Ho man has ever served more acceptably than Judge Connor. He has all the qualities which go to make an ideal Judge. With profound knowledge of the law, energetic, painstaking, honest and honor- able, impartial and pure, he adorned the position and leaves a reputation as Judge that might be coveted by man. Mr. S. Battle, of Rocky Mount has been appointed by Governor Carr to fill the term of Judge Connor. Mr. Battle is a good lawyer and is directly de- how a Ebb that been distinguished in this He was Senator from his district in the last Legislature. There is no doubt but what he will make a Judge- is of country among the seven hills the eternal city. Another reason given why he is not a suitable personage for this important is that he gave fifty thousand dollars to the Democratic campaign fund last Fall. To make this a potent reason the knowing ones have to- assign a motive and affirm a bar gain between him and Mr. Cleve- land. They are not slow to do this and assert emphatically that he bought his position and in consequence had to have it, or Mr. Cleveland must fly the con- tract. W o dare assert that there is not a man living on the Amer- continent who believes that the President made any deal with Mr. in reference to any appointment in consequence of his liberal contribution to the campaign fund of last year. His record is squarely against before hand as Tammany will probably say if allowed to testify. The races between the English yacht, Valkyrie, and the American yacht Vigilant, has attracted much interest through out -this country and England- The race is for the champion ship and for the Queen's Cup, which has been held by this country a number of years. There will be five races and three of them must be won by the yacht that secures the prize The first trial was made last Thursday, but the breeze died out and the race was declared off. The next trial was made Monday, which went to the and won by the American yacht, which came minutes and seconds ahead. The second race occurred Monday and was also won by the Vigilant, the can yacht this time coming in minutes All the trials will be this week and the outlook is that the cup will continue to re- main in America. has given notice that when the Senate meets to- day he will ask it to sit in session until a vote is taken on the repeal bill that is now be- fore that body. It will be a mat- of physical endurance then to prevent voe, and unless the Senators are a little more inclined to remain in the Senate than they have been of late it will be only a short time before a vote is reach- ed. There are various as to the final result, some believing that this method of reaching a vote will be the death of the bill and others that it is the only way to end the protracted struggle. The Republicans in the body will not feel very much inclined to endure much privation to repeal a -aw which they know they will not held responsible fr whatever action the Senate may take- It is hoped that a compromise may be precipitated and in fact this is very strongly believed now, and this belief is much strengthened by a visit on Saturday from Mr. to the Senate and the conference held between him and prominent of Senate on both s of this question.

There have been hundreds of cases and many deaths, and the plague is still raging. The appeal has gone out for help and it should be given a liberal response. The recent storm and tidal wave along the tide-water sections of Alabama and Louisiana was of extreme severity, and attended great destruction both to lite and property. Between two thousand and three thousand lives were lost, while the damage to property is almost beyond estimation. Along the lowlands adjacent to the gulf and large rivers everything was swept away. I had an interview with Senator Ransom this morning in regard to the outcome of the -liver controversy, lie could not tell, he said, what the result would be. but that a compromise would be effected; that his object had been to the country sound and ample currency Hold, silver, and paper.

C-, Oct, 1893- President Cleveland's motive in having all his callers state the nature of their business to his private secretary before admitted to his office has been so grossly misrepresented that I present the facts, which So much of the President's time been occupied in listening to the appeals of Congressman and other for offices their friends that he has found it necessary to stay up the greater portion of nearly every night in order to perform his more important duties. order to a stop to this he de- to place the duty of all officials upon the members of his cabinet, he accepting their recommendation as final, and order to save his own time, as well as that of bis callers, those who call at the White House are required to state the nature of their business to private secretary If it be about an appointment the new rule is and they are referred to the member of the cabinet who has jurisdiction of the office wanted; if they are about public business they are at once taken to the President.

