The ordinary rise of the tide is 4 feet 6 inches, but Spring tides which occur on the change of the moon, rise 6 feet, making the depth of water a vessel can now calcu late upon at 15 to 16 feet according to the tides. euiiunial. On the 12th day of February, 1779 an act of the Legislature of North Caro Una was ratified making the counties of Warren and Frank ling from the then coun ty of Bute, In honor and commemora tion ot that event the people of Frank lin county have determined . to celebrate its centennial anniversary, and have se lected the 4th day of next July as the day upon which it will be celebrated. The citizens of the county are making en deavors to have the day enjoyed in such a manner as to be remembered by those who parcticipate- in the festivities The celebration will be held at Louiaburg, which is the county seat of Franklin county. We tender to the management our best wishes for the success of the en terprise, and also onr thanks for a cordial invitation to be present. Daily WILMINGTON, N. C WEDNESDAY, JUNE ''Among the Breaker.'' The Thalian Amauura of this city will give another of their popular and pleasing entertainments at the Tileston Upper R wm on Friday evening, the 13th inst Tne drama which they will present upon that occasion, ,is entitled "Amoug the Breakers," and like tbe others presented by them, it is both moral in character and effective in design We bespeak for our young friends a good house, as they de serve well of our citizens. Excursionists from efaetby A parly oi seventy-five or eighty or the business men of Shelby and viciuity, came to this city this morning on the Carolina Central train, and to-day they hae made an excursion on the Passport to tbe fortifi cations near the mouth ot the river. They will probably visit Smithville and other places of interest on the Cape Fear before tbey return. Quite a large party of Wil mintonians also went down this morning, giving our genial friend, Capt. Harper, a crowded boat load of passengers to look out for. The Temple of Israel. The society held its annual meeting for the election of officers for the ensuing year at the vestry last night. The following officers were elected: President S. Bear. Vice President A. Weill. Treasurer H. Brunhild. Secretary J. I. Macks. Trustees F. Rheinstein, M. M. Katz, S. H. Fishblate, S. Hanstein and Wm. Goodman. A. Weill, Esq., was elected as a dele gate to represent the congregation at the General Convention of the Union of American Hebrew Congregations, which is to be held in New York ih July next. Remember the New Law. It is well to remember that the act of the last Legislature prohibiting the car rying of concealed weapons went into ef fect on the 1st day ot June and it is made the duty of Sheriffs, Constables, City Offi cers and all other State Officers to enforce the same, and remember further, that razors carried about the person are con sidered concealed weapons in the eyes of the law. In regard to this last favorite weapon of some of the colored population of this city, we are happy to testify that the Mayor has already dealt rigorously with those who have been brought before him wi th those articles of warfare found upon them, and we feel assured that he will continue to do so in the fut ure. Remembering the Fallen Heroes. It cannot be otherwise than gratify tog to the friends and relatives of seme of our fallen heroes, to know that although the dust of their loved ones, who died in the cause of the South, is in many instances, mingling with its mother earth in a distant land, among strangers, that there are still some to be found among the living near that far-off spot, who remember with patriotic devotion the deeds of valor performed in their country's cause, by the now quiet sleepers in Greenwood and other cemete ries, at tbe North, while living, and al though the extract given below only men tions one instance, we know that there are other Southern hearts and hands scattered through the North wheat this season, offer tha same testimonials of appreciation to the departed worth and valor of our fallen braves as are mentioned by H. , the New York correspondent ef the Raleigh Ob server, in his letter of the 30th inst., from which we make the following extract : I have just returned from a very pleas ant trip, iu which I was joined by Mr. Cameron, Col. Peter Mallett and his little nephew, and Mrs. Thomas, of Wilmington, Our first object was Greenwood and Gen Whitingfs grave , which we found after a long searcr-, as usual. In addition to my own contributior , Mrs. Thomas had brought a beautiful boquet. We found tbe grave entirely concealed by most luxu riant shrubbery, very much grown during (he j past twelve months, and rich with thousands ol blossoms. The flower pot that I had placed there last year was where I left it, the plant killed by the winter. This time it was a luxuriant lilly of the valley that I planted there, and this will Stand the climate, and I am told will spread over the whole lot, and bloom annually, as it is on thepoint of doing now.

