Mr. Carlisle will displease tbe Ra leigh Democratic luminary by talk ing as he does. He says he left the, tariff question to the "judgment and -discretion" of the convention He says he is satisfied with what they did and because "the convention in- dorsed and reaffirmed the platforms adopted at St. Loais in 137find at Cincinnati in 1880. In my judgment, those platforms, so far as they relate to the tariff, are as pertinent now as they were at the time of their adop tion, and I think the Democracy of Kentucky acted wisely in adhering to them as they stand, leaving the national organization to determine what changes, if any, shall be made in their phraseology." Sensible Car lisle. It does the ordinary Northern speaker or writer exceeding good to Ttfer to the Southern people as "rebels" and to flaunt "the le bellion" in their faces. Well, after all it does not hurt, for there is not a true Sonthron who is not proud ; of the title. They made it honorable, as that most illustrious boutuern leader, George Washington, did in the "times that tried men's souls." The well-bred Northerners avoid the word "rebel." It is only the mean blatherskites who firo it off .from their months. Maj. Maginnis avoided it in his speech before the Army of the Potomac the other day. Gen. Beauregard is in New York in the interest of the Society known n New Orleans as the "Athenee Louisianais," which is devoted to the dissemination of the French lan guage in Louisiana.

Hefner, one of our citizens, fell into the fire last. Friday merning and was so severely burned as to cause death in 12 or 15 hours. It was supposed he . fainted and thus fell into the fire. As an evidence of the terrible consequences of, a burn this little fellow seized a red hot oven lid in hit mouth, and when polled out f j the the fire, held on to the lid until his mother forcibly wrested it from his mouth. Sunday's Macon (Ga.) Tfefe ffrapi and Messenger contains the follow ing: "Mention was made in our issue of yesterday of the death of Rev. Thos. Bat tle, of Monroe. Mr. Battle was one of the pioneers of Monroe county, and had lived for over fifty, years on the plantation on which he died and is now buried. He was born in Nash county, N, C, but emigrated to Georgia when very young coming alone to hew out his fortune in the then new territory. He represented Monroe county in the State Senate as far back as 1828, as a Whig. - Oxford Torchlight: The roads leading into Oxford were crowded last week with wagons in search of fertilizers. Many of them coming empty to town in stead of being loaded with tobacco. We have had frequent hail storms in Gran ville recently. , Col.

He says It is now the most pforperous community he has ever seen. They have plenty of corn at something over $2 a barrel, wheat at 80 and 00 cents, plenty of fine horses, and we all know of its reputation as to the money crop of bright tobacco.

The land is undulating, but these bright people know the value of water, and capital has been invested hereto establish water works. The primary sup- ly is more than a mile away from the city . be stand pipe is in me city near tbe court house, made of boiler iron, and towers above the city. This is connected with the supply by a large pipe and smaller pipes connect with the main along the streets. There seems to be plenty of water every where. One hundred thousand dollars is invested in this enterprise, of which only six thousand is home capital. The Charlotte Journal- Observer gives a graphic account of the drunkenness on tbe cars among those woo were return ing from tbe celebration. One negro was desperately cut with a razor in the hands of a drunken negro. Capt Land endea vored to put a stop to the row when the negro who had the razor turned upon him and struck at him savagely; The razor struck Capt. Land's hand, inflicting a deep and painful wound. Capt Land drew his pistol and fired at the negro, who dropped, the razor and ran through the cars until he came to the baggage car, and seeing that he was pursued he Jumped from the car and went headlong down an embankment The train was stopped and a party jumped off and captured the negro. On another train the row was great A man could hardly stand up before he would be cuffed over and jammed under the seats. Eyes that were bleared and puffed from drink were the favorite targets, and the rapidity with which they were closed and tied up in crape was quite aston ishing. Every Other man had an eye in mourning and those who couftr keep their teeth m their mouths considered them selves fortunate. The fighting gradually narrowed down to an issue between the blacks and the whites and when the train reached Hunteraville open battle was de clared. The white men drew their pistols and fired into the crowd standing around the depot. The firing was commenced just as the train moved out of Hunteraville and tbe bullets intended for the negroes went wide of their mark and struck into a crowd of spectators standing near the depot two of whom, both students going to school at Hunteraville were wounded. A bullet passed almost through the left foot of Mr. Julius Potts, inflicting an exceedingly pain ful wound. Another bullet struck Mr. William Worsham in the left shoulder,, making a serious , wound. The - bullets were extracted by the local physicians. Who the parties were who fired the shots is, of course, not known, and it is not likely that they will ever be brought to justice.

