He is the great a t ' "eorew race, i uu nia iong lire has been marked I with acts of noble sacrifice, gene rosity and benevolence. He is not only 100 years old, but he is the most highly esteemed man of his race who has lived probably in a thousand years. Henry Ward Beecher said of him: . "There Was not nnlv rfttl9A fnrhnnnr arA admiration of the man, but there was in his example a lesson. A man might get a rib bon and not deserve it; he might get a coro net and not be worthy of it. But such a man as Sir Montefiore, although knighted by SO good a Queen asr Victoria tnnfe- hia title from the nobility not to, accept an. honor from them, but rather to reflect nonor from himself upon them." It i is the opinion of many Dem ocrats in Wilmington that thus far Col. John N. Staples has made the ablest speech heard in our city du- ring the campaign. The speakers have been Jarvis, Moise, Rowland, Steele, Bennett, Fowle, Scales and Finger. The writer heard Judge Bowie's, a portion of Col. Steele's and one point in Col. Staples's. Steele was vigorous, clear and in- o teresting, and Col. Staples handled the Tariff better than any politician I we have heard since the war. David Davis is out for Blaine, it is said, and he is very .anxious to get back on the SuDreme Court Rfinn.b. But the old man will be disappointed. It will be -President Cleveland and not the "tattoed man5' from Maine who will have the appointing." Twa9 ever, thus from childhood's hour, 1 have seen my fondest hopes decay," or words to that effect, sang little Tommy Moore. Mr. Davis can learn the tune and sing for his own solacement after March 4th. The Philadelphia Press used to be a paper that had some fairness and regard forthe truth. But for a year or two it seems to have cut the ac quaintance of both fact and truth. The Philadelphia Record, its able neighbor that often catches it, says this: "The Press publishes a set of fieures by which it undertakes to give New York to iSlaine by a majority of 26,150. The fig ures in detail are deliberate falsifications. or else insults to intelligence. Erie is made to give Blaine 2,500; the local Republican managers do not anticipate any maionty. Kings is put at 8,000 Democratic; it will be nearer oO.OOO." A great meeting favoring the abo lition of the House of Lords was held in Hyde Park,London, on Sunday. A special to the Herald says: "The marchers groaned while passing the headquarters of various conservative clubs at the West End. Many banners were displayed bearing such inscriptions as "Down with the Lords!" and "The .Lords are opponents of civil and religious liberty, and must be abolished! - speeches were delivered from nine platforms. Miss Jessie Craigen, a well known agitator, presided at one of the platforms. - Resolutions were passed declaring that the House of Lords is useless and dangerous, and ouent to .be abolished. No speeches were made by members of the House of Commons. Men who have been shouting for Jim Blaine of Maine should take warning. It is a very dangerous bu- smess. l ne toiiowing is irom a re publican paper, the Indianapolis Journal: "As George T. Dorsey, of New Ross, one of the most prominent and influential men of Montgomery county, was returning from a political meeting at Ladoga he met some friends in anotner carriage, tie Arose, waved his hat and shouted. "Three cheers for Blaine." he being a staunch Re publican. These were the last words he uttered, for at that moment the horses shied, the carriage overturned and he was instantly killed. Yonnff Blaine must be km to , a Black Jack Logan. He did ncftr spit tobacco juice in a man's face but in sulted some ladies at Milwaukee be cause they occupied his room win dows so they could witness the great hippodrome j exhibition. He is Avidpntlv kin to Major James Blaine. 't - ! After all the (Republicans lack jast 13 votes of a majority m Ohio. That is an awful sort of vic tory. We hope they will be worse off in November. It begins to look that way; The signs are favorable and if they do not disappoint and deceive North Carolina will go Democratic by a larcelV increased majority over mat of 1882, and Grovet Cleveland will be the next President of the United States.

Mr. Reid followed him in a masterly and complete refu tation of every point made. He was at times grandly eloquent, and re ceived applause repeatedly during his speech. New Berne Journal.

