He is foreign bore, but hails from the United States, and was first sent out by Bennett. We hope he will live to complete all of his explorations. It eeems Tourgee has been to Cha tauqua Lake too. Senator Sessions, the boss briber of the New York Legislature, lives in that distrioL He is corrupt all over. Well, the carpet-bagger made a fpeech, and true to his character for veracity he de nied emphatically that the political life of the time was corrupt. This was too much for the crowd who knew Sessions and Tourgee, so a big laugh went up. It is evident that the Northern people have about lost hope of the recoveryof the President. It is now known that his condition is extremely critical and that he has but a poor chance in the battle for life. Bliss whistles to keep bis hope up, but the country ia about prepared to hear the worst. Such is the prospect as we write. Later intelligence may im part a more hopeful aspect, but we do not look now for hia recovery. JL HE VOL. XXVIII. NO. 133. The Irish Revolutionary Conven tion, in session in New York, has is sued an address that squarely de clares that British vessels must be de stroyed. It is to begin after Septem ber 1st. V hat will the United States Govenment do about this? Will this country be used for the purpose of manufacturing dynamite explosives to destroy the lives of innocent passen gers and the property of another peo ple ? The New York letter iu the Philadelphia ledger says of the mat ter: "The English steamship people ap pear to be the least -oonoerned in the matter. The general agent of the Cunard Line says that 'farther than exercising all possible oarein shipping freight 10 detect dynamite, the com pany were doing nothing with special reference to the threats. 'Three fourths of all the passengers and a large percentage of the. freight we carry, said the agent, 'are Americans, and belong to Americans; so that any successful attempt in the dynamite line would injure those whom the Irish claim to be their best friends. Of all the transatlantic hoes, there is but one under the Amerioan flag, one French and two or three German; the rest are all7 British. The dynamite talk, I am persuaded is only talk, and intended only to frighten the timid. Yon can say we apprehend no trouble from the Fenians after the 1st of September or any other time.' n Bat one vessel blown up will create a panic and people wilF be afraid of British ships for merchandize or travel. It is estimated that the Methodist Ecntninioal Conference soon to meet iu Londou will represent 4,000,000 actual membership and 18,000,000 who are Methodists in sentiment and association. This is wonderful. John Wesley, the illustrious founder of this' vast discipleehip, was born at Epworth in 1703. His father was Rev. Samuel Wesley, an Episcopal minister. His mother, a wise and devout woman, was Susannah Wesley. He died in London in 1791. He was au extraordinary man, endowed with tremendous energy and great administrative tal ents. He travelled 270,000 miles on horseback and preached 40,000 sermons. He was a scholar and a gentlemau. Not dead but ninety years his disciples oi every name cover the civilized globe and number as above. One of the great events of the eigh teenth century was the rise of Meth odism. The July number of the English Review contains an interest ing, and instructive paper on this great religious denomination. Bishop Beckwitb, of Ga., is a North Carolinian. He was born at Raleigh and went to school at Oxford. We played with him long ago. He is a marvellous reader. The beautiful Episcopal service in his hands be comes more beautiful and imposing still. He has good ability and he knows how to deliver a written dis course so as to fasoinate. A Balti more paper says of him : "The Right Rev. John W. .Beck witb, Bishop of Georgia, delivered a masterly sermon in the pavillion of the Atlantic Hotel, Ooean City, on Sunday evening, from the text: "Am I my brother's keeper?" The audi ence was large and intelligent." John Beckwitb, and Tom Skinner were not the two boys we would have named as containing in embryo an Episcopal Bishop and a Baptist divine (Bishop too according to their reading of the Scriptures). Bat so it turned out and useful men they have proved. Spirits Turpentine. Charlotte is still suffering from burglaries. We have received number 1 and number 5 of the Nsw Berne Commercial 2ew. Our friend of the Stateaville Landmark is informed that we never saw the poem referred to. In the Penitentiary, at Raleigh, North Carolina, are" 843 convicts, 65 of whom are white. There are 51 female convicts, only two of whom are white. The Raleigh Recorder: (Bap tist) reports 65 conversions at Hepzibah church, wherever it is; 50 at Sandy Plain church, Gaston couaty, and 9 at Bethel, Person county. Concord Register'. The ootton crop from Vbe Spring' place to Beatle'a Ford is reasonably good. The corn is all planted on the water courses and is a good crop. The brick are being made to build the new Lutheran church in this town. Raleigh Visitor-. The Grand Lodge of the Knights of Honor met in this city this morning and was largely attended by members from all portions of the State. It ia gratifying to be able to state that the order Is ia a most flourishing condition in all respects. Shelby Aurora: We are in formed that some eight or ten men, living north of this place, have agreed to report and prosecute every violation of law that Wilmington, occurs is their respective neighborhoods. The Shelby High School opened on the 8th Inst, ana, at this time, there are about 75 students enrolled .for the fall