N business of interest was transacted
in open session of the Senate yesterday;
m executive session the resolution rela
nve 10 compelling newspaper men to
divulge their sources of information as
to business done in executive session
was discussed; there is much diversity
of opinion relative to the matter, and it
is thought that the resolution will be
defeated by a small majority; it is also
said that the discussion will probably
lead, before a great while, to the aban
donment of executive sessions; the
House was principally occupied in the
consideration of public building bills,
and a number of them were passed;
over a million dollars were appropriated
for a new post-omce in Washington
city, the Speaker counting a quorum on
the passage of the bill. The con

The Winston Daily which has just
entered its third year of publication
under the present proprietor and ed
tor, shows evidence of prosperity up
on which we congratulate it. With
in these two years the Daily has
grown from a little four column to a
seven column paper,. an evidence of
what pluck and perseverence can do
on a live, progressive town. The suc
cess of the paper is creditable not
only to the proprietor, but to the
community in which it is published.
The Government of St. Domingo
has struck on a bright idea. It J
claims to have the only and original
bones of the great C. Columbus, and
offers to ship them to Chicago for
exhibition at the World's Fair, for
$50,000 in cash and 20 per cent, of
the receipts of the side show. As
the gentleman has been dead some
time the bone-preserving properties
of St. Domingo soil must be pretty
good to have kept them so long.
Boston capitalists have bought
33,000 acres of land in Lexington
county, S. C, which contains a great
body of kaolin and will erect large
works for making white table ware.
There are some splendid kaolin de
posits in North Carolina, where the
pottery maker would find an inex
haustible supply, good railroad fa
cilities and all the advantages which
any section can offer for engaging
in the business.
Since Chicago has raked in the
site for the World's Fair the Inter-Ocean
has come to the conclu
sion that there should be peace and
no longer any North, South, East or
West. If the Inter-Ocean and other
organs which have been run on its
high pressure plan, will pull down
and pack away the bloody shirt we
will have peace enough in this coun
try for three times the population
we now have.
The German Government has
made a concession in favor of the
American hog, which will now be al
lowed to land at Kiel. 'This has no
reference to the two-legged Ameri
can hog, who is quite conspicuous in
Europe during the tourist reason,
and has free entry at all the German
ports.
Claus Spreckles, the great "sugar
king," is on a visit to Charleston,
where he resided from 1848 to 1854,
engaged in the grocery business,
afterwards becoming a brewer, and
later, in 1864, going into the sugdr
business, in which he amassed his
great fortune. He is a German.
The Supreme Court of Mississip
pi has sustained the decision of the
lower court, by which prize fighter
Kilrain was sentenced to two months
in jail and a fine of $200. This will
give him a chance to diet and recu
perate. Jake was about played out.
Boss Quay has gone down to
Florida to try to get some sleep. He
will put in the hours between naps
fixing up hair-lifting stories for Bill
Chandler and Ingalls to embellish
their speeches with when they want
to take a whack at the South.
Crank Blair would make a daisy ed

McCarthy 'a Mishaps.
Fun, pure and simple, will be the pal
atable dish served at the Opera House
on Monday evening next, when the
famed Ferguson and Mack Company
will illustrate the hilarious Celtic farce
"McCarthy's Mishaps."
It is a succession of amusing incidents
aided and abetted by the introduction
of numerous pleasing specialties and
several bright and pretty musical selec
tions.
The company is said to be a large and
efficient one, and numbers many popu
lar nlavers. First is found funny Bar
ney Ferguson, a comedian well-known
from his many performances of Celtic
character, and then comes his able
second, Mr. John Marr.
The public is promised a most enjoy
able evening and a glance at such names
as have been suggested will guarantee

Trying to Oust Sergeant-at-Arms Canady.
A correspondent of the Raleigh
Chronicle says:
A caucus of Republican Senators will
meet to-night, March 4th, to consider
naming a successor to Col. W. P. Cana
dy, Sergeant-at-Arms of the Senate.
The trouble arises out of some personal
spite Mahone has against Canady. I
am told that Mahone actually had the
audacity to try to incite some of the
rabid Republican Senators against Col.
Canady because of his Confederate re
cord! This is a case of the pot calling
the kettle black. If this is all they can
bring against Col. Canady he will remain
where he is. So far as my observation
goes Col. Canady has made a most ef
ficient officer. He has always been
courteous and obliging, especially to
people from his own State. He has per
formed his duties faithfully and he is pe
culiarly qualified for the position. If any
Republican is to have it, let it be Col.
Canady. I understand our Senators wi?l
stand by him.
Assault with a Deadly "Weapon.
Richard Thomas, the colored man ar

couple were coming to the city from
Meares' Bluff and were on the causeway
on the west side of Northeast river. At
the conclusion of the hearing Thomas

$200 for his appearance at the Criminal

with a deadly weapon, and failing to
