Official dispatches confirm the report of the arrival of Stanley and Emin Pasha on the Aru- waimi river. Mr. John Bright is recovering his health. Lawrence Oliphant, the well known English writer, died of cancer of the lnngs Sunday afternoon. The steamer Haytien Republic has been sur rendered to the United States men-of-war by the Haytien government; Gen. Ligitiine has been unanimously elected President of the Republic. A magazine at Mount Pleasant, Ohio, containing a large quantity of powder and dynamite, exploded Sun day; a boy was blown to pieces and two boys and seventeen men were badly injured; nearly every house within a mile was blown to pieces. A passenger steamer, running bet ween Memphis and Arkansas City, was burned Sunday morning; there were two hundred people aboard, and about twenty-five lives were lost; all of the cabin passengers were saved. A railway accident, near Atlanta, Sunday morning, resulted in t'ie kill ing of the mail agent and the injury of the engineer, fireman and conduc tor. Government business will be suspended to-day in Washington. Later reports from the steamboat disaster on the Mississippi state that the loss of life may reach sixty. The Pope yesterday, in addressing the Sacred College, was unusually violent and bitter; the speech referred exclusively to the Vatican and Italy; that a systematic- war was beiug waged against the Pspacy, and that even the person of the Pope was ex posed to the threats of a mob New York markets: Money easy at 35 per cent.; cotton quiet, middling uplands 9 cents; middling Orleans 10 cents; southern; wheat, No. 2 red $1 02$ at elevator: corn weak and c lower, No. 2, 46c at ele vator; spirits turpentine dull; rosin dull.

Good morning, Santa Claus, we with you a Merry Christmas, and hope you did your work well last night. Mr.Gallinger, Representative elect, after visiting Harrison, says he is making a Cabinet by the map. Ge ography will fix things. If Harrison makes a strong Cabinet it will disap point us. An appreciative but unknown friend has sent us sweet potatoes, persimmon beer and 'possom all the way from Cheraw, S. C. We feel sure he is a sound Democrat with a back-bone of principles. Thanks ! The Henderson Gold Leaf is seven years old. It is a healthy, ro bust, lively boy, and promises to live long and do much gcod good. It is a clean, fair, gentlemanly, earnest, independent paper. We like it and wish it God-speed. The membership of the Lutheran Church in this country is over a million 1,032,102. The present Chapl-in of theTJ. S. Senate is Rev. Dr. Butler, a Lutheran. He is pas tor of the Lutheran Church in Wash ington known as the "Luther Memo rial Church." Senator Gibson has introduced a resolution to investigate the elec tions in Indiana, New York, Rhode Island and Louisiana, the last his own State. Pass the resolution and make the scrutiny. It is time that corroption aod bulldozing had ended everywhere, and especially in the North where they so much abound. We never thought much of Ella Wheeler Wilcox. Now we think less. She is out in defence of erratic Amelie Bives, and calls her the "female Shakespeare." It is the most foolish defence that was ever written. She prophesies that the Virginian will obtain "a fame great er, grander, more deserved and more enduring than ever yet allotted to mortal woman." rjr VOL. XLIII. NO. 79. Dr. Cornelius Riddiok, a preacher of a very high order, is a North Carolinian. He could not get work in the North Carolina Conference, although he was beyond all fair qnes- j tion the most eloquent preacher in the State. He went West some thirteen or fourteen vears aco. In three Conferences he has taken easily the first rank. The San Francisco Advocate said years ago that be was at the head in that Conference. A minister from Colorado tells ua that when he was at Denver he ranked number one. He is now in the Ala bama Conference and has no superior as we saw it mentioned recently. The Alabama Christian Advocate says: "Dr. Monk and Dr. Riddick enjoy the distinction of receiving the largest salaries of any two pastors in tne North Alabama Conference Tne rormer eels s s.u ana tne latter $3,000, and they richly dt serve and earn alt they get. Some people do not know their a a greatest men and some Conferences do not know their greatest preachers. The Lynchburg Advance advo cates strongly the nomination of Mr. S. Woodson Venable, of Petersburg, Va.. for Governor. His son is the Representative-elect from the Pe tersburg District. Mr. S. W. Ven able is a nephew of the late Hon. A. W. Venable, Of Granville county, this State. Tbe Baltimore Sun says: "Mr. Venable is one of the leading busi ness men of tbe Cockade City, and has been active in fighting tbe battles of the democ racy in the 'black belt section. Though not a practiced public speafcer, as a politi cal campaigner Mr. Venable is a 'hustler,' and has tbe reputation of being able to shake bands and converse with more voteis in a given time than any man In the 8tatc." We believe he is the largest to bacco manufacturer in tbe South and perhaps in the Union. Richmond Pearson is in high feather with his new allies. He kicked himself out of the Demo cratic party, with which he had half way trained semi occasionally. The World of Sunday contains the fol lowing wonderfully important dis patch: "Raleigh N. C, December 22. A large delegation of North Carolina Republicans leave in a few days for Indianapolis to urge President-elect Harrison to appoint Rich mood Pearson, of this State, Postmaster General." Wanamaker is worth fifty times as much money as this Richmond is and gave a hundred times more boodle. So what chance has he? The Mecklenburg Times is the name of a new, large and handsome weekly published at Charlotte. It is indorsed by the Farmers' Alliance of Mecklenburg county, and will aim to be a suitable paper for all for those in cities as well as in the country.

