A very large meeting was held in the vestry room of the Temple of Israel on Sunday last, which resulted in the selec tion for the third term of the Rev. S. Mendelsohn. We congratulate our Jewish friends upon their determination of doing justice tc-oue who is eminently fitted for the position of minister and teacher. Dr. Mendelsohn is a gentleman of culture, and sheds a lustre upon the work and call ing of his life. He is not alone popular among his own flock, but has won for himself a warm place in the hearts of the j Christians of this CDmmunlty. Some time ago we were creditably informed that j Dr. Mendelsohn would not be a candidate for re-election, but as his heart isith his people, it is to be hoped he will accept the place so unanimously tendered .him.

At the annual meeting of the members of the Cape Fear Club last evening for election of officers for the ensuing year, Capt. Charles D. Myers declined a I ie-clcctiou as President and Maj. Henry G. Flanner, was ' chosen to fill the place. Capt. ii. . Lang don was elected Vice-President aid Dr. J. C. Walker Secretary and Treasur Pj The Vice-President and Secretary constitute the Governing Committee of the Club. We should like very much to see the Cape Fear Club made an institu tion of the city. Why. is it that our busi ness men don't take more ; interest in this dub ? In Norfolk, Charleston, Savannah and all other Southern cities on the At lantic coast, the merchants and business men of the community take a deep inter est in their finely flourishing clubs, and though there are many subscribers to the same who never YinUIwcIab rooms, they pay their regular dues fbr the sake of keeping alive the institution, believing It to be a soijt of necessary evil, as all the ltdies would say. ; , City Court The cute of the two colored women Hester Swaimaml l.'llie Wad.lt-1!, which hdb b-en agitating the u.ind of the Court lor the last few days,-vs finally dispied of this morning by the defendants taking an appeal to the Criminal Court.

The Last ad Kite? The mortal remains of Mr. R.J.Gill, who was stricken down a few days ago with an epileptic fit and who died night before last, were followed to their last resting place this afternoon by the Mason ic fraternity and his brother workmen of the railroad shops; As a mark of re spect to the memory of the- deceased all work has been suspended at the shops since mid-day.
