Beware of Radical lies, Radical forgeries, Radical frauds. Watch ! JmV i IK Virginia do to bet on for Hancock ? What say the Dispatch, State and Danville Host. Tbe news from Indiana continues lo improve. The Democrats of that Stale are fall of hopeand are making a courageous fight We hope the Democratic business men of Wilmington will close their doors next Tuesday, and give one day ito the cause of their country. A correspondent of the New York MJerald (Garfield paper), writing from San Francisco, admits that California is a doubtful State, and that tbe contest will be very close. Good enough ! The Spanish scholar of the Rich mond State says the dead Indian got bis name from the Spanish and it was, therefore, Victoria. Thanks. We are rather rusty in Spanish hav ing never studied it. On the night of the 26th Generals McClellan and Sickles (one a Demo crat and the other a Republican) pa raded through the Btreets of New York at the head of 4,000 Hancock veterans. It wag an imposing sight. Meetings were held at Tammany and Irving Hall-, where Gens. McClellan, Sickles and Smith spoke. Gen. Siegel presided at tbe Irving Hall meeting1. Garfield as a speller. The Wash ington Post of the 27th says: "Now as to tbe internal evidence of tbe letter: The principal objection has been mde to the spelling. One prominent real estate broker in tbU city has letters of Mr. Ijarrteld'a in bis possession, written to him, a which Uie following brilliant spelling oc curs: Advertizeina'iodorfiment.' And the letters, some ball dozen in number, 'Ije not scrutinized very closely either. 'The following clause is a fair specimen or the grammar of the man who wrote companyg;' "It's stupid and brutal sentiments I never preaaed r entertained. 'Added to all thia U the fact that among JPea tte hu-gest quantity of arfleld! manuscript, in thia city, are ound the feweat to deny the letter." the noEnnro stab. r VOL. XXVII.--NO. 32. The Republicans will make a stu pendous effort to achieve success nextTvuerfday. The bread and batter army ofi04,000 were never so active. Their patriotism is measured by a feeling sense of grab. Their devo tion to principle is dependent upon the great question "how my custom shall be filled." The Radical State stealers and repeater-manipulators are moving on South Carolina. Read this from the Washington letter to the Baltimore Sun of the 26th inst.: "Intelligence reaches here from South Carolina that the Republican managers. acting under the advice and active assist ance of tbe central managers or the party, will make a desperate-effort to bring out the entire colored vote on Tuesday next In support of the Greenback: State ticket. The Kepuoiicans nave an electoral ticKet in ine field but no state ticket. A combination has been formed with the Greenbaekers which, if successful, will defeat both tbe Democratic State and electoral ticket, and in many of the counties the local ticket. That is it: Radicals and Green- backers. Did not tho Stab warn you long ago that the Greenback movement was only a Radical dodge. K. K. Kornegay and Kanaday? The Radicals are smart beyond all comparison. They leave no stone un turned. Their resources in dodges and rascality increase with the des peration of their condition. There is a law in New York which disquali fies a man from voting who makes a bet on the result. This leads the Na tional Conservative Republicans to warn the friends of Gen. Hancock against betting, and thoy Hay in their address: "It has been definitely ascertained that a systematic effort is being made on thejpart of Davenport and his men to lead friends of Hancock into small bets in favor of bis election. One dollar and five-dollar beta are being offered by inure representing themselves to be Kepublicans, but who, upon investigation, will be found not en titled to a vote for various reasons. Tbe Republican machine is paying more than 5 fur votes, and it is their object to em ploy irresponsible men to place as many of these small bets as possible. It is known that as high as 100 $1 bets have been se cured by these sharpers in one ward. The Paterson, N. J., Radical man- faciurers are at work trying to intimi date iheir employes. They are both threatening tbem with discharge if they vole for Hancock, and are telling' tbem all sorts of scary lies. The evi dence is conclusive. A special from Palson says: "In some of the mills tbe other night all the male bands, including tbe foreigners who have nut been naturalized, auu tbe boys under age, were obliged to turn out in a Republican piocesston. This is causing a good deal of dissatisfaction among the Democratic employees, who say they have to turn out and seem to be Republicans for fear that they will lose their work if they do not do so. Bui they say they will vote for Gen. Hancock nevertheless. Several Republicans have become incensed at the attempted bulldozing and are inclined to vote against ibe Republican ticket in con- si Cjuecce." Ainger, the Radical postmaster at Washington, was caught badly in his lying attempt to discredit the Morey letter. We have given the facts before. His