Enniss's North Carolina Farmer, published at Raleigh, is a monthly of real merit. It deserves a large pa tronage. Terms 81 a year. Gen. Uoger A. Pryor, one of the irri-aU'st, political speakers in this country, has made a Hancock and English speech in New York. All of the cadets who were gradu ated recently at West Point have been assigned commands in the Army with tbe rank of Second Lieutenants. Is it a fact that Garfield was one ol the military commission who mur dered Mrs. Surratt ? We hope not. He has political and personal sins enough without that. At Middletown, Vermont, a young woman, named Harriet Packard, was dragged at midnight from her bouse and tarred aud feathered by a mob of masked men. They call that the "higher civilization," or something of the sort. The Horner School, Oxford, N. C, tad 52 pupils during the scholastic year. Among them we find the oamesjjf two Wilmingtonians, name Jy. W. S. Devano and O. G. Parsley, It is one of the best schools in tho country. David Dudley Field is a lawyer of the highest rank among living Ameri cans. Here is his testimony as to Hancock's capacity: "Some years ago I had tbe good fortune l act as counsel for Gen. Dyer on a court "i inquiry formed of Gens. Thomas, llan jc and Terry.

VOL. XXVI. NO. 89. The Raleigh Netos is paying its re speeds to the Stab again. It thinks the. Star opinUted, conceited, &c. Very well. The Stab has opinions, and expresses them plainly and point edly on occasions. It lakes leave to say that the News, in attempting to describe the Stab holds the mirror up to nature and describes itself. But we do not object, for we like a paper that has the courago of conviction and opinion even on small matters. We know of old the tone and temper of the Neust and we shall not be drawn into a mere war of words. We are quite willing to concede its superior information and wisdom, and saying that we drop the subject. Ac cording to the News the committee that elected Coke was anti-Jarvis by four majority. We shall not reour to the matter again if the statement of the News remaius unchallenged. Wo had heard that Ashe was over slaughed because he did not favor Jarvis's nomination. Others heard the same thing. We supposed there was no doubt of it. xi seems mat an is not serene in the North among the Republicans. There are some heart burnings and jealousies that are disturbing the faithful. The generally reliable Washington correspondent of the Baltimore Sun in his letter of the 30th ult. writes: "The warring factions of the Republi can party do not seem as yet inclined to Jet bygones be bygones. Ibe (Jrant men nave not become reconciled to the nomination of Garfield, or, perhaps, it would be belter to Bay. have not become reconciled to the de feat of Grant. The bitter feeling between the friends of Grant and Blaine ia on the increase. As tbe friends of Grant stuck to him to the last, and tbe Blaine men all went over to Gai field, the Grant element is quite salUQed that with Garfield as Presi- sident tbey would bare no influence what ever, while everything would be done for their enemies. The apathy of tbe friends of Urant in the coolest can, therefore, be well understood. As the friends of Grant at Chicago asserted both privately and pub licly that he was tbe only Republican who could be elected, it is not to their interest to have the ticket which was nominated triumph."

