Fanny Davenport appears in five

Speaker Randall says he will allow

If .the sketch of his life we read
lately is correct, he deserves to be
called "the greatest war correspond

wat immense something quite un
paralleled as far as we have read or
heard.
Hazen's appointment gives univers
al disaiisfaction. No one likes it but
Hayes and Hazen. It was a great
outrage. The Philadelphia Time
says:
"No account seems to have been
taken by the President of the con
ueded want of fitness of Gen. Hazen
for the task which is strange to him,
aud of a very delicate character in
itself. It has also revived some old
army scandals which are not at all
pleasant, and it will be necessary for
the Senate, when it comes to act
upon thia'appointment to do what
the Executive has inexcusably neg
lected and make rigid inquiry re
garding the character and qualifica
tions of Gen. Hazen."

VOL. XXVII.NO. 70.
The correspondent of the Phila
delphia Ledger writing from New
York ou the 10th inst., says that the
ousting of Kelly was the joint work
of Samuel J. Tilden and Roscoe
Coukling. He says :
"It is the most important event in
the line of municipal reform, per-
naps, since tne overtorow of 'boss'
Tweed, and outside of the Tammany
lines there is great rejoicing accord
ingly. The Aldermen met at noon.
in the midst of intense exoitement.
The gallery, was paoked with city
r 3
pvubiuiaus ui every graue, as like
wise were all the passages leading to
the Chamber. When Mayor Cooper's
nominations were received the lew
Aldermen who adhered to Kelly's
fortunes became intensely exoited.
Une of them. Mr. Shiels, declared
that $185,000 had" been distributed
among the members of the Board in
order to 'accomplish a corrupt con
spiracy,' etc. This .brought several
oi bis colleagues to their feet at
one and the same time to demand
explanations, but the end of it all
was the confirmation of the Mayors
nominees, seriatim.
Chickens are pretty sure to come
home to roost. Sooner or later the
unjust man or the unjust party will
be paid eff in the same coin it uses.
The following explains itself. We
copy from the Baltimore Sun's let
ter from Washington:
'The House Republicans over and over
again broke a quorum by refuting to vote.
The Senate Democrats can do the same
thing. If the Republicans, through the
aid of Mr. Mahone, obtain 83 votes, the
Democrats can oo every political question
refuse to vote, and thus there will be no
quorum, and the Vice l'resident cannot
have the opportunity to give the catting
vote. Democratic Senators say that if it
comes to a tie they will certainly take this
course unless an arraegement just and satis
factory to both sides is effected." -
On the strength of this let us
quote some lines:
"Time at last sett all things even,
And it we do but watch the hour,
There never yet was human power
Which could evade, if unforgiven,
The patient search and vigil long
Of those who treasure up a wrong."

Mr. S. J. Fell, Immigration
Agent representing North Carolina in
England, writes to the Raleigh NevDt
Obtertei on the 26th ult. : "Oo the lllh of
December a ship sails which will bring to
North Carolina from thirty to forty souls,
all of the solid, practical, working farmer
clasp. Some from Lincolnshire, strong,
hardy, intelligent men and women, who
know how to work, and know also a good
deal of the refinements of life. Some of
these, used to farm life, are just the sort to
develop the eastern section of the State,
and there is not one of the drinking, loaf

elsewhere, anywhere but the Old North
State?'

Falls had visited Mr. Mahew's bouse, where
the difflculty;occurred, and (while under the

him. We are also informed that Mr. Ma

Charlotte Observer: A tele
gram was received in the city yesterday
announcing the death in Raleigh of Mr.
George H. Rigler, formerly a well known
citizen of Charlotte. All of Mr. RIgler'a

Raleigh News Observer: The
loss by the late fire at Durham was $86,
000, and the insurance (48,500. The
cross-ties for the University Railroad have,
with the exception of 5,000, been received,
and are now on the track. The remaining
ones have been contracted for and will be
delivered in Jaouarv. The iron is to be
laid, it is understood, as soon as these other
ties are received. At 12.20 thU morn
ing the fire alarm was given, caused by the
burning of several stores at the corner of
Martin and Blount streets. The fire started
in Stanton's restaurant, it is supposed. It
burned that building, then Sam Parham'a
oar-room. Both of these were wooden,
one-story buildings. Next the two-story,
concrete walled stores of H. E. rarham
and. R. E. Parham, fronting on Blount
street. The burned buildings all belonged
to Mr. James M. Harris, and were valued
at $8,500. They were insured. Mr. Parham'a
stocK or dry goods. valued at S2.U0U was in
sured zor f 1,000. Mr. rarham's stocK
of general groceries and liquors was valued
at $2,000 and was insured for $1,000. Mr.
oam farham s stock of liauors. valued at
ai,wu, was nearly all destroyed. Mr.
Stanton's loss is not large. Dunston's bar
ber shop, connected with the restaurant,
was burned with it. On the morning
of the 11th inst.. at 6:80 o'clock, the
steamer Cotton Plant, valued at $7,000,
belonging to the Old Dominion Steamship
Company, was destroyed by fire while lying
at her wharf. The origin of the fire is un
known. Fully insured. She had on board
140 bales of cotton and some other articles
of merchandise, belonging to parties here,
all of which being insured. The State
on Friday concluded its testimony in the
case of Win. Parker, charged with the
murder of General Bryan Grimes. The
defence had examined a few witnesses
when one of the jurors was taken sick. The
Judge waited until after dinner, for an im
provement in the juror's condition, and
when informed by the physicians that it
would be impossible for the -juror to con
tinue on the trial, continued hte case until
the next term of Beaufort court, which will
be held next spring. The report of the
Richmond and Danville Railroad company
show that the earnings on the North Caroli
