The plans for the StevenBon rally ardi State convention of Democratic cluba; are beginning to take definite form. Last evening at the reguUr meeting: of the Cleveiand-Carr club the matter; came up for coasideratioo and several; committees reported. Over half the! amount required has already been: raieed and inn committee contemplate little difficulty in obtaining the re mainder. It was moved that the Com mittee on Programme invite the Nor folk, Va., Light Artillery to attend the celebration and fire a salute upon the arrival of the pariy. The local dele gates to the State convention of clubs were appointed. As was expected tne Stevenson speaking will be held in the ground a, of St. Maryta school, whie the conventioa wiil meet in the- Btronach auditorium. Many other town 3 are preparing for the reception of the party but Raleigh's celebration will excel them all i The World's Fair exhibit from North Carolina is to be complete. A fumi gator has been put up just in rear of the agricultural building.

The process u tedious and rather costly, but neces sary Some of tne jellies and fruits in the culinary department have been re ceived. These show up well; the iirs are attractive and the fruit almost per fect. One jar of pears occasions much comment Irom those who have seen the exhibit. Many pronounce these pears the finest ever seen here. The preparation of birds and animals is going on as rapidly as could be expect ed. . There will be epecimtns of all bird9 and bests found in the State. Tne question that is agitating the politicians just now is, W hat wiJl the Mott fac'ion do." It was reported that they would be propitiated by the nomination of J C. L. Harris for elec tor from this district, but nothing of the kind was done. Never were a set of men more completely shut-out of anything than they were in the recent conventions, State and Congressional. It, remains to see whether they will follow the action of Dr. Mott and sup port the Democratic ticket. ; The entertainment held for the ben efit of the Confederate monument to be erected in Capitol square has been a remarkable success. It was held in Nash square, opposite the new union depot. Tenta were , scattered all through the square and electric lights studdtd the place. The usual reiresn menta were Ber,ved by young ladies aud in addition there were many old Con- federate relics, flags and uniforms, and the boys of Raleigh had an excellent amateur circus which performed every hour. This; entertainment for this worthy cause gratifies the people by its succeed The concert for the same ob jfft. ia held to-night.

The Democratic National Committee lo Inreetlsaie Tboronthlf the Re . liru on Which Be Baaed HI a Heport on Labor. i New YORK,Sept. 9. Josiah Qulncy, chairman of the Committee ou Cam paign Literature of the Democratic National committee, this afternoon issued the following statement: I When Mr. Peck's report was made public the Committee on Literature of the National Democratic Campaign committee did not consider that It called for any attention other than that which it received in the press.! It was not felt that Mr. Peck's standing as a statistician was buffioient to call: for any formal attempt to refute the con clusions of his report, and it was con sidered that its hostile political ani mus was so evident that both its sub stance and the time and method- of j its publication made its purpose so plain no intelligent mn would be misled by it. But the fact that President Harrison has seen fit to dignify the report j by citiug it as authority in his letter of acceptance has put the matter in Euch light that the committee feels cabled upon to take official notice of it. Mr. Peck stated to a representative of -this committee, who was sent to Albany immediately after the publication of the report, that ha ,wiuld be' glad to ubmit the methods employed by him in its preparation to the exami nation of any committee appointed for that purpose, and in the inter view published in the New Yprk papers be made the same proposi tion. Toe committee believes that no sufficient investigation can b j made of the bais of the report without a fuli disclosure of the names of the manufacturers supplying the returns upon, which it i claimed to be based, and that no public officer has the right to treat sue a returns as his private property. The manufacturers who have increased their wages to gener ally, according tc Mr. Peck's report, can have no motive for concealment. Those of them who desire Republican success should certainly have every diss position to give as much pub licity as possible to any Increase of wages which they have made. Any specific instances of increase of Swages which Mr. Peck claims to have been made on such extensive scale, the committee is ready to subject to thir pugh investigation, but in the absence ijt opacifications no credit can be given to buca claims. The JCommittee on Campaign L'terature has, therefore, aeemed it proper to send representa tives to Albany to get from Mr Peck all the information which he may be willirg ti disclose, and to make a formal demand upon him jfoe any information or returns which he may withhold. J. Schoeuhof, the well knowD writer upon economics and statistics; E. Ellery Andereon.a well known member of the New York bar,aod Edward F. McSweeney,who h? s long been prominent in labor organi zational have, accordingly, been a?ke to act as the committee to make such Investigation and h&ye consented, j A letter was addressed to Mr. Peck ask-, jng him. on behalf of the Democratic National committee, to give the com mittee all the information. Mr. Peck is hot in Albany now. Mr. Anderson has authority to begin mandamus pro- THIS GHOIMA.

