OUTLINES.
The burning of the steamer R. E. Lee, it
is believed by the officers of the boat, was
the work of an incendiary. Jim
Rhodes, the murderer of the Massie family,
was taken from jail at Charlottesville, Va.,
by a mob and hung to a tree. Brophy,
the Irish-American suspect, has been re
leased. The Wilson-Walling wool
manufactory at Milbury. Mass., has failed
with liabilities of $91,000. C. M.
Barnes, a New York Herald correspondent,
shot and seriously wounded by a newspa
per reporter at San Antonio, Texas.
St. Louis workingmen nominated a full
cit' ticket and endorsed the Greenback
State ticket. A west-bound train on
the Atchison & Santa Fe Railroad stopped
b3r armed men and the express car robbed;
nothing was taken from the passengers.
John R. Bagges killed his wife and
daughter, near Clarksburg, W. Va., while
crazy from drink'. The yellow fever
epidemic at Brownsville and Matamoras is
virtually at an end; forty-five new cases
and four deaths reported at Pensacola.
Greece declines to renounce any of the ter
ritory ceded to her by Turkey. A
hurricane in Ireland Saturday did great
damage at Limerick, Cork, and Newry; at
Queenstown several vessels were wrecked.
A passenger train wrecked on the
Memphis & Charleston Railroad near Madi
son, Ala. and several persons injured.
Alice Simmons and her sou were struck

For some days Judge Lynch has
been enjoying a recess. But he has
opened Court and his first victim is
in Virginia. A murderer was the
victim.
The last from Folger, who was
nominated through fraud, is that he
will not decline. May be Folger is
not better after all than his asso
ciates. The Democrats are beginning to
entertain hopes of capturing Colo
rado. Garfield only beat Hancock
2,803 votes and this year the Rads
.are quarrelling among themselves.
Miss Belle Jones has recovered $9,
f000 damages of Mr. Irving Fuller,
for breach of promise, at Laurens, S.
C. He married the other woman.
"You pays your money and you takes
your choice."
The yellow fever has about spent
itself .at Matamoras and at Browns
ville. This is very cheering news.
But at Pensacola it is still prevailing
alarmingly although it does not seem
to.be so extremely fatal.

VOL. XXXI. NO. 9.
The Star has not given much con
sideration to Mr. W. J. Best and his
projects for a Year or more. In the
Midland route an unexpected opposi
tion to him has been developed, and
the lease of the Atlantic & North
Carolina Railroad is declared for
feited. The property will be taken
charge of by the Board of Directors.
What all this portends we do not
pretend to understand.
"AN EXCELLENT PAPER.'
Marion (S. C.) Merchant and Farmer.
The earliest news we get is from
ine Wilmington Morning star,
wmch has iust entered upon its six
teenth year. The Star is an excel

Hon. W. T. Dortch is nominated for the
Senate from Wayne and Duplin, and F.M.
Aycock and Willis T. Brogden for the
tiouse irom vvayne. This looks like the
Wayne Democrats saw victory ahead.
The Wilmington Stab condemns the at-
athy of the Democrats in that section in not
organizing. And, mark our words, this
same apathy is existing to a very great ex
tent in ViO OnA PAnmiODiAnnl Ttintmt

Another Richmond m the field. Amos
Ragan announces himself an independent-
itepuDiican candidate for sheriff.
Winston, the Greenback crank, will be en
dorsed to-morrow by the Republican con
vention for Congress. Ball's efforts to se
cure the nomination have been ridiculously
aDomve. jno one man can cope with the
rievenue machine that dominates this dis
trict. Goldsboro, Sept. 28. Recent
developments in tne ilubbs-O Jiara contest
for Congress in this district invests the race
with considerable interest. Hubbs will
not withdraw from the contest, but will
fight it through to the bitter end. The
scheme now on foot is to trade off Dockery
in the interest of Hubbs. The split in the
Republican party here is thought to be be
yond repair. Lot Humphrey is conspicu
ous among O Mara s supporters, Oreens-
boro Patriot.
Col. Johnston has often tried his luck be
fore the people and has fared badly. His
chances this time are no better, fie will
run merely to be beaten. Hon. A. S.
Merrimon will speak at Cary next Satur
day. George Lane, a negro from Ra
leigh, was called on by the negroes. He
said he was no candidate, but appeared as
a representative of the Republican party,
that was a fight between the negro and the
white man, and that while he liked Gen.
Cox personally, he preferred that Mr. Deve-
reux 8nouid go to i;ongress oecause he
(Mr. Devereux) "had a nigger's feelings
and a Liberal's principles." General
Ransom's speech at Marion was capital.
The General has just-finished an extended
canvass in the west. He will next go into
the Cape Fear section, while Senator Vance
will be in the Albemarle section. Bennett.m
the meanwhile, will be in Robbins district.
The Liberal party in Beaufort county
is reported to be completely broken up.
W. F. Pool declared in a speech at Wash
ington a few days ago that he was a simon-
pure Republican, not a Liberal, and that
he did pot want anyone to vote for him
under the impression that he was a Liberal.
We alsb learn that the Republicans will
nominate a straightout Republican ticket
in Beaufort county. The Republicans
muet be badly scared. They have had a
committee, consisting of George C. Gor
ham. Judge Settle and Col. Canaday, to go
to New York and wait on the President,
asking him to express his approbation of
the Liberal movement. The President
yielded to the pressure, as might have been
expected. Raleigh News-Observer.

