J Tiik Florida Times-Union by learning the returns from the different hotels throughout the State places the number of Northern visitors to the State for the winter just passed at 210,000. The hot wave has struck New York and has ciused much suffering and a ; number of deaths. The thermometer ! - /? c\r\ x _ -? r\/\ | ranging iroin w 10 1W. j. nerc wure six cases of sunstroke on Saturday. Senator Sherman is said lo have made the following remark: "The worst that can be said of President Cleveland is that he has not done as badly as was expected of a Democrat." Tm: National Cotton Convention has passed without a dissenting vote a res olution asking that the Government j suspend the coinage of silver dollars, j They seem to see the danger of continuing a compulsory coinage of silver. It is reported that the Adminstration has about concluded to appoint Mr. Jervey to be collector of customs at V Charleston. There ha^been so many different reports about as many differ-1 ent candidates that we are loath to give che last much credit. The North Carolina State Militia will spend their encampment season at AsheAille, N. C. It will continue from the 22nd to the 30th inst. Our State might have something of the kind, for besides a very pleasant vacation, it would increase an interest in State militia. The World's Exposition buildings in New Orleans were sold some days ago for $175,000. They were bought by Mr. Newman for the new exposition company. President McConnick, of the new company, says the purchase of the buildings insure tne re-opcmug ; of the Exposition next fall. Lars Guxderson, late Postmaster at Cumberland, Wis., who abscouded about three moDths ago, leaving a deficit of $5,000 in his money accounts, has been arrested in Manitoba and brought to this country. He voluntarily surrendered to Inspector Metcalf, who had beeu sent as the agent of the Gouernment for him. The Florida Constitutional Convention has refused to recognize the State University, the Agricultural College, j the East and West Florida Semina-1 rics, and Las refused to provide for the | establishment of Normal schools. It is a matter of surprise to us that such a progressive State should have such a record in State aid to education. A destructive fire occurred iu Washington city some days ago, destroying the Post building, owned by proprietor of the "Washington Post. In the building two other papers were published, the Republican and one other. The office of the Evening Star was tendered the unfortunate papers and the issues of the Republican and Post came out as usual on the follow- : ing morning. Such enterprise shows j the strength of the Star office. The President has made the following special civil service rule: "Appointments to the lou places in the pension office provided lo be filled by the Act of March 3, 1SS5, except so far as they may be filled by promotion or transfers, must be separately apportioned by the appointing power in as near conformity to the Second section of the Act of January 16,1SS-3, as the need of filling them promptly and the residence and qualifications of the applicants will permit." TKo co^tinn nhnve referred to. T>?0 A. itV OVVV*v? ??- " ? ? ? - ? - j vides that the appointments be made j with reference to the States and Territories allowing each one its proportionate share of the appointments. John Roach, the builder of the boat Dolphin, of which we have heard so much lately, has made an assignment for the benefit of his creditors. For some months Roach has been trying to pass off the Dolphin on the United States, bnt the Secretary of the Navy would not accept it, as it was - ^ J not such a vessel as was contracted ior > by the Government Attorney-General j Garland submitted an opinion to that effect. Roach states that his failure was caused by the action of the Secretary of the Navy, and the AttorneyGeneral with regard to his contract with the Government. Feahs were entertained souse days ago of a quarrel between England and Russia, but a cablegram on the 18th inst., states that in ministerial circles is nn fear entertained of an im- i mediate quarrel with Russia. Notwithstanding this, defensive preparations are continued in India, but suppose they are taking lime by the forelock, and preparing for war in time of peace. To us, all indications point to a war, sooner or later between these two great nations, as their difficulties seem to be of such a character that no satisfactory settlement can be made without ar. appeal to arms. The Newberry Herald and Itiercs has had something to say about the passage of a certaiu Act by the last Legislature in reference to the payment of fees to sheriffs who are compelled to summon wituesses for the 'iaavmaa ^atr onnokla fa UCiClIUC nuas IUOJ alb uuuuiv ?vr so themselves. Now we hate to show our ignorance of the passage of laws by the Legislature, bnt we are compelled to admit that if such a law was passed at the last session we are igno rant of it, and we have a copy of the acts before us. We must ask for some enlightenment on the subject, for we are inclined to the belief (to use a common expression; mac our cou? i temporary has kicked before it has been spurred. Judge Sxell, of the Police Court of "Washington City, in disposing of a case in his court which grew out of some threats made by members of a, 59^555?S^H55!