The stock mar ket! was again principally profes sional -to-day. New England pa came less prominent. St. Paul gave no response whatever. to the! declaration of a dividend, and while It kept within the narrowest limits during the entire day, was al lowed to fall below 81, in the face I cf the jBtrength displayed by other pomi neni Btdcke. The feeling on Coal shares was better. Reading still led the list in activity and gathered Strength as the) day wore on. . One of the most prominent features was the revival! of interest in Richmond and West Point, some activity in it being accompanied by a! fractional advance, but, like all of the movements during the day, it was spasmodic and soon died away. Among the i Industrials, Distillers, General Electric Lead and Sugar were pkid mostj attention to, all rising about 1 per dent, but later sinking into general dull nets and stagnation.

The igeneral feeling seemed to be lhat while the cholera shadow is hanging over the market there can be little activity and no material improvement. Cholera reports were more closely scanned than any other news. j Wheat closed with about Jc gain, corn lie loss? oats about c higher; pro visions moved up several points.

New York. Sent 9 Ths nwi tele graphed f rem Stripy Hook and quar antine this morning is to the effect that the HamburgAmerican line steamship Wieland, which passed Sandy Hook shortly after 6 o'clock this morning reached the lo war bay at 7:13 o'clock and there anchored and hoisted ai yellow flag, indicating that she has sickness, prooably cholera, on board. The Wieland ia not one of the first class steamers, bat is a vessel of about the same size and build as the Rueia, which is now In the lower quarantine. The Wieland, however, carries both cabin and steerage passengers, and, no doubt,1 has her usua full complement of the Utter. I T The! yellow flag has also again been hoisted on board the steamer Nor man n la where so many saloon passen gers are detained in epite of the fact that the scourge seems to be attacking the steamship's crew and steerage pas Eeogers alone. j It is a relief to know that Sandy Hook also telegraphs, that the dreaded flag has not been hoisted this morning on board the Itugla or Moravia and hopes are entertained that, there will ba do further outbreaks of the disease on board of these two steamers. The White Star line steamer Brl tania from Liverpool also passed San day Hook this morning and as she did po the signal "report me all well" was fluttering from her signal halyards. Though this news of another cholera ship in port increases the gravity of the situation at quarantine, there is no alarm felt in official circles here, apd the health authorities still feel confi dent of being able to keep the dreaded invader from landing on our shores. The .cholera record up to this morn ing, without counting the cases which may be announced to-day, is as follows:. JNew cases yesterday, ten; number of deaths yesterday, four; total deaths in this port, fifteen: total deaths on pas sage to this port, thirty-one; sick and under treatment, sixteen. Washington, Sept. 9. The War Department this morning reluct antly gave assent to the use of a por tion of Sandy Hook as a detention sta tion for the passengers and immigrants on the ships now lying in the lower bay of iNew York harbor. This action was taken this mortving, it is stated, by Gen.' Grant acting Secretary pf. War upon the representations of Secretary Fosterjand Secretary Tracy, who both urged the necessity of taking prompt action to remove quarantine persons to a place of Bafety. Gen. Grant stated that a telegram had been received, after consent had -been given for the occupation of the Hook, from the Pres ident at Loon Lake, in which he stated that id his judgement the request of Secretary Foster for temporary use of the island should be granted. I Newt York, Sept. 9. There have been iwo deaths of steerage passen gers, aged respectively 23 years and 6 months, on reard the Wyoming. Dr. Jenkins thinks it is suspicious as he cab not get any particulars. He sent the mother aart a child to Swinburne Island for observation. Diarrhoea is given as the disease.

