The Columbia Register pays a

crop of 1880.

however, that tho latter is a fall esti

Lieutenant Commander Brown, of
the United States torpedo ram Alarm,
reports to the Navy Department that
the trials have been . satisfactory
entirely, and it has been demonstrated
that a vessel of considerable size can
be steered and propelled by a screw
alone, without a rudder, that it can
carry guns of tho largest size, whioh
oan be aimed with, precision and cer
tainty. He says the Alarm is the
most formidable vessel in our navy.
Mr. Tom Keogh, of Greensboro,
has just returned from Washington,
t WV ft
ana represents Dr. miss as saying
to him that'khe had not had any hope
of tho President's recovery in ton

while "the President lies fighting for

telegraphing his sufferings to stock
speculators to mako money out of his

Tb oolored men of New York are
beseiging Mayor Grace for an ap

Mayor is a Democrat and possibly he
may take a notion to appoint one or

that way.
iiThe greatest political disturbance
to whioh Philadelphia was ever snb
jeoted waa that given by Mayor
King, Democrat, when he appointed
a negro as a policeman. The Re
publicans of the "city of brotherly
love regard the Mayor as a disturber
of the peace.
It is said a large number of doctors
scattered throughout the country
believe that the President has been
suffering from an attack of malarial
fever. That opinion has not existed
among those of the White House.

Warren ton Gazette: A party of
United States surveyors was at the
hotel here last Sunday. "We under
stand they are making a survey of the
Roanoke, and report that the river
from above Clarksville down can be
made navigable, partly by canal.
Their report will be made to the next
Congress.
We greeted Mr. J. B. Hussey
when it was announced that he would
take control of the Greensboro JPa-
triot. The last number bears marks
all through of a practiced hand. Mr.
H. has talents, tact, industry, expe
rience aud ambition, and he will
make the Patriot better than it ever
was. Our best wishes attend him.
Raleigh Visitor: Mr. Edward
O'Daniel, residing near Mr. G. T.
Stronach's, in this county, was seri
ously, if ndtmortally, mjuxed by the
running away of a mule on Monday
afternoon last. In the forage
market yesterday fodder sold for
$1 40 per hundred, instead of $1 10,
as stated in yesterday's issue; fodder
brought $1 50 to-day; hay from 40
to 60 cents, as to quality; oats 80 to
90 cents; straw 40 to 50 cents.
Statesville American; The
farmer will act wisely who will put
in a full seeding of Winter oats -and
wheat for the next crop. Oats should
be put in from this time to the mid
dle of September, earlier the better,
and wheat in due time. By all means
plow the ground well and harrow
fine, and then sow with a drill for
wheat, if possible. We regret
to announce the death of Rev. Alfred
Carson, of Taylorsville, which sad
event occurred at his residence, at 10
o'clock, Thursday night of last week.
Greensboro Patriot: Capital. 1
labor and education is what North
Carolina most needs. A gentle
man who has travelled through partB
of Forsyth and Yadkin counties says
that in the East Bend, Winston and
Flint Hill sections the corn crop is
almost a complete failure. A good
wheat crop has been harvested.
The title to the Conrad Hill gold
mine known, here as the Old More
head mine is in dispute. Mr. J. F.
McKee, the manager of tbe company
now operating the mine, makes a
spirited defense of his title. He as
serts a fee simple. The mine is be
ing developed and proves to be very
valuable property. The Mt.
Pleasant Manufacturing Company,
composed of solid and enterprising
business men, oommenoed operations
on the lth inst. The factory is lo
cated at Mt Pleasant, in this county,
and supplied with the best and latest
improved machinery. The enter
prise has abundant capital behind it,
and I promises to be successtui ana
profitable. Only warps are manu
factured at present.
Raleigh Farmer and Mechanic:
We are pleased to learn that Dr.
Carmer. formerly of Raleigh, now of
Norfolk, is doing very well with his
Granville county "(Jdenneimer
Sauce," which is being sold in large
quantities. Gen. Clingman thinks
Garfield should call Vice President
Arthur to his bedside and delegate
to him the powers of President. It
would be a bad precedent to set.
The time might come when a Presi
dent would dodge his duty by going
off and leaving the V. P. in charge.
The- collections from the street
boxes are no longer made twioe dai

about 9 A. M., in time for the North"
era mail on the Raleigh 6s Gaston
Railroad. The carrier is a colored

remove the old darkey who was doing
it? Now, we happen to know that
the very considerable sum of f 550
has been added to the pay of the xta
leigh postoffice within a short time
past, to insure better accommoda
tions for the publio; yet they are less
than before? When Gov. Holden
went to see Garfield he was met by
the complaint that he did not employ
negro clerks. Holden replied that he
had a full corps of clerks, but if he
had more pay he could very well em
ploy another. Garfield at once or
dered an additional allotment of $550
a year to the Raleigh office. Mr.
t Nichols came in a few weeks after;
and dispensed with a stamp clerk,
thus increasing the time of mail dis
tribution, and he now cuts off two
collections from the lamp posts. What
goes with the extra pay ?

