Whigs can frame half as good a bill
as the one they may defeat. If no
settlement Is made now how will it
be in Ireland hereafter? Can the co
ercive deviltry proceed, with Salis-
bury, Hartington, Chamberlain . and
Churchill in front of the band, with'
Wolseley . as drum-taajor? The
Charleston News and CourUr hits
the nail on the head when it says:
They who object to Mr. Gladstone'
proposition ought to be ready to offer a
better plan of their own. The controlling
reason ia that the failure to pacify Ireland
now will undoubtedly aggravate the diffi
culty of settlement, and that, for the exist
ing condition of affairs, England, through,
the Act of Union, is responsible.'
Rev. Dr. Cornelias B. Riddick
formerly President of Kitrell Female
College and Oxford Female College,
is now one of the leaders on the Pa
cific slope and is a delegate to the
General Conference. He rankB with
the finest preachers ia the Union.
When he left- North Carolina we
said he had left no peer in oratory
behind him and we believed it. And
yet the North Carolina Conference
had no place for him. Here is a de
licious morsel for all so-called North
Carolinians who delight in derviding
the "Old North State."
Some time ago three of the An
archists were invited to a conference
by some wealthy and prominent men
in Cbicago. bpies is reported as talk-J
mg after this style. The report says:
'He laughed as he described the attempt
made on the British House nf Parliament
He said that if the assailants had known
their business they would have placed bet
ter bombs there, but- not that alone: they
would have placed them where the hall was
crowded. We have nothing personal
against you,' he said, referring to the gen
tlemen present, 'but we want your proper
ty. We do not believe in the destruction
of property as the means of reform, but
the destruction of life. We need the oroo
erty."' Mr. Powderly's second address is
attracting much attention. It was
secret and was not intended for the
public eye. In it he says:
"I hate the word boycott. I was boy
cotted ten years ago, and could not get
work at my trade for months. It is a bad
practice handed to us by the capitalists. I
have no use for it, only when everything
else fails."
He disapproves of strikes, except
as a last resort. He urges the
Knights of Labor t boycott strong
drink only, to improve their minds
and to learn toleration. Excellent
advice that.
We believe now that the .Gladstone
bill will be defeated. The London
special to the New York. World says
the majority is. now believed will be
fully forty, and defection is going
on all the time. Mr. O'Connor, M.
P., cables the New York Star on the
11th that the Gladstone men are in
fear. Chamberlain, he saysis cred
ited with fifty votes.

and reflected great credit upon the children .

ed the children to bring in something made
by themselves, and the very fine display of
the past two days shows that there have
I been few ones in school since the re-
I quesi was maae.
The object of the teachers' is not only to
train the head and heart, but also toencou .
rage the pupil to learn to "turn a hand" to
that which is practical. The'exhibit was a

possible greater success may crown future
efforts.

REV. It. H. ARMSTRONG.
A meeting of colored citizens of various
denominations was held last night at the
rooms of the Young Men's Christian Asso
ciation, to bid farewell to the Rev. R. H.
Armstrong, late pastor of the Chesnut
Street Presbyterian Church, who leaves the
city this morning for his new field of labor
in Philadelphia.
Dr. H. H. Butler was called to the chair
and Wm. Arnold was elected secretary.
Ihe ministers of nearly all denomina
tions in the city were present, and many
members of their congregations. Speeches
were made by Revs. D. J. Sanders, A. J.
Chambers, Jas. W. Telfair and others. A
purse was presented to Rev. Mr.' Arm
strong, through Dr. Butler, and happily
responded to. A collation which was pro
vided, was enjoyed by all present.
A committee appointed for the purpose,
reported the following . resolutions, which
were unanimously adopted by a rising vote:
Whereas, The Rev. R H. Armstrong,
who for some time oast has filled the nninit
of the Chesnut Street Presbyterian Church
of this city, is about to take his departure
jrum our cuy ior otner neias or labor, and
it being deemed a fitting occasion for the
citizens generally of the community in
pression of the high esteem which they have I
entertained for him, and also to express I
wuwu no una recently resided to give ex-
their admiration and appreciation of the
wonny example wnicn he has given us as a
Christian gentleman of rare intellectual
ability; therefore, be it
Setolved, That to our youne men whnaa
ambition; makes them tbe -hope and
promise of our race, we commend as an
example worthy of imitation, the upright
manner, the chivalric , bearing and the dis
tinguished ability of; our esteemed guest,
whom we assemble to night to honor.
xeaoivea, it is with inexpressible
regret, that we- learned of his intended de-
!)arture, and that as a minister whose
earning and eloquence have been pleasing
attractions for all and rich Christian feast3
for the co-workers and believers of the
cause in which he is so earnestly laboring.
we congratulate the communitywhich may

bid him God-speed in his journey .

Ad-
Beneficial Kffecc of Democratic
ministration.
The Raleigh News and Observer says:
From statements made in the Witm;
ton papers it anneara that thn nnnr.tr
fW.HaOT?r .rcaHy out of-debW
This is an illustration of the beneficial effect
of a Democratic administration of affairs
and of the wisdom of the existing system
of county government. It has not been
many years since New Hanover's financial
condition was apparently hopeless. Had it
occu leu in me nanas 01 the Republicans it
would have remained so, but Under the
honest, careful management of Democrats
with interests of their own in the county to
belguarded men of character and Business
sagacity it has been so much improved
that the county is now actually out of debt
and considesed abundantly able to build a
new $50,000 court house, which is needed
and which is asked by certain citizens. The
difference in favor of Democratic as against
Republican administration of affairs is in
no respect more striking than in the matter
of economy of public money, and the peo
ple have found this out.
