satisfied with rx,. , ., . if a the result. The hypocrite! He does oot antagonize Grant; he only oppo Wf 4 VOL. XXV. NO. 117. ses the third term. -Ah ! a distinc tion withotr a difference, we take it. The Washington correspondent of the State says: 'It is admitted on all sides that Blaine is the second choice of Pennsylvania, and the -Blaine men assert, probably with truth. that the State's first choice, untrammelled by Cameronism, would be Blaine. They hoped to win at Harrisburg, and cannot conceal their disappointment at this first serious check. "The Grant men are. of course, highly gratified at the outcome in Pennsylvania, and build boastful estimates upon what will come of it in the near future. "Those Sherman and Blaine men who are responsible for the story that Grant's name would be withdrawn at Harrisburg.still in sist that the announcement will certainly be made even yet. Their faith is strong. New York men say that Pennsylvania will be followed by New York when the conven tion meets two weeks hence, and Grant having one hundred and forty-two votes to start with the balance will be promptly fur nished by Illinois, Nebraska, Oregon, Cali fornia, Nevada, Minnesota, and one or two other States." When Mr. E. B. Borden, of Golds- boro, was before the Exodus Com mittee, he gave a favorable and true account of the treatment of the co lored people and their condition. Mr. Blair cross-examined him. We now give a good point of Senator Vance: 'Senator Vance said to the witness: 'Mr. Blair has tried to make you say that this landlord and tenant lew was passed on the presumption that all tenants were dishonest. I ask yousf you think because they have laws in New Hampshire against stealing, that all of Mr. Blaine's constituents are thieves?' Of course the witness did not think anything of the kind." That is just like Zeb. Sore throat or not, he knows how to rub salt on a sore place. W. H. B., in the Uoldsboro Mes- sengerys&ja of the poem entitled "The J3nril of Moses": "I will state that it was written for the Wilson Advance several Years ago. and re ceived at the time of publication compli mentary notices from several State papers. It was written by an accomplished daugh ter of VYihon, but now a resident of anotner State." We cannot speak of the poem re ferred to, as we did not read it. There is a poem with the same title of great beauty, which was written before the Advance had an existence. We may nQ,lt 11 up and publish it in the Star.

The Deaf and Dumb Asylum has been managed as well, if not better, than any other public institution. The principal of the Deaf and Dumb Asylum reports that the actual expenses of the asy lum for the year 1879 were $32,479.35, and that there is a balance of $7,510.22 to be carried over to the next year, as the result of the savings of the two previous years, and that the institution has Deen operated at the smallest cost of any previous year.

News comes: from South Iredell county that on day before yesterday morning, about four miles northeast from Mt. Mourne, the dead body of a man was found in an old barn. He was seen the evening previous in a state of intoxication, but being a stranger, and claiming to have a wagon just ahead of him, : but little at tention was paid to him. There was nothing on or about him to give a clue as to who he was, or where he came from. The custom of incorporating churches in the country to prevent the sale of ardent spirits within certain distances of them is common In North Carolina, but a novel proposition comet from Davidson township in Iredell county, where the bar-rooms have .got the start. In onfrueighborhood there are three of these establishments, in the vicinity of which it is proposed to build a Baptist church. It is said the "grocery" keepers propose to apply to the County Commis sioners for protection of their licensed NO n. c, Saturday, February 7, isso. rights, and that the church- members may be inhibited from reforming the morals of the community and spoiling their occupa tion.

On the morning of the fire of the 20th of January, which consumed the residence of "Madame Hall," on Ann, between Seventh and Eighth streets, in the. southern part of the city, a worthy old colored man by the name of Wm. Buchanan, who is well and favorably known among oar white citizens, made the remark, before the engines com menced playing on the fire, th tt he would give ten dollars to the first company that succeeded in getting a stream on the flames. Nothing more was thought of the matter by any one until yesterday, when the old man walked into the office of Col. Roger Moore.Chief of the Fire-Department, and handed in ten dollars, explaining all the circumstances. The amount was accepted by the Chief, with thanks, and turned over to Valentine Howe, Foreman of the Cape Fear Steam Fire Engine Company No. 3, (colored), which steamer got the first stream On the fire on that occasion. Old man Buchanan, it should be understood, resided in close proximity to the burning .building, and hence appreciated the protection which the firemen gave him. His action in the matter is worthy of commendation, and his example one that could be followed with propriety by others similarly situated. Liquor Dealers Association. A meeting was held yesterday afternoon, at the Howard Relief Engine Hall, of a number of the liquor dealers of the city, for the furtherance of objects connected with their Association. Mr. H. E. Scott was tchosen President, and Capt. James M.McGowan Secretary. Captain McGowan offered a resolution that the President appoint a committee of five to ascertain the names of all licensed dealers in the city, and to call upon such dealers as are not members of the Associa- tion and induce them to join, for the better protection of their rights and privileges. The resolution was adopted, and the Pre sident appointed as the committee Messrs. R. F. Eden, Henry Schulken, John W. Gerdtz, J. F. Stolter and J. M. Bremer. Tuesday, the 10th instant, at 8 o'clock P.

A Pa bile cistern. It has been suggested that it would be a good idea for the city to construct a public cistern on the grounds adjacent to the new .market house, and thus utilize the immense roof of that building in furnishing pure wa ter for the use of. strangers and residents in that portion of the city, where it Is said the water, as a general thing, is not of a very desirable quality.

It is a pleasure to any conscientious critic to have .a play to disqass.tbat allows a free use of adjectives without fear of vio lating truth or militating against the judg ment of intelligent persons in the audience. Mr, Nobles has presented his exceedingly brilliant and- stirring melo-drama, "The Phoenix," three times before the Wilming ton people, and never with such success as last night. ' It was a great triumph, and a very sympathetic and large house witnessed it. At this hour we cannot undertake a regular analysis or elaborate criticism. It is not necessary fortunately. It will be suffi cient to say that it is decidedly the cleverest sensational play we ever saw" on any stage. It is strikingly written, and abounds in many very uncommon points. From first to last the interest never flags for a moment. The dialogues are all spirited and fresh, and the wit is sparkling and animating. The best spectacular scene we ever saw in our Opera House was the burning of the build ing. We never witnessed anything better in ar,y Northern theatre. The acting was good throughout. Mr. Nobles personated four characters, and he did it with realistip power and versatility that showed him to be a. true artist "who knew bow to hold the mirror. up to nature. Mr. Curtis as Moses Solomons was admirable. Altogether he strikes us as fully up to the actor who personated the character with such surpassing excellence on former occa sions. Mr. Mortimer made a most suc cessful Leslie Blackburn. Miss Burt was specially happy in her rendition of her dual characters. The Irish lawyer, Dionvsius O'QaU, was a decided improvement on the person who appeared in the same character last year. But we cannot particularize farther. We repeat, it was a most interest ing and successful performance, and Mr. Nobles can always get a good house in Wil mington. The play tot to-night is well spoken of by competent critics who may be trusted. kWe hope there will be no empty seats. Thermomeur Beeora.

That night the child passed in suffering, and the parents without sleep. Returning home the day following, the father found the baby still worse, and while contemplating another sleep less night, the mother stepped from the room to at tend to some domestic duties, and left the father with the child. During her absence he administered a portion of the Soothing Syrup to the baby, and said nothing. That night all hands slept well, and the little fellow awoke in the morning bright and happy.
