WILMINGTON, N. C. THURSDAY, MARCH
Governor Fowl.
In accordance with the announce
ment previously made through the
press, His Excellency, Governor
Fowle, accompanied by his staff,
members of his political and domes-
tic household and other notable
North Carolinians, arrived in the
city yesterday at 6 o'clock p. m. en
the Southern bound train on the
Wilmington & Weldon Railroad.
Thft distinguished visitors were Gov.
Fowle and his daughter, Miss Helen
W. Fowle; Miss Annie E. Satoer
waite, Miss Annie Walker, Cols. W
H. Williams and J. S. Cunningham,
aides-de-camp; S. F. Telfair, private
secretary; Gen. James J, Glenn,
Adjutant GeneraT;Col. F. H. Came
ron, Inspector General; Col. F. A.
Olds, Quartermaster General; Col.
Hubert Haywood, Surgeon General;
Capt. B. Cameron, Assistant Inspec
tor General; Capt. Wm. B. Grimes,
Assistant Quartermaster General,
and Capt. Reid Whitford, Assistant
Engineer. Col. T. W. Strange, of
the Governor's staff, and Col. W. C.
Jones, of the Second Regiment, N.
C. S. G., who went to Raleigh to
escort the Governor to Wiimingtom
were of the party, as were also Col.
W. L. DeRosset and Hon. O. P.
Meares, who met the distinguished
visitors at South Washington.
Expectation had been roused and
a determination on the part of the
ladies and gentlemen of the city to
show the distinguished visitors every
attention and honor was everywhere
apparent, and, although theeven
ing was not pleasant, as the time
drew near for the arrival of the
train, a large throng of ladies and
gentlemen assembled at Front street
depot to bid cordial welcomed) the
Governor and his party. The sev
eral committees appointed by our
citizens were there, and a committee
of ladies, consisting of Mrs. W. A.
Bryan and Misses Mary DeRosset,
Agnes Daniel, Jessie Kenan and
Addie Riddick, were in attendance
to bid a hearty welcome to the ladies
of the Governor's party. The Wil
mington Light Jnfantry,fifty strong,
in full uniform and under the com
mand of Capt. John H. Daniel, was
there and as the Governor and his
party emerged from the depot, the
company opened ranks and the
city's honored guests passed be
tween them, preceded by the Ger
mania Cornet Band playing
lThe Old North State." Being all
seated in carriages which had been
provided for the occasion the party
were escorted by the Wilmington
Light Infantry and Gerinania Cor
net Band to the Orton House. The
street was lined the entire distance
with people of both sexes and of all
ages and colors, who were anxious
to get a peep at North Carolina's
governor and who were also at tracted
by the fine appearance, sol
dierly bearing and perfect move
ments of our citizen soldiers.
The elegant and commodious par
lors of the Orton House presented
an unusual and even fascinating
appearance last night, where the
Governor with Miss Helen W. Fowle,
Miss Annie E. Satherwaite and Miss
Annie Walker, assisted by Miss
Annie Meares, Miss Jennie Vernon
and Miss Murchison, held a recep
tion. The Governor's staff were
present in full uniform, and the
throng of constantly moving and al
ways happy looking visitors, many
of them ladies in all the radiant
beauty, queenly dignity and inef
fable sweetness of North Carolina
womanhood, was a pleasing picture
to which the United States and State
flags, held by privates Hedrick and
Ulrich of the Light Infantry, formed
a fitting and appropriate back
ground. The reception lasted about
two hours when the Governor and
his party retired to their rooms to
seek needed rest.
This morning loomed nn gloomy
and rainy chough to dampen the
ardor ef almost any reasonable
pleasnre seeker and to confine with"
indoors all who were not compelled
by business necessities to wade
thrau.gh the mud and face the pelt
ing rain, yet, for all this, as th ar
rangements for the day had been
perfected, the Governor and party
felt obliged to visit Wrightsville.
It was intended that the train
which was to bear the distinguished
visitors to the Sojnd should leave
Princess street depot at 11 a. m, '
but on account of a necessary delay,
occasioned by. tb.e, non -arrival on
line pi some oi tnose who were ta
(I'M Vr
be of the party, it did not leave
until 11:35 a. in.
Accompanying the Governof to I
Wrightsville were his daughter, Miss
Helen W. Fowle, Miss Satterth
waite, Miss Vernon, of Brooklyn, N.
Y., Miss Annie Meares, Miss Agnes
Daniel, Gen. J. D. Glenn, Adjutaut

Bryan, F. H. Stedman and a Review
reporter,
A run of a few minutes brought
the party to Wrightsville, where
they disembarked and entered car
riages that were in readiness to
convey them to the proposed en
campment grounds and where they
soon arrived. By this time the rain
was falling rapidly and the wind
was blowing qluiost with the vio
lence of a gale from the Northeast
ward, so that the trip to the grounds
was anything but pleasant, yet they
all braved the elements, and even
the ladies of the party, with a
heroism worthy of emulation, nothfc
ing daunted by the rough pelting of
the rain nor the rude assaults of the
turbulent wind, dared the storm
with the determination of "woman's
will,11 and it really seemed as if the
lovely creatures bore the inconven
iences and vicissitudes attending
such a journey under such unpro1
pitious circumstances as well as
their gentlemen escorts.
There are two sites at Wrights
ville, each containing about sixty
acres, cither of which possesses all
th requirements for the encamp
ment grounds,, and one of which
will probably be selected. Both of
these sites are on the land of Messrs.
H. M, Bowden and Wm. Lark ins,
one being about three eighths ofa
mile and the other about three
fourths of a mile from Wrightsville
depot, in a Northeasterly direction.
They are desirable locations, pos
sessing every facilty and conven
ience necessary for encampment
purposes. The Governor and his
party went over and examined both
sites, and will probably determine
either to day or to morrow which of
the two will be selected. As quick
as this important matter is decided
the title will be made out and the
property will pass from its present
owners to the State of North Car
olina. It wasapparent that, whichever site
was selected, it could not be put in
order so as to make it available for
this season's encampment, but this
difficulty was promptly overcome by
the generous offer tendered by Mr.
E. S. Latimer, of the use of the
grounds occupied for the encamp
uient last year and owned jointly by
that gentleman and Mrs. H. R.
Latimer, so that there can be no
reason wny tne encampment tnis
year may not be held at Wrights
ville. Returning to the depqt, the party
again entered, the oars and were
conveyed to the Hammocks, where
an elegant and tempting lunch was
prepared for them at the Island
Beach Hotel, and to which they
undoubtedly did ample justice. Here
we were compelled to leave them
and hasten baok to the oity to pre
pare our observations of the inci
dents of the day for the press, in
order that our readers might have
te pleasure of perusing them this
eVening. The Governor and his
jarty returned to Wilmington this
evening, reaching here a few mn

The Storm.
To day has been monumentally
disagreeable in every particular.
Mud, rain and wind have seemed to
combine to make the dirtiest kind
of weather. It is probably thequi
noctial storm, a little in advance of
the season. The signal office here
reports the amount'of rainfall since
3 p. in, yesterday to be 1.40 inches.
The greatest velocity of. wind was at
about 2:30 p. m., when itiblew at
the rate of 26 miles J per (hour from
the Nartheast. We have "no report
of the amount of rainfall at South
port since yesterday, but the wind
there at one time to day blew at the
rate of 48 miles per hour and it has
been blowing nearly all day at an
average rate of 86 miles per hour.
We have heard of no damage as yet
of shipping at Southport or along
