Magistrate's Row is as dull as au old hoe,' every constable, justice and attache in the vicinity that is not snoozing is basking in the balmy sunshine of this delightful Spring dasy, and knife in hand, whittling away for dear life on some of the timber from Mr, Blaine's . great State of Maine. Election ofOfficers The Philo mat bean Society of this city hld a meeting last evening fojr the elec tion ot officers, at ,the Ku if tits of Pythias Hall, with the following result: President, B. G Empie. Vice-President R. W. Hicks. Secretary and Treasurjer G.iH. Smith Editor G. W. Baily Death cf Michael Iloran. Alas ! poor "iorick, we knew him well. Michael Iloran, the faithful watchman on the New York steamship wharf, has taken his departure from this mundane sphere, yielded up the ghost and gone to render his accounts befor ) the in partial Judge of the Highest Tribunal. For long years Mike has served Capt am A. D. Cazaux, agent of the Sleamship Line, in the ca pacity of niht watchman, and well and faitbiul has been the service performed. Michael Uoran foi many years,, has by his strict, attention to duty, sober life andim plicit faith in the teachings of his chareb, set an example worthy of emulation to many of his brethren in this Gity , who like himself, claim their nativity in the Easts ern Hemisphere, among the picturesque scenrs of the "eauiiful Isle of the Sea." The Hibernian Association, of which the deceased was a member, will escort the re mains to their last resting-place from St. Thomas' Church, this afternoon, at 5 o'clock. French Cream C ake.

Broken open and Robbed Yesterday between the hours of twelve an I one the domicile of Mr. Barney Affnrrt-11, on Hew'ett ' Creek, on Middle Found, was broken open and robbed of a quantity of clothing. At the time of the th ft Mr. Murrell was out on the Sound, but &s be has sirae ciue to the thief it is hoped that the perpetrator iil soon be captured city Court. There was only one case before Hi Honor thfs morning. A policeman ar rested a woman and citizen of the Hollow o i the charge of disorderly conduct. In order to damage the policeman's evidence the woman ma le a very grave charge against the officer, who was exonorated trom the charge and the prosecutor or dered to pay the cost. Wailing Rifles. At a meeting of the Whitiug Rifles held at their Armory on Monday night, Mr. Joha W. Gordon was unanimously elec ted Captain of the Company. Captain Gordon has served the Rifles faithfully, and it is hope I that he will accept -the Captaincy which has been tendered him. The boys say that on the tenth of May they will muster out forty five uniformed members with Gordon at their head. -j. Personal Brother W. W. McDiarmid, of the Robesonian, made our sanctum pleasant by a visit this mcrning. His stay was brief, which we regret. He is workin in the interest of his paper, and we wish him success. Mr. E Conklin, of the Raleigh Obser ver, also made us a brief visit. He will be here on business for his paper for a day er two, and has promised us a mess of fish providin.' The Code. Thi.- morning the honor ot a colored youth was attacked by another colored youth of about the same size Jand age, and without waisting much ink or paper the ' dreaded challenge" was sent and the pugilists, with their seconds, who were armed with pieces of sponge, re paired across the river. A ring was made and the weapons, five fingers tight ly closed and thrown from the shoulder, were selected. The first round was de clared a foul, but on the second and third rounds the principals , discarded the use of rules and regulations. One walked off "chawing 'tothers ear'" and the other had hair enough in his fist to make a mattresF The duel lasted just three minutes and a half, and the principals shook hands and came back on this side of the Oape Fear. To all Whom it May Concern. Yesterday we learned through one of the many channels which the Review enjoys for obtaining the latest intelli gence that an interesting ceremony of a very impressive and serious nature w .s to be solemnized at the Academy of the la carnation on Fourth street, in the after noon at 4 o'clock. The ceremony was to consist of a young lady of this city being admitted as a novice into the habit of a Sister of Mercy of the Roman Cath olic Church. But yielding to the wishes of parties who made the request, we according to their expressed desire, refrained from making any publication of the fact. This morning we find that both of our city cotemporaries have interesting accounts of the ceremony. If this were the first instance in which the Review has been caught up in a similar manner we would not remark upon it, but as it is neither the first nor the second, nor even the third or fourth time that ws t ave through our own magnamity been prevented from presenting to our readers interesting items of local news, we have concluded that hereafter we shall discriminate ourselves upon matters that have become public, and the propriety of publishing the same, and act as in our judgment maj seem best in regard to such publications.

