Washington for Guiteau's coun- sel ask for further time in which to prepare tbo case. Hon. Sackville West, the new British Minister, arrived at New York yesterday. The London limes says that the Bank of England holds no money for the payment of Confederate bonds. Meetings of the Ladies' Land League in Ireland are npt interfered with. A Texas stage robber gets ninety-nine years in the penitentiary. Fred. Freling- huysen qualified as receiver of the busted Mechanic's Bank of Newark. .Ac counts of the rioting in county Mayo, Ire land, were exaggerated ; only one death re sulted from the shooting. --Confederate dollar-bonds have declined in London. It is announced from Washington that the State Department has had ib corres nondence with the British Government concerning a reported balance in English banks to the credit of the late Confederacy. The net revenues of the government for the fiscal year, ending June 30th last, were $380,782,292, the net expenditures $260,712,887. over ninety millions were ex pended in a reduction of the public debt. -Snowing in the Northwest yesterday. Investigation into the conduct of the Ninth Massachusetts regiment at Rich mond, Ya., on their visit to Yorktown, has begun at that city, by a committee" sent South for the purpose. Hon. Edward Atkinson delivered an address at the At lanta Exposition, the occasion being "man ufacturers' day. " New York markets : Money 64 per cent. ; cotton firm at lite: southern flour active and weak at $3 90;j,8 50 ; wheat weak, ungraded $1 23$ 1 45; corn ifc lower, closing heavy, ungraded 6(x70o; rosin dull at $2 50 2 52 V; spirits turpentine dull and easier at 534c. Guiteau is anxious to be tried. He must have faith in the insanity dodge. It is believed in London that Mr. Gladstone contemplates retiring to private life. During October the coinage at the mi ints of the United States amounted to $1 2,653,590. Tlie Washington Post has become a pictorial daily, good newspaper. It is now a very "Pinkeye" is all the rage just now in many sections of the North, and is work in x Southward. At Pittston, Pa., there are over one hundred cases of small-pox, and the excitement is great. New York feels more comfortable and once more washes its face. The threatened water famine is lifted. If Blaine and his tribe do not walk the plank then I am not the power behind the throne. Eoscoe Conk lin'J. A Washington rumor is to the ef fect that Gen. James A. Williamson, of Iowa, has been tendered the Sec retaryship of the Interior. Guiteau belonged to the 'Oneida Community" in New York. Mr. J. H. Noyes, its founder, says be does not believe in Guiteau's insanity and will so testify. Mr. Arthur isaid to have spoken within a day or two quite plainly as to his wishes regarding the Star Route rascals. He wishes them pro secuted without delay. Good, General Wickham, the self-respecting Republican in Virginia who would not swallow Mahone and his ticket, prophecies that Daniel will be elected by 20,000. Oh, that he may prove a true prophet. The public debt was reduced $13, 000,000 in October At the rate of re duction that has been observed for some months it would take but ten years to wipe it out. Since J uly 1 it has been reduced $55,064,345.08. The following items show how enormous were the swindles perpe trated in the Star Route lines: "The annual cost of service on the Star Routes in Montana has been reduced by the Postmaster General to-day from $18. 739 to $6,425 in one case and from $lt,627 to $5,412 in the other." The Philadelphia Times does; itself ao credit in trying to whitewash the conduct of the Massachusetts Ninth at Richmond, Virginia. It denies that they "did the things charged against them." The Richmond State tells another story, as do other papers. HOIliC&aiA According to the Springfieldf publican the illustrious' Robert C. Winthrop, the orator at,; Xorktown, was neglected shamefully. ' Old as 5-.JU'-"Ui-i'i..r 7 3 "To ti Vf lTi!XlCT X ---Nl Rfi I ' - VJUKtfcifcJ-ti.i - -. ,41 w tlU. he. is he' was left to plough his way ori foot through' the deep sand to his quarters." It says;. - "No committee or citizen attended upon him ; but Governor Long happily spied the ota man trudging , on, ana sent a 'bus to carry tne wayfarer to his temporary home; Mr. Winthrop was lodged in a historic man sion, the furniture of which Dr. Loringhad sent down from Washington. After the oratioB some Massachusetts eentlemen call ed on Mr. Winthrop, and it came out that the orator of the brave occasion was left without food. His son had foraged the Tillage in vaia for a supply. " This is very shameful and inexcus able. ' The'French