He is a man of remarkable parts evidently. He was ploughing in 1865. : Now he is a United States Senator, r Mr. Randall, of the Au gasta Chronicle, says of him: . " i "The speech made to day by Senator ttcuun.wsa a most noiaDie one.: ue mei the views of Mr. Edmunds with masterly igor,"Bna prorea mmselt an orator and statesman oi me nrst class. Me is a modest man in spite of ambition and success. His physique is that of a young gladiator, with the great lion-like head of Webster. A more splendid specimen of true Southern manhood does not exist ; and a more lovable man I never met. He is regarded as a very wise young man, as he is valiant and patriotic . I rejoice at his success and have always predicted it. He used Blaine's second volume - with terrible effect upon Edmunds, who manifestly felt the punish ment but tried to conceal it. The Vermont Senator has not been so severely handled in many a day." ! President Madison is quoted a being in agreement with President Cleveland's position as to Executive authority. Daniel Webster clearly sustains him, as the following will show. Mr. Webster said: "Applications for office or letters re specting appointments or conversations held with individuals on such subjects are not official proceedings, and cannot by any means be made to partake of the character of official proceedings, unless, after the nomination of such person so writing or conversing, the President shall think proper to lay such correspondence or such conver sations before the Senate." ' Any Tarheel left out in the cold should qualify himself for Federal office at once, getting Senator Vance to adopt him into the family. This would seem to be an ad vance in the right direction. PhUa. News. As bright a paper as the Neios ought not to allow personal animosi ties to do injustice to a man of integ rity and parts. Senator Van ce has been often tried and his hands are clean. That ancient lie about his . numerous relations in office ought not to find a place in any paper that pre- tends to decency or character. There is a "National Type-Setting I Tournament" now progressing in Philadelphia. MrT W. G. Barnes, of the New York World, who is now the champion; Mr. Joseph McCann, of the Herald, ex-champion, and other representatives of leading dailies are among the contestants. Mr. Barnes shows his skill by setting type from reversed cases, setting type while blindfolded, and other tricks. r . Mr. Randall," on'the 10th, wrote as follows of Senator Vance, refer ring to his "noble nature." Said Vance to him: "If I were President of one pf those corporations (railroads), I would make it so popular that the children would cry for it. When a locomotive kills an old -woman's cow why don't the management pay her for it at once instead of feeing a lot of lawyers to make a $10 animal cost as much as an elephant T That's where the people get mad and begin to kick. More justice and less litigation is what the people want." Spirits Turpentine. A Swain county walnut tree was sold last week for $500 as it stood. It was cut down and shipped North.

In attempting to board the train, while in motion, he missed his footing, and ; his left foot was run over by a car wheel and almost severed near instep. The leg was also badly braised. He had to undergo the amputation of the foot, near the ankle joint. - Ashe ville Citizen : Oar special correspondent at Salisbury sends us the following of yesterday's date: A most das- tardlv attempt was made to burn this town last night by a half-witted negro named Jim Blackmer. He built a huge bonfire under the . store of Mr. Theo. Buerbaum. The smoke attracted the attention of the policemen, and going to the rear of the premises discoYered the incendiary making off in the dark. He fired three shots, all takinff effect. The prisoner implicates an other negro named Harrison Jones, who naid Blackmer three dollars to do the work. ' The greatest excitement prevails, and talk of lynching is freely indulged in.