Pleraont morgan Provides Steamer for the Normannla's Passengers. ; (Baltimore San.) New York, Sept. 8. Dr. Jenkins, health officer of this port, made the announcement this afternoon to the effect that the steamboat Stonington has been purchased by Mr. J. Pier pont Morgan for the cabin passengers of detained steamers. Dr. Jenkins re ceived the - following telegram from Mr. Morgan: ) ( ''The. emergency which exists for extending immediate relief to the cibini passengers on the Normannia and other ships confined at lower quar antine has led me to charter from the Stonington company the steamboat Sto nington, belonging to that line, for-tha use cf the cabin passengers from ships now detained at quarantine during the nressBt crisis". Please inform me I at once if you are prepred o accept this boat for the purpose mentioned ana, are willing to extend the relief to the pas sengers which the boat affords." I Dr. Jenkins has accepted this offer and the ISTormannla's passengers will be placed'ftboard for observation. Dr. Jenkins said tfc & he excepted the Stonington down to-morrow en ing or early on th'e day after, when the cabin passengers would be remov ed to her. She would be fitted up itO morrow, and had 12i staterooms, with three berths f n each- The receiving ship few Hampshire, as soon as she is ready, will be used for tee cabia p3 eengera of the Rugia. The Rugia's steerase passengers he would remove to Hoffman Island. 1 Island. They bad only been weeks out of Russia. All who come in contact with them will be sent down to Hoffman Island, for ex amination. The Joseph Johns arrived from Hamburg and anchored at the upper quarantine. She left on August 20th and reported all well and no sickness among her crew. . i Secretary Foster has just received' a telegram from Acting Secretary of War Grant giving the permission to use Sandy Hook as a quarantine sta tion. Work wiil begin at once on the island.) I The following appeal to the Governor was to-day forwarded to the Executive at Albany. ' I To Hon. R. P. Flower, Governor of the State of New York: j The undersigned committee, repre senting! the first and second cabin pas sengers of the steamer Normannia,now in quarantine at the port of New York, respectfully show that, as good citizens, we cheerfully submit to such detention as i may be deemed necessary by the sanitary experts for the preservation of the public health, but we hold that while undergoing such necessary de- ten Ion, we are entitled at the hands of the authorities to as much care and protection against infection aB any other body of healthy citizens, as any persons innocent of crime and Buffering discomfort reduced to a minimum, and to this end no expense should be spared or reasonable precautions neglected; but that such measures have not been taken, and 500 persons, mostly citizens of the United States, have been ex posed to infection, to their, own danger and to the danger of the public. To show this to be true we submit the following i facte: We have been dettined since 4 o'clock Saturday morning by the power of the health) officer, and yet -during that time co official inspection of the ship or visit to the sick has been made by that officer or any one representing him. No scientific expert or other aid has: been furnished to superintend the disinfection of the ship, but this work has been left entirely to the cap tain and his crew. Disinfectants, asked for and promised, have not been furnished, so that the work of disin fection begun by the ship officers has been stopped. No means has been provided for communication with the health officers, with thejresult that the sick and dead have been retained on the ship an undue time. Fresh water has not been provided to replace that placed on board from teElbe,although application has been made therefor, and water tanks of the ships have been emptied, cleansed and otherwise made ready to receive it. We hereby solemnly declare at this moment there is no illnes3 among the passengers, nor has there been for eight days. Nor is there any undue excitement, much less panics amongst them. Can It be possi ble that; the National Government, the Governor, the pres? and the people of New York will permit 500 of their fel low cttijans, all now in good health, to be lorger penned up on this ship with out a purpose or even any knowledge shpwo, Federal or State, that this chip has been properly disenfected. . Therefore we pray that your Excel! ency of I the Jersey, Theo. Heintelth, Julius Lum berg, Edwin U Goddin, Robert M Thompson, A. M Thompson,' A. M. Palmer, J. 8 Rosenthal, of Maryland, Dr. F Lange, Executive committee. LATER Dr. Wanner viaitpA t Wieland. He fovnd all well on board. Contrary to expectations she had cabin but no steerage passengers. Up to 8 o'clock there was one death and one new case among the Norman nla's crew. The dead man is Cari Bios eing, aged 38 years and the sick man is Edward Weiss, aged 21 years. The Wyoming, which had two sus picious deaths during her voyage and was Orcered to the lower n imranti n has 278 cabin and 363 steerage passengers. It is probable the cabin passengers on board.) the Normannia, Rugia and Moravia will soon be sent to better quarters, either on the steamers New Hampshire or Stonington or at Sandy Hook, Their detention amid the in fected surroundings is not alone wear ing on them, but on their friends in the metropolis. To-day Mr. L. . Gold Strieker, merchant of this city, rushed wildly into the office of the Hamburg American company and, while tears trickled down his cheeks, first demand ed and then besought the release of his mother and two brothers detained on the plague ship Normannia. During the efforts of teveral clerks to quiet him he talked of shooting Dr. Jenkins. Finally he left to carry his. appeal to the 'quarantine commissioners. I Reports received here show that the authorities in the JJnited States, Canada and Mexico "are thorpughly alive to the situation and have taken measures which will effectually check the cholera should it break out, and, from a sanitary view, be of great benefit if the cholera be averted. Con siderable troubled however, is being given shippers and vessel men. all porta having restriction in effect. Quarantine has almost universally been declared against ships from in fected ports. Detroit has purchased a. steamer and fitted her up as a cholera hospital should the disease ap pear via Canada. WASHINGTON CITY.

