The Richmond Commonwealth is
publishing letters from "prominent"
Virginians as to the . Presidential
nomination. They are mostly from
Field supporters. Among them we
note that ex-Governer 8miin is for
Tilden and ex-Governor Kemper is
for Field. It would be easy in North
Carolina to collect many columns of
letters from our leading men who are
for Seymour.

-r The debate on the - Spofford-KBl-
9gS .oa8o promises : to be Extended
througb'days. Ben :Hilltia reported
as getting tne aa vantage; of iioar,
"Whilst Blaine got in '- some I effective
blows byj charging that theif e was an
arrangement of some kind by which
Kellogg was to be seated on the
merits of ' the . case, an d Butler, of
South! Carolina, was to be seated
upon the faith of his' credentials.
"Bildad, of the Riohmood.a, on
the 27tb, writes : I
"Blaine got the floor again and returned
to the alleged arrangement, and this time
he was fortified with a record of proceed
ings in the Seriate which showed that
after a long sitting, during which both
parties proved their power and;' resolution
to defeat the seating of either of the
claimants (Butler or Kellogg) unless the
other be admitted; and when only one
more day remained of the cession Sena
tor Thurman remarked that phe hoped
and believed some agreement could be ar
rived at if the Senate would remain in Bes
aion a little while longer. Later in the
night Senator Edmunds asked that 'unani
mous consent be given to come to an agree
ment among the Senators, andi stated his
proposition, which was to vote ob the Kel-log-Spofiord
case at a certain hour that
night, and that the- Butler-Corbin case be
voted within an hour after that was dis
posed of.
"Senator Thurman said, 'I hope the pro
position will be agreed to, and 1 1 ask my
Democratic friends on ibis floor to agree to
it, and to trust to me that it will result in
an arrangement perfectly honorable and
fair to both parties.'
"This proposition was accepted without
dissent, and in pursuance of the agreement
successive votes were takenfirst, upon
sealing Spofford, which was negatived by
years 27, nays 29; next, upon a resolution
that Kellogg is, 'upon the merits of the
case,' &c., which was agreed to;i by a strict
party vote; next, upon a simple motion
that 'Butler, of South Carolina,' be sworn
in as a Senator from that State; which was
agreed to yeas 29, nay a 28."
English reports are to the effect
that when tbe Queen summoned Lord
Hartington to Windsor that he was
treated .with marked shabbiness.
Here is what is said:
"There was no carriage at the;' station to
lake fiim to the palace. 11a therefore
walked to the Castle quite a'.onej He found
no oae to receive him at the entrance to the
grounds. When the interview; was over
the Queen and her gold aticks an wailing
allowed his lordship to walk back to the
railroad station in a drenching rain."
We are glad she has been forced
to yield. Tory principles ate no ex
cuse for bad manners or official dis
courtesy, ii
The Philadelphia Presst Republi
can organ, charges that .the most
glaring frauds are daily perpetrated
in the office of Court of Quarter Ses
sions of that city. It says:.
"Five thousand liquor rcenscare annu ¬
ally issued in Philadelphia. Two thousand
have already been taken out for the year
1880. and of these it may be safely inferred
that not one hundred have anything but
forged bonds upon which to ba8e their is

eve a one has received tbe approving signa
ture or tbe District Attorney j; - which the

reports that a fore-and-aft schooner, said
to be a German, was discovered yesterday
inside of New Inlet Bar and' anchored
quite close up to the rock wall with which
the Inlet has been recently closed. The
question is, how did she get there? She
must, to use the expressive phraseology of
a seaman, have "come in on the very top
of the tide;" and if she gets out again she
will have to go the same way. She might
be considered in somewhat dangerous
quarters if a gale of wind should spring up
from an unlucky quarter before she changes
her location.

It is a well ascertained physiological fact
that tbe origin of most of the ills that afflict
numanity is a deranged condition of the al
imentary canal. . The .bowels become con
stipated and slncrzish. and thence arises a
train of painful and distressing maladies
as a preventive ana cure there is no reme

MBS. WINSLOW'S SOOTHING STBUP. Rev.
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.- Most parents can appreciate these blessings.
Here Is an article which works to perfection, and
which is harmless; for the sleep which it affords
the infant is perfectly natural, and the little cherub
awakes as "bright as a button." And during the
process of teething its value is incalculable. We
have frequently heard mothers say they would not
be without it from the birth of the child till it had
finished with the teething siege, on any considera
tion whatever. Sojd by ail druggists. 95 cents a

MR. HEINSBERGER,
Dear Sir, I hereby tender you
my thanks for the splendid Stieff Piano you fur
nished for my entertainment given Tuesday even
ing at Masonic Hall. I enjoyed playing upon the
instrument very much. - It la the best- Si lea Piano
I have ever played upon. The tone is round and
full and "carries" well. The touch Is elastic, sym
pathetic and prompt, and really does every thing
that one requires of It. -
I hope you will continue to keep such Instru
ments on hand, and introduce them to the musical
community of Wilmington as thoroughly as their
merits demand. Yours, sincerely,
. . . JOS. fl. DENCK.