^595!559^5^35959555B5555 Tailor's Lp>or Union against a non- j union ma:>; made the following strong j statement of the effect of labor unions. \ He said: ; t This is a land of freedom and for- j < eiarners come here to enjoy American ; j /? w ? mi ?a _ Lr^L A... I ireeaom. xney get a. nigner pncu iui their labor than they ever did before, j; as the labor statistics of other countries j 1 show. You come here from Italy,!; Germavn, Austria and every other; , country and as soon as you get here j ] you join a labor union and propose to i; coutrol the price of labor in this conn- j try. The people of this country are j I not going to stand this. The time | will soon come when persons in this | country will be able to employ laboreric as cheap as thev can and pay them 1 in proportion to their work without < the interference of labor unions. The j. greatest nuisances we have in this j country are these infernal unions and ; < the sooner we get rid of them the j' better. 1 A Washington correspondent speaking of the new Assistant PostmasterGeneral, says: "The Hon. A. E. Stevenson, who has been appointed first assistant postmaster-genera], vice Malcolm Hay, j resigned, is the right mail in the right | place, lie was born in Kentucky, but i at the age of sixteen years removed to I Bloomington, 111., where he studied law nnrtpp the cmidanee and direction I 1 of I he Hon. David Davis. He held i various State judicial offices, and was ] a candidate for Presidential elector on , the McClellan ticket in 18^4. In 1874 he was elected to Congress, serving s one term. He is a man of stalwert 1 health and physical proportions, under ( fifty years of age, with thorough busi- j noce KiohJfe <?nH onmrpnflv wpll nnali II VCC WWWilCj W??v? "t* 1"" w?" ?? - >J fled to preside over such an important branch of the postal service. Persons having business before the first assistant's office cannot help noticing the -< contrast between the incumbent and . his predecessor, Mr. Hay. Mr. Steven- 1 son can dispose of nearly twice as much i work in one day as the average official ] accomplishes in double that time. His i visitors al ways feel easy in his presence and receive cordial and civil treatment. His frank and cheery manners have ' already won him a host of friends." i Tt?v follnwinor is the reDort of the ! * o ? k financial situation taken from the New j York Financial Chronicle: Not the least disturbance to any branch of business has resulted from the disclosures respecting the needs of the Government for gold during the ] next six months. On the contrary } trade has been making very satisfactory Droarress during: the past two weeks. As evidence of it one need go no 1'ur- > ther than our table of exchanges on'fc ] previous page, the figures for the whole , country for last week and those received by "telegraph for the five days end* ing last night botb showing an in- ! crease over last year. And what is : very satisfactory is that for the dis- | iricts outside of New York the total compares very well with all previous years. Inquiry among merchants in < this city furnishes confirmation of these reports. We do not mean that there is any marvellous activity, but that business is growing better rather than worse, that it is much better thau . a year ago, and that although valves are low and buyers are conservative, | stocks of most goods are being reduced and prices are getting steadier. The , stoppage of cott n mills are almost ( daily anuouuced is no indication of a ( contrary condition. Stoppage was an- j ticipated, and it a prudential measure j due to last year's short crop of cotton j and the present splendid expectations ] mrtfni?inrr ni?An Cin^A tn I luaiuniig v/i ujl' ^ wiitvv w I bay the raw malarial with which to \ manufacture goods now would put up ( its price greatly, and the goods would- | have to be sold on the basis of much ( lower cotton when the next crop is . ( corning in freely. i * 'pl^i -f\ Some years ago a great many ct our I ( negroes coucluded that they were not t progressing as