Peter Begart and wife, of Downsillc, celebrated the seventy-fifth anniversary ot their marriage. There is only a few days' difference 'in their age, which is Coocresssiian Keagan, of Texas, fa vors fhurman for President a. Id Car- iisle for Speaker.

At St. Johnsbury, Vt., the weight of the snow damaged the apple trees and telegraph poles. 'Germany has reared a splendid nion ument ou the banks of the Rhine, over against Bingen, to commemorate the invasion and conquest of France. The JYeuch are raising a monument to com memorate the heroism of defeat. An experienced political doctor in Ohio advises a 20-inch porous piaster over the mouths of each of the leading Democratic bosses, but the Boston Post says nothing but chloride of lime would serve as an antidote for Republican orators. Mrs. Matilda Field, of Tennessee, is the youngest daughter of the famous Davy Crockett. She is sixty two years old.

In three years he got oyer $50,000, and on the interest he lived in idleness. Official returns iust issued show that last year the proceeds of the duty upon piaying cards m Frauce was 3,362,036 francs, or 21,414 francs more than dur ing 1881. In 1870 there were 39 manu facturers and 13.422 retailers of packs cf cards, whereas last year there wec 60 manufacturers and" 13,911 retailers. The Washington Star thinks it is evi dent that the confidence expressed by Mahone and his sub-bosses in Virgina as to the result of the election is all as sumed. While professing to feel secure they arc straining eyery nerve, and are resortiug to secret methods of a ques tionable character, to say the least, to avert defeat. The heat on the Colorado desert has beep greater this season than during any previous year for many years past, and the suffering ot those wlrose duties compel them to make the tedious trip frequently is almost overpowering. During two weeks the thermometer in the day time stuck persistently at -130 degrees. In 1870 the University at Oxford con ferred upon Tuigeneff the honorary de gree of doctor of civil law. The whole town was searched in vain for a univer sity cap large enough for him. He had finally to content himself with his everyday black silk .stove-pipe," The sight of such a bat over the doctor1' flaring red gown had never before been seen in Oxford. Devout Moslems confidently predict the end of the world on November 8th, the close of the Mohammedan thir teenth century.

A friend has favored us with a clip ping from a Butte City (Montana) paper which records the death of Mr. Thomas Laspeyrc. a native; and jfor many "year? a residcnU of .yilnjngton, whiclt occurred at Butte' City ' recently. Mr. Laspey re was a member of an old and honored family of-the Cape Fear..! He left Wilmington about 1852, , and when li4tle more than a youth, and em igrated to California. , He first located at Stockton, in San Joaquin j county, but afterwards removed to Butte City. He was elected to the Calilornia Lcgis ! lature for several successive terms, and served also in other positions of trusfc in San Joaquin county, and at! the time of his death was Attorney ; of Butte City. The jjaper pays him a high tribute as a man of sterling worth and as an official of unimpeachable integ rity! ' '-' J '. Legerdemain, j Prof. Zera Semon gave the third oj his series ot unique entertainments at the Opera House last night; and it was fully equal to any of its pjedecessors.

There was 4ji large auaience in attanaance, wno were delighted as well as astonished at the Prolessor's skill iii all that he un dertook to perform. He is certainly a proficient in his business and deserves well of the public. The fallowing held the lucky numbers that drew tha Jprin cipal prizes: 1 John J. Williams, Castle; between Sixth and Seventh streets, a silver watch. Willie Kordlander, Fourth and Han over streets, set ol French china. . " Julia Mulford. Sixth, between Nixon and Swann streets, chamber set. Wr Evans, barrel of flour. The entertainment will be repeated to-night with a change of programme, but the Professor will perform the "Limb from Limb" act, in which he decamt&tcs and dismembers his little daughter, for the last, time, so that all who would like to see that interesting and astonishing act may have , an op portunity.
