The Morning Star, , By 1 ATS H. BERNARD. WILMINGTON, N. C. EVENING EDITION. Wednesday, Dec. 21, 6 P. M. CANNING AND MANCFAC TURI fi. The Sta-b has many times urged that there should be canning estab lishments in Wilmington. They would givo employment to many people and would be a source of pro fit to those controlling them. The -f - canning industry is very important in many places, and of great advan tage to thousands of laborers. An " oyster canning industry cannot be developed here until there is railroad coucection with the best oyster , . grounds. But there might be a veg ; , etable canning industry here, and our people could eat home vegetables instead of relying upon rock-ribbed and ice bound New England for sup plies. People generally have no idea of the canning business of the United States. We gather some statistics from the Manufacturers' Record, of Baltimore : "Over 1,000,000,000 cans are used an nually by the consumers of this country. The weight of the metal used in their man ufacture was 110,000,000 pounds, at a cost of $45,000,000 remember this is the cost , , ". . of the cans." 7 r '-bathe South has lacked, and still lacks are enterprise and industry : Vir j 7 "Ta capacity and willingness to util- 4s"? 2reat advantages that lie at i-'??' When it manufactures its -furniture, carriages, wagons, buggies, wheelbarrows, machinery, v. tarmmg utensils, cans, &c, and raises its own beef, meat, flour, hay, vegetables, fcc., it will indeed have entered upon that road which leads : to independence- and prosperity. It will not make that trip until it has abandoned present methods. "Nearly everything worn, eaten, used in the household or on the farm is made elsewhere and Comes from the North. That means dependence, slavery, po'yerty. A change is needed. The South needs a great many small -manufactures aud a more genera .'diversifying of products and em ployments. ' I?l?f. -" " UNEASINESS. w : President Carnot is meeting with ; . i difficulties at the outset of his term of office. . The extreme Republicans iuyb yeu uiBappuiuwa in mm ana are complaining and conspiring to oar; to mm that ousted President Grevy from his high pffice. The WewPresident is too much of a con servative :ttoi meet the demands and expectations of the radical wing of theijlepublican partyiHis first me aagewaB .temperate and practical. -This outrages the temper of the men whoixegard Rochefort as an oracle 'and bis paper as the sun shining in the 'political heavens. Paris has a large element that is diseordantr dis Y eatisfied'and threatening raent is under;the contr of .the r most ultra lead era :$re " disaatiafied r-wth Presi dent Carnot and his. views. It need Uot uprise if Jithe pear future ran if tmnt li a llriifrom i an attempt is . made to drive ' from office the very man selected in place of the able Grevy. They will fail probably. The Stab mentioned that Aus tralia was overrun by rabbits and af ter trying every way to exterminate them had at last offered $125,000 for a remedy. The distinguished M. Pasteur, of Paris, has written to the . v , Temps suggesting relief to the af flicted Australians. It is to poison them wholesale, and by using mi crobes. He says it can be done. He would use "a poison endowed with life" and that can 'multiply" a great deal faster than the rabbits can mul tiply. He would use the miorobe of chicken cholera. He tells his expe nence and says: "I collected within a limited space a cer tain number of chickens, and after 1 bad given them some food poisoned with the microbe which is the cause of chicken cholera, they died on the spot. Farmyards are sometimes ravaged by true epidemics of this SDecies. the Dronasration of which is doubtless due to the infection of soil and food by the excrement' of those which are. first seized with the disease. I fancy that the same would happen in the case of rab bits, and that, returning to their burrows to die there, they would communicate the disease to others, which in turn would spread it. But how could the destructive germs be conveyed into the bodies of the first rabbits t Nothing is easier. I would make an inclosure covering a certain space where the rabbits look for food. It is difficult to ascertain the facts in regard to Ireland from Tory sources. Let us illustrate this. The Prime Minister, Lord Salisbury, re cently addressed a British audience and positively assured them that "nobody in Ireland is turned out of a house he has built; all such state ments are falsehoods." In the face of this here is a known instance; an Irish farmer owed 36 rent. He was evicted. He