The Austrian government is devising measures (.t relief for the sufferers by a flood in the Tyrol ; the damage is estimated at 15,000, - oho florins. The work of the Tariff Commission is about completed; it is thought that no important change in the eist'm tariff will be recommended. A steamer from Japan for Bremen is re ported lost; twenty-two persons were drowned. The north bound fast mail train on the Wilmington & Weldon Kail road was detained by an accident caused by running over a cow; no one was injured; the mail and baggage cars were damaged.

Abbey s Park Theatre, at New York, was burned last night; none of the actors was in the building; two, men were badly in jured: Mrs. Langtry's costumes and the -venery for "the Unequal Match" in which -he was to have appeared was destroyed; nothing was saved.

"When I get my new personal identity together and in a working shape, I intend to study theology somewhere, though in my present confusion I cannot yet see whether I shall study at Andover or Boston. New Haven is nearer, but Dr. Smyth has been settled tnere, and 1 fear laxity of doc trine in his neighborhood. Princeton is not far south of me, but. Dr. McCosh is a Christian evolutionist, and it would be folly, after what I have suffered, to come under the malarial influences of that phi losophy. On the whole, I incline to study at Park Street. But wherever I may go I am determined before 1 die to hnd a the ology which will pass muster at Bangor, at Andover, at Cambridge, at New Haven, at .Princeton, at Alleghany, at Oberlin, at Chi cago and at fart Btreet then 1 shall wil lingly die." W. D. Howells is one of the most gifted writers that America has pro duced. But like so many other men of parts he cannot write poetry. Carlyle, a great genius with an essen tially poetical mind, failed to throw his thoughts into verse. Bulwer, even, wto wrote some clever lines, was not regarded as successful in po- etry. George Eliot, supreme genius J ' r o as she was, failed to win a high place as a poet, which she so much covet ed. Poets are born, not made. Put that in your hat. Ten thousand thousand men can rhyme. Rebel or patriot? Well, heads or tails! Define the terms, and this is how it reads : A rebel is a patriot who fails: A patriot is a rebel who succeeds. London Eclio. This is the old couplet reset. In stead of two it is beaten out into four lines. The old reads thus : "Treason doth never prosper: What's the reason? vv hy, when it prospers, men don t call it treason." The old is better. There is a revolt among the colored voters against the Mon'srrel Combina tion. Boss Mott is being foiled in some of his calculations. It is now certain that the Combination will lose more true Republican votes than they will gain Democratic. THE STATE CAMPAIGN. We had the pleasure of meetiDg Capt. Jim Ilolman, of Person county, in town last week. He reports Person solid for the Democracy. Cameron, Evans and Rich mond will carry the county by a large ma jority. DurJiam Recorder. We have reliable news from Forsyth county, and it is to the effect that Robbins and the Democratic county ticket will sweep the county. The Wheeler-Goslin Republicans are waging a merciless war on the Everittgang, and swear in their wrath to annihilate him. Greensboro Patriot. The report that the Radical machine has pledges from President Arthur to oust as many postmasters as possible in North Car olina, and fill their places with so-called Liberals, seems true. Both the stalwarts and Democrats have to give place to tha Liberals so-called. -Ralevjh Farmer Mechanic. The Messenger, the hitherto recognized organ of the colored people of Charlotte and Mecklenburg, will appear to-day declar ing itself opposed to the coalition move ment, tooth and toe-nail. It says, in effect, that the colored people have reason to sup pose that those "Liberals" who have prov ed themselves traitors to the Democratic party will also prove traitors to the colored people. Charlotte Journal. Col. D. A. Jenkins says that the State will go Democratic next Tuesday week by from 10,000 to 30,000, and says that a num ber of other prominent Republicans who arc in positions to know, say that it will be by a majority of "from 30,000 to 50,000. The indications are that the approaching election will be one of the grandest victo ries ever achieved by the Democratic party in North Carolina. -Gastonia Gazette, We understand that Gen. Leach, in a conversation with a gentleman of this place travelling on the cars, conceded that Kob bins will be elected, and that the Democrats would not lose a Congressman in the State. J. M. Leach, it is said, has put him self on his good behavior in his speeches of late. So much for the rasping he got from the press on his ranting. The fact is, iie thought at the first that he was going to drive the whole State before him into the Republican party pell-mell; but now he sees that the people don't drive worth a cent. Salisbury Watchman. The Wilmington Democrats are evidently lukewarm chaps. Ransom and Vance have . both been sent thereto stir them up. Vance spoke on Thursday night and Ransom on Fridav night. - Kinston, Oct. 26, 1882. Messrs. Editors: "Many Republicans," who recently put in the field a genuine and able Republican ticket, in opposition to the mongrel half-breeds, styling themselves the Regular Republicans, wish to say that the carddf R. W. King,. Esq., published in Tuesday's Journal, declining to be a candi date, will not change the determination of his friends to elect him. New Berne Jour nal. The colored people in this section seem to be waking up to the fraud being perpe trated upon them in the so-caHed Liberal movement. The hatchers-up of that move ment counted upon a solid colored vote and upon this they based their calculations of success. The rally at Pineville yes terday evening was a grand success, about five hundred people being present. Speeches were made by Messrs. Bailey, Dowd, Wad dell, John G. Potts, also by Gray Toole and' John Henderson, colored, who ad dressed their remarks especially to the colored voters, and were listened to with marked attention. Cliarhtte Observer. DownJ with the party that applies to Judge Bond to appoint Federal overseers over our State poll holders ! The pros pects in Wake are very fine. The Demo crats expect to sweep the county.

