Blaine is trying to mako out that there is" no free trade in his reciprocity scheme. He is ignorant, it seems, of the meaning of his own movement. This leads the Louisville Courier-Journal to say; . "Christopher Columbus never knew that he had dicovered America; and perhaps .lames G. Blaine is not aware that he has discovered free trade.'' Representatives Bynum and Gros venor debated the tariiT at the Oswego (N. Y.) fair. Democratic Bynum got the cheers from the farmers. The Palladium says: "Well known Republi cans applauded him as heartily a5 did the most enthusiastic Democrats, and some of them united with their Demo cratic brethren in congratulating him at the close of his logical address." Senator George has made a "power ful speech" before the Mississippi Con stitutional convention.. He made a de cided impression. He denied that since l8fo the elections had been carried by force and declared (" that he conceded to the negro the same right to life and liberty and property that the white man eniovs, but he denied that the ne gro had the right to destroy the civili zation of Mississippi, and that right he was unwilling to accord him."

The copy for the two others is in hand. It is earned that the trustees of the library will perhaps" soon put thisjvaluame work on sale. Ihere are numerous demauds for it, not only by libraries but by private individuals. It is said to benhe most complete work of the sort yet published in the United States. Col. Sauuders has done a great dfal for North Carolina and sure ly tljiis is not the least of his public ser vices. The speaking on the 2"th .will be held at the fair ground, and the choice of that place is excellent. It is easy of access and just the place for the big .barbecue. In a day or two the list of speakers will be announced. Sena tor Vance will certainly be here, and some other distinguished Democrats. Vance will be given an ovation. The Al liance men intend to come in and show theiret-t of the people what thev think of "Old Zeb." The Alliance men in Wake are Democrats nearly to a ma.n. f Tobacco poured in yes-terday and last night. The receipts were larger than in any one day in three' years. The (breaks at the three warehouses to-day were immense and the reputation of tne .market for high prices was well .sustained'. There was a pretty good proportion of bright tobaec(. The wet weather of . course hurt- the tobacco some, by causing a late growth which affected cures; the tobacco in such cases being heavv and rank. Attorney General Davidson is back from his holiday at Ashevil'e, and looks very well. He gives glorious ac counts of Asheville. There are now liOO men at work at Vanderbilt's castle and; park. He saw three pieces of property in Asheville on which a mil lion of dollars will be expetided. in the next twelve months, tho expenditure having already begun. He tells me the tobacco west of the Blue Ridge is affected by the wet weather and is not curing as well as was expected. M;jch work is to be done at the fajr grounds in the next three weeks. The race track will be given particular at tention. Tho track is not used enough. One: would expect to see more racing here, where there is so much fast horde flesh. Ilaleigh ought to have spring races, for good purses. Mr. Ashcraft, ono of the brightest students at the Agricultural and Me chanical College, left yesterday for home, his eyesight having partially failed. There are now sixty-one board ers lat this college. The remaining fifteen students live in Raleigh and pay for their tuition. Governor Fowle receives many con gratulations upon his improvement in health. The cooler weather which has come has a very beneticial elTect upon him. The 105tll North Carolina reports is being sent out. It goes to all the Gov ernors of the various States, from the llxecutive Department. Mf. W: P. Batchelor, the well knosvn owner of that splendid horse, Panilico, is home again from New Kug- land. His grand horse is one of the few