WILMINGTON. N. C, SATURDAY, MAY 25, 1878.
Organization of the Memorial Asso
elation of the 5on-Cocimlsstoncd
OHfern and Privates of the Third
Aorth Carolina Infantry.
The surviving non-cominissioaed ofii-
cor8 and privates of the Third N. C. In
fntrv met at the Citv Courtroom last
j - - rf
night for the purpose of organizing them
selves into an association to be known as
the Memorial Association of the Third N.
C. Infantry. i j
Upon motion of J M. King, Col. Wm.
L. DeRosset was requested to take the
Chair. Col. DeRos-et, upou assuming the
Chair, thanked the meeting for the. honor
conferred and stated that the movement
about to be inaugurated was one that he
had lonsr desired to see. . and it was a
movement that he felt the deepest inter
est in. But inasmuch as this was intend
ed to be an organ ization of the , non
commissioned officers and privates, he
thought it more fitting that one of their
own number should be called upon to
preside, but assured them most earnestly
of his entire sympathy and promised them
his hearty cooperation. "
Col. DeRosset was then excused. Serg't
Alex. Wiggs was elected permanent Presi
dent and Sergeant F. V. B. Yopp, Vice
President and Corporrl Jno. D. Pugh,
Secretary. Committees were appointed to
dra a Constitution and By-Laws for the
Society, and also to jaotify members not
then present, of the organization, and
Urge their attendance at the next meeting.
Capt- A. L. DeRosset being called upon,
delivered himself of a very happy little
impromptu speech. He told the meeting
thatjthis organization was an absolute ne
cessity to preserve the truth of history, that
the children of the members of th's Regi
ment studied in the schools, kistoiies that
wer ewritten in Yankee-land,by prejudiced
Yankee writers ; that from such books,
our ch:!dren would never learn of the un
told hardships endured by their fatheis
during those four long,, weary years of war.
Capt. DeRosset wai heartily applauded at
the conclusion of bis ; speech, and then
Rev. Dr. Patterson, Chaplain of the Regi
ment, 'was called upon and replied by tell
ing the members in a few very appropriate
remarks that he was glad to see the organ
ization beguni promised them his hearty
co-operation in the ' good work, and felt
sure that he could say the same for a'l the
other officers of the Regiment. Col. Cant
well and Adj't. James, being called upon,
said in substance that they could add
nothing to what had been said and so well
said, except to add their endorsement to all
thtt had been said and done.
On motion of J. M. King, a vote of
thanks was tendered to Capt. H; C. Brock
for the use of the City Court Room.

Carolina Yacht Club.
At the meeting of the Carolina Yacht
Club, held last evening, Capt. I. B. Grain
ger was .unanimously elected Commodore
of the Club to fill the vacancy caused by
the death of Mr. Wright, and Mr. .George
D. Parsley was elected to h vacancy
thus made in the Governing Board. ,
. The matter of a cruise this summer by
the entire squadron was "proposed, ; dis
cussed and adopted and the Commodore
of the Club was requested to go order it.
Several additions were made to the
membership at this meeting.
: i City Court
A. ice Kelly, one of the f soiled doves
from the refined j re:incts of Paddy's Hol
low, fluttered away from the - Hollow last
night and flew . as high as Front street
when her further progress was Arrested
by officer Williams who. stopped her in
her flight, owing to her very sad plight,
she being very much overcome with John
Barleycorn and quite' celsy to boot. The
poor unfortunate was carried to the guard
house and this morning Mayor Fishblate
said she must pay $5 fine or stay five days
in the City Prison.
This being all the business before this
august tribunal, His Honor stepped down
and out for the day. t .

Battalion Parade.
The Fifth Battalion, (col) N. C. S. G.f
will parade on Thursday next for inspec
tion and review, under command ot Geo.
L. Mabson, Lieutenant-Colonel. ! Two
companies from Fayetteville and one from
Charlotte are expected to be in ! line with
the Wilpington companies on that day
, Coitoin House Appointment.
Mr. James Heaton has received an ap
pointment in the Custom House of this
city to take effect the first proximo. The
appointment came from Washington City
where he has been for several day. He
diaclams any offer or acceptance of : bribe
Bioney offered to him to withdraw from
the political candidacy of the present day.
The Alarm of Fire-
Shortly after 2 o'clock this afternoon
a small frame house on. Fourth between
Orange and Dock streets, nearly opposite
the residence of Mr. Geo. R. French,
was discovered to be on fire. The alarm
was immediately sounded, but the fire was
extinguished by persons in the neighbor
hood before the engines could reach the
spot. i
The fire originated between the ceiling
and the., weatherboarding on the north
side of the house. The only theory ad
vanced as to the probable cause of the
origin of the fire that -we have . heard is
that rats must have carried matches in
between the ceiling and in some way ig
nited them. This would seem strange, too,
inasmuch as the building is unoccupied.
There was no material damage done the
property. The building belongs to Mr
Edward Kidder. i !
Excursion and Return of Thank s.
j The ladies of the Dorcas Socitety of St.
Paul's Evangelical Lutheran Church des
sire to return I their sincere thanks to
Capt. Paddison, of the steamer North
East, for hisggentlemahly attention on the
excursion yesterday, also to Mr. E. Ham-
me, the owner of the plantation, and to
Mr. Stevenson, the occupant, for their per
mission to use the house and grounds,
and to Col. C. L. Grafflin, for his kind
i
exertions in their behalf. The excursion
was a decided success in every respect.
The grown folks, as well as tho children,
enjoyed rambling about in the shady
grove which sui rounds the house, or in
partaking of the "good things of life,'
provided by experienced caterers. But,
what is better still quite a handsome sum
was realized, the full amount of which is
not yet definitely known. 1 .
The Radical Convention.
The show at theCourt House to day has
been in full bloom ever since 10 o'clock
and as yet there has been not only no
organization, but the claims of the various
delegations have not as yet been disposed
of. Speechifying seems to have been the
order of the day and thus business is re
tarded. ! About sunset, it is thought, the
Convention will be organized and some
hours later the nominations are looked
for. There have been some rich scenes
there to-day and money, it is said, has
been spent pretty freely by those who
have it to spend. i
