The exciting topic in South Caro lina is the Child's prohibition bill passed by the House, which will also pass the Senate, and it is said will be vetoed by the Governor. T From the earnestness with which it isdiscussed it is evidently not looked upon as any child's play. - Florida is probably the best) tim bered State in the Union. Cut of about 38.000.000 acres, only some 3,000,000 are included in farms, the rest, nineteen-twentieths, exclusive of the area covered by lakes and rivers, being covered with heavy forests. Many valued exchanges are de voting editonal space to the fact that Senator Peffer has selected a seat on the Republican side of the Senate, This is neither startling nor important. To suit his exacting - constituency, however, we presume the bewhiskered Kansan should have selected a seat on a camp-stool in the middle aisle. W hether there are to be one or two Farmers' Alliances in this coun try will depend upon the Third Par ty Conference to be held in St. Louis on the 23d of February. The anti- Third Party Alliance men have post poned their Convention, which was called for the 16th inst. at Memphis, to await the action of the confer ence. A Moscow merchant, who some time ago informed the authorities of a convent in that city that he, would give them half if he won the first prize in the State Loan lottery, has placed with them 100.000 roubles (50,000) for the use of the convent. He won the prize and kept his word. It Moscow pretty hard with the lot tery people, though. . A Kansas City prophet predicts the end of the world in the after noon of Christmas day. What a con siderate prophet he was to postpone this Interesting event long enough to give Santa Claus a chance to put in an appearance. If the collapse came the day before it would be a terrible disappointment to the little ones. For want of space the STAR-could not publish the whole of the Presi dent's message if it would, and would not if it could, as it is too long and would not be read, prob ably, by one-twentieth of our sub scribers.

Few people fully comprehend the vast possibilities of the oyster industry of East North Carolina. The culture of the succulent bivalve is yet in its infan cy, but with intelligent care and close attention, can be made to become a ver itable bonanza. As a source of revenue, oyster culture is looming well up to the front. The Richmond correspondent of the Balti more Sun, gives some refreshing infor mation to those owning oyster farms in the Wilmington section. He says : The importance of the oyster industry is now being pressed to the front as never before. Mr. Marshall McCor- mick, of Clarke county, one of the lead ing Democrats in the State, said he con sidered it the biggest question of the day in Virginia finances. He favors the relegation of the whole subject to an im partial commission to report upon, the commission to be chosen by the Legis lature. 'I believe," said Mr. McCormick, "that if properly managed this State's oyster interest could be made to pay off her whole debt. Indeed, 1 am told of capitalists who have hinted at their wil lingness to assume it upon condition of beine erven the right to control Vir ginia's oyster beds." The State owns about a million and a halt acres ot oyster lands which, if leased, could be made to yield a large revenue. It is not improb able that this question will be pressed at this session as it never was betore. Mr. McCoimickand other prominent men say it should be considered witnout party or State sectional'oias, strictly as a business question and one ot revenue. Tne Value of Seaports. The Baltimore Sun says: In spite of a fairly effective blockade the posses sion of the seaports Charleston and Wilmington particularly enabled the South to get, and receive up to the very end of the struggle, the supplies without which she could not have main tained the fight. With no blockading fleet off these ports the South could not have been overpowered m years longer if at all. Lee remarked "When fort Fisher falls Richmond must be evacuated." A Southern writer declares theSouthern Confederacy "breathed through the sea port." Notwithstanding the blockade it received munitions of war through the blockade runners. But when Fort Fisher and Wilmington fell the breathing ceased and the Southern Conferacy was choked to death. If the South had had a navy from the beginning it would not have been con quered. If the North had had a navy large enough to seize the Southern ports in 1861 the Confederacy would have been smothered at the start. Both were deficient in ships, and the side that was most deficient lost. The result will be the same when the United States goes to war again the side that has the best navy will win. Torpedoes will not decide the contest as against ships. Justice Bunting's Court. The following cases were disposed of in Justice Bunting's court yesterday: Jerre Paschael, charged with assault and battery on James Lord, both col ored, was adjudged guilty and judgment suspended. He was committed for costs. Ed. Moore on a peace warrant sworn out bv Tames Lord, both colored. De- fendant was discharged, the prosecutor charced with cost and - committed for non-payment. Judgment was suspended over Har riet Crawford, colored, who was ad judged guilty of disorderly conduct. Alice