Everything connected with Lathrop's oil mill is important to the prosperity and pro gress of our. town. The village of Swan Quarter was all excitement last night over an attempt of a negro prisoner by the name of Paxton to murder a young man by the name of Brinn, who was waiting on the lail in the absence of W. B. Swindell, keeper of the jail. Paxton had managed to slip a bolt and struck Brinn , oh the back of the head, but failing to knock, him down. Brinn recovered but not tquick enough to prevent him from strikine'him aeain on the fore part of the head. Bv this time Brinn had sufficiently recovered as to make fight with the negro.- and managed to catch hold of the bolt. The negro kicked him several times and struck him in the mouth ytith his fist. The cry and screams of Brinn alarmedjthe villagers, and with axes and guns they made for the jail and rushed to his relief, When . they beheld Brinn drenched in blood, with two frightful gashes upon the head, but with his right Band; in the collar of old Paxtonr and with tne left hand holding one end or the iron bolt and the bloody minded negro the other. The negro was at once handcuffed, and it was with great difficulty that the crowd could be prevented from mobbing him. Brinn was not fatally injured. THBOITY.

Alfred Lloyd, the colored Re publican candidate for the Legislature in Pender county, spoke at Point Caswell, yesterday, after the joint discussion be tween Major Stedman and Judge Fair cloth had closed. It is a' curious fact that nearly three-fourths of the negroes kept away from the stand when he was speak-ing.- One of our business houses re ceived a letter yesterday from one of their correspondents in New York a Northern man, supposed to be about forty years old in which he says: "To-day, for the first time in my life, I shall parade with the Wall street merchants in a political pro cession." This was the grand Cleveland demonstration. "Greatest of the Parades ! Seventeen Thousand Business Men March for Cleveland and Reform 1 !