guests have made loud complaints as to neglect. It was the worst managed affair that ever occurred. We hope never to hear again of any such attempts at glorification. The Baltimore Gazette places a very different estimate upon Keene from that placed by the Washington Post. The latter accused him of ranting in the old Bowery school way. The former says of his Riche lieu: "Mr. Keene was' very careful in giving the various points of this great character, and throughout study and thought were evidenced, while the powerful scenes were rendered with great force, beauty and ef fect. There was an entire absence of rant; there' was no overstraining for effect, and from the beginning to the end his perform ance was a masterly one." For information concerning the boom in Confederate bonds write to Judah P. Ben jamin, London, England. He may not tell you all he knows, but if there's anybody who knows it all Benjamin is the man. Washington rvt. Mr. Benjamin wrote" some time ago that there was no money in the Bank of England belonging to the late Southern Confederacy, and that it was foolish to suppose otherwise. The editor of the Weldon Nexos saw the letter. The announcement in New York that the President was to be in that city is said to hare caused much ex- tluIU8- uv vreurg " mmg.,uu or Thomas Jefferson running down to Virginia to help pull the political wires in a State fight. We beg par- don of the shades of G. W. and T. J. for the thought. Here is what the Baltimore Amer- ican has to say ot JNortn Carolina ores and minerals at Atlanta: "The collection of North Carolina ores and minerals exhibited by the agent of the Richmond & Danville Railroad is said to be rich and various beyond anything of the kind ever seen before. North Carolina is believed to contain the greatest mineral de posits on the continent, and Yancey, Bun combe, Jackson, Swain, Macon and Chero kee counties are declared to excel Colorado and Nevada in subterranean resources." Dr. Ralph Walsh, editor of the Hetrospeet of 3fedicine and Surgery, takes the position in the last number that President Garfield's wound need not have ' proved fatal. Dr. Pus Cavity Bliss, as the New Haven Register calls him, is arraigned se verely. It is not a fight in which non-professionals can take a hand. Spirits Turpentine. The scarlet fever is at New Berne. Charlotte Observer: Yesterday was the largest cotton day of the season, the receipts being 401 bales. . Mr. W. A Benyhill, the enterprising marble deal er of this city, is having a bloek of the fa mous leopard! te stone, of which there is a quarry near Charlotte, cut into the shape of the animal from which it takes its name. Warren News : We agree with the Stab in the opinion that a great mis take is made by many of our farmers, espe cially the farmers in parts of Virginia, in placing the White Burley superior to the to bacco grown by the tobacco counties of our State. Nor are we alone in our belief. Many prosperous and successful farmers with whom we have talked and who know something of the qualities of the Burley, are of the same mind. New Berne JVat Shell: The business men and our people generally will be waited upon for their signatures to a pe tition asking the Poetoffice Department to give the public a double daily mail service between Goldsboro and New Berne. Mr. Best has finally withdrawn the shop proposition from consideration, and decid ed upon their location elsewhere. We have not had an intimatian of the fact, but we surmise that the shps will be located on some of the waters of Chatham or Ran dolph counties. Raleigh Visitor: Mrs. Simp son, mother of William Simpson, Esq., died at 12 30 o'clock to-day, after a linger ing illness, in her 73d year. -The Ra leigh girls are like most girls of other towns. Some are pretty, some ugly and some full of fun and frolic The crowd at the Industrial Fair on Wednes dry was very small, but the exhibition is Suite a creditable one In all departments, a Floral Hall, we noticed many beautiful article, the handiwork Of different colored women" from all parts of the State. " Concord Sun : Morton's house, at Big Lick. Stanly county, was troyed by fire on Friday morning, 21st ult., about 5 o'clock. A large quantity of cot ton was burned with it, and the entire loss is about $1,000. Circumstances lead to the belief that it was an incendiary fire. We recently gave- publication to the rumor that William Nicholson, a refugee from this county, had been killed out West. The San Francisco Examiner, one of ourCali ifornla etcuaeesi reeeiveil last fweek,1con tains this item: "William Nicholson was ivio H WILMINGTON, N.

