A meeting of considerable interest is in progress at the First Baptist Church in this city. The Pastor. Rev. J. B. Tay lor, is aided by the Rev. F.

Talking of Christmas, we must not forget the home trimmings soon to be worn.JJFoitunately, the old fashionj of the evergreens becomes newer every year. In the fresh growth whose roots strike eighteen centuries deep the flowerless plants take up a sudden bloom; their stiff and rugged forms become beautiful with household grace. What wonder, as each Christmas draws near, we hasten to brighten our homes with their branches? The trimmings need not be elaborate or shoAvy. A few little sprays may suffice any thhi to make a writinon the wall IhaCtJVery one, from grandpa to the baby, may read. - - If wreaths and festoons are required, lost strings of twine may be deftly covered with arbor-vitjii sprigs, and swung from point j.o point, or wound about some else bare column; or better still, the trailing evergreen, popularly known as Ger man ivy, may be used. It is iound in many localities, but most abundant, we believe, in the Orange Mountains. If one cannot turn mountaineer for its own sake, it may be purchased in almost any street or market place as the blessed day draws near. Hemlock, pine, spruce and laurel boughs, all are beautiful a cluster here, a festoon there, and perhaps a few green sprays tenderly encircling the picture of one whoso memory draws the living closer together. Sometimes a Christmas motto may be needed over archway or entrance, or in grandmama's warm corner where the big chair stands Jt is easily made by cut ting the required letters out of stiff paper, and lightly sewing on bits of Arbor Vitae, taking care that the letter's edge be not too sharply defined. Another way of covering the forms is to glue moss upon them ; and still another though it is trai torous to suggest it, is to paint the paper letters with glue and immediately sprin kle on a quantity of fine evergreen clip pings scarcely larger than rose thorns; Then there s the Christmas tree. Never omit that. Let it be large or small, richly lighted and laden, or only daintly pricked 'off with candles, candies and follies but a Christmas tree let there be. Hemlock, cedar spruce and pine are suited to the purpose, but prettier and farmer than all is the species known as the white pine so rich a green, and withal so light and feathery that, lit with its hundred tapers, it looks like a Christmas fountain covered with sparkles of sunlight. Is it more stylish to have Christmas trees for the children than to let the little creatures hang up their stockings as their great-grandmothers did? No, no. We all do as we please in the matter. The high fashion authorities are silent here ; you must lay your ear against tho great warm heart of Christmas and listen. Arrested. Officer Woebse, of the night' police force, was called on last night about 11 o'clock to make the arrest of a sailor by tho name of Carl Gustave Andersen, who was creating a disturbance on South Water street, but was prevented from doing so by the interference of another sailor by the name of Joseph Uarlsen,. which enabled Andersen to make good his escape for the time. Tho policeman then turned his attention to : uarlsen and succeeded in conveying him safely to the guard house. Ihis morning Mayor Dawson issued a warrant for the arrest of Andersen, who belongs on board of the Nor. barque Equator. The warrant was duly executed by an officer of the police force, who found Anderson on board of the above named vessel and car ried him to the lock-up. The trial of both cases will come up before the Mayor to-morrow morning at 10 o clock. A Sad Accident. We regret to learn of the sad and tragic death yesterday at Halifax of Edward Conigland, Esq., one of the most promi nent citizens of his section and indeed of the State. Mr. Conigland, who was very deaf, owned a farm a few miles south of Halifax which he had visited during the day and was on his way home at Halifax, late in the afternoon, when the accident occurred. He was walking on the railroad track and was oh a very sharp curve just as the up train thundered along at tnat point. He was se?n by the engineer as soon as he came within view and every effort in the power of mortal man was made to not only warn him of his danger but to stop the tram. But the whistles were not heard and he passed on unconscious of the dreadful fate hovering over him until he was struck by the train and crushed to death. Mr. Conigland was about 15 yeani of age at the time of