McDonald, colored, charged with larceny, was discharged upon the WILMINGTON, LOCAL DOTS. Items of Interest Gathered Here and There and Briefly Noted. The weather is delightfully typi cal of Wilmington's enjoyable winters. The owner of a trotting flyer asks the Star to propose a race some time during the holidays, and says he will be in it. The Ice and Snow Carnival ot the Ladies' Concordia Society was a big financial success last night. It will- be repeated this evening. The Star proposes a vote on the prettiest girl at the carnival to-night, also on the ugliest man and the most insipid dude a nickel a vote. Mr. John F. Murrill, brother of ex-Sheriff E. Murrill and H. D. Murrill, of Onslow county, editor of the Hickory Press and Carolinian, is dead. Loppy, the wife-murderer, was electrocuted Monday in Sing Sing prison, it seems to be a successlul way of lopping off a man's existence. ''The Vehicle," kommonly kalled the body oj J. Dray, is still holding forth at the Hammocks, and is always pre pared to "do up" the hungry and thirsty. Our Jewish citizens are liberal charity-givers; now show your apprecia tion by attending the carnival of the Ladies Concordia Society this evening. It was to the reporters of the Star and Messenger that the W. W. Ex ecutive Committee returned thanks for their regular attendance at the meetings and their faithful work in reporting the proceedings. Blum's Farmer's and Planter's Almanac for 1892, now in it's sixty-fourth year, has been received at the Star office. It contains much valuable statis tical and other information. L. & V. Blum, publishers, Salem. N. C. Mr. C. L. Horner, who so suc cessfully managed the Atlas House, at Ocean View, last summer, has rented it for next season. During the winter months Commodore Puckett is in com mand, and can refresh the "inner man" with both solids and liquids. In the City Court, yesterday, H. Davis and Wm. Wilson, both col ored, were adjudged guilty of disorderly conduct and fined $10 each, and costs. John Beatty, white, for vagrancy, was committed to the county jail for thirty days. Four instruments ticked inces santly in the Western Union Telegraph office from 2 to 6 o'clock a. m. yesterday, while four operators, Messrs. Bragg, Pennington, Portis aij4 Sholar, copied the message of President Harrison. The document contained about 15,000 words, and the knights of the stylus were will ing to go home when McKee said "good night." Tne Hail road Commission. The Railroad Commission, Maj. Jas. W. Wilson, Chairman, and Messrs. Thos. W. Mdson and E. C. Beddingfield, met in the north sitting room at The Orton yesterday, informally, and heard several citizens on matters relating to the pur poses for which the Commission was formed. When a matter has been called to their attention the largest latitude is allowed all interested parties in produc ing all the facts and their decision is ar rived at after great deliberation. The Commission will go to Jaekson- viile to-day oyer the Wilmington, Ons low and East Carolina Railroad, and may return this afternoon, and certainly to-morrow. 1 he party nave Deen invi ted by a prominent citizen to take an excursion down the river to Southport and outside to get a glimpse of the 'deep blue sea" and enjoy other glories incident thereto, on Friday. It is doubt ful. however, whether Mr. Mason will consent to participate, as he is booked for an educational speech about twenty miles from Weldon, Saturday. Mr. Beddingfield, the Wake county mem ber, is. authority for the statement that the gentlemen of the Commission are pleased with Wilmington and its hospi table citizens. BY RIVER AND RAIL.

The lee and Snow Carnival Given by the Ladies' Concordia Society, a Gilded Glow of Glory. City Hall last night, where the, La dies' Concordia Society held their Ice and Snow Carnival was a blaze of glory. The dazzling splendor of the artistic decorations was eclipsed by the glowing beauty of the many matrons and maids who, fairylike, flitted hither and thither, suggesting a veritable glimpse into an arctic paradise. The evergreens were so harmoniously and deftly blend ed, intertwined and festooned about the hall and in and over the lace walls of the various booths wherein presided the pretty priestesses, and the llusion was so realistic, that the re porter forgot he had lately left terra firma. He felt as if he was translated from a sublunary sphere and dropped among a bevy of busy houri. Upon entering the portal one's eye was at one enraptured with the shim mering show of icy glitter bedecked with accumulated flakes of fleecy snow, all brilliantly illuminated from gas burn ers above and myriads of colored Chi nese lanterns on all sides. The kindly countenance and chery voice of treas urer I. L. Greenwald, presiding over the cash box at the door, brought the re porter back to earth. To the right was placed the icy throne, covered with snow cushions for the occupancy of the Carnival queen. On the same side of the hall was the booth where fancy articles were dis pensed lor a consideration. This was a charming boudoir environed in filmy lace curtains, tinted with ribbons and seamed with evergreen wreaths, dotted in the snow. Mr. Mendelsohn, Mrs. Kasprowicz, Mrs. Stein and Mrs. Macks were in charge and were assisted by Misses Daisy