Blaine sent frrcetincr to the regular straight-out Republicans in Virginia ami tells them to stick to their or ganization. What word docs he send to the true-blues of the Old North State ? A year or so ago the Northern pa pers reported Mrs. Abraham Lincoln as very poor.

The New York Times,Rep., thinks that, the next House will be Demo cratic and probably the next Senate vill he anti-Republican.

If this had not Deen aone the probability is the Democrats would have had three others. We do not attach the greatest im portance to everything sent from Raleigh to the New York Times. A special of the 16th professes to give the reason why Hubbs withdrew. It says there was danger of a loss to the State ticket from "swapping" if both O'llara and Hubbs continued in the field. Here follows what will probably be news to the gentleman named. It savs: "It was also understood that the Demo crats had already had printed in Washing ton tickets with the name on them of Henry G.Williams.of Wilson county.f or Congress, and that these tickets were to be in the hands of trusty men on election day, and were to be voted by every Democrat who came to the polls. The vote in that case between the two Republican candidates would have been so close that Willliams would have, been elected." O'Hara would have beaten Hubbs, and that had more to do with the backing down than anything else, we have no doubt. Henry Ward Beechcr has an agent who arranges his lectures when he goes out to gather in tiie spoils. His name is Pond, and from his own account he must be the very slough of de-Pond about which we read in Bunyan's immortal Pilgrimage. Pond sought a matrimonial alliance and now he seeks a release.

Evans, Esq., the venerable editor of the Milton Chronicle and Demo cratic nominee for the Senate, is unable by reason of severe domestic affliction to make a canvass of the District. He has issued a spirited address to the voters. Give him a rousing vote. He is too honest to bo bought. Wnshino-ton (N. CA letter of the 13th in the Raleigh Observer: Gov.

La- tham's election is sure. The Democratic party of Stokes was nnv(,,in h-tter trim than at nresent. The nrosnects are the Democratic ticket will be elected by an increased majority. Gov. Jarvis evidently has his eye on the Senator ship. His friends are being nominated right and left for the Legislature. The fight between the Straightouts and the Coalitionists is waxing-warmer daily; and the chances of Dockery and Folk are growing beautifully less. We cannot speak of distant localities, but cook wili lead ' York in Jiowan, Yadkin and Forsyth. Cook, indeed is the man to fear.'

The Coalitionists in Guilford are bent on having some fun if they do no more. 1 heir resolutions en dorsing Isaac Young for United States Sen ator were really witty. Winston Leader. Col. Wm. Johnston, it is said, ran in his earlier days for the Legislature "from Lincoln county and Was elected. We next hear of him as the secession candidate for Governor against Zeb. Vance, the people's candidate. No one has been able yet to compute the exact majority by which the Colonel was left at home. Yor some years he ran the C.'C. and A., the Hamburg. and the A, T. and O. railroads, until the stockholders of said roads elected others in his stead. He ran for the State Conven tion against Dr. Kerr, Republican, and was badly beaten. He was elected Mayor of Charlotte once, over Wm. ir. Davidson and once over F. A. McNlneh. He was de feated for Maj'or by R. B. Smith. He was defeated before the Congressional Nomina ting Convention by Walter L. Steele. He was defeated two years later at the same con vention by the same man: was defeated two years later before the same convention by Maior C. Dowd. He was defeated for the presidency of the Commercial Bank by Col. Frank Coxe. He was defeated a year later by K. M. White for the same office. He was defeated at the last election for Mayor by F. S. DeWolfe, and he will be defeated again this year for Congress by Major Dowd. He may well be termed the greatest runner and poorest catcher North Carolina has ever known. Charlotte Jour nal.

Mary Lewis, colored, charged with as sault and battery on Walter Scott, a color ed boy, who ought to have been treated better in consideration of his name, if for nothing less, was required to pay the costs on a suspension of judgment. Cleaning Up Deserters. On last Monday a week ago the captain of one of the vessels in port went to Justice Gardner and complained that three of his men had deserted and could not be found. The necessary steps were immediately taken to secure their arrest and incarceration, and bince that time as many as fourteen sailors have been arrested and committed to the county jail, under warrants issued by Jus tice Gardner; two being taken yesterday morning. There is now, we understand, not a single deserter at large in this city. Big Crops. Mr. T. J. Cowan, formerly of this city, but now a resident of Hamlet, informs us that he never saw such crops as arc to be found all through the country in that sec tion.

Literary Treats In Store for 17s. Our readers will be glad to learn that Dr. J. J. Lafferty, the scholarly editor of the Richmond Christian Advocate, whose repu tation for ability is national, and whose genuine wit glows and scintillates in every line he writes and in every sentence he ut ters, will deliver two lectures here between the 6th and 11th of November. The first in order, we understand, will be on the subject of "Old Times and New," than which it would be difficult to find a theme more fruitful of pleasant and entertaining reflections; and the second will be de voted to a subject no less attrac tive and which he has designated "Ele ments of success Luck. Pluck and Policy." There was a time when Wilmington had a reputation which was not calculated to inspire that confidence of success which i3 so encouraging to the average lecturer. Is it any wonder that a great change has been wrought among our people in this re spect, when wc come to consider the great improvement in these latter years in the quality of fare which has been presented to tempt our literary appetites ? It is not known definitely under what auspices the lectures will be delivered. We can only say that Dr. Lafferty has signified his intention in a private letter to a ecntlc man of this city, to visit us for that pur pose between the dates mentioned. Death of an Aged Lady.

Some of the crew, we learn, have shipped on the steamship Regulator.
