In ihc Senate reports were made from
committees for reducing revenue taxation
anil for river and harbor improvements ; the 4
Hons considered the Naval Appropriation
hill, and adopted the amendments agreed to
.in committee of the Whole; a bitter per
sonal debate took place between Messrs.
Robeson, of New- York, and Whitthorne, of
Tennessee. The Egyptian Ministry re

dependent of Alabama have nominated a
State ticket, which it is thought will be en
dorsed by the Republican Convention in
session at Montgomery; the colored element
largely predominates In the latter Conven
tion. The latest reports from Alexan
dria are to the effect that Admiral Seymour
yesterday sent- an ultimatum to the Egyp
tian authorities demanding a cessation of
work on the fortifications, and that it has
been stopped for the present. The
French Cabinet have directed Admiral Con
rad to remain passive, in connection with
the threatened bombardment of Alexandria
by the English fleet, but at the same time
wishes the Egyptians to understand that
France does not oppose the action of Eng
land. . The Tariff Commission met in
Washington yesterday, but did nothing ex
cept make acquaintances with each other,
and pay their respects to President Arthur
and Secretary Folger. The reported
resignation of Minister Lowell is officially
denied. It is reported that Guiteau's
body has been removed from its temporary

The killing of Maj. Blair by Capt.
Haile appears to have been purely
a personal affair. Blair was killed
instantly while advancing upon
TT mi . . v
naiie. ine negroes gatnered in
Camden as if they meant to mob
Haile, who has been bailed in the
sum of $5,000 by Judge Kershaw.
Maj. Blair was the son of the late
Gen. James Blair, who served in the
U. S. House for eight years, and kill
ed himself in Washington. The News
and Courier says of him:
"He was well educated, and devoted a
naturally strong intellect to scientific re
searches. He was for many years the edi
tor of the Camden Journal', and was regard
ed as a writer of considerable ability. Du
ring the war he was an officer in Nelson's
battalion, Hagood's brigade. After serving
creditably for two years, he was forced by
ill health to retire.
"Mai.- Blair was recklessly brave, and
disposed to be aggressive in act and word.
The letters he wrote during his canvass for
Governor and during the present year were
bitterly abusive, and it is a matter of sur
prise that a collision between Blair and
some one of those whom he assailed had
not taken place before."
Capt. Haile married in this State.
Affairs grow worse in Ireland and
the British Government is steadily
tightening the rein and developing
into despotic rule towards that af
flicted and wronged country. The
Philadelphia Times notes the follow-
ng contrast:
"It is a coincidence that will Drobablv
have attracted attention in Ireland as well
as in America that on the day we celebrate
as the anniversary-of American indepen
dence the" British Parliament was occupied
with measures; for the subjugation of Ire
land that are really harsher than those
which provoked the American colonists
into rebellion. If the Declaration of Inde
pendence were read to the Irish it would
seem but a mild expression of their griev
ances." Louisianians are proverbially ex
travagant. The Governor gets $10,
000 a year, his private secretary
$4,400, and his porter $2,000. He
has also allowed him $3,000 for ex
ecutive office expenses, $1,000 for
travelling expenses, $8,000 for offer
ing rewards and $1,200 for rents of
dwellings. In other words the Go
vernor's office taxes the people
$27,600. The other officers are paid
proportionately high. Judges re
ceive $8,000. The whole thing is
got op on the most extravagant and
anti-republican plan.
The condition of affairs at Alex
andria, ?gypt, is very threatening.
Owing to the course of the natives in
fortifying Admiral Seymour, of the
British navy, gave notice that he
would bombard the city unless there
was a cessation in the operations.
This was unheeded at first, but an
ultimatum,, sent yesterday, put a
stop to the work for the present. The
French Admiral will remain passive
for the present, but the Egyptians
are notified that the government is
not opposed to the position assumed
by England. A day or two will
bring matters to a crisis.

that the rain storm did the crops along its

To-morrow night this noted English lec

Alluding to his expected visit to Charles

ton's reputation for culture and apprecia
tion of literaiy merit warrants him in ex
pecting a large and fashionable audience.
Despite the flings of unappreciative North
ern critics Mr. Wilde is a gentleman, a
man of education and a poet of no mean
ability, and as such he has met with flatter
ing receptions throughout his Southern
tour." Mr. Wilde's present lecture, the
second he has prepared in this country, is
said to be devoted to what may be called
the practical application of his theory to
every day home life, being the principles
of aesthetic art as applied generally to the
wide range of art ornamention, and has
met with universal success wherever deliv
ered. The lecturer usually wears a suit
consisting of dark velvet coat and knee
breeches, with a profusion of lace around
the neck, down the front and at the cuffs, '
and sports dark stockings and patent
eather pumps.
RIVER AND MARINE.
The Schr. L. Sturdevant, D. W. Tol-
son, master, of Philadelphia, is ashore on
the beach near Myrtle Grove Sound, or
about six miles north of Federal Point.
She sailed from Philadelphia for this port
June 25th, and experienced heavy weather,
finally springing a leak, which was found
to increase with such rapidity that, to save
the lives of the officers and crew, Capt.
Tolson determined to run the vessel ashore.
She war' headed for the beach, which
she struck at the noint named on the
morning of Wednesday, the 5th inst.
Her ' cargo consists of fifteen thousand
brick and three tons of terra cptta
pipe, the latter for the Clarendon Water
Works Company. At last accounts the
vessel was going to pieces and will prove a
total loss, while it is probable that the cargo
will share he same fate. The cargo is fully
insured. If the present weather continues
it is thought likely that the sails, rigging,
anchors and chains may be saved. The
Sturdevant was quite an old vessel, having
been built at Wilmington, Del., in 1861,
and registered 123 tons. She was owned by
James Wallace and others, of Philadelphia.
Since writing the above we haye seen Mr.
R. H. Beery, just from the wreck, who re
ports that she commenced going to pieces
yesterday at 12 o'clock, and that when he
left she had been completely broken up.
The cargo is a total loss. The sails and
rigging have been stripped from the spars.

