On the other hand the Democrats have stuck to the East McClellan, Seymour, Greeley, Tilden and . U is said thirty thousand Republt--tans joined in the chorus when the band at Chicago struck up "Rally 'Round the Flag." There was "grab" in that musie, they thought. The N. Y. Herald, independent, hays Garfield's nomination will not strengthen the Republican party in any doubtful State, and will not strengthen it "in this (New York) pivotal State." Rah for Seymour ! The intelligent New York corres pondent of the Philadelphia Ledger saya Garfield's nomination was a wet blanket on the Republicans of that city. He says, on the other band, the Democrats appear to be well pleased at the selection. Garfield is to be Thurman's succes sor in the Senate. Will he resign or await his chances? If he resigns John Sherman will no doubt get his place. Blaine will be his Secretary oi State if he wants it and provided a Dem ocrat is not elected.

McClure, of the Philadelphia Times, is unquestion ably a very astute politician; There is none more so. On June 8, L telegraphs an editorial from Chicago to his paper. ' He says: : "Of the whole 75G delegates there were not a score of them who would have de liberately chosen Garfield as the Renubli can nominee. I share the general conviction oi most ol the delegates who made the nomination of Garfield, that he is not likely to prove a strong candidate. It ia possible for Democratic folly to elect the Garfield ticket. Its election will be impossible if statesmanship and patriotism shall be among the conspicuous attributes of the Democratic candidates." Col. McClure does not believe' in Garfield's corruption and says he will defend him against all assaults. But we see what ho thinks of Gar- i field's availability. Ask him and he will tell you Horatio Seymour can beat him. Here is a pen-picture of Geq. Gar field drawn by a Democrat who is skilled with the pen L. Q. Washing ton, correspondent of ;the Richmond (Ya.) Commonwealth: i "Garfield X have had ample opportunity to study both in the committee room and on the floor. He is very able and accomplished, a close student, very ambitious, and good parliamentarian and man of business. I regard him as a much more able man than Blaine, who is a ready talker, but yet only a smatterer. Gaineld is the more cunning and dangerous demagogue of the two. His speeches are more adroit and effective in inflaming Northern passion and preju dice, while at the same time there is an air of moderation and a cant of impartiality which serve to mask his objects. I have obeerved that he has, of all his crowd, the greatest art in making the strongest points. He is not a chaste orator. Hia voice has a sort of camp-meeting whine, but is full and resonant, 'and be has an air of earnestness remarkable for one who is not trou bled with inleoBu conviclious on any sub ject." i The Washington Post has beaten Garfield before the other? horso has been named. It gives him 155 elec toral votes. The .Democratic candi date is credited with 197, whilst 27 will require the "official count." Good enough. It places Conncticut, California and Oregon in the last category. It gives thelUemocrats Indiana, New Jersey, New York and Delaware. Gen. James -Abram Garfield' was born November 19, 183 lj at Orange, Cuyahoga county, Ohio. Ue was not a Methodist preacher, we ascertain, but a Disciple. He fought in many battles. Chester A. Arthur was born in New York State and is but forty-one years old. They call him General, but it is only a militia title and of no consequence. 4 Lawyers. I Raleigh News.

