Mr.. York introduced a bill in thu

Republicans, seeing that every dollar of
public money voted away, and every
salary needlessly increased, would re-
dound to the success of their party,
willingly allowed all such schemes to
pass.

defeated while in full session, was
pressed to passage amid the Hub bub

TAKEN BACK.-The House of Rep.
r~esentatives attempted some investiga

based on a motion to expel Watson,
Republican negro from Edgecombe)
made by Hon. John Manning. Nessrs-
Newell, Watson, and others, with the
page, Whitehead We're examined under
oath. The result proved complex.
Some members who had set down Wat
son as guilty became satisfied, of his
innocence: while others who had
thought him innocent. became con,
WINGED of his guilt. Others doubted
if Newell told a straight tale. Others
laid the blame on solomon Geer, a
negro f~ire-tender. Finally, the pre-
sumption Of innocence was given Wat
son, and the presumption of guilt was
fixed on Geer; for the former was not
expelled, and the latter was on motion
discharged from any further attendance
on the House.

ACCUSRD.-Great stir was occasioned
on Monday by the arrest of Mr.. A. ".
Simpson, Republican member Of the
House of Representatives from Dare,
charged with stealing various coats, hats,
shirts, collars, handkerchiefs, umbrellas,
spoons, glasses, soap, towels, bed cas-
tors, etc, etc, from his fellow guests at
the National Hotel. These articles
have turned up missing from time to
time during the past two months. They
were discovered in Simpsons room,
inside of two v~alises, and a box which
he bought last week. The latter was a
suspicious circumstance, as he brought
no baggage with him requiring any
such extensive preparation for carrying
1t home. He admitted taking Capt.
f. r. Pages hat, and Col. looms UNI
brella; but said he was simply taking
care of them" Page roomed on the
ground floor, Simpson on the th'rl.
Simpsons defence conducted by Thos.
T. Devereux was to the effect that
Page and other Republicans ''put up a
job" upon him, in spite, because he
wouldn't vote for the resolution $50
persistently pushed by a certain infu
ence to prevent the lease of the New
bern Road to Col. II. r. Bridgers. 1t
will be remembered Governor Jarvis
withdrew the States proxy from the
stockholders meeting, saying he would
leave the question to the Legislature.
The mayor decided to let Simpson
go:-as Page and others were already
gone before the arrest, and as there
would likely be a special session when
the matter could be investigated.

How TO SPLIT THE SOLID SoUTH.-
If James A. Garfield wishes a second
term, he should ground his first .erm
in Reconciliation, and a steady shoulder
against Bloody Shirtism." Nothing
is palmer than hat Hayc. saved the
Republican party from total destruction.
Had Grantism prevailed for one more
term, the Democrats would to-day have
a 20 years lease of political supremacy.
There is much truth in the following
from the Charleston Courier
Yet without the President, whom
both Stalwarts and Moderates dislike,
where would be the Republican party
to-day? Eight gears Of Grant elected
TlIfen. -Four gears Of Hayes deteated
Hancock! That is the whole story.
THE South was at its best under
Hayes and at its worst under Grant. -
The Union, in general, has made vast
strides forward. There was no danger
of any very serious meddling with the
finances. Hard work and favorable
seasons did the rest. In truth, North
and South alike, as regards the Nation
al Government, needed, first and fore
most, to be let alone. The time had
come for a policy of hissezJaire, and
Mr.. Hayes was the man for the times.
The country had had too much govern
ment and, in the Executive Depart
ment, Mr.. Hayes was as near to no
government as could possibly be de
sired

PRoHIBITIoS.-So far as we can learn,
