Now Gen. Graham, evidently a g :od soldier, is to be recalled be cause he has not devoured the Arabs. He is surely Dot responsible for Genl McNeill's carelessness. Reinforce ments are to be sent to Suakim. Who will say that there is no hon esty left in the land when the follow ing item is true, taken from the Hawkinsville (Ga.) Dispatch: ''We know a man who last week rode in Ins buggy 50 miles to meet a party and pay an account of $50." -The Lower House of the Texas legislature has passed a bill submit ting Prohibition to a vote of the peo ple.

Watch the operations in the Soudan and near Suakim. The New York correspondent "of the Philadelphia Xkdger writes of Postmaster Pearson: ; "He has uot lifted a fineer nor uttered a Byllable tfr ififluenee the dmaion at Wash ington, and,. whatever the result may be. he is prepared to continue to do his duty to the public,, just as heretofore, or to, step down and out. - If he leaves the office one of the leading Express Companies, I hear, would be elao to obtain his services the very next day, and that, too, at a salary considerably higher than that which he receives as City Postmaster. He can also have a lucrative position in one of the downtown banks, where the nay likewise would be more liberal. " The President should give him a chance to take one of these offers. The New York Graphic says: 'Pensions the last five Years have amounted to $290,000,000." In the face of this- there is a class of reformers that desire above all things to wipe out the $120,000,000 annually derived from the tax on liquors and. tobacco. They are- anx ious to put the tax on the necessaries in the tariff schedule. The Washington Hatchet pays the following compliment to the able senior Senator from North Carolina: "Senator Ransom is regarded by South ern Democrats as haying the confidence of President Cleveland and his Cabinet. He is one of the wisest and safest advisers the Administration can have from the South. His broad and conservative views on all State and national affairs justly entitle him to the closest confidential relations with the President as an adviser. " Spirits Turpentine.

Raleigh Visitor: Five convicts were brought to the penitentiary yesterday; three from Halifax and two from Cabarrus. The lecture of Rev. Dr. C. F.

On Thursday night last a storehouse belonging to him caught fire by some, unexplained means and was L destroyed. Old man Humphrey, route agent on the C & S.

She can, how ever, swallowt liquids when'' put into her mouth. Her ' condition is the result of an attack of diphtheria. There was no additional news to be gathered, about the Henderson fire yesterday. The Newt-Ob server in the morning gave all the details, accurately. The people of Henderson were even yesterday much excited over the fire, and hundreds of people were feoking at the ruins of the burned buildings. The amount of stealing done Monday was disgracefully large, the guard houee was entirely full of drunkards and thieves. The people of Henderson are already making preparations to rebuild, and in a few months handsome brick stores will mark the places now ra vaged by the fire. THE CITY. SiKUi IDVEHTISBJnENTM.

A meeting of the Board of Managers of the Produce Exchange was. held yesterday to take into consideration the charge of the naval stores trade of New York of fraudu lent practices in the naval stores business in this city, as appears from a press tele gram from that city in the Stab of yester day morning. The "Secretary was in structed to write at once and request a copy of the resolutions of the naval stores trade of New York, iu order that such ac tion may be taken as shall be deemed proper. Much indignation was manifested by the Board of Managers at the unfounded charge thus published to the world by the New York trade, and it appeared to be the disposition of the board to take prompt ac tion in the premises.

Contractors are now making estimates on the grand stand and seats and in a short while everything pertaining to a well equipped field will be finished. Since the Wilmington - Nine en tered the State League to contend for the championship every act of theirs has been characterized by an enthusiastic determina tion to stand at the head. To accomplish this it will be necessary to employ, as all the clubs in the State have done, trained professionals. The fence, seats, stand and repair of grounds will cost five hundred dollars, which has been subscribed by its members. It will take as much more to secure the services of competent experts, and to accomplish this, season tickets will be issued by the club, and the revenue de rived from their sale will be devoted to that purpose. Oxford, Henderson, Raleigh and Durham have their batteries, and if Wil mington desires her club to stand well on the list let her business men lend their as sistance to the boys in this enterprise. Twecty games will be played on their grounds, so that every one holding a season ticket will receive an equivalent for his outlay, with the additional privilege of seeing any and all games played by the club with nines not in the State Association. The "Seasides" intend making the sum mer an unusually attractive one for levers of the ball and bat, and all the skill and pluck necessary on the diamond field will be brought to the front. All they ask is that the citizens evince a disposition to encourage their efforts to bring Wilming ton to a level with Durham and Raleigh, and they will do their part towards enter taining the spectators. Any one desiring a season ticket' can purchase it from any member of the club and learn from him what they are doing and what, with a little encouragement, they-intend to do. Lt. John U. Rhodes. This well known officer of the Revenue Marine service, who was recently assigned to duty on the Revenue Steamer Wolcott, Port Townsend, Washington Territory, reached his destination on the 13th inst. , and in a letter to a friend in Wilmington mentions some incidents connected with his new station, which will not be without interest to many of our readers. We ex tract as follows: ' "I arrived at San Francisco in due time. Had a very pleasant trip of seven days. Left San Francisco by steamer on the 7th of March, and after a. pleasant trip of six days arrived at Port Townsend, Washing ton Territory. Like the Wolcott very much. All of the officers I have met be fore. Tuttle and Kenney are the Lieu tenants. The climate is delightful. We are 14 degrees north of Wilmington, yet it is very warm here. Lofty mountains are in full view. Port" Townsend is in the valley. Mount Baker, distant 114 miles, looks as though it were only twenty, miles away. The mountains are covered with snow all the year round, yet in the valley flowers are in bloom with the thermometer at 60 degrees above freezing. I went to an Indian war dance last evening at a' place called Neab Bay. There were about six hundred Indians, and their antics were of the most amusing character " Sadden Death. Jane McDaniel, colored, the wife of Wil liam McDaniel, who has a small truck gar den near the upper end of Market street and peddles vegetables about the streets, died very suddenly Wednesday evening. She had been washing during the day, and as night was about to set in she went out into the yard to take the clothing from the line. The family remaining in the house were alarmed by the cries of a little son of the woman and hurried out, when they found her upon the ground quite dead. Church matters, t Rev.

The prisoner arrived on the steamer Louise and was followed to the jail,' where he is to be temporarily confined,1 by quite a crowd, who were attracted by the fact of his being securely tied. Tne Bird As there seems to be a misunderstanding in regard to the bird law as it now stands, we have examined the captions of the public actstf the Legislature, passed-at the recent session, and find that the old law, which applied - to the whole State, has been changed so as to exempt from its provisions the following counties: Clay, Cherokee, Jackson, Swain, Macon, Graham, John ston, Tyrrell, Dare, Onslow, Carteret, Jones and Columbus. With this excep tion, the old law is still in operation, and the close season begins April 1st and ends October 15th. Foreign Shipments.

A floor is being laid iu the Opera House, connecting with the stage and entirely cov ering the parquette, converting the space into-a skating rink, which will be opened about the 6th of April, under the manage ment of Mr. C. D. Wilson. It is safe to say, taking the above into consideration, that the theatrical season has closed. Skat ing rinks are all the go just about now, and the one at the Opera House will no doubt be popular with the young folks. HIVEOANDnARINE.