We failed to get our report from Wake Forest last night. We learn that the exercises were. held in the presence of a very large crowd. In the morning Dr. D. R. Wallace, of lexas, delivered the address before the literary societies. In tbe afternoon there was a plea sant reunion of tbe Alumni. The Baccalaureate sermon was delivered in the evening by Rev. Dr. Wayiand tioy t, of Brooklyn. Spirits Turpen zm e . We believe there are some 20 candidates for Bute Auditor. The Farmer and Mechanic fig ures it thus: Jarvia 444T, Fowle 491. The Carolina Central secures the right of way in Charlotte. Tbe case was heard before Judge Schenck at cham bers. Charlotte Frees: The battle be tween the Charlotte and Rock Hill chickens commences to-morrow morning near the city boundary line. Orange county instructed for Carr for Lieutenant Governor. The con vention is reported largely for Jarvis, but no instructions were given for him. The first number of the Chris tian Adcance, a 16-column paper published at Ml Airy, has made its appearance. Mr. J. W. Duggins is editor, and it is devoted to the interests of the Young Men's Christian Association. And Saul is among the pro phets. The Wilmington 8tak has a pretty well authenticated 111-year-old negro wo man, who is able to get about though her children are gray headed old boys. Iia Uigh Jfetot. Our local editor was only in fun. "Thou cana't not say I did it." Head what was said. Raleigh Journal, administration organ: Polk county is for Jarvis. Lin coln county is for Jarvis. Cleveland county it for Jarvis. Orange county instructs for Carr, and a large majority of the delegates are for Jarvia. Alamance may be set down for Jarvia. Davidson is indignant at being classed forFowle and will go almost unan imously for Jarvia. Charlotte Southern Some: We have not advocated the nomination of Gov. Jarvis, because we had doubts whether he would be able to excite enthusiasm suffi cient among the voters of the State to lead to success. We will do him the justice to stale that we do not believe a single charge that has been circulated to his discredit. Greensboro Patriot: On Mon day morning two of tbe convicts at work on the Cape Fear & Yadkin Valley Rail road, near Martinsville, in Guilford county, broke through the euatd lines and fled for their liberty. The escaped convicts were both negroes, one of them, Tom Fayne, was from Surry county, tbe other. Ed. McCauli y, from Alamance county. Raleigh Visitor: P. M. Wilson, Esq., the Secretary of the State Board of Agriculture.will have charge of the Depart ment, and will act as Commissioner till the meeting of the Board io July. Mrs. Dr. Skinner received a telegram yesterday call ing her to New Yore to attend tbe bedside of her father who was said to be in a dying condition, and she left on the 3.80 train yesterday afternoon. Greensboro Patriot: Gen. Scales is not a candidate for nomination, but if nominated will accept. Being a candidate for Governor before the people and being a candidate for the nomination before a con vention are two very distinct things. The General will accept the former, but will not of bis own motion assume the latter. This we understand clearly to be. his position from his own mouth. Raleigh Observer: They say tbat Senator Everett, of Forsyth was the only Republican here yesterday with suffi cient confidence la Garfield to .back him. Four convicts, Crawford Josey, Harri son Keeves, jonn wuion. ana . .Boners Payne, were placed in the Penitentiary yesterday by Sheriff C. F. Waggoner, of Rowan. - Judges George W. Brooks, of Elizabeth City, and Hugh L Bond, of Baltimore, arrived in the city last- evening and will open the United. States' Circuit Court to-day. Charlotte Observer: Seven can didates for Congress were visible from the door of the Central Hotel office at one time yesterday afternoon. Gen . Scales himself says he will accept 11 nominated. He ought to know. Certainly be is not a candidate "under any circumstances," if pushing his own claims and fighting for it is expected. But to use the Patriot t own italics, no mu accept it nominated. That's candidate enough. And "I think I can say by authority" of Gen. Scales himself tbat if tbe people want him as their standard-bearer he is at their service. They want him. Unoit. ReidBVille, N. C, June 7, 1880. Raleigh Post: Richmond does not instruct, but is solid for Fowlo. Nash does not instruct. County vote di vided 5 for Jarvis and 13 for Fowle. McDowell instructs for Jarvis. Post this will you. Orange is not solid; 8 for jarvis ana 10 lor Jtrowie to state Uonven tion. Franklin is 9 for Jarvis and 10 for Fowle . Henderson county instructs her delegates to State Convention for Fowle, as the choice of tbe county. Chatham failed of instruction for Fowle by but two votes. The county vote In state Conven tion will be IS for Fowle and 5 for Jarvia In this county sentiment is divided between Gov. Jarvis and Judge. Fowle. Tbe delegation to Slate Convention stands half and half, and we have 10 votes. Farmer t& Mechanic:,Qov. Jarvis was shot in the arm; and