which can run faster each succes sive: heat, thus showing great spirit and staying power. A couple of convicts were brought to the onitentiary-from Union county to day.' As the cotton men say, the re ceipts of convicts during the past ten days have been "quite liberal,7 some thirty having come in. There are now sixty county convicts. Of these twenty are at work on the farm at the workhouse, while the others are bettering the public high ways. Never at this season of the year was the Capitol square anything near as attractive as at present. The grass is green and beautifully kept, while the trees have uot jet begun to cast their lea vies. The many new trees are grow- i-Ngrvigorously. Mr. A. 1. Holland, of Goldsboro, has the contract for grading the grounds at the encampment, being the lowest bidder. He gets to work this week, and! will "Use experienced white railway laborers, and good machinery. He has done much grading on railways and Is well recommended. He will also plant the Otaheite mulberry trees on the grounds: These will outline the place on which the tents will be pitched. The teuts will bo nearest the line of roadway in front. In rear will be four pavilions, each 50x100 feet, which will not only afford a grateful shade but will be used for instruction and! recrea tion and as mess halls. In a general way the plan will be that followed at Sea Girt, New Jersey, and at Niantic, Connecticut; both excellent models as National guard camps. The grounds after grading will be ploughed, harrowed, trenched and put down in cane grass, and will be sur rounded with a wire fence. About thirty acres will be thus treated. Two pieces of swampy ground will be clear ed of timber and drained. The com fort of the troops will in every way be assured and a complete system of water supply will be provided. Contracts for all these are made, as also for bath houses at a point in the channel, where at all stages of tide there is a good depth of water. Governor Fowle takes a deep interest in the improvements at the camp, as indeed he does in all things which concern the welfare and efficiency of the State Guard. The engineer is at work looking after the heating apparatus of the capitol, so as to have all in perfect shape when cold weather comes. WILMINGTON, N. O..SATUKOAY. SEPTEMBER ;20.: FOREIGN NEWS. TheArrent of 'IrUh Leadrrt the General Topic In London and Dublin Freshlest Carnot to VUit iuen Victoria. Duhlix, Sept. 19. The busiest place in Dublin to-dav U the headquarters of the Land League. Nationalists are calling in a constant stream to learn the latest news in regard to arrest and to consult on plans of action for the immediate future. Mr. Dillon who came on to Dublin last night Is the cen tre of an animated circle. No note of despondency is detected in the utter ances of the leaders; on the contrary there seems to be fresh confidence and new enthusiasm instead of regarding the arrests lis a calamity the prevailing tendency is to rejoice at them as a blessing In disguise. Tho action of Balfour, the Nationalists hold to have been a most tactical blunder for the Government. They are satisfied that it will result in signal advantages to the Irish- cause. The inability oL Messrs. Dillon and O'Brien to make the proposed trip to Amer ica is much regretted, but tae plan of presenting the true state of Ireland tj the American public by means of speeches by leading Irish orators has not been abandoned. Who will be selected to go to America has not jet been determined. In Mr. O'Brien's absence it was not considered desirable to come to any decision in so important a matter. It is certain that men prominent in the Nationalist party will be selected to undertake the work in America which Messrs. Dillon and O'Brien had hoped to do. Sydney, N. S. W., Sept. 19. Two thousand special constables have been enrolled. The Lab. r Conference has finally decided to call out the sheep shearers and wool carriers next Wed nesday. Dl'ULIX, Sept. I'J.

