Special Star Correspondence, Raleigh, N. C, October 31. To-day Forepaugh and Sells Bros.' circus is in town and for the time be ing business, politics and everything else seems to be forgotten. The largest crowd ever in Raleigh on "circus day" is here and the circus is the largest ever here. More than 20,000 witnessed the parade to-day. It is interesting to note what 'the Fusitoisils are now claiming. They couteud that they will have thirty-five of fif:y members iu the Senate and a safe majority in the House The last Legislature th-y had forty-three in the Senate; huce. ihey now admit a loss of eiht Senators. Besides this, their e.-ti mated.: thirty five includes two Seuators from Durham, Ala mance and Orange district, one from Guilford and one from Meck lenburg; none of which they can get to save th-ir lives. The best in formed Democrats iu the State sry that tht-re is absolutely no doubt now of a good old tim majority in both branches of the Legislnture. The Fusiouists are brag-ging that they will get stn- negro vots in Mecklenburg and other counties which they say went Democratic last year, but they forget that as the negroes solidify the white people realize more and more the n-cessity of doing likewise. "-A fusion State official told your cor respondent last night that with no local ticket in the field in New Han over Dockery was beaten. Major W. A Guthrie is now speak - ing in the West, but will come to Harnett. Sampson and other eastern counties in a few days. He is making a splendid canvass and doing good work for Democracy. A Wake county fusion candidate admits that their ticket will lose 80 Populist votes i'i two country pre cincts. With two or three townships of that kind his ticket is defeated at his own figures. Some Republicans in the Wesfthink they are playing a smart trick in get ting negroes to wear White Govern ment Union buttons. Solicitor Edward Pou comes out strongly asking the Democrats to sup port Atwater for Congress. Gov. Russell left for Wilmington this morning.

PESCHAU To Democratic Voters of the Fifth Ward. Reasons for Retiring Prom the Legislative Ticket. To Messrs. Marshall, Dowling, Biggs, Rhodes and others: Gentlemen Permit me this op portunity to address you, and my otter Democratic friends of this county, in a friendly spirit, for I am your friend and every man who knows me well knows that when I make this statement I speak nothing but the truth. That you or many of you feel friendly towards me there can be no question. Your conduct in the past, your fidelity to me in what you believe to be a present crisis has proved be yond a doubt that you are men whose friendship any man might well be proud to claim, and I am proud to claim it. Yes, when the weight of years shall have left its impress on me as it has on so many of you already, I hope, old and infirm though I then may be that the opportunity and privi lege shall still be mine to extend to, and receive from your sons, your son's sons and yourself if you still be here, the same feeling of friendship I now extend to you. I shall always feel for you a deep admiration. I believe there beats in the breast of the most humble of your number a heart as true as steel itself. I know you possess a courage as un questioned, a sense of duty as keen, an appreciation of fairness as pro nounced as ever entered tbe make up nf any man. And my friends, to that heart, to that courage, to that sense of duty, I want to address myself. For the past few days many of you have been laboring under high and contin ued excitement. I have no doubt you sincerely believe you have in some way been run over rough-shod. Many of you believe I have been treated un fairly. Now let me tell you that mon strous as the staternent'mayfirst seem to you, none of your beliefs are in fact well founded. There has been no disposition on the part of any one, so far as my knowledge goes, to trample in any way on one of your sacred rights. Circumstances rather than individuals have regulated and shaped events in this community. Our condition has been well nigh un endurable. For months past we have been engaged in the bitterest struggle on record to rid this section of negro domination. We have more than once been on the brink itself of a race conflict. Should the same conditions exist on the 8th day of November that confronted us but a few days ago, the probabilities are that a struggle bloody in its nature and fearful in its results would engulf this town. Strenuous efforts were made in consequence to prevent such a calamity, with but lit tle hope, however, until . recently, of any success. The Republican party seemed determined, and a race conflict seemed imminent. Such, my friends, was the condition of affairs that con fronted us Saturday morning. On Saturday afternoon I was waited upon by a committee of business men who asked me to . attend a' meeting of citizens at the Y. M. C. A. I did so, and there I was informed that .the Republican party had decided to put no county or legis lative ticket in the field provided Mr. Kerr and I be withdrawn. In the in terest Of. peace the meeting then asked me to resign. No attempt was made to coerce me, as many of you have un derstood. The meeting merely stated that in the face of circumstances they thought I should resign, and I prom ised to take their suggestion in consid eration. Mr. Kerr, I understood, had already resigned. Did I believe by staying on tbe ticket I could benefit my party in any way I would have taid there, and no influence, however, formidable, other than that w,nlch placed me there could have catised me to withdraw. Ordinarily, I-would op pose any cocessionandrhad the in tention of the R?njerttlican party been tosuostilute aSepublican in my place I should under no circumstances have