Norris was 'yesterday arraigned before JSsquire D. G. Maxwell on the charge of obtaining goods under false pretenses. The charge was preferred by Mr, W. F. Bennett, from -whom Nor- ris had obtained goods under the rep resentation that he had charge of the three colored churches in this vicinity, and was consequently - able to pay for them. It transpired that JX orris was serving no church at all, and was a shepherd without a flock. In default of bail he was sent to ail to await trial by Judge Meares. A serious-accident occurred at Fedden's res taurant, in the Charlotte Hotel, yesterday, where workmen were engaged in the con struction of an oven for Fedden's bakery. A colored man named Foster was inside the oven putting on some finishing touches when the top of the oven caved in, and the workman Was buried under a pile of brick and mortar. Foster was taken out in a badly injured condition, but no serious re sults are feared. Weldon News: Mrs. M. M. Harrison, of Ringwood, relict of the late Col. John H. Harrison, died Sunday, March 7, at the age of 65 years. She. was a consistent member of thi M. E. Church, South. The vestry of Trinity Epis copal Church, Scotland Neck, a short time ago called to the rectorship, the Reverend Herbert Robinson, of Canada, and on Sun day last he preached his first sermon to his new charge, having arrived the day before. Thursday of last wees one or the porters of a sleeping car went into the A. C. L. hotel and offered to take a seat at a table with a lady. He was told that he could not do so, hut he persisted and re fused to go to the place prepared for colored people. "He was snmmarily ejected, but not until there had been a scuffle and the constable had been called in. Mr. ope's Redwing, by Outcast, Dam Red- slipper, is now in training at Sheepshead Bay. New York, in Mr. Pureell's stable. Reports from her says that she will be a fine racer. We learn that a party of Northern gentlemen are purchasing large quantities of timber in Northampton coun ty, between Jackson and the river. It is said that a tram road will be built to the riverover which the timber will be hauled and then floated down the river. We also hear that several thousand dollars were paid out last week for this purpose. The passengers who pass through here, at east those who are able to do so, are in the habit of throwing money out in order to see the colored boys race and wrestle for it, and sometimes quite a crowd ot them coi- ect under the shed. Uneday last weea this species of sport was engaged in and the boys became so intent upon it, mat one of the number, Dave Malone, about twelve years old, received severe injuries by being trampled upon, from the effects of which he died Sunday. niEtr ADVBKTisisinKni' ATTEimoif Hibernians.

It will be celebrated in this city by the Hi bernian Association, the members of which will assemble in full regalia at Vollers' Hall, on Front street; at 9 a. m. We learn that a very handsome compliment was paid the Fire Department for the heroic and successful 'manner in which they fought the fiery element on Sat urday night last, by Rev. E. A. Yates, D. D., at the Sabbath morning services of his church. - The Stab had a "close call" Saturday night, but the committee on luck reported promptly, and our Twinkler ap peared on schedule time Sunday morning There's nothing like having the left hind- foot of a graveyard rabbit in your pocket.'

Our field editor, who had so often followed him through forest and field, mourns the death of the grand old dog. ' During the fire, Saturday night, when the destruction of the Stab building seemed imminent, many kind friends came forward "and tendered their services. Among these we feel that we ought to make public mention of Messrs. Jackson & Bell, who not only offered to take charge of anything that might be removed from our building, but also assured us that they would render us. the", necessary' facilities for getting out our Sunday edition. .Such acta. .are kind and neighborly, and are 'not easily fqrgot-tef.--1 " I Saturday Nlsbt's Fire. JT.X,' l-' ? j There were m&ny visitors yesterday to the scene of Saturday night's fire on Water street. - Crowds of idle men and boys were oh the street, watching the work pf remov ing safes from the debris of the burned buildings, while , others bent on adding a trifle to their " worldly possessions were it rummaging; in the.' ruins for imaginary nickels, concealed in a heterogenous collec tion of ashes, cinders and water-soaked salt fish, soap and other groceries. Laborers were-busy, already, cleaning brick from the debris, getting out the safes, and gathering iron and odds and ends that werje consid ered worth preserving. There were nine fire-proof safes that went through the fiery ordeal and were taken from the ruins yes terday, morning. The contents of all of them were found to be in a pretty fair con dition, when opened;, a proceeding which was - watched with the greatest interest, particularly by the agents of safe manufacturing companies in the city. It was noticeable that canvas-covered ledgers and day books were scarcely scorched, while leather-bound books in the" tame safes didnot stand the beat so well, and were warped, peeled and discolored. The losses and insurance are as follows: ; Col. Jno. W. Atkinson, Joss on brick buildings, frame warehouse and wharf, $7,000; partially insured.

A negro man carried a large packing trunk into "Messrs. Marshall & Manning's store during the progress of the fire and asked permission to leave itr saying that it belonged to his brother 'who would call for it. He refused, to give his name. The trunk belonged to Messrs. Keith & Hol lingsworth. A gentleman saw a colored man pick up an armful of caddies of tobac co and run off with them up Princess street. He pursued him but was unable to overtake him and the fellow escaped. But for all this there were hundreds of colored men who saved a great deal of property from the flames, and without asking or ex pecting any remuneration for their services. - The guests at The Orton were much alarmed, and some pf them removed their baggage fom the house.. The telephone wires were damaged by the fire to some extent,but all the necessary repairs were made by soon yesterday. Criminal court.