CHAR LOTTE FEMALE INSTITUTE.
This has been called the age of progress,
and it is pleasant to note that the fair city
of Charlotte is not behind her neighbors in
manifesting the spirit of improvement. The
most careless observer may see here, from
year to year, the multiplied evidences of
advance, not only ra the variety and extent
of the business enterprises and manufacto
ries, but in the homes, which bear the im
press of comfort and thrift and refined
adornment.
That she keeps abreast of the times in her
schools also, was illustrated in a marked
manner by the recent commencement exer
cises of the "Charlotte Female Institute.'
Amid difficulties that would have dauuted
many others, the present principal, Rev.
Wm. K. Atkinson, has kept in view the
highest ideal of a school, which should be
first or all Christian in spirit, then thorough
in scholarship, and at the same time not
neclectful of the exace and accomplish
ments which serve to finish and round into
perfect symmetry woman's character. He
has spared neither trouble nor expense in
procuring teachers fitted to carry out his
plans. Some of. them are endeared to
North Carolinians by the ties of kindred
and association, and have been known and
loved for years as among the best educators
in the State; others bring to their work the
culture obtained at the North or in Europe.
It is the testimony of those wno have a
personal knowledge of their character and
methods that the teaching in this school is
done faithfully and conscientiously and in
accordance with the highest standards of
the day. From a personal inspection of
some of the examination papers the writer
can bear witness to the thoroughness of the
scholarship required, and the fact that the
teachers in their highest grades look for
and find their best scholars in the ranks of
those who have been trained from the be
ginning in the school itself is proof enough
of success.
On the 6th and 7th of June the doors of
the Institute were thrown open to its friends
and patrons. They were first invited to In
spect the results of the year's work in the
Art Department. In a large room was dis
played a bewildering array of beautiful pic
tures and fancy articles. The first object
to attract the eye was an elegant mantel
in the "Queen Anne" style, the tiles
and panels exqusitely decorated by two
of the young ladies, and the man
tel, itself a work of art, made by a native
wofkingm&n in Charlotte. Time wonld
not suffice to mention each article separate
ly. Among the pictures, which included
drawings and mm tine of landscapes and
figures, object drawings, a crayon portrait.
- 0 o
etc, two were especially attractive a
copy of Fidelia Bridges "September and
an "Ocean View." In a long row of deco
rated table tops one was especially -ad
mired, .on which was painted a graceful
half-wreath of water lilies, so true to lite
that it seemed possible to pick out one
of the beauties, as it lay there
with its leaved petals, mottled leaves, and
thick, flexible stems. There were hand
some screens, delicately painted china,
plaques in variety, and dainty fancy articles
--and all. from the lareest to the smallest.
bore the impress of the highest culture and
refinement. Too much praise cannot be
accorded to the ladv. Miss U. A. Savacre.

who had seen her at work in the studio,
who knew something of her methods, the
mingled firmness and gentleness of her
manner and the enthusiasm of her pupils,
were not surprised that the results seemed
so wonderful,
Tuesday night the hall was crowded
with those who assembled to witness the
graduating exercises and hear the address
by the Rev. Dr, Boggs. Six young ladies
graduated, and received, beside their di
ploma, each a gold medal as a memento of
their school ' days, Thejr were also pre
sented by the Principal with Bibles.
Dr. ooggs address was a ciear ana origi
nal exposition of the "woman Question.
enlivened by wit and humor, and abound
ing in earnest and eloquent passages.
Two young ladies, graduates in instru
mental 'music, performed with great skill
very difficult pieces by celebrated com
posers, and a graduate in vocal music ex
hibited the most thorough training as she
sang. with -sweet, bird-like" notes a "Scene
and Aria from the Opera Hamlet."

WHO IS MRS. WINSLOW ? A thin nnmlVm
is frequently asked, we will simDly say that aha la
a lady who for upwards of thirty years has unti
ringly devote! her time and talents as a female
Physician and nurse, principally among child rsn.
She has especially studied the constitution and
wants of uds numerous class, and, as a nnwJt of
this effort, and practical knowledge, obtained In
a lifetime spent as a nurse and Dhvstclan. she has
compounded a Soothing Syrup for children teeth
ing. It operates like magic gi Ting rest and
health, and is, moreover, sure to rfrulat the
bowels. In consequence of this artiole Mrs. Wins
low is becoming world-renowned as a benefactor
of her race; children oertalnly do ains vr and
bless her; especially Is this the cane In thk ctty.
Vast quantities of the Soothing Hymn are daily
sold and and here. We think Mrs. wlnalow baa
immortalized her name by this Invaluable art I
cle. and we sincerely believe thousands of chil
dren have been saved from an early grave by Its
timely ase, and that millions vet unborn will
share its benefits, and unite in calling ber Mesaed.
No Motrxb has discharged her duty to herunr
ing little one, in our opinion, until she has given
it the benefit of Mrs. wlnslow's Soothing Syrup.
Try It, mothers tut rr now. Ladim' l.lrtW.New
