,.,,co! calico Hurrrah fer Calico
We we're shown on Tuesday, at the
,,,osale shoe store of Messrs. Geo
D French & Son, some Of the first of
.he finished products of the Whining
.on Cotton Mills. These consisted of
number of pieces of calico, the pref
.:.st and the best that femenine eyes
enc ers ever beheId or felt. These
Ids are the first of their character,
gbich have as yet, been made south of
po,,;more. And as they are the first
frn;ts of the first Wilmington cotton
will they are brought here to be dis
.o.e5 of to Wilmington ladies. The
a;aces contain forty-Gve and forty
eiobt wards and will be sold by the
niece only at ten cents, which will
aeord our Wilmir gton ladies the op-
nortunitv of wearing some of the first
lot of caIicoes ever manufactured Ill
the city, or in the State, or In 'ny
-tate sonth of Baltimore. We pre-
emma there are but few of them who
will not avail themselves of the oppor
tuuity of wearing Wilmington dress
There is only a case OF these goods
contained in this lot.
Aud then we expect to see them
scattered broadcast throughout North
Carolina, iu every city, town and ham
let, and at every cross-roat store, to-
we have no doubt, if this lot be II
sample of what is to follow, that the
wearers of calico will soon ascertain
that these goods are better than any
of Northern manufacture.

Ished several days ago the substance
of these recommendations, which we

THIS Improvement was attracting the
attention of the commercial centres of
the world, as was evidenced by tle
large number of foreign vessels that

GENERAL: In addition to the routine
report of operations for the Cape Fear
River for November, which will be
forwarded in day or two with others,
1t seems not out of place to call atten-
ton to several particulars concerning
the river and the effects of the work
done there by the United States.
The apron which Is to extend from
Federal Point to Zeke's Island will be
about 4, 900 feet long. For a deserip-
tion, see iDclosed copy of specldca-
tions. About one-fifth of it had been
completed al the end of November.

New Inlet by opening a chanoel else

Mr.. Hofecker to hesitate before, assuming
the responsibility of the position he aspires
to. We say naught against his ability, or

LET Us BEGIN AT HOME.

Meat, vegetables, -four, coffee, wages,
everything which enters into the cost OF
living is almost one half lower than ten
years ago. Sheriff Herbert received forty
five cents per day for the daily keep of
prisoners, vixen the cost of provisions were
twice as high as now, Sheriff Armstrong
we believe both Armstrong;, and Richard
son forty cents. Our present Sheriff, when
our people are sorely distressed with debt
and taxation, receives quite as much. If
forty-fve cents was paying price fer a
prisoners daily keep when Mr.. Herbert
was Sheriff, thirty cents would be a
full, fair, and ample compensation now
This is a matter of economy, of public
right, which will be pressed upon the levy
court, and rung in the ears of the people,
until it is fairly adjusted.

THESHORT HAIRS SWALLOW
TAILS.

The "swallow tails" and "short hairs'
of the Republicans Of this State are having
quite time of it; and it is a study to OBJ
serve the evidence of brotherly love, which
pops out like champagne from bottle Of
mumm, or verzenay. As apolitical critic,
with an eye TO the eternal fitness of things,
we recognize the Short hairs" as the true
opponents of their party. The swallow
tails,' by sympathetic affinity, with an
honest Democracy have become squinters
after justice, order, and honesty; and
hence have cast off the distinguishing
features, and rejected the cardinal doctrines
Of their party. How could they expect
recognition from President who ha. vio-
lated his oath Of Office, made nepotism
chronic, drove out of his cabinet every one
suspected ofjustice, and embraced with the
lust of a wanton, truculency, inebrity, and
dishonesty. Why not at once, gentlemen,
haul down your flag? Your are no
longer Of the party. The Republican is
right, and score one for our lusty friend
Vernon, who assumes the right of ex-com-
munieation, and threatens jenkins and his
'disorganizers" with "bell, book and
candle" Surely Vernon never could have
so dared, unless he was acting under or

WHO II TO BLAME ?

