' - KKN.MliNT.
Yesterday we printed Gen. Roberts
bill on County government.
The fourth section is not sufficiently
explicit. The manner of ascertaining
the populationwhether by a uew niu
nieipal census or by the general census
4if 1S70 is important," Some oC w
cities and towus have increased largely
since 1870. I
We believe xf the constitutional
right of th'elLegisla'ture to elect, for
the people officers in the municipal
and county governments, though we
shall not discuss the point here
It is clear to our mind that a popular
election cannot cure the ills we endure,
but may intensify them and render
them permanent.
As to the Supreme Court's probable
action there is no tolling what that
may be, even if an election is held and
is carried by tho Democrats. Sufficient
unto the day is the evil thereof.
We declare for aa honest, a
squaro-ant, a 11 it-footed government,
to be constituted by the Legislature,
for the county of New Hanover aud
for other oouuties now underjiegro
rule. And, a the greater includes
the less, we likewise ptououuoe in
favor of a municipal government to
be constituted by the same power
after direful consultation with rep
resontative gentlemen of the city of
Wilmington. ;

We clipped the following from one
of our exohasges on yesterday and
reproduce it for the purpose of cor

Joe." B. Batcbelor, Jr., of Raleigh
stainls C.st in his class at West
Poipt. Mi. Batcbelor is the oniy
North Carolinian who has ever at
tained this distinction.
Mr. William Henry Wright, a na
tive of this city and nephew of our
distinguished fellow-oitizan, William
.A. Wright, Eiq , graduated with the
Irghest distinction at. West Point
and was a licnte ant in the' Engineer
corps of the TJuited States Army up
to the time of his death, which oo
cured many years before the war.
Lt. Wright and General Beauregard
were members of the same class,
aud the impression has been general
ly received that their grade as
students was so nearly the name that
the Professors could not make any
dislineiiou bet veeu them, but had a
competitive exiiffliuatiou between
th" two, wiuo'i resultedlu the high
est hoiiors being couferrod-upoo the
former. ' This wax not so, however,
General Beauregard, while upon a
visit to Raleigh during the war (aud
in conversation with Mr. William A
Wright, whoni he met there) npon
being asked as to the circ imstances,
said : ''It in a mistake. In my na
tive language, or that of my parents,
French, I was ahead of him, but that
iu very other study beas- head
aud shoulders above me." Lienteo
ant Wright was charged with the
immediate supervision of the con
struction of Fort Warren iu Bostou
harbor, one of the principal ports in
the United Slates. Lt. Totten be
ing at the time Chief of Engineers,
residing at Washington Crty. While
lu cbt rge of this work he published
a book ou "Mortars ' the origtujil
manuscript of which is now iu tuis
city in the possession of a relative,)
which General Beauregard declared
to be the vade ineciim of the Engi
neer corps of .the United States
army, and which had been translated
iu the Frenou language, Throughout
the whole of the, course at West
Point, Lt Wright stood first in bis
class and graduated with the highest
honors, lie died comparatively a
young man, being about thirty years
old.

The features and expression of the

thought the hands were unlike the

mood that we speak of the work of art,
