When the governor came aboard he waa cordially . greeted by Captain Miller and bis officers and was escorted personally by the Caotain to the poop, where the ceremony of presenting the testimonial was to take place. ' In the meantime, the launch and boats brought great crowds over from the Wilmington and from Southport, who came to see the cruiser and wrtne the ceremonies. ' The handsome gold lineal silver punch bowl and silver ladle had been placed on deck and was covered with the ship's col ore. Around it assembled the Governor and stalf, Captain Miller and his olfiuers i and hundreds of people. At 1. p. ru Governor Carr stepped forward snild sp plauie, and addressing Captuin Miller, mid: .

' (Applause.) : The Governor then introduced the Hon S. A. Ashe, of Raleigh, who, be stated, wonld deliver the testimonial in behalf of the citizens of North Carolina. 'Captain Asbe, after speaking of the pleasure it would give him to be the in strument of making the presentation In behalf of tlie good people of North Caro lina, and of the high appreciation of the people of the State and particularly of the City of Raleigh, that the Goverment bad complimented that city by naming such a splendid cruisef after it, welcomed the cruiser and the officers and the crew to the waters of North Carolina, and h concluded by expressing the interest which tho : people of ' North Carolina would always cheerish for the cruiser Raleigh and for those connected with her, and the earnest hope which they enter tained that she would add lustre to flag of our country, that her career woul be one ot triumph in every conflict.and that prosperity and felicity would ever attend her and her officers and the men who formed her crew. Captain Miller replied briefly to Cap tain Ashe, and when he stepped forward be was greeted ' with enthusiastic ap plause. The Captain thanked him lot his words of welcome and his remarks so full of historic interest, and said he wot glad to be in North Carolina waters on such an occasion. (Applause,) I con gratulate you upon the fact that a ship ol this size can come in to easily and salely over your bar. .' (Enthusiastic applause.) It shows that you ' have a magnificent harbor, and it will increase the commeict and add to the prosperity of your city as well as be a neat benefit to the agncul tural interests of your Stale. (Applause) He was glad to say that North Carolina was always a friend of the navy, and in conclusion be thanked the citiaena (ol North Carolina for the beautiful teatinio oial which was before him. Be remarsjed that it was a very appropriate gift (Laugh ter and applause), and it seemed that I it should be noUe some practical purpose,'! as the governor of North Carolina used to say to the governor of South Carolina: (Laughter), . ; v Captain Miller proposed three eaeere and a tiger tor Governor Carr And the citizens of North Carolina, and they were given lustily by the officers and crew, There are 263 men and 30 marines on board the ship, and after three cheers and a tiger had been given the men lustily gave the following cry "Rah! Bahl Rahl Who are we? We are the sons of the new nav-e-e Are we in ill Yea, ws are! Baleigbt Raleigh! Bah! Bah! Bahl" ,, The bowl was then carried to the loon, and Captain - Miller escorted tlie governor and his party and a large num bar of guests to the saloon, where the bowl had quickly been supplied with de lightful punch. The tables were supplied with snowy linen and were spread with a banquet that would : have done honor to the best hostelries in America- It was served by polite Japanese waiters, and the ship's officers assisted in seeing that their guests were bountifully and royally served. During the banquet Dr. Mo- Nellie," an eloquent and brilliant New Enghvnder, was called for and responded in an Interesting and good humored speech that scintillated with wit. ' Then followed a great social lime all over the ship between the visitors and the cruiser's officers.

The Populist State Committee was in session all night and until noon today, then Chairman Ayer sent Chairman Manly a letter saying, all negotiations for fusion were ended. Their reason for.tbe declination of the Democratic proposition of Tuesday, for State, Congressional and legislative fusion, are given as follows. First. When the Proposition for eUc toral co-operation was submitted to oiu Chairman, by your committee, August 1st, our committee, submitted a counter proposition; looking to complete and compact union of silver forces all a'ong the line, but the said proposition wus ig nored by jour committee. , Second. Should such a co-operation as suggested and contemplated in yonr proposition of October 13th, be fuvoiubly considered by our committee at tins lime, we are of the opinion that owing to tlie short time before the 'election a t-atixl'ut- to.y arrangement and alignments could not be effected on either side, and there fore would not receive cuch hearty mid loyal support as would make success an assured fict. Third. We entertain no hope of bcinp able to make you a proposition whi:h would be acceptable to you, and at tin same time be sustained by the lull fnrce both the Democratic and 1'copleV party, but we venture the suggestion here, which if adopted by you, woulu eliminate at least one of the dangen which you declare is menacing the State, namely, the election of a Republican for Governor. This suggestion is the voluntary with drawal of your nominee lor Governor, and concentration of the Democratic forces on the nominee of tlie Peoples' jwity for Governor. We are vncouruged to make this sug gestion by the following declaruliou in the State Democratic platform : ' W u de clare .our. belief that peace, prosperity unci happiness of the people of North Caroli na depends oo tlie defeat of the Kcpubu. can Slate ticket in the coming election."
