No State has divided its electoral

The Towpath Club of Washington

The members of the T. C. have no
axes to grind. The are all on the
retired list of office decliners. They
couldn't be persuaded, not they.
Surely the Raleigh News-Observer
could not have read the column and
a half editorial in the Stab concern
ing "Longevity," or it would not
have written that paragraph about
uur views as to old age. We do not
believe in such unmitigated tom
foolery, and the Raleigh paper wiU
ulease lake due notice.
Gen. Conway, negro persuader and
philanthropic enticer, says there are
100,000 negroes in the South "or
ganized in bands and having money
to buy lands with." This talk is pre
liminary to carrying negroes to the
NorthweBtto starve and freeze. Let
them remember Liberia and Kansas
and "look before they leap."
No less than four of the present
Civil Service Stamp Speaking Cabi
net are anxious to be continued in
office under Garfield. They are
Evarts, tho long-winded; Thompson,
with a "p;" Schurz, who shifts his
sails to catch the breeze, and May
nard, the Southern man with North
ern principles. We hope the last one
of them will be bounced.
Gen. Walker thinks there is no
reason why Ihe present Congress
may not settle the question of ap
portionment. In any event, whether
the present basis, 131,000 inhabi
tants, be retained or be increased,
that New England will lose and the
South will gain. But the Radicals
will do their best to prevent an ap
portionment before the next Congress
assembles.
A lively movement is on foot, we
are very glad to note, in New York
against the "Passion Play" in that
city. It is an outrage wherever per
formed. The idea of an actor at
tempting to personate the Lord
Jesus Christ is simply revolting and
horrible. The fellow over in Ger
many who represented the Saviour
was addicted to lager beer and not
iu homeopathic doses.

Washington Fressi We regret
to learn of tho destruction by fire, on
Wednesday afternoon, 11th inst., at about
1 o'clock, of the gin house, cotton gin and
press of Mr. Richard D. Hodges, who re
sides on the Williamston road, about four
miles from town, besides nine bales of cot
ton and several thousand bushels of seed
cotton belonging to other parties.
Salem Tress: It it reported
that two small sacks of counterfeit halves
and quarter dollars were found in the road
near town recently. The epizooty
prevails to a great extent around Salem; a
teaspoonful of ground mustard mixed with
the horse's feed cure it- Last Friday,
Mr. Benbow, of Oak Ridge, Guilford

them.
Raleigh News- Observer : Mr.
W. R. Crawford's horse ran away with his
buggy yesterday, up Fayetteville Btreet.
Mr. W. R. Crawford, Jr., was run over
and hurt in the leg, arm and side, lie was
taken home. The cotton receipts this
season, up to Friday, were 40,138 bales, as
against only 20,147 bales for the same pe
riod last season. This gives the market
the large increase of 13,991 bales. The
receipts to the same time in 1878 were 23,
009 bales.

in cavities in quaruite as a coarse, loose
powder of rounded wax-like grains, and
was the result of the decomposition of
pyrite. It was also stated that rutile oc
curred in Alexander county, North Caro
lina, a new locality.
Washington Press: The grand
jury having examined the jail and poor
house reported as follows: The jail is well
kept, and in a cleanly condition. Prison
era well enred for. One of the cells needs
repairs. Found six inmates in thpoor
house, with food sufficient, but bes and
bedding very poor for comfort, the mat
trasses not well filled, and in dirty condi
tion. The building needs repairs, as sev
eral leaks were found in the roof, and
the porches are out of order. The rooms
of the colored department are dirty, and
the one in which the occupant died a short
time ago, found the bed still lying about
the floor, and it had not been aired or
washed since her death. The building was
in a filthy condition, and the keeper's at
tention was called to the fact.
Charlotte Observer : A postal
card from Lexington states that the dwell
ing of Mr. H. H. Caudle, of that place, was
destroyed by fire early yesterday morning,
with all its contents. There was no in
surance, and the owner's loss is estimated
at $1,000. Monroe's cotton receipts
up to Wednesday were 10,050 bales. The
largest receipts for any one day were 333.
There is a prospect of a telegraph line

as it would have been almost impojsible for
even three or four of them to have carried
the goods any distance. The cash drawer

of their new method will be determined.
The Knob Mining Company in Ashe
county recently declared a dividend ef 25
cents on the share. The stock consists of
150 shares, making a total dividend of
$37,500. This is the fifth dividend which
the company has made. Several par
ties from the North are in the city pros
pecting for the establishment of other re
duction works. T. T. McCord, of
Paw Creek, and W. J. Hinson, of the
same neighborhood, have not been on good
terms recently, on account of the fact, as
the story goes, that McCord made some
statements on the witness stand, not long
since, which were not very complimentary
to Hinson. Wednesday they met at Spur
rier's store. Hinson left the house soon
after McCord entered, and returning with
an old scrub brush in his hand, violently
assaulted McCord, cutting a deep gash in
his bead and otherwise injuring him.
Amos Gray, a colored employe of the
Atlantic, Tennessee & Ohio Railroad, met
with a terrible fate at Statesville night be
fore last. He went out on the little plat
form which surrounds the tender to uncou
ple the cars which were beiog shifted from
one track to another. When Engineer
Gruber next saw him his body was cut in
two and badly crushed beneath the engine.
No cry for help was heard, and no warning
given to the engineer. It is supposed that
when he reached down to draw the pin
bis foot slipped, he lost bis bold on the
tenderand fell directly under the wheels.

Wanted to Illuminate.
A party of about six or eight little colored
boys and girls were on tho search yester
day afternoon for the Radical Candle Depot
where they said candles were being given
out to those who wanted to illuminate their
houses in honor of Garfield's election. In
the course of their peregrinations they
called at the City Hall and wanted to know
if that was the place where they were to
obtain the necessary material to light up
the pathway of the Radical procession;
and, upon finding that they were in the
wrong pew there, they next went to the
Court House, where, entering the office of
the Judge of Probate, whowas bearing a
case, they stopped the argument of counsel
by the question, "day, mister, is you the
man what gives out do candles ?" "What
candles f" replied the Judge, startled from
his usual dignity. "Why, the candles
what you luminate with," answered the
spokesman of the party, a boy who carried
a large sack in which to take his Radical
illuminators. At this point they were hus
tled out of the Court room, and at last
accounts they were making their way in
the direction of tho Custom House, where
some one told them they could get all the
candles they wanted.