Raleigh News- Observer: Hon.
C. R. Thomas, of New Berne, has present
ed to the University Law School fifty-five
volumes. All of the books are valuable
standard works. The receipts for the
last cotton week were fairly heavy consid
ering the lateness of theseason.foritis fully
three weeks later than usual. They amount
ed to 1,676 bales against 2,441 bales for the
corresponding week last season, a decreaee
of 765 bales. The total receipts from Sep
tember 1st to date are 2,887 bales, against
6,905 bales to the same date last year, a de
crease of 4,518 bales. Mr. A. P.Yates,
a young man about 21 years of age, died of
typhoid fever at his home at Apex. He
had for two years been at school at Apex,
and entered Wake Forest College at the be

Charles Wesley Warren Turns Up
Again.
A letter was received by Postmaster
Brink, a day or two ago.from the editor of a
newspaper at Newyago, Michigan, enquir
ing into the history and antecedents of one
L. H. Copeland, who he says may proba
bly have been known here by the name of
Warren. The writer adds that it is re
ported there that Warren alias Copeland
was connected with some disreputable
transactions here, in which women were
the sufferers, and that the people there
wanted to know exactly ho,w the matter
stands with reference to Warren, so that
exact justice can be dealt out to him. It
is not known what our wandering friend
has been doing up in Michigan, but it is
probable the inquiries alluded to are only
the result of his previous record following
him to that remote section, as it did here.
Resigned Bis Position.
Mr. J. A. Springer who has been con
nected with the postoffice in this city, un
der Col. E. R. Brink, for the past fourteen
years, for the most of that time in the ca
pacity of Assistant Postmaster, served his
connection with it on the 1st inst., and will
hereafter devote his entire time and atten
tion to his coal and wood yard. As an
attache of the postoffice, Mr. Springer was
always an obliging and accommodating
official.

will visit us and comply with the rfquest
of the committee after Christmas, in the
early spring.
Sporting on tbe Decline.
One of our friends remarked to a promi
nent hardware merchant yesterday that
"hunting was not so coot in this vicinity as

sportsman referred to had been in the rice
fielda;all day and only brought home twelve
half starved coots.

commencing September 1st up to yesterday
footed up 12,493 bales, as against 18,627

