Goldsboro, N. Jan. 20. tf ILUMIE? 01 PRICE TO ALLfcF and Mules CONGRESSm' The Messenger thinks that before it adjourns, the 49th Congress should take some action looking to a prolongation of the short or final term. As things are now very little general legislation of importance is possible.

The first term is consumed in long- worded debates and the oassaere of some small measures. The short ses- Ision is considered well spent if in the greatest hurry the resrular annual ap- DroDriation bills are cassed. There are several propositions be- fore the two houses.

THE STRIKE IN NEW YORK. What a serious matter a strike may become at any time is being shown in New York, where, by the process of extending the boycott from line to line, and from company to company, ii i i. i i i me wnoie sieamsmp Dusmess or a vast CUy naS Deen saem? paraiyzea, ana less ways tor the fault ot one or two corporations. It is an amazing and unendurable condition of things that the great ocean steamships, with days appointed ior sailing, ana with a thousand important interests depend ent upon their regular movements, should be kept tied up to the wharves, for want of fuel or for inability to obtain men to load them, in order to spite men who have no connection with them, and who would not suffer dollar or loss, perhaps, it the vessel; were sunk where they he. In this connection the Charleston News and Courier well says IT 1 1 i "it is aimcuit, or course, to put a term or limit to the right of peaceful combination, but such an affair as this, and dealing with common car- ners, there is a public aspect of the question, which should not be ignored.

The whole body of the people are more or less concerned in it, and action which goes to close np or cut off means of communication between Aff4- i I jl lUe same country is not in tne same category, and cannot be placed in the same catesrorv. with an ordi- tJ nary strike or boycott directed against individuals and affecting persons or single corporations only. ''Whatever regard we have for the interest of the working people, and whatever our desire to improve their condition may be shared with them, something is due the rights and interests of societv as well. When it comes to the point that a ferry boat cannot even get coal to make its trips across a narrow river, for the public convenience, without resorting to the fo, trick of buying coal by the bucketful, seems that the policy of compulsion has gone far enough, and too far. -i i -We have assuredly no sympathy with 'coal or any other set of men who oppress labor anvwhere.

But it is a business for the oppressed labor.rs, when they become oppressors innocent people in turn, and so con- duct themselves as to arouse any degree of sympathy for their grasping em- ployers, because these are put in the position or representing the interest or convenience of the public, and the workingmen, no matter how just their cause of complaint, appear in the light of conspirators against the pub lie welfare and disturbers of the pub lie peace. xne siriKers in jew iorK, as in so many other places before, have made a fatal mistake in striking at their employers over the shoulders of the people. The people catch most of the blows and resent them, naturally enough. So long as this plan is pur sued, it is vain for the striking work ingmen to expect the public sympathy and support, without which their ultimate objects cannot possibly be at tained." The statement of the vote. by which the nomination of J.

C. Matthews for Recorder of Deeds of the District I of Columbia was rejected in the Senate settles the question of the responsibility for his defeat. Only three Republicans voted for him in the whole Republican and he was defeated by Republican votes. Will Mr. Blaine, of Maine, please explain the conduct of his party friends?

Address THE MESSENGER PUBLISHING HOUSE, J. A. BONITZ, Proprietor, GOLDS BORO, N. I THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 3, 1S87. Tup President doesn't seem to have abandoned the Democratic party to anv verv erreat degree.

On last Thurs- .1 onnnintocs were coiiurmeu uv iuc uouaic, wum about one hundred postmasters, and everyone of them Democrats strong and respected in their localities. The Washington correspondent of the Statesville Landmark says: "Col. Wharton J. Green, the genial, courte ous gentleman who is deservedly popular with every one who knows him, will be another loss to our delegation. In his duty to his constituents he has been unfaltering.

He has worked unceasingly to promote their best interests. His successor is Maj. Mc- Clammy, a Democrat, who will have to get up early and work late and hard if he expects to fill the shoes of his predecessor." The British Parliament has met. Since it was prorogued Lord Randolph Churchill has resigned, and Mr. Goschen, who succeeded him as Chan- rrr' UCV feated bv a Gladstone man.

The Queen's address, in referring to the Irish question, is very firm in speaking of an efficient administration of the criminal law. It will require all the wisdom of English statesmen to settle the affairs of Ireland; and it looks as if 'there was nothing to look to at present but the unfortunate pol- icy of coercion. Secretary Lamar, in a communication to Congress, states that to carry out the provisions the Mexican Pension bill an additional appropriation of $4,603,104 will be required for making the first yearly payment, and an increase of 221 in the clerical force of the pension office, aggregating an annual addition to the pay-roll of the office of, $257,000. The communication also states that the probable number of surviving enlisted men of the various classes described in the Mexi bill is 34,748, and the number of widows, orphans, is 13,836. In diplomatic circles in Washington 4.1 ki.

T7A as io Liio iiiipuiiuiug uuoiuiuca uciwccu i France and Germany are not re- carded as beiner of a really serious na- Z7 ture. At the State Department the opinion prevails, leased upon advice from Ministers McLane and Pendle- ton, that, while Germany may have interrogated France as to cerain warlike preparations on her part, this is no more than European nations aire in the habit of doing continually under similar circumstances. The opinion also prevails at the French and German legations. The probability is, according to the best information ob- tainable by our State Department, that both these nations are watching each other closely, but without actual hostile A SOUTHERN paper calls attention to some instructive figures from the Department which supports Congressman Kelley's statement that the South is making more money than the North and West, and getting more for its products. This is shown in the exports from tho leading ports of the country, North and South.

