WILMINGTON, N. C, THURSDAY, APRIL i De Lnnatico- i , Sheriff Haynes, of Columbus county; brought to the city this mornings an un fortunate by the name of Patrick Jordan, an Irishman, who has been pronounced insane by Dr. Jackson, of WhiteTille. Jordan is 31 years of age, unmarried, and has been at work for some seven months past for Col. Short, at Flemington. The cause of his trouble is , unknown, but . is supposed to have originated from some abd news received from the old country. He lived in Wilmington about two years before removing to Columbus, and not having acquired a legal residence in that county he was sent back - here.; Sheriff Manning wai uot anxious to take him and as the man's insanity is of a very mild character, and very much improved at hat, he is allowed his liberty on parole. Oa resigning charge of him bnerm Haynes kindly supplied the poor fellpw With funds for his immediate necessities The Charlotte Chicken Fight. The cocking main in Charlotte be ween North Carolina and Georgia, which was sei 'for Tuesday last, and about which go much interest had settled, did not take place, Georgia having made a clean back down 'and paid the forfeit. However, there were some side shows in that line and as a matter of interest to our readers we copy here the Charlotte Observer's report of the, days doings: A damper was thrown over the spirits of the sporting men yesterday morning when they awoke to .hna a steaay rain ailing, with no prospect ot abatement during the day, but every detail of1 the cocking main had been A arranged, ana a postponement was impossible. Many of the parties had come a long way to, see the fight, and they were determined, to see it if they had to stand in the rain all day . But when the time arrived lor tne matching to begin, everybody was! non plussed by the announcement that the Georgia side had concluded to pay me ior feit. &250..and not fight the main. They assigned as a reason for this action that . - . ... i:.: xi their cocks are no in a coumuuu iyr fighting, owing to the fact that the time between their arrival and the beginning of the main was not sufficient to get them in order. 1 Had (yesterday beenm clear day this might have been possible, but under the circumseances it was not thought ad visable to risk their reputation. They also state that they would have come to -the city at an earlier day but for the tact that some of their cocks were taKen sick a few. day 8 before they were to have , left home, and ttey hoped to ba able to induce the North Carolina side to postpone the main. Having failed in this they de termined to do the best they could. They paid the forfeit very willingly and while there is some little dissatisraction among a few of the visitors on account ol the disappointment, the matter has been amicably and pleasantly aaju:-ea oeiweeu the managers. . , I ' While this for the present, at j lease im poses of the main between Georgia and North Carolina, it by no means ends tne fighting between the cocks from each State. Arrangements were immediately made for several back fights, two of which were set for the later hour. ,These came off about 3 o'clock in the afternoon, but were not Very largely attended on account of heavy rain which fell about that time. The bet ting was, however, lively and considerable interest was taKen m uie ugms. x uc Al lowing is a report of the contests : - First jight Stake twenty dollars. The North Carolina side pitted an English and Fl"ey-eyed cross, white plumage and white legs, weighing 4 pounds, y ounces. The Georgia side pitted a Franklin (Columbia) cock, red piumage, weigmng 4 pounds 9 ounces, 'lhey lougns u minutes and 22 seconds, the Georgia cock receiving one cut in the back, but finally disabling his antagonist by several cnta in the neck, thigh and breast. Second Fighi Stake twenty-hvo aoi- iaM North Carolina im jentms cork, liffht red, weighing 5 pounds, 14 Ounces, against Georgia English Shawl Neck, weighing 5 pounds, 14 ounces. Thisfieht lasted 13 minutes and 40 seconds. The Georgia cock finally killed his antagonist by a cut through the neck, hnt not until he had received several severe cuts himself. rnu : -AnA V 45 r h t j 1 n the -fair enroll nris for the dav. but there were seve U1S CLIV.A uw 0 - I - ral private fights 1 between chickens belonging to parties in the; city, at a pit constructed in the rear of Tom Black's salonnast nisht. ! a rran oements have been made lor several probably as many as a half dozen hack-fights between the Georgia and North Carolina cocks to-day, and there will doubtless be as many more; to-mor row. i It was reported in the city last night that several sporting men would arrive from Atlanta and other; points in Georgia this morning and that there was a strong probability that arrangements would be mad hv them for another main1 to come off possibly to-morrow, each ide show ing fifteen cocks. At any rate a strong effort will be made to euecx sucn an arrangement. There are American j newspapers that actually steal the paragraph that accuses them 01 stealing. It is enough to make a penitentiary blush. T , Personal. , Mr. Charles A. Larendon, and his bride, the daughter of that gallant old Confeder ate chieftain, Gen. Beauregard, arrived here yesterday, and are the gnests of a near relative, Mr. R. E. Calder. , They will re main here for a few days only, and will leave