McClare writes from Wash ington to his paper, the Philadelphia TVmes, that there are more vacancies than recommendations.' He says. "While many Democrats complain be cause there are not nromDt removals of Federal officers who have abused their offi cial positions as partisans, they are forget iui mat mere are no charges or formal com jMaU VtMv6- or Cabinet officers against the officials whose removal is demanded. There is growling because- me tresiaent does not remove offensive officials in Philadelphia, but there is not as yet a charge or a complaint on file in Wash ington against one of them, and the law. absolutely forbids their removal except for cause. , The President is reported as say ing to a Pennsylvania' Congressman to-dav who demanded removals: , "Well, am I to goto Pennsylvania to inquire inta the official records of these He added also that there are trter three thousand offices now made vacant by resig nations and deaths and thev have not bad time to fill them. The President and Cabi net officers have arduous duties in the great work of starting -an administration that is to mark a departure in political his tory and they have not been able, even worung mgnt ana day, to keep up witn tne vacancies which have occurred." Many of our readers will be pleased to learn that the Essays and Speeches of the late Jeremiah S. Black, are in the press of the Appletons. Judge Black was indeed ene of the great men of our country in the nineteenth century. He left no man of equal power behind him when he passed away. As a political controversialist we do not believe he has been equalled in America. ' He was also a jurist of great ability. His works will richly deserve a place on the shelf that holds Webster's and Cal houn's works. Lient.-Gov. C. F. Black, son of the great lawyer and polemic, will contribute a biographi cal sketch. The United States Senate stands 40 Republicans and 34 Democrats. One vacancy each in Oregon and Il linois. If these should choose Re publicans there will be 8 Republican majority. The chances for Demo cratic grains are eood. Two will be got probably from Indiana and Vir ginia. Then there is a showing in Connecticut, Now. York, New Jer sey and Michigan, with some flight chance in Wisconsin, California and Nevada. If Illinois should elect a Democrat,' as there is a possibility, then the Democratic chances of course improve. The Supreme Court's decision of the Virginia coupon oases is regarded in the North as a blow at repudiation. It says that Virginia must pay her debts. -The N. Y. Herald says: "The Court admits that a .State cannot without its consent be sued by a citizen. But it holds that in this case the tax collec tor is not the State, nor has he the autho rity of the State behind him, for the reason that the law under which he claims to act is unconsuiuuonai ana mereiore equiva lent to no law. .Being thus without the authority of law. he acts as an individual and on his own responsibility, and is an swerable for his doings to the citizen whom he wrongs." ; - a " pondent of the New York the Charleston JVews & Courier says,and we agree with it: " H. P.' is wholly ignorant of English thought and English manners, and divides his 'time about equally between praising uermany, sneering at me .English ministry . and panegyrizing that miserable political harlequin, Lord Beaconsfield. It is dis creditable to a paper of the standing of the 2frn68tohave a representative whose in formation is so narrow and whose range of vision is so contracted. A comparison of ' his jaundiced speculations with the clear and candid statements of the Associated Press, for instance, tells the whole story. Spirits Turpentine.

Blahop Keane'a Eieetar lat Nlabc St Thomas' Church was comfortably filled by an appreciative and a cultured au dience last night, to listen to Bishop Keane's lecture upon his pilgrimage to the Holy. Land. The learned and eloquent prelate, after a short preface, took his au dience with him from the beginning of his journey through his entire pilgrimage, and in a most graphic and masterly man ner portrayed tne various scenes, de scribing the country and the incidents of his journey, explaining the geography of the Holy .Land and the many places ren dered dear and venerated to the Christian heart by their association with the life, Suf-' ferings and death of Christ. His discourse abounded with interesting descriptions of the country, climate and people, as well as of the Pyramids, the Sphinx, and the other wonders of that wonderful land. The por" ' trayal was so circumstantial and so brought home to his audience that it required little of their imagination to place themselves with him along his entire trip; and those who had the good fortune to hear him en-' joyed a treat indeed, at once eloquent, inter esting and literary. Not the least attractive feature of the evening was the vocal and instrumental music of the choir. This was all that could be desired; a cornet solo being among the instrumental music To night the learned divine delivers an-; other lecture, his subject being "The Light of the World." The music .will also be an interesting feature, and it is hoped that a large audience will again show their appre ciation of the occasion by being present. Attempted Burglary. ; An attempt was. made Tuesday night to burglarize the residence of Capt. H. B. Willis, on McRae, between Mulberry and Walnut streets, but the burglar was fright ened off, Capt W. sending a leaden mes senger after him as he fled. He used a key with which he was trying to unlock the door when he Was detected. Yesterday morning his tracks were plainly visible in the yard, and it was also. Been where he stripped off his shoes, the barefooted tracks being mixed with the others. mayor's Conrc Eugenia Reaves, colored, had a hearing before Mayor Hall on the charge of acting very disorderly over" in Brooklyn Tuesday, afternoon, for which jshe . was required to pay a fine of $5 or, go below for twenty days. ; Wm.

