the claim is made that the elected Republican is
ineligible because he is Park Commissioner in
Hornellsville; in three others a plain attempt
will be made to falsify the returns by inducing
the boards of canvassers to throw out certain bal
lots because of alleged irregularities. This bold
game, we are confident, will not succeed. The
people will never submit to see such gross injus-
tice prevail

Among the minor incidents of the campaign
that deserve especial mention is the crushing de-
feat of Benjamin w Downing, who nominated
by the Democrats to he County Judge of Queens
County. The voters of that county gave Mr. Flower
a majority Of $500, and buried Downing under a
majority of nearly 5000. This is the third time
that it has been necessary to administer to Down
ing the punishment Of defeat at the polls since
he was removed from office by Governor Cleve-
land in 1882. 1t is scarcely supposabe that he
will have the impudence to reappear in the poll
tics of the county. or that the political machine
he has dominated in the face of repeated defeats
will longer submit TO his dictation. The victory
which the honest voters Of the county have won
will not, however, be complete until the Demo-
cratic machine has been rcorganized by the COM
plete extinction of Downing's influence. That
ought not to be hard 70 do after the voters
have spoken $50 overwhelmingly against him.

The surplus apple crop of New-England would
have a ready sale if it could be shipped to South
ern markets. A few years ago. Boston ship
owner tried the experiment of carrying a cargo Of
apples to Rio de Janeiro. The fruit was in per-
feet condition when the ship arrived, and he sold
it without difficulty at average rate of eleven
dollars a barrel. Every steamer sailing for
Southern countries ought to have large consign-
ments of apples, for they will command ready
sale in Che West Indies, Brazil Venezuela and the
West Coast.

WINDSOR. N. c., September 3.-Two negro
women had fight on one of the public
streets yesterday. The Justice who dis
posed of the case was very derelict IN his
duty. as he only made them pay his costs
eighty cents each. They fought over ten
minutes, and caused good deal of annoy
ance to the people by their loud, profane.
and obscene language.
The steamer BERTHE which has been to
Elizabeth City for repairs. returned this
morning.
MANY of the families who have been
spending the summer at Nsg's Head re-
turned home yesterday.
The Rev. T. p. Speight, who sprained his
ankle few weeks ago, is able to be out and
assist in the revival meetings throughout
the county.
A CONFIRMED JAIL-3IRD.
There are only three prisoners in tho
county jail, one OF whom boasts that hee
has been tenant of eighteen jalls and
station houses, and that he has occupied
several of them six times, and the only
offence that he ever was committed for
was fighting and being drunk and disor-
derly.
GOOD CROPS.
The farmers in this section are very well
satisfied with their crops. They have be-
gun to pull their fodder, and the corn
looks well and has heavy ears. The cot
ton has begun to open, but none has been
picked yet.
The Academy is being completed very
| fast, and when finished will be quite fine
and imposing building, with capacity OF
seating $50 students.
A revival meeting is now in progress at
one OF the negro churches in town. and
when it ends there will be many names
added TO its church-membership

MOZART ASSOCIATION.
Meeting of tho Board Of Governors
Change Contemplated.

The regular monthly meeting of the
Board of Governors of the Mozart Asso-
citation was held Thursday night, with Dr.
attendance was large and many matters
pertaining to the welfare of the organiza-
tion discussed.
The Academy was leased last spring to
Mr.. Reiss. or Petersburg. but on account
of bad health Mr.. Reiss gave 1t up, and
now the board expects to effect another
lease with first-class party who is corre-
spending about the matter. In the mean
time the following committee was ap-
pointed to manage the Academy: Messrs.
Potts, Pegram, and Archer. This commit
tee will doubtless retain Mr.. Berger as
agent for the Academy.
For several years past the Music. Com
mittee has deemed it best to employ on
nearly occasion only travelling. talent for
the nusicaLes. but now some OF the mem,
bers are in favor of returning to local
talent. Some think that the latter method
would be decidedly the best.