His many friends here will be glad to learn that he is getting along wen, . . tie says : A nobler State than the Old North, and a better population than ner own citizens native ana adopted i have not seen between the Roanoke and the Rocky Mountains." Lumberton Robesonian: A hor rible accident occurred at the steam saw mill and cotton gin of Mr. Lewis R. Ha mer, on the Harleesville road, thirteen miles from this place, last Friday. George Smith, a son of Mr Enos Smith, who is employed in superintending the ginning process, attempted to make some change about the shafting while the machinery was in motion, when Mb shirt sleeve was caught, and his right arm was completely torn from his body, carrying with it the shoulder blade. The wonder is that he was not in stantly killed. At last accounts he was soil living, perfectly conscious and suffer ing no pain. A Highland Historical Society for the Cape Fear would be a good thing. How would Mr. George Lauder, of Fayetteville, or Mr. Alex. Sprunt, of Wil- Oington, do for President? , .'. y-r - Raleigh News-Observer Cotton in the fields hereabouts has renewed its youth. It is of a vivid green and all in bloom. With no frost for six weeks we would have a second crop, as good, no uoudi, as me nrst one. A tame buz zard is one of the curiosities shown at the colored fair. He eats from.' the owner's hand. The Douglass Guards, colored, of Danville, Ya., arrived in the city yester day, and were met at the depot by the two colored companies of Raleigh, whose guests iney are. ihey are dressed in the Virginia State uniform of erev. We learn from our correspondent that the dwelling house and kitchen belonging to Maj. John Wilson, who lives one mile from Colerain, in Bertie county, were entirely consumed by fire on Friday night, about 2 o'clock. The fire originated in the kitchen, which was connected with the dwelling house. The loss is estimated to be about $3,000 ; no insurance. Oxford Torchlight: The ninth annual session of the North Carolina State Grange will be held at Weldon, beginning on Tuesday, December 13th. This institu tion has not prospered in North Carolina as it deserved. There is no good reason why it should not now do so. They say that the young men of tobacco proclivities irom u ran vi lie and Vance counties made Richmond right lively last week. Rather an anomalous state of affairs that these buy ers and warehouse men who have bought and sold once should go to headquarters and buy and sell again. We are no dog in the manger but we confess to a de pressing feeling when we see great droves of cattle from Northern Granville passing through our streets on their way to Raleigh. But we cannot blame them for wanting the beef of Northern Granville, for it is said to be unapproachable in its flavor and juici ness. Let the people of Wake read up and work up on home supplies. Raleigh Farmer and Mechanic: Mr. T. C. Harris is making wood cuts to illustrate a' "Life of Redmond, the Outlaw." The depots at Statesville are to be con solidated, and the gauge of the .Statesville & Charlotte Railroad changed to suit the Charlotte & Augusta Kailroad, so that the passenger who leaves Statesville for Augus ta need not leave his seat between the two places. Henry W. Grady, correspond in? editor of the Atlanta Constitution, had a fine watch stolen from him at Yorktown. We thought he wasn't so wide awake as he pretends. Dr. G. E.

W. & W. R. R, Change of schedule. W., C. & A. R. R. Change of schedule Some of our business friends have sug gested that a through pouch for Norfolk by night train connecting at Weldon with the fast train from Raleigh, reaching Norfolk early in the morning, would be a source of no little convenience, and they would be, glad if our obliging Postmaster, Colonel Brink, whose ears have ever been open to the appeals of the business community, would interest himself in the effort to se cure such an accommodation. According to the present arrangement a reply to a letter written in Wilmington on Monday would not reach here from Norfolk until so late an hour on Wednesday night that it would not get into the hands of the party to whom it was addressed until Thursday morning, while if the above suggestion were carried into effect the communication between the two cities and other points on the line would be prompt, which in some instances might prove very important. Mayor Court. John Lunn and Henry Smith, two sea men, arrested Wednesday night by Officer C. M. Harris, charged with engaging in an affrayv had a hearing before the Mayor yes terday mbrning, when Smith was dis charged and Judgment.' was suspended in case of Lunn on payment of costs. - We were glad to see Major J H. Hill on the streets yesterday. The receipts of cotton at this port yesterday footed up 1,191 bales, At 12 o'clock last night the ther mometer in the Stab office registered 55 de grees. At 9 o'clock it was about 70. - The Clerk of the Market reports the arrival here during the month of Octo ber of 637 vegetable and 572 fish carts. Col. Wharton J. Green, of Cum berland, is now on a visit to Wilmington. We had the pleasure of a call yesterday from him. We were glad to see Mr. Jno. W. Reilly on the streets yesterday, ap parently fully recovered from the effects of his late accident. ' A change of schedule is adver tised by the Wilmington & Weldon and the Wilmington, Columbia & Augusta Rail roads, to take place on the 6th inst. A love feast is to be held at the t Front Street Methodist church at half -past 7 o'clock this (Friday) evening, which will be the last one for the present Conference year. Mr. R. W. Chadwick, formerly of this city, but now of Beaufort, N. O, and one of the editors and proprietors of the Telephone of that place, is here on a visit to his daughter, Mrs. W. W. Shaw. The Barque Normandy, Capt. M. C. Curry, was cleared from this port for Antwerp, yesterday, by Messrs. Alex. Sprunt & Son, with 3,300 barrels of rosin. and 500 casks of spirits turpentine, valued at $30,000. A colored couple went to the City Hall about 9 o'clock Wednesday night and asked Mr. Wm. Mints, the night jani tor, to marry them. Mr. M. told them they were in the wrong pew and directed them to a magistrate. Mr. John Brooks, who had his hand so