ses sion. . - New Berne Nut Shell: Our es teemed townsman, Mr. Henry T. Foscue, was found dead in bed Saturday morning. Great improvements are now going on at the railroad shops nnder the supervision of Master Machinist Manly. Two new tfars are now in coarse of construction, and the rolling stock is undergoing; thorough L repairs and Improvement. Raleigh News-Observer: The teacher a' institute for the colored teachers of Wake county, will be held for five days, beginning to-day. CapL Bugger will be in charge. Bishop Lyman,, who ws in jured by being thrown from his buggy near Wilkesboro, has improved very rapid ly, and leaves to-day for the west. He will begin his visitations next Sunday, August 28th, at Calvary Church. Raleigh Recorder: Rev. C. S. Farris, has received a call to the church in Hicksford, Ya., and will probably accept. A letter just received from Dr. Yatea Informs us that be has greatly improved, and is hard at work preacbiog and trans lating the gospel. LRev. Dr. Yatea, a native of Wake county, has been missionary to China for more than thirty years, and is re garded as the best in that vast country. For some time he has been in poor health. Stab-1 Carthage Gazette: A few days since a little daughter of Mr. Geo. Culber son, living about two miles from town, got into her hands a vial of creasote, and child like, put it to her nose and mouth, and by some means got a portion of it into her nose and down her throat. The little sufferer lingered until Monday last, when she died. A very interesting meeting has been going on at Centre Union Methodist hurch in this county. The result was twenty converts, while many others went away awakened to their souls' condition. A large, high tree, which must be 160 or 170 years old, stands about 75 yards from the residence of Gen. R. A. McLaughlin, of this vicinity, and marks the corner between Gen. McLaughlin, Dr. J. J. Mott and Col. Julian Allen. It is called for in a grant made by Lord Gran ville.to Robert Simonton in 1754, and is spoken of in the grant as having the letters "R. 8." cut on the south side. StetesviUe Landmark. It is interesting to know that the tree nnder which the English Barons met at Runnymede, on the Thames river, between Windsor and Staines, near Lon don, lis still standing. This was A. D. lSlS'-eCO years ago. New Berne Commercial News: The managers of the Midland Road say they are determined to restore the business of the Atlantic Road and to augment and multiply it. They are reducing freight and passenger tarriff, and are going to offer every inducement for the business of the interior to find an outlet through the ports of New Berue and Beaufort. Capt. Wm. Cain, of the Midland Engineers, found between Salisbury and Pittsboro the finest water power be has yet explored in the State. He thinks it strange that the Yadkin River has been so long negtected by the S.dte, capitalists and manufacturers. Corn sold in our market yesterday at 63 cents, the cargo, scarce and in good de mand. Hillsboro Observer: Miss Eliza beth Bingham, eldest daughter of Andrew and Helen Mickle, died at the residence of her father, in Chapel Hill, August 4, 1831. Last Saturday night lightning struck and destroyed a stable belonging to Mrs. Jennie Garrard, a widow lady, living two miles south of Red Mountain. About $100 worth of oats, &c, were consumed. At New Bethel, Rev. J. O. Guthrie, the pastor in charge of the circuit, was assisted in the meeting by Rev. J. W. York, of Ox ford, and the result was twelve conversions and four accessions to the Methodist church. At the Walnut Grove meeting, the pastor was assisted by Revs. J. W. York, S. Y. Brown, of Leasburg, and T. A. Stone, of Chapel Hill, and the meeting resulted in twenty-five conversions, fourteen of whom joined the Methodist church. Charlotte Observer : Saturday evening last, in Union county, four miles west of Monroe.Key Secrest shot and almost instantly killed Wash Helms. He struck Secrest,and knocked him down, but either while falling or while getting up, (the wit nesses disagree), Secrest fired. The ball struck Helms just above the heart and ranged upward. He struggled toward Secrest struck him several blows and then fell. He died within three minutes after he was shot Helena's wife, it is said had hold of him, trying to get him away, when the fatal shot was fired. Secrest made no attempt to escape, but delivered himself np to the authorities. He is now in jail in Monroe. He is a brother of Hoke Secrest, whose trial two years ago for the murder of his wife and acquittal on the plea of insanity will be remembered. He bears a very good character in Union. Toisnot Home: We learn that twenty-eight persons were baptized at Rackley's mill last Sunday. Benjamin Lindsay, of Cooper's township, Nash county, split his leg open just below the knee, while cutting with an axe, on Mon day last. Almost the entire edge of tbe axe was buried in the flesh and bone, in flicting quite a painful wound. The revival at Rackley's mill, in Nash county, to which we referred last week, is still in progress, and we learn that forty odd have connected themselves with the church since the meeting commenced. Castalia (Nash county) items: Simon High, colored, of this place, whipped his wife most un mercifully on last Monday morning. He used his teeth on her to such an extent that she has not been able to do any work since. Mr. William Rich and one of the road hands by the name of George Strickland, had a fight near here last week, while working the road. J Strickland' struck Rich several blows over the head. New Bern.e Nut Shell: Satur