statements, says the Baltimore Sun's special from Washington, "is disproved in tot by numerous envelopes in possession of parlies here, stamped with the Washington stamp at different pe riods from last January until the present time. It is shown by these that neither before nor since the 13th of April have tbe stamps used in the Washington office been uniform, but that there have been at least four different kinds of stamps employed. If you wish to see what sort of a fellow John Sherman is read the fol lowing from his epeeeh in New York last Saturday night : "Sometimes I bave thought in these later times that we ought to have hanged Jeff Davis to that sour apple tree. (Applause.) Tbe old apple tree should nave been orna mented' bv bia bod v. so that the son? could nave been maQe true, and John Brown's soul go marching on." If John had. his deserts he would be in tbe penitentiary breaking rock and with clipped , ears and striped shift. Much smaller rogues have broken' into that place. Mr. A. J. McUabe, of New Jersey sends a sworn certificate to the New York Sun wbidh : tells of 100 roughs who went to Florida on the steamer Western Texas that left New York October 1. He was a passenger. They said they were not going to work on any railroad as was given out. He saw tbem atterwaras at Jacksonville and. Fernandina. He gives other evidence, which fully confirms all Chairman Barnum has said. Colonel Forney has reduced the price of his elegantly punted paper, Progress, one-half. It is now served at $2.50 a year. It has a very large circulation and has given Hancock a most efficient support. MORNING H WILMINGTON, N. C, FRIDAY. OCTOBER 29. 1880. When Jewell tells the people that when he sent those tell-tale specials about the 350 repeaters he was only trying to head-off Democratic re peaters, he proves one of two things or both: first, that he is either a fool himself as well as corrupt, or that he takes the people of the United States to be fools. Garfield has denied the Morey letter three times since he was tele graphed to that Morey was dead, and still the people are no more con vinced that he tells the truth than when he swore about that $329. THE STATE CAMPAIGN. The report is in Scales' District that the Greenback candidate, Win ston, will vote for Garfield aud Bux ton. Yery likely. Col. Kenan returned yesterday from the west. He repotts the pros pects there as very bright and cheer ing. lialetgh. JSews and Observer. The .Democrats of this county are fully alive to work. Dr. Tom Moore, George Wilson and Mai.

He went to Icard to nil an appoint ment, but not even a yaller dog at- tended, and ne quit tne canvass in disgust. Morganton Blade. A private letter from a gentleman in Raleigh, who has closely studied the politics of the State for thirty years, says the Democratic majority in North Carolina next Tuesday will be larger than it has ever been at any previous election. Charlotte Ob- a. server. The speech of this distinguished son of the Old North State (Colonel D. K. McRae), last night at the The atre, was, like all of his efforts, bright as a Damasous blade. Logical in its construction, brilliant in its imagery, elegant and impressive in its phrase ology, and forcible in its delivery, it captivated his large and cultivated audfence, and held it as bv a magic BDell. Uolonel Mottae is wnat is usually culled a magnetic speaker. He has, what is first of all necessary ...... to a successful orator, pertinent and convicted thought. The logical formation underlies all his splendid passages, ne tnen possesses tne inn and descriptive language of the WW . . 1 P II scholar, combined with an impulsive, distinct manner, which flashes into the nerves of his audience like the fluid from a well-charged battery. ills effort last night will compare favorably with his ablest and most eloquent lectures and addresses of the past.

Laurinburg Enterprise: Prof. Robert Hards. Principal of the Colored Normal School in Fayetteville, died at his residence in that tows on Saturday night last. George, a son of Mrs. Kate Johnson, widow of the late Alex. Johnson, was instantly killed in Fayetteville last Saturday evening under very peculiar cir cumstances, which have been related to us as follows: A negro by tbe name of John Smith walked into the store of Mr. J. D. Cook, in an intoxicated condition, drew a pistol and without provocation, shot an old negro man who was in the store, the ball taking effect in the old negro's hand. Smith then fled, but was immediate ly pursued by a deputy sheriff and a posse of boys, among whom was George Johnson, all shouting "catch him I" "shoot him I" etc., and when on New street, in the j southern part of town, a negro living with Mr. C. B. McMillan ran out with a double barrel gun and shot into the crowd, the en lire load of nucksnot striking Johnson in the head tearing out tbe brains and killing bim instantly. The, negro then made his escape in the woods, but returned oh Sun day morning and surrendered himself. John Smith was stBl pursued by deputies Bvrd and McMillan, but at last accounts had not been overtaken.

