iM inaisnjppi ia an event, xie was one oi
the most remarkable men of the time.
When he "first entered the Senate he
was always fn dbftte and, spot with
an extreme rapidity, and an unerring
aet uracy that was marvelous, lie was
til ways a . Union man, even in the .Con
federate Senate. His acquirements in
law were hardly inferior to Caleb Cush
inir, and in versatility in letters he was
rivalled by no man in the south.
Evt ry true Republican in Ue country
wiil experience gratification at the
honors recently conferred by the Presi
dent upon the jllon. Horace Maynard
of Teiinessee, arid Lt. Gen. Longstreet
of Alabama. If it is a tardy, it is a
just recognition of twe of the most emi
nent and ablest of southern Republi
cans. Maynard has 'always been an
unflinching Republican since the ex
istence of that party, and Longstreet,
from having been only second to Joe
Johnston in the Confederate army, is
entitled to even higher honors than the
Ministry to Turkey on account . of the
noble and patriotic stand which he has
taken hi public affairs of laU years.
On the whole It is a matter of regret
that a Senator like General Gordon has
retired.':' The appointment of ex-Goy.

ALL THE BOOM SUBSIDING; V
Just mow there is a decided lull in
Republican National politics. The
friend v of the three leading candidates
have practically concluded their work.
Thtre seems bat little doubt, now, that
the Illinois state convention, now in
session will direct the delegates chosen
by it, if indeed they are not instructed,
to vote all the time for General Grant
at Chicago. After tc-morrow all the
scheming aud all the figuring will be
concentrated on the delegates them
selves, or uuo thing I am convinced.
Whoever is nomnatcl tij the EepnKii-
cans will be elected. Unt4 the Chicago
Convention designates the man, all
speculation is ' useless. What we do?
knowis ihis: The Republican party
will enter the campaign more united,
and f.r more in earnest, and with m're
reasoii.ible chances of success than at
any time since 1863.

THE LAST GREAT SPORTESTO FRAUD.
During the whole of the week we
have lived in a sporting atmosphere
There have been horse races every day,
and the War and Navy departments
kindly closed their offices at 3 p. m. so
the clerks conld attend them. rTo-day
WILMINGTON. NORTH
that all of those employed ia them,
who wwh to, can attend the last of the
sporU of the week at the National Fair
Grounds. The event of the week was'
the Hanlan Courtney race. J The former
was the favoriteamong sporting men,
Decaose he has not yet beeii been beat
en. and because of his creat endurance-
Courtney has been under a 'cloud since
he ave away the race at Lachine, Can
ada, tome two or three rears go This
ace was merely , an advertisinff dodee.
More than all this, that great hulk of
Drawn, uourtney, has no heart in hb
huge breast. ;He is as full of words,
and as wantiug in that pluck which
carries; men through such contests as he
i big. His little opponent has strength.
e"1 kiH, an 1 what is of far more con-
sequence, that fkithi in himself which
" worth half of any. battle.
Wow lfom all that I have said do
thinlc tbat thete was a boat race on
fcUO IOW"Dc io-aay. in ine morning-
ine big fraud had a headache, and pro
cnrea an hours delay. He had lost
heart if he ever nad any. At last the
mea were placed, and started!
-n.ere is the olficial account of ihe
advertising fraud :
'Hanlan appeared first at 5:45 o'clock
and Courtney came out five luinulis
later. Start was made at nine minutes
past six, Hanlan on the Virginia aide.
Hanlan got the lead at once. j
At the quarter-mile flag Hanlan was
one and a half lengthy in the lead. He
held it all the way down and was lead
ing at the turn.
Hanlan had ithe lead all the way,
gaining all tht? lime, being on tie last
quarter six orL eight lengths ahead.
Courtney was r6wing very slowly, seem
ing to take his time. hen nearly op
posite his headquarters, the Potomac
boat house, he stopped and scratched
his head, ihen pulled into his head
quarters, leaving Hanlan. to finish the
race alone, which he did at his ease.''
That was all there ..w.''- "
men did ' cu uiaiic wuuhuu i w
tice twice. " lhat was wuat leu thous
and deluded men spent time and money
te come to Washington to ce, and six
ty thousand confiding . people of this
city sat hours in the hot sua to witness.
Riley pulled out ahead of the sc-ealied
champions, and easily kept his place
all the way around. It is the worst
case of professional sports hippodroni-
ing before a swindled publio that has
yet occurred. It ought to be the very
last.
Our chief, Col. W. P. Canaday, has
been in town since riunday last. For
three days he was very ill. At one
time his friends were much alarmed.
He is now on his feet again,' which by
the way, means more trouble,, some
where, for some of the th rd term men.
Yours, II. C. F.

Mr. Editor : Please permit me to
interrogate you through the columns of
your valuable paper relative to our
civil and political rights before the law
as citizens of North Carolina and of
these United States of America.
We, as citizens, taxpayers and voters
of Duplin county, are excluded from
the jury-box from some cause, I know
not what. This state of things has
gone on lengenouodi, we thiuk, and
would be glad to know why we are tnus
treated. It has got to be a very rare
thing to see colored men serving as
jurymen here. Why should our rights
as citizens be ignored in this manner?
Th , excu foT this;-infringement,
so far as I nave been enabled to ascer
tain, is that the -"niggers are too igno
rant to serve as jurymea." Admitting
ignorance to be the disease', 1 am quite
sure that depriving us of any citizen
ship is not the proper remedy to apply.
An nnnre of prevention is wortn a
poand of cure Let tbem be where
