Hard ware, WARE AND CROCKERY. E. SPRINGER & CO., importers aaa JqKXkts, It is" King Ice now. He rules the roost and strange to say his reiprn is more severe up North than it is in the South. There is already some talk of an ice famine this Summer. The failure of the Hudson River crop lias" seriously affected the sit uation. In the whole country the crop is hhort about six million tons and two-thirds of this shortness is in the New York section. There was about the usual crop harvested in Maine but it was all sold months ago and is now being held at fancy prices. Most of this, moreover, comes to the torrid Sonth and New York will get but little of it. Last year ice was sold in the big city to the heavy trade at 40 cents a hundred and to families at 50 cents. This year it is 70 cents to dealers and $ 1 to families. It wholesales at $10 to $12 a ton and there is every indica tion that these prices will be ad vanced next month. In 1870 ice was $16 a ton and it may reach these Qg ures this season. But it is not in the consumption of ice alone that the scarcity is felt. Fresh meats have already been ad vanced by dealers and woe is me ! there is. some very serious talk of putting up the price of beer to 10 cents a glass. Possibly this may not be done but if it isn't there will be more froth in a glass than was ever known before, even by the oldest inhabitant. , And yet it seems to us that the remedy is within reach. Men need no longer depend upon fickle nature for a supply of the crystal consoler. Art is at hand to supply all defi ciencies. An ice factory can e run up and put in operation in from 30 to GO days. And it will be done. By the first of July, long before the dog days, there will probably be a hun dred new factories in various parts of the country, each turning out an average of a hundred tons a day. No greater incentive to such enter prises can be furnished-than is now found in- the present condition of affairsl A wonderful place is that magni ficent city of. New York wonderful in her ways.and in every view one may take of her. Just how wonder ful is very forcibly told in the fol lowing, from the New Yorlc Herald: There is nothing in the world so fascinating, ponderous, eloquent, dry and altogether delightful as a table of statistics. Let us give you a few figures which stir the imagination, excite the gen eral pride and make our admiration for this great metropolis New York blaze like a cannel coal fire. We have about 1,700,000 inhabi tants,including the sachems of Tam many, the quarrelling county Dem ocrats and a small minority of Re publicans, all grumbling in chorus about our dirty streets. AVe owe a little matter oi $144,aui, 215.42. Weian pav the forty-two cents whenever called for, but the rest we will probably leave to our children with our blessing. It is a great advantage to have posterity to look to. We shall not have much else to leave it, so take a peculiar pleasure in according it the gracious privilege of paying our debts. By the time they begin to express tbeir gratitude in a few appropriate re marks we shall be where the wood" bine twineth. The interest on this sum, paid with an annual growl, is pretty nearly $7,000,000. The total amount which ha to be raised by taxation, and which is expended in keeping the municipal ity abreast with the Christian civi lization of the couutry, is about $24,000,000. This sum is handled by gentlemen who obtain their positions by political influence, but who would scorn or words to that elTect to use a single penny for party purposes or drop it unseen or unac counted for into the Wrong pocket. Ourtaxable wealth treads on the heels of $2,000,000,000, which shows that some. of bur citizens carry fi nancial umbrellas for a rainy day? The communist smacks his lips over these figures and thinks it about ; time to iuaxe a general divvy, butj the day has not yet been fixed. J The city has clear title to a good i bit of property, owns parks, piers, j fmblic buildings, which if we were, mrd up could be sold for more than! $300,000,000 under the hammer, and at private sale for a round hundred j millions more. We are therefore perfectly solvent J as a municipality, and can afford to ; indulge in all of the comforts and some of the luxuries of life. . i These figures show that New York is in the centre of creation, and that . all other cities, however boastful of! i ii tr ii CALfucutc, aio iucrci ruuut . - T- Fa'riuers, we can supply you with Peanut Sweeps and Diggers, Scraper and Coulter Points, Seven different size wings and two size points for the "Boy Clipper," the most im proved plow on the market.

The city authorities will grant each policeman a week's holiday this Summer. They can go wherever they please during that time and their pay will still go on. It is a good idea, and a generous one. The plan went into effect yesterday and policemen Robert Moore an:l George Gafford are off duty this week.

It began to fall at 3:45 o'clock this morning and from that hour until 3 o'clock this afternoon the rainfall was 1.16 inches. The 'storm seemed to be central about Charlotte yes terday for there was three inches of rainfall there for the 24 hours ending at 6 o'clock last evening. There has been too much water for the young crops. Only a Small Bow. There was a small sized row at the County House of Correction this morning. One of the prisoners be came obstreperous and declared he was going to town Superintendent King ordered him to his cell but he refused to go and was aided and abetted by two others. A messen ger was dispatched to the city for aid and a squad of police arid a dep uty sheriff were sent out" and cap tured all three and confined them in the cells in the stockade, heavily shackled. The Diocese of Hast Carolina. The Newbern Journal learns from a private source that the recent council of the Diocese of East Caro -lina at Greenville inaugurated some decided plans of activity. It was determined to employ a general mis sionary for the Diocese, the Bishop to select the proper person. Reso lutions favoring the establishment of a college in, the Diocese were passed, and a committee to. solicit funds for that purpose was appoint ed, Mr. J. B. Bonner, of Aurora, promptly subscribed $1,000 to the fund. The office of Chancellor was crea ted and Mr. Henry R. Bryan, of Newbern, was elected to that im portant position. For bracing bp the nerves, puri: fving the blood, and curing sick lieudache and dyspepsia, ; there is nothing equal to Hoods Sarsaparilla. All About Ice. What does it cost to make a ton of ice? is a question which has been propounded to us fifty times (more or lessr to-day. Why we should have so suddenly become an author ity in the matter of ice is difficult to understand. But unquestionably much interest has beeu manifested in the statement made by us yester day to the effect that a gentleman in this city had gone North, with plen ty of nicJney in his pocket, to pur chase an ice plant. But as to the cost of the manufac ture of a ton of ice: We don't know anything about it but suppose that it will depend upon a hundred con tingencies and as to whether only one ton, or many tons, is to be made. We have heard that ice is sold some times as low as $3 a ton for natural ice and $4 a'ton for the manufactur ed article and therefore the cost, if a large quantity is made, must come somewhere within these figures. amocratl Primaries.