A host of ofstarving men, called upon the
Mayor of Newark, few days ago, and
asked for bread. In firm and respect
able manner their spokesman, told the tale
of dying wives and children;-dying for
want of food. We will have bread, said
the spokesman, in that stony way, which
betokens strong purpose.
For sixteen years great party has had
absolute control of the resources, Of the
greatest country under the sun. Harvests
unparalleled, have blessed the labors Of
the husbandman. The Atlantic is white
with ships, freighted with millions Of BUSH
els Of grain, from our Western fields, to
feed the citizens of Europe:-and yet our
own men, women, and children starve.
Who is to blame? Truly those who direct
and control the affairs of the Republic
This is question which every citizen
should ask himself, and see to it, that he
SO acts-politically, as to dismiss from its
stewardship, party whose rule produced
such woeful results. Ye good people, who
are anxious to see the hungry fed, can you
continue your support Of party, that has
brought this disgrace upon the land? BY
your votes call into the management, and
direction of public affairs, men who are
pledged to honesty and economy. All
other questions are immaterial, when COM
pared with the demand for snch govern
ment, as will render it impossible that
American citizens starve amidst plenty.
Gluttony and imtemperaace, at the
White House, starvation and death in
the homes Of the poor, is terrible antith-
esis in the first month of the second GEN.
tury of our national existence.

Breakin the Marriage Vows.

Mrs. Rouan, a young married woman re-
siding on Twelfth street, Jersey City, and
Martin Redmond, were arraigned in Justice
Raisch's court Monday, the former on a
charge of adultery, and the latter for forni-
cation. The warrant on which they were
arrested was issued on complaint of Mrs.
Rouan's husband. The Constable who made
the arrest found them together in shanty
near the tobacco warehouse. The woman
is twenty-three years old, while Redmond
is but twenty, and they both cried bitterly
when asraigned in the court to answer the
charges. They were very penitent, and
begged forgiveness, but Rouan was mex
orable, and the Justice committed the pris-
oners to the County Jail to await trial.

ExaIIsH SHAM.

There is NO nation in Europe, (which pre-
tends to 40 much sanctity rs England and
none that ever existed, save probably Car
thage, so entirely selfish. Her Christianity,
is subserviert to her calico and cutlery;
her national morality is regulated by her
antipathy or her avarice. In the disturbed
and seething period, which produced
the European reforms begun in 1850, she
plotted with the Carbonari, and counseled
with their enemies. While protesting
friendship for the Italian party Of move
ment, she was opening their letters, and
furnishing evidence to hang their leaders.
Thirty years ago, the infamous conduct of
Sir james Graham the English Foreign
Secretary in rifing the mail bags oil London,
that opening private letters, was called
"Grahamizing."
Exeter Hall, had again and again, rung
with denunciatory echoes against American
slavery. Mrs. Stowe the mouthpiece o.
anti-slavery thought was hugged by
Duchess, and feted BY a Queen. George
Thompson, a British emissaric travelled
throughout the entire North, to fan into
a war blast, the Northern hate of slavery.
At last the war came, and with Judas
like avarlce, England took thirty pieces
and betrayed the North. The Confederacy
the corner of which was human slavery,
became her ideal of heroic resistance, to
oppression. Her hypocracy, and want OF
principle stood naked before the world in
all the filth of its leprosy. A little time
passed away, and the pulpit and the press,
were full of the praises of the Mother
Country, our common blood, &C.,"
interspersed with laudations Of England
as the advanced of guard of Christian
civilization was favorite text for both ar
ticle and sermon. Well she is at her old
tricks again, which stamp her asa coward,
and bawd. In the, old lands famous for
their bloody resistance to the march Of the
dual curse ofSlavery, and Polasymy. un-
der the crescent of Mohamet, ,ChristianFree-
man, are again in arms against a barbarian
master. Fathers have drawn the sword to
protect their wives and daughters, from the
lust of Spahis, Pacha's and Bazouks. Civ
ilization with the blood sweat of agony
upon its brow, is encamped upon the tribu-
taries OF the Danube, and the passes of ;he
Balkan, with the triune power of the
sword, the cross, and justice. Austria has
refused passage across her territory, to
the barbarian Turk. Russia sends leaders
and sympathy. France, as appears by the
Partisan journals, is burning with enthusi-
asm, and from Lyons, Paris and Marseilles
nearly 1000 Of her sons have gone as their
fathers did in the crusading days to battle
for the cross. Germany is immoveable and
silent, because her masters, William, and
Bismark, have cautioned her against think
ing and have not yet permitted her to speak
alas that the German people, should be
enthralled at home.
Christianity, Morality, Civilization and
freedom have been weighed by D'Israeli
in the scales with cash, calico, polygamy
and slavery, and England has declared for
the latter.

Deans, Stanley included, have said Amen