day afternoon, about four o'clock, one of the boilers in Mr. Daniel Stimson's steam saw mill exploded, causing death and de struction and creating considerable excite ment in our city. Peter Blount, a colored man about 85 years of age, was at work in the log pond, when a portion of the debris which was flying through the air, struck him on tbe back of tbe head and breaking his skull, no doubt killed him in stantly. He fell into the pond. Our young townsman, Mr. John Lucas, a lum ber clerk, was standing near the saw in the mill and was dangerously scalded all over the back and arms, and on his ears and nose, by hot water from tbe bnrsted boiler. Isaac Crawford, colored, tbe engineer and fireman, was in the engine room and the scalding water terribly burned almost every portion of his body, face and limbs. At this writing he is in a very critical condi tion, but it is hoped there is some chance for his recovery. Mr. Sydham was badly hurt. Others slightly hurt. , Statesville American: We learn that Mr. John Lowry, of Davie coun ty, who was driving a two-horse wagon to County Line, where be bad purchased a n. c. Thursday, lot, with his little son last week, happening to drop bis lines, and reaching down for them, the team became frightened and ran, when Mr. Lowry fell over, breaking his neck and arm. The child escaped unhurt. During tbe thunder storm on Saturday evening last, about 3 o'clock, the lightning struck the barns of Messrs. Samuel Wilson and William Johnson, in Sharpeeburg Township, and both were destroyed, to gether with their contents, the stock within alone being saved. At the same time Wm. Ellis had a fine cow killed. During tbe same storm, at Bennett's store, near ML Pisgab, the stepping-block in front of the store was struck and torn to pieces, and Messrs. Bennett and William Lackey, who were standing in the store, were stunned by the stroke, Mr. Lackey being thrown to the floor and badly burned upon the back, tbe skin from which is coming off. -TlZtt CITY. new AaivBfet-a-istcinitN'rr..

There were no cases for the Mayor's Court yesterday morning. There are indications of a large fire raging in the woods over in Bruns wick. The Steam Fire Engine Com pany No. 3, received a pair of new wheels for their engine, by the laat New York steamer. Rev. Dr. E. A. Yates, of the Front Street M. E- Church, who has been on a visit.to the eastern part of the State, has returned. The Swedish barquentine Helene was cleared from this port for Hamburg, yesterday, by Messrr. Alex Spiunt&Soo, with 1,237 casks of spirits turpentine. ; The case against a party for illegal arrest, alluded to in our last, was dis missed by Justice Gardner, yesterday morn iogitPU the payment of one penny and the costs. That, was an audience fit for an Opera House at Pine Grovj Tuesday night. Besides the crowd from this city, nearly every resident of Wrigbtsville Sound was present, each family being largely rep resented. A gentleman who arrived here from Hendersonville, yesterday, says the crops in that section are very badly da maged by drought and the water courses have all dried up, so that stock are suffer ing for water. Gen. R. E. Colston, of the Con federate army, later of the Egyptian mili tary service, and formerly residing in this city, has recently accepted the position of commandant of cadets and instructor in tactics in the New York Military Academy at Fort Washington-on-the-Hudson. Venoor's forecast for the lattee part or August is as follows: 25th and 26th, heavy alorms on the lakes, on the 8t. Law rence and around New York; 27th and29tb, cooler weather, with rains and . frosts in the northern section; 80th and 31st, fair and pleasant weather, with cool evenings and nights, with indications of returning heat. Vlre as Lnmberlon. When the train on the Carolina Central road passed Lumberton'yesterday morning, about 5 o'clock, a fire was raging in the neighborhood of the depot, which was fouad to have consumed the still and fix tures of MeBsrs. Berry Godwin & Co., (the Co. being Mr. J. McD. French, formerly of this city), together with their stock of rosin, crude turpentine and spirits turpentine, a valuable engine, a ware house containing heavy groceriessuch as corn, bacon, flour, etc., and five or six guano houses. The fire, which was under control when the train passed, broke out about 4 o'clock, and was the work of an incendiary, fife having been set to the property in three different places. Messrs. Goodwin & Co. could not cor rectly estimate their loss at the time, but it is supposed that it will range from $3,600 to $5,000, upon which there was no insu rance. Their store, which was some dis tance from the other buildings, and 'was insured, was not destroyed. Look Ont far a Storm. A telegram from the Chief Bignal Office at Washington, dated at 9 A M. yesterday, and addressed to "All Observers at Sea coast Stations," states that it is reported to the Chief Signal Officer that a hurricane was central Tuesday night a short distance northwest of St. Thomas, West Indies, with maximum hourly wind velocity of sixty miles, the wind backing from northwest to southwest. One vessel was blown ashore. The information given is not sufficient to determine the path of the storm, but the centre will probably move northwest, and, unless it recuivea to the southwest, it will reach the Atlantic coast. While storm signals will not be displayed at present the Chief Signal Officer con siders it advisable to send special warning to all Atlantic ports and caution shipping against possible danger for tbe next two or three days from this hurricane.

