Id the Senate yesterday, a resolution
was adopted formally recognizing the
Republic of the United States of Brazil,
,ind a resolution was offered requesting
the President to invite the King of the
Hawaiian Islands to send delegates to
the Pan-American Congress, now in ses
sion in Washington; the session of the
House was almost wholly consumed
in the discussion of the proposed code of
rules. The young Duke of Orleans
has been sentenced by the Tribunal of
the Seine to two years' imprisonment,
tor violation of the law exiling from the
country all pretenders to the French
tii rone. A tire occurred early yes-
t r '.ay morning in the Catholic Orphan
Asylum, on Fitth Avenue. New York;
there were four hundred and fifteen or-
.n boys in the institution, all of
whom, through the excellent manage
ment of the Sisters, were safely gotten
out " the building; the damage was
about $10,000. Mr. Chalmers, of
Mississippi, made an argument yester
day before the House Elections Commit
tees in favor of a Federal election law
for his State; he wants protection for
the white Republicans of the South; the
.u;.,.ocs were able to speak fully for
ti:em-e!ves. The Manchester Guar-
.;?: reports the business situation as
unsatisfactory both to buyers and sellers.
A general strike is threatened
throughout the coal mines of Alabama,
involving thousands of miners, and caus
ing fifteen or twenty blast furnaces to
shut down. New York has a sensation
relative to the marriage of a stockbroker
to a woman of unenviable reputation;
the man has a whe and child down in
Savannah. A collision has occurred
on the Alabama & Great Southern R. R.
which resulted in the engineer being
killed and many persons injured.
Prot. Louis Hast, the most prominent

Mr. Parnell's health is said to be
breaking down under the constant
strain that has been upon him in his
great and protracted fight for Ire
land. In Denmark most of the girls are

The lunatics in Mississippi are not

It is said to be no longer a secret
that Samuel J. Randall is suffering
from cancer. His physicians tried
to conceal it from him as well as
from the public. They now say he
may live a few months or may die
within a few weeks.
When old fellows ninety-five years
old go to murdering their sons and
daughters-in-law, as that hot tem
pered old fellow did in Manitoba, it
is evidence that passion will climb
up into the garret, even when the
mercury goes down into the cellar,
and that this remark is not confined
to the young and frisky, either.
C. J. Sturgis, editor of the Republi
can Standard, at Uniontown, Pa., was
promised the postmastership, but an
other man got it who, he says, was
backed by one H. C. Frick, who runs
a dozen or so of stores and buys
goods from John Wanamaker, mer
chant. Sturgis says this twelve-store
man is weighty with Wanamaker.
n English paper says a syndicate
s Ixing formed in England to buy
i this Government the forest
lands of Alaska. They had better
wait until Tom Reed and his gang

up then than it is now, and they may
be able to drive a better bargain.

The Philadelphia Press, Republi
can, remarks that there were in 1880.
31,690 colored men, women and chil
dren in that city, and that the natu
ral increase and new comers from
the South will bring the figures now
up to 45,000. And yet of all these
not one is in a public office of any
kind, though they stand by the par
ty of "liberty and equality" to a
mau. How is this for the good Re
publican city of Brotherly Love ?
The Emperor William who has is
sued an order prohibiting the exhi
bition of portraits of himself, of any
of his family or of any of his ances
tors without his consent, has proba
bly seen some of the American illus
trated papers, with pictures of
living and dead people, and fearing
the introduction of enterprises of
this kind into his domain thus takes
time by the forelock to put up the
bars.
Chicago had better build her big

The Grand Pacific Hotel which was
built about fifteen years ago at a cost
of $800,000, and was one of the most
tony hotels in the world, was sold
the other day for forty thousand dol
lars, for the reason that the land rent
was so high that no one could afford
to pay the rent and run it. The
owner of the land got it by paying
$40,000.
The Western farmer is on the
highway to prosperity, sure enough.
It cost the farmers of Illinois $10,
000,000 more to raise their corn crop
last year than it is worth at present
prices, while the farmers of Kansas
and Nebraska find it cheaper to burn
it than to buy coal. Why shouldn't
the Western farmer throw'up his hat
and rend the welkin with his "hoo
rays" for protection."
The Republican denizen of Indi
ana who thinks that the Republicans
of the North ought to help the South
to settle the negro question evidently
does not comprehend the true in
wardness of the Republican party.
If that question was settled the Re
publican party would vanish from
the face of the earth, and it don't
want to vanish for the good of the
country.
The editor of the Henderson

Prof. Swing says that he very of
ten found that in his discourses he
would put on too much steam and
get ahead too rapidly. He cured
himself by writing in large letters at

this out as a hint to Senator Ingalls.
When the Count of Paris abdicated

Cape Fear River Steamers.
It was reported yesterday that the

that although this action had been ad
vised, it was likely that the Hurt would
continue in service until the first of
March next.
Retiring the Hurt will leave only
two steamboats on the Cape Fear be

but the machinery was little damaged.
Both building and engines were insured.
The house cost $2,000. The cause of
the fire is not known.

CATCHING SHAD.
The Law in Relation to Fishermen and
- Fishing on the Cape Fear and Black
Biver s.
A man engaged with others in run
ning a seine in the Cape Fear river,
called at Sheriff Manning's office yes
terday morning in search of information
as to the law .in relation to fishing. He
said that as he was going out with his
nets he had been warned that it was
against the law to catch fish on Wed
nesday, and although he did not be
lieve there was any such law in exis
tance, he had called to get assuranee of
the fact from the Sheriff himself. The
man was astonished when told that such
a law was on the statute books and that
its violation involved a penalty of $20
fine or imprisonment for thirty days.
The law was passed by the Legislature
of 1887, and is entitled "An act to pro
vide for the free passage of fish in the
waters of the Cape Fear, Northeandast
Black rivers." Its provisions are as
follows:
Section 1. That it shall be unlawful
for any person or "corporation to catch
with seines or nets any fish of any kind
in the waters of the Cape t ear river,
from its mouth to the Bladen county
line and in the waters of the Northeast
and Black rivers within the county of
Pender, between six o clock p. m. on
Tuesday and six o'clock p. m. on Wed
nesday of each week in each ana every
year.
bECTiON a. l hat it snau De uniawrui
for any person or corporation to obstruct
the free passage of fish in any of said
waters, oy tne use oi wire nets or wire
seines, or other contrivances construct
ed for the purpose of preventing the
free passage of fish in said waters.
Section 3. That any person violating
the provisions of this act shall be deem
ed guilty of a misdemeanor and upon
conviction thereof before any justice of
the peace, in the countv where the of
fence was committed, shall be fined not
exceeding twenty dollars, or imprisoned
not exceeding thirty days.
