The newspaper, United Ireland,
published in Dublin, was yesterday
seized by Parnell, the principal
owner, and its edition destroyed,
on account ot its persistent advo
cacy of the retirement of Parnell;
the editor was ejected from the
office after an ineffectual resis
tance; a desperate row occurred
between the kherUTs officers and
the sab editors, but the latter were
subsequently put out of the build
ing; Parnell later addressed the
staff, the members of which promis
ed to serve him duriDg the remain
der of the crisis.
There is a deplorable account
of the massacre of Christians in
China. The Lon Sos Society, after
several days ol festivity, consulted
their gods as to whether it was
right to plunder the Christians,
and a favorable reply being given,
the heathen fell aboard of the
Christians at the Mission House at
Loug Tuy Tain, and massacred
twenty persons. The Mission
House and other structures were
burnt, and the corpses thrown Into
the river. Much trouble has en
suod. News & Observer.

A number of railroads in the State
have made special holiday rates of
travel. This is right and proper, and is
to be commended in every corporation
It offers opportunities to many who find
no other time for taking recreation from
their places of business and confine
ment, and also to many who soarcely
feel able to meet the present rate of
travel.
Yesterday was clearly indicative of
the revival of the busy stir of the holi
day trade. The good season this fall
will no doubt induce much heavier
purchases than for many years, and we
have no hesitation in stating that our
merchants are as well prepared with
variety and quality of goods, and as
low, if not lower prioes, than any
where in the State. The assertion is
made, belieying it to be true in every
sense of the word.
The Cotton and Grain Exchange held
a special meeting last night to appoint
a delegate to the Inter-State Immigra

Jonathan Havens was appointed and is
going to attend. Mr. Havene' appoint

author of a book on Eastern North Caro
lina and is well posted on the resources
and history of this section. Previous
to this time Mr. Jas. A. Bryan and Dr,
John S. Long were appointed on the
part of the State, and Mr. Wm. Dunn
and Capt. S. H. Gray on the part of the
oounty. The convention meets next
Thursday. We hope every one of the
gentlemen who have received appoint
ment will bs there. If they are New

lowing information in regard to the
wreck of the New York sail vessel,
Mollie J. Saunders, Capt. David. She
was bound north loaded with phosphate
rock from South Carolina, and while
off Charleston during the heavy north
west gale that prevailed last Monday,
she sprung a leak that grew worse and
finally got beyond control though the
pumps were worked incessantly.
Wednesday night the sinking con

A Cowardly Act.
It was found by examination yester
day that the trouble at tho electric light
works the night before was not caused
by anv defect in the pump as was at
first supposed, but was owing to the
fact that the motion pipe which leads
to the river had been tampered with
by some one. The globe valve had been
taken off, the pipe filled with rags and
the valve replaced . It is plain that the
act was done maliciously to annoy and
injure the company. The trick was
also fraught with peril, as tho scarcity
of water might havo caused an explo
sion of the boiler. It is to be hoped
that the miscreant will bo discovered
and severely punished. The peniten
tiary or any other penalty that tho law
provides or such conduct would be too
mild for him. A cowardly underhand
ed attaok like this, endangering the
lives and property of others, is the
worst speoies of deviltry, and if the
viie wretch is caught the sentiment of
the community ought not to permit
him to remain in our midst after the
law gets through with him. There is
noexousefor him even if he did not
realise what disastrous consequences
might have resulted. He knew that he
was wantonly and sneakmgly dama
ging others in a way that is not justifi
able under any oircumstances.

Connection of Southern Sieamship and
Railroad Lines.
A meeting of the officers of Southern
steamship and railroad lines was held
on the 8,h inst. in Baltimore at the
office) of the York River Steamship
Company on Light street, to settle dif
ferences and misunderstandings that
have arisen between these rival corpo
rations concerning trafflo arrangements
with Southern connections.
The conference lasted several hours,
and was participated in by Wm. H.
Stanford and W. L. Guillaudcau.of the
Old Dominion Steamship Company; F.
U. Emerson, of the Atlantio Coaet
Line: E. F. Warner, of the Wilmington
Steamship Company; W. K. King, of

Chadwick and S. L. Dill, of th At
lantic & North Carolina Railroad, and
J. W. MoCarrick, S. H. Gray and
Reuben Foster, of the Clyde line.
At a meeting of the same interests
a few weeks ago a schedule of rates
wad agreed upon.butthenaatterof inter
changing business between Eisfcrn and
Southern points, though discussed atthtt
time, remained unsettled. T.Sii has
boiii a vexed question between these
cumpctitjjj lints uad has caused several
;neetir.s to be held uf late. At the
last one, of which wo are speaking, a
siti-factory arrangement as matters now
stand was eetablished for th? present,
all the companies represented entering
into the agreoment and connecting with
the A. & N. C. R. R. at the rates estab
lished by the E. C. D. line. There is to
bu another meeting held in Baltimore
at an oarly date to arrange further de-
Uild as to permanent rates and di
visions.
A Komautic Marriazc at Greensboro
in tho McAdoo Hotel Parlor.
Particulars were received here yes
terday of tho marriage of Mr. Herbert
L. Noma at Greensboro, which turns
ut to havo been a delightfully roman
tio affair.
The young lady, whose name could
not bo obtained when the firat mention
of the affair was made yesterday morn
ing was Jiiss tmnia ((urns, of Pitts
boro, one of North Carolina's rarest and
most accomplished beauties.
Ihrt affair was quite romantia and i
euririio to all ponies interested exoep
the happy couple themselves. A few
days ago Mr. Norria went to Ptttsboro
prtteumably on business and also had
hit buggy and splendid pair of horses
went there. Un the morning of the mar
rnga ha called for Miss Burns in his
buggy, and they started oil together
for a drive. As the hours wore on and
they did not return, suspicions began
t3 be aroused, and finally when the
evening darkened into night the con
viction began to steal upon those who
were posted about the affair that Miss
Burns had deoided to becomo Mrs
Norris.
Sure enough the next news that was
hoard told the story, and it was to the
effeot that the young people had driven
to Siler, on the C. k . & Y. V. railroad
about fiteen miles distant, where they
took the 3 o'clock p.m. train, and ar
riving in Greensboro the same evening
were married in the parlor of the Mo
Adoo House. They took the night train
for New York city, and will spend some
time at the Grand Central Hotel.
Miss Burns is well known in Raleigh
and has many friends here. She is a
young lady of exceptional beauty and
vivacity, and charms every one with
whom she is thrown. Mr. Norris is
well known as one of the most solid
and prosperous young men of Wake
county. He is a prominent young at
torney and also operates extensive
farming interests in this oounty. Con
gratulations from all sides are showered
upon the happy pair. News and Ob
server. Tragedy in France.
Pakis, Deo. 11. A terrible tragedy
was enacted today at Clermont-Ferrand.
A wedding procession was on
its way from the church where the
ceremony had been performed, when
suddenly two shots were heard in quick
succession, and before the startled
guests could realize what had hap
pened both bride and bridegroom fell
lifeless to the ground. The assaesin
escaped undetected, but it is supposed
that the awiui act was committed by a
rival suitor of the bride-
J. F. Young Not Guilty.