One of urilniliiKtoatft Createst Needs A PropoIU v ! Xwo on Market Street-Hitlr; to Seenre.Tbem, 4ce. - ; ,, Wilmington has long felt t the want of proper facilities lot supplying water in some public place- for the benefit of our country friends and others Who are tend ing market, or who la any event are at times desirous of watering their horses, but have no means of doing so without going to a great deal of trouble and incon venience. To remedy this lack of accom modation to visitors and Others Mayor Hall has come-tojseriously consider the propriety and expediency of purchasing two large fountains, establishing; one a the in-. Jataectioa- rthi -Maiket . streets and the other' at ' the intersection of Market and Front, streets. We have seen designs of the twa fountains that it is in contemplation to purchase. They are called "Hone Drinking' Fountains and Lamp Posts," and designed teally for en trances to parks and other public places, but are just as applicable to the places where Mayor Hall desires to put them in position. The one intended for the inter section of Front and Market streets is 12 feet 9 inches high to the bottom of the cen tre lamp, 2 feet 7 inches high to the top of the basin; extreme diameter of basin 8 feet 2 inches; inside diameter of basin 7 feet 2 inches. The fountain is surmounted by six lamps, and the cost is $1,000. , The one to be placed at the intersection of Fourth and Market streets is to be 10 feet 9 inches high to the bottom of the centre lamp, 2 feet 7 inches high to the top of the basin; extreme diameter of basin 5 feet 8 inces; inBide diameter of basin 4 feet 3 inches. The cost of this is $600, and it is surmounted by three lamps. The foun tains are handsomely bronzed and orna mented. Now Mayor Hall is very anxious about these fountains and wants them in place as quick as possible, knowing how useful as well as ornamental they will be to the city, but he does not propose that they shall cost the city in its corporate capacity anything at alL ,He wants to raise the money in some other-way. Knowing that the Agri cultural Society pf South Carolina was on the eve of holding a grand floral festival in Charleston, he determined to go there, examine the halls and get all the plans, diagrams and other information possible. with the view of holding a similar festival here to raise funds for the purchase of the proposed fountains; and the only thing re quired, in Mayor Hall's estimation, to make the thing a success, is a prompt and ener getic response on the part of ladies and others who may 'feel interested. In con nection with the proposed floral festival it is in contemplation to have refreshments. The Mayor says any quantity of strawber ries can be had in Charleston. It is also possible that a ball in the Opera House may be a part of the programme. In this connection, and with the idea of showing what is being done by Charleston in connection with its floral fair, we get some points from the New and Courier, which says: "The secretary of the society, Mr. E. L. Roche, has been actively engaged in push ing forward the work. It is proposed at present to use the main hall of their build ing for the exhibits and to serve refresh ments in the annex. Circular stands for the flowers will be placed all around the sides of the hall, within a short distance of each other, and the space between them will be occupied by. chairs. The body of the hall will be arranged as a miniature park, along the borders of which will be beauti ful avenues of trees, surrounding tables for cut flowers, beds of fancy flowers, a foun tain in operation and the whole having for its back ground, a dance hall, the sides of which will be formed of stands of potted flowers, the tout ensemble making a most charming and artistic picture." The society offers eighty or ninety pre miums, besides a large number of special premiums, as for instance: For the bestar tistic. design in flowers $80, and for the second best $20. . For the largest pansy blossom $1Q. For the best collection of table vegetables $10, for the second best $5. For the best four