BELLAMY, JR., Cll'm. B'Nal P.erith. This organization, wnicii sprung into existence more than half a cen tury ago, dates its origin from the fact of the rejection of an Israelite by a literary society in New York on purely sectarian grounds. From that time it has been established in every State in this country and has extended its benign influences across the Atlantic, and bodies of the rite have been! established in Palestine, Egypt, Franct and Germany. The great aim of the order is to educate the Jewish mind, elevate the Jewish character, and to battle against the persecution and oppression of the Jewish race. Its charitable purposes are shown in the endownment law, the erection of structures for the orphan and the aged and infirm, and the formation of literaryassociations for mental and moral culture. The highest body of the order will meet in Richmond on the 1st prox., and an address of welcome to the delegates will be pronounced by the Governor of Virginia, at the State House, on the 2d of June. Matters of great importance will be discuss ed by the members, and as the meetings are held only quinquen nially, the business to be transacted will occupy one week. Mr. J. I. Macks will attend as the delegate from the lodge lu this city. Weakness. How many suffer from weakness!

It will improve both "appetite and di gestion. It is an excellent remedy to use while convalescing. It aids a natural and rapid recovery. In cases where an invalid has remained long in bed and bed sores or other ulcers breakout, this remedy will afford quick relief. W. M. Cheshire, Atlanta, Ga., writes: 4I had a long spell of typhoid fever, which at last seemed to settle in my right leg, which swelled up enormously. An ulcer also appeared which discharged a cupful of matter a day. I then gave B B B a trial and it cured me." - Refreshing and. invigorating; Delicious Soda Water as drawn from Munds Brothers1 magnificent .new soda fountain at a temperature of 34.

The complete novel in this num ber is "The Woman's Version,' a touching story of a Virginia girl, reduced to penury through orphan age, who lives only for her little brothers and knows the world only through books. There are several well drawn characters in this story. Judge Fenner, of Louisiana, writes of "The Race Problem; the Negro Should Solve It,"' a paper-that opens well aud contains an accurate state ment of the race question. Anthony Comstock makes an earnest plea for "The Extirpation of the Crime Breeders ot the Day." Rossi r r Johnson contributes the best paper on Browning that has appeared since, the poet's death. Colonel Prestou Johnson, of Ex-President Davis' staff, gives some pleasant reminiscences of . General Lee. A less celebrated man, yet a fine sol dier and a splendid poker .player Robert C. Schenck, is the subject of a tribute from Donn Piatt. John F. Hume, in "How to See Europe," gives expectant tourists soms val uable counsel, j A lot of competitive papers on "The Ideal American Newspaper" will be found interest ing. The editorial departments are all, as usual, excellent and will be eagerly read. Sword Presentation. At the meeting of the W. L. I. at their Armory last night a handsome sword and belt were presented to Capt. W. R. Kenan, the company. The was made through commanding presentation Lieut. I). T. Cronly, who said: Capt. Kenan: The pleasure has oeen assigned me, sir, by tne mem bers of the company who participat ed in the competitive drill at Char lotte, of presenting to you in their behalf this sword and belt, ai an evidence of, their great appreeia tion of that uniform courtesy that characterized yeur treatment of them all on that trip, and the ser vice you nave renuereu tne com pany since you have been its com mander. Of the first, it is needless for me speak: we have all witnessed it: but, sir, we would have you know that we are aware that called to the captaincy by a unanimous vote, you, reahzinglthe sacrifice of tim, energy and money necessary to fill the position, hesitatingly and reluct antly accepted it; but having done so, from a patriotic sense of duty. you no longer hesitated, but went to worK at once, zealously, tireless ly and enthusiastically to build up the company, to make it not only worthy of our own respect, but an object of pride alike to our city and Oittie, iiuu unj wci ut u.ijy kuui n 11 y in the Guard. What has beeu the result? Need ask? Sir, I say that under your leadership we have achieved all thia and more. The first is evidenced by the increased and regular attend ance of the members at drills and meetings, and in the renewed in terest they manifest in everything pertaining to the comyany a weltare. The second was most forcibly shown bv the generous and substantial manuer in which all classes of our citizens aided us in making our fes tival a grand success, and in the hearty and spontaneous reception given us on our return from Char lotte. And, sir, the brilliant victor ies to which you led us on the hotly contested fields of Fayetteville and Charlotte bear testimony to the fact that the Wilmington Light Infantry s to dav second to no com nan v in the North Carolina State Guard. These, sir, are some f the results due to your skill and efficiency as a commanding officer, and in appre ciation of them we beg you to accept hese tokens with the assurance that so long as you can be prevailed upon to wear them as our captain, just so ong will you be unanimously elected to that office. !