his death. He has long been known as one of the most eminent lawyers in the State and has filled honorablv and acceptably more than one office in the gift of the people. He was an honorable, up aight man in every department of life and his death will be deplored from one end of the state to the other. River Notes. A very dense fog prevailed in the river last night. It was so heavy some dis- ence in the interior that you could scarce ly see ten feet in front of you. Inconse auence of this the steamer D. Murchison was compelled to tie up at Whitehall until 4 o clock this morning. nrjp to yesterday morning the water in the river at Fayetteville had fallen some 25 or 30 feet, but as there were then un mistakable evidences of more rain in the interior a farther rise is anticipated. Less than three week off now boys. Spoken at Sea. The Captain of the Schr.Jitt. O Stoter, which arrived here this morning in distress, reports having spoken Schr. Mary A. Case off Hatteras on the 2nd inst. from Rar ritan, West Indies, for New York with mainmast gone. Captain and two of the crew badly hurt by railing of the mast. Reducing The Police Forte. One Sergeant and three privates were discharged this morning from the police force of this city. This action has been renderedered necessary we understand on account of the limited appropriation made for paying off the police. In Distress. The Scbr James Q. Stover, Capt. Clay from Jacksonville, Fla., on the 24th of November with cargo of lumber, bound for Boston, put in below yesterday in a leaking condition and this morning was towed up to the city. The Captain states that directly after crossing St. John's Bar, Fla., his vessel sprang a leak and has been in that condition eve: since, requir ing the constant working of the ship's pumps to keep her afloat; besides this ac cident the vessel encountered a gale of wind during which she lost her deck load. The Captain and crew are all very much exhausted. The vessel will go on Messrs. Cassidey & Ross' Railway for repairs. Messers. E. G. Barker Co. , are the con signees of thisdisabled schooner. (Wilson Advance.) Journalistic. The old weekly Wilmington Journal will be revived by Mr. Josh T. James, editor of the DaIly Review. Mr. James was connected for a long time with the Journal in its palmiest days, and we expect to see it attain its former prestige and usefulness under his management. Charlotte Democrat. The old Wilmington Journal Week ly) is to be revived and will make its ap pearance in the city of Wilmington on the first Thursday in December, under the editorial control and management of Mr. Josh T. James, of the Wilmington Review. Mr. James was for many years connected with the old Journal as one of its editors, in which position he won the reputation that makes the Review so conspicuously prominent in tho State as one oi its leading journals, buccess to the enterprise. (Raleigh Farmer and Mechanic.) Mr. Josh. T. James, of that capital lit tle daily, the Wilmington Review, has moved into the old Journal office, and will issue the revived Journal, weekly at $200 per annum. This, with the Democrat, will give the lower Cape Fear section, two excellent representaiives and wo shall be well supplied with the news thereirom. Wish you a 40-horse power success, friend James. N. C. Presbyterian.! Mr. Joshua T. James, of the Daily Review, of this city, having purchased he material, etc., of the old Wilmington Journal, announces that he will revive the weekly issue of that once powerful paper on the first Thursday in December. The office of the Review and Journal is on the southeast corner of Water and Chestnut streets. Hickory Press. Attention is directed to the prospectus of the weekly Wilmington Journal. Mr. Josh T. James, now proprietor of tho Daily Review, will revive the Journal, and judging from his newspaper expe rience and journalistic ability this paper will rise as a pheemx from the rubbish of two deaths, in all'the activity and force of former days. Itockingham Splrit of tho South. Mr. Josh T, James, of the Wilming ton Review, announces that he will re vive tho old Wilmington Journal weekly the first number to appear on Thursday next, Cth inst. The paper is to be Democratic, as in its former days faithful to the traditions of that party, and will bo issued regularly every Thurs day. Mr. James was for several years connected with the old Journal as one of its editors, and will no doubt exercise the same untiring energy in his new enterprise that he did in the former exist ence of that paper.