Gen. Scales was twice shot in the leg. But Major McLeod Turner was Bhot all to pieces. He is a mangled, scarred, suffering monument of his own glorious gallantry in defence of his own State and section. Wby shouldn't old "Reba" make Turner their Governor f He couldn't canvass, but his wounds would speak for him from Currituck to Cherokee. It is announced, with 'seeming autho rity, that Hon. John Manning is not in tbe field as a candidate for Judge. We take this to mean that he simply 1s making no effort to get the nomination. It is said he was "brought out" through mistake. That is to say he had intimated to his friend. Col. Thomas Ruffin, that in the event of his candidacy he himself should not enter the race. Charlotte Observer: The merits of Davidson College are gradually becom ing known to the outside world, and in a manner which ia highly satisfactory to the friends of the institution. A few weeks ago a graduate of that college, a young man, waa elected to tbe position of profes sor of chemistry in the Agricultural College of South Carolina, and here is another fea ther in her cap: The papers of tbe competi tors for the Greek prize were sefit to the occuoant of tbe professors chair in the se cond institution of the South to decide upon their relative merits. He wrote to the professor of Greek of .Davidson College, inquiring if it could be possible that the pa pera were prepared without access to the lexicon and grammar. On being told tbat they surely were the distinguished teacher expressed the greatest astonishment at the knowledge of tbe language which tbe pa pers displayed. Raleigh News : From a private telegram received in this city at a late hour last night we learn tbat a very heavy hail storm, accompanied by wind and lightning, swept over the country in the vicinity of Osgood, on tbe Raleigh & Augusta Railroad yesterday afternoon . The hail did great damage to tbe crops in its track and tbe lightning struck one house and several tele graph poles. There were no injuries to persona The Secretary of State issued thirty-six land grants during the month of May. The amount of old bonds re ceived yesterday was $12,000. The whole amount of old bonds received to date is 16,405,145, of which $3,098,300 were of the 40 per cent class; $1,684,045 of the 25 per cent, class, and $1,622,800 of the 15 per cent, class.

A correspondent of the Stab speaks in high terms of the speech of Mr. T. D. Murt pby, of Pender county, delivered at the re cent commencement at the University of North Carolina. His subject was "Cen tralization,, the tendency of Governments," and he is said to have handled tbe theme in a masterly manner. Btar. BBOKB JAIL. Georao Hirers, the Note Colore Barrlar, Break Oat or Bio Coll d Bseapo from thsconnty JTall The astounding fact was discovered yes terday morning that George Myers, the somewhat notorious colored - burglar, who was awaiting trial at the next term of tbe Criminal Court, had broken out of jail during the night previous and made good his escape. Daniel Howard, the jailor, says Myers and Joe Campbell, colored, charged with breaking into a store in Pen der county recently, were together in the same cell and both chained to the floor, another stout chain, which linked the pri soners together, being attached ' to a Btrong iron tetter which confined a.leg of each of tbe malefactors. In company with the jailor we visited the prison yesterday morn ing, when we obtained full particulars in regard to the manner in which the escape was effected, so far as they could be ascer tained. Tbe chain connecting the fetters was broken in two near the point of connec tion with the fetter attached to Joe Camp bell's leg, leaving the latter with one of the fetters and Myers with the other, which he carried off with him. This, Joe Campbell claims, was done without awaking him, he declaring that be knew nothing of Myers escape until yesterday morning. The latter then went to work and broke loose two of the lower upright bars to the cell door, first breaking off the heads to the rivets by which they were secured, and also breaking the bars off at the point where they connected with the first cross-bar, thus leaving a hole about eight by twelve inches, through which he forced himself from the cell into tbe cor ridor. He next wrencked from its position one of the pieces of iron with which the water pipe is fastened to the wall, which is a Sharp-pointed instrument, shaped some thing like a staple with one prong broken off, with which, together with two pieces of broken bars, he succeeded in removing a sufficient number of bricks from the wall immediately under the window on tbe west side of the building, near its intersec tion with tbe southern wall, to admit of the displacement of the window sill, leaving a hole in the wall about tbe size of the one made in tbe cell door, through which he forced himself, the fall to the ground be neath being from twelve to fifteen feet. There were several prisoners confined in the cells directly in the neighborhood of the one which Myers and