quarts of strawberries of the variety best adapted to general cultiva tion $5, and for the best four quarts of the variety of finest form, color and quality $5. Then there are rules and regulations for the government of the contestants for the spe cial premiums and for general exhibitors, The railroads have all agreed to sell excuz-4 sion tickets to Charleston during the exhibi tion, and we are satisfied that a similar ar rangement could be made with our roads. The proposed fountains are very hand some ones and will be both useful and or namental. Shall we have them ? It is for the people to say. The exhibition should come off during the height of the flower season. Let the response come at once. Foreign Export. The Danish barque Danabad, Capt. Hahn, was cleared from this port for Ant werp, yesterday, by -Messrs. Paterson, Downing & Co., with 4,022 barrels of rosin, valued at $4,115.45; also the British schr. Mary Culmer, :CapC Granger, for Nassau, N. P., by Messrs. Cronly & Morris and Parsley & Wiggins, with 119,857 feet lum ber and 180,500 shingles, valued at $3,162. Total, $7,277 45. Cbwreb Iaapravementa, We are glad to learn that there is a pros pect of some verjr decided improvements to the Fifth . Street Methodist Chnrch, inck ding a considerable enlargement, the addi tion of a tower, painting, etc. No doubt the liberal minded people of the commnnity will not be adverse to assisting in the good "'work to some extent. '". JSTEAMER BURNED. The Steamer Excelsior Destroyed by Fire. The steamer Excelsior, Capt H. L. Bow- dbin, left her wharf for FayettevMle yester day afternoon, shortly after1 1 o'clock,' and had reached a point in the first bend, above Point Peter, about 1.30 p. m. when, the cook appreachedtb'Tiaptain with the ii.ii.i iJtlJU'AL' tuLl t. wUl fire. The fire seems ts have started I be tween the boiler and. the galley, in the hold of the boat, and when discovered was pret ty well under way. An effort was made to extinguish it by the use of buckets, , the men not having time to adjust the hose, but not mucu was aucumpusucu. iu vuc uicau- time the steamer D. Murchuon came to the assistance of the boat -and did all that was possible towards saving her. Tta steamer Alpha alro approached, but turned back. The destruction of the boat was almost complete. Capt. Bowdoin states that she is nothing but" a shell. The machinery is also badly-; damaged. There was only about two hundred dollars worth of freight on board allof ; which was . lost J There was a flat attached to the boat, upon which the officers and crew took refuge, except Mr. Sri Robertson, one of the employes, who jumped overboard, but was rescued. ' The boat was the property of Mr. R. P Bowdoin, father of the captain, and was valued at about $2,500, being quite a small steamer. The loss wad about $2,000, in cluding freight and everything. Shs was. insured with Messrs. Atkinson & Manning for $1,800. - : The captain and men came back on the steamer D. Murehieon. , . Base Ball Blatters. The new Seaside Base Ball Club grounds are now in complete order for the first As sociation games to take place here on Tues day and Wednesday, the 5th and 6th of May, including the grand stand for the ac commodation of ladles and children, with a covering to proteet-them from the weath er. Officers will be on the grounds to pre serve order, which will be strictly enforced. A professional battery, consisting of Mr. H. KuW, pitcher, and Mr. C. F. Koocho- gey, catcner, are expected 10 arrive irom Baltimore this evening, when there will be practice on the grounds every day until the commencement of the contest with the club from Raleigh. The boyB have gone' to a great deal of trouble and expense to prepare themselves in such a manlier for the exciting game in which they are to engage as to reflect credit upon themselves and the community, and it is to-be hoped that the public will show a generous appreciation of their efforts. The games will probably be the most hotly con tested ever played in Wilmington, and should draw large crowds to witness them. Produce Exchange Standing Com mittees.
