Mrs. Myra Clark Gaines gets judgment against the city of New Or leans for $1,925,667. The cocking main at Raleigh, N. C, was won by .the Halifax birds; the participants were bound over to court. Sixty lives were lost by the burning of the steamer Grappler, plying between Puget Sound and Alaska. The cocking main between New York and Philadelphia, fought at Norfolk, Va., was a draw. New York markets: Money 54 per cent. ; cotton steady at 1010c; southern flour stronger and fair ly active at $4 405 30; wheat, ungraded red $1 021 24; corn, ungraded 60g67ic; rosin firm; spirits turpentine dullat43f 43c. Five thousand miners at Pittsburg, Penn., have quit work. One of the Star Route lawyers only consumed seven days with his "chin music. " The interest in the Langtry in New York is unabated. On Monday night there was no vacant standing room. The Northern dailies are groaning j-ist at this time under the immense weight of base ball Jiteraturt' The games have begun. W notice that Rev. Dr. Hoge is to repeat his elegant and eloquent leisure on "Modern Chivalry" in his own city, Richmond. There is a Western boom in favor of Richard. W. Townshend of Illi nois, for the Democratic nomination for the Vice Presidency. And now even Major Byrne says that he has reason for suspecting the Rossa of foul play, and that he and his set are actually in the pay of the English. The reduction on tobaceo went in to effect on 1st inst., and the move ments in tobacco since then have been very great greater than were ever known. A hard critic says of the Langtry that "her acting has no style and her style lias no acting." But Freddie likes her style of acting and that is emngh for him. Mrs. May R. Owen has just been graduated in modicine at the Wo men's Medical College in Baltimore. She is the first. May she have a good practice and be Owen to no man. John Logan has a ranch in Mexico consisting of eighty thousand acres and nine thousand head of cattle. John says he means to make a hard fight for the Republican nomination. If illiteracy should be trumps John would win. The Richmond State has this hard saying for Randall: "He is the leader of the expediency men, the apostle of that political faith which teaches the false and fatal doctrine that the -way to secure success is to favor some of the views of each side at one and the same .time." Now you see him and now you lonTt see him a veritable "little Joker." There are at this time among the -daily Democratic papers in the South some dozen or more that are as good Protection papers 'as Jtbe Boston or Philadelphia Republican papers, -and the number is increasimz. The last we have noticed is the Memphis Av rfancfie which gays the tariff of the last session is good enough, and that the Democrats should stand by -it and not molest it. That iaitost what the itepubhean papers say. 1 Can't we induce the Stab to at least spell Randall with a big Rt Does that- paper oppose Randall because he favors our to bacco growers, or because he favors rice cultivation? TFt'?ion Leader. 1 'We always spell it with an R when the gentleman is mentioned. The Stab: opposes him because he is for a tariff for Protection or is suspected of being in .favor of it. The tab prefers Cox or Carlisle or any man, who is not in favor of tbe present burdensome, unequal and unjust tar iff to a man of either doubtful princi ples or who is in high favor with Protectionists. There is not one Re-. publican High Tariff paper in the North that does not favor Randall. Why is this? The Philadelphia TSmes of Wed nesday thinks that - Rand all will be "returned to the Speakership and because, what think you ? Because this Protectionist organ says "the Democratic sentiment of the country, North and South, has asserted itself unmistakably against the Tariff for revenue only folly." In other words, because Randall is for a tariff for Protection and the Democratic party is for a tariff for Protection. If that is so then it is easy to see that the Republicans can carry the country again for they are the old tried Pro tection party. We hear the name of Rev. Dr. Samuel Lander,of South Carolina,fa- vorably mentioned as the best man or the Presidency of Trinity Col ege. He is a native of Lincoln county, this State, is a scholar, and has been very successful in managing a large female school. In fact he is overrun. From what we. can learn the trustees might do a very great deal worse than by selecting this em inent educator. Spirits Turpentine. Asheboro Courier : The rain of last week was fearfully and dreadfully disastrous to property in this county. There is a colored woman in this place who is the mother of 28 children. Her grand children have not been counted. Charlotte Journal-Observer : Constable King yesterday brought a colored man named Win. Kearns to town in irons and lodged him in Jail on a charge of hav ing burned the grist mill, saw mill and cotton gin of Mr. w. B. Parks, near Hope well, about a month ago. Raleigh Recorder: Rev? Dr. Pritchard has been quite sick. Rev. E. L. Davis is seventy-one years old, has preached tbe gospel for fifty-two years, and baptized about three thousand persons. We understand an effort is being made to erect a monument over the grave of the lamented and honored Dr. Wingate. Let it be done by all means. Elizabeth City Falcon: We learn that some of our truckers have al ready sold their prospective potato crops. The price as we hear it, is $2.25 per barrel, delivered in the field. Our farmers are very much discouraged over the ugly weather we have naa ior some ume past. Work has been retarded very much, and it is feared that crops have been seriously damaged. We second the motion of the Journal-Observer that the capital be re moved. As an humble backwoods Caroli nian we are heartily ashamed of our red faced and dirty-streeted capital. -Asheboro Courier. (A newspaper man from a State south of us was in our office a few days ago and he .said Raleigh was the hand somest town of its size he had ever seen. Stab.) ? Winston Leader: Mr. O. M. Nelson died in Nevada, Mo., recently. He was a native of North Carolina. Dr. Silas Westmoreland died near Dalton on the 22d, in the 49th year of his age. He was well known in this section, naving practiced medicine in this place before the war, and representing Stokes county in the Legislature at 'its close. He at one time edited the Carolina Statesman, a Whig pa per published in this place. His funeral Was attenaea OJ a large cuueourse ui uis fellow-citizens. Greensboro Patriot: The pres ent prospect is that we are to have a good crop of wheat this year, even if it is not a superior one. Capt. Hugh Peters, agent of the Heck coal mine in East Ten nessee, sold last week in Reidsville and Danville 500 tons of coal. Oldham's two editorials on the two elements in the Democratic party would pass for phunny literature. We advise Oldham to "go West. The tobacco manufacturers of Winston have employed through their agent here, four thousand hands foi the season. , Elizabeth City Economist The farmers of Pasquotank met in the court house on the 28th ult. to organize a club in the interest of agriculture. A most pleasant party of ladies and gentlemen ac companied Governer and Mrs. Vance to the Croatan fisheries on Friday. Pasquo tank jottings: Farmers behind at least a month ; will not be as much cotton planted in this neighborhood this season as last; crops a little more diversified than f ormerlyj smaller crops and more "intense farming," is now the watchword of some of us. N. C. Presbyterian: Mr. R. T. McCain informs us that the church at Tir zah, in Bethel Presbytery has called Rev. W. O. White. They are building a fine parsonage on the church grounds. - Dr. John S.

He had been a sufferer for a long time, having been stricken with paralysis several months agx He had been in the ministry for thirty-five years and was widely and very favorably knon in the West and Southwest where i he had chiefly labored.

No trial will be had until the result of Mr. Haynes' injuries is ascer tained. - The Cocking Main between Halifax and Alamance began yesterday, at the State fair grounds. The attendance was quite large, much, larger than was ex pected. Halifax won every fight. Tbe work which has for some time been engaging the attention of CoL Saunders as one of the trustees of the library, is very important to the people of North Carolina. That it will be well executed goes without saying. Aside from the interest that - Such investigations ordinarily inspire, Col. Saun ders is peculiarly drawn to the work, just as the gifted Murphy, Hawks and the la mented Swain were in the generation that has passed away. Twice before this work has been undertaken, but it has been re served for the persistent and painstaking Saunders to put it in train of accomplish ment. The plan proposes the publication of so much of the colonial records as now are beyond the reach of the ordinary citizen. TIHIZE CITY. NEW AOVERTISEMBNTS. Lock Box 413 Personal.

