MEssRs EDIToRs- Democratic
meeting here to-day, to organize for
convention and nominate township Off
GERS, was IN enthusiasm and harmony,
all that could be expected or desired.
1t was no ordinary don't care meeting,
but exhibited the most intense in
terest for the safety OF the vital is
sues involved III the approaching cleo
ton. Those present feel to the fullest
extent the Importance of every North
Carolinian arousing, at this critical
time, in behalf of his native State.
They say past elections have been i'm
pOrtant, but none lately, that involv-
ed our future liberty and prosperity
Rest assured then Messrs. Editors,
that when our gallant Senator visits
Pender to speak of the Convention,
with the elOquence that has hereto
fore electrified our national capitol
aud awakened national admiration and
State pride he will find
the people of Pender county-and
especially Of Lincoln township-arous-
ed us rarely before to the necessity of
action, action in the impending cam
paign. Past issues aud dead theories
were buried here to-day. Small
matters were overlooked. And all
every Democrat to a man-have fixed
their gaze upon the bright star of pro-
mise that Will soon dawn upon an op-
pressed State. The millennium is at
hand, the people here will greet and
assist its coming and you will find 1t

After request that other townships
III the county unite IN organizing, COM
petent chaLengers were appointed for
election day. Delegates to the Con
vention in Wilmington on the 22d

Mtssrs. Bruce Williams, A. II. Paddi-
son and ". w. Larkins. The follow

Township Clerk. W. E. Cowan for
Constable. L. z. Bell ; for School
Committee, John Scott, Grathan Will

This is, indeed, a strong ticket, and
from the standing of the candidates in
the township, we believe that they will
not be successful but will rally our
forces on election day.

REVIEW

COMMERCIAL EPITOME-Com
mer dullness characteristic of this pc
riod of the season, though the volume
of business is quite up to the usual
midsummer average.
There is not much doing along the
wharves, but in the general position
of the market for naval stores, and
cotton there is not much change.
The export movement shows an in
crease on last week. The shipments
for the week we're 153 bales cotton;
1882 casks of spirits 1O,515 barrels
of rosin, and $50 barrels tar against
81 bales cotton, 1,O53 casks spirits

tar and Is bbls crude turpentine for
last week.
Ocean fre1ghts continue quiet. There
was no increase CT tonnage during the
week. Rates of charter and freight
are unchanged.
The chief features Of the market and
the changes of prices of most of the
leading products and manufacture for
the week were as follows:
COTTON-Business has been mod
erately active and the tone of the
market shade frmer. Sales for the
week 120 bales at the quotations. Re
ceipts very light. Stock small, and
offerings mesgre. At the close the
market is quiet but steady at the fol-
lowing official quotations:

Middling. ..144
Good Middling las
ROSIN-In general way consider
able business has been accomplished
during the week, but buyers and sell
lers are still antagonistic as regards
prices. The advantage, however, has
been accorded to the former, but the
market has not declined materially.
The sales for the week foot up about

4 Newspaper Revelation.

- ASCSnV NASpolCu AIOW Ct. LOUIS saws.
4 lively fight was inaugurated to-day for
the possession OF the st. Louis Times news-
paper. At the commencement of the year
the concern had debt Of Sis, 900, and had
about reached the end OF its credit. The
directors. consisting of Charles A. Mou:z,
Esul McHenry and John Hodnett, unanl-
mously elected Stilson Hutchins general
manager and superintendent, with fall
power to act for the good of the paper
Hufchins made difference of $500 a week
in the running expenses of the paper, and
1t ls claimed that the Times was gradually
working its way back to a sound basis,
when Hutchins and his friends put in
gao 600 and succeeded in funding the debt
with bonds. Hutchins also bought 400
shares Of stock, which, with that Hodnett
held, constituted the majority. A combina-
tion OF considerable strength has recently
been formed TO get hold Of the paper. when
it became evident it must be saved from
bankruptcy and be made the State Demo.
cratic organ during the coming presidential
campaign. This combination included
Charles A. Moutz. the president Of the
company; CELSIUS Price. State Senator, and
con Of old General Sterling Price; State
Senator w. b. Thompson. of the law firm
OF Hill & Bowlan, a former Chicago jour.
nallst named Peck, and some others. To.
day Estii McHenry went into the con- blna-
tor, meeting OF the directors was held, a
resolution adopted ousting Hutchin., and
putting CELSIUS Price in the position. Hod-
nett, as secretary Of the company. has re-
fused to agree to the arrangement, and has
forbidden tho announcement Of any change
in the paper. Rutchins refuses to give up
his position, but under advice of his attor-
neys has adopted a passive policy. Colonel
Price has taken possession of the business
office. No wages have been paid for week
in any Of the departments. good deal of
bad feeling prevails. The annual meeting
Of the stockholders occurs in August. be.

