Two negroes were killed near Sa vitinah, Gi., on the 2 1st inst, iu lruuken rows. A sailor fell from a hqcond story window in the city and war killed. He was under the influ-e- en i.f liquor.

Scroggins, living two miles from Rome, discovered a monster rattlesnake curled op on her bed. Au uncomfortable bed-fellow that. Her husband killed "the var mint." lie was five feet, six inches in length with 13 rattles. That is enough to make a fellow dream of "dnaix" for a week. The Stab of yesterday printed four columns of telegraphic news, set in solid Brevier typ'e. If we had printed all we received for that issue it would have filled more thau five columns. This department of the Stak is not only much fuller, but contains much later news, than that of any other newspaper in North Carolina. The Northern papers are now re ferring to Leo Hartmann as a "pre tended fiend." That is very cruel. If this thing keeps on in "free Ameri can" Leo will be surrendering him self to the Czar the next thing the Ninilists will know. Hartmann's pictures resemble tbe real "fiend" Guiteau. They both have a very villaiuous, cut-throat, blow-you-up-in-a minute look. 1 An Internationnl Polar Conference has been held at St. Petersburg. The object of the conference is to make arrangements for the expeditions about to be equipped to investigate magnetic and meteorologio condi tions in the Arctic region?, and Rus sia, Denmark, France, Norway, Sweden, tbe Netherlands and Austria are represented. A great interest has been awakened in Europe concerning the Northern seas. J VOL. XX VIII. NO, 132. WILMINGTON, The negroes of Virginia have been organized completely iu Mahone' in terest. The campaign is waxing ol. The negroes can be always used by Radical leaders to Bubserve their ends. The. last sixteen yeara ahow that. They are m a greater bondage, politically, thau they were personally iu the day of slavery. Then they wduld sometimes disobey orders, get iuto trouble and run away. But now, when the . whip oracks the whole fall into line and then march aa ono man to the polls and vote as the bosses say. A letter from Richmond to the Philadelphia Times of the 20th lust., says of the situation: "Thopeoplenow understand pretty clearly whav they are to expect. The resuitjx)f tlye anal Kepubtican Con v eutibm held at Lynchburg-last . week haa decided the question of a Straight- be a straight one, conservative De mocrats auainst Mahone and his coa lition Repab)ican. The Democrats bave a crood cause and have splendid candidates in the field, which ought to abd, all other things being equal, nearly alwayB commands success. In tots tight, as in most other desperate political oon fliots, many other things are neces sary to secure victory. Without the most systematic organization no party can hope to win. The Demo crats recognfxa this and are making arrangements to have every county and town in the Commonwealth thoroughly canvassed, not by stump speakers alone, but in a way that counts for much more. Kvery neigh borhood will have us supervisor, whose duty it will be to canvass the strength of his party among his neighbor?, see that every man is re gistered and votes on the day of election. w O'Donnavan Rossa is still on the war-patb. He talks very fiercely. According to him the secret Irish Council in session in New York re solved unanimously on blowing up British ships in British ports. He is reported assaying in reference to tbe meeting : "This will be the last until you Khali hear of something that will s t artle not only England but -Europe. When that shall come to pass we may have occasion to hold a more impor tant session. 1 do not say this in tbe spirit of an idle boast, for I rather rtflect the opinions of our members from the West, who are far in ad vanco of me on the question of speedy and effective action, and who threatened, if an alliance were not consummated between the contend ing sections at this session, to establ ish a skirmishing organization, with headquarters at Chicago." Unofficial Bulletiu: There is no ma terial change in the condition of Dr. Bliss. He has talked 94 ounoes of nonsensical nourishment by the mouth o the attending newspaper reporters; and, taken altogether, his judgment and skill are no worse than on the day when Guiteau unfortunately shot the 'resident instead of Bliss. There are apprehensions that his swelling vanity may suppurate, but as this complica tion afflicts him all over the doctors are making no effort to scatter it. He will probably be Blisstered as soon as he gets through with his morning dressing. A, this hour his egotism is 110; Blissful ignorance, 93; Cundu rango, 18. spirits Turpentine. A large majority of the visitors at Buffalo Springs are North Carolinians. The Fall session of the Univer sity of North Carolina wjll begin on the 25' h inat.

