Editor: As it is becoming quite the fashion to write for the Entekpkisk, and all the rest of Mt. Pleasant have tried their hand at it, it is my turn now. Al though I don't expect to find anything quite as interesting as did vour hist coi" respondent, still I would like to give him a little advice; my advice is this: That he quit farming and enter the newspancr business; it is a pity that talent such as his should beallowed to rust out on a farm. He certainly would create a sensation in the literary world, and a sensation of quite a dillerent kind, in his own mind, if lie did not learn to be a little less personal in his remarks, especially toward the ladies. He may call me a fox, goose, gosling, or a tool, it he pleases, but please leave the ladies out; and if he cannot be a gentle man, try and counterfeit one as near as possible. Wh tlon't wish him to stop writing alto gether, of course not; but a person with talent such as his ought to be able to find something interesting without indulgim in personalities. Of course it is very pleas ant to have a reporter at our "sociables ;" all will feel much more free and easy, more "sociable," to-know thateverv move is watched, and will be reported' to the paper. And now, my facetious friend, if you can't find any other way of showing vour wit and smartness, just keep on writing, we are all proud of you : but remember the fox is noted the world over as a slv creature, and if you wake him there's no telling when lie will be up to some of his tricks.

The bill for the repeal of the resump tion act passed the House by a some what larger majority than its friends have recently expected. All six of the Pacific coast representatives voted against it. They were likewise united in voting to adopt Ward's amendment, which proposed to exempt from corpor ations all debts due on the first of Jan uary, 1869, for labor The observer at Kitty Hawk reports at 11:35 a. m. to the chief signal oflice t jllows: The U. S. man-of-war steam er Huron struck two miles north of Xo. 7 station at 1:30 a. m. The foremast and maintopmast are gone, and the steamer is a total wreck. Assistance is needed immediately. The sea is break ing over her and several have already been washed ashore, drowned. The number on board is about 135. The Hu ron Bailed yesterday from Fortress Monroe to Havana, The Huron was built at Chester, Pa., and was first christianed the Alliance, but was after ward named the Huron. She was a third-rate screw, 541 tons, and when she went ashore had a crew of 119 men and 15 officers. She carried four guns and was schooner rigged. The stjry of those well acquaiuted with the co st is that the Huron got caught ia the height of the gale, and while trying to hold on head to the wind, her machinery gave way, her sails were useless aud she drifted ashore. The signal oflice observer at Kitty Hawk reports to the chief signal officer at 5:50 i m. as follows: Among those saved are E. T. Washburton, of Penn sylvania, Ciulet ; engineer Lucieu Young, of Kentucky; eusign K X. Dering; as sistant engineer Geo. 11. Ryan; Jno. M. Murphy, ship's cook; Cary X. Sanders, of Pennsylvania, past assistant pay master; Patrick Xamee, ordinary sea man. Assistance is wanted immediately. The men are only half clothed; the dead uncared for. Seven are now lying dead on the beach. Others who perished are still iu the breakers. Only four officers and thirty men saved. The captain per ished. Lieutenant Palmer's name is not not given as saved. The bodies of the drowned will be taken to Norfolk to-morri w. The Huron is completely under water and a total loss. New Yoiuc, Nov. 24. The JlcrahVs Washington special says: The Chinese was brielly discussed at to-day's cabinet meeting. After the reading of a dis patch from Ch nese companies of Cali fornia it was agreed that 2rompt means should be taken to prevent apprehended outbreaks against Chinese residonts of California. What these measures sha'l be, however, is a matter to be decided between the Secretary of State and the Attorney-General. Evanys is understood to have been requested tb make imme diate aud full examination of treaties existing between China and the United States and ascertain the exact staTus of Chinese residents of the United States thereunder, and also where offenders against these people are amenable to the national or local government. The Baltimore Gazelle to-day publish es the following ns being a true copy of a dispatch received from Senator Sharou by a Republican friend who had tele graphed ii in) thnt his presence here is necessary for political reasons: San 1- kancisco, Nov. 22. To the Hon. , Wa.ihiiintoii, I) C: I have 3.000 tons of silver bricks wait ing for the silver bill to pass, and am engineering a movement in Ophir stock. The Senate can go to hell. New Yokk. Xov. 2G. The Trihnties Washington special says a cypher dis patch "received in Washington to-day from Sharon announces he cannot and will not be in bis seat in the Senate bo fore the zuu of iieccmuer. lie says his business is in such a precarious condition he cannot leave, and if ho is importuned by many snato.xs as he has been by the one to whom he telegraph ed. he will resign. The most mtimafe friends of Sharon now in tho city say- he is one of the most earnest aud trust worthy Republicans, and that nothing but the most imperative calls of bust ness would keep him away from Wash ington at this crisis, lho governor of Nevada is Democratic, aud if Sharon resigns a Democrat would be appointed in his place. When he was elected to the Senate he supposed himself to be worth, clear and free from all debts, in the neighborhood of 820,000,000. The failure of the Bank of California, death of Ralston and heavy shrinkage in stocks have so crippled him that his financial salvation is by no means ye assured. He assumed most of the lia bilittes of Ralston, put the Rank o California on its feet, finished the Pal ace Hotel (which cost about 80,000,000) took Relmont, the princelv country residence of Ralston, and assumed the direction and monetary responsibility of the West Coast l urnitnre Company None of these ventures are remunera tive. Now the question with Sharon is. which of the three courses he shall . pursue. If he ieaves Califor nia he will sacrifice Ins immense inter eats at au important crisis in his affairs if he resigns, a Democrat will take his seat in the Senate; if he remains in San Francisco for a short time, he gives his party some trouble in prevent ing the Democracy from getting control gf the Senate. On Thursday night of last week,abont half p.st eleven, a fire broke out at Dallas Iv.lk county, in the manufac turing' department of T. B. Newman's tin and variety sx?re. The flames spread so rapidly that nothing vas saved ex cept some articles in the show window. The room adjoining was occupied by Miss Retta Neally, milliner.whose stock was entirely destroyed. The next build ing was occupied by M. M. Ellis, gen eral store. The larger portion of the stock was saved. The next building being of brick, was 6aved with but small damage, and the fire was effectu ally stopped. The losses are about as follows; T. B. Newman, $2,000; J.
