The Truth of 1t.

The report having gained currency
that Col. T. II. Sutton had made an
effort to secure the office of United
States marshal for this district, THE
SENTINEL is authorized by Col. Sut-
ton to say that a petition was gotten
up by his friends about the first Of
February for the position, but that he
in no way sought the place and rath-
er discouraged the movement. He
told Messrs. Allison, of Iredell, and
Bell, of Clay, both of whom were cam
didates, that he did not desire the
Office, and authorized them to write
to Senators Vance and Ransom to
that effect. All this occurred before
his name was mentioned in connection
with the collectorship.

They will be some of the choicest of

representative Christian men in the
colleges or committees they will hail
from, and will bring an impetus and
vigor to all religious work they come
in contact with here.
The occasion itself promises to be of
| much interest to the good citizens of

wiu Not Hnrry Mattere.

WASHINGTON, March 17.-From its
action it is evident that the Senate
intends to take its time in the matter
of confirming appointments. A prom
ineRt Senator on the Democratic side
said this morning that the Senate
would not be in any great hurry to go
they would wait until the elective Off
ces of the Senate had been reorgan-
lied, If it is determined to do this
at once. As soon as this was done he
said the Senate would confirm every
nomination.

ver.l
There are some points that come in
mind and throw light on the situation
as to the western offices. The mar
shals term expires about the 1st of
April. and the district attorney S
next, in May. Senator Carlisle says
: he prefers to let'collectors alone until
near the end of the fiscal year, which
is June 30. 1t is learned on excellent
authority that there is no prospect of
settling the question of distribution
until the present pressure is over
The marshal will be the first man
appointed. One of the candidates
for prominent office does not think
geographical lines should inevitably
govern the distribution, though he
credits Senator Vance with entertain
ing that idea. This man says that if
Robbins is given a big consulate and
Allison the marshalship, not only
would one county have more than it's
share but one man would swap off one
good office he has held many years for
better. The same gentleman cred
its Senator Vance with great personal
liking for and inclination to Mr.
Allison.
The question: rs Ham Jones out
Of it ?" is not answered affirmatively
by some who discuss the matter.
They say he is one of the exceptions
to the eX-otficeholder rule.
GEN. cox REGARDED A SURE WINNER.
Gen. w. r. Cox is considered as
having the inside track for
the secretaryship of the Senate. Lit
tie, if any, doubt exists of his election
when the Senate is organized. Senator
Ransom has along been confident. He
thinks the caucus will be held on
Tuesday. The Senator has been so
busy with reorganization matters
that he has had no time to visit the
White House with his friends.

WINSTON TOBACCO MARKET.
The Tobacco Journals Review OF the
Week.

During the past week our receipts
have been moderately large. The
weather for the mos part has remain
ed favorable for marketing leaf and
sales have lasted nearly, or quite all
day, throughout the week, The bet
ter condition of the roads has made
the wagon trade larger, although the
receipts by rail have kept well up.
The quality was rather inferior as
rule, though some fine lots were
sold. The stock runs largely to the
common sorts and extra good lots are
scarce. The medium grades, from
which large amount of plug is made,
are fairly plentiful, though not abun-
dant.
During the week, under the press of
full sales, prices nave kept up quite
well and the market closed with a
strong feeling. A very large force of
buyers is now on the market and the
bidding is quite spirited on every
sale. Working stock of all kind goes
ut outside prices and no grade of leaf
is neglected.
Manufacturers are going to work
one by one and very soon every fac
tory here will be in full operation.
The outlook for trade continues fair
and collections are much better than
one year ago. Southern merchants
are buying with great deal Of CON