is homeless now. He had over $1,000 of buildings on the farm that he had erected. The Tories are not agreed among them selves as to the condition of Ireland. Different representations are made. Tory papers represent one condition and Secretary Balfour represents another condition of aff airs. Enough is known to authorize the belief that the condition is bad, and would be worse but for the long-suffering and forbearance of the Irish people. John Bright stood up for the North in its vindictive war upon the South. Now he stands with his life long opponents, the Tories, in their persecuting, vindictive war upon the Irish. For thirty years he fought the Tories and accused them of co ercion. Now, he fights Mr. Glad stone and the Liberals and the Home Rulers and charges them with wrong, while he sustains the Tories. As late as 1880, in his speech to the Birmingham electors, he spoke in these broad and distinctive terms: ' "We come now to this kind of conclu sion with regard to the present Govern ment, that they are an administration which, during six years, have made no pro gress in England, and they have done nothing to create peace and contentment in Ireland; and so long as the Tory party and administration are in power I believe there will be no progress in England, and there will be no settled contentment in the sister country." He is the man that assails and criticizes Mr. Gladstone. The Blair bill is again up. It will probably become a law, unless the constitutional President intervenes I with his veto. We are thankful that I the bill does not propose to appro- I pnate $200,000,000 instead of the enormous sum of $79,000,000. It is one of the most dangerous bills that ' were ever introduced, and if adopted will prove the entering wedge that will finally split the constitution into fragments. We will have something I to say and at more length of this dvnamit WUlat.mn u Rtt, ! exposed its objectionable features in a score or more of editorials in the past, it is time -Democrats quit talking about Constitutional theories, limitations aud p owers if this wood en horse is driven throught it. The gap will steadily widen. In the exquisite Christmas number of Scribner's Magazine there is a striking poem by that remarkably j gifted author, Robert Louis Steven- l bod, enuuea a iconaeroga. it is I finely illustrated and is founded on fact. In the London Letter of the N. Y. Times of Sunday, we find the following concerning it: "Lord Archibald Campbell writes deny- ing tbat either a Stewart or a Cameron is involved. He says the two men were Campbell of Inverawe and - Macaniven.

The manufacturing nations of the world tbat admit wool and other raw materials free of tax are France, Eagland, Germany, Austria, Hun gary, Italy, the Netherlands, Bel gium, Portugal, Sweden, Denmark and Chili. Some of these nations are protectionist, and some are free trade. Nearly all of them are large wool growers, but they are, not guilty of the economic folly of bandioappicg their own woollen industries by bar barous taxes upon tbe raw materi als. Among the nations that tax wool and other raw materials are the United States, Russia, Roumania. Servia, Spain, Canada, Mexico, Bra- I zu, i uricey, unma ana rem. from I an economical point of view it must be admitted that this country 'is found in rather bad company. Poor Spam has protected her industries nearly out of existence, and as for the rest of these wool-tariff associ ates of the United States well, as Dogberry remarked: "Comparisons are odorous?' Phil. Record, Dem. Among the distractions prom ised in the House after recess is the introduction Blair Educational 'bill in tbe shape in which it passed the Stnate in the last Congress. It is supposed that tne iavor wnn wnicn some of tne Legislatures of Southern States have regarded this bill will have an influ ence upon the votes of Southern Congressmen, and that the decrease of the Democratic majority in the House gives it a better chance if in 1 doTsed by the Republican caucus as a party measure. Much stress is laid upon the sentiment in Virginia; but as that State has just succeed ed in establishing its financial policy on tne Dasis ot repudiation at the will of the Lesssiature. and has. moreover, given almost unanimous expression in favor of the entire repeal of the tax on tobacco, the motives which influence its indorse ment of the Blair bill are not free from suspicion of selfishness. It is hard to believe that this absurd scheme, if introduced, again, can be successful. Boston Post, Dem. THE BLAIR MONSTROSITY. - Washington Post, Dem.

