Annual meeting of the Freed- mtu'i Associa-ion was held in Philadelphia. Marihrield, Mo., was a town of 800 inhabitants; out of 75 dwellings only twenty ere left standings and but few of these ere uninjured, by the tornado of Suuday last; the loss of property ia estimated at about $400,000. The meu lion of Til dn's name iD the regular Democratic Con vention at Syracuse, N. Y., was received with mingled applause and hisses; in the Tmumany Convention Seymour's name wis received with wild cheers; a committee was appointed by the latter Convention to seek harmonious action with tbe regulars, bat the proposition was refused; a fierce attack was made upon Mr. Tilden in the Tammany Convention. The cases Hga .ust Geo. YV. Wiilim9, of Charleston, iu the U. S. District Court, have been compromised at tbe rate of 40 cents on the dollar. Much damage ar.d loss of life is repot ltd in Arkansas from the storm o Sunday night. New eYork markets: Money C3 per cent; cotton easier at 12a 2c; Southern flour quiet and unchanged; wheat 35c higher, closing feverish and unsettled; corn ic better; ungraded 50T spirits turpentine dull and easier at 6ljc; rosin unchanged. Gen. Joseph E. Johnston will not bo a candidate for re-election. A duel was fought on the 14th iust., at Laucaster, S. C, between David Adams aud George Reihmoalb. Adams gave the insult and was wounded. Mr. Alexander H. Stephens is out in a three-column and a quarter letter in the Augusta Evening News in reply to Senator Gordon's letter on the census appointments. New York is' still importing very heavily. Last week the figures were 12,273,708. This is said to be the largest for many years. The follies of 1S73 threaten to be repeated. Postmaster General Key thinks it ill-advised to mention his name in connection with the 'candidacy for Vice Presideut. He appreciates the compliment, &o. lie had never sought office, and never should. There are six ex-Governors of the Republican stripe in Massachusetts, and they all so love the constitution of their fathers they are for Grant. When they die we are glad to believe that patriotism and wisdom will still survive. The Hancock boom is growing. Louisiana is for him. Texas, it is said, will be for him also. Vermont is inclined to favor him. If Penn sylvania gies him its 58 votes he will go to the Convention with a very respectable following. What becomes of the specie ? During the year 1879 eighty million dollars of gold was received from foreign countries alone. Some twenty-five million were coined. This, added to what was on hand, makes a big sum. Where is it hid ? The President has approved of the following Appropriation bills: "The Pension bill for the next fiscal year commencing July 1, 1880, appropria ting 123.400,000; the Star Route, . postal, Deficiency, appropriating $1,250,000; the Indian Deficiency, $135,000; and the Defi ciency for legislative contingent fund, 124.012. There is a belter outlook in Vir ginia. It is thought that the coali tion scheme is dead -already. Grant is the favorite of the Republicans. It iabelieYed that they will set up a straight out ticket of their, own and will not coalesce with the Mahone hybrids. It would perhaps be a good thing eyery member of the Democratic state Convention, that is to be, could visit some eighteen or twenty coun ties south and east of Raleigh. It oie Morn VOL. XXVI.-NO. 26. would save the country from com mitting some serious blunders, it mky be, in the way of nominations. Verb, sap. . Philadelphia has a great curiosity. A baby boy, child of John Salter, once beautiful and white, changed its color completely, and its brown wavy hair became blaok and stiff. It looked like a negro. The Phila delphia Iress has a long history of the case. We, have only room for the following: "At last he became as black as a fall blooded negro. Then he was attacked by convulsions, which grew more frequent and violent until they threatened the child's life. It was in one of these that Dr. Rey nolds, of Eighteenth and Poplar streets, was called in. He succeeded in curing the spasms and then devoted his attention to the strange disease which afflicted the child. He recognized it as mslanosioa or pigmentation, which is mentioned in the books iu a general way, but there is ho case given where it had developed all through the body. This was over sixteen months ago, the child being then thirteen months old. Since that time the boy has greatly improved, by degrees becoming lighter, until.now be is of a light chestnut-, brown color. The hair has once more he come brown and soft, and the eyes have regained their natural appearance." Senator Vance says that Tilden could not carry North Carolina if nominated. Representative Davis, of the Fourth District, expresses the opinion that Mr. Tilden's nomination would jeopardize Democratic success in the ol4 North