A full attendance of the Con federate Survivors' Relief Association is re quired at a meeting to be held in the City Court Room this evening, at 8 o'clock. The deaths in this city during the month of April, as we learn from Dr. F. W. Potter, Superintendent of Health, numbered 25, of which 7 were white and 18 colored. A sailor by the name of John An dersen, a deserter from the Norwegian barque ,'JShlus, was arrested yesterday and committed fora hearing before Jnstice Gardner to-day. ' The New , Berne - Journal of Wednesday says: The speech delivered by Hon. D. K. McRae on the occasion of planting a tree, to the memory of Judge Gaston' was a. masterpiece of eloquence. The language was chaste and beautiful and the thoughts sublime. An Jneldewt of One Archb!hop VUlt. There .was one pleasant little . incident connected with the visit of the Catholic dignitaries to this city the past week which did not come , to ourtnowledge until yes terday. The Sunday school children of St. Thomas' Catholic Church, headed by the Misses McGarrity and Miss Bettie Price, waited upon Archbishop Gibbons,at the residence of Mr. F. W feerchner, and presented him with a tray of beautif ul flowers. The distinguished prelate was both pleased and touched at the sweet tes timonial from the little .ones, and tendered his acknowledgments in words which fell very pleasantly upon the ears of the chil dren, and will long1 be treasured uphy them. ' , . By the way, we were in error as to the time Archbishop j Gibbons and Bishop Northrppt left for Baltimore. They took the train on Wednesday morning, having spent Tuesday .on. the .Sound. - - Peatb 4CX$r.iWaa. B Giles. . The sad dtT!Shi devolves upon us of. if announcing Che death of another prominent and valuable citizen, Mr. Wflliam B.1 Cftles, who departed this life yesterday morning, at 0 o'clock, at his residence on Wrisftis vflle Sound, aged 71 years. ' l&Xi Giles r was a native of W flmington, and with V slight interregnum of a few years his life wis passed in this Htyr lat terly, however, at his place on the Sound, about eight miles from .the .city. In early life he entered the counting house of Lazu rus Whitmano, one of the most prominent commission houses at that time in Wilming ton, and it was there that he imbibed those principles of commercial probity for which he was so distinguished. Some years af terwards, in connection with Mr. Richard Bradley, he engaged in the steam saw mill and turpentine distilling business, under the firm name of Wm. B Giles & Co, in which they were very successjui. Ia 18fc , the firm of which he. ws the bfad removed to Savannah, Ga., where they erected one of the most valuable steam saw mills in the Southern country," commanding an exten sive and lucrative business. He continued to reside in Savannah until the breaking W'of the war,, when he returned to his native place to pass the remainder of his days in the peaceful pursuits of agriculture amidst the scenes and the friends of his youth. Mr. Giles was distinguished for great en. ergy, industry and unimpeachable integrity, and he went to the business of life with a resolution that overcame all obstacles and a sagacious judgment that crowned his ef forts with success. He never embarked upon the stormy sea of politics, preferring the quiet and the independence of a private station, and while others . sought fame in public positions he found his happiness in the faithful discharge of the every day duties of life and in the cultivation of those domestic virtues which adorn and beautify our nature. In tegritywas one of the distinguishing fea tures in his character, and duty the crown ing principle of his actions. Believing that there was no true honor save in virtue, he illustrated hfs creed by his own conduct and practice, and in early life clad himself in the humble robes of the true Christian, and died as he had lived in that blessed faith which he had embraced in the early days of his manhood. For many years a communicant of the Episcopal Church, he ever manifested a deep interest in its pros perity, and contributed snerotisly to its support and extension. In his domestic relations he was kind, considerate and af fectionate, gentle and forbearing to the faults of others, and striving to live up to that golden rule "to do unto others as you would have them do unto you." To the poor in his immediate neighborhood his death i an irreparable calamity. He never turned a deaf ear to their necessities, nor did he wait tor suppliants to present their claims, but sought them out and ministered freely to their wants and necessities. To those who were able to labor he gave employment to tbe weak and infirm the means of sup port medicines to the sick and comforted the dying with words of consolation and of hope. He will be sadly missed, for he "vis ited the fatherless and afflicted in their dis tress, not seeking the praise of men, but striving only to "do justly, to love mercy and to walk humbly with his God." A good man has gone to his rest, but his mem ory will long be affectionately cherished by a large circle of friends and relatives. The funeral will take place at the Sound Chapel this (Friday) afternoon, at 4.80 o'clock. Craxy on Religion. A colored woman, whose name we did not ascertain, who was evidently complete ly demented on the subject of religion, was going about the city yesterday proclaiming with a loud voice and wild gesticulations, to every one she met, white or colored, that she had been commissioned to go about and exhort the people and admonish them that they must "come up to the help of the Lord against the mighty" by paving twenty-five cents each towards building a house for His prophets; "for," said she, "the earth, and the abundance thereof, and the' cattle upon a thousand hills, are all his pro perty." She said further, after working for Him hero a little while longer He had promised to take her home to help Him in His kingdom. As a general thing she uses very good language, but her actions and' manner proclaim her as "crazy as a bed bug." The police warped her that she must moderate her voice to some extent or they would have to lock her up. Drop Letters. As there seems to be. some misunder standing as to the payment of two cents on drop letters being now required, we give in explanation an extract from an act of March 3, 1879; as follows: "On mailable matter of the first class, except postal cards and drop-letters, pos tage shall be prepaid at the rate of three cents for each half ounce or fraction there of ; postal cards shall be transmitted through the mails at a postage charge of one cent each, including the cost of manufacture; and drop-letters shall be mailed at the rate ot .two cents per half ounce or fraction thereof, including delivery at letter carrier offices, and one cent for each half ounce or fraction thereof where free delivery is not established." m Base Ball. A match game of base ball was played at the Athletic Club Grounds, yesterday, be tween the "Clippers Capt, R Glavin, and the "Enterprise," Capt W'. Roberts, in which, ,the former scored 20 and the lat ter $4. '.. ,, : . The juvenile clubs, "PaciflcCapt. Sam. , ytek, and the Pdgrhns,'' Capt.

