MORNING EDITION. OJUTLINES. Andy Taylor, one of a gang which cap- 1. 11 red a railroad train in East Tennessee and murdered a sheriff and his deputy, was arrested at Emoona, Ks. Hitebue of the James gang, captured at Jonesboro, Tenn. Mayor Harrisoa, of Chicago, has ordered the polico to close up the dis reputable houses in certain portions of that city. The death of M. Brederman, an oil broker in Paris, caused a panic on the Produce Exchange of that city. A. L. Boulware, of Richmond. Va., has been appointed receiver for the Greenbrier White Sulphur Springs property. The t'.tal cotton crop in sight is six mil lion and a half bales. The P. O. De partment has pjaced D. E. Chamberlain, of A thole, Mass., aud the various firms he represents, on the black list. Jesse ('aniptxjll murdered William Saks and "wife near Decatur, Ala. A lire at Crisfield, Mo., burned sixteen houses ; loss $100,000. President Arthur arrived at Jacksonville, Fla., yesterday, and expects to remain until Tuesday; the Tallapoosa is at St. Augustine awaiting his arrival there. AH the prisoners confined in jail at Smith ville, N. C. es caped Friday night. Dillingham & Co , cotton brokers. New Orleans, have failed. Plaisted, 'he Bostou oarsman, is training at Lynchburg, Va. Judge killings, of the U. S. Court at New Orleans, is tired of the election fraud cases, and re fuses to try any more of them. N Y. markets: Money 46 per rent. ; cot ton steady at 10310c; southern flour fair ly active aud firm at $5 006 50; wheat, un graded white $1 05122i; corn, ungraded 5765c; rosin steady at $1 701 75; spirits turpentine quiet and firm at 48c. The Protectionists of Philadelphia have just given "Pig-Iron Kelley," a dinner. They are grateful for fa vors already received and for those in store. The correspondent of the New York Times, in Florida, writing up Arthur, says that in the journey to Florida "there were uo crowds any where north of Jacksonville, except at (ioklsboro, N. C, and at the lat ter place the President did not have time to acknowledge the boisterous demands that he should appear." Ex-Senator Eaton, of Connecticut, says he is not a candidate for the Speakership. A dispatch from New Haven in the N. Y. Times says: "Fie thinks that neither Carlisle, Randall, nor Blackburn will be Speaker, and that a d -irk horse will be chosen. It will depend, Mr. Eaton says, upon bargains about the composition of committees. These have not been made Itecause there aVe so many new Congressmen, who so far are unap proachable." Rev. J. E. Wilson, a colored Pre siding Elder of the Florence District, S. C, Methodist Conference, and a straight-out Republican, was post master at Florence. Tie has been turned out aud a white man named Tim Weston put in his -place. He is a defaulting county treasurer. And this is a specimen of Radical civil service reform and love for the colored voter. Henry D. McDaniel, Democratic nominee for Governor of Georgia, is a native of that State, a graduate of Mercer College, taking first honor, and a lawyer. He served in the late war, was severely wounded in the ab domen, the minnie ball being still in him, was captured and kept in prison the remainder of the war. As he is not a Major or a -Colonel, he must have been a "high private." tb:e city. NEW A QVEKTI 8B1HFNTS. Munson Mentor collars. D. A. Smitii Furniture. W. E. Davis & Son Bhad. J. I.

Only one case of drunk aud down for Mayor Hall's consideration yes terday morning. A lot of fish were condemned and sent out of the market by the health officers yesterday; After a night of easterly winds and cool weather, ' the weather yesterday was mild and pleasant again. - At last accounts Mr. Jos. A. W orth, of Fayetteville, who has been very sick, was considered much better. The streets and alleys in the lower part of the city got a pretty thorouch washing from the hydrants yesterday. The Wilmington Light Infantry Company will drill every Thursday night for the next three weeks, weather permit ting. There will be no German ser vices in St. Paul's Evangelical Lutheran church this morning, as previously an nounced. We are requested to state that thS Fifth Street M. E. church will be occu pied to-day by ministers of the Presbytery. An important meeting of the Board of County Commissioners is called by Chairman Bagg for to-morrow afternoon at 2:30 o'clock. -- The new machine shops of the Wilmington Weldon Railroad are nearly sufficiently advanced to receive the roof. They will constitute an immene struct ure. Owing to a misapprehension we J were not furnished with a full list of the Magistrates, ' old and new inclusive, as we thougLt. We will publish a correct list on Tuesday. The store No. 8, on North Water street, formerly occupied by Messrs.

Mrs. Harry "Webb has sent to the Star office a vegetable curiosity a cu cumber about a foot and a half in length, freshly plucked from the vine. It was grown under glass at the residence of Mrs. Webb in this city. We hope Father Ryan will be greeted by a good house Tuesday night. The prospect so far is very favorable, as tickets are being taken very fast. It is only once in a lifetime that one gets a chance to listen to such a man as Father' Ryan. The large brick store on North Water street, occupied by Mr. R. W. Hicks, is being put in repair. One corner of the ' building had settled considerably, causing the structure to crack and bulge at that particular spot, so that the whole of that corner of the building had to be taken down and replaced. We learn that the work on the Wilmington, Wrightsville and Onslow Railroad is being pushed steadily on, and it is expected that the road will be graded to the mouth of Bradley's Creek in twenty days, should the weather permit. The rails and cross-ties will soon be here, we are informed, and will be laid as quickly as possible. Dr. Hoge'a Lecture "Tent Life In tne East' and "Modern Chivalry."