The Courier Fran cause says that President Carnot is expected to visit Queen Victoria at Windsor next spring. London, Sept. 10. Ad vices' from Hiago state that the Turkish man-of- war Ertogroul has foundered at sea and that five hundred of her crew were drowned. The ErtogrouPwas a wooden frigate-built cruiser of 2844 tons dis placement. She mounted forty-one guns of small calibre and was built in 18G3. O.-man Pacha and Ali Pacha, envoys of the Sultan to the Emperor of Japan,were passengers on her and were drowned. Pahis, Sept.19. France has entered into contract to supply the Russian Government with an enormous num ber of rifles. According to the terms of the contract, 500,000 of weapons will be delivered within eighteen month. London, Sept. VJ. The arrest of the Irish leaders yesterday fills a conspic uous place in the newspapers through out the United Kingdom this morning. Various explanations are surmised to account for Balfour's sudden stroke. The commonest one on the part of the Liberal press is -that the object was to prevent Dillon and O'Brien from going to America to arouse American sympathy and solicit American aid-. Conservatives, however, scout the idea that Balfour could have acted from such a motive. They see in his present policy a laudable effort to prevent the recurrence of disorder in Ireland. On the whole, one gets tho impression that the predominant public opinion is so far extremely-doubtful of the -wisdom or expediency of the Government's course. . Telegraph Sparks. The President yesterday signed the River and Harbor bill and Anti-Lottery bill and they are now laws. He had them brought up from the White House for this purpose. A special to the Evening Wisconsin from Whitehall, Mich., says aniincen diary fire swept awayT the business por tion of that place early yesterday morning. Thirty dwellings were con sumed. Loss $100,000. Tnree-fourths covered by insurance. At yesterday morning?s session of the Colorado Republican State con vention John L. Routt, of Arapahoe county, received nomination for Governor, and Judge Wra. Storey, of Ouray, for Lieutenant-Governor. Col. Jacob M. Thornburgh ex-member of Congress from the Second Ten nessee district, died at Knoxville yes- terday morning, aged 53 years. He was elected to Congress in 1S72, '74 and 7ti as a Republican. Charles F. Williams, a real estase agent, was arrested at Birmingham, Ala., last night charged with using the mails for fraudulent purposes. His letter heads states him to be the repre sentative of the "American Timber Land Company," with a capital of ten millions, which concern is alleged to be a myth. Oraveftend Kaces.

Rj G- DUN ,1 CO.'S WEEKLY REVIEW AND SUMMARY OF TRADE. Stringency n th Money Market lUlleted by the Larga Iarria or Itoad by the Government, and ICate of Interest much j:ducei Huftlneaa Failure Foreign Hank Loe S6 .500.00 Gold. NEW YORK, Sept. 19. Secretary Windom's heavy purchase of 4 per cent, bonds lha brought immediate ea?e in the money market. No iin- j healthy expansion of speculation has appeared as yet and commercial loans arw again quoted at 6 to 7 per cent., while money on call jias fallen from about 1(H) to 4i percent. It is impor tant to notice that the pressure for money still increases at most of the in terior centre?, and the banks, of Eng land, France and Germauv lo-t about S0,5X),000in gold lat wee. Until the crops move more freely the future of the New York money market will not be entirely unclouded. The root of the difficulty i is that- wheat is graded at 03! at Chicago and $1,021 here, and only about il.0.J at Liverpool for he same grade, so that to free and natural movement to the seaboard or hence to Europe can take place. The exports of wheat and corn are not half those of last year at correspond ing dates, but imports are coming for ward in large volume, the anxiety to get goods entered here before the new taritT goes into effect being great. The movement during the past week has been toward a natural adjustment of prices and wheat is 3 cents lower, with sales of 31,000,000 bushels; corn H cents lower, with sales of 12,o00,0(K) bushels; cotton an I cent lower, with sales of 320,000 balesand iard and hogs a shade lower, but oats have risen a fraction, oil nearly a cent aud butter and some other farm products are higher. Interioj money markets are gener ally closer with strong demand, which an unprecedented volume of business naturally causes. Closeness also ex ists at some Southern points; Galves ton hopes fori relief as soon as cotton moves; Atlanta reports cotton going forward rapidly and not much trouble caused hy tight money; and Savannah reports a close market with receipts of 37,000 bales cotton, 15,500 barrels rosin and 3,650 casks spirits. The consumption ot iron is enormous; the largest ever known, and plate, structural, sheet and wrought pipe works are crowded. But new business in bar iron is not heavv and the de mand for rails is dull, with some sales at $30, and reports