''.3 ,,ri,l';r' I ' "' '"T ' About wo vabnths and ' half ago there, was a rippie-wttw-fluiet surface . of JjNTk mingtoa society' caused by, the advent In its midst of a young strange!; purporting to"hail frMTf ew Yorl, who gave his name as CharieV Ti Blake. Being a than of ed ucation' and acrxjlnplishmenta, and of good address withal, be readily obtained emplor-- meat, andrwaj aooa installed as private secretary and abort-hand writer in one mf the railroad offices of this city. He dressed neatly and 'handsomely ad had an airiof elegance ' and ' refinement about him. coupled witn a: ' captivating manner, which was. absolutely irresistible, especially Ltethe full r sjniniji whom he was unanl- nwusly yoted thwnawisomestAnd most el e f'yonwg' inUi. Wi.-' Thwo wn a: certain amount of ssstheticisni in his compo sition, and he partook: to some little extent of the nature and characteristics ol the dude." Altogether, however, the combi nation seemed to be pleasing, and young Mr. Blake had many warm friends. To such an extent was this the case that the young man had no difficulty in replenishing his wardrobe as many times as he desired, getting what cigars he wanted to smoke and other little iacidents; his "Charge that to my little account, you know," be ing esteemed as good as the "I. O. TJ." of Jay Gould or Vanderbilt. In some - in stances he would go into a store and tell a clerk (the proprietor: 'being out) that he had just been talking with the head of tbe es tablishment and that he told him to call and get what he wanted. Tbe clerk would have thought it little less than sacrilege to refuse such an awfully nice man as Mr. Blake, and he was served without hesita tion. This was the state of affairs on Tuesday last On that evening he drew his pay at the railroad. The next morning he called the porter at the office and told him if his em ployers should ask for him to say that he was down at the hotel, sick, and if they should send him with a letter to Mr. Sen loss, of the Commercial Hotel, where he had been boarding, not to deliver it He departed that same morning on tbe northern bound train, leaving his board bill unpaid, and sundry and various outstanding accounts against him at the dry goods and clothing stores, cigar establishments and news stands. As soon as his departure had been discovered telegrams were sent to officers at Goldsboro to stop him, but as they were not sent by proper authority no attention was paid to them. An effort was then made to stop him at Weldon, but the party to whom the telegram was sent happened to be away from home and didn't get the dispatch in time. The result was that be got out of the State and was "gone glim mering" before thincs could be put in proper shape to trip him up. Streets and Alleys In tbe Clty-Onr Population, . Ae.

In estimating the population it should be understood that a great many of the houses are occupied by two or more families. This is the case to a great extent among the white people, but to a much greater extent among the colored people. Six persons to a house would be a fair average, where only occupied by one family, and this would give us a total of 19,494. Tno P. O. Haltroa Caao.

Stocking- the Cape Fear with fthad. An interesting incident was witnessed by a select few last night about 11 o'clock, at Market street dock, when two hundred and fifty thousand young shad wero turned loose in the Cape Fear river. The young fish were brought in ten large cans from the hatchery at Avoca, near Edenton, which place they left at 7 o'clock Tuesday even ing, arriving here by express last night. Mr. C. M.
