The first act moves quietly, while the second ends with a powerful dramatic climax. 1 he interest ox the audience is sustained throughout, as the drama is replete with striking situations. Mr. Mayo, as Waldemar Nordeck. is very strong and is a reveiation to those who have only seen him as J)avy Crockett.

There are large quan tities of freight awaiting transportation both ways, and especially from up the river, where cotton and naval stores have been collected for shipment. Organization.

The Wilmington Light Infantry re turned to the city last night from their trip to Raleigh, where they went to be present at the opening of the State Ex. position and to take part in the compel tittve drill in which the several compa nies of the State Guard that were pres ent took part. The judges of the drill were Capt. E. M. Hayes, of the United States Army, A. C. Davis and Lieu tenant J .B. Bachelor, Jr., who awarded the first prize to the the Pasquotank Rifles, Co. I. Sec- ond Regiment, and the second prize to the Fayettevillc independent Light m- fantry, Co. A, Second Regiment. The judges spoke in the highest terms oi the excellence ot (the drill and sol- j . j . . n aiery aepanmeut ui u me com- panies and said that - any State in the Union might well be proud to count among its Guard such a private as Col. Cantwell, of the Wilmington Light Infantry, a veteran of the Mexican war, beering on his breast the medal of Churubus co." The committee regretted that they were not empowered to award .a prize to each and every company which took part in the drill, as they were all de serving on account of their efficiency and soldierly bearing. The reading ot the judge's report elicited great applause and especially ntmftnir., f;.ntel. The Infantry boys returned in good spirits, regretting only that they bad not been able to bring off one of .the prizes. The Presbyterian Synod conveucd at Winston on Wednesday last.
