There are some papers that like to see it written Newyork. There is no accounting for taste. Louisiana Democrats have set Acklen asid. It is thought that he will ruu as an Independent and be supported probably by the Republi cans. Last Sunday's New York Herald contained 4,446 advertisement?, a greater number than ever before ap peared in any one paper in this country. Tlie District Attorney, of Phila delphia, has been challenged to fight a duel by one of the persons con cerned in the duel already repotted. It may Lecorae epidemic yet. The Richmond State and Whig have appeared in new and tasteful dresses recently. The State is a fa vorite with us. The Whig is able and might be belter employed. The Richmond Dispatch's letter from Washington, of April 15, says: "A r.umber of Congressmen have said to your correspondent to-night that they are certain Mr. Tilden will not be before the (Cincinnati Convention." During the year 1879 one million and a half hogs died, valued at $10, 500,000. This is from reports in 1,193 counties only. It is supposed that it would require $20,000,000 to cover the entire loss. The leading Republican paper in Michigan is edited by Mr. Bingham who is now in Washington. The Dispatch letter says: "He says that if Grant is nominated 15, 000 Republicans in that State will bolt, and that Michigan and Wisconsin will become doubtful States. He nrges the Michigan Convention to instruct for Blaine." John G. Lamb, a native of Phila delphia, died on the 14tb inst. He was for forty-three years a clerk in Ihe first comptroller's office in Wash ington. His father held the same position during forty-three years. So father and son worked for eighty six consecutive years in the same clerkship. Senator Voorbees is credited with having made an excellent speech in behalf of the Mexican veterans on Monday. The Washington Post says of the pension claims: "If there-is" any part of oar National ob ligations more sacred than any other, if there is any item of the annual budget in which the people take special piide, it is the pension appropriation. There are ways enough in which we can economize with out being stingy to the brave men who fought under the National ensign." The editor of the New York World is named Hurlburt. He is in Wash ington and is reported by "Bildad" in the State as saying: "He says Randall will be defeated in the rennsyivania Convention, and lhatTilden's name will cot be before the Cincinnati convention." As he is not in the confidence of neither Tilden nor Randall he may not know really any more about it than any other man in New York or Washington. - -r'?i.r--'" J r ii--rv v -7 X VOL. XXVI.NO. 22. It is said the Presidential question absorbs everything in Washington. lilden is still at work trying to cap ture Republican State delegations that will vote against the Democratic nominee. Hancock's and Field's friends are hard at work. The Wash ington correspondent of the Rich mond Dispatch writes: "You hear very little of Mr. Hendricks. but his friends here are not idle, and the members of his club I found to-day send ing off. documents by thousands some to Virginia. Tbe action of Louisiana has stimulated the Hancock men amazingly, and they, too, are hard at work in and out of Pennsylvania. Field's organization is a capital one, and is doing a vast amount of work. Not only has his dissenting opinions been spread broadcast over the whole coun try, but I bear they are to be published in hundreds of newspapers. They say to night, aa they did last week, that the con test is between Field and Seymour. Mr. Thurman, who is the ablest American statesman in public life, has a following, bat it keeps quiet and is doing nothing to wards advertising his claims." It is believed that Pennsylvania will vote for Hanoock. Tbe same correspondent stumbled upon a squad of four Democrats from Connecticut, New York, Virginia and Missouri, and they were all for Seymour, "be cause, they said, he could certainly be elected." As between Grant and Blaine the following speculation from "BildadV letter in the Richmond Stale will be read with interest: "Private advices received here from the North state that Grant will have but two delegates from the six New England States on the first ballot, which is a sad falling off from tbe large calculations tbe third termers have been making. Two delegates from the interior of New York State write in a tone that hints at a revolt against Conk- ling's programme; and information of the same character comes frequently from Penn sylvania, but is stoutly denied by tbe Uraot men here, and by -Don Cameron himself. Cameron certainly feels sure of his power over the Pennsylvania delegates for the first ballot; bat they boast at the Blaine headquarters that Blaine will turn the unit rule against Grant 'at the proper time,' and hold almost the entire Pennsyl vania delegation ; that they will feel secure in doing this because tbe sentiment of two thirds of the Republicans in that State is for Blaine. Blaine will have one-half of Illinois and all the Pacific States, except Nevada, which will-support Grant." Spirits Turpentine. The corner stone of a Baptist Church has just been laid at Charlotte.

Wilson Advance : As a general thing the farmers in this section have planted much larger crops of cotton than ever before. Greensboro Patriot: Rumor has it ibat tbe Pennsylvania Railroad Company has recently disposed of its entire interest in tbe Richmond & Danville Railroad Com pany, to whom, we cannot learn definitely. New Berne Nut Shell: A tele gram received in this city, announces tbe death from paralysis, in Baltimore, on Tuesday, of Mr. Moses VV.