State, particularly if Grant should be the opposing candidate. The negroes, he says, look upon Grant as their savior arid would support him en masse. Til den's nomination would discourage the Democratic masses, and very many, tired of being in the minority, and assuming Grant's election as a foregone conclusion, would identify themselves with the Republican party. The State, close at the best, could not be held for Tilden. In this opinion the other North Carolina Democrats oonour. Wc learn from the Richmond State's letter that the desk referred to on our second page bears the fol lowing inscription: ' "Thomas Jefferson gives this writing desk to Joseph Coolidgc, Jr., as a memo rial of bis affection. It was made from a drawing of his own by Ben. Randall, cabinet-maker of Philadelphia, with whom he first lodged on his arrival in that city in May, 1776, and the identical one on which he wrote tbe Declaration of Independence. Politics as well as religion baa its supersti tions; these gaining strength with time may one day give imaginary value to this relic for its association with the birth of tbe great charter of our independenc3." The Baltimore Sun's Washington letter of the 18th says of the Repub lican delegation from this State: - "The Republicans of the sixth Congres sional District of North Carolina met on Thursday last, and elected O. J. Spears and W. R. Myers delegates' to Chicago, and instructed them to vote for Grant. Eighteen of the twenty delegates from Worth Carolina have now been elected. The Grant men claim twelve, and concede six to Sherman. The Sherman men claim eight. Tbe seventh district is yet to elect, and will probably send Grant men." Oar North Carolina inventive ge-' nius, Dr. Galling, is attracting atten tion in England by his new gun.' It was exhibited on the 27th of March 1 at the offices of Sir W. Armstrong, the manufacturer, before a number of experts. The fearful weapon is capa ble of firing a thousand shots per minute and killing a man on a horse at a mile range. Spirits Turpentine Bingham's now catalogue will have 186 names. Mr. 11. J. Southerland did hot lose his pocket-book. It was at home. Warren News: The R. & G. R.

Quite a delegation from this place attended the services. ! If it were not that some smart fellow would say that we were slandering our brethren we would intimate delicately that we find news items very difficult to overtake at this writing. .Rev. J. P. Simpson publishes; a strong card in the Goldsboro Mestenqer rela tive to his relation to the M. E. Church and tbe course of Rev. Mr. Barrett. He is a gentleman of good abilities and is an eloquent preacher. !; Goldsboro Messenger: MfvCarson Edwards, living a mile and a half from Snow Hill, lost his house, a large two-story building, with almost everything it con tained, by fire yesterday afternoon. !j It caught from a log pile close by.

WILMINGTON, Concord Sun: The Republicans, it is said, will run a campaignpaper in Con cord this summer. It is no use to bother yet about the fruit being killed. Prof. Mc Anulty, who predicted the late snow, tells us that on the first of May we will have a frost that will kill everything. Hiokory Jfyess: As to the peaches in this section, as far as we are able to learn.they are almost totally destroyed. The cherries, pears and several others are ma terially damaged, but think the apple crop is very safe thus far. The wheat crop throughout the county was looking very promising more so than the oldest farm era ever knew, bnt aince the recent cold weather it is showing signs of being affected by turning yellow. Salem Press: We regret to learn that the several heavy frosts this week have well nigh destroyed the fruit crop prospect, which was so flattering. We learn that the dwelling house of Solomon Tise, with contents, near Bethania, in this coun ty, was destroyed by fire on Monday night last. Lewis C. Hanes, Esq, will commence the publication of a newspaper, entitled the Lexington Exchange, in Lexing ton, Davidson county. Democratic in politics. Salisbury Watchman : Mr. John A. 8nider informs us that he has discovered a new gold mine in about three miles of -this place that promises to be aa rich as any heretofore found in the county. The mining business ia rather looking up in this county. The Northern companies that be gun operations at several of the Rowan mines last year are still working with fine prospects of success. Other mines and veins are opening up, all showing that gold greatly abounds in this section. Statesville Landmark: There is no doubt of the fact that the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad desires to secure control of the road from here to Charlotte, with a view to using it as a link in its proposed Southern connection, and it is quite well known that Mr. Garrett has proposed to Mr. Myers to give him what money he needs