Yesterday was another beautiful day and proved most auspicious for the suc cess of the fair. The special i trains with largely increased passenger accommoda tions," were in at JO-o'clock laden down with passengers, and at 12 o'clock the grounds were almost packed. As to the number present we cannot determine, as there is so great a space for scattering, but from the gate receipts wc may safely say there wcro over lo,0.Q0. , PARADE OF LIVIT kTOCK. The first in order at the grounds yes terday was the parade ot live stocfc upon the racetrack. In the Ions line, which wc looked at were noticed many fine . i i i , it i specimens or uiooucu uuiis, cows ana calves. At the stalls we noticed a large number -of fine hogs, sheep and other ani mals which were not taken out. Ihe great distance of the livestock stalls from the mam grounds is a sad defect in the layingrd" the fair grounds as it prevents all but lovers of blooded stock from seeing the display. The stock exhibition, how ever, is very crcditablo to the State. THE BINGHAM SCHOOL. Promptly at 11:30 a. m., ' Col. Robert Bingham marched the Bingham school cadets into the area inside of the race track , and for one Ihour handled the boys in a most cfiicicut manner, puttiug them through the many movements of the drill. The drill of. the cadets.was brought to a close bv the announcement that the hour for Governor. Wade Hampton s speech had ir; vnrl Ktt rvhod v rushed for the mderes iiffiifflSuitiue SQxents, .worth 42 cts. . , . , (Governor Vance in a few Vatalass Dress Suiting from 25 cents. wordg: 1)aying a well deserved compliment to the true patriot and statesman, intro duced the speaker of the day, General Wade Hampton, who spoke to the (vast multitude befoic him. ! TIIEKUSH AND JAM 1 in the various halls was something won derful. -Thfs continued from the opening of the gates to almost the going, down of the sun. 1 The crclwd was rather a hetero geneous one. , Silks and calicos, broad cloth and homespun mingled in a truly republican fashion.

' Considering the largo crowd present, it may be ttuth fully said that pxccllent order was maintained. Puring the earlier hours several drunken men created some disturbance in one of the halls, but were promptly expelled by the vigilant police..

The deceased was only 28 or 30 years of age. To-day is the annivcrsory of the bat tie of Cedar Creek in the Valley of Virginia 1864by the Confederate forces under com mand of General Jubal A. Early on the one side, and'the Federal troops under Sheridan on the other. It was on this renowned field that the gallant Ramsenr commanding Rhodes' division recciTed his death wound. 1Kb braver sorl ever drew nmrd from a scabbard than this heroic North Carolina soldier.

C, Dr. J. M. Strdng. It is handed us for publication by Dr. R. K. Gregory, who received it from Dr. Strong, who has used it in his practice in, Mecklenburg county, and out of a large number of cases saved nearly all. Try it; it is simple and can bo easily used by any one : Boil two drachms of plug tobacco in one quart of water down to one pint, then aaa one aracnm ot powdered rod pepper, one teaspoonful of salt and ten drops of carbolic acid. Shake well and apply with a feather, brush or mop to the throat every hour, or gargle the throat of the patient. . The diet should be rich and nutritious, such as milk, eggs, beef orjmutton essence, chicken soup &c. " The Blondes. . i. That was a large gathering of the stag element which assembled at the Ooera House last night to greet the " Dizzy s" on their first appearance in Wilmington. There was'nt a yard of calico in the house that is on the audience pide of the foot lights, but there was'nt any room for it in the orchestra chairs, every one of which was filled by a masculine sight-seer, to1 say nothing of the seats behind and those in the dress circle. Of the. performance we shall have but little to say. Some parts were very pretty, some very funny and some very plain to the view of the audience. ' There will be another and last performance to-night, on which occasion we are told that tho programme is to be changed. Hotel Arrivals. Pcrcell House, Cobb Bros.

They - are of muslin, finely tucked by hand, feather stitched, an trimmed with a lace ruche. Sheer linen cambric, instead of thick linen, is used for wide round collars, and the Anne-of-Austria cuffs, that arc to be worn outside of sleeves. Maroon redi which is much darker than cardinal, is a favorite color in France tor visiting toilets, rivaling the moss and olivo hues that will probably; soon become common here. . .

It is the Prin ce8se dress, With this difference: It is not caught up in buffant drapery, but hangs in graceful folds from the waist to the foot. This change in the draping of dresses is said to be due to Worth, who desires to see the rich brocades fall in natural folds, instead of being crushed and bunched up in paniers. ,i " ' : , Warm again to-day aod straw hats and ljnen . dusters i aro reappearing on the reappearing v streets. !
