The Legislature of Tennessee has ar ranged for a settlement of the State debt; a portion the State debt proper is to be funded in full, the balance at fifty cents on the dollar with 3 per cent, interest. Three ex-detectives in "Washington City have teen indicted for receiving stolen goods ; stolen bonds worth $14,000 and ex Sonator Christiancy'a jewelry, valfied at f5. 000. are part of the plunder The village of Hillestad. near Lund. Swe den, has been burned. Gilbert L- Crowell, President of the Empire Mining Company, is a defaulter to the amount of f 64 1.000 Judge Davis announces ' that he will resign the office of President of the Senate pro tem. ; indications are that Kdmnnds will be chosen as his successor; the Democratic Senators will offer no oppo sition. N.Y. markets: Money closed at 4 per ifDt. offered; cotton weak at 10 3 16 ,:5'0 7 16 cents; southern flour easier, with , moderate demand at $4 60?00; wheat, ungraded winter red $1 05$1 29; rosin rirm and quiet at f 1 651 70: .spirits tnr j t utine 5252$c. Captain Howgato is now winter - m Florida. n;itor David Davis will bt mar-ru-d near Fayetteville on the 8th of Marvh. The newly married couple will tlien start for California. (iov. Stephens is seriously sick it is -iid. He returned to Atlanta from S.ivannah and has heeu sick ?ver .ir.co. His friends are uneasy. Don Cameron, it is said, i sieic of playing the boss and will retire from the Senate. Without his powerful . !'qti-r.ce what will the Senate do ? There is a movement on foot to vivet in Washington a colossal statue t Martin Luther. It is proposed to ii.tvp the great German Reformer in hronze. Kev. Dr. Morgan Dix, of New "rk, is making some telling lec tures against the co-education of the M-xes as a principle. His lectures are making a stir. And uow ex-State Auditor Craw ford, of Arkansas, is short in his ac counts. But he does not propose to flee, but has given a mortgage on his real estate to make good the deficit. He asks until January 1, 1885 to pay nil that is due. Here is an item about a South Car olina cotton mill we find in the Charleston Aer dr Courier: "The Clifton Cotton Factory, in Spar tanburg county, has received an order for 200 bales of goods from the West and 1.500 hales of goods, or 1,200,000 yards of cloth, for shipment to China. It has recently ad ili d 1,538 spindles and 12 new cards.' It is in the North this time. His name is Crowell, and he only took 4641,000. He was President of the Empire Mining Company. He ain't an "aristocrat," like Polk, of the old panel, but he stole more than Polk, Vincent and all the other Southern defaulters combined. According to a correspondent of the Augusta Chronicle the word bo- Ifujt is of Georgia origin. He writes: "Willia-n B. Bogus was a Georgia land lottery Commissioner years ago, caught in rairality in connection with bis office. He waa an issuer of fraudulent land rights. It :is curious .that this obscure Georgia scamp should have furnished our vernacu lar with a genuine name for everything spurious and false." The Savannah News is not far ont of the way in the subjoined para graph. It remarks: "Southern Congressmen, espec.ally, hould turn a deaf ear to the bullying and rajolmg of such journals as affect to feel outraged at the bare proposal of a river :tnd harbor bill. These journals, if they speak for anybody, speak for people who have received so much Federal.bounty that .'hey are almost ashamed to ask for more." The Georgia Jfajor is published at Atlanta, Ga., by Small and Wil liams, at 2 a year. . It is eigh't-page and bright and humorous. Mr. Small is the "Old Si" of Georgia journal ism. No. 2 promises excellently. Among other good things it contains one of Judge Longstreet's very amusing "Georgia Scenes." President pro tem. Dayis-will re sign on the 3d of March. He says he does this "in view of the possible exigencies that might affect the pub lic service." This will allow his suc cessor to be chosen before the present Congress expires. This was the idea we presented some week or so ago. Mr. Davis clearly understands the situation, and bence bis resignation in time. It . is understood that he will be sucoeeded by Senator Ed mnnds, of Vsrmont. - .-;V"'' r V-1'.- ! ' . . . ' . 'i "'iV 'f VOL. XXXI.--NO. 131.