rapidly as they should, * aud determined to find new homes. j Liberia seemed to be an inviting field j and not a few ship loads were landed j in that country. There has uot been t very much heard of them since they ? left their Southern homes, and whether ] they find their new homes as inviting j as their old ones is a aouonui question, as the following account in the New i York World ci the return of a party t will show. They seem to have been < dissatisfied and glad to return to their ( old homes: e The hark Moravia, which arrived < from Liberia yesterday, had forty-two ] colored men on board, who return from that country after a residence of | some years. The Rev. L. G. Jordan, a native of South Carolina, was in ? charge of the party, and expressed ( himself as dissatisfied with the country , qo o fr?r nAvinanpnt. residence for c 1*0 ~ r the colored race. Amon^the returning: colonists were Prof. H. M. Brown, N. A. Brown, a student, and representatives of various trades and professions. On the passage "Willis F. Ford, aged 56 years, died of apoplexy and was buried at sea. On board the bark there was a collection of pets in the shape of forty parrots and four small moneys, besides many birds of gaudy plumage. The Liberian colony is repsented as being in a dissatisfied state niirl mani more are exDected to leave the promised land and return to this < country. < President Cleveland is thoroughly i in earnest in regard to civil service 1 reform. Having been deceived by i politicians in recommending different i men for various positions, he has hit 1 upon the wise and judicious plan of < guiding himself in snch appointments on information obtained from other than official sources. This is an emis I nently proper method and cannot but 1 result in <rood to the service of the i government. Politicians have their s workers fco please, which is not always acceptable to the people who do the voting and pay the taxes. It is the best that the people should choose their own servants and not be governed by sweet will of some clamorous Congressman. In this connection it is said that the governmental ax will not chop off as many heads as some enthusiasts may ' hope. Of course this will raise a howl 1 among these gentlemen, but it will t receive the universal approbation of < all right thinkiug men of all parties. On being remonstrated with, Secretary J Bayard replied to an ardent Congress- < man: "If a party is to administer the ' government only to put its followers j in office, popular government is a ] failure." m D i Bucklen's Arnica Salve. t The Best Salve in the world for t Cuts, Bruises, Sores, Ulcers, Salt , Rheum, Fever Sores, Tetter, Chapped * Hands, Chilblains, Corns, and all.Skin Eruptions, and positively cures Piles, or no pay required.

History seems to be in error in recording the account of this battle, md the letter of Senator Hampton is ~ ?i.i:~ 4iw,? Ua?A? ?iYUIl Iv illC [juuixu Uiat luiiui Uiav uv jiTen to tliosc to whom honor is due. Sot that he wished to rob others of ;heir glory but simply to give credit io those who acted so nobly their part in the battle-field twenty years ago. [t appears from this account that no jommand upon the field took a more ictivc part or done more to save the Jay than did the Hampton Legion of South Carolina. It was by their hard aghting against great odds that Jackjon was enabled to place his troops in i position which gained the battle. Although twenty years have passed iince the battle was fought but it is not on lata to ftontrihnte to historv facts tvhich heretofore have not been known j jv the public. Besides bring a valuable contribution to the history of the vnr between the States, the letter of Senator Hampton will be read with nterest by every one, and especially >y those who were upon the field with liin and endured the hardships of a >oldier. In closing his account he says :hat it is put on record in honor or his >ld, gallant and loved comrades of the Legion. Mahone'w Machine. The Republican State Convention of Virginia met in Richmond on the loth nst. The proceedings were very noisy, but Mahone's master hand soon aaa everything as quiet and calm as a summer day. Riduleberger raised a row among the faithful, and characterized various movements inspired by Mahone as some more of "your machine methods." ; Jlahone ana iCiauieberger Dnageu tne bloody chasm with a hug, and the conrention finally came to order amidst general embracing. In their platform they deprecate any interference with the present tariff, and insist that we should have a protective tariff for labor, capital, materiil and production. It denounces the present administration as seeking after spoils. Has the