to finish to pay off all the dabts of the Company and put the road in first-class condition, he (Mr. Garrett) to be reimbursed by the issue of new bonds to the amount of $200,000, which he wiU take. The Statesville Landmark gives a graphic account of a fight that occurred between W. A. Bartley and Marcus Hooper. Tbe latter shot Bartley through tbe arm, killing his mule. Bartley then advanced, got the pistol from his antagonist, and with it worked on tbe countenance of that gen tleman. It is said that from his chin to the back of bis neck there was no sound- ness whatever nothing but wounds and bruises. Those who saw the job pronounce it the work of an artist's hand; no such frescoing was ever before seen in north Iredell. Chapel Hill Ledger: Another convict made good his escape from the University Railroad on Wednesday morn ing last. Mr. W. A. Betts, of the Senior Class of tbe University, has accepted a call to tbe General Secretaryship of tbe Young Men's Cnristian Association of the city of Charleston, South Carolina. In connection with this work he has received tbe appoint ment of Traveling Secretary for the State Association . Having stood his final exam inations, by special permission of the Faculty, he leaves the village to-day for his work. The Biblical Recorder repeats its statement that there are 189,000 Baptists in North Carolina. It says "The Bap tists of North Carolina have teventy-five District Associations. Each of these asso ciations holds an annual session. To these annual sessions each church belonging to the association sends two or three delegates and a church Utter containing a statement of its spiritual and financial condition, with the changes in its membership during the previous year. Those baptised, received by letter, dead, dismissed and expelled are all put down, and at the end of the line is given the total number in full fellowship at the time the letter is written. So there is no difficulty in knowing exactly how many Baptists there are in North Carolina, or the United Slates. There is no guessing in tbe matter, nor any room for a guess by any body." Statesville Landmark: Last Sunday week Rev. Dr. W. A. Wood preached at Rev. P. P. Winn's church (Concord), and Mr. Winn preached at Dr. Wood's church in Statesville. Last Sun day Dr. Wood occupied his own pulpit and preached from the same text that Mr. Winn had preached from tbe Sunday be fore, delivering a sermon which was identi cally the same, in all of its leading ideas, as that of Mr. Winn's, the Sunday previous, the pastor even quoting several of the pas sages of Scripture which his substitute had employed tbe Sunday before. Mr. J. S. Ramsey was thrown from his sulky, last Monday, by his horse running away, and bad a gash cut in his head, an ankle sprain ed, and was bruised up in a general way, but is able to be about again, albeit on crutches. On Tuesday last Miss Jane Houston, a maiden lady, 75 years of age, living near the Buffalo Shoals, on the Ca tawba river, in Sbiloh township, was seized with dizziness as she arose from a chair in which she had been silting, and fell for ward to the floor. Her left arm was doubled up under her body, and tbe bones of the wrist were badly shattered. THE CITY. NBff ADVEBTlSBKIEKTSi L. Vollers Call and see. J. C. Munds Vapo-cresolene.

E. church, on Second, between Dawson and Wright streets, erected on the site of the one lately destroyed by fire, is now about completed, and is a very handsome and neat church edifice, being a great improvement on the old one. A Visitor Impreaalona Literary. Mr. Henkel, of the New Market (Va.) SJienandoah Valley, who was recently here on a visit, writes an interesting letter to bis paper from Wrightsville bound, in which he says: "Wrightsville is destined to be come an Atlantic City. Already many hundreds of people come here and spend the hot summer months. They rough it, finding good, plain' table board at $24 00 per month. Many sleep in hammocks out doors, and tbe dress is very plain. The bathing men, women, children is al raoBt constant, and most all are excellent 'swimmers.' Men are to be seen with broad brimmed straw bats, in rough loose fitting flannel suits, which are used for 'dress and bathing suits.' " The writer was evidently very favorably impressed with Wrightsville. Iu a post script he says: "Since writingthe above, we have had the pleasure of reading several initiatory chapters of a most charming and fascinating novel, descriptive of sound and ocean life. It bears the name "Ocean Side; or, Life on the Sound," if we mistake not, and will be completed and perhaps published this coming Fall. If published, which we hopo will be done, we think every reader of it will be charmed, and will not be alow in giving doe praise to its au thor, one of the South' most gifted young ladie8-" Produce Exchange Appolaimenli.

