The contest over the confirmation - of Simmons, the Georgia Census- Supervisor, is developing into a "heated quarrel between members of the del egation from thai State in Congress. Collector Blodgett, of St. Marys, Ga., is to be removed; he withheld $1,000 of Government funds, which be gambled away. A Washington dispatch says that Guv.

The Exo dus Comnillee continues its examinations, the teslinjooy being similar to that pre viously tvken. An American schooner and a foreign barque are reported water logged and abandoned in the track of steamers on the Florida coast. A con stitutional amendment making women eligible to the Legislature is to be sub mitted to the people of Iowa.

An actor in a theatre at Aston, England, was killed by the electric light naed in illuminating the stage. His name was Bruno. He caught hold of two brass connections and the shock killed him. In New York city knowing Repub licans think Grant will capture New York State as he has Pennsylvania. A tide in favor of Grant is on the flow and is becoming more powerful in die greatest, commercial centre. Ice may come under the head of high luxuries next summer. There is a comparative failure -of the ice crop in the North thus far, and the chance for a satisfactory harvest is growing small by degrees and beauti fully leas. Maggie Mitchell is not ashamed of her age. She says she is 44 and was born in New York. Six years ago we were told in Baltimore that she was then 45 and was a native of that city. But Maggie ought to know what she lias heard. The great railways; oppose a reduc tion in the duty on steel rails. It is now $28 per ton. In this country there are eleven Bessemer steel manufacto ries, but they all belong to one com pany. A reduction would only serve to constitute a monopoly. Tom Keogh was at Harnsburg. He says Sherman or Grant will be nominated, General Garfield is strong for Sherman and in his de nunciations of the Cameron set at 9arrisbarg. Itisnotoar fight and it will not be oar funeral. Let the mourners proceed. The Richmond State's Washington letter gires the reason why Tom Keogh was kicked out of tbe chair manship of the State Committee. It was because he was suspected of being for Grant. Keogh bad professed conversion to Sherman, but it was feared his change wa? more on the outside than on the inside. Tom will do to watch, no doubt. Tom knows, however, the buttered aide of bread. The Pension business is so im mense new plans will be resorted to and new 'expenses incurred. The Senate Pension Committee will pro pose, as we learn from the Washing ton special in the Richmond Di patch, that the whole country shall be , v II d VOL. XXV.--NO. 118. divided into Bixty districts, to each of which shall be appointed a surgeon and a clerk skilled in the pension laws. These are to visit the districts and examine the cases of all persons on the pension list, with a view of ascertaining if they are what they represent themselves to be. Mr. Bent ley, the head of the Pension Bureau, estimates that $5,000,000 is annually paid out to fraudulent pensioners, and those familiar with the subject do not think his estimate is extravagant. There were bitter times at Harris burg and the discussions were fierce and angry. Blaine would have tri umphed but for theCamerons. Bil dad, of the Richmond State, writes on the 6th: "The Blaine men here do not hesitate to say they were betrayed by Congressman Harry Bingham, of Pennsylvania, who at a critical moment assumed to speak for Blaine and whose intimate relations with him were supposed to justify: it. They say he in formed them that Blaine didn't want to fight Grant; that Grant would be withdrawn in good lime, and Blaine get' the delegation, provided he did not make Cameron mad. "Congressman Frye says nine delegates voted for Grant instructions because they thought it would not injure Blaine and would oblige Cameron. "The Grant men say it is all bosh to talk about a bargain; that Blaine could not have carried the convention by any possibility and that Gen. Bingham acted wisely under the circumstances." Miss Horton who shot young Mor gan, son of Senator Morgan, who betrayed her, is not without friends. Colonel Charles J. Colcock and Rob ert Barnwell Rbett, Jr., of South Carolina, married sisters, aunts of Miss Horton. A Washington dispatch says: ' It is said that they will not only con tribute money but being members of fami lies long noted for chivalry they will proba bly hold tbe Morgans personally responsible for the maoner in whieh Miss Horton has been treated." L, Q. Washington, in Richmond CommontoeaZth, writing from Wash ington, says. "If New York shall follow suit with a Grant delegation, and Ibe chances are that New York will do so. it will be very hard to arrest the Grant boom. "The.Grani movement waa begun in Phil adelphia about two months after he went out or tbe Presidential chtir in March, 1877. Grant was invited to Philadelphia by tbe rich men and political leaders, and the whole thing was then and there 'set up.'" U'ecorn Nortlk Carolina Railroad. -Isrfmau .

Another Lectare by Col. V. K. IUcKae A Complimentary Benefit Ten dered by Onr Citizen. It will be seen 'from the following corres pondency that Col. D. K.

The lecture will be delivered on Tuesday evening next, the 10th instant, at the Opera House, and the subject chosen, as will be seen, is the very popular one entitled "Genius and Tal ent." We hope the eloquent gentleman will indeed receive a substantial recognition of his services in the cause of literary cul ture in our midft: Coil. p.

Captain Garrason,. of the steamer D MwiSitMl 'n'li''be rivef In falling quite rapidly again, though there is plenty of water just now. N. C, SUNDAY. FEBRUARY 8, 1880. OPERA HOUSE. A Man of tno People. There is much in Mr. Milton Nobles' new play'Aman.of the People,"thatis pleasing and entertaining, but it will hardly achieve the success that his "The Phoenix" has at tained and so 'justly merits. It might, however, be a very creditable production and still fall far short of the standard of his first success. Mr. Nobles was of course admirable in tbe part he enacted and Mr. M. B. Curtis in the low comedy part of the drama achieved a signal triumph. His Tony Todd was in every way capital and stamped him at once as an actor of decided talent and Miss Burt acted the heroine, a pretty and modest sewing girl naturally and satisfactorily. Miss Langly was very good indeed as Maggie Ryder, and Mr. T. E. Jackson, the O'Gall of Friday night, was equally amusing last night as Dick Warren, "The Mystery." Miss Alice Baldwin had much more to do than in the previous piece, and did it exceedingly well. Tbe medley duetto- between Mrs. Baldwin and Mr. Curtis was charmingly given, and was again and again encored. The orchestra is a very pleasing feature of the entertainment, and both Mr. f ehr man and Mrs. Baldwin deserve special mention. Oar Cbarcnee To-Day. St. James' Church, corner, Maket and Third sts.