It is a very unusual thing for a soft crab to be found in fresh water, but a genuine article was captured in Smith's Creek, near tbe Oakdale Cemetery bridge, a few day 8 ago. See to it that every voting pre cinct is fully supplied with tickets for all of our candidates on election day, and with the number of officers to be voted for, so that no ticket shall be left out.

The Chamber of Commerce of this city met in annual session yesterday, when tbe following officers were elected for the en suing year: President A. H. VanBokkelen. 1st Vice President E. Peschau. 2nd Vice President Donald MacRae. Secretary and Treasurer J. L. Cantwell. Executive Council Geo. Harriss, Jaa. H. Chadbourn, R. E. Heide, James Sprunt, W. L.

Chadbourn, George Harriss. Meteorological Committee A. H. Van- Bokkeleu, Wm. L. DeRosset, George Harriss. President Van Bokkelen submitted his report to the Chamber, which is as follows: president's eepokt. Gentlemen Qinco the last annual meet ing of this Chamber such business as came Within the line oi duty has been as fully considered ana actea upon as was possible for advancing the interests of commerce and this community. At the lime of the last annual meeting me important woik Deing aone ny the United States Government toward closing Xiew inlet ana increasing tne depth of water from the city to the ocean, was at a stage where a feeling of uncertainty as to its succe8siui completion was entertained by some persons. AH cause for such ap prehension has been fully removed the massive rock dam which closes New Inlet has been brought up to its proper height, the sea face of immense granite blocks has been laid, leaving only the capping to be done with similar material as the sea face to perfect the same. This dam has given full evidence of per manency, and will remain an enduring monument of the wisdom of those who projected this mode of effecting a closure. and the efficiency of the engineers and as sistants who planned, directed and exe cuted this great woik to its successful completion under the many difficulties at tending the same. The Carolina shoals have sufficiently in creased in height to render them bare of water, except at high tide, for a considera ble distance; at the same time Fort Fisher beach is rapidly extending towards the shoals, which will no doubt result in tbe formation of a beach from Fort Fisher point to the beach beyond, thereby creating tbe second barrier to New Inlet and break ing off from the rock dam the force of the ocean, which or. itseli it is capable oi enec tually resisting. The line of beach extending from New Inlet southwest to cape Fear has greatly increased in.width and strength. The only swash across the same, while slowly depre ciating, is by its counter currents gathering material ror us complete ana durable clo sure. Tbe operations of tbe steam dredge Moodbury in deepening Bald Head Chan nel have been attended with results beyond what was at first considered probable. When she commenced working, during the spring, of 1879, the depth of water waa re ported nine to ten feet at low tide she has been efficiently worked, only losing time when prevented working by too rough weather and la receiving necessary repairs. The soundings made during the moath of September past show thirteen feet three inches on inner ledge and nrteen feet six inches on outer ledge of bar at low tide. with greater depths between and beyond these two ledges. This increase in depth has been much greater in proportion during tbe latter pora tion of the time tne wooaoury nas been em ployed, caused by improvements brought about by those directing her operations; also by the increased scouring resulting from the greater volume of water passing through the enlarged passages with more rapid current. The intended dredging ox me river to Wilmington has been deferred in order that the early completion of the rock dam and continued operations of the Woodbury would be assured. To have bad the deep ening of the river keep pace with that of the bar mient nave oeen advantageous at the immediate time, but it would have re sulted in giving only the depth of water first provided for, while the (horottgh closure of New Inlet and the continued operations of the Woodbury on Bald Head channel have developed the practicability 6f pro- curing and maintaining such depth of water through Bald Head channel to tne ocean as will justify a depth of twenty feet at low watpr in the Cape Fear river from its en trance to the city of Wilmington. The depth of water in the nver at the present time is not sufficient for the passage of such class of steamers and sail vessels as are needed to do the business which will seek this outlet; this-alone retards the large increase of business which has been hoped for. and will Certainly be realized when the bar and river are both or. aumcienx capacity. At the next session oi uoneresa steps win betaken to have appropriations obtained ookm? to tne deeoenimr oi tne passaze from the ocean to Wilmington to twenty feet at low water. A special meeting or this Chamber will be called to arrange for brineine before Coneress the results al ready secured, and the practicability of obtaining