There are upwards of 4,000 acres on it and it was sold at $1 an acre. It was "the property of the State ami the money will be turned over to the school fund! Why it should be sold at all at this time we do not understand. It can hardly ever be worth less than its present value. The New York Sun has made a most disgraceful attack on Mr. Cleve land. We will not soil our columns with it. It is in full keeping with Mr. Dana's disgraceful course for Lyears past. Not one word that he says against G rover Cleveland but will return upon himself, for that gentleman stands as far above the plane uponl which the nasty, vulgar, traitoious Dana stands as the stars are above a dunghill. Only, Ave hope that some one of Mr. Cleveland's frieuds will put on his gloves and pull Dana's dirty nose. . Old Crump Sherman was wined and dined at the Union League Club in New York recently and the pious Col. Shepliard aspirates a fol lows: "May he live to have his hundredth birthday celebrated by a Union League Club constituted en tirely of straigtit Republicans." And herein lieth the milkinthecocoanut. Democrats and crooked Republi cans are ruled out. . Had Sherman been a Democrat he would not have been wined and dined by such Re publicans and Mr. Vanderbilt's ' son-in-law and Mr. Vanderbilt's brother-in-law might have missed an opportunity to flop his ears. The New York Mail mid Express rises to "congratulate Major Mc Kinley and the majority of the House Committee bf Ways and Means on the symmetrical tariff bill that has been .reported'' which re minds us of the compliment bestow- best beats the world.

A Pleasing Sense Of health and strength renewed aud of ease and comfort follows the use of Syrup of Figs, as it acts in har with A Sttrrowful Disaster. We have a melancholy circum stance to record. A Daily Review i subscriber who lives in the country was in town on Saturday, last and was dunned for a settlement of ac count. He swore that he did'nt have a cent then but remarked: Til be damned if I don't call at your office and pay you $5 before sunset to-day." As he did not call and pay the money the melancholy assump tion is that the alternative he in voked has indeed come to pass. We are sorry for it as he was a very clever fellow and will never be able to read the Rrvirw again for of course there is no male connection between Wilmington and the place of his new abode. At all events it isn't a star route. Our respectful sympathies are extended the be reaved family who indeed sorrow as tlioe without hope.

Thero are some people who will go to the Germania Band Concert on Wednesday night with their wives or sweethearts and who will find nice seats awaiting them in a good part of the auditorium, where they can see and hear everything that takes place, and there are others who with pretty little girls on their arms will sit way back and envy those in front, who are not any mote fortunate than their brothers in the rear, only a little less dila tory. It is well enough to under stand that the seats are being rapid ly disposed of. The concert will be a charming entertainment of this there can be no doubt. The prepa rations for its presentation are ac tive and the rehearsals are frequent. Mr. William Ortmann, the famous young violinist, will certainly take part, lie will brin with him from Charleston his own accompanist, Mr. A. Huguelet. An Important Morem en t Hr th ITnirer Itr Alaiuni. A very important movement is on foot to secure hearty and practical cooperation between the University and its alumni. The University is necessarily dependent mainly upon its alumni for friendship, counsel and criticism; and the alumni have shown themselves by no means re gardless of the interest and claims of their alma mater. But there has been hitherto no systematic, organ ized, practical working connection between the University and her graduates. There is a movement on foot to remedy this. Wednesday of Commencement Week has been set apart as alumni day, and besides the alumni banquet and. reunion there will be , a regular business meeting for the discussion of plans and methods ef increasing the pat ronage, enlarging the endowment, strengthing the spirit and exalting the work of the institution. This year a memorial address will be delivered by R. H. Battle, Esq., on Dr. Charles Phillips, and thfe alumni oration will be by Col. W. II. S. Burgwyn, of Henderson.. The best results should attend this movement; and in order to make it efficient it is earnestly de sired that every ulumnus of the University, who can possibly do so, attend the approaching commence ment.
