He is now back in the g. o. p., and is a candidate for the Legislature. The Messenger, re prints the old demagogue's former ad vocacy of the Demooraoy.

"It was a Democratic Legislature that In. fused new life into the free schools iu this State, for before they took hold of the free school system it was a mere sham.- The Republicans had so squandered the free school funds that there was no money left to support the schools.

The New York Commercial Bulletin of October 11th says: As foreshadowed in the Bulletin a few days ago, the president ' of the Cotton Exchange yesterday ap pointed a committee to consider again the classification question. Superintendent Powers made tbe following official state- ment in regard to it: "The subject of es tablishing an inspection of cotton, by which a certificate shall be issued for cot ton delivered on contracts, has been dis cussed by members of .the Exchange for some years, and on four occasions definite plans were submitted by the Board of Man agers, tut were defeated when brought to the final vote of the Exchange. Latterly there has been a decided change in the feeling amongst, the members, especially those who deal in spot cotton, and in view of this change the Board of Managers have authorized the appointment of a committee of five to consider and report upon the sub ject of a change in the form of contract. The sentiment of the Exchange appears to favor a certificate for all cotton tendered on contract, which shall be issued with a te sponsible guarantee of the grades and weights, and to be transferred from seller to buyer in the same manner as a certifi cate of stock. By some euch method any one who wants to hold actual cotton as an investment, or as a speculation, will be able, to deliver at the same grade as received. The committee ia R. P. Salter, S. Ranger, J.

A ruddy looking youth, about sixteen years of ace, entertained a number of gen tlemen yesterday with a remarkable story of his journeying from ML Airy, in the western part of this State to Wilmington, viaNewbern. The boy gave his came as Charles Car ter. He said that he left his home near Mt. Airy about three weeks aeo in a small dugout made from a chestnut ;log, in which he paddled and drifted down the Yadkin river many miles, when he had his canoe hauled over to Haw river, down which he travelled about ten miles, and then engaged a colored man with a team to' transport his boat to the Neuae. Con -tinning his journey on this river he reached Newbern, and from that place came to Wilmington through the sounds. The boat in which he claims to have made this won derful trip he said he had sunk at one of the docks in the lower part of the city. Tbe motive for the journey was to look for an uunt, his father and mother both being dead. In Newbern he learned that his aunt had removed to Wilmington; but upon his arrival here he was told that she was also dead. A gentleman who felt interested in the boy's condition supplied his immediate wants and furnished him with lodgings last, night, and also sent an employe down the river to search for the boat, which if found may tend to - substantiate the truth of this remarkable adventure. RIagltrate' Court. Henry Froze was arraigned in Justice Millis' court yesterday, charged .with as sault and battery, on Ann i Brown. He paid the costs and was discharged.

Stedman was then called upon by the chairman to introduce the first speaker of the evening Colonel Alfred Rowland. Maj. Stedman did this most happily, alluding in graceful terms to bis intimate acquaintance and long intimacy with Col. Rowland, as well as to the peculiar rela tions recently existing between them. At the conclusion of his introductory speech, and after the applause occasioned thereby had subsided, the Cornet Concert Club struck up "Dixie," and the audience ap plauded to the echo ( Col. Rowland then advanced, and after alluding to his previous acquaintance with the people of Wilmington in complimentary terms, proceeded to deliver a most forci ble, impressive and exhaustive speech upon the questions of the day.

When Col. Rowland had concluded, Mr. W. B.L McKoy gracefully intro-; duced Maj. Charles. W McCIammy, Democratic candidate for Congress in the Third District, and alluded in appropriate terms to the obligation all citizens of Wil mington felt to Maj. McCIammy for past services. After music by the Concert Club Maj. . McCIammy arose and at once placed him self in accord with his audience. His speech was strong, terse and aggressive, and added largely to the enviable reputation he had previously made here as a canvasser and 'io m nQTirnoi" " Manv rt Vi i a 'rkiita" mart most happily made and caused much merriment,' and all of his logic was sound, well put and admirably delivered. No better speech for the time and the oc casion has been heard in Wilmington in years, and Maj.