The son is On the day that Baby Esther was born this Congressman was approached by a loudmouthed individual who has made himself by his personal abuse of President because he was turned down by a well known restaurant, which was at the time with prominent public men, and the aforesaid loud-mouthed made a disrespectful re- mark about the baby whose birth had just been announced. The Tammany Congressman walked close up to the man and spat in his face. The coward sneaked off like the cur that he is, and the Congressman was asked why he did not knock him down. he re- marked scornfully. would not dirty my hands with such as Within an hour the incident was reported to the President, and since thou he is never too busy to see that Tammany Congress- man when he calls at the White House. The Tammany Congress- man has, however, asked for the incident, for, as he puts it. do not wish to be re- warded for having done what any good citizen would have insult to the family of the President. The House need not be idle after the vote is taken on the bill for the repeal of the Federal election laws, next week, even if the tardiness of the Senate in disposing of the silver question prevents the recess which Congressman would like to take, particularly those from states in which elections will be held this fall. The substitute for the Geary Chinese law has been favorably reported to the House from the Foreign Commit tee and can be taken up at any time, and the Judiciary Commit- tee has reported the Gates bank- bill to the House- It is probable that the Chinese bill will be given the preference.

It is of an entirely different species, and. as a matter of the shells of the called p aid-oyster are far more v. to those engage to W than the pea. Is. There are .- p i i Gulf . California, and some of the pearls have been taken from these waters. In one pearl, a black one, was sold for ten thousand and since that time many pearls have been taken from the beds in the California gulf val- at over seven thousand five dollars each. Cat such are very rare, and, as a rule, the pearls which arc brought up arc very little value. The shells, how- ever, are very valuable; most of them are shipped to Europe, where they are manufactured into buttons, and the hundreds of oilier articles for is used. Another fact concerning the pearl- oyster and the pearl itself is very little understood. I have seen in books of instruction both in this country and England Hie state- that formation of the pearl in the oyster-shell is caused by a disease of the and this statement is more or less generally believed, as is a I erroneous inference to be drawn from it that the referred to is the oyster. The mother-of pearl is nothing more than a series of layers of nacreous matter deposit- ed by the oyster upon the interior of the shell, and the pearl itself is a perfectly accidental formation. It is caused by a similar deposit of nacre around foreign object. This foreign substance may be a grain of sand, a parasite or some similar object; but most authorities agree that it is more usually an developed egg of oyster around which this natural deposit is thrown. The largest pearl ever meas- two inches long and weighs three ounces. This, is of eastern origin. The largest found in the Gulf of California did not exceed an inch and a quarter long and was somewhat larger the egg of a bluebird. Many of the Californian pearls are I lack and speckled.

The r Are Clear and the Mum They Quite It is a fact that mice can and often do sing. A writer in La Nature tells of two singing mice which he observed for several months. One mouse learned to canary, but the other was taught by its companion. A correspondent of For- est and Stream, writing from tells of his observation of a singing One Monday evening, as I sat read- by the fire, I heard what I at first thought was a boy passing along the street. imitating the war- of a a bird. Presently, however, I discovered that the noise was not in the street, but in the room where I was sitting, and fur- that it was mads by a mouse. The little fellow was evidently upon a foraging expedition, and was, if one might judge from his song, as light-hearted as the canary whom ha so perfectly imitated. I listened in wonder, and then proceeded to arouse my family, who had retired, telling them that I wanted them to hear what they had never heard, and what they might never have an opportunity of hear mg again. The little fellow seemed very tame, and for upward of an hour played around my feet, and at hide and seek under my chair, and then, probably thinking that it was time for to be in bed, vanished. I listened very attentively during the whole time to see if the singing might be attributable to any disease of an asthmatic nature, but the tones as clear as those of a bird, and, from the fact that the song was in- I came to the conclusion that sang because he wanted to, and not because he could not help it.

The engineer, thinking, of course, that the bridge had been burned or fallen in, applied his re- versed his engine, and shouted for his fireman to jump.

The first roan was a farmer, his occupation, God chosen, and the first wife was a farmer's wife. If the employment has become dis- tasteful to young people, so that it is difficult to keep the old homestead in the family, the fault lies in the conditions which the farmer imposes on himself and on his family. The great world of art, science and lit- should be open to the farm- sons and daughters and the courtesies and refinements of life shared by them as well as by the families of the men of affairs in the town; and until the farmer's life broadens to meet the requirements of the times he must not expect to detain at home the wide-awake boys and girls who are needed there.

They were much slower in taking to it than their English sifters, who have long ago adopted the tricycle as a machine. The Frenchwomen, however, have gone beyond them. They scorn the tricycle and take to the bicycle at once. Moreover, they usually wear some sort of a suitable gymnastic costume for riding, an innovation which the English and American women have not ventured to adopt to any great extent.