Wilmington for jNew York, from whence they will sail for Europe. j A Pleasant Little Affair. . One of those pleasant little affairs which enliven life, cement old friendships and inaugurate new ones and which serves to relieve the tedium of trad and bustle oe cured last evening at the residence of A. Adrian, Esq. the popular and whole-souled gentleman who has su long held as prominent a position in the hearts of his countrymen here as in the respect and esteem of all of the citizens of the place. About 9 o'clock last night the members of the Howard Relief Eire, Engine Co., No 1. began by twos and threes to assemble in the Mozart Saloon, on Front street and soon nearly every member of the Com pany was present, lhey then, (accom panied by the Cornet Concert Club, pro ceeded in a body to the residence of Mr. Adrian, on. Orange, between Second and Third streets, where the Club discoursed some of their sweetest strains. Mr. Adrian appeared1 and invited them all in, which invitation was accepted and then the ob ject of the visit became apparent. Mr. W. F. Lessman, on behalf of the members of the Company, stepped to the front ,and in a very neat aud graceful and feeliiig little address presented a?i a 1 r;u t silver trumpet to Mp. Adrian, the Foreman of thej Company. That genlkman, who was visibly affected atj this 'evidence of the re gard and esteem of the jgentlemeu; f the Howard Relief, replied briefly, thanking them very cordially fur this manifes tation and the honor they had done him, saying that he would treasure that hour in his memory as one of the proudest of his life. After this there was a general hand shaking and! a tossing off of brini ming bumpers to the long life of both donors and recipient. Mr.1 Adrian's hopitality, like his heart, was large and for an hour or more there wa3 an old fash- i ion good time on hand for everybody. The trumpet is a very handsome one and was ordered expressly for the occa sion. It is beautifully! chased and orna mented, with a well executed engraving of the steamer. On one side are the words "Steameij A. Adrian," and on the reverse ard Relief Fire Engine Co. No. 1, by the Officers and Members of 'the Compauy." Back Again- , Mr. W. Roddick, of Messrs. Brown & Roddick, Market street,, has returned from his Spring trip to the North. He visited the markets of Baltimore, Philadelphia, New York and Boston, keeping his weather eye open all the timeTor bargains. In consequence he has-been able' to buy lots of goods Iwhich will be opened and displayed in a few days at prices which will make people wonder if the millenium is near at hand. I I City Court. Two small colored boys were arrested last night for disorderly conduct. One, quite a little shaver, who was charged with throwing stones was sent home by the Mayor protemp with a policeman to his mother with instructions to see that the boy's maternal gave him a gd castigation The other, not so small, was arrested fof obstructing the side walk and neglecting to obey the policeman when told Xo move, besides offering some 'chin music'' in addition. The Mayor sentenced him to pay the costs of the court. . The recent freshet in the river extends up in the Black and South rivers in Sampson and Bladen counties and as s consequence some. 2,000 barrels of lur pentine arrived here last night and to day. , Mayor Fishblate was suddenly called from the city yesterday to ajttend Bladen court, and during nis aoseuce iiueriuau Toilers will act as Mayor. j Hotel Arrivals. j Pubceix House.

The most beautiful and fashionable oi naiueiit for the hair which has ' appeared during, the present season is the Greek band ia one, two pr more rows encircling the front ofthe head. This is the 'revival cjt a fashion which had a great vogue twenty-five1 years ago. ( They are popularly composed of jet, shell or ivory, but there are very costly ones of gold with pendants and others o wrought gold set with dia monds or peaii or 1 with rubies and dia monds. Velvet bauds are also appearing either black, cardinal red cr yellow, or white with jet stars, siars of turquoise or Of garnet. White ribbon band3 are very pretty for evening wear, with gold, silver or white ornaments set in like studs upon the ribbon. A very handsome set of bands in the triple style, is made of tortoise shell bound with gold. This shapes itself to the head in such a way as to admit ot drawing through the sections the small clustered or ringleted curls, with which it is now the ashiou to cover the top of the head. For very fair hair, to be worn with white dresses, particularly toilets of white silk or satin, double bands of white enamel are very much admired. In the direcyon of art ornamentation for the hair, in place of aow. rs, for which the present style of coif- ure affords little opportunity,' is the triple comb, which first appeared at the Vienna Exposition, but has never literally or met aphorically come to the front until within the past few mcnths. 1 he great a vat-tage of the triple comb is that it may be worn with the new bonnets, which consist of a coronet and two, bands, or yreathsiof dowerg, cr small shaded roses. 1 These tonnets have no frame, aid the triple comb acts i as a support as wellias ian ornament Lenoir County' Beef. Mr. Geo. F. Tilleyl at stall No 8 m the Market House, has just bought and brought to ' this market a lot of twenty beeves from Lenoir county.