The application of Howard Relief Fire
Engine Company for repairs to their En

A motion to refer the communication to
the Committee on Public Buildings was
lost.
The report of the Chief of the Fire De
partment was received and ordered on file
In regard to the building in lot in rear of
J. D. Steljes' saloon, reported by the Chief
of the Fire Department as dangerous, on
motion the Mayor was instructed to carry
out the ordinances of the city relating to
such cases.
A communication, relative to the old Poor
House being dangerous was referred to the
Chief of Police and Chief of Fire Depart
ment.
Alderman Chadbourn, from the special
committee on purchase of Market House,
made a report relative to the purchase of
the Wilmington Market House, which was
adopted, the price to be paid being $30,000.
The following protest was received and
read:
Wilmington, N. C, Sept. 4, 1882.
We hereby enter our protest against the
purchase of the Wilmington Market House
Company 8 property by this Board of Al
dermen, for the following reasons:
1st. We have been informed that one or
two members of this Board are pecuniarily
interested, either directly or indirectly, in
the nrooertv: which, if so. in our opinion.
would invalidate the purchase. Section 12
Apon arf nf tVio T (Ticlatu t-o nf tliia ft t n t n
entitled an "Act to Incorporate the Inhab
itants of the Town of Wilmington," reads
as follows: "Be it further enacted, that no
mayor or alderman shall directly or indi
rectly become a contractor lor worfc to be
done for the city of Wilmington, or be in
terested in the sale to the city of any arti
cles or property for the use of the city ; and
any person herein offending shall forfeit
and pay to the city two hundred dollars,
and moreover be deemed guilty of a misde
meanor." 2. That before a debt of this magnitude
is created, we believe the question should
be submitted to the qualified voters of the
city for their acceptance or rejection, and
to sustain us in this position we submit the
following clause in the Constitution of this
State:
Article VII, section 7: "No county, city,
town, or other municipal corporation shall
contract any debt, pledge its faith, or loan
its credit, nor shall any tax be levied, or
collected, by any officers of the same, ex
cept for the necessary expenses thereof, un
less by a vote of a majority of the qualified
voters therein."
3. The location of this property is such
that, in our opinion, it is objectionable to
most of the people of the city.
4. The price placed upon the property,
we believe, is far beyond its value.
Respectfully,
Jas. B. Huggins,
L. H. Bowden,
A. Alderman.
Wilmington, N. C, Oct. 2, 1882.
After a careful examination of the law
and the decisions of the Supreme Court,
January term, 1876, page 758, and January
term. 1874. page 14, I believe that the
Board of Aldermen have the right to pur
chase such property as may be necessary to
the wants and convenience of the citizens
of Wilmington without referring it to a
vote of the people. I concur in the com
plaints 3 and 4 of the protest, as to the lo
cation and price of said property.
W. L. Smith,
Mayor.
Alderman WortlTmoved that the Mayor
be directed to take the necessary steps to
wards completing the purchase of the
Market House and take possession of the
property. Adopted.
The report of the Hospital Committee
for the month of August was received.
City part of expenses $60. Report ordered
on file.
The Board then adjourned.
At a meeting of the Board of Audit and
Finance, held subsequent to the above, the
Board confirmed the action of the Board
of Aldermen in regard to the purchase of
the Market House on the terms proposed,
and Capt. W. R. Kenan was appointed a
committee to prepare the matter relating to
the purchase for publication.
TJnmailable matter.

A Stock Farm for Thoroughbred Cat
tle.
Mr. John F. Garrell is making prepara
tions to establish a stock farm at his "Sans
Souci," or Hill plantation, near this city,
which is said to be peculiarly adapted to the
purpose. Ills object is, we understand, to
introduce and keep on hand a full and
complete stock of gemiinc thoroughbreds.
such as the Alderney, Jersey, short horn
and Devon cattle, in order to supply what
ever demand may exist for pure stock.
He has a large acreage of excellent pastur
age, which he has kept in order with an
eye to the business upon which he is now
about to embark. He says if they
don't sell as rapidly as might reasonably be
expected they will pay expenses in the mat
ter of milk and butter which they will fur
nish. Mr. Garrell, in company with Judge
Russell, of this city, recently visited the fa
mous (Jhinchdale stock farm of Judire
Shields, in East Tennessee, the largest and
finest stock farm in that State, and were
much pleased and interested in what they
saw. He devotes about 600 acres to his
farm and has a large stock of thoroughbreds
on hand, which he sells at prices ranging
from $200 to $500 for calves (Jerseys) and
from $500 to $1,000 for grown cattle; many
of the milch cows giving sufficient milk to
yield fifteen or sixteen pounds of butter per
week.
Mr G. says, however, that as good stock
can be had in Pennsylvania at a consider
able reduction on Judge Shields' figures,
which are rather steep.
Mr. Garrell proposes to have his farm
supplied in time to enter fully upon the
business by the first of the ensuing January
and as there is said to be no other regular
stock farm in the State where only genuine
thoroughbreds are kept on hand, it is rea
sonable to suppose that he will meet with
success in his new and important venture.
The Public Scboola.
The public schools of this township were
opened yesterday. The attendance was
larger than usual ; every teacher was in her
place at 9 o'clock in the morning, and in one
hour the schools were under way. Great
interest is shown by both parents and pupils.
Education Is now within reach of every
child in the township. The teachers are
competent, while the means in the hands
of the school committees enable them to
offer eight months' schooling. All that is
now lacking is to be encouraged by the
presence of the citizens.
We visited also the Tileston Normal In
stitute, and found Miss Amy Bradley full of
trouble, trying to make room for over three
hundred new applicants- The building,
however, was not made of India rubber, and
reluctantly and with tears in her eyes, she
was compelled to turn them off literally in
droves. It was a pleasing sight to see the
ltttle ones so eager to obtain an education.
