The election was held last Eht and re sulted in the election of Mr. E. M. Pavie, the present incumbent, as Chief and Mr. E, W. Small wood ta Seoretary and Treasurer. The office of Chief of the Fire De partment alternates from one company to the other and following the regular order, thia year w.is inn tirno for the office to be held by a member of the Atlantic Company, but the Atlantics waived the right, and air. T. A. Green, of that company, renominated Mr. Pavie, and said in cioioK so that this oourse was taken on account of his services during tho Past year. Mr, Pavie 's election was unanimcu. The New Berne CoiDPanf appreciates this kindly spirit ujaiifefited by the Atlantic Company, and entertain ss strong a friendly fttl'K towards them Silver at the From. Monday was a memorable day in the U. 8. Senate. Ey a movement on the part of the Democrats, assisted by sev eral Republican Senators, the infamous Force bill was laid aside, and the Silver bill took tbe precedence. As it now stands Ibe Silver bill i before the Sen ate as unfinished business, and the Force bill cannot be taken up until this is disposed of. It is therefore en easy matter for the friends of the Silver bill and the oppanents of the Force bill to discuss this question until tbe final ad journment of Congress on the 4th of March next Br this means the Silver bill may effectually destroy the in famous Force bill. To Senators Stew ard, Wolcott and Teller, the newly elected Senators from the new States, and to some other Republicans who assisted the Democrats in carrying out this scheme, the people of the South specially ere under obligations. Our townsman, Mr. William H Oliver, who for the past six or eight years has been a bold, fearless, never ceasing advocate of silver, and whose artio'es written on this subject have attracted attention all over the country, is greatly pleased at the result which hae just taken place in the Senate. Senator 0oar and his followers, who have endeavored to place on tbe Statute books of the coun try one of the most infamous bill) ever enaoted,are by this noovemcnt frustra ted and are terribly disgruntled- The Silver question s doubtless tbe only one on wbioh tbe Democrats oould get a sufficient Dumber of ttepubiioans to unite with them io tbus defeating this iniquitous measure. Card of Thank. Wa cordiallv thank the efficers and members of the Nw Berne Fire De- nartment for their efficient work in ex tinruishinK the fire in our dry kiln yes terday, and assure tberu of our hearty appreciation of their valuable service in saving our endangered property. Tne New Berne Lumber Company, Per J 8. BABNWHT, Superintendent, Children Cry for Pitcher's Castorl;. The Fire Yeaterday. About noon yesterday the dry kiln of the New B.-rne Lumber Company was discovered to be on fire. The kiln is of the kind known as the smoke kiln. Ths heat ia raised by fires in eight archer, four of which are ranged gn each side, opening outward. The fire in some way caught the weather boarding juit above the mouth of one of the arches, and was soon discovered by those around (he mill, who immediately gave tbe alarm and turned on a stream of water from a force pump in use by the mill, but the kiln being hot and the fire having worked its way between the weather-boarding and the ceiling was hard to manage, especially aa the kiln was filled with fifty or sixty thousand feet of lumber, but both our fire com panies were quickly on tbe spot and working manfully, and by two and a half hours of strenuous exertion proved themselves equal to the oocasion and mastered the fire before the building was consumed. Tbe loss is probably about seven or eight hundred dollars. There was partial insurance. Remark able as it may appear tbe lumber Btorsd in the kiln was not burned. It was damaged only by the thorough soaking from the water thrown. Another fine piece of work on the part of our fire department. SHIPPISU NEYv ARRIVED, Steamer Neuse, of the E. 0.

A detachment had been sent out from oamptomeeta wagon train with sup plies for tbe oamp, and when ten miles out the wagons were found besieged by a nana or one hundred Indians. See ing troops approaching, the redskins scattered in all directions, but imme diately returned to the attaok on find ing the email number of men in the detachment. A courier was sent back to camp for reinforcements, but in tbe meantime an incessant fire hai been kept up on both sides, resulting in the wounding of one soldier, and the killing and wounding of several Indians, the exaot number of wbioh could not be ascertained as the redskins carried their dying and wounded away. About three hours after tbe courier s departure troops were seen coming at full gallop to the rescue. As the troops rode up tbe Indians scattered and the troops pursued them, but abandoned the chase on account of darkness. The wagon train was esoorted to camp in safety. o - - A Valuab'e Preparation.