SUPREME CO UBTDKCI8J ON 8 Raleigh News-Observer. Powell vs. Morrisey. Held, tbat the jurisdiction of courts of equity to reform instru ments does not extend to the correc tion of voluntary conveyances unless bv consent of all partiew The performance of a moral duty I is reoognizea in equity as a meruu rious or imperfect consideration and within narrow limits where a promise based on such a consideration has been imperfeotly performed, equity will under certain rules enforoe it. But this equity extends only to cases involving the duties of charity, of paying creditors or tnaintainiog a wife and children or persons to whom tho promisor stands in loco parentis. Grandchildren are not by nature within this ' relationship, and al though it may be proved tbat the grandfather intended to assume the duty and office of the father in ma king provision for the grandchildren, yet until that fact is proved, it can not be seen by the Court. In the absence of proof of that fact, tbe voluntary gift of a grandfather to grandchildren will not be held to in volve the meritorious consideration of equity and the Court cannot cor rect an omission in the conveyance. State v. CroweoD. Tho defeudant wa charged vriib the murder of her four-year-old child by drowning him in the river in Mitchell county. The testimony of witnesses showed tbat they pressed her to tell what she had done with her child, and "finally we told her that she had to tell, and the deputy sheriff told her if she would take him to the place where she last had the child, he would tell with a crooked stick what she bad done with it," and "we told her to come out and fell the trnth about it and confess it all;" it would be best for her to tell." She carried the deputy sheriff to tbe river and became very much agitated, and said "if anybody want ed their negroes drowned, bring them to her." Held, This conduct and this re mark were in the nature of a confes sion, and were responsive to tbe me nace "that she had to tell.'. Confessions to be admissible must be voluntary and not obtained by tne mnaence or. nope or tear, ap- plied by a third person to the pns- oners mind. The ruling by whioh ' tbe judge undertakes to define the influence that should exclude a confession, if erroneous, is the subject of review; but the finding of tbe court that in fluence was or was not exercised in any particular case is the finding of a fact and is not subject to review. From the record in this case the reception of thq testimony may ad the holiday I mt two nterPre-tionJ n pre lon of the I BaPP08eB a ruling that the confession am not come irom me innoence brought to bear upon the prisoner; the other, that the evidence was re ceived without any determination of the preliminary question.' In a matter involving human life the court will take the latter view and consider that this duty of the Judge was overlooked. He might have ruled out the confession so damaging to the prisoner. There must be a new trial. rOLITICAIlJ?OIN T8. Put wool on the free list. The peupie wans caeap woojien cioming. me wool interest nas bad its dav.

Yesterday opened with a warm r&to, but by 9 a. m. snow tte- ga to fall, and at noon the mercury had sank from 45 to 15 degrees, and a moderate blizzard was skipping around rattier lively. During tbe afternoon, and last- night , the mercury gradually fell, and at midnight the thermometer marked 10 degrees , with a high, flerca wind prevailing. Very little snow fell, and no trouble of the railroads in this section is yet reported. Kansas Citt. Dec. 21. The Timet has telegraphic advices which indicate that tbero is terrible suffering in the western oart of Kansas. Four people are reported dead in Clark county from cold, while near ' Dfghton, Kansas, a woman and her two children are known to have perished. There is great suffering in that section of the 8tate owing to the scarcity of coal. The supply was exhausted during tbe pre vious cold snap in the first part of the month, and the- situation is now de plorable. The suffering is augment ed by the fact tbat food U almost as scarce as fuel. Many of the inhabitants are settlers wuo located claims last summer, and who are dependent on what the railroads bring in. Tbe railroads are trying to do all in their power to relieve the distress, but they are handicapped by the scarcity of cars. They bave not enough to supply the urgent de mand for food and fuel, and widespread distress is inevitable unless the weather speedily moderates. Tbe Santa Fe Road has already announced mat it win snip iree all mpplies which may be collected for Clatk county. M UTNTt A polis, Dae 21. Tbe etorm which started yesterday and still continues furiously in Minnesota, is by far tho worst of tbe season. Tbe wind is strong, and tbe snow is drifting badly. The storm was general in the northwest. It was accom panied by very cold weather in Dakota and Northwest Territory, the lowest point reached being 23 degrees below zero, at Fort Asainabolne. At 5 o'clock yesterday the etorm bad stopped at all points in Da kota except Bismarck, and was moving fast. Trains are delayed somewhat, but as et there is no general interruption of bubiness. It the storm continues all day, however, many railroad blockades must ensue. Several inches of enow have en Chicago, Dec. 21. The rain, mud and slush which yesterday afternoon made life in Chicago a burden, gave place during tbe night to a cold wave from tbe northwest. It came with a rusb, and inside of twelve hours there was a drop of 85 degrees in the temperature. The Signal Service reports tbe thermometer at 5 degrees above zero in the early morning hours; at 0 o'clock it was 10 above, but, though at 10 o'clock tbe sun shone brightly, its rays bad but slight w&rmi&g effect. The indictUons are tbat tbe cold blast will hover over this region for at least twenty four hours longer, nd thdl a lower point on the thermometer will bo reached. The wind during the night reached a velocity of twenty-four miles an hour.'but has dropfttd to six miles. At 8 o'clock this morniog Port Totten, Dak., reported the temperature at 20 degrees below; at Denver it was 14 below, and al Montrose 20 below. Away down at Fort Davis, Texas, the inhabitants were revelling in tbe novel luxury of a snow storm, and at San Francisco the thermometer stood at 28 above. PERSON A. It.