The New York World has a pic ture 'representing the young woman who has got through her Christmas shopping. She is fast asleep with a cart load of bundles piled up around her. Underneath is written: "I've got the earache in one ear, an eye acbe in one eye! A toeache in bath toes; my mouth is parched and white and dry 1 My forehead bears the furrows of a moun tain load of care I My hands looks as if they'd been cooked both overdone and rare!" The Duke of Wellington has de cided views on the subject of edu cation. He had far more insight than most Northern educators and than some Southern. He said : "Take care what you are about, for, unities you base all this (education) on re ligioo, you are only making so many clever Look around and behold the wis dom of Wellington, the "Iron Duke."

Taylor, of Ashe- ville, has taken charge of the Yates studio. Mr. Taylor is originally from Tennessee and is a brother of Alf and Bob Taylor who have figured so con spicuously in Tennessee politics. The Asheville Citizen, in reference to his removal here, says: "Mr. Nat. W. Taylor, long a well known photo- j graph er here, a man of eminent skill in his profession, for some time a res- j ident of Elk Park, is in the city on bis way to Wilmington, in which city he proposes to establish himself. We commend him to the kindly con sideration of the people of that city, though we feel eertain that own skill and abilities will soon render him in dependent of endorsement." Study of Political Economy. Arrangements have been made by the Y. M. C. A. to organize a class for the study of Political Economy. The class will pursue a course occupying twenty lessons and will meet once a week . Tbe charge for the course will be two dollars to members of tbe Association and three dollars and a half to new members. Every young man in America who is or expects to become a voter should be a 'student of political economy. Familiarity with its principles, wbeth er gained from observation or from theory, is essential to the success and safety of our institutions, and for this reason the study of the science is be coming popularized. The services of Rev. P. fl. Hoge have been secured as instructor, and his well known ability is a sufficient guarantee for a practical and inter esting presentation of the subject. Applications should be made to the general secretary at the rooms. Deatl. of nr. Webb. Mr. Harry Webb, a native of Eng land, but for many years a resident of Wilmington, died yesterday after noon from a stroke of paralysis.in his 59th year. Mr. Webb had many warm friends in this community who sym pathize deeply with his family in their bereavement. He was a mem ber of the Episcopal Church and his funeral will take place from St Paul's. to-morrow at 10 o'olock a. m. Post CJbrlaimaa Pleasures.