The census office .to-day issued a bulletin glying the statistics of the Methodist Episco pal Church, South and the Congrega tional Church. The returns show that the former has forty-two annual con ferences in this country, exclusive of three in mission fields abroad, with 1, 209,976 members and 15,017 organiza tions. These organizations have, in all, 12,687 church edifices, which, with their contents and lots, are valued at $18,775,362. It is a fact worthy of note that of the more than 20 ,000 colored members reported by this Church in 1860. only a very few remain in con nection with it. Thousands at the close of the war joined other Methodist bodies and in 1870 the Church set off most of those it then had into a sepa rate organization, known as the Col ored Methodist Episcopal Church, the returns of which are yet to be pre sented. The Methodist Episcopal Church, South, is strongest in Texas, where it has 138,347 members; Georgia second, with 134,600; Tennessee! third, with 121,398; North Carolina fourth, with 114.3S5; Alabama fifth, with 87.912.

A Dual. Hanging. SPARTANBURG, S C, Sept. 9. The quadruple hanging that was to have taken place to-day was converted into a dual one by Governor 'unman ordering a respite for thirty days for John Wil liams, the slayer of Major Hennemon and Milbry Brown, the child mur derer. Andy Jefferes and Adam Fos ter, two 23 year-old colored men ex piated their crimes of murder on a gallows within the inclosure in the jail yard in the presence of only the few men that the law permits. Nothing sensational occurred. Both men met death with stoicism and expressed themselves as ready to meet their God. Rey. C. C. Scott, colored, was their spiritual adviser and baptized each of them in their cells yesterday afternoon. The men were hanged together. Foster died very hard, but Jefferes died without a struggle. The doctors pronounced life extinct in about half an hour after the drop fell. The two murderers were each ignorant and illiterate. Foster . in February last killed Mosby Sanders, a negro. Jef feres in July last killed Wm. Atkins, an obscure white man. Public senti ment, with the negroes as well as the white population, approved the hanging.
