There are seven indictments against Oapt. Howgate. One is for forgery, the others for embezzlement.,. The Marquis of Londonderry is a verv successful dealer in coal, but he does not drive his own cart. The South Carolina Legislature is in session and a long session is anti cipated. A very bitter fight is ex pected over the lien law, which, it is believed, will not be repealed. . Gen. Ben Butler and Gen. Roger A. Pryor have been retained by the j VtrarV TVIWianin's National Rank depositors. They get $3,500 each as a retainer, and $500 a day is gua ranteed each day during actual ser vice. Mr. George B. Corkhill, TJ. S. Dis trict Attorney, who made a telling speech in the prosecution of Guiteau, is an "Ohio idee." He was born at New Rumley in 1838. He was made Lieut. Colonel for gallantry in the war. Voorhee's flap-doodle oratory at Atlanta has made but few converts among the Democrats, if any. The fellow who can be bamboozled by his Protectionist talk is a fit subject for Dr. P. C. Bliss to practice on with his "cundurango" quackery. Mr. Blaine is not a candidate for any office but the Presidency. He will be the Garfield successor as far as the candidacy is concerned. Such is the latest. Of course Mr. Arthur aspires to be his own successor. But it may be, that some Democrat will spoil their calculations. The Mnrfreesboro (Tenn.) JVews says that Mr. E. M. Douglass killed a rattlesnake near Versailles on Nov. 5th that weighed 150 pounds and measured 0 inches round. Its fangs were H inches long. Many persons have seen it. This announcement I has made our snake editor very sad. Rev. James Purifoy, of Wake Forest, has been travelling in Georgia. He gives a gloomy account of the prospect for a crop. He is reported in the Richmond Herald as saying: "I travelled yesterday from Macon, Ga., to Atlanta, Ga., a distance of about one hundred miles, and the cotton crop in all that part of Georgia cannot average more than a bale to eight or ten ' acres, and the corn and other crops are no better." The five seamen from the wrecked ship France are now at Charleston, and they give a most interesting ac count of their hair-breadth adven tures. They took to the topen boats on October 23d, and on the 25th re turned to the ship... The crew be haved splendidly, and the Captain showed himself a most intrepid sea man. But all were lost but the five. A schooner saw these five, but left them to their fate. On November -d they were rescued. s"iJThy had lived eleven davs on one cnt !of water and a little wet biscuit that was paste. ' ; '. "J' ' ' '": : AAIX "-INU. 53. Postmaster . General James has made his annual report. He makes certain recommendations for econo my that will give two-cents letter postage, cheap money orders and postal savings banks: "The expenditures of the Denartment during me last fiscal year were $39,252,736, the receipts $36,785,397. leaving $2,481,129, or 6.3 per cent, of the total expenditure to be supplied from the Treasury. The re ceipts were 10.4 and the expenditures 8.7 per cent, larger than the year before. The expenditures for the vear endinsr June 30. 1883, are estimated at $43,661,800; the reve nues at $42,741,722.05; leaving $290,077 to 1 i; 3 i m rm uc euuuueu uy ue .treasury.

Miss Mary Anderson is playing in Philadelphia. She has improved evi dently. The Press treats her to criti cism that is in the main laudatory. It says: "Since she was last seen here at the "Wal nut Street Theatre she has gained in physi cal health, and for the first time seems to have attended her school of experience with profit. She has also gained in repose, in command of the voice, and in control over her hands and arms that were wont to fly out upon the slightest provocation in mean ingless and awkward gesticulation. Per haps the most marked improvement is in the better use of a magnificent voice and a more thorough understanding of its possi ble and appropriate modulations, and yet Miss Anderson's Juliet is not a poetic nor an imaginative performance. There was noth ing in it to suggest the warm Italian nature, the passionate lntensityof a love growing under tropical skies. There is a coldness, a predetermined will showing through all her action, that repels rather than attracts sympathy. Dr. R. Shelton Mackenzie, who has just died in Philadelphia, was a somewhat famous man of letters. He has edited and written many en- tertaining works. He was from the North of Ireland. The Press says in a kindly notice of him: "His life was a, link in the chain which binds the beginning with the third quarter of nineteenth centurv Enrlish literature: and by his death is removed the last of the group of Scotch-Irish men of letters men who, like Maginn and Mahoney, 'Father .trout, utilized in magazines and newspa pers a vast store of anecdote, wide range things expressed in a full, wise and witty manner. Ut. Mackenzie s puDlisUed wri- tings fill many volumes. His personal cha racter was in every way estimable, and his character was fully reflected in his literary work." Judge T. J. Mackey, of South Carolina, was a Radical, "pinted hisself,", cooperated with the Demo crats, was elected Judge by their votes, and is a man of ability. He made a speech at Georgetown last week to two colored bands that sere naded him. He talked Mahoneism pretty strong. He demanded that the negroes should have more repre sentation in the Legislature, and fa vored a blotting out of all party lines as far as the State was concerned. Gen. Loug8treet is in Washington. This is significant in view of the ru mors connecting his name with a Cabinet appointment. He is report ed as saying that he did not believe that the better class of Southern Re publicans would press the subject of a Southern man in the Cabinet upon the President. Gen. Longstreet was of course naturally reticent. Kev. Dr. Jxichard &. cstorrs has no equal in this country as a pulpit ora tor and the producer of the most masterful and eloquent orations. He nas Deen pastor of the Church of the Tno - r?ms Rrooklvu. for thirtv-five I - 7 J J yeara." His appreciative . ; oongrega- jti loi ina -oAntf1 him with a I vivu - , r giff 'of $35,000r or $1,000 for each year of his ministry. Ever since the war the Democrats have been in need of a true exponent of their faith, traditions, ideas and principles at the Federal Capital. The American Register promises to fill the bill excellently. It is being greeted very cordially by the Democratic press o,f every section. The price is $3 a year. It is a weekly. Spirits Turpentine.