regulation stereotyped Bourbon Democracy, assassin, ballotstuffing plank, and charges the Democracy with various and sundry political method? of which Mahone himself is the chief expositor. It is a plain case >f the devil preaching. The Convict Question. The following is taken from the Neics and Courier: The question of the disposition of Lhe convicts comes up in another form. Why send the miuor offenders to the penitentiary? It is already overcrowded, and its condition grows worse jvery year. There is not sufficient room or employment for those already 1 117! : Ci.J. T A _ K ^ " ;nere. \v iieu uie ouiie uuuuuc ^isyum at Columbia became crowded, a remedy, which is expected to be effectual, was quickly found and c.pplied by ;he Legislature. A similar remedy :au be applied in the case of the peni;entiary. The counties should be' relUired to provide for their wn lessor :riminals, ae well as for their ownmbeciles and the harmlessly insane* Che expense of the maintenance of this ;iass 01 onenaers win teen oe ais;ributed in due proportion, and will 'all where it properly belongs. The ihances of cruel treatment, afso, it is evident, would be greatly lessened if lot avoided altogether, because of the jrisonors being under the attention of heir friends. There need never be my lack of suitable and profitable employment for them, so long as the pubic roads in the comities arc in their j, present cunuuiuu. We have always advocated just such i remedy for an overcrowded peniten;iary. Besides, we are informed that rriminals sent to the penitentiary for )ne year or a less time are an actual ;xpense to the State. The different sounties of the State can be benefitted )y keeping them at home. Such a )lan we believe is in operation in Mecklenburg county, N. C., and as far 1 1? is we Kiiuw wuiivo &ciuai*u;iur\ jliiuic jan be no better plan .adopted than to illow each county the right to control ts own convicts sentenced for one year >r less. Plenty of work can be found 'or them to do, and the penally will be jarried out as effectually by such a )lan as by sending thein to the peni*?ntiarv. and we hone to see such a one idopted. The Trouble at the Poor-House. Mr. J. S. Gnnnell, in a communication to The News and Herald, states :Oine things about the conduct of Jouiitv Commissioner Ileron, in his nauagernent of the county Poor-House, hat have a verv njrlv look. Mr. Gun aell is a responsible geutlcman writing n the style of one who knows whereof ie speaks, and his article is noticeably lispassionate. It is never right to pass judgment in idvauce of investigation, and Mr. tleron is entitled to the benefit of a all inquiry into the charges made igainst him as a public officer. It is stated that he undertook, in an arbitrary and unlawful manner, to take ;harge of the Poor-House, to the extent t-iof cif-lioi* rlic^hnrcrprl thp Irppnfr nr rave that official good ground to give jd his place. It is further charged ;hat Mr. Heron inflicted a hardship lpon the helpless inmates, in that, )wing to his conduct, they were deprived of their regular supply of food, rhesc are very grave charges, and Mr. Herou is bound to disprove them, or a admit that he has been guilty of official misconduct. But Mr. Heron is not alone responsible. No part of the management of )ur county affairs belongs to any one nember of the board of county commissioners. They may distribute the abor among themselves, iu any mauler not inconsistent with a due regard :o public duty. But they cannot in .his way diminish their responsibility is a body of officials, charged with important trusts. If anything improp ?r has been done in connection with he management of the Poor-House, all ;hree of the commissioners are at least norally responsible. This responsibility can be met in one way only?by * 1 1 t .i rigid investigation of the charges against Mr. Heron, and by the action which shall be demanded by the facts j of the case. If Mr. Heron has done no ; wrong, let him be promptly vindicated ?if otherwise, let him be condemned. I We have been informed that the {"misunderstanding" between Commis sioncr Heron and Mr. McGrady has been adjusted, and that the latter has resumed his duties at the Poor-House. Seeing that Mr. McGrady was never lawfully relieved of his post, he has : simply done what was plainly his duty, in retuKning to his place. But this return does not right the wrong which is distinctly charged against Mr. Heron in Mr. GunnelPs statement. That wrong was not against Mr. McGrady, but against the people of the county, of whom Mr. Heron is at once the ! trustee and the servant. His responsibility is to them, and we think we may safely say that they are disturbed by the statements