WILMINGTON PRESBYTERY Proceedings of fourth Day. The Treasurer was directed to pay the Commissioners to the General Assembly $50 each to defray their expenses in going and returning from the General Assembly, Presbytery granted request of Moore's Creek Church to employ Bev. Colin Shaw, and of Clinton and Mt. Olive churches to employ Rev. B. F. Marable. A commission was appointed to install Rev. A. McPadyen as pastor of Mt. Ho- reb Church, viz: Rev. C. M. Payne to pre side and propound the constitutional ques tions ; Rev. J. S. Black to charge the pas tor; and Rev. A. Kirkland to charge the people. Rev. J. M. Rose and Rev. S. H. Isler, with Ruling Elder T.ll Hyman, were ap pointed a committee to prepare a manual for the Presbytery. The Stated Clerk was directed to write to Rev. D. B. Black expressing the sympa thy of the Presbytery for him in his illness. Report on Systematic Benevolence was adopted and a copy ordered to be sent to the General Assembly. Various reports were received and dis posed of. The most interesting discussion was probably on Education. T he reports of Evangelists were highly interesting and encouraging. The prospect of religion in the Presby tery is decidedly more hopeful. Attempted Kraape or a Prisoner. Thomas Jefferson, the colored youth who was sentenced Friday morning to twenty days' confinement in the city prison for acting disorderly at the depot of the W. & W. Railroad, made a desperate effort at escape yesterday morning. It seems the janitor opened the prison door about 7 o'clock to allow the prisoners to receive their breakfast, when Jefferson, with a bucket in his hand, passed out at the door, at one side of which the janitor was stand ing, with the ostensible purpose of getting a bucket of water from the pump in the passage, but after taking a few steps he suddenly dropped the bucket and darted for the door leading into the City Hall yard. The janitor followed in hot pursuit and chased the fugitive out of the yard and down Third street to Miss Hart's school house, between Princess and Market streets, when the. boy, finding himself about to be overhauled, sprung nimbly over the fence and took refuge under the school house. The pursuer was right at his heels, and, before he could stow himself away so as to conceal his whereabouts, the iron grip of the janitor was upon him. He offered no resistance realizing the absurdity of the attempt and was marched quietly back to his quarters. A Book For All. We have received from the publishers one of the most valuable works in print "Gaskell's Compendium of Forms." Edu cational, Social. Legal and Commercial. It contains more valuable information on all practical subjects than any work it has been our pleasure to examine. The sale of this work-in Raleigh, Dur ham, Winston, Ashcville, and points in Virginia, has exceeded that of any work ever offered to the public. Prof. L. H. Roberts, general agent for West Virginia, Virginia, North Carolina, and Florida, is having wonderful success everywhere. The work' is highly recom mended by the finest bankers, book-keepers and business men of the country. No one can afford to be without a copy of this valuable Work. m m Wife Beating. The house of John Garrason, colored, near the City Hospital grounds, was the scene on Thursday night last of an exciting episode, originating from certain "delicate attentions" on his part towards the wife of his bosom. In other words she gave him some "eass," and he beat her until hercrie of "murder" and "help" alarmed the entire neighborhood and made the denizens of the locality think that there was really a foul murder being committed in their midst. Garrason was subsequently arrested, and yesterday morning the case was heard by Justice Millis, who required the -defendant to pay a fine of $10 and the costs, in default of which he was commit ted to the sheriff. Serious Sickness or a Wilmington La dy fa Savannab. Wo regret to learn that intelligence was received here Friday evening of the serious illness, at Savannah. Georgia, of Mrs. R. B. Wood, of this city. Her husband, Mr. R. B. Wood, Sr., and her son, Dr. Thomas F. Wood, left for Savannah Friday night; Mr. Wood himself getting up out of a sick bed to go the side of his afflicted wife. We learn that Mrs. Wood is afflicted with pneumonia. We hope her sickness may not prove as serious as at first supposed. Tne Rebate Queries Answered. A correspondent at Laurel Hill, N. C, writes: "Will the reduction of eight cents per pound tax on tobacco be allowed merchants who have unbroken packages on hand May the 1st t If so, will the rebate be made in currency or tobacco stamps?" To the first qsery we answer, yes. To the second: Either currency or stamps. (80 says the U. S. Commissioner herd. ) Festival and Blum Party. The ladies of the Lutheran Church have decided to give an ice cream and strawberry festival and "mum party" next Wednesday night at the City Hall. They will also serve supper and will have all things in readiness to wait upon, the public from 7 o'clock on. Their advertisement appears elsewhere.

Wilmington, N. C, June 16th, 1882. We, the Executive Board of the Baptist State Convention of North Carolina, with the Executive Board of the Kenaos ville Association, met this morning at 11.80 o'clock, and after a candid and oraverfnl cnn1nrAt.inn nt thA hnM ratnut Rev. A. M. Conway, and the testimony of the members of the Flrat Baptist Church, Wilmington, unanimously aeoiaea mat tne said charges were fully sustained: and acooi rdlng to the evidence se of administration in Rev. A. M. Conway's course tne ousinese meetings of said church is wholly unsoriDtural and founded nnon no Bantlst nrinci- ples. and that he has caused members to be ex pelled contrary to Baptist usage, and thereby led the church into error and confusion, and caused said church to tee oat of Gospel order. Aad we do hereby unanimously ana mhesttattngly eon-: uemn sucn a course 01 administration as un scriptural and a departure from BaDtist faith. We furthermore recommend and advise the said First Baptist Church of Wilmington as fol lows: 1. That the members and officers ofsaldchuroh who have been unlawfully expelled, be recog- mzea as mem Ders ana officers or good standing in said church. 2. That the said church, in order that it mav be retained and reootmized in the Association and Convention, dismiss Rev. A. M. Conway as pastor 01 saia cnurcn. 3. And that we do also herebv withdraw the band of fellowship from Rev. A. M. Conwav and said First Baptist church untill said church shall so reform as to be recognized by the sister Baptist uuurcnes.