Lewis Green and J. II. Giles, both col
ored, were arrested yesterday morning on
tbe charge of disorderly conduct. Oflacer
Stone says he was in the neighborhood of
Front and Market streets, when he noticed
Green running in the direction of Second
street and Giles in pursuit with a rock in
his hand. The officer followed -them up
Market to Second and down Second to
Dock, soon after turning into which latter
street they were overtaken and carried to
the guard house. Green said that Giles
struck him and then ran,- and frm the
language the former used it was natural to
suppose that he was in a very bad humor.

Port-au-Prince, Hayti, on lhe22d inst.,with
a cargo of 196,400 feet of lumber and 25,000
shingles, by Messrs. . Kidder & Sons, re
turned to this port yesterday in a leaky
condition. Capt. DowliDg reports that he
encountered a storm on Tuesday night, the
23d inst., just in the western edge of the
Gulf Stream, and that the sea was very
high, to give some idea of which it
may be mentioned that an anchor
suspended under the bow of the vessel was
washed from its position and landed on
deck. Part of the cargo of lumber was
washed overboard and the vessel sprung a
leak, when the captain put .back to this
port, entering the bar Thursday night. A
survey was held yesterday and it was or
dered that the vessel discharge cargo fcr
repairs. Tbe freight was covered by in
surance with Messrs Atkinson & Manning.
Tbe vessel wasconsigned to Messrs E. G.

Capt. A. H. Worth, of tbe steamer
A, P. Hurt, arrived here from Fayetteville
yesterday by rail. He reports that ho left
Spring Garden, about four miles this side
of Fayetteville, the nearest navigable point,
on Monday last at 10.20 o'clock A. M., in
his boat, with a flat in tow ; got down the
river fourteen miles and then trans
ferred his freight, consisting of about
225 casks of spirits turpentine, to the
mat, put a crew on her, and she came
down, as far as Willis' Creek, some dis
tance beyond Elizabethtown, when he
(Capt. Worth) left and travelled serosa the
country to the C C. Railroad and boarded
a train for this city. The fiat with the
freight was expected to reach here in about
two days. The steamer North. State, Capt.
Green, which left Wilmington on Friday of
last week, has been lying ever since at
Cypre8sCreek.seventymile8 above this city.
Herff reight was transferred there to a flat
for Fayetteville, and tbe Horth Slate was
taking on a cargo of rosin for this place at
White Hall and will probably reach here
to-day. There is scarcely any water In
the Upper Cape Fear and no improvement
has been noted.
We visited yesterday the Swed. baique
FriOiiof, Capt. Aug. Borin, which arrived
here recently from Havre, France. She
registers 545 tons, and is the first iron sail
ing; ship ever built in Sweden. She was
constructed at Sodertam, a seaport near
Stockholm, and is of iioa throughout, ex
cept her decks. Her dimensions are 175
feet in length, 30 feet in width of beam and
15 f ee.t iacdepth of hold, with a capacity
for 6,000 barrels of rosin. She is decidedly
one of tbe handsomest and neatest ships we
ever boarded; is provided with all the mod
ern conveniences for purposes of naviga
tion, and has handsome and well fur
nished rooms for the accommodation
of officers. In fact, bath outside and
in, she is : a model of strength 'and
beauty, and we do not blame Capt
Borin for the just pride he displays in his
noble craft She is also a very fast sailer,
as may.be inferred from the fact that she
came over in forty-one days, with a head
wind all the way, except about two hours,
during which, Bhe made the distance from
the Frying Pan Shoals Light Ship to the
Cape Fear river. She is about ten years
old, and is consigned to Messrs. Alex.
Spruht & Son, at whose wharf she is now
Ivine. It.4a regretted that she did not ar
rive, here in tbe proper season to take on a
cargo of cotton instead of rosin, it is ex
pected, however, that she will be here again
before tbe cotton season ends.