The Big Falls Manufacturing Company are pusnmg tbe work of building their new factory rapidly ahead. Tbe walls will be com pleted this wees. Machinery will go in mis fall. Warsaw Brief Mention: But how is it in our State? "Everything for tbe cause, nothing for the man," should be the sentiment. Gen. Scales is the strong est man, it is thought. Then Gen. Scales is the man, for undoubtedly we need tne strongest man. The Snow Hill Advocate states that petitions have been forwarded to Hon. W. H. Kitcmoat waaningion, memorializ ing Congress to grant an appropriation for the survey of MocaSin river, from tbe point at which it empties into tbe Neuse to tbe Wilmington & Weldon Railroad, covering a distance of 75 miles, more or less. The Hon. A. M., Scales, who re cently visited bis home in Greensboro, is reported by tbe Patriot saying: "I believe Gen. Grant will be nominated. The men who usually manipulate conventions will be largely for him, and he will probably distance all competitors. While this is so I do not believe he is tbe strongest man. There are many elements of opposition combining against him." Ground was broken on the Cape Fear and Yadkin Valley Railroad last Saturday. There were no speeches and no music The Greensboro Beacon says : Hon. D.'F. Caldwell filled tbe first wheelbarrow, and Andrew Joyce, Esq., of Danbury, moved off with it and dumped it on the road-bed.

Fayetteville Banner We re gret to learn that the still, 159 barrels of toi pentine and 750 barrels of rosin, the property of Messrs. Autry & Culbretb, were burned at Starling's Bridge, in this county, on the evening of the 7th Instant. Supposed to be the work of incendiaries.

Myrover was elected teacher to fill the vacancy occasion ed by the resignation of Mr. John B. Broad foot, who has accepted the position of teller tendered him by the People's National cans. Charlotte Democrat: We learn that two negro children were burnt to death in a house on the plantation of Mr. James JtUDg, six miles from Monroe. The rather and mother left the children alone in tbe house, .when the children probably began playing with the fire, and set themselves and tbe buildine on fire. Same old story. -r It is now thought that the road from Knoxville up the Tennessee river through Rabun Gap to some point in Georgia will De Duut. it does not advaoee tne in terests and welfare of the colored people to organize military companies. The Ob server says there "are less than five hundred men in this city who pay a poll tax." Why is that so? Why are not all who are iiable to a tax made to pay? Are there not at least one thousand men in Charlotte liable to a poll tax? Charlotte Observer: The new colored company did make some organiza tion Tuesday night, and will perfect it on Monday night next at Centennial Hall. ' The Hornet's Nest Riflemen, at their last meeting, received several additional members. The armory has also been en larged, and will be nicely fitted up. Mr. Best and his associates, Messrs.

Road this morn ing to attend the meeting of the private stockholders of tbe road at Hickory to-day. It is understood that these gentlemen will make efforts to purchase all the private stock they can. It is probable that Mr. Best will make some announcement of his policy at this meeting, as he goes on to Asheville in a few days with his family, and takes charge of the road as soon as the transfer can be made, and the necessity for reserve will no longer exist. Charlotte Press: The Tate Bros, of Mountain Island Mills factory, we regret to learn, sustained a loss of $2,500 on yesterday, by a destruction of their dry ing establishment from a defective flue, which ignited the Wood work and burned tbe entire structure. No insurance. Charlotte will be still more the City of Rail roads If the "Pittsburg Southern," which is heading this way is built and it has been started, and from the way the surveying party is at work between Statesville and WinstOD, the Virginia Midland ia coming. But after all, one large cotton factory is worth a Railroad. Several of these and a few tobacco factories will tend more to make Charlotte what she is destined to be, one of the large cities of the country, than anything else. Logan Harris, of Ra leigh, in his last letter to the New York limes, tells lots of things, some of which may be true. He says Gov. Jarvis and Tom Holt are one and the same, and will work together. Holt is to be Lieutenant Governor, and when Jarvis gets Ransom's place in the Senate. Holt will be Governor. (Very likely! When the skies fall you will catch larks. Stab.) Goldsboro Messenger: Mr. R. J. Soutbcrland. a very clever merchant of Mount Olive; had the misfortune to lose his pocket book while in town here yester day morning, containing about $300 in money, a deposit certificate for $400 on the Bank of New Hanover, payable to Mr. Robert Williams, and some other papers. Col. Wm. A. Allen, of Duplin, was in attendance at our Superior Court this week. We are assured by prominent Duplin De mocrats, that Duplin will give Col. Allen a most enthusiastic and undivided support in the Congressional Convention. To supply a want long felt in this county, we have just completed a contract with Prof. E. P.

