"She chose a fellow with okin and hair." Please insert light before skin and you will read it an we wrote It. When John McCulloagh returns he is to have "a rousing reception." What foi? He did not make half the reputation that Edwin Booth did, and there has been nothing said of giv ing him a ronser. On Monday and Tuesday there was great improvement in the weather. Yesterday about 1 was tbe highest in this office. Vennor hit the weather exactly on the head. He foretold a pleasant change on tbe 15lh and it came. The people ot Terry, Ala., have regard for decency and the "fitness of things." They drove out of town one Clemen?, who married a second wife three days after the death of his first. There ought to be a law for just sash cases. There is great exoitement in New Haven over the murder of pietty Jennie Cramer. A woman named Annie Clements alia Blanche Doug las is under arrest. It is believed she was seduced and murdered by fames Mallay. Senator Ben Hill is well enough with his month to "make a few re marks" on the occasion of a serenade at one of tbe Virginia Springs. Poli tics were his theme. We hope Ben will live long and give Radicalism many heavy digs yet. Rev. S. F. Flegler, colored, who went to Liberia on the Azorj is, back in Charleston.

The news- from ' Washington is more encouraging than vtw ,waa: the night before. The President ia thought by hi physicians to" be slightly better. - The Cabinet held a.n unofficial meeting and had Dr. Bliss before ihera. Ie appears .to have reassured them somewhat. The Dbetor givea.il as htaopWion that the President has more than ahven chance of recovery,. an4 the Doctor is hopeful. There is very great anxiety and positive alarm in Washington, and especially around and in the White House. Many evi dently have but little hope. Mrs. Garfield U hopeful. Thsre is great gloom pervading Washiugton, and tbe condition of the President is most critical. Uisdeath need not surprise any one, although there is a chance for recovery. Thi appears to be a fair summary of reports and impres sions of yesterday in Washington. North Carolinians take an interest in the memory of Stephen A, Doug las. He married a woman of this Stale. He spent a good deal of his vacation time in Rockingham oounty where his wife had valuable posses sions. He was a true Jefferaonian Democrat. A beautiful monument has been erected to his memory at Chicago. The Chicago Inter- Ocean says of it: "With the exception of the Lin coln monument at Springfield, and the Washington monument at Rich mond, Va., there is not' a mora pre tentious piece of monumental work in the country. Mr. Leonard W. Volk, tbe sculptor, is widely knoWn, and takes rank with our best Ameri can sculptors." It cost $71,500. We again copy from the Chicago paper: "Within the tomb chamber repose the remains of Douglas, in an iron casket placed in a white marble sar cophagus, the marble from his native country of Rutland, Vk, and sur mounted by a white marble life-size bust of him. Tbe following inscrip tions are on the front side of the sarcophagus: " 'Stephen A. Douglas Born April 23, 1813. Died Jane 3, 1861.' "Tell my children to obey the laws and uphold the Constitution. Tbe bronzs statuary consists of Douglas on tbe top, 9 feet 0 inohes high, standing in repose, holding a scroll in the left hand and tbe right thrust nnder the lapel of his tightly buttoned undercoat. The four pe destals at the. base of the tomb are occupied by heroio-slzastatues of Illinois, History, Justice, . and Elo quence, in sitting attitudes.'' We . notice a dispatoh in the Charleston New a and Courier dated Tuesday morning 10th, which looks as if the Doctors at that time had about given op all hope. It is brief and reads as follows : "Dr. Agnew has informed Mrs. Garfield that she must prepare for the worst." Dr. Reyburo, not long befpre this, said to a reporter who asked, "Will the Presideut die to-night?" (Tuesday) " 'Oh I I can't say that,' exclaimed the Doctor quickly. 'It is not likely, but I cannot say.'" Say what you will of Gambetta he does not lack either boldness or con sistency. On Saturday last in his speech at Menilmontant he declared that the army and magistracy ought to be reformed, and tbat if he were at the bead of affairs he would do it. He considers the Government both imbicile and corrupt. Tbe eloquent and bold Frenchman haa. somehow lost much of popular favor. Dr. Agnew publishes a card in the Timea saying that he did not accuse that paper of fabricating or a medi cal gentleman of misrepresenting in tentionally. The point he makes: "It is very easy, even for a medical man, in reporting an informal con versation on a professional subject, to omit technical exactitudes, especially where anatomioal questions are con cerned, and thns materially change tbe true thought of the informant.' According to the Raleigh Ifev$ Observer here is the way the offioials in the Capitol voted : "Governor Jarvis and School Su perintendent Scarborough voted for prohibition, and Secretary-of State Saunders, Attorney General Keenan and Auditor Roberts against it. Treasurer Worth is opposed to k, but was prevented from voting by illness." South Carolina has chartered a steamer to take the military and in vited guests to Yorktown. Price to be paid $2,000.

Harry Skinner, Esq., of Qreenville,has been made aid to the Governor, with the rank of colonel. Ia the Sast a very large ma jority of Democrats voted sgainst prohibi tion. Reidsville Weekly: On Mon day night, about two or three o'clock, a negro man, said to be named Bcott, entered the office of Mr. J. N. Watt, where the latter was sleeping, and succeeded in carry ing oJI his clothing, rifled the wardrobe, and returned to get a trunk, we suppose for the purpose ot securing the clothing, and while just ia the aet ot putting the trunk out at the window llr. Watt was aroused and barely in time to seize the burglar. After a desperate effort, in a hand to hand struggle, Mr. Watt succeeded in capturing the negro and turned him over to the police. Tbe negro claims to have come from Dan ville, and is said to be a great rascal. Oxford Free Lance: Still peo ple are coming to our town every day prospecting, and dwelling houses are in demand. Msny are being built, but they will not prove sufficient. The Orphan Friend and Oxonian have consolidated, and will hereafter appear as a forty-eight page monthly under the name of the Oxford Educational Monthly. It is in tbe joint charge of Messrs. J. C.