Bear, Lillie Taylor, Bettie Green berg. Blanche Blumenthal, of Pennsyl vania, (-ame Rosenthal and btella Shrier. The rostrum was magnificently ar ranged into a lace, parlor for salads. &c, gaily decorated with evergreens, flags and lanterns. This was presided over by Mrs. E. Levy, Mrs. Nathan Schloss and Mrs. A. Nathan. The floral fruit and candy booth was the attractive centre piece, a dream of elegance, abounding in lace, evergreens and colored lanterns, and was under the management of Mrs. David, Mrs. Rhein- stein, Mrs, Solomon and Mrs. Honnet. The captivating clerks were Misses Rosa Macks, Mamie Bear, Matilda Daunen- baum, Carrie Levy and Louise Katz. The cake, cream and confection de partment, also a poem of sweet repose, was controlled by Mrs. N. Jacobi, assist ed by Miss Annie Stolter, Miss Louise Knight,' Mrs. West, Mrs.'Moore, Mrs. Springer, Mrs. Hodges, Mrs. Henry Gerkin, Misses Kate Stolter, Louise Keed, Eliza Weil, Rosenstock of Peters burg, Va., Alice Hawkins and Bowden. The popular meat table was fancifully adorned and managed by Mrs. A. Shrier, aided by Mrs. Greenewald, Mrs. Rosenthal, Mrs. Frank, Mrs. Weil, and Misses Linda Jacobs, Maggie Satchwell and Hannah Shrier. The oyster saloon was a spot around which a hungry party ever lingered and was in charge of Mrs. Greenberg, with the following clever aids : Mrs. Barren- tine, Misses Bonitz, Rosa Sternberger and Bertha Bear. The guardians of the fish pond were Masters Charlie Mendelsohn and Mar ion Macks, and right well did the dear little fellows catch the nickels, while the anglers captured the fish. Mr. Julius Sternberger got there in many gut-edge volumes as tne grana tycoon of lofty rafflers. Mrs. J. I. .Macks, who possesses the divine afflatus of artistic taste and touch, is -due great credit for the gen eral hall decorations, and also to the committee of which she was the head. Without disparagement, or invidious distinction, the ladies in charge and the visitors were voted a very bright galaxy of beauties. Rev. Drs. Mendelsohn, Pritchard and Peschau honored the occasion with their genial presence. The decorated depending umbrella, covered with snow and garnished with colored lanterns, was a unique feature. The Germania Band, in their splendid full dress uniform, rendered some rav ishing selections during the evening. The Carnival will continue this even ing and close with a grand german. Drowned While in an Epileptic Fit. Wm. Cox, the colored man who was drowned in Smith's creek, Tuesday, is supposed to have been seized with an epileptic fit, as he was subject to such attacks. Cox and another colored man were out fishing in the creek in the same boat. His companion left the boat and went up the creek, leaving Cox alone, and when he returned, Cox was discovered dead with his legs in the boat and his head in the water, which was about a foot deep. Coroner Walton examined the body yesterday and, perceiving no marks of violence, thought it unnecessary to hold an inquest. Star. THE GREAT SOUTHERN FIBRE. Gray Moss to Take the Place of Hair for all Commercial Uses. Along the seacoast of this State and extending some distance in the interior gray moss in exhaustless quantities can be found, and if it could be utilized economically without great cost or time, would add another industry to east Carolina. The followine from the Charleston News and Courier shows its possibilities : "Dr. C. F. Panknin and Mr. John Von Oven have for some time been experi menting with Southern fibres with the object of securing a soft, springy and dry fibre that can take the place of hair in mattresses, saddles, chairs, horse col lars, etc. The Southern gray moss has been the chief subject ot their experi ments, though bayonet spears, marsh grass and banana peels have also been also been used. 1 heir experiments have at last reached a point where there is no possible doubt as to their success in fact success has already been attained. 1 he experimenters have secured pat ents in all the machinery required in the process of converting green fibrous veg etation into dry marketable fibre. They have had a complete set made and set up at Burmester's Mill, in Queen street. Yesterday several gentlemen were shown the. practical operation of the process. lhe green.moss, just as it comes from the trees in the swamp, was run through a patent rolling machine. This roller is operated by steam power and is so ar ranged that it crushes the moss and re moves the damp vegetable matter with out in anyway injuring the hairy fibre of the plant. It has, only one roller, which operates on a spring base. In this way the moss is not torn as it is carried through a set of rollers; but is subjected to a pressure for a quarter of a re vol u - tion ot the roller on a spring supported base. When the moss has had suffi cient pressure it is thrown on a wire sieve, which allows the refuse vegeta ble matter to fall through its meshes to the floor below. The moss is, after a good shaking over the wire netting of the sieve, run through the roller for a second time or as many times as may be necessary. When the moss is finally manipulated at the roller it is taken to a duster, an immense machine, which brushes out all the foreign matter left by the roller. Then, after a good thrashing in the dus ter, the moss