The Republicans in many portions or the State are ."setting down" on the Liberal 'movement, but in Carteret, where they have uo showing on their own hook, they will probably be led by the Liberals 1 An incessant downpour of ain for ten successive days has done incalculable damage to the crops in many parts of Germany.' In some districts the harvest is com pletely ruined. The grain crops of all descriptions, which by this time should have tieen nearly all har vested, lie rotting in. the lields. The disaster is all the greater and more disappointing;. since; for sev enty years past Germany. had llot had the promise of so abundant a harvest as that of the present year. . TnE arrivals of-immigrants du ring the fiscal year ending June .10, 1882, are numerically unprece dented; The sum total of souls quitting foreign lands to make their homes in the republic ' was TSiMXtt which was 119,fi72 .more than the previous year. As has been Uh; case uniformly tor several years'1, ins past, Germany gives the largest quota. The number of immigrants from fatherland was 249,505. From England and Wales, which come next upon the list, the arrivals were . 7f,17r. Ireland fur nished 75,4,12 of her unhappy people.- Sweden followed wit h (4,(t(7. The number of arrivals from Cana da is officially, set down at '93,308, but a large part of these simply made the ..Canadian .ports' their place of entry to the new world. The increase in Chinese immigra tion was decidedly 'marked, in 18SI it was 'J,S!)0; in 1882, .39,579. The great port of arrivals is New York, as has always been the case. More than half a million immigrants la uded fit Castle Garden. - Port Huron received the. Canadian title, and ranks next to New York.

Edwards the Journal has very pronouneed and decided views. Iu addition to the able and impartial manner in which Judge Gilmer has presided in the past, he has received the nominaiion from the Democrat ic party in a coiitest made in the party by his present opponeut. And when this opponent, having failed to get the nomination, seeks and gets the endorsement of the opposite party, it smacks of treach ery and deserves condemnation. A man who is a political traitor I may safely lie suspected of possess j ing a mind not sufficiently balanced .... i.:... i i. j m riiimio nun ui intuw oui jusiice in the courts. lint while condemning Mr. Ed- wards, the Journal piotests , against lighting him with his "Homestead record." The Chath am Record brings to light the fact that this man carried the celebrated case of Edwards . Kearzcy to the United States Supreme elmrt, wherein the North Carolina Home stead decisions were reversed as to old debts. I The editor of the Record is a good lawyer and he knows this decision is law, and good law also. He knows that the North Carolina de (cisit)ns never met with the approval of the liar of the State and shall any man be condemned for seeking his rights? Nay, should he not be "commended for setting aside deci- 'sions that were rather a disgrace to North Carolina judicial fairness? ! It is said that all is fair in poli- , t ics. We hope not. Judge Gilmer 'ought to be elected, but his friends 'should not seek votes by uuj ust arguments. His merits are suffi cient to entitle him to an election S Sunday excursions from the 'great cities have always caused :more or less auuovance to the j peaceful and pious inhabitants ol jsnourban towns. The appearance of a long procession of men, women, and children, headed by au eiier- i - j getic brass band aud a ' wagon-load of beer, certainly is not , calculated t inspire devotion iu the suburbs, and it may break lip the services. City multitudes are not noted ! for their consideration of the feelings of ot hers. In cit ies they cau march with warlike music without disturb ing the worshipers, and it rarely occurs to them that in a small vil lage the conditions are different. Many suburbs have taken steps to prevent the appearance of: the city hordes on Sunday, some by prohibitory legislation which is us ually warranted to cure tlio evil, and others by prevailing on rail road and steamboat companies to refuse to charter trains and vessels for the purpose. There is one fa vorite resort on the Hudson, how ever, where all peaceful means to rid the town of New York Sunday excursionists have been tried in vain, and where as a last resort war has been declared. Dobbs Ferry will have no more picnics within its limits on Sunday. The board of trustees havo decided as to that, and the president of the village, a grim old Sabbatarian, has been appointed commander-in-chief of the forces with power to act. His first move was the purchase of a cannon, which he placed on a small elevation commanding the steamboat dock. His next was