The rooms of the Historical Society were filled last evening by a very large audience to listen to the lecture of the above named gentleman. His subject was Fort Johnson at the mouth of the river, and its connection with the early history of this section, and was exceedingly interesting and instruct ive. His description of the Fort and its surroundings, in the opening portion of his address, was extremely graphic; the numer ous islands that doited its front, the ship ping riding gracefully at anchor, with their twinkling lights, and the sound of their tinkling bells announcing the hours, while in the far distance the "light-house blazed like a star in the midst of the ocean." But in describing the intetior of the Fort, with its gravelled Walks, its verdant shrubbery, and the rustic seats, where maidens sat and looked out upon the deep with eyes that rivalled the stars in brightness, it was evi dent his heart was in his theme, and that he had written. that portion of his address at least eon amore. ..The lecturertated that Foit Johnson, named after Gen. Gabriel Johnson, was built in 1745, and since then it had witness-, ed the passing away of five different govern ments: the Proprietrry, the Colonial, the State, the Federal and Confederate. "Many new facts in our early history were men-' tioned, among them one not generally known, namely, that it was Cornelius Har nett who marched at the head of a body of acaned men, numbering nearly six hundred, to Brunswick, and demanded of Gov. Tryon in person that Pennington, who bad been appointed Stamp Master in place of James Houston, should be delivered up. This account, taken from Gov. Tryon's letter book in the Executive Office at Ra leigh, clearly shews that Harnett was the master spirit in the movement. Many other incidents, evincing great research and laborious industry on the part of the lecturer, and of great interest to our people, not only in this particular locality, but in the State generally, were men-; tioned, but we have not time in this hur ried notice to refer to them, as we would like much to do. The lecturer closed his address by draw ing a parallel between the life of man and of States and governments, which was well conceived, eloquently expressed, and im pressively delivered. A CARD. Wilmington, N. C, April 20, 1880. Mr. C. II. Robinson : Dkab Bib Will you do me the kindness to state, as presiding officer of the Demo cratic Convention, held on Saturday even ing, April 17th, whether any point of order was raised, or decided against me, during the session of that Convention, or whether you ruled my declension of appointment as committeeman out of order. Yours, truly, Roobb Moore. Wilmington, April 20, 1880. Col. Roger Moors : Dbab Bib I have your note of this date asking if a point of order was raised and decided against you during the sitting of the New Hanover Democratic Convention. I do not consider that the point of order was raised or deabjed against you. When the Convention named the Executive Com mittee, you moved to substitute :two other names for your Ward. The Convention voted this down. When you declined to serve, and as Chairman, I remarked to you the committee could fill any vacancy oc curring, and so the matter was left. I am sure it was the wish of the Conven tion that you should serve on the commit tee, on account of your well known ability and your desire for the harmony and suc cess of the party. Your statement as made in your card I conaider correct, but I understood the Con vention did not act on your declining to serve, hoping you would consent, after due consideration, to serve. Yours, truly, U. H. Robinson. We have yet to see wherein we did Col. Moore an injustice in publishing his name in our report of the proceedings of the re cent Convention as having been appointed a member of the Executive Committee from the Second Ward, or wherein we were wrong in so doing. By the testimony of the Chairman of the Convention "so the matter was left;" his declination was not accepted, and no action taken on the sub ject. When the Chairman took tbe posi tion that the Convention had no right to accept his resignation, and that the com mittee had tbe right to fill its own vacan cies, we understood it as ruling Col. Moore's declination out of order. KIVSr'Tn 7 flAHlNE. The lhetis, Rudloff, hence for Stettin, passed Deal on the 7th inst. Barque Oedrge Davis, Campbell, hence, arrived at Granton on the 5th inst.