bination can not possibly hold out.

The Latest Freak Of the Bavarfan King.

One Of the royal freaks of Louis of Ba
vara is to be carried out in August, if Prov.
idence and human ekill are equal to the un.
precedented task. The project is among
the widest OF his roman,ic ideas. namely,
TO commemorate the acting of their famous
passion-play by the villagers of Oberam.
mergau, by the erection of a colossal mar.
bic group. forty feet in height. upon the
summit Of Zugspitze, 10000 feet above the
sea. at spot overlooking the village and
the place where the passion play is per-
formed. The etatuafy itself is nearly
finished. The sculptor Hslbig has spent
upon It two years Of patient labor
The crucitied Christ occupies the cen.
ter OF the group, the Virgin Mary on the
right; on the left ST. Jahn, each resting on
socle ii ly inscribed. and all three on
common pedestal. on which are carved the
arms OF Bavaria. But now it is that the
difficulty begins. These marble forms can.
not be transported in sections, like bronzes,
but they have to be packed in immense
boxes. whose frame ewOrk is of beams, and
enormous carriages have been specially
built to convey them. There lie fifty miles
OF rude mountain roads between Munich
and Ooer.amm.rgau. and part of the Jour.

New York has sel'-moving steam fire en-
gine. They do excellent draft work on or
dlnary roads, but there has never been
trial of one on such extraordinary roads as
those the statues must pass, and the expert
ment is looked for with much interest. 1t

The Difference.

One Distinguishing difference between the
Northern and Southern sections of this
country is developed by comparison be.
tween Louisiana and New Hampshire. The
troubles regarding the organization Of the
Legislatures of these two States were some
what similar. In the former, however. the
people appealed 10 arms, apf bloodshed
would have followed if the United States
forces had not quelled the riotous feeling bv
their presence in New Orleans. In New
Hampshire the difficulty was referred to
Democratic court and finally received
partial adjustment at the hands of the
Legislature itself, and while the exciteme Mt
regarding i. ran high, the people did not
forsake their ordinary occupations. but re.
manned quietly at their BONES or places OF
business: Farming, merchandising and
every other branch ot business was pursued
as usual. and the cOntending politicians we're
alone in the questionable glory Of contes.
over the political spoils. In snort. the COM
parison demonstrates that the Southern
people are too much absorbed with politics
and too little devoted to business Nash.

Belief in the lmmO Ortaiify or Animals

/, would be idle to multiply instances of
the thorough humanity and genialitv of
Agassiz. Everybody who knew him can
tell hundreds of anecdotes illustrative of
his symDathy with all forms Of life. whether
in the jelly fish, the human child, the de-
veloping hoy or girl, the mature man or
woman. Still this conviction of the i'm
materiality and personality of mind was
something wonderful in SO austere
naturalist. We happened once to please
him by defining a jelly-tish as organized
water. "Now look at in through the mi
croscope." he said. "But, Agassiz, the play
of organization is SO wonderful that il
seems 20 me that nothing but mind can
account tor it," "You are right" was his
answer; "in some incomprehensible way.
God Almighty has created these beings.
and can not doubt their Immortality aDv
more than doubt of my own.' His fealty
to the rights of animals exceeded that of
any great naturalist who ever preceded
him. Incompetent as we are to give him
his due rank among the great naturalists of
the world. We think he excelled every
n .turaist who has gone before him in
striking at the soul and individuality Of all
animals below man. It is impossible to
convey in words the peculial feeling which
Agsssiz had on this matter. Doubtless this
large and genial genius is now satisfied.
