Ludd Johnson colored, was arraigned for wilful abandon ment, and judgment rendered against him. Before the sameJustice the same defend ant was anaigned for assault and battery, and committed in default of payment of the fines aud costs, amount mg 'to $6.30 n both cases. G. W. Murray, colored, was also brought up tor trial before Justice Hill up on the charge of assault and battery with a deadly weapon. The defendant was bound over in the sum of $200 for his appearance to-morrow, the 19. h inst., to answer to the above named char e. To Judge Bilks. There are two ways to judge silks Note the closeness and evenness of the rib, and hold it to the light to judge the better of this. That abows the texture. Then crush the material in the hand and re'ease it suddenly. Notice If it springs out quickly; that is tbe verve, and should leave no cieases behind. The quality of the silk is the softest in the world, and often wantiug in stiffness in appearance. The Bengal silk is the poorest, and de ficient in verve. And, again, there is a great deal of silk manu actured which is adulterated with a material called jute, which is interwoven in the fibre of tbe silk. This manufacture will be found very deficient in verve. It is a silk which, if wetted, stiffens almost like pa per. . 1 Daily 1 ! i ! 1 1 Next Excursion Prof. Agoatini has advertised another excursion for Friday next. The pagoda on the beach has been completed and since, the last excursion a plank walk has been made from the steamer s wharf to it. A pleasant time is promised every oue who participates in the exoursiou. Seriomaly Burned. Little Johnnie Steinken, aged about 10 years, son of Mr. Georgo Steinken, who resides on the corner of New Hanover and Second streets, while at the turpentine distillery of Messrs. Alderman & Bro at Point Peter, yesterday a.ternoon, ac cidentally fell into the rosin bin which was full of hot rosin at the time, and was fearfully burned. The rosin bad been drawn from the still some time and was partially cooled on tee surface, but it was sufficiently h t to scald him, and both legs, from his knees down , and feet, and both bands were so badly burned that the skin came of in large patches . He was conveyed home and medical atten dance at once summoned and every remedy that sceince could suggest was dm mistered to releive the sufferer. His condition this morning is as com fortable as could be expected and he bears his suffering with real fortitude. Pender county Items. This Superior Court now in ses sion at Burgaw, the county seat of Pender, will probably close its labors to-day. Judge Seymour is certainly one who believes in the dis patch of business, and be has a peculiarly business-like quality of accomplishing a large amount of work in the smallest possible space of time. His course on tbe bench has won the commendation of the entire bar. The cases thus far which which have been ttied are as follows: Moses Jordan, colored, larceny, guilty, 1 year in Penitentiary . Lewis Murphy, colored, larceny, con victed not yet sentenced. Wash. Pickett, colored, larceny, guil ty!, four months in county jad. Albert Jessup, colored, larceny, convic ted not yet sentenced. Richard Hooper, colored, assault and battery, guilty, $1 and costs, in default of which was sent to jail. Sam. Faison, colored, rape, continued. There were some other cases which will probably be disposed of this morning. Quite a number of the members of the Wilmington Bar are in attendance, and the counties of Sampson, Duplin and Onslow as well as tbe local bar of Pender were well and ably represented during the term. During the afternoon session yesterday Mr. John L. Holmes, of this city, was taken suddenly ill and returned to the hotel where medical assistance was promptly at hand. Mr. Holmes had complained during the morning of feeling unwell, and was advised to keep his room, but he went to the Court roo.n in the afternoon, where in a few moments, owing to his condition, his labors and the ex treme hsat he was completely prostrated, and was compelled to return to tbe hotel as above stated. His condition last night was comfortable, although he was very weak and exhausted. Wo saw quite a number of people from Onslow, who, now that New Inlet is closed, seem more than ever in earnest that the .Burgaw and Onslow Railroad shall be bulit. The school which has been taught for seyeral sessions at Burgaw by Mrs Lkd say, the accomplished daughter of "mine host" Williams, of the "Williams Hotel," closed its spring session on Wednesday the 11th inst , by an interesting enter tainment consisting of voeal . and instru mental mnsic, charades, dialogues, &c. Unfortunately wo were unable to be pres ent as we intended to have been, but we are pleased to note, from the report of those who were present, that it was a complete success aud refected much credit both upon teacher and pupils. A Presbyterian church was recently organized in tne village.and steps are be ing taken to have a church edifice erected at an early day. We are pleased to learn that the crops throughout the counties of Pender aud Onslow are growing rapidly. Everything thus far betokens an abundant bsrvos for tho year's labors. Messrs Westbroook & Bro, cf Reeky Point, have raised and sold, this year from less than ono sere of land, radishes and Irish potatoes to the amout of $176, and tbe ground is now ready for its third crop.