tendered my resignation, as I subse quently did, to your Executive Com mittee. The only condition the Republican party imposed, however, was that Mr. Kerr and I should be taken down. If that were done,they said, no oppo sition would be made eitner islativeojbunty ticket. place 6i3BHWfrr and understood, the Democratic at liberty to substitute any two Dem ocrats. Wibatever, my mends, may have been the reasons for Republican opposition to me and to Mr. Kerr will not here discuss. You may de cide that for yourselves, but the fact remains they did oppose me, and un less I withdrew, a full Republican ticket, thev said, would be placed in the field, and a contest be made at the polls, and the result any man who knows the condition of this commu nity to day could easily foretell. They may have been sincere in what they said,; they may not have been, (as you suggest), but I am too mucn or man to jeopardize either my party or my friends by one single seinsn act that misrht iniure it or them. The Question that confronted me was should I withdraw and allow another to succeed me whose devotion to good government and white supremacy were unquestioned, or should 1 still hold on - and by so doing not only ieonardize the whole Democratic ticket but in addition thereto throw this community into an awful race struggle, possibly unparalleled in its horrors. If the time should ever come, mv friends, to defend my home or yours, you know you will find me in the foresrround. I am as determined as are you that this community shall be delivered, cost what it may, irom the terrible cloud that now hangs over it. But if it can be done without the sacrifice of a single life, then, in the name of heaven, why not do it ? By my withdrawing from the ticket 1 believe it can be done. Don't look on it in the light of a sacrifice on my part, but rather be lieve I refuse to be the means of bring ing on any household, humble though it may be, unnecessary wretchedness and possible ruin. I regret more than I can say that the present disturbed condition does exist in our ranks, and I shall do every thing in my power to bridge the breach. The candidates nominated to-day al though they are not your choice shouxd receive your undivided sup port, for you must not lose sight of the fact that this is a white man's struggle and that the eyes of the town are on your section to-day, and the eyes of the world are on the town. Don't lose heart and do your utmost to see that others do not get disheart ened. I trust I shall soon find an op portunity to address you at length. In the meantime continue your good work for white supremacy. With best wishes. Yours, very trul, George XL Peschatj. CASTOR i A For Infants and Children.

Qninsy, or Tonsllitis, and How I Should Be Treated. Quinsy, or tonsilitis, is an acute inflani' mation of one or both tonsils. The inflam mation is commonly very "active," caus ing great pain and ending in the forma tion of matter. - Children, and especially young adults, ore most subject to the disease, for it is in them that the tonsils are most fully de veloped and most prone to take on inflam mation. The glands gradually become smaller In middle life and have more or less completely disappeared In those who have reached old age. The first Indication of trouble is usually a chill oa chilly" sensation, such as many people have come to recognize as a sign of having caught cold. This Is followed by a little fever, with dryness and "stiffness" in the throat, and a little pain on swal lowing. The pain, which rapidly Increases, is continuous, but is greatly aggravated by the chewing and swallowing of food. On looking into the thrqat the swollen and reddened tonsil is readily Been. (When both tonsils are affected, thoy may often be Been pressing against each other and seem ingly blocking up the throat completely. Sometimes the trouble may apparently at least be cu Short by early treatment, but usually the inflammation goes on to the formation and discharge of an abscess. A person with tonsilitis should live on milk and broths. Indeed, there is sc temptation to take solid food, not only because of the pain in swallowing, but be cause the appetite is lost. Gargling with a strong solution of borax or bicarbonate of soda in hot water, to which a little glycerin has been added, is very grateful. Cold compresses applied to the throat at the beginning of an attack occasionally appear to cut it short, but after the formation of pus bs clearly be come inevitable warm Applications or poultices should be used. As soon as mat ter has formed it should be let out, and the ensuing relief will amply compensate for the momentary .pain of the littlo cper ation. Youth's Companion. I STRANGE AUTOMATISM. The Singula r Case of a Soldier With a Wonnded Brain. Sergeant F was wounded at Ba- zeilles by a ball which fractured his skull. After his recovery periodical disturbances began to be represented in his existence, the abnormal periods lasting from 15 to SO hours, while the intervals between them those of natural life varied from 15 to 80 days. In the abnormal phases F was essentially an automaton. He felt nothing, smelled . nothing and ato any thing, however nauseous its tasto. His sight was apparently affected, for he had to feel for objects against which he stum bled. This man in his automatlGSEuoh be-' gan to write a letter Ja Jatlgeneral, and while intfctTacl oT writing Dr. Mesnet in terposed a serpen between F 's eyes and anus. He went on with his writing for a time; then the words became illegi ble and he finally ceased. 