An exchange says: A one-armed negro boy in Augusta has saved four persons from drowning. This is nothing, however, for Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup has saved thou sands from consumption. - . t lNCENDlABlsra. Tbe Fire Yesterday morulas. Yesterday morning, shortly after o'clock, fire was discovered issuing from the residence of Mr. Herman Hinlze, on Market, between Thirteenth v and Four teenth streets. The alarm was given, but the party starting it had to run to the cor ner of Market and Seventh streets to reach a telephone box. In " the meantime the flames had spread rapidly, having comma nicated to the store, with dwelling above, owned by Messrs. Adrian & Vollers, and occupied on the second floor by Dr. T. B, Carr. tbe store being untenanted. The fire department arrived promptly on the ground and were instrumental in saving same of the neighboring buildings. The two buildings first alluded to were totally consumed, scarcely a vestige being left be sides the brick foundation and chimneys. The fire was first discovered by Mr.Veaney, residing'on tbe opposite Bide of the street, who shouted fire and then huriied to arouse the occupants of Mr. Hinlze's building, consisting of his children and their nurse, Mr. Hintze himself being absent. The door of the room occupied by tbe nurse and the smaller children had to be burst open, and they narrowly escaped with their lives. Fire had been set to the house, no doubt, and it was apparently placed in such a position as to cut off the escape of the nurse and children from their room, which was on the second floor of an addi tion to tbe main building, tbe lower floor being used as a dining room. Tbe villains had placed three barrels filled with com bustible material on a line with the divi sion between the main building and tbe addition. But for tbe prompt discovery of the fire by Mr. Veaney tbe children and nurse, Ellen Smith,- would no doubt have perished in the flames. As it was, they es caped with nothing but what tbey had on their- backs, tbe entire contents of the building, with the exception or a few articles of parlor furniture being consumed. Mr. Hintze lost, besides his furniture, all of his late wife's jewelry, all of his books and valuable papers, including notes, ac counts, deeds, etc , and $115 in money which he had collected the day previous. Dr. Carr, with the assistance of friends, including members of the fire department, succeeded io saving about all of bis furni ture, a small portion of it, however, being ia a damaged condition. Mr. Hintze bad $1,000 iusurauce on bis dwelling and $500 on household and kitch en furniture, in the Royal, of Liverpool, represented by Mr. Norwood Giles. Messrs. Adrian & Vollers were insured for $2,100 on building and store fixtures, in the Franklin, of Philadelphia, represented by Mr. Norwood Giles. Dr. Carr's loss on furniture was covered by insurance in tbe Wilmington Mutual, represented by Mr. S. N. Cannon. Since writing the above we learn that Mrs. Von der Leidta, a German lady, em ployed as housekeeper by Mr. Hintz?, lost about $209 in clothing and furniture, upon which there was no insurance. Tbe nurse also lost her clothing and effects. Not a a AflrajV We find that tbe item in our last, headed "An Affray in Pender" does injustice to at least one of the parties mentioned. Mr. Mahn, who is now in the city, informs us that there was no affray; that he was not a willing party to the difficulty; that he went to Mr. Barden's place at tbe solicita tion of his (Mr. Mabn's) brother, and ac companied by him, to look after certain stock which he claimed Mr. B. held with out his authority and sanction, with the view of making a personal demand for the same; and that upan making such demand, and endeavoring to secure possession of tbe property, be was assaulted by Mr. Bar den be (Mr. M.) only acting in self-defencc,and in the interest of justice and peace. We knew nothing personally of tbe affair, and of course intended no reflection upon Mr. Mahn as being otherwise than a peace ful, law-abiding citizen. Champion Alligator. There was a huge alligator on exhibition at the head of the old market house yes terday afternoon. His alligatorship was shot and killed by parties on the steamer John Davison, during the early part of the afternoon, about sixteen miles up tbe Black river. It is said to be the largest alligator ever seen in this section, measuring just eleven feet in length, five feet across the arms, eighteen inches from the tip of the lower to the tip of the upper jaw, and sixteen inches across the mouth; bis weight being estimated at about four hundred pound?. Tbe monster's mate, about the same siza, was killed at tbe same lime, but sunk to tbe bottom of the river, and could not be secured. His alligatorship attracted as large a crowd as the "Lightning Calcu lator" or Dr. Red Syn. Tbe Infanticide Case. The jury of inquest in the case of Susan Waddell, colored, met at the Court House yesterday morning, at 10 o'clock, and after deliberating some hours finally returned a verdict that the deceased child came to its death through tbe intentional neglect of its mother, Susan Waddell. The girl was subsequently committed to jail without the benefit of bail, provision for ber accommo dation being made in the debtor's room for tbe present. - Lecture.

Falling barometer, warm shifting to cooler westerly winds, partly cloudy weather and occasional rains, are the indi cations or this section to-day. Alarms of Fire. The roof of a dwelling on the corner of Seventh and Church' streets caught flre at about half past 11 o'clock yesterday morn ing, but the flames, were extinguished without much damage, by the prompt ap plication of a few buckets of water. There was no general alarm . A regular alarm was sounded about 12 o'clock, caused by tbe ignition of the roof of a building in tbe neighborhood of the Cape Fear Fibre Works. The employes at the Messrs. Kiddei's mill made a simulta neous assault upon the fire and squelched it without the aid of the fire department. Conntr Convention.
