A resolution was presented in the Senate yesterday from a colored mass meeting in Birmingham, Ala., against the passage of the federal election bill; the wool paragraphs of the tariff bill were considered, and Mr. Daniel made a speech in favor of an amendment to strike out the paragraphs and place wool on the free list; a vote being taken the motion to strike out was lost by a strict party vote; the paragraph relating to woollen and worsted yarns was then taken up itntl debated, but no action was reached: in the House the bill for the adjustment of accounts of laborers aris ing under the eight-hour law, was, after amendment, passed; the bill amending the alien contract law was pass ed without opposition; several other bills were also passed. The engineers on the Southern Pa cific road threaten to strike and stop every train between San Francisco and New Orleans, unless a fireman, who was appointed engineer on a passenger train is removed; this has brought about trou ble between the brotherhoods, and com mittees have been sent to -San Francis co to confer wkh the western members of the order; if it should be in favor of the firemen, they defy the engineers to stop the trams. The emperors of Russia, Germany and Austria will meet September 4th, during the manoeuvres in Siblesia, and the opinion continues 1 hopeful of a definite solution of the Bal kan troubles before the end of the year. Heavy rains continue in SwitzSr- land and many bridges have been car ried away: a landslip has occurred in St. Gothard pass. F. L. Bond, a well known citizen of Tarboro. in this State, wandered ftom his home Thursday night, and after a long search his body has been found in Tar river; his mind was thought to be unsettled. An other call has been issued for the re demption of $30,000,000 additional four and a half percent, bonds. In Cin cinnati yesterday a lineman caught a live electric wire and was instantly kill ed. --Gen. Jose Maria Barundia. claimed to be an enemy to the govern ment, was shot and killed on board of a steamerat San Jose.while resisting arrest New York markets: Money easy at 2 per cent.; cotton quiet; middling uplands 11 cents; middling Orleans 11 3-16c; southern flour quiet and easy; wheat dull; No. 2 red fl 041 05 at elevator; corn lower and easier; No. 2, 54i-454 cents at elevator; rosin steady and quiet; spirits turpentine quiet and easy. If high tariff cheapens things, ar dent beverages may be expected to to take a tumble shortly Within the past decade the pro duction of pig iron in the South has increased from 350,436 to 1,780,909 tons. Isn't Dixie getting there on the iron schedule? In favoring an increase of duties on imported liquors, perhaps Sena tor Plumb believed that aristocratic Republicans should be compelled to drink American liquor. The crop reports from Illinois are vrry discouraging. But still it must be consoling to Illinois farmers to know that they have a protective tariff on farm products. The Democrats of the Tenth Ohio district nominated a man who ought to scoop the deck. First his name is Smith, then he is a tariff re former and an Alliance man. Tariff builder McKinley, of Ohio, the great wool protector, has been re-nominated for Congress. He will now proceed to try to pull the wool over the people of his district. From the present progress of the Republican statesmen on the line of reciprocity, it will not be very long before they will be tumbling over on the free trade side of the fence. Peace reigned in the House wing of the Capitol Friday. The Repub lican brethren did not make any faces at each other nor call each oth er brutes, blackguards, nor anything of that kind. The Republican Senators . sat square down on the proposition to put salt on the free list Friday. They should not do this. They will need plenty of salt when the remains are stirred up next fall. Walt Whitman don't seem to have a very large opinion of President Harrison. He is quoted as saying that Mr. Harrison has "inaugurated the day of small things." Mr. Whit man is mistaken. The Republican Party inaugurated the day of small tnings when it inaugurated Mr. Har VOL. XLVI.-NO. 138. . Clinton Wilson, a young man, of Guilford county, has invented and patented an oscillating steam engine which is attracting a good deal of at tention, and for the patent on which he is said to have received some very; big offers.' He is an unassum ing fellow, without mechauical train ing, but a great inventive and me chanical genius. Senator Hoar should not be so much troubled at Senator Plumb's resolution to stop the sale of exhil arating beverages in the Senate wing of the Capitol. Senator Hoar does not dissipate in anything strong er than cod fish balls, and that rarely more than once a week. A new law in Kentucky makes it a punishable offence to point an "un loaded" shooting iron at a friend or any one else. This law does not ap ply to those Republican counties where they only point loaded instru ments, one of their favorite diver sions, The Washington Star is curious to know whether the Force bill will be electrocuted or simply hung up. It will probably only be sat upon, or possibly talked to death, slain with a jawbone, so to speak, not the scrip tural jawbone, however. As an incubator of trusts New York seems to be a success. There are thirty-one of them there, with a combined capital of $24,797,000 and a surplus of $26,589,151. They had better not let this Congress get a whack at that surplus. Head-chopper Clarkson is going to be put in charge of the "practical" part of the Republican Congres sional campaign. If he prove as ex pert at this as in lopping off heads there will be some hefty work done. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. Yates School books. H. L. Fennell Removal. Star Office Babbit metal. Martin T.

