Tha Home Rolen are not playing their cards skilfully, we think, in the House of Commons. They are doing what they can to force the Govern ment to resort to coercion.

The children were dispatched for the neighbors, who soon arrived and conveyed him on a long plank to tbe house, tilts recovery is aouot ful. Raleigh Visitor: It is rumored on the streets of this city that Mr. Geo. B. Everett, of WinstOD, will be appointed Revenue Collector in tbe 5th district in place of Dr. W. H. Wheeler. We notice Rev. W. G. Clements, of tbe Christ ian Church, in the city soliciting funds to build a house of worship for that denomi nation. This denomination has a very large membership in this and adjoining counties. . There are some of tbe best citi zens of this town connected with the Christ ian Church. Charlotte Observer: Another accident on the Richmond & Danville rail road, thirteen miles north of Greensboro, Saturday afternoon about 6.o'clock. En ginDeer McConnell was, it is feared, fatally scalded, and the fireman slightly so. The engine, a large threeswheel Mogul, rolled down an embankment, and eight fiat and three box cars were badly wrecked. The wrecked tramwas a south-bound freight, and was thrown off by what is known as a spread in the track. Should a minis ter of tbe Gospel be required to work tbe roads? Th a is a question that is agitating the North Carolina Legislature. Eden ion Clarion: Henry G. Skinner, on Greenfield farm, with 6 mules, made 86 bales of cotton, 450 barrels of corn, 30,000 pounds of fodder, and 'fatted 8.000 pounds of pork. A telegram from N.iolk, toW. D.

He was about 62 years of age, and had spent over 40 years of bis life in ibe ministry of the M. E. Church, South. Paul Cooper takes the premium a good suit of clothes offered by Mr. J. G.

In all he ran about 45 minutes, making near 0i miles. This he did without much appa rent fatigue, though a large muscular man, weighing, we suppose, 170 or 180 pounds. He walked probably one-third of tbe time towards the last He appeared not to be ia a strain or doing his best. Elizabeth City Falcon: Mr. C. W. Hollowell, one of our very best farm ers, can beat the world on Irish potatoes. From thirty acres of land be dug this sea son 1,800 barrels, part of which brought $4 50 per barrel. Putting in a second crop oo part of tbe same land, a thing quite ufiusual with our farmers, he realized therefrom 200 bushels of potatoes, which are excellent for seed, and bring from $2 to $2 50 per barrel. From tbe potatoes left in the ground at the second digging a volunteer crop sprang up, from which, since the recent freeze, Mr. Hollowell dug 40 bushels of frost bitten and 11 barrels of sound potatoes. Besides the above, ten bales of bay and a quantity of millet have been produced on this same land this sea son. The 80 acres netted him nearly $4,000.

Other buildings will be put up just as soon as tbe material can be had, brick being scarce. Within six months we ex pect that nice, substantial brick buildings will mark the spot where the fire-fiend held high carnival in Durham. Winston Leader: We are not running a junk-shop. We do not want patent medicines, brass watches, organs, pewter spoons, ' sleeve buttons and cheap jewelry in payment for advertising; so it is useless for the makers of these articles to send us propositions. We want the money, and the money we must'have for their ad vertisements. '.

The remains of tbe unfortunate gen tleman reached here on 'the 3.23 Carolina Central train yesterday afternoon.in charge of Rev. C. M: Payne, Mr. Celville and others. They were met at the depot by a delegation from Cape Fear L?dge No. 2, L 0.40. F., and Carolina Lodge No. 434, Knights of Honor, of which orders be was a member, and bywhom the body was es corted to the residence of Mrs. Filyaw, his mother-in-law. Mr. Hill came here from London in 1866 or 1867, and held apposition for sometime with Messrs. E. Kidder & Sons, at their steam saw mills In this city. About the year 1871 he was engaged with Messrs. Bradley, Walker and others in the milling business in Savannah, Georgia, but returned to Wilmington after a year or two and soon commenced business with Mr. G. M. Altaffer, under the Arm name of Allaffer & Hill, in a sash and blind factory. He finally sold out bis interest in the business, a year or two ago and became part purchaser of the Cape- Fear Building Company's Works at Abbottsburg, where, under the firm name of W. E. Hill & Co., he has since been engaged in business. - Mr. Hill leaves a wife and one or two children and a brother and two sisters to mourn his untimely fate. He was an ener getic business man, and was highly esteemed by all who, enjoyed his acquaintance.

Oar late distinguished visitors, Geo. Im- boden and Mr. Hyndman, left for Raleigh yesterday morning. Their trip down the river was a very pleasant one. They visited Federal Point and examined the works there, expressing themselves astonished at what had been done towards effecting a closure at that point and securing a proper depth of water over our bar. They also steamed outside and witnessed the opera tions of the steam dredge Woodbury on tbe bar. Tbey then went to sea a short dis tance, after which the boat returned to Smithville, and our guests, with the gentle men accompanying them, visited the office of the Assistant Engineer, Mr. Bacon, where tbey examined tbe various plans and specifications for the improvement of the bar and river, at the conclusion of which the Woodbury returned to this city. Gen. Imboden and Mr. Hyndman were evidently very favorably impressed with what tbey bad seen, and were free in the expression of the opioion that our port pos sessed all the necessary facilities for becom ing in time a place of tbe first commercial importance, and fully adapted as the outlet for the large operations which they have in view io the northwestern portion of our State.