'When the screen was withdrawn, ho resumed the composi tion of his letter. Having had placed be fore him ten sheets of paper, one on the top of the other, he began to write. Then the topmost sheet was suddenly with drawn, but the letter was continued on the second sheet just as if the first sheet had remained. Five times was this trick repeated, the fifth sheet showing only the signature of F at the bottom ; but when ho had signed this fifth sheet he took it up in his hand and read on its blank surface the letter he had written. He ah?o made cor rections in the words he supposed he saw, and these corrections occupied tbe plaoea the words which required ing sheets. -..ThiB case Is very imstructTV for It "teaches us that as a result of injury we may find cases of automatism which par allel the natural variety of that condition we call somnambulism. Andrew Wilson, M. D. , in Harper's Magazine. To Strengthen the Eyea. Unless one has unusually strong eyes one must not read when one is extremely weary. - Exhaustion and fatigue affect all the nerves of the body, and the optic nerve is so sensitive that it should receive par ticular, consideration. Nor should one ever be guilty of the carelessness of reading or writing facing a window. This, too, is a cruel strain on the sight. Washing the eyes morning and night in water as hot as it can .be borne is a won derful tonic for those useful servants which are so easily injured. When we consider how wecglect their welfare by using them by fauing daylight and insuf ficient artilicial light, by forcing them to do work when they arc weary and by de nying them the rest for which they long, we have cause to wonder not that they BometimCT become mutinous and refuse to fulfill our demands, but that they are ever faithful in our service. They will, as a rule, be as good to us as we are to them. Harper's Bazar. To Examine the Eye. If anything gets into your eye, don't rub it. Good advice, but a little diffi cult to follow, for oue instinctively rubs the eye under these circumstancea Nevertheless, don't do so. Get some one to turn the upper eyelid gently over a thin penholder, so that he may see the ball of the eye thoroughly. If lime gets into the eye and if you see the substance at once, wash out the eye with vinegar to two parts of water. If, however, you don't see the particle immediately, sim ply put sweet oil or olive oil into the eye and send for the doctor. New York Ledger. Iead and Dyed.

QUEER PHASE BERG OF LIFE AT UNIVERSITY. HEIDEL- Some of the Karnes Which Adorn the Prison Segiater and the "Crimes" Vot Which Their Owners Were Incarcerated. The Bales of the Flace. In England the student's body is com mitted to prison onlyby the civil au thority, fn Oxford, it isfcrne, the vice chancellor deals with undergraduate naughtiness, principally in the form of debt and insubordination, for which he may impose a momentary penalty, but he does not deprive the defaulter of lib erty. There is, ir was, a legend that a certain apartment under the old Claren don building was really the university "quod," but for its authenticity it is impossible to vouch. Cambridge has its spinning house for female offenders not lady students, but ladies who might prove a delusion and a snare to the mere male undergrade There, if we except the irksome penalty of "gating" (confinement to college or lodgings after a stated hour), our aca demic efforts at incarceration may be said to end. In Germany, however, the academio dungeon is a very stern fact. The Hei delberg "career" is famous. Every read er of Mark Twain will recall his enter taining description of the place and how he contrived to visit it, even unwit tingly enlisting as his guide a "Herr Professor." His pretext was to see a young friend who had "got" 24 hours and had conveniently arranged the day to suit Mark for the German student convict goes to prison on the first suit- able day after conviction and sentence. If Thursday is not convenient, he tells the officer sent to hale him to jail that he will come on Friday or Saturday or Sunday, as the case may be. The officer never doubts his word, and it is never broken. The prison is up three flights of stairs, and is approached by a "zugang" as richly decorated with the art work of convicts as the cell itself. The apart ment is not roomy, bnt bigger than an ordinary prison cell. It has an iron grated window, a small stove, two wooden chairs, two old oak tables and a narrow wooden bedstead. The furniture is profusely ornament ed with carving, the work of languish ing captives, who have placed on record their names, armorial bearings, their crimes and the dates of their imprison ment, together with quaint warnings and denunciations. Walls and ceilings are covered with portraits and legends executed in colored chalk and in soot, the prison candle forming a handy pen cil. Some of the inscriptions are pa thetic. One runs, "E. Glinicke, four days for being too eager a spectator of a row. " If four days were meted out to a mere spectator, what, one wonders, had been the sentence of the participa tors? It must have been a moving spec tacle. Another record (also quoted by Mr. Clemens) has the savor of a great name to it Of course it iprtiie son that is meant, not the father. The legend is, "F. Graf Bismarck, 27-29. H. '74" This Mark Twain interprets as a record of two days' durance vile for Count Bis marck in 1874. Had 1874 been leap year one might have been inclined to interpret the numeral ' ' II" as February. But the "29" makes this difficult. So perhaps the humorist is right. A third specimen is too tragic for comment. It simply says, "R. Disrgandfc for love-four days." Ungenerous successors, to that sad chamber have dealt harshly with their forerunners' reputations by ingenious substitution of heinous crimes, so that certain prison ers go down to posterity as having been punished for theft and murder. The prisoner must supply his own bedding and is subject to various charges. On