City Court.
Three cases were presented fur the
Mayor's consideration this morning. The
first case called was that ot one reier
Smith colored, charged with disorderly
conduct. He was ordered to pay a fine of
$5 and to be committed until paid.
Jhs. L. Gause, colored, was next on
docket and charged with the same of
fence as his predecessor in crime, viz:
disorderly conduct. His Honor said $3
or three days on bread and water. The
three dollars was immediately forthcom
ing and the defendant walked forth a free
man.
The next case called was that of a poor
fellow wholbelongs to one of the most
abused classes of poor suffering humanity
that can be found on this habitable globe.
He is a sailor, and his name .as he gave it
is Thos. Kelley; his offence was fighting
of course we say of course because we
suppose the poor devil had drank some of
this sailor boarding-house lightening, and
after that, no doubt, he was ready to fight
his daddy if he ever had ono. The case
was continued until to-morrow owing to.
the absence of prosecuting witnesses. The
last case being disposed of His Honor rub
bed his hands together a time or two,
then slapped on his high silk hat, and
then stepped, down and oijt.

Rev. J- A. Oertell.
Hev. Johannes Oertell, formerly of
Caldwell county, in this State, has pre
sented his ' superb ' painting The
Shadow of the Rock" to the Garden
City Cathedral, on Long Itdaud, the
magnificent, million dollar structure
now building for Mrs. A. T. Stewart.
The pointing, which is 8 by 10 feet,
will be assigned a conspicuous position

no doubt attract much attention.
Serious Accident.
On Friday afternoon about 3 o'clock
V. H. Howe met with a very serious and
painful accident. Howe was employed
as a laborer on the street car lirie, and at
the time of the accident ho was engaged
in moving iron from the track on a flat
car. He Was looking over the end of the
car examining the brake when he lost his
footing arid fell across the track, the car
4sing over his body. The flange of the
carSSSel made a gash in his abdomen.

Pendor Coiifrty,
We invite attention to our editorial
of to day, in another column, headed
'Statistics and Kesouroes of Penderi
The fireB of opposition and of perso-
cution that were raging while the
county was passing through its forma
tive stage, and the protracted excite
ment and difficulties attending the final
selection of the county site at Burgaw.
have been themes of discussion' and of
thought over the State for several
years. This causes a very natural en
quiry in the public mind whether the
new oounty is a success. Emphatically
it has been, a most decided and gratis
fying suoess, and more than repaying
all the efforts nd sacrifices inourred
in its establishment and selection of a
permanent county site. Bead the ed
itorial in question an:l any doubts on
this eubject will be removed. We
invite the tax-payers of our debt
ridden county to consider the facts
and figures showing the low taxes of
Pender, and the general good manager
ment of the publio affairs of that1 ooun
ty. Equally favorable to the new
county is the small amount of vioe and
crime that prevail there, and the im
provement and progress of education
and religion since its formation.
The Wilmington Journal.
Mb Joshua T. James, Sir : Your
revival of the Wilmington Journal
is a much needed filling up of a va
cuum in newspaper life that is sorely
felt by the hosts of friends of that old
political Bible of the people. The
lion hearted democracy have never
been reconciled to its suspension even
much less to its death. It was always
a paper of piinciple, as well as of
ability, and always led and never
followed. No political paper in the
State was ever more fondly cherish
ed, more generously sustained, or
more influential, than was this fear
less defender of the people's right and
able champion of the principles of the
democratic party. It is hallowed in
the confidence and affections of the
great democratic masses. Its former
editors, during different stages in its
long and eventful life, were David
Fulton, Alfred L. PrTce and James
Fulton, (a noble and hen-oio tribe of
patriots, now deceased) and Joseph
A. Engelhard and William L. Saun
ders, whowill bo cherished in grateful
remembrance so loDg as boldness in
the right, State pride, and patriotic
devotion, fehall be admired and honor
ed :n North Carolina. Mr. Cicero W.
Harriss did good service to the party
dnriDg the short term he edited tho
Journal.
As the buccessor of these time-honored
and useful editors and leaders
of publio sentiment the people wel
come you into the harness of the old
Journal. You have toen well-trained
in the school of its political creed and
in our darkest days, as well as in our
brightest, you have stood firm-
never quailing beneath the tyrant's
rod, or despots sceptre, or cringed in
subserviency at the inglorious shrine of
expediency. . You are worthy in the
estimation of an appreciative public,
to take the helm, especially as you
had much to do in the editorial de
partment of the old Journal during
the stormy political campaigns through
which it triumphantly passed in the
latter years of its useful existence. In
the reorganization then of this needed
work the people are with you and for
you. Again will you hang the bright
banner of tho noble old Journal on
the outer walL The masses will rally
to your support, as, in yqur .support
of their beat interests, you will stand
by principal and the right,