ORN 1NCI N, CM TUESDAY, DECEMBER 25, 1888. W1LMIA G TON'S NEED. Industrial Enterprises and now to Secure Tbem. A question now agitating the pub lic mind is what shall the city of Wil mington do towards inducing capi talists from abroad to invest in our city and vicinity, and encouraging our own people to place their spare money in manufactories which will give employment to the largest num ber of laborers and return them ade quate compensation for the use of their money, and in this way build up our city and make it the formost sea port on the Atlantic coast? That it will, some day, be the chief South At lantic port, is deeply impressed upon the minds of all observant people; and since the recent purchase here of property for terminal facilities by the Cape Fear & Yadkin Valley Rail road Company, this feeling has seized upon our citizens in a most expressive manner. There is one great obstacle to capi talists coming at present, and this barrier is high taxation; and while the taxable rate of Wilmington is lower than that of Norfolk, Charleston or Savannah, it is still too high to invite speedy investment. A remedy is herein suggested by one of our most enterprising citizens: As long as the Constitution of North Carolina re mains unchanged, all taxation must be levied uniformly and ad valorem on all property, and no property can be exempt by even legislative en actment, except the property of benevolent and charitable institu tutions and this law and rule ap plies to all cities and towns. There fore, the only constitutional and legal way to encourage manufactur ers to come among us is by a promis ed exemption from city taxation and the only legal and constitutional means of accomplishing this object is to select some locality on the sub urbs of the city eligible for factory sites and withdraw therefrom the ju risdiction and control of the city by legislative enactment. The most suitable locality suggest ed, is all that portion of the present city lying on the west bank of the river; withdraw that portion of the city from the present territorial limit, and confine its jurisdiction to that portion of the east bank of the river, and we have the finest sites for fac tories that can be secured in this vi cinity. But it will be said that tbe city will lose a large part of the rev enue; but this is not true, an actual examination of the assessor's books show that the entire assessable value of the property on the west side of the Cape Fear is $36,000, This assessment, with the present rate, only yields about $600 accurately speaking, $631. 29 a year. Its advantages will be 1st. The finest river front, with wharves, already constructed, ac cessible for all rafts, boats, and even the largest steamers. 2d. Its close proximity to the busi ness portion of the town; making it convenient for the transaction of business. 3d. A perpetual exemption from heavy city taxes. 4th. On account of its surround ings, laborers on that side of the river would be compelled to live in tbe city limits and would here spend their earnings withi the merchants and others. Now, if this plan meets with the approval of our people and. suggest one single reason why it should not let a public meeting be held and the Legislature be requested by it to pass an amendment to our city charter securing this end. The merchants and property own ersyea, the city at large will reap benefits of which the most sanguine mind cannot at present conceive. The Legislature meets in January, and let there be no delay in pressing through this important measure. A 8ad Affliction. Rev. R C. Beaman, the new pastor of the Fifth Street Methodist church of this city, and his wife, have the sympathies of the community in the sad bereavement which has befallen them in the death of their oldest child, a little daughter about seven years of age, which was laid in its last resting place on Sunday after noon, the last rites being performed by Revs. W. S. Creasy and T. Page Ricaud. Mr. Beaman and family have been residents of our city but a week, but although comparatively strangers here, his family has not suffered for sympathy or assistance. At this merry season, when so many hearts are joy ous and happy, it is sad to suffer such an affile ion, but in this case it is doubly sad, as in a comparatively short time four out of five of his children have died. vaatnsr lntfietuoa. The following are the indications for to-day: For Virginia and North Carolina, fair weather, warmer, southerly winds. For South Carolina, Georgia, Eastern Florida and Western-. Florida, fair weather, wjtrmer, easterly winds. iNT A R OPERA HOUSE. Cora Van Tassell in "Cnerry Ripe." It being Christmas Eve there was not the attendance at the Opera House last night to see Miss Cora Van Tassel in "Cherry Ripe" that should have greeted this charming little actress. The Company has been strength ened since its last visit to Wilming ton, and gave a full performance. Miss Van Tassel is too well known to the Wilmington public to require an endorsement at our hands. She is ever the painstaking hard-working actress. We will, however, say that those remaining away last night missed a treat. This afternoon "Cherry Ripe" will be presented at the matinee. To night. "Hidden Hand." Colored men Flghtloc. There was a big sensation among the colored population yesterday afternoon, growing out of a report which proved to be false that John Guyer, engineer at Mr. Kidder's saw mill, had killed one of the employes at the mill known as Sim Brown. Both men are colored, and Gayer is a man of some prominence among his people, at one time being a member of. the Board of Alder men of this city. The two men engaged in a fight on Front street near Castle, and Guyer knocked Brown in the head with a fence pail ing; but so far from killing him, tbe blow did not, apparently, cause any severe injury, for Brown was at po lice headquarters shortly afterwards with Guyer, and both men were rec ognized for their appearance before the Mayor to-morrow morning Guyer being required to give bond in the sum of $200. Brown claims that he was assaulted without provocation, while Guyer alleges that he was provoked into the difficulty that since the election in November last he and his family have been sub" jected to insult and persecution by Brown and other colored people that has grown to be intolerable, simply because he scratched his party's ticket and voted for the Democratic candidate for Congressman Hon. Alfred Rowland. J ostlce ITJIlll-' Court. Before Justice Millis yesterday Wm. Oldham, colored, was charged with assaulting Calvin Bell. He paid the cost and was discharged. Alex. Moore, colored, charged with larceny in that he stole wood be longing to W. D. Robinson colored, and failed to account for the same was acquitted and the prosecutor paid the costs. Henry Robinson, colored, charged with the wilful abandonment of his wife, was sent tojaili failing to give bond for his appearance at the Critn inal Court in January. mayor's Court Mayor Fowler disposed of a number of cases yesterday; all the prisoners beiDg arraigned under tbe general charge of disorderly conduct. Jno. Spicer and Charles Burnett, colored, were each sentenced to pay a fine of tweuty dollars or be imprisoned for thirty days. Louisa Currie, colored, was fined five dollars; Louis Craig, ten dollars; E. G. Bradley, ten dol lars. Isaac Bishop, colored, ten dol lars, Louisa Moore, colored, was discharged at the cost of the com plainant.

Prices are nominally unchanged, but where parcels have to be promptly placed, concessions are easily se cured.