is dried. It is then in a marketable shape, but not in its highest condition. There are two higher grades, whicn are attained by more brushing, drying and dusting. These two higher grades are dried black so that it is al most impossible to distinguish them trom real hair. The finest grade has every mark of the highest grade of mat tress hair. The experiments with bayonet spears, marsh grass and banana peel have been fully as successful as those with gray moss. The tough bayonet spears have been converted into a soft.fibre, and the marsh grass into easy, springy stuffing for chairs, mattresses, etc., while a good, strong rope is made of the skin of the banana. There is no longer room for doubt as to the success of this process with any fibrous vegetable that does not contain ligneous substance. - The First National Bank. There are no new developments in the affairs of the First National Bank. Mr. Alden, the Bank Examiner, it is learned, will not complete his examina tion until some time next week, after which he is required to make his report. After his report reaches the Department at Washington, the receiver will be ap pointed, and until he arrives the Ex aminer must remain in charge of the bank. Of course, the longer depositors re main without their money the more despondent they become, and this is verv natural, but there seems to be no reason for doubting that they will be saved harmless in the end. A letter has been received at the Star office from Hon. A. H. Garland, ex-At- tornev General, enclosing one from Comptroller Lacy, in which it is stated that it is the rule not to appoint as re ceiver of a suspended National bank any citizen of the town in which such bank is located. K. of H. At a recular meeting of Carolina Lodge, No. 434. K. of H, held last Mon day nveht. the following officers were elected to serve during the year 1892 ' G7 w S. P. D R. L. Cantwell; D. H. L.

McGowan; Medical Examiner Dr. F. W. Potter; Trustees Owen Fennell. Tr., J. L, Dudley, W. M. Han- kins. A Charity to be Commended. Mr. Lynn, the clever manager of the wonderful Galatea bhow, ot his own motion offered to Col. E. D. Hall the pro ceeds of yesterday's receipts for any charitable purpose Col. Hall might sug gest. It was agreed that the Confed erate Soldiers' Home in Raleigh should be the recipient of Mr. Lynn's generous offer. Accordingly the money taken in yesterday was turned over to Col. Hall for above object. The exhibition is marvellous in itself. and, apart from the commendable chan ty of the manager, which should be rewarded, is truly worth thejen cents admission and much more. Weather Forecasts. The following are the forecasts for to-day : For North Caralina, fair weather, warmer in eastern portion and station ary temperature m western portion, south winds. WHOLE NO. 7,778 COTTON FACTS AND FIGURES. Middling uplands 8 l-16c in New York yesterday. Receipts of cotton here yesterday 886 bales, against 667 bales same day last year. Net receipts at all the ports yester day 35,023 bales; same day last year, 50,300 bales. The impression seems to be very general that there will be a perpendicu lar drop in receipts next month. Noth ing else can cause any material advance in price. The cotton men who predicted that middling cotton would be sold in the New York market for seven cents are not so numerous as they were a few weeks ago, Augusta Chronicle: Cotton is now selling cheaper than it will sell in the next year. .A thing is always cheap whenever it sells at or about what it costs to make it. Cotton cannot be made for much less than what it is now selling for. The crop estimate is exag gerated. The necessities of the planter and the facilities for handling the.crop and. rushing it from the plantation to the market have impressed the cotton world with the belief that the present crop is nearly as large as that of last year. This we beueve to be an error. But the North and Europe will not be lieve it until the receipts begin to fall off. After the holidays, better prices will obtain possibly before. While we are not advising speculation, we believe that the man who buys cotton at pres ent prices and holds it will make money. All the cotton in this section will find its way to the market by January. One thing is certain, it is not in the fields in Georgia and South Carolina. A. Correction. From the Columbia State : Mr. T. T. Barron, the attorney of the Atlantic Coast Line, was surprised to see certain statements m an interview recently published, and yesterday when asked about it said; "I see in the News and Courier of the 5th an interview and statement in ref erence to tne projected Norfolk, Wil mington and Charleston railroad which 1 think very misleading, It is therein stated that this line from Norfolk to Charleston will be one hundred miles shorter than any other route. This is not true. The Atlantic Coast Line will after January have as short a practical line as can be built, via the celebrated Wilson and Florence short cut, and the parties advocating the Norfolk, Wil mington and Charleston scheme are either misleading the public or are mis led themselves through inexcusable ig norance. If this route is a desirable and profitable one, there will be plenty of private capital to build, equip and main tain the same. THE MAILS.