Raleigh News-Observer: We re gret to learn that Maj. Jesse J. Yeates.who has long been an invalid, has sunered so much from the ravages of disease that his mind became seriously affected, and he was necessarily removed to an insane asylum.

The question has oiten been discussed in the papers of this city, and we think two things have been definitely settled : First, that Newbern is the legal name of the city; and. second, that it was named after Berne in Switzerland, and the eternal fitness of things would demand the name of NewBerne. The hull of the new steamer Elm City, built at Graves' ship yard, Norfolk, arrived here last week, and is now on the railway at Carroll's shipyard, south side of basin. The Elm City is 120 feet long, 20 feet beam. 6 feet depth of hold, and is designed for the freight and passenger trade between New Berne. N.

Prisoners Preparing; Tor a Break from the County Jail. A number of prisoners in the county jail made an attempt to escape yesterday. The jailor, Daniel Howard, noticed some brickdust and mortar falling down the chimney into the fire-place in one of his rooms, and went into the jail to see what was the matter, when he found that the prisoners had succeeded in making a small opening through an inner wall and which lacked only about the width of a brick of penetrating to the hollow of the chimney, with an opening in the dwelling. He was just in time to frustrate the attempt of the prisoners, who are mostly from Pen der county, and will take steps to prevent any future effort looking to the same end. Armstrong's Minstrels. This troupe performed last night before a well filled house and were well received. The performance throughout was first rate, ranking these minstrels with the best that have ever appeared here. The singing was very good and the jokes fresh and new. The Powell brothers' "first venture on roller skates" was one of the most enjoyable fea tures of the evening; Mr. Ed. Meale's per formance on two cornets at once was very remarkable, the music being wonderfully soft and sweet; the speech of "Senator Frank Bell" was received with uproarious applause; and the singing of the Monumen tal Quartette was heartily encored. Oak Grove Cemetery. The pauper's cemetery (now known by the name of Oak Grove Cemetery;, nest ling as it does in the midst of a grove of scrubby oaks, a short distance beyond the southeastern limits of the city, is a big im provement as compared with its former condition.

In justice to Senator Vance and the Democratic party, I desire to state the facts regarding the joint discussion between Z. B. Vance and Hon. D. L. Russell, proposed for last I hursday night, the 26th of October. On the 19th of OctobeT Capt. E. J. Pen- nypacker asked me if an arrangement could be made for a joint discussion betweenVance and Russell, stating at the same time that he was not authorized to make the request, but would see the proper authorities and have it made. I told him that if S. II. Manning, Chairman of the Republican Executive Committee, would send me such a request over his own signature, tn due season to per mit me to make arrangements, and not on the night of the proposed discussion, as had been done in the Fifth Ward ease, I would accept the proposition and arrange according; ly. 1 saw Uapt. 1'ennypacker two days later (on the alst, and he again pro mised to have the "request sent to me. 1 waited until Wednesday night (25th), when, not hearing from Manning, or any one else, in regard to the joint discussion, I made up the programme for our proces sion for Vance on Thursday night At 5 o'clock on Thursday evening Dan'l Howard handed me a communication which I pub lish below. Knowing that the Republican Executive Committee had had the matter under consideration for a week, and having made an especial request of Capt. Penny packer that the arrangement should not be deferred until the last minute, I considered their course in withholding their request so discourteous as to make a written reply un necessary, and merely told Howard that I had no reply to make.