The sad intelligence was 1 received here to-day that Mrs. Dorah Gregory, daugh ter of the late R. F. Brown, of this city, and consort. of W. H. H. Gregory, Esq., of Charlotte, died at the residence of her husband in the abovenamed city at an early hour this morning. Mrs. Gregory's death was not altogether unexpected aud baa been feared for several days. Her dis ease, erysipelas of the brain, being of such a nature as not to leave much hops to her man' friends that her constitution could successfully combat it. The remains, we understand, will arrive here on a spe cial train by the Carolina Central Rail way to-rnorrow morning at 11 o'clock. The funeral will take pi ace riu St follies' Courch The Wilmington Light Infantry, oi which Mrs. Gregory was an houortHt member, will probably hold a meeting to-uisnttodeterniine upon escort ing the leu ains to their last resting pUca to-morrow. The following interesting sketch taken from Judge Cant well's address delivered on the 20th of May, two years ago will explain the connection of the deceased lady with the above named organization: L At the risk of being tedious I shall now ask your attention while I attempt to recall the brightest vision of our ante helium days. The blue-eyed Dora Brown, the Vivandiere of the Light In fantry, as she appeared at the head of the Company some years before the war, in her gay costume of green and gold; not yet entered her teens; graceful as an bouri; beaming with the vivacity of her age and family, a child of beauty and of song; the golden sunlight streaming in her hair and flashing from her eyes, she marched with the swinging gate and cadence of a veteran, but the grace of a sylph, lajllle du regiment still lives, but happier now, in the achievement of her destiny and the fulfillment of the datics of a more exalted station. How often on the tented fields of Vir ginia, floating above the white winged canvass, or toying in the breeze with the Stars and Bars through the silent watches of the starlit nigljcanwiih the soli tary 6HtmeT, Ir&ffr triaT sentinel's beat marked off the boundary lines of a Confed eracy ; on the prison floors ; in the bitter cold of Lake Erie; g.eaming on the un sheathed bayonets of hostile columns, mov ing to the fray; In long and cruel marches by the dark Potomac, over sloppy roads; on the rampart crowned with cannon; sweating with the bat tle smoke or sheeted in the flame a guileless little maiden's face has risen on the soldier's eyo 'like some exudation of the mist, glossing all the hues of glory and luring him on to those inspiring toils by which man masters man. As on the driving cloud the hining b w That gracious thi; g made up of tears and light Mid the wild rack aadruin thai stauds below, Stands smiling forth unmoved and ireshlj bright As though the spirit of all lovely flowers; In weaving each its wreath and dewy crown Or e'ar they sent to earth in vernal showers Had built a bridge to temp the angels down. TAXES ! TAXES 11 And the Cry is Still They Come. Twelve more delinquents marched up to the Captain 's office at the Treasury De partment in the City Hall this morning and planked down the spondulicks due for their license taxi To-morrow a like number and possibly more of those who are in arrears will be seen winding their way solitary and alone with head bowed down with grief and woe at being at last compelled to empty the contents of their purges into the city coffers, and yet peop'e who pay no taxes, neither license, real estate or poll, have for years ben controlling the municipal power iu this city and are to day responsible for the heavy load of in debtedness with which' the tax payers are now burdened But such is Repub licanism and the evil eff-cts of it where ever practiced in the South The Storm Siglal is fluttering from the pole of the signal fficj to-day. Bat never a bit does it look like a sttre here to day Consnnipti in Cured. An old physician, retired from prac tice, having had placed in his hands by an East India missionary the formula of a simple vegetable remedy, lor the speedy and permanent cure for consumption, bronchitis, catarrh, asthma, and all throat and lung affections, also a positive and radical cure for nervous debility aud all nervous complaints, after having tested its wonderful curative powe s in thoos and of cases, has felt it his duty to make f it known to his suffering fellows. Act uated by this motive, and a desire to re lieve human suffering, I will send, free of charge, to all who desire it, this recipe, witlrfull directions for preparing and using, in German, French, or English.

Spring- In this morning's Sun appeared a crm rrunication over the signature of Stnex, in which the writer attempts to alter the locality of the old legendar "Rock Spring" by placing it at the junction of Nutt and Harnett streets, entirely ignor ing its true and present locality, viz: thefoot of Chestnut street.JIt is very tru that there is a spring at his locality and it gushes out of a bed of rock, but it was never known by the name of the "Rock Spring" Hs paints in beautiful and glowing language the beauty of the fcenery near and surrounding this spring, then called "Pradiae apriog, with em bowered wod. trailing vines, wild Jas ?emine, honv su-kles, &c, wLere with his Amaryllis- by bi side be realizes all its delights.