Shackelford to fieht a duel, because of some strictures the latter had made or tue former's management of the Postoffice. Rockingham Rocket: We have Ave very laree cotton factories ia and near Rockingham, which turn out a very laree quantity of cloth and warps, tien. Jos. E. Johnston said when here that our factories were as good as any he had seen in the Southern States. Laurinburg Exchange: Some of our citizens are getting up petitions to be presented before tue Legislature lor tne for mation of a new county out of tne lower portion of Richmond and the upper portion of Robeson. If you are successful, gentle men, let us suggest tne name Bennett. Tarboro Guide: With the peo pie there is a growing dissatisfaction with mese inferior uonrts, and wnnemu us, its administration is as able and the decis ions as just as in any county within the Stale, vet the svstem is regarded with dis- favor, and if permitted to do so our. opin - ' - ---- -i . c.- V ion is the people would vote to aboiisn tne court. Scotland Neck Commonwealth : Three of our most enterprising merchants, Messrs. Noah Biges, N. B. Josey and M. Hoffman, offer the following prizes to the farmers of the community: For the first bale of cotton brought to this market, a good silver watch; for the most lint cotton made on a ten acre plat in Palmyra, Cale donia, Roseneath, and Conocanary town ships, a suit of clothes worth $20. - Beaufort Telephone: We have in our town a colored man who is-as much of a prodigy as the veritable "Blind Tom." uisname lsacn layior, Dorn in uarteret i county, of parents who were slaves, is 33 ! years of age, never went to school in his life, and yet he can build a mill, repair a watch, tune a piano or print a newspaper. The most remarkable Rift he has, however. is the ability to repeat scripture, which he can do for hours at a time without making a mistake. Trov Star: That a law re stricting members in the introduction of bills is an absolute necessity. During the present session, Barley, of Mecklenburg, has, alone, introduced bills enough to keep the General Assembly busy for thirty days. Some provision should be made to save Legislature from consuming time on tne numerous little charters, amendments to charters, local options, relief for private in dividuals, etc. As it now is, each member feels that he must introduce at least one bill. Wilson Advance: The Cotton Factory at this place will soon be ready to j commence operations. Lvery habita ble house in Wilson we believe is occupied and the cry is still they come. There were, we are informed by Mr. W. E. Farm er, railroad agent. 18,916 bales of cotton shipped from this point during the year ending February 21st. Mr. S. W. Bar tholomew showed us the model of a very simple Seed Cotton Elevator and Distribu tor which was pronounced by good judges a very useful and valuable invention. Rockingham Spirit : The alarm of fire was sounded in town last Sunday night, about 3 o'clock A 31., which was occasioned by the burning of the residence of the venerable Dr. P. W. Stansill. Be fore the discovery the flames had made too much headway to admit of being arrested, the family having only time to escape with what clothing they had on, scarcely any thing in the way of furniture being saved. The fire originated in the dining or stove room, tne amount.oi loss or tne building lhe amount. of loss or tne building nH rnntent ia about fci 000 untfn which there was insurance of only $1,000. Statesville Landmark: One of the grand jurors for the Superior Court at 1 . i . - ti : a - I mis term was mr. xpuraim otrungo, ui .raiisiown lownsnip, concerning wnom a singular and interesting little incident may be told. Mr. Scroggs has'ndw burning on his hearth the same fire whieh he started wheu he went to housekeeping fifty years ago. From the day that fire was started to this it has never been permitted to go out. Summer and winter for these fifty years it has been replenished as occasion requires. From a roaring heap it has drooped, many a time, to a bed of smouldering coals, but it has never been permitted to turn into ashes Greensboro Patriot : The Gov ernor will continue to take his "hash" at the Yarboro. It is not the royal road to greatness. The protracted meeting at the Methodist Church is still going on. Quite a number have been converted, sev eral of whom joined the church yesterday. Eleven persons' joined the Presbyte rian church "yesterday. Rev. Mr. Darnel), of Durham, will assist Dr. Smith this week. So far there havd been 22 conversions. Raleigh letter: The bill for the sale of the State's interest in the Western North Car olina Railroad passed the House last night by almost a unanimous vote, ayes 93, nays 9. Those of the Western members .who had been its strongest oppose rs voted for it because, they said, they had all the se curities they could ask. "Old man Bruce, of Cherokee," actually arose and gave his vote id favor of the bill. Goldsboro Messenger : We re gret to learn that Mr. Jacob W. Avera, well known in this city, was last week re quired to enter into a bond for his appear ance at the Fedeial Court, on the charge of some mail irregularities. The Samn- son Light Infantry have ordered their uni forms. 8owe learn from the Clinton Cau casian of last week. A negro, named Caswell Green, was lodged in jail here last week, charged with . robbing the smoke house of Mr. Needham Crow, in Granthams township, of about 75 pounds of meat. r A very unseemly fight has been made at Washington upon Maj. Grant, the effi cient postmaster of this city, growing out of the projected removal of the office from the Humphrey House to the Opera House. The new pastor of the Presbyterian- congregation. Rev. John M. Rose, arrived here- Friday and preached at the Baptist church yesterday, morning and evening. x Raleigh News- Observer: An agreement has been executed between, the counsel for the plaintiff (the N.

That "great and good man," Willis Drake, the colored shoemaker, was before Mavor Smith yesterday morning on the J. . . . Charge of creating a disturbance at tne Front street deoot Mondav nieht. It seems that he came to the gate at about train time - A W and wanted to pass through, but was told by Mr. Hankins, the gate-keeper, that he could not, unless he procured a ticket. He insisted upon his rights in the premises and cursed and swore at such a rate that a col ored special policeman, Gilbert Holliday, was called upon to tako him away. Holli- day started with his prisoner, who resisted to the extent of his ability until he reached Red Cross street, when Sergeant Rob't Green came to the rescue and finally landed the Drake safely in the coop. At the con clusion of the testimony the defendant, who . is quite aesthetic in his style when occasion admits of it, made such an urgent appeal, his countenance beaming over with smiles meanwhile, that His Honor said he would let him off easy this time, and told the Clerk to enter judgment for $5 or tea days in the C.

Yesterday afternoon about 2 o'clock, En- gmeer Laurence Bissetfc, in charge of -a passenger engine on the Wilmington Weldon Railroad, was on his way from the machine shops of the W. A. W. Railroad to his dinner, and was crossing the track near the transfer pit, close to the eastern end of the passenger shed, and looking at an engine going down the track, when an other -shifting or yard . engine (No. 24) backed ont and struck him, knocking him down across the ties, when the tender and part of 'the engine ran - over him, crushing him horribly. The engineer of No. 24 did not see Mr. Bissett, and the first intimation ne baU that there had been an accident was in hearing the dying cry of the unfortunate man. Both of his feet were nearly ampu tated, besides which be was horribly bruised and mangled about the body,, and bis death must have been almost instantaneous. The remains were soon afterward re moved to his father's residence on Red Cross, between Front and Second streets. Mr . John Bi8Sett hs father, Master Ma- dmst of the W. fc W.
