Rev,s 5am Jones ' is a Methodist preacher, born in Alabama, and be longs to Georgia by adoption. .. He1 is well educated, is master of correct, nervous, pointed diction and knows how to speak the words of the com mon people. ; Hehas great power of somq. kind. Whilst highly educated ministers fail tooonvert one soul in - - 4 -- ' . " . a year's preaching of mellifluous rhe toric and thinly-served Gospel truth, this man, who strikes from the shoul der, and cares bat little for the so- called proprieties, moves men's hearts and consciences as they were never moved before. He is a man of great common sense and observation. He is the greatest revivalist since Paul and Peter and Apollos awoke the slumbering Jews and Gentiles with their flaming eloquence. Good. The Independents are squeal ing. The Philadelphia 2$mes has been standing up to the President with greattenacity, but it is weakening. It cries out that the guillotine is at work and it sorrows as it sees the heads of "offensive partisans" rolling in the straw. In great distress it asks: "Has the President weakened? Has he consented to a relaxation of the rule he be gan with, and are the spoils after all to go to the victors? The asking of questions presupposes a change and possibilities that have not been much looked for. By com mon consent, not to say as the result of Cabinet agreement, greater deliberation in knowing the antecedents and qualifications of candidates ror appointment will nerear ter be observed. The intelligent reader will not be at a loss to understand this. So many serious blunders have been commit ted, deeply injurious to the appointing pow er and likely to constitute so many counts in a future indictment by the Republicans, that the President and the Cabinet could not help realizing that better care must be exercised in future."

' ' ,,Xhe Seaside Base Ball Club returned last night, being obliged to leave' Henderson yesterday 'morning without playing the regular schedule game! '- The Club played in Goldaboro, Raleigh Durham; Oxford and. a three inning game io : Henderson. The bad weather at the latter place broke up the game on the first day and prevented the game on the second.' The Club was prevented from playing one game at Ra leigh, and one at Durham, also, on account of rain. Altogether-the.Club played six games, winning four of these. The two games lost, at Raleigh and Durham, were so close and the score so small, that the Seasides do not feel hurt at the way they turned -but ;;TheV CluB has been treated with the utmost kiridnera wherever it has been, and the people and papers have been lavish in their praise of the gentlemanly conduct - and ' bearing of its members. They return home impressed with the necessity of hard work if they wish to stand well at the end of the season with the other clubs of the League. Their field ing qualities are fine and compare well with, if they are not superior to, any other dub in the State; but their batting has not been as good as some of the others. They intend to strengthen this weak .point in their playing, and will make things lively for Goldsboro, Durham and Oxford in the six games to be played here in June. - The boys come home in good health, and feeling satisfied with the work they have -done and the reputation they have made, not only as ball-players, but as high toned gentlemen. Xtae Gat and tho Canaries. Wednesday night, at a late hour, two of the police force were in the neighborhood of Fourth and Campbell streets, when their ears were suddenly saluted by a suc cession of sounds from a neighboring resi dence, suggestive of the discovery of a bur glarious attempt and a struggle with a bur glar. The sound of a female voice, rising above 'the general djn, appealing to Mr. to "come quickly, as the dog was about to be overpowered," added to the suspicion that robbers were..; at their nefarious work. The : officers rushed to the scene; confident . of capturing thefdaring burglar and marching him triumphantly to the guard house; when, upon entering, the premises whence the sounds had proceeded, they found that a cat had caught and devoured the lady's two pet canaries, when she turned the dog into the room to catch and devour the cat.. Then the trouble began The cat, scam pered around the room, made several inef fectual efforts to go through the closed windows', then bounded upon the mantel piece, making a lively rattle among the adornments of the same, while injthe mean time the dog was doing his level best to carry out the wishes of his master and mis tress. Before the final cat astrophe was reached, however, the two policemen a-p peared and put an end to the scene. Rev. Jno. If. Andrews. We learn (in addition to what we have already stated) that Mr. Andrews died sud denly about 11 o'clock on Monday night, at the residence of Rev. J. W. Heptin stall. In Halifax county, about six miles from Lillington, after a long day's ride on his circuit. The Goldsboro' Argus puts his age at 50. It was probably a little more than that. His remains were to arrive in Goldsboro', Wednesday, at 12 o'clock, and the funeral was to take place from St. Paul's M..E. Church at 4.30 o'clock on. that day. Rev. Dr. Burkhead, in a short communication in the New Berne Journal, says of him: ' "Bro. Andrews joined the N. C. Con ference at Pittsooro, N. C, 1854. For 31 years he has been a faithful and successful minister of the gospel. Hundreds, perhaps thousands of souls have been converted, to God through his instrumentality. But the battle of life Is ended and he has gone' to bis glorious reward in heaven. 'Servant of God well-done.'

Mayor Hall had quite a number of cases before him yesterday morning. J. S.

Appreciating this he was let off on the payment of $3. -James Evans and James -Waddell, two colored boys, charged with acting very dis orderly in the southern section of the city, which drew forth a complaint from the order-loving residents, were ordered to pay a fine of $5 each; they to be relieved from the payment of the same on condition that their parents inflict a proper chastisement. .