which have been made concerning his official conduct, and that they will not be satisfied till he shall have explained that conduct to the satisfaction of some tribunal coin' petent to pass judgment, in some form, on the merits of the case. THE CHARLESTON COLLECT* KSHIP. A Reported Agreement to Agree Upon Mr. .Tirvtv-.Th? President Waititic. (From The News and Courier.) Washington*, D. C., July 15.?Senator II amp ton was always a welcome guest at the White House during Mr. Arthur's Administration, and probably received as many courtesies from the latter as any member of Congress, liepublican or Democrat. He seems to occupy a similar position in the estimation of the present Administration, and when he calls upon President Cleveland he is usually the recipient of many little attentions not bestowed upon his brother Senators. Seveial day ago he lunched with the President, anil while seated at the table, it is sfiid, the conversation drifted on to the Charleston colleetorship. The Presi-* dent made, numerous inquiries as to the qualifications of the numerous candidates, whereupon General Hampton remarked that he had resolved that he would not express an opinion on the subject until he had been invited to do so either by the President or Secretary Manning. The President replied that he apprepreciated this position, and added that if other members of Congress would make susreestions onlv when called upon to do so, the Executive would be less embarrassed and could place a higher value 011 Congressional recommendation. Said he, under the present system some members of Congress endorse several persons for one and the same position, and then complain if some one other than their favorite is selected. A few days after Gen. Hampton's visit to the White House the President called upon' the secretary of the treasury for a brief of all the papers filed in "the Charleston collectorship case. Last Wednesday the papers were sent to tV.e President, and it was said at treasury department 3-hat After looking over the list of applicants the President, Secretary Manning and Senator Hampton concluded that the appointment of Mr. Theodore D. Jervev would be most acceptable to the contending factions in Charleston. This information, coming from the source it did, led me to believe that the matter was practically decided, and that the formal announcement of Mr. | Jervey's appointment would be made ! in a day or two. THE GROWTH OF THE SOUTH. ?Semi:Aniinal Statement "Jlannfactureri' The Baltimore Manufacturers' Record publishes its semi-annual review of the South's industrial growth, giving the name, location and character of the business of all enterprises organized in that section during the first half of ISSo, showing that notwithstanding the general depression in business there has been great activity in the South in the organization of new industrial enterprises. There is also a wide diversity of new industries, in eluding iron mrnaces, loananes ana machine shops, steel works, cotton seed oil mills, cotton compresses, fruit canning factories, flour, saw, planing anil grist mills, factories for m'anulacturing carriages and wagons, agricultural implements, sashes, doors and blinds, shuttles, tobacco, ice, fertilizers, furniture, stoves, wire fences, soap, etc., glass works, gas works, etc., and marble and slate quarrying companies, and companies to mine coal, iron ore, jrold, silver, mica, natural gas, oil, etc. The total amount of capital, including the capital stock of corporate companies represented by new enterprises organized in the South during the last six months and in the enlargement of old plants and rebuilding of mills destroyed by fire, aggregated $36,534,000 divided among the fourteen Southern States as follows: Alabama$3,580,000, Arkansas ?375,000, Florida S479.000, Georgia $1,580,000, Kentucky $10,621,000, Louisiana $1,407,000, Maryland $4,633,000, Mississippi $416,000, North Carolina $5,135,000, South Carolina $427,000, Tennessee $1,802,000, Texas $1,319,000, Virginia $2,008,000, West Virginia $6,532,000. The outlook for business in the South k now vprv nromminer. Ilarelv. if *** *"v ** * o I ever, have the prospects for growing crops been more encouraging at the Sonth than at present. Every indication points to magnificent "corn and 1 cotton crops, the largest ever prodnc| ed, while the outlook for rice, sugar, fruits and vegetables is quite as gratifying. With abundant crops produced at low cost, with railroad, manufacturing and mineral interests steadily improving, the South bids fair to enter upon an era of great prosperity this ia.ii. ATTEMPT TO ROB A PAY CAB. The Train Stolen and the Paymaster Shot at?The Robbers