Immense Rainfall II e a v i c s t in
Forty Years .Machine shops aiii
Grocery Store Ovc i (lowed Loss
by Damage Over Five Hundred
Dollars.
The rainfall to-day .is beyond doubt the
heaviest seen in this section for a number
of years past. It commenced raining at
5:40 this morning and up to 1U:30 this
noon, so we learn from Mr. N. G. Brewer,
assistant to- Mr. -Ralston, Scj-gcant in
charce of the U. S. Signal (.ftice,. three
r -I
inches and twenty-sis. one hundreds of an
inch of rain had failed dining the interim.
The opinion expressed by an old citizen is
that it was the heaviest rain he had seen
here in forty years. At eleven o'clock
MARKET STIiEET,
between Front and Second, was one sheet
of water covering the sidewalk and run
ning like a mill-tail to the river. x. man
who lucklessly dropped his basket, which
was born off by the waters, was com
pelled to wade to recover it, and while
crossing a gutter to get to the " sidewalk
came very near having his feet swept
from under him by the water which was
rushing turbulcntly to its natural outlet,
the river. ,
A FLOCK OF GEESE
took refuge under a cart on Second street
being unable toistem the volume of .water
which came like a cataract down Market
street. Put foe the promise in the Rook
of Books, wc would have expected auothcr
flood when wc saw the immense volume
of water in the alley ruuuing between
Front and Second streets.
THE SEWEII
crossing the alley about mid-way, was
totally inadequate to carry off the im
mense body of water, and soon the back
lots to Market street, residences and stores
were'ovcrfiowed to the depth of at least
one foot.
The water coming with such impetus
through the alley, the machine shops, office
and yard of Hart, Bailey & Co., were soon
overflowed, the water rushing through
the yard and shops with sufficient force to
prevent the men at work to stand by their
benches. They
KNOCKED OFF WOIIK,
and used their utmost exertions iu rolling
out goods from the back room of Mr. Geo.
Myers' grocery si.ore where the water had
risen to (he depth of eighteen inches. By"
the exertions of the men many dollars
were saved Mr. Myers, but at 12 o clock
his loss by damage was' estimated to bo at
least
FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS.
In his store room,in the rear of the store
meats,- flour and molasses were sub
merged and the water was breaking over
tho barricade into the main building.
While the men employed in the
machine shops were busy in saving Mr.
Myers stock the water was overflowing
IIart,Bailey & Co ?s office and the establish
ment of Parker & Taylor on 1 Front street
The hands in the i
TIN SHOPS
of Parker Jc Taylor knocked off work and
succeeded in moving all articles which
could be damaged by water. A ditch
was dug iu the rare of Parker. & Taylors
store which carried the water down
through the alley between Capt. II. D.
Gilbert's bakery aud the hardware estab
lishment o Ur. Geo. A. Peck-, thence
through the gutter to the dock at the foot
of Dock street. i
The rain ot three weeks ago and that of
to-day illustrates the fact that the sewer
which crosses Dcttcncourt s alley is not
sufficiently large to carry off the water of
any extraordinary rainfall. .
Wcjundcrstand it is the intention of
Mr. Myers to sue the city for damages, as
it is claimed that his loss by the 1.-st two
floods is very nearly $1,000.
Messrs. Brown & Roddick were also
heavy looscrs by damage. The pipes
placed for the purpose of carrying off the
water to the cistern becamo choaked up
and the water pouad down in the store
through the ceiling damaging at least five
hundred dollars worth of goods. The
water was ankle deep in the store while
in a room above it the water was over a
foot deep. The rain at
. j j SMITH VILLE
was very light and was not accompanied
by either thunder or lightning.
Jopanese fans arc more popaular in
Xew York' than ever, and that their beau

