Some who had never been tnere before were among the most successful. Marriages are not plenty enough. The young ladies ought to get up a strike for their altars. The strike for the fires can come -in afterward, when the question of building therh comes up. The dunned man can no longer hide his do vert v bv savins "I haven't the change now; bring that bill around some other time." Those of our citizens who "haven't the change now" are indeed to be pitied, for there seems to be no other kind of money in the country.

The fine steamer Wave, after an ab sence of several weeks at Fayetteville, whither she has been undergoing repairs, has again put in an appearance at this port, but so altered and changed in ap pearance that her old friends and owners scarcely recognised hi. By Invitation of Mr, G. W. Williams, one of the agents ot the Express Steamboat Company at this end of the line, we made a visit of inspection on board of the refitted steamer this morning,and found that a vast number of improvements had been cqale in every department of the boat. In the passen ger apartments there are a great many new improvements that will add to the creature comforts of those who may take passage on the Wave. The ladies' cabin is 4han4sowely and comfortably fixed, with a nice, Brussels carpet on the floor, and we understand is to be furnished with elegant furniture. The gentlemen's cabin is also comfortably and cosily fixed, and is separated entirely from tne gentlemen's sitting and smoking room, wdiqo we ueueve is quite a feature. new The upper decks of the steamer have been widened so as to afford passengers a better opportunity for a promenade on each side of the boat. In addition to the ac commodations for passengers in the ladies' cabin and in the gentlemen's cabin, which are ample, there are a bo State Rooms which those who are first to apply can be accommodated with. The old engine of the steamer has been supplanted by entire ly new machinery with a fourteen4nch cylinder, having "a fourfoot stroke." With this powerful engine, the clever and courteous Commander, Capt. Robeson, expects to pass everything on the river. And with two such fine boats as the TVate and Ifurchison, with two such clever Cap tains as G arras on and Robeson, the Ex press Steamboat Company expects to get a full shareof freight and passengers. This is Ithe longest day of the year. ; " V FRIDAY, JUNE 21, WILMIXGTOX LIGHT IXFAXTRY Celebration of the Twenty-Firth AunL Tersarr- Yesterday the Wilmington Light In fantry celebrated its twenty-filth anniver sary, which had been postponed from the 20th ol May, by an excursion to Smith ville on the steamer J. 6'. Vnderhill. 1 ne day opened propitious and at an earl3T hour the armory of the eompany was astir with busy preparation f'r the day' pleasure. At half-past eiht o'clock the' order was given to "fall in" whon the company was formed and marched down to the steamer accompanied by a delegation from the Veteran Corps. Shortly after leaving the dock the upper deck was cleared and soon to the music of the irrepressible Miles Howard assisted by two members of the "harpers" " Hearts beat happily, and when Music arose with its voluptuous ew.ell, Soft eyea looked love to eves which spake again, And all wont merry as a marriage-bell." And not only did the young gentlemen of the company enjoy the pleasures of the dance, but some of tie silver-haired Vete rans aud staff officers of the N. C. S. G-, who were also of the par'yv took. a hand top and enjoyed themselves' fight heartily, giving evidence' that the fires of youth were not extinct, but that they still "Love to go and mingle with the younjj In the gay festal-room when every heart Is beating faster than the tune." The dancing was kept up at intervals during the run down to JSmithville, which occupied between three and four hours. Arriving at Smith ville preparations were immediately made for the tai get shooting. Three prices were t.u be coutended for first, a silver butter dish, second, a silver" syrup pitcher, and third a silver cup. These prices were a present from Capt." Charles' D. Myers, or rather to fill a promise ho had made the company in the event of their winning the champion flag at the late State Fair, which they did. The shooting was done by numbers, each member having his number drawn by lot. The distance was ' 100 yards, and resulted in Mr. Owen McR. HolmeB wining the first, Mr. R. H. Grant the second and Mr. W. O. Farrow, the third prize. The scores of the winners were very good, that of Mr. Holmes being 12 out of a possible 15. Messrs. Grant and Farrow tied on 10, out of a possible 15, which being shot over, single shot, the former was declared entitled to the second prixe, making 4 out of a pos sible 5, the latter scoring 8 out of a pos sible 5. After the shooting for the prizes was over the Veterans took a shot and Capt. H. B. Willis made the best score. The party immediately re-embarked and started on the homeward trip, when the successful contestants were called up on the npper deck where the prizes were presented by Mr. F. H. Darby in a few well chosen remarks, the first prize being accepted by Mr. J. I. McRee very grace fully for .Mr. Holmes, Messrs. Grant and Farrow receiving their own prices in ap propriate speeches. The delivery of the prizes being over, Col. Wm. L. DeRosset, Capt. Charles D. Myers, Dr. Thomas B. Carr and Capt. H. B. Willis, being called npon, entertained the company with short, but very interesticg remarks. Notwithstanding the shades of night were overspread the "mazes of the giddy dance" were again indulged in until the boat reached the city at about 9 o'clock. Taken all together the anniversary waa a decided success. Every one whe participated expressed themselves as hav log enjoyed the day thoroughly, and 11 parted with many wishes for the future success and prosperity of the Wilmington. Light Infantry. Consumption Cored. An old physician, retired from practice, navmg had placed in hia bands by an East India missionary the formula of a simple vegetable remedy, for the speedy and permanent cure for consumption, bronchitis, catarrh, asthma, and all throat and lung affections, also a positive and radical cure for nervous debility and all nervous complaints, after having tested its wonderful curative powers in thousand of cases, has felt it his' duty to . make it known to his suffering fellows. Actuated by this motive, and a desire to relieve hu man suffering, I will send, free of charge, to all who desire it, this recipe, with full directions for preparing and using, in German, French, or English. Sent by mail by addressing with stamp, naming this paper. -v W. W. Sherar, 149 Powers' Block, Rochester, New York, je 18-4 w. 1878. NO. 120 j City Court- !