With one 'exception, every Southern port is shipping more this year than last; whereas the reverse holds true of all towns beyond the line. For the last ten months of 1SS0, as compared with the same period of 1SS5, Baltimore's exports show an increase of New Orleans, Newport News, Savannah, and Norfolk, $800,000, the total increase for the nine leading Southern commercial cities being $23,000,000. Taking tho corresponding Northern cities, we find a loss in exports of $16,000,000. at New York, $3,800,000 at Philadelphia, $1,200,000, at Portland, and a small increase at Boston. The total loss at these towns is against an increase at the Southern ports of $23,000,000.

These figures are not so much the evidence of the growing commercial prosperity of the latter towns, as that the South is increasing its surplus products available for export. Production is increasing in all lines here, in agricultural, mineral and manufactured products; and there is consequently more to export. It is another piece of evidence of ythe story we have to tell every day of Southern development, i JULIUS A. BON TZ, I i a it of North Carolina Notes and. Per- sonals.

I Staff Correspondence of the Meisenjrer.l Washington, January 29.

The truth is, the President is both magnanimous and consistent. As to the Atlanta paper's characteri zation of the civil service law, that is a mere matter of taste. Some of us not onlv refuse to regard it as a hum- buer.

but we hurl back in scorn such epithets in the teeth of the impulsive men who use them. The law and the reform it brincrs have come to stay. Mark that. Amendments will come in ti a The River and Harbor bill passed the House Thursday morningr. The day previous its friends by a legisla- tive manoeuvre of great brilliancy, ascribed to a writ from Speaker Car lisle, erot rid of entangling amend ments and all dilatory tactics.

The bill passed as reported, without chanere. It appropriates $7,500,000. The Jndiciarv committee or tne House reported adversely on the prop osition to elect Senators by the peo ple of the States. The House this afternoon passed the Postoffice and the District Appropriation bill. The Agricultural bill was readv for consideration, and I left the House voting whether to ad: journ at 5 o'clock, or go on with that measure.

This is an industrious con gress. The nomination or rtecoraer Mat thews has been aerain rejected. The vote was 17 to 31. Thirteen Demo crats and four Republicans voted for confirmation. In the Senate Mr.

Hoar has offered a resolution declar- i i 1 CI i. iner that arter ine oenaie uas re fused its advice and consent to the appointment of any person to an office, it is contrary to the spirit and intent of the cdnstituition to designate to same person to perform the duties oi me same ouice xuiuicuiaici mcio- after." It is understood that this roc intowl in annlv fr I jmuiuuuu vyco iuivuv.v,u "M.j the Matthews case, and that its prin cipal object is to prevent, if possible, the re-appointment of Matthews, after the adjournment of Conerress. The Senate on Thursday passed the Dependent Relatives' Pension bill. Both Edmunds and JUahone made remarks yesterday in the Senate in favor of the repeal of internal taxes. The Senate discussed yesterday the Beck proposition forbidding Congress men from acting as attorneys for Government-aided railways.

The bill was postponed to-day. The House occupied lhursday and part ot yesterday in passing tne cable street railway bill for Washington. There was a big filibuster against it. Until late in the day the Mouse debated the pleuro-pneumonia bill. An amendment to include hog Cholera in the proposed investigation, offered by O'Hara, and to which he made a short speech, was adopted by a large majority.

The Senate took the whole day Sat urday nearly on the Yellowstone Park bill. Estimates for the payment of pen sions under the Mexican pension bill have been transmitted to the House by the Secretary of the Treasury. In letter rrom tne commissioner or Pensions accompanying the Secretary's communication, that officer says that the probable number of sur viving enlisted men of the classes de scribed in the bill is 34,748 and the probable number of widows 13,826 The amounts will oe required ror maK- iner the first annual payment is 663,104, which the Commissioner re- quests bo made immediately availa- ble. He also says that to dispose or the work created by the bill before June 30th next will require an additional clerical force of ne assistant chief of division, at fifteen section chiefs, $1,400 each; 150 clerks of class one, at $1,200 each; fifteen record clerks at $1,000 each; thirty-five clerks, at $1,000 each, and five messengers, making an aggregate increase in the force of 221 employes, and an addition to the pay-roll of $257,000. In the Senate the House bill to make the Agricultural Bureau an Executive Department has been reported favorably with the amendment pro posed by Mr.

Morgan to transfer the signal bureau to the Agricultural Department. It is the intention of the friends of the bill to press for its consideration without delay, and they feel confident that it will pass. The indications are that Mr. Morgan's proposition, to strip the signal service of its military features and make it a part of the Agricultural Department, will also receive favorable consideration. Commissioner Sparks has called the attention of the "clerks employes," of the land office to an order issued by Secretary Schurz April 14, 1SS0, which reads "To prevent further importunities for promotion in which a few of the employes have indulged, in spite of the well-known rules of the department, notice is given that applications for promotion made by the employes themselves or at their instigation will not only be absolutely fruitless but if persisted in, regardless of this order, may imperil their position in the office.

The Secretary and chiefs of bureaus and offices have ample means of ascertaining the title of employes to promotion without recourse to their own testimony or that persons unconnected with the department. Secretary Manning declines to say anything regarding the report that he to resign the Treasury portfolio order to accept the presidency of the new National bank to be organized in New York, as he does not care deny that he has or has not accepted a position that has not been formally tendered him.