the desired depth of twenty feet. The closure or new iniet naa proved some inconvenience to that class oi smau vessels from other parts of thiB State trad ine with Wilmington as used that passage. Such trade should oe retained; a survey of the sleusnear to Bald Head, over Frying Pan Shoals, should be made and buoyed out, so as to admit the use of the same by this class of vessels. I have learned that such survey was intended. Wilmington as a cotton port is steauuy advancing. The receipts from the present crop to this date are largely in excess of any previous year. Tbe facilities for com pressing and handling cotton with light expense would give this port equal, and, in some cases, additional advantages . with other ports, creating demand and drawing large quantities for sale and export as soon as our navigation is improved partially. With twenty feet, as desired, Wilmington wjllbeable to compete with any port for general business. A. H. VanBoxxelen, Pres'dt. Arrerea for Blcamr. A colored woman by the name of Mary Brown was arrested yesterday on the serious charge of bigamy, or being "too mueh married." She was ordered to give a justified bond in the sum of $100 for her appearance before J. C. Hill, J. P., on the 10th of November ensuing, in default of which she was committed to jail. TAR WHOLE NO. 4,121 meeting in tne FIrat War. Notwithstanding the numerous discom forts incident to attending an outdoor speaking last night, the crowd assembled at the corner of Fourth and Brunswick streets was quite large and equally as en thusiastic. The meeting waa first addressed by Mr. John C. James, who was to have addressed the Second Ward Club at the uourt House, but it waa decided to have the affair a joint one of tho two wards. Mr. James wai introduced very hand somely by Major John W. Dunham, and was greeted with much enthusiasm. II is speech wasone of great depth and thorough research and as instructive an address as we have heard this campaign. He was evidently perfectly familiar with all the questions he referred to, and the manner of arrangement and delivery Jof his arguments waa forceful and impressive. His ability aa a speaker is well known and recognized by our citizens, and notwithstanding tbe several disadvantages under which he la bored his speech last night mual greatly in crease his reputation. There was none of the claptrap of the politician about bis re maik), but every conclusion was reached by sound reasoning and every point told. As be neared a conclusion he was urged to continue, but declined, aad concluded with an assuring prophecy as to the result of tbe contest next Tuesday. & air. j a race retired loud calls were I . If.. T . made for Mr. Shackelford, and Mr. J. I. Macks arose and very gracefully introduced the gentleman as ibe next Cocgressman from the Third District of North Carolina. Mr. Shackelford was warmly received and spoke most efficiently and agreeably for about an hour. In the two speeches delivered here he has made u most favora ble impression both as a man and a speaker, and his labors have been of great seivice as tbe result will prove. We do not doubt but that he will hear a good report from New Hanover after the votes shall be counted on tbe 2d of November, and our people are to be congratulated on their representative. Mr. D. H. McLean, district elector, was also present by invitation, and when Mr. Shackelford's-speech was ended was appro priately introduced by Mr. Robert H. Mc Koy. Mr. McLean's speech was a fitting finale to the occasion and rounded up the work of the evening most acceptably. He has been heard with much pleasure each time he has spoken here during the can vass, and has most flatteringly established himself. Whenever he shall be with us in the future he can confidently expect a hearty welcome andarm reception . Dally Weatner Bulletin.

Bntlneii snepeueton on Tneeday-A Uood saararestlon. The suggestion of tbo speakers on Wednesday night Messrs. Shackelford and McLean that tbe stores and business houses should be closed on Tuesday next, and that everybody should give that on$ day to his party aad to hia country, is a food one, and we are glad to find that it meets the approval of several of our business men, who announce themselves willing and anx ious to carry out the suggestion, provided it meets with any degree of unanimity among our merchants and others. Such a course would no doubt result beneficially. as it would stimulate all to renewed and in creased exertions in behalf of our candi dates, constitutional liberty and good government. A "Devil Flett." A gentleman who was present at the Dem ocratic meeting at Macumber's Store a few days ago, says he was shown a genuine "Devil Fish," which was captured at; the Sound some time since. It waa in every way similar to the representations of lhe one (attached to Coup's circus, except that it was much smaller, being probably a a very young one. President Battle, at Chapel Hill, has been written to concerning . the strange specimen, and it will probably find its way to the Cabinet of Curiosities connected with the University. This is not the first "Devil Fish" that baa been caught on our coast. County Taxee (or 1880.
