It is a busy scene now at the works

The Fire This Morning.
The alarm of lire this morning, at
4 o'clock, turned in from box 35, was
caused by the burning of the roof of a
one story frame dwelling on Eighth,
between Dock and Orange streets,
owned by Mr. J. H. Turner and
occupied by Mollie Williams, color
ed. The house was partially de
stroyed and the furniture almost
entirely so. There was no insurance
onthe house but the furniture was
insured with Messrs. Atkinson &
Manning, in the City of London, for
1250.
New to Many.
The plant known as "the veiled
nun," not "the nun's veil," is indi
genous to this part of North Caro
lina as well as to South America. It
grows wild in meadow lands near
Wilmington. This is news to many,
hut it is" a fact. The "ageratuiu
Mexicana," supposed to be native
only to Me"xieo, grows spontaneous
ly in this State. We have found the
blue growing wild on the banks of
the Roanoke river and the white
grows profusely in various localities
around this city. We have gathered
great masses of it in an afternoon's
rid.

The meeting at Brooklyn Baptist
Church last night was intensely in
teresting and much fervor was man
ifested. The services were conduct
ed by Rev. M. P. Matheney, who is
assisting the pastor, Rev. R. E.
Peele, in his labors. The church was
crowded to its utmost capacity with
eainest and attentive listeners and
several of those present came for
ward at the close of the exercises
and desired the xrayers of the con
gregation. The meeting to-night
will begin promptly at 8 o'clock, and
it is desired that all who can will
bring their "Gospel Hymns" with

The sale of reserved seats to the
Primrose & West minstrel show, to
take place at the Opera House on
Friday night, will be opened at

ing. It is hardly necessary to assure
our readers that an unnsually fine
entertainment may be expected on
this occasion. Wilmington has al
ways been partial to minstrel shows
and this organization, in all of their
visits to our city, have never yet
played to a poor house. " We all re
member the delightful performance
they gave here last Winter and we
are sure that we may expect some
thing equally good, if not better, on
this occasion.