the issuance of a proclamation to the vandals' in the metropolis, warning them on pain of death and mutila tion not to trespass on his domain. Last Sunday the old gunner was at his post, doubtless anxious for an opportunity to train his godly gun on the ungodly" multitude, but no opportunity presented itself. Dobbs' Ferry still remains under arms, however, and the press of New York is endeavoring to nego tiate for peace under a flag of truce. : It is becoming the correct thing nowadays for newspapers to take the religions census of various cit ies. Thus far St. Louis, Boston, and New York have shown figures of church attendance. Baltimore now comes in with the , showing that, taking the population ot 310, 000, there is a total church mem bership of 52 per cent. As in all the cities named, the Catholics, load. . Iu B.,U;;aore they are cred ited, with 110,000 members. The Methodists follow with "23,042, the Lutherans with 11,474, the4 Episco palians with 8,501, the Baptists with 6,837,' the Presbyterians with 4,'J'Jo and so on. In these showings it must be re membered that the Protestant church meaning of membership is stricter and better defined than is the case among Catholics, though even where they are found decided ly in the minority the attendants npon divine service by people ol tins denomination are more numer ousand regular than the attend ants upon Protrestant service, ex plained partly by the fact that in the Roman church Sunday atten dance is morally compulsory. Re ligious iudifferentism is a marked characteristic of the time, as has been shown in all the church sta- I am too well informed of the, utter and conteniptiblo hollownoss, of the hyp- of bouio of you to ever desire a very close oflkual connection ' with von. Those who under the cover of secrecy, through political friends, buv off nartisan onoo- silion before an election, by considera tions iu votes to oe delivered afterwards, are not, to say the least, such official companions as one would desire to be in too close communion with. Frank Dar by to the City Council of WUminaton. That sounds like "sour grains." Ho doesn't want "a very close- of ficial connection" with them I "Not such official . companions as one would desire to bo in too close com munion with!" 1 ; But M r. Darhy never found this out until he was asked to resign. Ho wrote a pretty sharp letter in reply, but he puts it oh too steep when he pretends to lie glad to cut loose from them. ' lie wouldn't iac- cept the nomination for Judge, but would accept the office ! Worked well in city harness until asked out, and then didn't want it at all ! This world is full of shams aud politics biings them to the surface. Twenty-Seventh Regiment. At a meeting of the surviving members of the late 27th Rec't. ,N. C.

V On motion, a committee of one from each Comnanv was iuumintoil by the chair to draft resolutions expressive of the sense of the meet- mg. The committee withdrew and after a short absence reported the following preamble and resolutions which were unanimously adopted: 1. Whereas. Co. A. of the lata 27thReg't.,.N.O. S. T. has called together the remnant ot our Reg't. in order to alford those of us who are left an onnortunitv to meet once more and shake hands iu so cial reunion. . Be it resolved. 1st. That we herebv tender our old comrades of Co. A. our heart felt thanks for their cordial hospi tality an$ wish theruvone and all a long and prosperous career of use fulness and haiminess which we can testify thev have lono- arm earned by their faithfulness to trusts imposed upon them m times when the bravest of men might well have been pardoned for the lack pf steadfastness. 5 2d. That we very sincerelv re- jrret the absence to-dav of so manv of our trusted leaders of the days gone uy ami while we , think of each with afl'ection we especially deplore the absence of him who so gallantly led ns, first as Colonel and auerwarus as Jingacle Commander; General John R. Cooke: "who. though a resident of a sister State, will always live iu the hearts of North Carolinians and especially of the survivors of the old 27th Reg't. and their descendants, also Col. Gilmer. 3. That our thanks are also dun and are hereby, tendered to the citizens of Goldsboro and Wayne county, and especially the ladies for thft PTont, intflrosf-. thov hava o - j i i manifested in our reunion, and for the hospitable manner, in which they have provided for our enter tainment. 4. That we consider it hip-hlv important that a truthful record of our command in the lafe war should be written , and preserved for our children and therefore hope that the. survivors will take.some action looking to the gathering and col lating the necessary data for a cor rect history of the same. 11.