Charlotte Observer: A cor respondent at Banaldsburg says he has been making it his business to inquire of the farmers in that section what their crops will consist of next season, and has met with the almost unanimous response of "wheat, oats and corn, at least enoueh for home consumption, with cotton for a sur plus."

Paul, of the United States lighthouse service, reports that under his supervision the channel over the southwest bar at the entrance to the harbor of Beaufort, North Carolina, has been rebuoyed, and the har bor is now one of the best in the country. vessels being able to enter the harbor draw ing nineteen feet at low water if they fol low the line of the buoys. The buoy at the inner bar has been discontinued and a second class red can buoy has been placed on the western edge of Shark Shoal. Jere miah W. Cox has been appotnted assistant keeper at Laurel Point, North Carolina, vice Wilson G. Ambrose, promoted. Oxford Torchlight : A most formidable reptile was killed near Sassafras Fork about a week ago, measuring twenty inches in length and four inches in circum ference, with a horn on the end of the tail one inch in length, similar to a cock's spur. This horn evidently contained a sting. When apparently dead, if touched near the tail it would twist its horn and thrust out the stinsr. We have searched our diction aries and works on zoology and find no mention made of this animal. We see the Masons of Wilson are preparing to sur prise the orphans at the Oxford Asylum on Thanksgiving Day by a good-sized contri bution of provisions and other substantiate. An example worthy of emulation. Our young colored men indulged in a tourna ment last Friday. Jessie Parham was the conquering hero, having caught eight rings out of a possible fifteen. Lenoir Topic: Several times during the past year we have had citizens of this section of North Carolina, who had moved away to the West or to the cotton region of South Carolina, to return to then homes, and in every instance they express themselves as fully convinced that, from a given amount of labor and capital, West-x era North Carolina yields a greater return than any other part of the United States. Over 75 witnesses were summoned to Boone in the homicide case Jfrom Ashe. Mr. M. D. Smith tells us of a family on Lower Creek, consisting of four women, who, during the past year, have spun 58, 000 yards of thread, woven 183 yards of cloth and made up 883 yards of cloth into garments, besides doing the cooking and house worK for a large lamuy. un the night of Saturday, Nov. 5, the store house of Stephen Eller,in Stony Fork town ship, Watauga county, was burned, includ ing about $2,000 worth of goods and other property.

The new school law requires the appointment of school commiteemen in each township in the State, on the Tuesday after the first Monday in December. State Ge ologist Kerr interviewed a day or two ago : . . r a iV ! CI a- in tne way ox woous were axe in. uus omuo 112 species, and of this number 104 species and varieties are displayed at Atlanta. In all of the Northern States there are only about 140 species of woods, and in all the Southern States only 128 species. In the geological museum were two collections of woods made eight years ago. une oi mese, complete, was taken to the "Vienna exhibi- j tion of 1873, where it attracted much at- j tendon. Prof. Kerr, at the close of the j exposition, presented these woods to the ' German government, on special request, and now the magnificent collection is one of the sights in the Imperial Museum at j Berlin. ' ince 1878,by degrees, the remain ing collection has doubled, and the State, taking one to Atlanta, gave the other to the Richmond & Danville Railroad Each of these contained about seventy-five spe. i cies, but. within the past .'"few months both have been increased to -104 species 'and va rieties, as above stated. . It should be stated in this connection that of all the States in the Union North Carolina is the only one which has a collection of woods worthy of mention. Speaking about trees which are ' ' : " . . . ':sv-a' ".-, .