We learn that the school committees of the two districts into whlc Wilmington is di vided have already begun preparing for tbe. next session, which commences on the first Monday in October. 1 The corps of teachers for the coming year is as follows: M. C. S. Noble, General Principal. Hemmenway Graded School, white M. O. Wallace, assistant principal; Mary K Duguid, M. L. McLeed, Alice J. Yarj borough. Ffcabofly (ihwded-SehiJ, otrod Jofio A. Holt assistant principal; James B. Dud ley, Susie B. Dudley, Annie II. Mallette, A. Therese Willis. Union Graded School, while M. E. Cook, assistant principal; Adelaide S. M cares, Maggie Jones. Willistbn Graded School, colored Mary W. Howe, assistant principal ; Isa bella L. Howe, Louisa G. Nixon, Emma F. Hooper, Mageie Whiteman. These appointments arc made thus early in order that the teachers, sure of employ ment, may have the opportunity of attend ing the State Normal School, with refer ence to special preparation for the next year's work. During the session just closed the Princi pal has not only taught in the class-rooms, but he has also devoted much lime to bringing the teachers up to a high standard in the theory and practice of teaching. He has conducted thirty-two teachers' meetings sixteen for white and sixteen for colored and their good results are shown by the increased activity, zeal and enthu siasm on the part of the teachers in their class-rooms. Never before have our citizens taken so great an interest in our public schools, as is shown by a record of more than 2,000 visits. The average daily attendance of pupils has been about 800. The outlook for- next year is very encouraging, and quite a rush for seats is expected. 1 be committee, from time to time, either as a body or individually, without notice to any one, visit and inspect the workings of the school, and in every way labor to have the teachers bring about the best results. We understand that nearly all the teach ers will go to the State Normal School.and after Prof. Noble gets through with the school at Newton he, with two of the teachers, will visit the Martha's Vineyard (Mass.) Teachers' Institute, remain there a month or six weeks, and then go to Boston and inspect the schools there. Prof. Noble, in his management of our graded schools, has given universal satis faction, and his thorough competency is sufficiently manifest in the rapid advance ment and good order and discipline which have prevailed. The committee have un derstood and appreciated his efforts, and he has had the advantage of their undi vided interest and cooperation throughout 4notfcer of tbe Alleged Conwayboro, 8. C JHur4erer Captured. We gave the particulars in yesterday's Star of the arrest of one William Hardy, (or Hardee), colored, charged with being a party to the murder of an aged white citi zen of Conwayboro. S. C, and who, with three others, implicated in the same crime, broke jail in Conwayboro some months ago and had since been at large. We now have information to the effect that Sol. Hewett, another of the alleged murderers,, was captured on Wednesday last at L. D. Galloway's place in Smithville Township, Brunswick county, near the mouth of Lockwood's Folly river, close to the ocean, by Messrs. R. W. McKeithan, John White and Marion White, by whom, it is under stood, Hewett was turned over to the au thorities in South Carolina, in accordance with directions from Sheriff Taylor,, of Brunswick. The name of one of the cap turers of Wm. Hardy appeared in our last as Emanuel Hunt when it should have been Emanuel Hart. Since writing the above we have received a letter from Mr. Thomas Lewis in relation to the capture of the two men referred to, and the excitement resulting in the Shal- lotte and Lockwood's Folly neighborhood over the matter. The particulars, however, do not differ materially from those given above. ' Atteaap Bobbery .. An attempt was mads some time during Wednesday night to perpetrate a robbery at ths expense of Mr. Geo. W. Huggins, the ieweller. The thief inserted a stick through a side-glass to the show window, and attempted to draw within his reach a small collection" of jewelry which had been left lying in a pile on the shelf, bnt which was found scattered about promiscuously yesterday morning. The stick, which was about four feet in length and a little over 1 inch in circumference, was found stick ing through' the aperture in the window. which is evidence that the would-be thief was frightened from his purpose, probably , by a policeman, and . had to beat a hasty retreat There was also a gold : watch, of comparative small value, suspended above the sneir, wnten nau apparently not been disturbed. Mr. Huggins usually keeps all of his valuables under lock and key. Almoat a Fir. The rear ef the building occupied by John G. Norwood as a carpenter's shop, situated on Front street caught fire on the roof yestevday morning, about 11 o'clock, but. tbe flames were extinguished before much damage was done. No general alarm. Annual MMm rt tbe rti14 L- The following is the annual audits of -the PrgtirtsEt, X3oL, J G. Burr, delivered before anniial meeting, of the Histocal and BclenflPoCfety of WUmragton.N.C, on Monday evening last: ' . Thfs'being tfi anniversary of the organ isation of vr Society, a few rematk from me-will not, I hope, be regarded as odt of placet' The- Society has kept on the even lienor .of it-way, its meetings have been regularly held, and many papers of great merit have' been