Down the River. j
In the midst of a driving rain storm we
write this morning of the very pleasant
experiences of last evening, the occasion
being the moonlight party given on board
the steamer Underbill, kindly tendered for
that purpose by Mr. Parsley, by the
L' Arioso Pleasure Club. There was not
a crowd (who doesn't hate a crowd?) but
there were just enough of the young folks
of both sexeti, with a sprinkling of doubled
up' couples, to render the affair just what
it was, a source of real enjoyment and
genuine pleasure. The boat left her
wliarf at 9 o'clock, and steamed
down the river for about 14 miles, about
opposite Mr. Owen D. Holmes' landing
at Kendall, after which her bows were
turned homeward. Arriving at the city
the party passed on up to Hilton and then
returning landed at Mr. Parsley's wharf
at 1 o'clock. Of course there , were the
usual concomitants of dancing and ice
cream, both served up by the young gen
tlemen of the L'Arioso, but there were
many on board who took more stock in
the beauty of the night, the shimmer; of
the moon upon the water, the lapping
and kissing of the waves, the- ah!
hear what Mrs. Welby, the sweet Ken
tucky singer', says about such things :
The Summer hours like birds flew by
As joyous and as free, ,
Ten thousand stars were in the sky
Ten thousand on the sea ;
For every wave, with dimpled face,
That leapt upon the air,
Had caught a star in its embrace
And held it trembling there.
, Thanks for Courtesies.

Taylor, of the second battalion North
Carolina Stas Guards, and Capts. Coney,
Gordon ,'Fhv.inc? and ?q the other officers
and member, of their respective compa
nies, and to the officers and members of
the Cornet Concert Club for courtesies and
kindnesses extended to the company dur-
ing their recent isifc to Wilmington, and
adding that "this occasion has but added
another link to the many ties that bind
Wilmington and Charlotte indissolubly
together as they march onward and up

and progress.
"Dr. Geo. Thomas.''
i x r '
we nave seen many strange and mar
velous things in time, but the Indiaman,
"Dr. Geo. Thomas" surpasses them all.
He is certainly a human being, and yet
has the power to move his entrails at will,
from side ta side or up and down. His
heart moves to any portion' of his chest as
he wills it, and lie has the power to lower
his ribs to the depths of his abdomen. He
has complete control' over his pulse and
pulsation ceases whenever he , desires it.
We consider the bending of the three
quarter inch bar of iron by 'striking it
against his arm as the least rcrharkablc of
his feats, as that is the effects of muscular
development, but like the medical men of
the country wc are at a los3 to understand
how he can perform so many heretofore
unseen and unheard of movements of his
physical parts., ' I

of the house, instead of accommodating
him this time secured the services of a
policeman and had him arrested.

Editor of the Review:
Dear Sir In.a recent number of the,
Review you mention the planet Jupiter,
and say its satellites can be seen by look
ing at it in a mirror. Do you really in
tend to say that a plain mirror can mag
nify the star, or give acutcness to the
sight ? If neither of these, how else can
the mirror enable one to see what cannot
be seen with the eye alone ?
; I have not tried your modest method of
star-gazing (the only night I have thought
of it clouds were in the way) but I am
very sure the satellites of Jupiter can't be
seen without the aid of a telescope. Jupi
ter may show two or more reflections in
a mirror, and so might any other bright
star, or the moon, or a caudle; but none
of them would represent satellites. How
one star or other light san show more
than one reflection from a mirror n not
easy to tell; at Jcast.I have never heard it
explained. Probably, however, the glass
reflectsjrom botbsurfaces.. The 'distal"
surface with the metaij backing gives, no
doubt, tho central and brighter reflection.
The proximal or front surface with only
a backing of shade, gives a reflection of
less brightness. Then the strong light
reflected from tho metal backing, may be
reflected upon it again from the proxi
mal surface of the glass, which having
the shade of night on both sides, can re
flect in both directions. This third re
flection would necessarily be dim, having
passed through the glass three times and
having been reflected as often. Of course
refraction of the light, by the glass, must
account for the fact that these several re
flections' are not concentrated into one. If
this theory is correct, a mirror of polished
metal, having a single reflecting surface,
would give only one reflection of the star
or other, light. II.
The above is the explanation of a "good
goak, well took," .which has penetrated
pretty well in this city and section. Of
course tthc whole thing is a sell, h fact
which some have probably found out for
themselves and others have not. It is a
very pretty deception, though, and it
seems a pity that it is a deception. Wc
didn't dike to spoil the fun by telfing all
about it, but now that our correspondent
has written aboijit it, wc must acknowl
eage that it is "jejss so." His explanatipn
of the phenomenon of the three-fold reflec
tion is a very ingenuous one, onlyto sim
plify it all, it will be easily understood
when it is considered that the star itself
(or the moon or a candle) is reflected but
once from the glas3, but that the J"statcl
lites" are but , refractions of a reflection.
Now you know all about it, don't you '