Clerical Visitors.
Rev. C. II. Hall. D. D.. of the Church
f the Holy Trinity. Brooklyn. Chairman
of the Committee on Freedmen in the
Jpiscopal Church, and Rev. Dr. Twyng,
f New York, General Secretary of the
uoara of Missions, arrived here last Sat
urday night. Dr. Hall was present at
St. John's yesterday morning where ho
spoke of his mission to the South; which
was to investigate the state of his church
among the colored people and, at night at
St. James', addresses were delivered by
Bishop Atkinson and Drs. Twyng and
Hall.
These gentlemen will remain in the
city for a day or two and will go hence
to Raleigh and Tarboro.
Caution to the Public.
We understand there are unprinci
pled grocers and dearlers who palm
off on unwary puchasers Yeast Pow
der in bulk, or loose. For the protec
tion of kousekeepers and the publio
genuine Dooley'b Yeast Powder is
sold only in cans. Always refuse to
purchase except in cans, securely label
ed. The fao-simile signature of Doolet
& Brother the manufacturers, is
Plainly printed on each lael.
(Wilmington Democrat.)
The Wilmington Jounal.
As will be seen by reference to pros
pectus in another column, the publica
tion of this old favorite, so long known
to many of our reaners, is to be resumed,
and will make its first appearance under
new auspices on Thursday evening, the
6th of December next. It will be issued
weekly at the very low price of 2.00
per annum, and will be edited and pub
lished by Josh T. James, Esq.. the able
editor and proprietor of our muchesteem
ed contemporary the Daily Review1.
In view of the long experience and. well
known talent of Mr. James as a journalist
it would be useless for us to say that the
Journal will be in able hands, and we
can" only add that like himself it will be
Democratic clear through. We extend
to Bro. Jlrraes our heartiest wishes for his
success.
Criminal Court.
The fifth regularysession of this court
for the County of NewHanover convened
this morning at the CouTt House at 10
o'clock, His Honor Judge" Meares pre
siding. The grand jury was impanneled and
duly sworn in, when the Judge pro
ceeded to deliver his charge, which was
characterized by His Honor's usual clear,
explicit and forcible manner. There is
no use tor a jury and especially a Jgrand
jury to profess ignorance upon any point
of the law connected with their duty as
jurymen after one of Judge Metres'
charges. I
The following named persons were
sworn in as the grand jury for this term
of the Court:
H C Evans, Foreman'; W E Springer,
Sol Reaves, Richard . Boasley, Wm H
Goodman, Jessie Ives, Samuel Davis, D
M Dart, James W Telfair, George W
Murray, John Evangelist, Joseph Farrow,
David Pigott, Thomas A Davis, J II
Mallard, Rederick MacRae, John T
Flowers, E H Rhue.
At the conclusion of Judge Meares'
charge t the grand jury retired and the
Court adjourned until half past two this
afternoon when the regular docket will be
taken up. We learn that there arc fifty
seven cases docketed already; the num
ber, however, will doubtless be added to by
the grand jury, who will probably find
a few true bills before the time expires.