read by different members. And right hero it mam td me that it would bp well for the Society to consider the expediency or having such pa pers published in a volume, to. he offered tor sale and for "distribution among other. societies elsewhere by wbieb means a Urge amount or .vaiua t be i-t eeived m return leas attract attention, and bring us into fa vorable notice abroad. The experience of the past season shows very clearly, I think, that greater interest is being felt by 'our people in lectures than ever before, The system inaugurated by the Library Associ ation of engaging men of prominence and ability to deliver lectures under the auspices of the Association, has not only tended to develop this interest, "but has also resulted very favorably in a financial way to that organization. It is suggested that similar action by our Society in the future would be attended with like beneficial results, and I submit the matter for your consideration and for such action as you may deem nec essary. One of the most successful, and certainly one of the most intellectual, lec tures delivered In this city the past season was by Professor Shepherd, at the invita tion of this Society. It is true that the lecture was free, bnt a large proportion of those who attended would willingly have paid, had any charge been made for admit tance. Heretofore our people would not attend lectures, it mattered not how dis tinguished the speaker might be or how interesting his subject; but I am happy to believe that we are now freed from that reproach. The public taste has become more elevated, and refined and seeks : plea sure more in intellectual enjoyment than in the tinsel glare and show which panders only to tbe gratification of the senses. During tbe past year we have had many valuable donations of books and historical records from various sources which have been placed in the archives of the Society, and it is worthy of note, that as far as my knowledge extends, the Historical and Scientific Society of Wilmington is the only organization of its kind in the State, in successful operation. The North Caro lina Historical Society exists in name, a shadow only, not the substance; a meeting of its members is held once a year to keep up-its organization, but for all practical or useful purposes it is unknown in the annals of our State. It behooves us there fore to strive in every way to extend our influence, to increase our membership, and by all legitimate means to elevate our Society to a high place In the republic of letters. We have the material in abundance, it is lying dormant all around us and needs but the awakening of that old time spirit of local pr:de to bring it into active ex ercise. While we recognise the exacting rtntSMr trpan"-oe Tjfthis. ntilitgi age hi which we live, let ua not forget the past nor those who made that past a history. If we succeed but in re moving a few mosses only that may have obscured or dimmed the transactions of former days, or in bringing to light some unknown or long forgotten event in the history of our section or State, then surely our Society will not have been organized in vain. Should not this be an incentive to every member for increased activity and diligence. We have received during the past year many additions, and valuable ones, to our list of members, but the angel of death has again visited us and laid his icy hand upon one of the most prominent and one of the originators of our Society, Mr. Wm. r . Wenzel. He was an active. energetic, devoted member, was curator of the Society, whose interest and whose suc cess lay very near his heart. He was a man also of large information, and of establish ed reputation in that branch of science, which he had made the study of his life; a valuable member, who promptly responded at all times to any call that might bo made upon hhn. Upon the record book of our Society another blank page now bears upon its surface thq emblems of . mourning, and side by side with the one commemorative of Henry ri ott, is inscribed tbe name ot YV m. F. Wenzel. The curtain has fallen upon the last act in the drama of their lives, in which each played well his part and they now rest from their labors. ITXoyor Court. Mary Eliza Lively has once more waltz ed to the surface of police notoriety, and her cheerful countenance at the bar of tbe court gave a jovial aspect to the otherwise somewhat sombre surroundings so natural to the temple wherr justice is dispensed. She was accused dtf this occasion of using abusive, profane and boisterous language towards Mxs.. Ida Mulligan and others. Of course she denied the "soft impeachment," or, in other, words, hurled back, with what little of scorn and indignation she was ca pable, tbe base insinuation, and this in the teeth of the highly respectable witnesses who had reluctantly consented, at a con siderable sacrifice of their inate modesty, to appear and testify. The court was obliged, however,' to shock Mary Eliza's lively disposition to tbe extent of imposing a fine of $5. Josephine Davis and Adeline Fair, both with dark and kinky hair, were arraigned for fighting in Wallace's alley on Wednes day afternoon. " The. first named was fined $2 and the latter $5, which' amounts were forthcoming and the defendants were dis charged. Lecture tbls Evening - It will be seen by announcement else where that1 Dr. Thbmas F. Wood will de liver a lecture in Tilestofl Hall this even ing, taking for his subject 'Insectivorous Plants."