badly injured in a cotton gin at South Washington, Pender county, a few days ago, mention of which was made in the Star, will, it is thought, probably have to submit to amputation. Every afternoon, about 4 or 5 o'clock, a delicate damsel of dusky hue, and of not more than three hundred pounds avoirdupois, can be seen driving a flock of just fifty-nine ducks along Water street, that they may pick up the stray grains of corn and other forage that may chance to fall from passing drays, and it now looks as if the ducks may one day become as fat, proportionately, as their mistress. The Fire Last Evenlne Six Home Burned. The alarm of fire yesterday afternoon. about 5 o'clock, was caused by the burning of six small one-story frame buildings on Dawson, between Third and Fourth streets, in the extreme southern section of the city. The fire originated in the one next to the corner of Third and Dawson, owned by Johnson Hooper, colored, and occupied by Henry Haslin, colored, and destroyed that, the one west of it, also belonging to John son Hooper, and occupied by Amos King, colored, and then, on the east, the houses owned and occupied by Frank Bryan and John McKinney, colored, and Mr. Henry Burnett, and the one on the corner of Fourth and Dawson, owned by Capt. W. A. Gum ming and occupied by a white widow lady named Smith. Henry Haslin and Frank Bryan lost part of their furniture. The Fire Department was promptly on hand, and the C. M. Stedman Company, lo cated in that ward, was on the ground, and was particularly . noticeable as doing excel lent service in the immediate vicinity of the conflagration. They also had the misfor tune to lose one of their hooks. During the height of the excitement a cry was raised that a baby was missing, but it was subsequently recovered uninjured. It seemed to be the impression that there was very little insurance on the property. Another Attempted. Burclary. In addition to those already given, we have heard of another instance Of an at tempt to enter the residence of one of our citizens. On Wednesday morning a lady residing on Fifth street woke up about 2 o'clock, and, thinking it was about day light, looked out of her window, when she discovered a stout colored man, bare-footed, under the same. She had some of the male members of the family aroused and two of them ran out, one of them discharging his pistol in the direction where the burglar was supposed to be concealed. From the condition in which one of the windows was found it is supposed he must have previous- ly entered a room m , tne wing io uie mam building. Our police and citizens cannot be too vigilant. magistrate' Court. Frank Davis, mate of one of the schooners in port, was arraigned before Justice Millis, yesterday, charged with as sault and battery upon C. Simmons. Judg ment was suspended on payment of costs.

What Disposition wm Made of Several . Cases of Importance. Pending the adjournment of the U. S. District Court in the early part of the week, in consequence of the illness of Judge Brooks and Ms consequent inability to at tend, District Attorney Albertson, who, in such cases, as the highest officer of the Government, is allowed more than ordinary latitude, disposed of a few cases of some importance. Jesse Hall, for attempting to pass a counterfeit com upon Mrs. Daniel Register, of Bladenboro', Bladen county, some four or five months ago, and who has since been in jail here, was brought into court and submitted, and was remanded to jail, where it is supposed he will be permit ted to take the insolvent . debtor's oath at the end of thirty days. Wm. Mooney, an old resident of Bruns wick county, who was arrested some time ago on the charge of attempting to commit a fraud upon the Pension Bureau by falsely representing himself to have been a soldier in the war of 1812, was surrendered by his sureties and went to jail, but was subse quently released on his own recognizance in the sum of $500 for his appearance at the next term of the Court: this act of len iency and mercy being based: upon the age and infirmities of the defendant. George W. Blaney, colored, charged with abstracting a letter from the mails in this city some six or eight months ago, and whose case was continued until the last term', will 'have to remain in jail until the next term of the Court. Sam. Kornegay, implicated in the same transaction, renewed his bond and was discharged. Several parties, charged with violating the internal revenue laws, made submis sions to the District Attorney and were permitted to settle the same. Wheeling; a Bafey Over a Wire 100 Feet from the Ground. "The daring acts of the heroic little air queen, M'lle Zuila, formed the grand centre of attraction last night.

Last night she performed the startling feat of going to the top of the canvas, where she perched herself on a seat that had been arran tremu over her to her arms in a sack, and seizing the trapeze bar, she flew a distance of fifty feet: turning a hand-to-hand somersault in mid-air, and traversing, with bandaged eyes and body encased in sacks, the slen der, and scarcely discernible wire! The wildest enthusiasm prevailed at the termi nation of this, the most audacious and adroit exhibition of courage and skill ever seen in this city.

Editor of the Star: It has been ob served that we have no regular quotations of rice in our market reports, either of rough or cleaned rice. Perhaps it is due to . the limited production of this grain since the civil war. It is to be hoped that since the growth of this crop has so largely in creased during the last three years that the planters may have the benefit of full market rates, and there is no better way to insure this than bv a freouent nubheauon ot the prices of this article at the principal rice iaarkets Soutn, as well as at tne JNortn. The pioneer planters who undertook to es tablish this growth (after the universal failures that followed its introduction sub sequent to the close of the civil war) are entitled to full market values for their crops. Thev labor under the disadvantages of a small market and great distance to larger onea It is true note, but was not last year, that the owners of the new pounding mills agree to pound any rice that they refuse to buy.