of others even lower. The feeling that the consumption of iron may not be quite sustained on the the whole while production is largely increasing, causes a weakness in the market for pig iron, though quotations dor t cnanffe. The great increase in gate's ot "woof make a revival in that manufacture and cotton manufacture is active, the de cline in raw material helping. The dry goods business is growing in activity and shipping departments are crowded. Eyen the woolen. goods im provement over last year is conceded. The stock market declined steadily, while money was scarce and tight and the recovery has as yet been but mod erate. The business failures number for the United States 164. Canada 2i;" total 190, compared with 193 last week. isouth Carolina Ilepublicano. Columbia, S. C, Sept. 19. The Re publican State convention to-day elect ed Internal Revenue Collector Web ster chairman of the State executive committee. The platform adopted en dorses the administration and Speaker Reed's course, calls for the passage of the Blair Educa'iooal bill and of the Lodge Force bill and declares South Carolina's educational system wholly inadequate. II. Deas, colored, of Darlington, offered the following: licsohxd, In order to secure a just, liberal and impartial administration lor all the people of the State, regard less of party or color, the members of this convention hereby .determine to eupportsat the polls as choice for Gov ernor, Chief Judfe A. C. Haskell, of this citj and that the State executive committee bo instructed to carry out the wishes of the convention in this respect. Mr. Deas' speech, in support of his resolution, was the sensation of the ccn vention. He took the ground that the convention had a splendid oppor tunity to do something to 6how to the people o the State that the Re publicans of South Carolina had 6ome regard for decency and good govern ment and some detestation of Till manism." All over the State it was being asked if the Republicans would not havo the manhood and courage to put up a ticket, either Republican or Democratic, for which the decent ele ment of the State could vote. He for one wanted decency or wanted noth ing. All of the trouble in the State came from the rule of illiterate whites, and he did not want that to go on any longer. After much speech making the con vention decided not to adopt the reso lution. Judge Haskell is a leading aoti-Tillmanite and one of the foremost Democrats of South Carolina, with a fine military and civil record. No nominations for State offices were made, and after 3 o'clock this morning the convention adjourned sine die. Superintendent of Mine Ainatel. Nashville, Tenn., Sept. 19. Word came from White-side, Tenn., that K. D. Davis, Superintendent of Aetna coal mines was yesterday shot from ambush, receiving fatal wounds. There has been trouble In the mines, the men employed having quit last July and they were told a few days since that unless they resumed work their places would be filled by convicts. Out of this it is supposed grew the assassi nation. hO. it AJiuqn 1G a iruLuoAii iionnoK. A l'tMt(tr Train on iha Ited!nc road tH-t lato the Whf tktll KUer SrDl'rrMn Killed aad Thltty Irjored.

Mr. Porcher, of the large rice firm of Slip- pen & Poreher, of this city, ha 1 an investigating the damage to the ice crops by the heavy rains of the last ten days, and he savs: "A great deal of the Carolina nee has been cut and is stacked in the fields.

Of the Louisiana crop about 800,000 bushels have already been put on the market.

Wafthintrton Newi. WASHINGTON, Sept; 19. The con ference on the Tariff bill this morning did not touch upon matters of public interest. The proceedings were con fined to action upon ro forma amend ments or those involving no pronounced differences 'of opinion. The sugar, binding twine and tariff commis sion clauses were not touched. It is the understanding of the Dem ocratic conferees that daily ses sions of the conference are to be purely format and that toints of real importance at issue are to bo brought forward only after the Republican managers have first adjusted their differences. It is said the metal sched ule is really tho principal obstacle to agreement by the Republican con ferees, the Senate conferees insist ing on its amendments lower ing duties and the House con ferees insisting on the restoration of duties in the bill as it passed the House, inasmuch as on many matters of importance they have yielded to the demands of the Senate. It is said that the sugar schedule has been agreed to by the Republicans but formal action i withheld until other matters of differ ence' are compromised. The general belief is now, that the conferees will hold their final session on Monday and that Congress will adjourn about a week later. The President signed the anti-Lottery and River and Harbor bilU at Cresson to-dav. Yeetenlay'e Games. Pittsburg New York", Alleghany . (League.) Pi tuburg Pittsburg 0 New York J. (Brotherhood.)
