McDonald, the stranger who was found asleep on a. bale or nay anaarresieu on suspicion Tuesday night, referred the Mayor to his former employer at Na&hua, sew Hampshire, as to his being all that he- represented himself to be, viz: a workman In search of employmriit. Accordingly thciMayor tclegraphal tD the parties and this rooming received a dispatch iu reply stating that McDonald's character was good. McDonald was . thereupon dis charged, Recovery j of a Watch and Chain. A letter Svas received here this morning directed to the Chief of police, from S. J. Kadcliffe, Chief of Police, Columbia S. C. asking' if anyone in this city had lost a tinej huutiug-caso -guldj watch double movement, aWa fine gold chain. ' The watch and chain was taken from an es caped convict who had been in the city, and who was subsequently arrested aud carried to Columbia. Capt. Kadcliffe ex pressed the belief that the watch and chain bad bceii stolen while the fugitive was in Wilmington. Wc do not reoool Meet at present of having bearl of "tho articles being stolen in i this city, but if our memory serves us right, a watch and chain was stolen about two months ago, frpln a citizen of the town of Golds boro. .. i-'..

Memorial Day. The Ladies of the Memorial Association arc fast perfecting then arrangements for the proper celebration of their hallowed Memorial Day, which falls due 'on the 10th of May, two weeks from to-day. Capt. Jno. T. Rankin has been chosen Chief Marshal and iu a few days his Aides will be announced." Mr. Jno. C. James has been selected to deliver the Memorial Address on the occasion" and he has accepted the invitation, while Rev. J. B. Taylor, Pastor f tbe First Baptist Church, I will; serve as .Chaplain. Full particulars of the arrangements will be announced as soon as they are perfected. When and How to Kat Fruit. When fruit does harm it is because it is eaen at improper times, in improper quantities, or before it is ripened and fit for the human stomach, A distinguished physician has said that if his patients would make a practice of eating a couple of good oranges before breakfast, from February to June, his practice would be gone. The principal evil is that we do not eat enough of fruit; that we injure its fiucr qualities with sugar ; that wc drown them in cream. We need . the medical action of tho pure fruit acids in our' As tern, and their cooling, corrective influ ence. . , j '. Mail rrom this City. For a period of four weeks, commenc ing January 15, 1877, there were 41,337 letters weighing 909 pounds and 10,241 postal cards weighing 65 pounds sent from' this city, as wc. learn from a detailed "t-l'?cnt of mail matter funmhed by the Postoflicc Department : at4 H asmngion City. The total of - 260 of tho largest Postoflices shows that 29,076,423' letters and 6,199,326 postal cards were set duri ng that period.

We regret to say that only a medium sized audinence assembled at the Temple of Israel last night to i bear! the beautiful and highly interesting lecture of Rabbi Ed. B. M, Browne, on "the Talmud, its Ethics and Literary Beauty." Those who. were fortunate enough to be in attendance were regaled with a discourse ; of more than ordinary force and beauty having for its subject the description and expla nation of one of the Bublimcst codes of ancient or modern times. Tho Talmud, said the learned lecturer, comprised the laws and everything pertaining to the govornmont of the Hebrews when these laws had been reduced to writing; It, ho said, would make about three hundred volumes of ordinary sire of five hundred pages, (folio) each, and had neither index nor digest. The lecturer discoursed at length the ethics of this great work, and explained how. on account of the Hebrews having at different timesf been overcome by different nations, their laws and cus toms had been preserved iu the dialects which were the result of 4he combinalUuCT; quantance with the Talmud ; presupposed J a thorough knowledge of a( jeati six' dif- j ferent languages. This wa a height cjf knowledge to which very few ever attain ed, consequently the Talmud remained a sacred arcana of mystic and almost forgot ten lore oaaccouut of the great difficul ties that beset the path , of Jhe ej3vrcr after knowledge iu this direction. But, suEc it to say as our space will net per mit us to go further in artemptiug a synopsis of the cveuiugu discourse, that it was one of great comprehensiveness .ana abounded in apt and happy illustraUons, by way of anecdote, which .were at . times amusing aud laughable. Tho lecture was a decided success. ail the lecturer showed a tborongh acquaintance , with ' bis subject and an appreciation with its salient noiBts that won the closest aUoUk'tt of tbe audi ence.
