' " Ifarbor Master's Report. Capt. Price, i Harbor 'Master - at this port, makes the following repprt for the month of August: 3 steamers, 7 schoon ers, aod 1 brig, ia total of 11 American vessels, with, a toi nage of 4.356, and C barques aodj2 brigs, a total of 8 foreign, vessels, with a fnriage of 2 628 arrived during the Inonth, The total arrivals during the month were 19 and the total toDuage 6,884. which is an unusually small showing The Telephone Au Ed son telephone has leen erected ar Flemington aod persons now converse between this city ac'd the Lake. We dp n v know whether it is to be & permanent thing or only to be used as long as the Wilmingtonians remain in Flemingten. By this same telephone a gentleman who was sick at Flemington last night, received a prescription from a physician in this city and a conversation was car ried on with all ease between Fleming- ton and Masorboro Sound City Court. i lhe casecontinued trom yesterday, in which the defendant pleaded previous conviction before a Magistrate, was again called this morning and after giving the witnesses in the casi a bearing the Mayor fm posed a fine of $10 upon the defen dant, j ' j A remarkable looking colored man was arraigned for being drunkahd down, but proved such an unexceptionable good character that the case was dismissed and the party released. i Yearly Review; The Charleston lew&- fc Courier pub lished on Monday a very interesting resume of the business ot that port during the past twelve 'months. It is a very extensive report and embraces every de partment of business enterprise. It seems to have been very carefully compiled and the exhibit it makes is a flattering one. We also find a lengthy report in the Charlotte Observer as to the operations in that prosperous little city during the past twelve months which we may refer to more at length hereafter. ' j Low Water in the Cape Fear. The steamer D. Murchisoni, which left Fayetteville at 8 o'clock yesterday morn. ing, did not reach here until 10 a. m. to day, being detained by low water on the shoals. She was due atj 2 o'clock this morning and was eight- hours behind time. Until there is a raise ia the river the steamers will bo compelled to rely upon the use of flats to lighter them over the shoals. There have been rains re ported on the Cape Fear above Fayette ville, but as yet they have made no per ceptibie increase in the depth of water. : 1 Theatrical Season. It' ' The indications for a fine theatrical I I ! season are good. So far the following en gagements have been made for the Opera House: Ford's Juvenile Opera Troupe, Ada Richmond, John A. Stevens, in River Mystery, Frank Frayne, W. J. Florence, in Mighty Dollar, Madame Rentz' Fe male Minstrels, Joe Jefferson, Milton No bles, Lawrence Barrett, Joseph Mnrphy, and Buffalo Bill. Ford's Troupe plays October 2nd, the next beiDg Ada Rich mond, October 20tb and 21st. Inquiries for the Opera House have been made and it is pleasing to know that we will be visiUd by a good class of troupes during the comiag season. 1 - ' . i Mr. L. M. Wiliiams, our efficient Clerk - - 1 i i of the Market, has so far recovered from his recent attack of sickness as to appear u on the streets. The storm signal disports itself to-day. It was ordered up last night, for the fir t time since it gave warning, two days iu advance.of the recent terriable storm. Mr. Solicitor Moore has taken the road, i. e., we mean., taken a trip.on the railroa and does not expect to stop short of Hickory, Cat twba county, whore he will rustic ite for a week and then retnrn home.

The work comprises about 200 pages and is compiled by Prof. A. R. ISedoux', the State Chem ist, by direction of the State Board ot Agriculture. lhe book shows the woik1 ings of thfe experiment station at Chapel i Hill, which is under the immediate supervision of Prof. Ledoux. It contains many valua ble formulas for fertilizers, indicating those jvpich are best for special crops This istha first annual report, and it is a source of pride to tbii.k that the entire woreis in all its completeness a North Carolina production, aud even the paper upon which it is printed was "manufac- tered within the confines of the State. oacreuuess j ui ataiea tommunica tlons. In a matter iuvolving the question whgther a postmaster is required under the law to testify in a judicial proceeding who rents a box in his office, who took the letters from it, etc,, tending to show what became of certain correspondence, the subject was referred to Assistant Attorney-General Freem&n, of the post of fice department, and he has advised' the postmaster-general that the postmaster should not be required to answer the in quiries. He says: 'The postmaster is an agent of the government, and there is no relation which the government sus tains towards the people of such high trust and of such peculiar and confiden tial a character as that which it sustains in the transmission of sealed communica tions. The name of the person ' address ed is written on the outside ot the letter for one purpose alone, that of enabling the postmaster to deliver it to j the proper person.! For any other purpose the post master is presumed to have uo knowl edge of the address. . To Ex-Confederates. ' A gallant soldier of the late Confeder ate army has just fallen a victim to the terrible 6conrge of yellow fever in the city of New Orleans. He has been smitten by the fell destroyer and now Bleeps in quiet tomb near the Crescent City. The i wife of his bosom was a victim to the same disease and preceded her husband only a few days on the long journey to the eter nal shore. But behind them both is ; t i family of ten helpless little children, now bereft ot father and mother, and left to the cold charities of the world tor support and sustenance. The brave soldier to whom we refer, as the reader, no doubt, already surmises isnone other than the gallant General Hood, who, we understand, died penniless, and without anything to be queath to his children, . except his un tarnished honor as a soldier, and his in tegrity of character as a man, both price less boons it is true, and a legacy which the orphan children will be prond to in herit from their lamented father. But 1 while this crippled and maimed soldier has left nothing but a good name and fair fame to his little ones, cannot the thous ands of surviving Conlederate soldiers in North Carolina contribute something as a testimonial of appreciation - of this de parted hero, to the support of the orphans? Let a subscription fund be started in WiL mington, and let every Confederate sol dier give not less than twenty-five or fifty, cents, and as much more as he pleases, and we trust, if a like example is followed in the other Southern States, there will soon be a sufficient fund raised to place : the little ones above and beyond want. General Hood gave his services to the cause of the South during the late war as a patriot; he shed his blood lreeiy ana willingly in her defence on several occa sions; he perilled his life and lost his limb and even then after that he took hie fife in his hand and again sought the dangers of the battle field for tbe cause he loved so well. Ai short time ao a dis tinguished citizen in this city voluntarily came forward and delivered a lecture in behalf of the widow and orphans of a gallant federal soldier, Lieut. Benner who lost his 1 fe while daring the danger? ot the epidemic, on the I Mississippi, last season, in carrying relief to the sick and suffering inhabitants of that section, who were victims to the terrible scwrge. This was praiseworthy, nq tioubt, but shall it be said that we ars. kes true to one of our own ffallant dead ? Who will be the first to move in this matter ? reply!