Paper from Pine Straw. The Columbia Register mentions tbe fact that the Bath Mills, of Aiken county, in that State, furnishes it with specimens of paper made out of pine straw. One specie men is a thick board paper of the thickness of possibly a sixteenth of an inch, having a sort of plaited fibre; the other is an excel lent paper which can be furnished by the mill at three-fourths of a cent cheaper per pound than the same class of paper is sold for in New York. The mill is now manu facturing two hundred-reams per day. The Register adds : "Of eouree we have no knowledge of ithe cost of reducing this pine straw to pulp, but with the vast pine forests of the South carpeted with this straw, they would seem to afford an illimitable supply of raw material." Large quantities of pine straw in its crude state have been brought to this city for the past two or three years for shipment to the North, where it is used in the manu facture of mattresses and for various other purposes, after undergoing certain pro cesses, by the first of which a kind of oil is extracted from it. The straw in question is becoming a valuable article in the commerce of the South, and the large amount of it in this section will no doubt be soon utilized in the same manner as above, as it is very likely that one or more paper mills will be established in Wilmington or its vicinity at an early day, to manufacture paper from wood and straw pulp. Railroads in Prospective. Our friends in the Eastern counties are seeking a better market for their produc tions, and very naturally their eyes turn in the direction of Wilmington, where they have reason to expect to find a ready sale and the best of prices for their corn and other produce. That they are in earnest is evidenced byjextracta from papers in that section. The Washington Press of a few days ago, under the head of "What Wash ington Needs," says: "A railroad from this place to some point on the Wilmington A Weldon road would make this a fine corn market; it would help us and our Hyde county friends and pay the stockholders. Can't we have it?" And following right on the heels of this comes the Greenville Express with this pa ragraph, under the head of "Good": "The Wilmington & Weldon Railroad is prospect ing along the line of tbe river with a view of constructing a railroad to transport corn to Wilmington, one of the best grain mar kets in the South. Go ahead I We've got the corn and will help build the road to take it to market." Cotton and Corn. A gentleman of this city, who has just returned from a business trip by private conveyance through Brunswick and Co lumbus counties, in this State, and Horry county, in South Carolina, informs us that the cotton crop in those eountie is badly damaged by the drought, and that the yield in the sandy lands will, in all proba bility, fall short fully fifty percent. In some few instances, in fact, there will not be one-fifth of a orop made. In the stiller lands, however, the damage has not been so serious. The corn crop, though da maged to some extent, he thinks will come fully up to the average. Alarm of Fire. The alarm of fire yesterday morning, about a quarter of 11 o'clock, was caused by the burning of a hole about four feet square in the roof of a frame dwelling house on the northwest corner of Fifth and Castle streets, occupied by a colored woman named Eliza Lucas. The fire, which originated from a spark from the chimney, was put out by tbe neighbors before the engines reached the spot. The same house caught fire in the same way a few. weeks ago. Had a Good Time. The excursion on the steamer Postport yesterday, under the auspices of our Catbo- j lio ff iends, was well attended and intensely enjoyed. The boat went about five miles to sea, and those of the excursionists who ventured outside enjoyed a pleasant ride on the rolling billows. It was, in fact, one of the most delightful excursions of tbe sea son. m m m BURNETT'S COCOAINE A Lady's Haik Saved by ns Use Bnrnett's Cocoa ine will keep the hair in a strong and healthy condition by stimulating the roots of the hair and restoring the natural action upon which its growth depends.
