Piddock, who has just aeleated United btates Sena tor. Van Wyck, of Nebraska, , re turns' to the Senate after an ab sence of ; six years. He was a member of that body from 1875 to?.i 88 1 when he was succeeded by Charles H. Van . Wyck, whom he now replaces The German Counsul at Lon don emphatically; denies the statement that German residents in England have been requested by him to hold themselves in readiness to report for millitary duty at the headuqarters of their respective departments in Ger many on twent-four hours' notice.

He says it. is the duty of every ; man to so use his own 'property that it will; inot do injury to another; and the duty which the owner of a fence owes his neigbor is a duty to be performed , with reference to the use of the adjoining land: If that land is used for pasturing horses or cattle a man has no, right to ; put up a fence which : may injure1 , them, . fThe barbed-wire" manufac turers propose to appeal the case.: ... " . . . . ; J .. v . s Does not this decision go a long -way in support of prohibition ? isn t,it awtul that' the law should forbid a man to put up a barbed wire fence on his own land ?; . i - - .. - FEMALE SUFFRAGE. We are glad the senate satdovvn ' upon Senator -Blair's female suf , f rage bill. -The' very idea of going to the polls and voting is repug nant to. the refined nature of a cultivated woman, and while there are a large number of advo-. cates of what is.popularlytermed women's rights at the north, ir. is a matter for hearty congratulation that such ideas have so far taken but little - root in the south; Man hood suffrage, without restriction ' is a dangerous experiment, and one which is destined yet to come; : up as a momentous problem to - be solved by the future lawmak-: ers of .this country. That the -southern . states of this union should have been subjected to the political degradtion brought about by the v enfranchising of nearly - half of their populationcorisistfng . of ignorant negroes, : emancipated v slaves, is ' one of the, wonders of modern ', human; governments. That they should have managed the delicate question as well as - "- " "- - : ' " i .. "' .'O '-." t.,- . " . -:'-.

Sena tor Blair proposes to turn loose upon Ithe country, as full fledged voters all the Dr. Mary Walker Susan-B,-Anthony-tribe of the north and the negro women of the south-fdr - southern ladies could not be made - to vote and thus add confusion worse than con founded to the labor question by invading the domain of southern cooks and putting them to watch ing ahe boiling; of the political pot instead of the dinner pot to which by, nature, education and previous condition they are pecu liarly ; .fitted Danville- Register. COUNTY GOVERNMENT. Action of tho Houbo on the Bill to - Elect Magistrates and' Commis sioners by tho People. Describing the discussion of the question, the Raleigh correspon dent of the Richmond Dispatch says: . , ' -: ';-..-' : ' - Ex-governor Brogden (Repub lican) next spoke, or rather read a long -speech. It was very ab surd, abounding in Scriptural and poetical. quotations. v The House and galleries laughed 'and , ap plauded until the hall was in an uproar. Brogden thought he had made a great effort. He attacked county government, but was ut terly crushettwhen Overman ask- ed him if he did not four vears ago leave the Republican party and issue a circular eulogizing the present system of county govern ment. Brogden wilted, merely remarking that he was not hereto explajn the record. The previous question was call ed. The House, first by a vote of 101 to i voted down Evarts' amendment to' exempt from the provision of the bill the fourteen counties - with negro majorities, arid then, by a vote of 100 to o, Holt's amendment to exempt any counties which the census shovvs to have a negro majority. The House next voted upon Pritch ard's amendment to Pinnix's bill, and adopted it-r-,54 to 52. .There was the utmost' excitement anH xperfect ;. 'silence as this vote was taken. The bill as amended was vput upon its second reading and passed 54 to 52. Some Demo crats were absent and this chang ed the" vote. Of the Independents, Pearson- Lindsay and Parham voted against ; the, bill while Pas chall voted for it and Walters dodged. r . V . ; There; was a rather sertsational incident when Osborne, of Meck lenburg, asked if Hussey (negro Republican) was not paired with Kell (Democrat). Hussey said he was paired up to yesterday. As Kell left for Charlotte last night, this looked like a doubtful state ment, and Kell's brother-members from 'Mecklenburg say-Hussey spoke, falsely.; But for this the vote would-have been 53 to 53, and Speaker Webster Would have had to cast the - deciding vnt J which would have been-against wi. .., ;iucic was great ap plause on the Radical side wh'en .the . result of the vote was an nounced. The attempt to put the bill on its third reading was ob jected to by the Democrats. : 'One curious incident to-day was that Pirlnix. in speaking on - the bill, referred to war and spoke of the cruelty or Confederates, say ing :ithey had - shot his father. Overman thereupon asked,him if nc lucdnt 10 iuipiy mac nis rm nix's); father was a deserter. f The Speaker tried to make the inquiry out of order-but Overman again and again pressed it. 1 Finally Pinnix said: his father was shot as he was' trying; to go over to the Yankees. ; i This iraised . a great .laugh. , ; . ' Thetbill , as it - passed provides for 5 the election "of magistrates, commissioners and public school officers ; by" the :V people--three ma gistratcs in each township, and three "; commissioners - for each county, the latter to give approv ed bond for $2,000 each. - v STATE NEWS.
