A great many Republican states
men have taken the stump. If they
would confine themselves to taking
tne stump, the treasury of this coun-
Lry wouldn't be on the verge of
bankruptcy as it is. The Republi

between their takes and mistakes the
country is in a bad fix.

VOL. XLVII.-NO. 15.
Mr. Peters, Republican of Kansas.
although opposed to some features
of the new tariff bill, swallowed it as
a whole, and wishes it could be made
a "punishable offence for any mem
ber of Congress to introduce a bill
for a revision of the tariff during the
next ten years.!' He doubtless" ex
presses the sentiments of the pro
tected "manufacturers on this point,
who would be perfectly willing to
extend the period to twenty-five in
stead of ten years.
When the Republican candidate
for Governor of Tennesseee opened
his campaign in Nashville last week"
it was given out that the colored
brethren would not be allowed seats
on the floor of the house with white
folks but would be seated in the gal
leries. The colored sovereigns de
clined this unasked for elevation,
said they were not proud and were
perfectly willing to sit with the
wKite Republicans down "below, and
they "sot."
When that old Hoosier at Wash
ington, Ind:,addreed Mr. Harrison
as Ben, Mr. Harrison,great man as he
is, though Tom Reed, since the
Portland custom house swipe, sajs
he's small, didn't swell and get mad
but said he hoped the old fellows
would all call him Ben. If he con
tinues in this happy, familiar frame
of mind he may limber up enough to
go on a bender with some of 'em be
fore his junket winds up.
An exploring expedition which has
just returned from Alaska, measured
some of the mountains out there and
found that they were not as high as
they were supposed to be. Mount
Elias which was said to be ' 19,500
feet high is less than 15,000. Moun
tains are not the only things which
shrink when measured up. Some
people thought Harrison a big man,
but Tom Reed who has been measur
ing him says he is a "little thing."
Tom Reed actually speaks of the
great Republican President as "that
little thing at the other end of the
avenue." When Thomas gets wroth
he gets very wroth. Then his sash
becomes really useful as well as
decorative, for it keeps him from fly
ing apart. But what a touring rage
he must have been in when he could
thus minimise the illustrious grand
son of his grandfather.
Joe Cannon, of Illinois, has taken
the stump and is shooting off his
mouth in his district. If all the ac
counts from his stamping ground be
true, he'll feel like taking to the
woods before the campaign closes.
"We are 65,000,00X) of people with
energy, brains and enterprise, ready
to reach out in every direction," says
Boss Reed, and he might have added,
they who think like me are ready to
take every thing within reach.

REPUBLICAN CONVENTION.
H. M. Croom. of Pender, nominated for
Stat Senator.
The Republican Senatorial Conven
tion of New HanOver, and Pender
counties, was held yesterday at the
Court House in this city, to nominate
a candidate for -the Twelfth Senatorial
district. Gen. S. H. Manning was nom
inated for the position, without opposi
tion, but upon being apprised of the fact,
in a brief speech declined the honor, for
the reason that he thought Pender
county was entitled to the Senator. He
suggested the name of R. M. Croom, of
Pender county.
Gen. Manning's declination having
been accepted Mr. R. M. Croom was
unanimously nominated, "whereupon the
following resolution was passed:
We recognize in Gen. S. H. Manning
a true leader of the Republican party.
irie has been sheriff of New Hanover
county for the past sixteen years, and
m ail that long period he has been
faithful to his trusts, and has the confi
dence of all our leading men regardless
of party. He was among the first to
make his settlements with the State of
all moneys entrusted to him, and he
comes up to the standard, "an honest
man s the noblest work of God. We
pledge ourselves to support him for any
office he ever runs for.

All Watches Compasses.
A writer in the London Truth says:
A few days ago I was standing by an
American gentleman, when I expressed
a wish to know which point was north.
He at once pulled out his watch, looked
at it, and pointed to the north. I asked
him whether he had a compass attached
to hfs watch. "All watches," he replied,
'are compasses. Then he explained to
me how this was. Point the hour hand
to the sun and the south is exactly half
wav between the hour and the figure
XII on the watch, for instance, sup
pose that it is 4 o'clock. Point the
hand indicating 4 to the sun and II on
the watch is, exactly south. Suppose
that it is 8 o clock, point the hand indi
cating 8 to the sun, and the figure X on
the watch is due south. My American
friend was quite surprised that I did not
know this. Thinking that very possibly
I was ignorant of a thing that every one
else knew, and happening to meet Mr.
Stanley, I asked that eminent traveller
whether he was aware of this simple
mode of discovering the points of the
comoass. He said that he had
never heard of it. I presume", there
fore, that the world is in the same state
of ignorance. Amalfi is proud of having
been the home of the inventor ot the
compass, l do not know wnat town
boasts of my American friend as a citi
zen.
Sudden Death.
Mrs. Amanda Millis, wife of J. C.
Millis, Esq.. and mother of Mr. J. W.
Millis, of this city.and-Rev.D. J.MIllis, of
Missouri, died suddenly at half-past 11
o'clock last night at the home of the
family in this city. Although unwell
for several days past, she had been up
and attending to household duties, and
it was only after she had retired for the
night that she w?s seized with the fatal
sickness dying before a physician could
be called to attend her. It is supposed
that heart disease was the cause of her
death.

The Bice Crop.1
Rice will be high this year. Not only
has there been a partial failure of the
crop in this country, but in the rice-producing
sections of India and Japan the
crop has also been a failure, and for this
reason the prices should be good, which
will compensate in some degree for the
losses sustained. The failure of the crop
in Japan has amounted to almost a rice
famine and the grain is so scarce that
the government, fearing the effect of
speculative operations, has forbidden
the exportation of it. Heretofore, de
spite the duty imposed, th Japan rice
has come in close competition with the
American product, and has frequently
affected the market seriously, From
this we will not suffer this year, how
ever, and rice planters will no doubt re
joice accordingly.