The Sound and Tnrtle Eggs. A party of young men from this city propose taking a moonlight ride to the Sound to night, and as the full moon in June is the time for turtle eggs to be found in abundance on the banks, we sup poso the feasting will be principally up on those delicious eggs, un less they should perchance be of the species known as the Mediterranean turtle which, if our mem ory serves us right.Goldsmith in his Ani mated Nature pronounces poison ous; i. e. the meat of the turtle, and we presume tha eggs would be the same. So look out young men that you don't get poisoned by suck ing eggs. Pointed Questions Ye local dropped in at the City Hall this "morning to give in his poll tax to M. Cronly, Esq., the tax lister, and he politely referred us to a respectable look ing young man seated at a desk with a pen stuck behind his ear, who asked us all sorts of impertinent questions, begin ning with 'how old are you?' Then de sired us to state the value ef oar real es tate as if we could tell how much the lit tle interest we might have in a narrow spjt out in Oakdale was worth. Then w anted to know the extent of our per sonal property, horses, buggies, car riages, hogs pigs, ducks, chickens, etc., and the extent of our possessions in jew elry, diamonds, gold double-case hunting watches, silver watches, &c., as if we were a jewelry merchant. Then the num ber of shares of bank stocks, bonds, cer tificates of other stock, railroad and such like; why t .e man talked like he was stark crazy, and then coolly asked us how much salary we got or words to that ef fect; well, we were getting sorter warm about that time, but be wound up with only one more question which is all that saved the gentle youth from our righteous wrath and just indignation, but which if he had propounded it sooner,or first of all he would have seen the folly of asking any more questions. To wit: 'what is your occupation?' and when we told him news paper reporter, the youthful ink slinger with a very knowing smile looked as though he meant to say, 'well I thought so.' Pass It Around. The following from a West Virginia paper should be passed around by all of the State exchanges. There is a slight mistake, however, in the date of the bat tle recorded below, tb e difference being one month and three days. The battle of Cedar Creek was fought on the 19th day of October, 1864. North Carolina has good cause to remember that eventful day tor she lost some of her best and bravest on that memorable occasion, and among the number slain was the gallant Major General Stephen Decatur Ramseur, who received his death wound while bravely attempting with his single devision to stay the tide of Sheridan's innumerable hosts. There was a battle fought on the 22d of September, 1864, bat it is known as F sher's Hill, and is two miles this side of the little town of Strasburg in the Shenandoah valley, while Cedar Creek is perhaps double the distance if not more the other side of Strasburg. But here is the article referred to: BELIC OF THE WAR. We have in our possession a small pocket Testament which was found upon the person of a dead Confederate soldier, killed at Cedar Creek at the great battle fought there on the 22J day of September, 1864. It was taken from th3 inside breast pocket of the dead man & coat by Mr. Sdward G. Eaglen, of Palatine, who was thten a, member of Company C, 14th Regiment of We-1 Virginia Infantry, and handed us last Monday. On one fly leaf of the Testament is the following tucrip tion: Alpha C ok, Company A, 21st Regi ment, N. C.t Hoke's Brigade, Early's Division. Mr. Eaglen informed us that the sol dier had been strnck by a bullet, wnich entered his body about an inch above where tbe book rested, and the blood as it flowed from the death wound, rao down and colored iu pages, and they yet plainly bear tbe dark stain of the life fluid that coursed through the reins of ' 'somebody darling." It may be that a mother, a sister, a wife or a sweetheart yet weeps for the unretarning brave, who sleeps where be fell on tbe battle field of Cedar Greek, 4, 1879. NO. 101 The Crops Our farmers in this aud neighboring counties were never more bus. than no cleaning out their crops ard stirring the ground that contains tbe y ung corn, cot ton, peanuts, rice and gaiden vegetables The late excessive rains and cool night" ere unfavorable upon the crops, but now, that the weather is warmer and more dry, the efforts to eradicate the grass and weeds are very active and vigorous We see diily in o t office some farmer from some surrounding county, and the general report is that the crops are now doing well and are promis ing. June is the month they all say for securing a good stand and for destroying the grass and stirring the land. A dry June seems to be the general hope and wish of our best farmers, and we trust they may all be gratified in having a dry and favorable June for farming opera tions. Fashion Notes. Lovely gauzes and grenadines are bro caded in natural hued flowers. The new polonaise, withj simulated eoats, have vests and full paniers. Striped bourette and checked summer silks are trimmed with plain satin. Lawn tennis, archery, croquet ..and gardening suits are conveniently short skirted. Linen and white vests are replacing those of the brocaded and heavy silken fabrics. . Black stockings embroidered ,'or clocked with purple white, are Hsed for mourn ing. Dotted or pi tin Brussels net may form mask veils, which are worn as deep as the chin. Lace dresses for children and misses are to be worn over slips of colored silk, sat" ia or cambric. The parasol novelties in Pekin satin and Polka dots, have exquisitely carved handles in coral and pearl. One of the ribbon novelties is in imita tion of mother-of-pearl, shaded and tinted like iridescent glass. In the new grenadines narrow Roman stripes illunrnate dark colors, like garnet, black, blue and green. Pique costumes for children may be trimmed with Smyrna and Russian laces, as well as Hamburg embroideries. A pretty galloon has a border of thumb fringe and a soft, thick centre, formed with silk tape curled in tiny rings. Cascade of lace, for fronts and sides of dresses may be adorned with loops and bows of ribbon and clusters of spring flowettes.