"Stonewall" Jackson noticed a battery of the enemy, stationed on a conspicuous bill, doing considerable damage to bis men. Buddenly turning and ridine rapidly up to where Cob , with his floe regiment stood, he said: "Col do you see that battery of the Fede- ralsf nointine to it. "Yes, sir," replied theColoasl. "Occupy it," said Jackson; aod in five minutes the Colonel and bis men bad "occupied" the same. North Carolina furnished to the armies of the Confederacy no less than eighty-two regiments, ten battalions, and fourteen unattached companies, numbering altogether 122,000 men, being more in num ber than those furnished by any other State. Not only more in proportion to pop ulation, but more, absolutely, than any other plate in the Confederacy. Gov. Varice s Ad dress at New Berne.

Educational Journaltlhns refers to State Geologist Kerr's lectures at the University Normal School: "Many of the public lectures were sugges tive, entertaining and instructive. Con spicuous among them may be mentioned the lectures of Prof. Kerr upon Ueology or North Carolina. Those of Prof. Kerr were characterized by a lucidity of expression," and a clearness of arrangement, that re minds the writer of Huxley and Tyndall, both of whom he has heard lecture upon their favorite topics. New Berne Nut Shell: We no ticed Mr. Robert Mallett io town yesterday. He says they are daily turning out goods from the Clear Fibre Company's Factory. Col. Gardner. CapL Wm. Cain and Mr. Latta, the engineers of the Midland Railroad, surveying the road from Salis bury to Goldsboro, are now iu this city, giving a report of their respective surveys. This looks like business. We learn that they will begin tbe actual work early in September, by which time tbe surveys will be ready, and the contractors can go to work. The Atlanta Constitution, Sat urday, interviewed Mr. Peter M. Wilson, the secretary of our State Board of Agri culture, who is now on a visit to the "Gate City" for tbe purpose of making arrange ments to have the old North State repre sented at tbe exposition. That paper, of the 20th. says : Mr. Wilson comes for the purpose of preparing for the exhibit of North Carolina's resources at our coming exposition. He applied to Mr. Kimball yesterday for Bpace, stating that be would need at least 1,300 square feet, as an ex haustive display of the, State's resources would be made- Salisbury Watchman: The wavering ones during the contest are now strong . ati-pro's. The report that one of our citizens got wounded in a duel at Warm Springs turna out,to be false. 1 here waa no duel fought. Mr. Scarboro, State Superintendent of Education, deliv ered a very interesting address at Opera Hall, Thursday night last, on the subject of Education. He was listened to with marked attention, and most, we think, have im pressed bis andience with the priceless value of education as the great means by which the State is to attain and bold a re spectable position In the family of Slates. Statesville Landmark: The aw ful majesty of tbe law was vindicated Tuesday, when a little darkey, about ten years old, and wba might be wrapped up in a newspaper of this size, was arraigned, tried and convicted in the Superior Court of carrying a concealed deadly weapon. At that time, perhaps, one in every ten men in the court house bad a revolver in bis hip pocket. Alexander Moore. Sr., died at bis residence in Shilob township last Tuesday morning, In the 91st year of bis age. He came to this county from Cald well thirty years ago, and has resided here ever since. Mr. Moore was a soldier of the war of 1812, and was probably the last survivor of that war in this county. Oxford Free Lance: Capt. Wm. Biggs has purchased a large stock of sta- , tionery, and will open a first class book store. Some preliminary work is be ing done on the Granville Railroad. Col. Beasley, we are informed, expects to begin grading the road in a short time. We earn that even the corn on tbe low grounds of the Roanoke is being severely injured by the drought, and will fall far short of the usual yield- Granville draws largely upon this portion oi the .country ior us corn. This long-continuea arougni is becoming frightfnl. and our farmers are greatly depressed iu spirit. We have had Utle or no rain in tne last two montns, and the crops are suffering a great deal. Very little corn will be made in this county, and the tobacco, even should it rain soon, will be inferior to its usual fine quality, and only about two-thirds In quantity- The gardens around town are nearly burnt up, and vegetables are scarce. The Dem ocratic party has a clear majority in Dur ham county, and should have been victo rious at tbe recent election for county officers but the prohibition issue divided its strength und resulted in tbe defeat of its regular uominees. This is unfortunate, and should serve as a warning against tbe dangers of any further agitation of tbe prohibition question. TJHTJS CITY, If BW ADVBUTISKIUBNTC. Navassa Guako Co. For rent. S. G.