The grain trade of New Berne is largely on the increase. The shipments by rail during the past year were larger than have ever been known in tho history ot the place. One of the pressing commercial needs ot New Berne is a steamer on the lower Neuse. The steam transportation lines plying here are all in a flourishing condition. -There are more evidences of thrift and general improvement in the city than at any time within tbe past fifteen years. The production of upland rice amounts to an agricultural revolution in some sec- i tiocs of the country contiguous to New Berae. The capacity of the factory of Mills & Walker, tobacco manufacturers, is 120,000 pounds per year; they employ from 80 to 85 hands; tbe presses are worked by a hydraulic pump of 600 ton power. The Messrs. Mallett, at their place, River dale, a few miles below tbe city, have their fibre works now in operation, and will give employment to a large number of hands three or four hundred, we have heard it estimated. The works convert pine straw into a fibre, of which mattresses, pillows and such articles are made. Charlotte Observer: The At lanta Constitution states tbat the Warm Springs in Madison county, in this State, have been sold to Col. Bethel, of Memphis, Teoa., and CoL Clisby, of Montgomery, Alabama, for $100,000. Col. Bethel was formerly of Rockingham county, in this State, but moved to Memphis years ago, where he has since become a leading citi zen and a man of princely fortune. A rain is chronicled in all the neighborhood papers now as something "to thank God on." At the corner hardware store yesterday the thermometer registered 106 in the shade at one time during the day. It is stated however that it was the latest and most improved patent thermometer, and they come a little higher than the common ones which can't get up over 98. Two county millers were in the city yesterday negotiating for machinery for the erection of wheat mills. Another result of the dry weather.

It was classed as strict low middling, was con signed to Mr. E. Lilly, weighed 536 pounds and was sold for 121 Cents per pound. o-a-o An apt Krjalader. A friend of ours was somewhat startled from bis usual well-defined equilibrium, a few days since, by an apt quotation made by his little daughter. He had been romp- ing with the little girl. and her baby sister, when the former used an expression which the father thought savored a very little of impertinence, and he took occasion to ad minister a gentle reproof, while at the same time, to show that he was not overstepping the bounds of propriety in condescending to put himself asj it were on an equality with the little ones, he called her attention to the tcripturaljssying, tbat unless a per son shall become as a little child he shall in no wise enter Into the kingdom of Heaven. The little bne instantly replied, "Yes, but ps, you know St. Paul says "When I was a child I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I be came a man I put away childish things." Blaslairate'a Court. Alex. Brantley, colored, was arraigned before Justice Millis, yesterday morning, on the charge of committing assault and battery upon Mary Sellars, also colored. Defendant was adjudged guilty, the evi dence being all one way, and was required to pay one .dollar and the coals. The same defendant was next arraigned on a peace warrant sworn out by Mary Sel lars, which charged that be had repeatedly threatened to kill : her, whereby she was afraid to venture upon the streets. He was required to pay the costs and give bond, with good security, in the sum of $50 to keep the peace for ninety days. The same defendant was further charged with committing assault and battery upon one Agnes Richardson, colored, and in this case judgment was - suspended upon the payment of costs. "Good Weatner far Tonne stacks." A gentleman of this city tells us that he had a duck that came off her.nest on Tues day of last week with seven young duck lings, leaving three uhhatched eggs. On the Thursday following he was out in his back yard looking after the young brood when he heard off to itself the cry of ano ther little duck, and, upon investigation, found that two of the eggs left in the nest, on Tuesday had since been hatched, though one of the little ducks was dead. The "second instalment" did not display the same gentleness manifested by the oth ers, and, in fact, hastened to get out of tbe way when the gentleman approached! It is supposed that the hatching was effected by the heat of the sun. A. IVaiaanee.

New York Baptist Weekly. A SOCIAL STIR IN WEST CHESTER. Pa. The effect of chance is so curious that the facta con nected with other's success are read about with the greatest interest. The event agitating the Quaker Borough of West'. Chester. Pa., is the chase that f eU upon Mi. Jesse B Webb, one of the best known business men. the proprietor of a large Jewelry store on Gay street. He was fortunate enough to bold half of ticket No. 88,11, the capital prize in the drawing of The Louisiana State Lottery, held at New Orleans on July 18th, winning $15,000. He sent byimail in a registered letter one dollar, ad dressed to M. A. Dauphin, SIS Broadway, New York city. The next drawing takes place Sept. 13. ; A DOWN TOWN MERCHANT, haying passed several sleepless nights, disturbed by the agonies and cries of a sufferimr child, and becominir con vinced that Mrs. Wlnalow's Soothing Syrup was just the article needed, procured a supply for the child. On reaching home and acquainting his wife with what he had done, she refused to have it ad ministered to the child, as she was strongly in favor of Homoeopathy. That night the child passed in Buuenng, ana me parents wiuiout Bleep, Hemm ing heme the day following, the father found the baby still worse; and while contemplating another sleepless night the mother stepped from the room tO attend to some domestic dudes, and left the fa ther with the child. During her absence he admin istered a portion of the Soothing Syrup to the ba by, and said nothing. That night all .hands slept well, and the little fellow awoke In the morning bright and happy. The mother was delighted with the sudden and wonderful change, and although at first offended at the deception practiced upon her, has continued to use the Syrup, and Buffering cry. ing babies and sleepless nights have disappeared. A single trial of the Syrup never yet failed to re lieve the baby and overcome the preludlces of the mother. Sold by all Druggists. 85 cents a bottle NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. Wanted, GOOD.