Weldon News: The crops in this section are very good, notwithstanding the extremely dry weather. Richard Baker, aged 14 years, son of Gen. L. S. Baker, of Suffolk, was drowned Saturday afternoon while bathing in Nansemond river at Suffolk. The fight between the two factions of the Republican party in this county continues with bitterness and unabated vigor. Tbe convention met in Halifax about a week ago last Monday; another convention was held on Monday of this week by tbe bolters who are oo- pessd to O'Haia's nomination. Elizabeth City Falcon: In the course of a few remarks at a meeting of the citizens of Edenton last week. Mr. A. M. Moore, speaking for tbe citizens, said tbat Edeuton would give $30,000 in bonds for the machine shops of the E. C. & N. R. R. Co. Excitement at Hertford and vicinity last week was at white heat over the stabbing of a white youth named DeLong by Major Reed, a worthless negro. Some words had passed between the two, and DeLong had turned to leave, when be was stabbed from behind, a serious, if not mortal wound, being inflicted. Goldsboro Messenger: We are surprised at the prevalent opinion tbat our distinguished colleague at Cincinnati, Judge Howard, had voted for Tilden. Not so. Judge Howard voted for Gen. Hancock first and all tbe time. It was Mr. Staples who voted for Tilden, and he only on the first ballot. Mr. A. W. Graham voted for Judge Black, and Mr. Tate for Seymour. George Williams, tbe man who stole Col. Boaman's horse, after a preliminaty trial at Snow Hill, was committed till court.. About seventy-five North Carolinians were in attendance at the Cincinnati Con vention. Raleigh correspondence: But reports from the Albemarle country indi cate a magnificent prospect, despite the dry weather. Corn was never better, it is said. The northeast was firm and united, j and secured both Governor and Auditor; the southeast, on the eontrary, and the whole Cape Fear was left out, as she has I been for many years. Would it not be well to take a lesson by experience, and come with united shields on another occasion? Raleigh News : From a gen tleman who has returned from an extended tour throughout the counties of Wilson, Halifax. Wayne. Carteret, Craven and Johnston we learn that the cotton crop in those counties is much better than usual and very far advanced. In addition to the other counties from which we have good crop reports we may mention Gates and Franklin, from both of which we heard yesterday. The boys at the Ra leigh & (Jaston Railroad shops use piles of iron axles for sofas at tbe noon receas. One of them, a luxurious cuss, adds a granite rock for a pillow. in the liovernors office yesterday we saw an old Bible bound in red vellum, on which all tbe Uovernors since 1831 have been sworn into office. The leather of tbe binding is worn through. In it were written the names of Governors Dudley, Morehead and Graham. We also saw a lot or o.d letters of Uov. Tyron, none of which bud any interest apart, from their antiquity, except one ordering an election to fill a vacancy in tbe House of Assembly as it was then called, caused by tbe expulsion of Herman Husbands, the Regulator. Greensboro Patriot: It seems from what we can learn that almost every portion of the Western part of the Stale was visited yesterday evening with severe winds and rams. At Keidsvliie tbe storm seemed more violent than elsewhere. It lasted but a short while but in its hurried fury tore tbe tin roof from Motley, Wright & Co. 'a large tobacco factory, carried off the top of the dry bouse or .Islington's rac tory, and took away the roof of Webster's Dollar Weekly building, The census enu merator in Clay township, Guilford county, found that out of about one thousand per sons enumerated, one hundred and eighty three were named Coble.

Howard Gooding, a colored pauper, who was picked up on the streets a few days since in a sick and destitute con dition, and sent to the County Poor House, died there yesterday morning from the effects of a severe hemorrhage. The new mail wagon for the transportation of the U. S. mails between tbe postofnee in this city and tbe various railroads, steamboat landings, etc., has made its annearance on our streets, and is quite an improvement on tbe old cart used for tbe ournose for peveral years pasr, be ing both neat and handsome. It is very annoying to persons unaccustomed to public speaking to be per sistently called upon to say something at political meetiogs and other public gather ings, and we allude to the fact thus early in the campaign, at the suggestion of one of the snfferers, in the hope tbat it may not be indulged in so freely hereafter, at the risk of engendeiing unpleuHntit feelings. AEafelatrate'a Court. Mary Morris, colored, was arraigned be fore Justice Gardner on n peee warrant sworn out by Anna Boston, colored." De fendant was ordered to pay costs and give bond in the sum of $100 to keep the peace. from which decision she appealed, and the same bond was required for her appear ance at Court and to keep the peace. Minnie Rhodes, colored, was before Jus tice Hall on a peace warrant sworn out by Julia Cohen, colored. Defendant ordered to give bond in tho rum of $50 to keep the peace.

Julia Cohen was then arraigned for as sault and battery, but tbe case was dis missed at tbe cost of the prosecutor, Minnie Rhodes. Johanna Taylor was arraigned before Justice Hill on a peace warrant sworn out by Mary Davis. Defendant ordered to give bond in the sum of $50 to keep the peace for three months and to pay the costs. The same defendant was arraigned on tbe affidavit of Lizzie Wiggins, charged with a misdemeanor. Cass dismissed at tbe cost of the prosecutor. Mary Davis . was next arraigned on the affidavit of Johanna Taylor, charged with assault and battery, for which she was re quired to pay $1 and the costs.