Slocumb, Sec'y. Death of Senator Hill (New York Sun.) Atlanta. Aus. -in. SemaW Behjamirt Hill died a few minutes after (5 o'clock this morning. For several hours before his death it was evident that the end Was near. i Like a a'ood manv other imnni- nent men in Georgia, he was bit terly opposed to rue secession of that State from the Union, and voted against it in the convention, but he, with the others, followed th State after eccession had been decided upon. He entered politi cal rather than military life in the Confederacy beffinniiia- ns a mem ber of the Confederate Provisional Congress, and was subsequently one of the Senators from Georcisi, while the Confederacy lasted. He was in prison lor a short time at Lafayette at the close of the (inn- federacy, and then returned to . i i . . . . weorgia to practise law. Although he at once iumned into the lnro-pst. practice in Georgia, the fascina tions of political life were so great tnat he consented to run for Ren- resentative iu the Fortv-fourth Congress, and was elected, and reelected to the Fortv-fifth. and while a member was elected to the Senate and resigned from the House. His term as Senator would: have expired next March. lie and Senator Brown were rival tjahiddates twenty-five vear's ago for Governor, and were always upon opposite sides m Georgia politics un to the time of the see- cession of that State, and they were ir . ii . i . unauy nrougnc together when Brown was elected: to the Senate ill place of Gen. Gordon, who had resigned: When they met in the Senate their lifelong political dif ferences seemed only to make more strong the attachment which was visible to all. Hill never made a sneech to ; which Brown was not an attentive listener, nor did ; Brown ever sieak unless Hill was present, excentinsr. indeed. when- Hill was kept, away by sickness. Hill was a man of larcro brain aud of rather quick temper. His personal encounter with a lellow Senator in the Confederate Con gress was one of the tragic incidents of that body. He had, however, in his older years been able to control his temper, and had mellowed greatly. There was no man on the Democratic side for whom the Republicans had a higher personal regard, and while he grew day by day seemingly more radical in his Democracy, and came to le re cognized as one of the leading men iu the Senate of the so-called Bour bon faction, yet his personal rela tions with Senators ou the Repub lican side were so kindly and pleasant that' his'; bitter invective never left any personal sting. He even became oleasantlv ac quainted ' and ' associated with Mahone. a thuiErthat at the time of their encounter on the floor of the Senate in the spring of 1881 would nave seemed almost imposible. Hill's sudden discovery of the fatal disease last summer undoubtedly gave him for more concern than lie ever exhibited. He took his seat in the Senate at the bcrnum?'' of the kc : :ion. as Matt Can ts.ter ill 1 a year a so, knowing that he was a doomed man. Yet he betryed no sign of fear or apprehension. His philosophy of life seemed to lie broad enough to enable him, as it did Carpenter, not only to accept the inevitable without repining, but also with such large show of cheerfulness ar to deceive his friends, even his familly. His death removes one of the most distinguished and familliar figures in Washington lite, lie was not a man who hid his talents or his frailties under a bushel, and his career had a human interest which attached to but few other members of the Senate. With his death there passes away another and almost the last ot that extra ordinary group of men which made the conflicts in the Forty-fifth and Forty-sixth Congresses so notable. A visitor to the Senate chamber now notices the absonce of Conk ling. Blaine, Thurinan, Carpenter. Hamlin, and Hill all of whom took a conspicuous part m those con troversies, but none a more brilliant and lntluential part than the sharp, emphatic Senator from Georgia. Of those loaders, Beck, Hoar, and Kumunds are now almost t he ouiy Senators of note who remain. Among Senators he was personally very popular, and the round robin letter of sympathy which they scut him, and in which tribute Senator Hoar took the initiative, expressed the sincere leelingsot his colleagues This letter gave Senator Hill the greatest pleasure, and did much to sustain him iu his last illness.