Campbell occu pied, but they all declare positively that they heard'no noise during the night and knew nothing of the escape.until morning. We have already stated that Campbell averred tbat he knew nothing of the escape, although Myers was in the same cell with him and had one of his legs attached to one of his (Campbell's) by a strong chain. Up to last accounts no clew had been obtained to the missing prisoner, although active efforts were being made, at Howard's instigation, to effect his recapture. Myers, it will be remembered, broke into the house of Mr. D. C. Davis, in this city, some monlhsago, during the nighttime, as ia alleged, and stole a quantity of money, and was subsequently captured after along and exciting chase. At the first term of the Criminal Court after the alleged burglary look place the case was continued on account of the absence of the main wit ness, Mr. Davis, who waa very sick. At the last, or succeeding term of the Court, a motion was made to remove tbe trial to another county, 00 the ground that de fendant could not get a fair one here, which was overruled, and a motion to con tinue for the defendant was afterwards granted. The case would no doubt have come to trial at the approaching term of. the Criminal Court; hence the desperate and successful attempt to flee from justice. A PI unco of Sixty Foes Otwaa Wall. A gentleman who , was knowing to the fact, informed us yesterday that a, white man named Corbett, living at Wedgefleld, S. 0., fell down a well sixty feet deep at tbat place a few days ago, and when he was hauled out it was discovered that he was only slightly bruised. He and two or three others were engaged in cleaning out the well, and Corbett was just in the act of being lowered into it, when, by some hitch in the arrangements, he tumbled headlong into the yawning depths. Those who wit nessed the accident say Corbett turned two or three summersaults before reaching the bottom. If he had struck.on his head his death would no doubt have been instan taneous, but fortunately he landed square on his feet. Excursion to Waeeimaw lake. There will be an excursion to Waccamaw Lake on Tuesday next, the 15th mst., under the auspices of the Front Street M. K Sunday School. Tickets (to be had at Parker & Taylor's) 50 oents for the round trip. A limited number only will be sold. This will be an excellent opportunity to take an en joy able trip. Badly Bitten try a Dor. A colored girl, by the name of Martha Johnson, was badly bitten in two or three places, yesterday afternoon, by a young bull-dog belonging to onePompey Smith, living on Princess, 'between Fourteenth and Fifteenth streets. The fact was re ported at police headquarters and the .dog was killed by Officer James. " Rlagistratee Corart. Hannah Bryan, colored, was arraigned before Justice Millis, yesterday, on a peace warrant sworn out by Jane Brinson, col ored. Defendant was Ordered to give bond in tbe sum of $25 to keep the peace for sixty days and to pay the costs. WHULE rSO. 4.UUZ To-Day 's Indications. Stationary barometer, stationary or higher temperature, southerly winds, and partly cloudy weather, are the indications for this section to-day. Thermometer Record. The following will show the stale of the thermometer, at the stations mentioned, at 4.81 yesterday evening, Washington mean time, as ascertained from the daily bulletin issued from the Signal Office in this city: Atlanta 87 Augusta 89 Charleston 89 Charlotte.- .78 Corsicana,; 84 Galveston 86 Havana. 84 Indianola, 85 Jacksonville .... .90 Key West, ..88 Mobile 90 Montgomery ..... 93 New Orleans, ... .84 PuntaRaasa,. ...75 Savannah ..89 Wilmington,... .83 Appropriation for Oar Bar and Klver Final action having been taken on the River and Harbor bill as repotted by the conference committee, as we infer from our dispatches, it is now a law. Ths share in the appropriation for the Cape Fear River and Bar Improvements amounts to $70,000. Damtcei Repaired. The damages to the.county jail made by George Myers, who escaped Thursday night, have been repaired, and we learn that the County Commissioners have or dered all the cells to be examined and made thoroughly secure. i Capt. Green, of the steamer Korih Slate, reports heavy rains between Fayette yille and Wilmington, but rather light ones at the former place, and the probability is that they have been lighter alill along the upper Cape Fear beyond Fayelteville. The improvement in tharriver so far has been very "slight not exceeding three or four inches but it Is hoped that there will be a Change for the better soon. Since writing the above we learn from a private letter received here that there have been heavy and wide-spread rains above Fayetteville, and that a speedy improve ment in the river would naturally be the consequence. The letter referred to left Fayetteville since the North State. There is nothing more harrowing to the sympathetic mind than to hear a crying baby. Dr. Bull's Baby Syrup will give in stant relief to the little sufferer. For sale at all Drug Stores. f CITY ITEMS.