Attempt lBeaUarlaaa, jpiaeovrel Juat In the Iflelc of Time. An attempt was made Thursday night, about half past 9 o'clock, to fire the resi dence of Rev. G. W. Prieej Sr., on Sixtbi between Ann and Nun streets.; It seems a lot of combustible material, , consisting of cotton, lightwood splinters .and paper: saturated with kerosene oil, was placed im mediately under the bed-room usually oc cupied by tbe Rev. Price aud his wife, but at the time only by the latter, the husband being absent from- the city. A hand! nU of powder was also placed, with the material mentioned, from which a trail of powder: extended through the yard and under Ihe front gate to the sidewalk. At tbe hour named there was a sudden flash of powder on tbe sidewalk at the spot indicated. which communicated, by means of the, train alluded to with the powder and combustible material under the house. which produced jan. explosion as loud as tbe report of an ordinary gun. Jo seph Mitchell, colored, who resides next door, saw the flash and heard tbe explosion which followed, and hurried to the spot, when he found the cotton and other mate rial on fire and the house full of smoke. ue exunguisneu me names, wnicn were fast gaining headway, and then proceeded to quiet the fears of tbe family, who were almost frantic with alarm. Capt. Goodman, of tbe police force, was walking in tbe direction of the bouse at the time, and saW the flash of the powder, but was not near enough to arrest the. diaboli cal incendiary. A colored woman in the neighborhood also witnessed the flash. So far no due has-been obtained to the scoundrel who thus systematically went to work to set fire to a bouse iu a closely Bet- tied neighborhood, with the probability, if his plans succeeded, of also causing the death of one or more of the inmates. Bftiberaai WrlghtavlUe make a Nar row Cacape fa-em Drowning-. There came verv near beinir a most dis tressing accident at Wrightsville Sound on Thursday afternoon last, and only the great presence of mind and steadiness of nerve of one of the parties prevented the threa tened catastrophe. It appears that quite a number of ladies and gentlemen were bathing in the surf, when Mre. W. M. Parker and Mr. Ashley Gilbert, who were together at the moment, got beyond their denth and the former, who cnnld not swim. was being swept by the current out to seat Mrs. Parker's head had twice disappeared beneath the waves, when Mr. Gilbert finally succeeded in seizing her by a part of her bathing dress, when, with tbe other hand, he commenced making giant efforts to reach a point near enough to the shore to gain a footing. More than once he gave himself and companion up for lost, but finally, just as bia cries reached the cars and attracted the attention of Rev. Mr. Jurney, who was hurrying to the rescue, he gained a firm foothold upon terra firma and both were safe. Nothing but tbe presence of mind, we repeat, and the most determined exertions of Mr. Gilbert, under the circumstances, sayed 'the lives of the two imperilled bathers, 'and they have great reason for being thankful for their preservation. Both Mr. Gilbert and Mrs. P. shouted re peatedly for assistance, but in the excite ment and confusion attendant upon the sport of bathing their cries failed to reach the ears of their friends. rUayot'a Court. Tbe Mayor had only one case for his consideration yesterday morning, and that was such a cheerful subject he concluded it would keep very well until this morning, at which time it will heard. The case was that of Mary Eliza Lively, whose name has been mentioned once or twice before in connection with police circles. It seems she was cutting up some pretty . lively ca pers on the street Thursday night, cursing and swearing and defying the police. Offi cer Reuben Grant finally arrested her, when she snowed fight, seizing one of his bands in her mouth, and also catching him by the collar, when the officer felt called upon to use his club, which he did to some effect, mfliciiog a cut upon her head from which tbe blood flowed in considerable profusion. Notwithstanding this, however, she still fought and struggled, and Officer Moore had to be called upon to assist in making tbe arrest. Compliment to a Wlmloctenltn. The New York Eer aid's report of the University of Virginia Commencement has this to say of young Wilson, son. of Rev. Dr. Wilson, of this city, referred to in our editorial columns yesterday : "The orator's medal this year had been won by Mr. Thomas Woodrow Wilson, of Wilmington, N. C, who, was introduced by the preai-t dent and proceeded to make an earnest and able protest against the style in which, col- lege literary societies are conducted and to plead fumhe discussion of living questions and the making oi these societies training schools of statesmen as well as orators. He keenly satirized the Ignorance of many leading politicians, and. urged the impor-. tance of teaching young men. the principles of government His speech was an admi rable one. Election ot Officers. At a regular meeting of Excelsior Lodge No. 1,648, K. of H., held at Laurinburg, Monday evening, . June 28th, the following officers were elected for the ensuing term: J. A. Falslead, D.; J. G.

PPchiBg campaign, and appoint committees to meet with tbe County Ex ecutive Committee- on Thursday, tho 8tb inst, in this city, to arrange for a ratifica tion meeting to be held in Ibis city shortly. Let every Democrat in the county attend these ward and township meetings, and let us give the State and National tickets a good send-off with a rousing ratification meeting that will stir up the boys and in fuse life and spirit into the campaign in the Cape Fear District. Safe In the Asylum. A postal from Dr. W. N. Baird an nounces the safe arrival of the unfortunate lunatic, Peter Silverthorn, at tbe asylum in Morris Plains, New Jersey, on Tuesday. He was quiet until the afterpoon, when he became worse, but was controlled until their anival at Washington, when chloral had to be administered; and on arrival at Jersey City assistance had to be procured anu iorcc useu uotn me asylum was j t . reached. We hope to hear aoon tbat the unfortunate young man has been restored to bis right mind, as ii is thought possibly tbat proper medical treatment may in time effect such a result. - Family Uxcurilon on the Ciftb.