entering he pays about ten pence, and' on leaving a Bimiln.r mm, Every day in prison costs sixpence ; -fire and light sixpence extra. The jailer supplies coffee for a trifle. Meals may. be ordered from outside. Every prison er leaves his carte de visite, which is fixed with a multitude of others on the door of the cell. This queer album is glazed to protect the photographs. Academio criminal procedure in Hei delberg is curious. If the city police ap prehend a student, the captive shows his matriculation card. He is then ask ed for his address and set free, but will hear-aiorej3f theBSatter, for the civil authority reports him to the-university. Oxford regulation, by the way, is in certain cases almost identical. In Heidelberg the university court try and pass sentence, the civil power taking no further concern with the offense. The trial is very of ten conducted in the pris oner's absence, and he, poor wight, may have forgotten all about his peccadillo until the university constable appears to conduct him to prison. But thither, seeing he may choose his day, he always repairs cheerfully. London Sketch. THE DUNKERS' LOVE FEAST. Feet Washing, the Great Supper and the Kias of Peace. "The most important and the most beautiful custom of the Dunkers is their love feast, which they celebrate in com memoration of the Lord's supper, after the manner -of the primitive Chris tians, " writes Clifford Howard in de scribing the customs of the Dunkers of Ephrata, Lancaster county, Pa., in The Ladies' Home Journal. "The celebration is held at nightfall and begins with the rite of feet wash ing, in imitation of the act performed HSy the Master at the last supper, when he washed the feet f his disciples. Small tubs of lukewarm water are brought in, and those about to receive the ordinance remove their shoes and stockinga The brothers then in turn, each one girding himself with a towel, wash and dry one another's feet, the sisters at the same time doing likewise among themselves in their part of the room. "After this follows the supper, the feast of love, which is spread on long tables and consists of lamb soup and bread and other simple viands. It is eaten in devout solemnity and rever ence. At the close of the meal the broth ers turn to one another and extend the right hand of fellowship and the kiss of peace, each one shaking hands with his neighbor and kissing him, while the sisters at their tables perform the same beautiful rite among themselves. The communion is then administered.

A Star -writer -was asking the phy. sician a great many questions and getting answers to them, while the Dhysioian wasn't getting a cent of pay for the part he was performing, "By the way," inquired The Star man, "do you think that a somnazn bulist oan see?" "Do you mean when he is awake or when he is somnambulizing, so to speak?'' smiled the physician. "While he is somnambulizing, of course. I'm not talking about blind men." "Well, I won't answer your ques tion directly, but I'll tell you a story which m&y go as an answer. About ten years ago I had a roommate, a young fellow who was a student in the medical college, and a bright young fellow he was too. He was fond of shooting, and to keep up his practice he had, a fine airgun, and he converted the hall on. the third floor, whioh We occupied,; into a shooting gallery. I used to take a hand my self every time I had a chance, and sometim'es for an hour at a time he would be banging away at the tar. get he had fixed at the far end of the hall. . - One mornina 1 came in trom a patient's about 3 o'clock and found the whole upper story dark. I lit the gas in the front room, whioh we ased as a sitting room, and was about to go out and light the gas in the hall, when tho young fellow came walking In from our sleeping room, attired in his nightclothes, and with his eyes wide open. I spoke to him, thinking something was the matter with him, but he did not an swer, and in a minute I saw that he was walking in his sleep. "This was rsot altogether unusual with him, but I had never caught him in the act before and concluded I would watch him. Ho came di rectly across the room, going around a chair and a table that stood in his path, and oponing a drawer where he kept the airun ho took it out, and then he loaded it, getting tbo small bullets wo used out of a box on the mantelpiece. This box ho stuck into what would have been his coat pocket, if ho had had a coat on, but as he hadn't the box fell to the floor, which he took no note of. "Then ho went into the dark hall, carefully avoiding all furniture in his way, and going as straight to the door as if he had been awake. I followed him cautiously into the hall, and whon he had reaohed the usual point from which wo did our firing he stopped, took careful aim and fired. The slight snap and shock of tho gun seemed . to have quite a different effect than either my voice or the bright light in the room, for on the instant he dropped the gun, made a half step forward and fell into my arms, just about as he would have fallen out of bed if he had waked suddenly on its edge. "He was wide awake, in a minute and began laughing and asking me what had happened. I told him, and. we at once lit the gas in tho hall and examined the target. The target had been repainted after we had had our last practice, so that we could see plainly where his bullet had hit, and I assure you be bad made almost a center shot. Now,-" concluded the physioian, "in the lighted room he missed all the furniture in his way, and in the dark hall he had hit the target. Do you think he could see, The answer wasn't quite satisfac tory as an answer, but it made a problem to wrestle with, and the physician kindly consented to let his questioner figure it out to suit, himself.
