Mr. Belmont, chairman of the committee on Foreign Affairs, says there is a good prospect for an early settlement of the Chinese question, and that in the pending treaty with Great Britain there is no clause for the extradition of a citizen of the United States for any political offence; the Senate in secret session ' has postponed the consideration of the latter treaty until next December.

SUBSCRIPTION, It? will be well for the friends of the two'railroad subscriptions to be submitted to the voters of Wilmina- toa, March 1, to organize. The onlv danger to be apprehended is in a failure to bring the requisite number of voters to the polls. A "maioritv of the registered vote (not simply of those who vote) must be polled in favor of the subscriptions to -make them valid; and to avoid any possi- Diuty of legal complications after wards, that majority should be made as large as possible. Let it not be forgotten that the friends of sub scription must bnng their voters to the polls, while the votes of all who remain away from the polls coant against subscription just the same as if they were cast that way. There are only seventeen workine days before the election, and what ever is to be done should be done quickly. There should be a strong, active organization in each Ward, and the Stab suggests that immedi ate steps be taken, through public meetings or otherwise, as may seem best, to perfect such organization. 'The Stab favors both proposi tions, believing that neither can be carried without a combination of the friends of both; and feeling that if subscription is defeated now, the whole question may be indefinitely postponed. Senator Blair announced yesterday that he would ask the Senate to dis pose of his educational scheme to day. After some discussion it was unanimously decided to vote on the question next Wednesday at 3 o'clock. Very good. Let it pass the Senate and go. to the House, where it will doubtless be properly Aa tovvjvvi v& J asii Qsvuvcibi v who come directly from the people. Here is an item that will interest some of our readers: "Mr. Buckley, a California millionaire. says the Irish Times, offered to make Mr. Parnell his beir. and on being rebuffed asked Mr. ParaeH to nsme somebody elee.', By the way, it l not generally known that there was a very promi nent Irish leader by the name of Par nell in the last century. We take it that the preseat distinguished leader of that name is a relative. Since the year 1865 the people have been taxed to pay the Federal pensioners $870,000,000 eight hun dred and seventy millions of dollars. The South is paying annually quite twenty-five millions to Yankee sol diers. This is about $1.2 5 for every man, woman and child in the whole South. This is what the toilers must pay. The North distrusts all Southern men who have not crawled on their bellies and kissed the hand-that smote them. The only trusted Sontherners are Longstreet, Mahone, Key, Mosby, and a few politicians of the same kidney. What a wonderful magician Bis marck is. He' can utter a few words and the whole continent of Europe thrills with the gladness they pro duce. He can speak to the agitated sea of contention and at once all is peace and quiet. Boucicault, the playwright, says he wishes that Adam had died with all his ribs in his body. What a lonesome time father Adam would have had. He would have died of the "dry rot." The members of the' British House of Commons are afraid of dynamite. The police are swarming like flies about the House. "Thus conscience makes cowards of us all." 'Last year the total foreign immi gration was 509,281. Of this num ber Great Britain, including Ireland, furnished 176,563 which is 57,21 more than in 1886. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. Mmr son New stock. .

Pilots report that a large stick of timber submerged in the river near Kidder's mill, is a dangerous obstruc tion to navigation. The types made us say Mrs. J. Walton at the September booth of the Festival of Months, instead of Mrs. J. P. Woolvin. The picture of Rev. Dr. Burk- head in the January booth of the Fes ivalof Months is a very credita ble production of the handiwork of a young lady of this city. Mr. Pelham, general agent for Major Pond's -attractions, and repre senting Levy, the cornetist, is in the city to arrange for entertainments to be given here on- the 18th inst.

GusJaffrey, the sailor, was also held as a witness in the case. Roeky Blount Iron Works. A correspondent jbX Roeky Mount writes that last week the Rocky Mount Iron Works, which have been in successful operation for several years, reorganized with a capital stock of $15,000. The old manage ment S. K. Fountain and W. B. Traylor, men of enterprise and ener gy concluded to enlarge their oper ations, which they Tiave done byre- orfiranizing. The President, James W. Hines, Messrs. B. H. Bunn, S. E. We stray and W. K Fountain, com pose the Executive Committee. The cooperators represent a capital of about $1,000,000, so" that the institu tion may be said to be on a solid basis. The work of the company has a reputation second to none in. this or any other State. Ineendlarr Attempt. The fire last night at the old grist mill on South Water street near Dock, (formerly the property of Mr. Preston Cumming), is said to have been caused by an incendiary. For tunately the damage was trifling, the nromnt attendance of the Fire De partment in response to the alarm sent out from box 24, preventing any progress of the flames. The fire was started on the outside of the building next the river, " and had made but little headway when Lit was dis covered. mm.