The vacancy in the Custom House created by the death of the lamented Pennypacker, is now the centre of at traction among the Republican office seekers. There are divers and sundry patriots who would like to "sit at the receipt of custom." and there will be no difficulty in finding a self-abnegating fellow who will accept. Among those "mentioned" for the po sition are W. H. Chadbourn, W. P. Canaday, S. H. Manning, E. R. Brink, G. Z. French, Stacey VanAmringe and John E. Taylor, the present Deputy Col lector. There is also a "dark horse," and he bears the formidable name of "Leo-ion." ' What may be the result it is not easy fo foresee.

French, the postmaster, has written a letter to the President of the Chamber of (Commerce, suggesting that the Chamber have a standing committee appointed to be called the "Postoffice Committee" and that this committee confer with the postmaster from time to time upon the subject of increased mail facilities "from points tributary to Wil mington. This idea is a good one, and it is to be hoped that some action will be taken in regard to the matter. There is every indication "thai the coming fall season will be a very busy one and in creased mail facilities will be of great benefit to our merchants. 'mmmmm N. Cy SUNDAY, AUGUST .'51, 1890. NARROW ESCAPE FROM DROWNING. Heroic Rescue of Two Ladiea at Wrig.taT, ville by Young Iffeh from Wilmington. Two ladies had a very harrow escape from drowning while bathing in the surf on Wrightsville beach yesterday after noon, and only the courage-and heroisiri" displayed by Mr. Thos. M. Webb and several otheryoung men who went t6 his assistance, saved them from a watery grave. ' The ladies were Mrs. J. J. Hayes, whose husband keeps the Atlas House, near the pavilion at Ocean View, alid her sister, Miss Irene Jackson. Both are good swimmers, but they were caught in the undertow and carried out beyond the outer shoal and into deep water before their cries for help were heard. No one elsejsjs in the sijrf, but Mr. Thomas M; Webb of this city, who had just come out and was in the bath house changing his clothes, heard their cries and ran to their assistance. He picked up a life-preserver on the beach, and first reaching Miss Iackso"n, put it on her and swam with her to the shore; and then, seeing that no one had gone to the assistance of Mrs. Hayes, plunged again into the sea and swam out to her. Mrs. Hayes had become completely exhausted, had lost consciousness and sank beneath the waves iust as Mr. Webb reached her, only the skirt of her bathing dress be ing visible. Catching the skirt, Mr. Webb succeeded in getting Mrs. Hayes head above the water, but was himself so exhausted with the exertion that he was forced to relin quish his hold upon her. Mr. E. E. Turlington, Manager of the Ocean View Hotel, who had followed Mr. Webb, having first thrown off his coat and shoes on the beach, fortunately reached them just as Mrs. Hayes was again sinking beneath the waves. He caught her and was swimming with her to shoal water when he was met by Mr. C. J. Terrell, who also had plunged into the water after partially divesting him self of his clothing, and with his assist ance Mrs. Hayes was brought safely to shore, : Mrs. Hayes was unconscious for some time after she was rescued from the waves, and Miss Jackson was prostrated, but both ladies revived under the care ful and prompt attention they received. Mr. Webb, Mr. Turlington and Mr. Ter rell were all very much exhausted by their exertions. Moonlight Excursion.

' RANGE OF THE THERMOMETER. The following is the range of the ther mometer yesterday at the Signal Office in this city, as compared with the same date last year: 1890 12 o'clock noon 80 2 p. m 84 4 p. m 83 1889 83 81 81 WEATHER FOR SEPTEMBER.; j Prof. Hicks Forecast for the Monjih-A Cold "Winter Predicted. J Rev. Ira D. Hicks, the St. Louis me teorologist, sends to the Philadelphia VJPrcss the following weather forecast for September: Cool nights, with probable touches of frost to the northward, will prevail in most parts at the opening of the month. From the 3d to the 7th storm conditions will develop and run their course from west to east. By the evening of the 5th or 6th these storm movements will have passed the centre regions of the Missis sippi vailey,and a cool wave will follow. A dash of cool northwest wind and weather will supplement each disturbed period in September. It will grow warm and threatening, with reactionary storms on and next to September 10th and 11th. From these reactionary days forward until we pass beyond the center of the earth's equinox, about the 22d, general storms and gales may be looked for. From the 14th to 17th we count danger days.' Seafaring folks who fail to exer cise a prudent watchfulness may pay a heavy penalty. From about the 19th very warm days may be expected in . the west, growing warmer and traveling eastward, with very active storms on sea. lake and land from the 20th to 23d. Note this period be prepared for the. sudden and per haps severe developments it may bring, and do not be caught altogether un awares should a cold wave with frost and some early freezing follow in the days immediately behind, the storm area. Earthquake phenomena at and about this time, also, need be no cause for sur prise or alarm. From the 26th to 30th the elements will undergo the last storm movements of the month. We name the 27th, 28th and 29th as probable danger days. The month bids fair to end in cool nights, with cold and frost to the northward, sufficient to justify proper watchfulness and preparation against damage to im mature vegetation. In answer to numberless inquiries from all parts, we state here that we be lieve the early autumn will bring very cool weather, and that the coming win ter will be much more severe than last. Such conclusion is only a part of deduc tions drawn and printed six years ago, call for the wet seasons and the mild winters through which we have passed, and for the change to dry, warm sum mers and colder winters for at least three years, dating from the solstice in June, 1890.