Frightened Off. A desperate attempt to rob the Richmond and Danville pay car was made in Atlanta on Tuesday morning about four o'clock. The car reached Atlanta on Monday, and during that day the paymaster distributed $40,000." On Monday night the pay and supply cars were placed on the main line near the Markham House. A. S. Groser, the paymaster, and his cook occupied the car. Mr. Groser expected to be moved early this morning; About three o'clock he awoke and found the cars in mil motion?uiey were moving at least forty miles an hour. The rapid speed aroused his suspicions. He arose and opened the car door and put the brake on. The train was moving up a steep grade and the brake soon brought it to a standstill. Groserthen climbed upon the supply car and approached the engine. When he had made half the distance he observed a man climbing off the engine. "Where are you taking me i" demanded Groser. "To Belt Junction," was the answer "For what?" Groser asked. "You will find out soon enough; yon are the man we want," was the reply; and at the same instant the man began firing at Groser. The bullets whistled about his head. He made for his car and nlaeed his cook to watch one door. He then sprang from the car and ran for | f J help. He returned to bis car in half, au hour with help but found the men j gone. The safe contained about $30,-; 000 but had not been molested. Three j men were seen near the place where the train stopped and one man has I since been arrested. The work was j performed by railroad employes. Little Six xear-oia uegsin n r nunc. | Little six-year-old Bessie Lilienthal, who, orphaned by the death of her father, became the pet of her grandfather Abraham Leffler?is the holder of one-tenth of the $150,000 ticket in The Louisiana State Lottery. Last week her uncle Adolph bought three one-tenth tickets of The Louisiana State Lottery. Across of No. 51,10(5 he wrote Bessie's liame. Two-tenths ' of the $150,000 prize had been drawn by J Savannahiaus. Mr. J. T. Dwyer was soon | discovered to be one of the lucky winners; Bessie was another. ?

' I -AYER'S Hair Vigor restores, frith tha glos3 and freshness of j youth, faded or gray hair to a natural, rich j brown color, or deep black, as may he desired, j By its use light or red hair may be darkened, j thin hair thickened, and baldness often, ! fhnnoh not alwars cured. It checks falling of the hair, and stimulates a weak and sickly growth to vigor. It prevents and cures scurf and dandruff, and heals nearly every disease peculiar to the j scalp. As a Ladies' Hair Dressing, the Vigor is unequalled; it contains neither oil | nor dye, renders the hair soft, glossy, and J silken in appearance, and imparts a delicate, j agreeable, and lasting perfume. Mb. C. P. Bricher writes from Kirbj, O.. I July 3,1882: " Last fall my hair commenced j falling out, and in a short time I became I nearly bald. X ttsed part of a bottle of I Ayer's Hair Vigor, which stopped the fall- j ing of the hair, and started a new growth. I | have now a full head of bair growing vigorously, and am convinced that hut tor the ! use of your preparation I should hare been j entirely bald." J. "W. Bowtw, proprietor of the ifc Arthur j (Ohio) Enquirer, says : " AYEr's Hair. Vigoe i is a most excellent preparation tor uie nair. i I spealc of it from my own experience. Its j use promotes the growth of new hair, and makes it glossy and soft. The Vigor is also a sure cure for dandruff. Not within my j knowledge has the preparation ever failed , to give entire satisfaction." ; , . Mb. As-gus Fairbairjt, leader of tha j celebrated "Fairbairn Family" of Scottish j Vocalists, writes from Boston, Mass., Feb. 6, i 1S30: " Ever since my hair began to give sil- ! very evidence of the change which lleeting j time procnreth, I have used Ayer's Hair Vigor, and so have been able to maintain j an appearance of yonthfulness?a matter of j considerable consequence to ministers, ora- j tors, actors, and in fact every one who lives i in the eyes of the public." Mrs. O. A. Prescott, writing from 18 Elm Stj, Charlestorcn, Mass., April 14, 1882, says: 44 Two years ago about two-thirds of my hair came off. It thinned very rapidly, and I was fast growing bald. On using Ayer's Hair Vigor the falling stopped and a new growth commenced, and in about a month my head was completely covered with short hair. It Has continued to grow, ana is now as goou as before it fell. I regnlarly used but one bottle of the Vigob, but now use it occasionally as ! a dressing." "We have hundreds of similar testimonials 1 to the efficacy of Ayer's K a.tr Vigob. It j needs but a trial to convince the most akepti- ! calof its value. vrrzpAnTn BY Dr. J. C.