The ladies who have woTked so in dustriously and faithfully for weeks past in the preparation of this enter tainment, have felt considerably en couraged by the very liberal patron age they are receiving each evening, and express themselves as being un der great obligations to almost all of the religious denominations of this city, whohave so kindly assisted them in labor, material, donations, contributions, patronage, etc., and to many in other places in our own State, as well as elsewhere, who have so kindly sent in their donations and contributions some of them unex pectedly and unsolicited and for all of which they return their heartfelt thanks. Among other contributions from our sister town of Fayetteville, and which are on sale, are a number of memorial book-marks, printed in gold letters, one on white and others upon black ribbon, and some of them reading as follows: "In memory of Rev. L. S. Burkhead, D, D. who died Deoember, 2d, 1887, at Fayetteville, N. C, during the session of the M.-E. Conference held in that place. Servant of God, well done; Rest from thy loved employ." and the other reading: "In memory of Capt. Wm. M. Par ker, who died. December 7th, 1887, at Fayetteville, N. C, at the close of the session of the N. C. Conference held in that place. 'He iriveth His beloved sleep.' " In memory of two true, trusted, tried, faithful and good men, who were were well known in this commu nity. The attendance last evening was very large and the competitive drill of the Wilmington Light Infantry re sulted in favor of Mr. Ed. More, and the prize, which was a handsome gold-headed cane, was presented by Col. Roger Moore. To-night's entertainment closes the "Festival of Months," and those who have not attended should do so, as they not only contribute to a good and worthy object, but witness what a gentleman of experience says is the handsomest thing of the kind ever in Wilmington, while there is nearly everything to tempt the appetite or articles to please the fancy. or Interest to tbe Snipping- Trade. The Collector of Customs at this port heCs received official notification by circular from the Commissioner of Navigation at Washington, D. C.,that vessels may be entered in the ports of the United States from any of the ports of the Empire of Germany with out the payment of tonnage dues, un less the vessel shall belong to a for eign country ia whose ports the fees or dues imposed on American vessels or the duties on their cargoes exceed those imposed on its own vessels or exceed those imposed on the vessels of Germany or their cargoes. This law went into effect February 28th, and the Commissioner directs that certified statements may be forwarded for a refund of the dues on tonnage paid on the entry from German ports of vessels exempted from the tax, and which were entered at any port of the United States on or since the 26th ultimo. The Collector is requested to notify the department of any ton nage tax or other equivalent tax or taxes which may be imposed hereaf ter on vessels of the United States in any port of the German Empire, and to exercise care to levy tonnage dues on all vessels from said ports of any foreign country which discriminates in its own ports against vessels of the United States or their cargoes in favor of its own vessels or of the ves sels of Germany. Further notification is given that vessels belonging to Great Britain, France, Germany, Denmark, Holland, Sweden, Norway, Belgium and Por tugal, arriving in the United States directly from the ports of the Ger man Empire may be admitted under this proclamation without the pay ment of the dues mentioned six cents per ton. Fire Alarm K,ast Evening A stick of llghtwood, on fire in the onoiTifl mnm of the steamer Enter prise, lying at her wharf near the foot of Princess street, created a utu excitement for a few minutes yester day evening about seven o'clock. The fire was extinguished with two or three buckets of water, and the boat sustained no damage. In the meantime, however, an alarm had been turned in from box 24, which brought the full strength of the Fire Department to Market street dock, when it was ascertained that the fire was "all out." Engines and, reels all made remarkably quick time in responding to- the alarm. The "Atlantic" reel came first, leading the Hook and Ladder truck by a length or so In a race down Market from Fourth street. These were quickly followed by ;the "Adrian" and "Cape Fear" in the order named. A close observer says that he is convinced that all were at the foot of ..Market street inside of a - minute and a half after the alarm was turned in.

The announcement of the death of Mrs. Missouri Dawson will be a great shock to her many friends in Wilmington. The sad intelligence was received here yesterday after noon, through a telegram from her lawyer in ' New York eity, who said that the remains would be sent home for interment.