Didn't Exactly Understand. A colored man was employed a day or two since to remove the wooden structures" erected at the various fire hydrants where the Water Works tests took place on Fri day last, and which were put there for the purpose of measuring the altitude of the streams thrown from each, the man being further instrncted to leave the material at a certain plac indicated. That afternoon Cuffy made his appearance at the office of the gentleman who had engaged his services and emphatically protested that he couldn't begin to think of doing the work for the price proposed, as he was not aware of the difficulty to be encountered when he pro mised to take the job. Knowing, of course, that the service required was not of such a serious nature as the man seemed to imagine, the gentleman finally concluded he would accompany the employe and en deavor to convince him of his mistake, and, upon doing so, found to his great amuse mentto say nothing of disgust that the fellow had actually been expending his strength in the vain effort to remove the hy drants, and had loosened the earth around one or two of them, besides battering and bruising them pretty badly, in trying to render the operation of "pulling 'em up" less difficult! A Monster Xnrtls. A gentleman of this city, now at May Port, Florida, writing under date of the 20th inst, gives us a description of a monster turtle captured off the entrance to St. John's river on Friday, the 18th inst, by the crew' of the schooner Annie E. Stevens, Captain Tico, while lying at anchor wait ing for the tide to come in. He weighed betwen four hundred and five hundred pounds, and he was six feet in length, two feet six inches in width and one foot six inches in depth; his fore flippers measured two feet six inches, his hind ones one foot three inches, and his head was eight inches and his neck fourteen inches in length. He was on his back, apparently trying to rid himself of some "suckers" which had adhered to his shell, and as he drifted by the vessel was shot and stunned and event ually captured by a slip noose thrown over a fore flipper, after being shot six times more. His like is said never to have been seen in those parts before. He was sent to Jacksonville and turned over to somescien tists there. Tne Fire Yesterday Afternoon. A fire broke out yesterday afternoon, about 3 o'clock, in the house attached to Messrs. E. Kidder &' Sons' steam saw mills in which gas is generated for the use of the establishment, and came near resulting se riously. The generator burst and caused the. flames to spread quite rapidly, but by the prompt arrival of the fire department, which was summoned by telephone, they were soon gotten under control, the dam age being confined to the destruction of the machine house and the "shed over the boil er. A committee ..called- Tipon. us to state that the hand-engine 5?Columbia' No. 5, colored, threw the first stream and held the flames in check untU , tiie arrival of the steam engines, and did good service, not withstanding their energies ; wete cramped by the lack of the proper facilities for fight ing the destroying element. The damage was slight Revival . We learn, that there is quite an interest ing revival in progress at the Baptist Church at Riley's Creek, Pender county, under the ministrations of Rev. W. M. Kennedy.

The dwelling house of Mr. William Walker, about five miles from Long Creek, Pender county, known as the old Fred. Moore homestead, was destroyed by fire a few nights since. There was nobody in the house at the time but an old colored man, who could not account for the origin of the fire, which is supposed, we learn, to have been set to the building out of re venge for Mr. Walker's participation in an effort to unearth a certain disreputable transaction in that neighborhood not long ago. Mr. W. estimates his loss on house and furniture all of the latter being de stroyed at not less than $1,500, upon which there was no insurance. Foreign Shipments.

WINSLOWS SOOTHING SYRUP Re Sylvanus Cobb thus writes the "Boston Christian Freeman " : We would by no means recommend any kind of medicine which we did not know to be good particularly for infants. But of Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup we can speak from knowledge ; in our own family it has proved a blessing indeed, by giving an Infant troubled with colic pains, quiet sleep, and its parents unbroken rest at night. Most parents can appreciate these blessings. Here is an article which works to per fection, and which is harmless; for the steep which it affords the infant is perfectly natural, and the little cherub awakes as "bright as a but ton." And during the process of teething its value is incalculable. We have frequently heard mothers say they would not be without it from the birth of the child till it had finished with- the teething siege, on any consideration whatever.

YOUR ATTENTION IS CALLED TO THE FOL lowing : Whenever your Telephone is out of order don't fail to' report it promptly. My endeavor is to get all instruments in working order, and to keep them so, if possible. You understand, of course, that a Telephone Exchange, with its net-work of wires, forms a very complicated system, and although the ut most vigilance is given, there will be tunes when some of the many wires will become grounded, crossed, or broken, but as soon a such cases come to our notice we will endeavor to remedy them in as short time as possible. Subscribers are requested to answer calls promptly, and to use numbers, as it greatly fa cilitates the business of the Exchange. The par ty who calls for a connection must never fail to say disconnect, when through talking, for if this is neglected the wires may remain connected in definitely, and thus unavailable for parties who may want them. Operators cannot know by in tuition when the wires are idle. If the above is complied with I see no rea son why we shouldn't have a good working Ex change. Address all communications to nov 24 St J.