Tbe little steamer Fire Fly has been partially raised. It is feared that she has sustained greater injuries than was at first thought. The piling on which she caught punched a hole about 6 inches square through her bottom. The steamer was turned upside down and it is thought that the engine and boiler have shifted, their postion. Op n Air Concerts. Next Wednesday evening we are prom ised the first of the series to open air con certs by the Cornet Concert Club. The City Hall park is the place selected for the erection of a stand for the Club and in order to prevent an indiscriminated crowd filling the enclosure an admission fee ot ten cents will be charged. Seats will be proTided for the comfort of those in the enclosure. Arrival of the instruments for the City Fire Alarm. We are informed by Gen. M P. Tay lor, State Agent for the Bell Telephone Co., that the instruments and apparatus for the City Fire Alarm, arrived here iast night. He has a warded the contract foi poles and cross arms for the same to our townsman, Mr. R. B. Wood, and they will be delivered at once. We are re quested by Qen. Taylor to state that the telephones for the Merchant's Exchange will be here in a few days and in season to be put in connection with the Fire Alarm as soon as it is in operation. Belligerent Characters Awaiting Trial Hanlon, the colored man who was ar rested for n assault upon the colored janitor of the Bank of New Hanover yes terday afternoon, gave bail for his ap pearance before Mayor Fishblate to morrow morning at o'clock, at which time he will be called upon to rise and explain why he was so belligerent. Drake, a limping colored shoe maker, from the Paddy Hollow district, was ar rested yesterday afternoon for abusive language towards a health officer and for disorderly conduct generally, tie was locked up aud will remain lock ed until to-m( rrow morning at 9 o'clock, at which time he will be ush ered into the august presence of tbe Mayor and be required to tell why he acted thu$1y Mr. M. Cronly, assessor for Wilming ton township gives netice in an adver tisement elsewhere published in this afternoon's Review that five and only five more days are left in which to list taxes. We are glad to learn that Mr John L Holmes, who was taken quite sick at Burgaw yeBterday while attending Court there, was enabled to return home last night and is considered much better to day, though he is still confined to the bouse. To the Eitob or the Review: Sir: With yesterday there passed away a week of pleasure not soon to be forgotten by a party of Wilmington young folks who had taken it upon themselves to convert Wrightaville Sound into a "Brighton Beach " The party was made up of a great portion of the beauty and gallantry ot this city, and consequently nothing save a glorious time could have been expected. , - Through your columns they desire tot express their heart felt thanks to Capt. C. D Myers, whose beautiful place was tbe eceue of so much happiness to them all. Truly yours, Participant. A card.

Read the following from the Peters burg Index-Appeal and jud ,e for ymtr selves wbetnerl the iotrutout ao give you transmits the human voice dearly and disfi- ctly M-ATTHKW P. TaYI,- R iState Ajjent. The Triumph W the Tkleph Sk A Thoroouh Test, with Mot Satis fact 'BY Results The triumph of science has been beautifHlly iiiustrated in the succeas of the telephone, aud there can no longer be any doubt as to the - x c Hence and value of this invention in t e transmission of sounds eveu down to those of the most delicate nature In this city on Sunday the Bell telephone was submitted to a rest so thorough and with re&ul s so satisfactory as to pl?ce its merits beyond all cavil aud t clearly es tablish all that has been Claimed for it As the experiment was made in our pres ence, we can speak from personal obter V-ttion and knowledge. On Saturday last the Bell company placed a Blake transmitter in Grace (Epis copal)cliurcb, attaching it to one of he lec turus. and connecting it by wire with one of the Simple Bed hand telephones, in tht residence of a CFfzen near the lower end of Hiijb street. ue transmitter is inclosed in a little box of polished walnut, and oc cupies so small a space that its presence on the lecturn in trout of the minister is hardly noticed by the congregation. A sina1', insulated covered wiie runs dowu the side of the lecturn to the carpe tee floor, and thence along one the cbaucel steps to the wall, and out through a minute gimlet hole in the window lrame, where it is con nected with the main wire, which crosses the street and runs along from roof to rool of the houses toils tei minus the chamber of an invalid lady who, tor tela yars, by reason of sickness, has been debarred the blessings and privileges of the services el her church, aLd the comforts and instruc tioas ot Jber pisior. O ie can belter imag'ne than describe the joyous feelings which fehe experienced after so long a de privation, at beii g once more able to hear ana take pait in the services -even at so great a distance. And yet it was not with out some feais, as she took hold of the phone, that her pleasant antic ipatio:i& might not wholly be rea'ized. A few minutes before 11 o clock she placed the phone to her ear. The first sounds were the voices. of the one or two hundred children ini the Suuday School in the basement of tle tfUuuh aa they joined in singing the closiug hymn tbe air coml ing clear and distiuct. Then came over the wire the deep tones of the church bell, calling the people to vvurship. A tew moments pause and the organ came soft and clear, and then was heard the voice of the minister, Rev. Dr. Gibson, as hu read: "The Lord is in His holy Tamplo let all the earth keevp silence before him" clear and diatiuct as though the speaker and listener had been in the same room. Aud thence on to the c ose of the service, every thing that was spoken or bung in the church the prayers, the les sons, the Litany, the hymns, the sermou, the benediction all were heard with re markable distinctness and expression. Scarcely a word from the minister or a note from the Choir was lost. The lady had her prayer book and bible and hymnal before her and made the respon ses with the congregation. The success was complete. Dr. Gibson's text was taken from Psalm xxxii, 8: ' I will intruct thee aud teach thee in the way tho.u 'shalt go; 1 will guide thee with spine eye.'' During the delivery of the seitmon he made, brief reference to the little instrument before him, likening it As it carried his words away to a distant point, to the unseen telephone and transmitter that bear our every thought and word with unerring accuracy to the eye and ear of our Heav enly F kther. j l 'lhe Blake Trusmitter is a perfect in strument and wonderful in its capacity, it stransmits all sounds in their full vol ume, and with such clearness and distinct ness that the very expression of the voice can be distinguished. During the sing ing at tbe church on Sunday every voice in the choir was heard and the part sung by each was easily distinguishable. The same effect is iproduced no mat ter what the length of wire used, where one of these transmitters is attached. L is not a matter of surprise therefore, that the bell telephone is so rapidly growing into favor The manager here Mr. John J Campbell, yesterday received six new orders for it. The gentlemen in charge of the Bell telephone work iu this city, are active and atteutive to the discharge of their duties aud push. forward their labors with great euergy, promptness and rapidity, and do it! well.