This heading from the Berald, in reference to the recent business men's demonstration for Cleveland and Hendricks in New York, shows how the business interests are aroused. The business men of Wilming ton should feel as much interest as those in New York. Green Persimmons and Raw Potatoes. Four young men of this city, disregar-d ing the injunction to keep the Sabbath day holy so the story goes sauntered out in the country last Sunday afternoon in search of 'simmons. After walking about three miles they came to a tree and commenced shaking the fruit down and eating thereof; but one of the crowd, presuming to be a little wiser than the rest, allowed that lie was not going to eat any of the persimmons that fell from the tree, because they were rotten, but-would ascend the tree and pluck the firm solid fruit "from the branches Carrying out this programme, and leaving his companions enjoying the fast-ripened persimmons picked from the ground, our young Solomon, perched upon a branch. partook of the unripe ones until his mouth was drawn and contracted to such an ex tent that he could scarcely articulate ; and, to cap the climax, on the way home he ate a sweet potatoe, which completed the work of physical demoralization, rendering the succeeding night's experience any thing but pleasant. Green persimmons and raw potatoes are now his particular aversion. ; POINT CASWELL Joint Dlsensslon Between Stedman and Falreloth a Royal Reception to Pender's Favorite Large Atten dance from Pender and Adjoining Counties Presentation of Flowers, fee., dec. " f Special Star Report. At this important point of convergance of the counties of Bladen,.: Sampson and Pender,, a large crowd assembled yesterday, from these counties, to hear the discussion between Judge Faircloth and Major Sted man. As the steamer, bearing these speakers from Wilmington, moved to the wharf, the vociferous shouts of the multitude of Dem ocrats who had assembled to greet and wel come the able and eloquent Democratic candidate for Lieut. Governor were deafen ing, and protracted to a degree (hat evinced not alone the confidence, but the great con sideration and affection entertained for him by the people of these and surrounding counties. Immediately a large procession. headed by a fine company of horsemen, took him in charge, and bore him in triumph around the town to the fine stand erected for the speaking. The scene was inspiring to the Democrats. In front was the United States 1 flag, sus pended from a large oak tree, and near by large and tall Democratic pole pointed well to the skies, with a beautiful flag at the top, on which was inscribed in fine letters, "Cleveland, Scales' and Stedman." And then enthusiasm brightly shone in the faces of Democratic ladies, and gentlemen for the ladies as well as the white men of this county are ardently devoted to Sted man. It was Judge Faircloth's turn to speak first, and he did so, addressing a large au dience of both parties and races. The Judge is undoubtedly one of the ablest Republican speakers that has been on the, stump in North Carolina during this canvass, and, his Republican friends here were in high glee. He made the same speech he has made at every point at which he has spoken in this canvass, and j in this relation is certainly consistent. He dwelt for an hour and. a half on edu cation, revenue, the tariff, the blessings of i Republican rule, &c, and the Democrats united with the Republicans in giving him a respectful hearing and in showing him courtesy. j Maj. Stedman followed, -for the same ength of time, in one of j those brilliant, ogical and effective speeches that have, this very year, placed him; high upon the ladder of public orators. His effort here to-day showed the pnblie r judgment to be correct in estimating him to be in the front ranks of our most convincing, attractive, and effective campaigners.; As he riddled to pieces the arguments and sophistries of his competitor, and showed np, in his' mas terly manner, the unconstitutional courses and sectional tendencies, and doctrines, and corruptions of the Republican party, the feelings and blood of Demo crats rose higher and higher, and deeper and stronger did this winning ora tor, and yet bold and aggressive speaker, send conviction and new life and energy into the hearts of freemen. Every one who heard this able champion of the white race and the cardinal doctrines of Democracy as with withering power and stirring eloquence he levelled his invinci ble arguments and sledge-hammer blows at the Republican party, felt that. North Carolina has, in Major Stedman, notalone a chivalrous gentleman j and whole-souled North Carolinian, but a comprehensive and coming statesman, destined to fill,by popu lar choice, the highest gift of the Democra cy of our State. No political speaker has won. so much and such solid reputation this year in North Carolina as he has, and this is the verdict everywhere pronounced in his favor. Yesterday he handled with much ability and success the issues of the campaign, and irdpressed himself deeply upon the crowd assembled from the counties named. The applause was frequent and emphatic, and shows that Maj. Stedman has rare powers of stirring the masses, and of giving them rich patriotic material to take home with them to thiqk about and to act upon. He de serves high praise and grateful apprecia tion at the hands of the Democracy of the State for bis brilliant and magnificent can vass. And it is but justice to say of Judge Fair cloth, that he has served his party well and with more ability than any of the Republi can speakers who have upheld the Repub lican cause in this protracted campaign be tween him aud Maj. Stedman. But the bulk of his party admit; as is patent when ever debate has been had between them, that Stedman uses Faircloth up completely and overwhelms him with his eloquence and power in a most striking manner. The reception given to Maj. Stedman at Point Caswell was simply splendid, and is the best eulogy on his high character and great popularity among the masses of (he counties named. His friends could not wish for more for him than was so cor dially and enthusiastically acceded to him to-day. He showed his' high appreciation by feeling words and grateful acknowledg ments that showed him to be a man who loves his friends and who has a heart full of devotion to the people, and of broad and generous sympathies for their rights and interests. These facts are giviug him an immense hold upon the; masses, for they appreciate his high qualities of head and heart. After the speaking was over a beautiful bouquet of rich and elegant . flowers was presented to him by the ladies of Pender, WHOLE NO. 5653 through jQhir D. i Kerr, Esq., in a fine tri bute to the Major, and this added to the gratifying evidences of , his high standing among the nlr ladies of that county. His reply was eloquent and touching to a high degree. " ' " '. .'' To Capt. R. P. PaddiBon, especially, and to scores of other friends and acquaint ances, the Stab representative wishes to re turn his most sincere and heartfelt thanks for courtesies that he has never seen sur passed. If there can be found a more hos pitable peop&lhan those of the county of Pender, or a man more entijled to be called "the prince of good fellows" than Dick Paddison, this reporter would like to know it. .. Supervisors of Election. Jddge A. 8. Seymour, of the U. S. Dis trict Court, has seen fit, at the instance of certain Republicans in this city, to appoint supervisofsand inspectors of election for this county, to be composed of one Demo crat and one Republican for each voting precinct.

A colored individual, doing a small mer cantile business on Second street, closed up his establishment a night or two ago, and posted the following notice on the inside of his front window. Whether the merchant has gone to Canada, or only temporarily absented himself from his place of business, is not knbwn, but it may be remarked that a writ of ejectment now surmounts the fare well address, which is annexed: NOTICE.
