Shortly after entering the Office

while, and remarking that he was sick at
the stomach the doctor gave him his wash
bowl and he threw up copiously, aud still
being sick, he went out of the oiiice.on to
the awning IN front for fresh air, and DUB
there he again vomited. While he was out,

Tho Row in Republican Ranks.

The account published in yesterday morn
ing's HERALD Of the secret meeting held in
this city Wednesday by nunber of the
leading Republicans of North Texas, in
conjunction with sprinkle of Independents,
fell like bomb-shell in the midst of the
clan, and created considerable excitement.
In that connection it was mentioned that
the Republicans here were divided among
themselves, and that an effort was being
made by some of the dissatisfied parties to
GUST Postmaster Whssen and U. S. Mar
shall Norton for the purpose of supply
ing berths for Col. John Stone, of
the firm of Stone d Heating, and Red
Williams and Jesse Grant. The reporter
was misinformed, and erred in stating that
the latter had gone to Washington City.
The purposes of the local parties having
been exploded, they came to the conclusion
that they had no time to while away, and
before noon yesterday one dozen petitions
addressed to President Arthur were being
vigorously circulated In the interest of Col.
Stone, asking that he be given the position
of postmaster of Dallas. This created quite
flutter, especially among the Republicans,
and in the afternoon two petitions asking
that Mayor Whissen, the present incum,,
bent. be retained, were carried around
which were signed by large number Of
Democrats, Greenbaclcers and Republicans,
among whom were bankers, and the princi-
pal merchants Of the city. The petitions
circulated in behalfof Colonel Stone, was
not signed to any great extent by the bu-
sirevs men who nre tired ofthc cut throat
business going on between the Norton
and Davis wings OF the party. This was the
expression especially of many Democrats
who are tired of the eternal chickering's of
those Republicans, whom they say are sim,
ply trying to root each other out OF position.
The petitions OF the two parties were mailed
last evening for Washington City. There
Is good deal of feeling in the matter on
both sides. II is ruinored that petition
asking that United States Marshal Nor
ton be removed, has been sent TO
Washington City. These are the facts
as cleaned by q HERALD reporter. The Re-
publicans arc 80 mysterious IN their move
ments that they are harder 10 solve than
the ffteen-ball puzzle game.

Wilmington Items.

One of the lighters belonging to
Gen. Banning, that was blown to
sea during the severe gale of the
18th inst, was recovered by Capt.
Samuel Sylvia while returning
from Clemente Island on the 25th
inst. Her cargo of about fifty tons
of coal was safe and dry. From
the position in which she was
found it would indicate that she
had made the entire circuit of Cat
alma Island and was bound toward
San Diego to take water.
On the morning of the 9th the
fisherman FORTUNATE had the mis-
fortune to lose both his horses by
drowning, under peculiar circum-
stances. He had driven down to
the wharf at an early hour to re-
ceive from the boat supply of fish
for the Los Angeles market and
while waiting, the wharf watch.
man came to see that sll Was right;
at sight of his lantern the horses
commenced backing and backed
themselves off the wharf into about
six feet of water and before proper
assistance could be rendered they
were drowned. The loss falls very
heavily upon FORTUNATE, as his
means are very limited and these
horses were almost indispensable
in the prosecution of his business.
The steamer Ferndale, Captain
Jordan, from San Francisco, ar
rived Saturday. 1t is understood
that she has two divers aboard who
are to endeaver to recover the steel
rails that went to the bottom of
the bay in the late storm.
General Banning has just COM
pleted u machine shop with the
necessary engines, lathes and other
appliances for the proper repairs
that are needed from time to time
upon the various machinery used
in his extensive business. The
shop is under the efficient man.
agement of Mr.. A. Young, who
has for long time been the Gen.
erals master mechanic.
Notwithstanding the immense
rainfall claimed by San Diego 1t is
an indisputable fact that her ship.
ping are to q considerable extent
supplied with fresh water by the
Wilmington Water Company. The
steam tug Favorite arrived here
yesterday and took In good sup
ply. 1t is also further remarked
that San Diego imports all her
fresh vegetables, fruits and wines
from this port and sends us back
by every steamer from four to six
tool chests with their disgusted
owners.

The uniformity of toilet which
has now become the fashion in
London and Paris owes its origin
to the Queen of Italy. At u
special bali got up for her on her
recent visit to Vienna, the young
beauties OF that graceful capital all
wore white in her honor, aud she
herself was drapsd entirely in
white satin, trimmed with silver
gauze, looped with gardsnias, md
set off by strings OF the seed pearl,
which is the latest fashionable re-
vival. The white Austrian uni
form, too, chimed in appropriate.
ly. So in remembrance Of the
compliment Queen Marguerite. at
the first ball ON her return, made
1t known that her fair guests were
to initiate the beauties of the Aus
trian capital. And so at the latest
balls in. London and Paris the
"uniform toilet" ia the rage, and
ladies' are expected to appear in
some stated tint.
