Dr, Bu 18 Cough Syrup. i Till great need of the country just now is not polictics, but an overhauling ot last summer's waistcoats. An Icwa pickle factory wants 200,000 cabbage heads. This will clean out a good many printing offices. The mothei'a heart swells with pride when her baby begins to pedestrianize at the age of nine months. We are pleased to learn that Mr. J. W. Thompson has so far recovered as to be able to get eut of the heuse a little. ( ; , There was no 0 ity Court to-day, and right fortunate it is that there are no more candidates for the lock-up, for the Guard Bouse is full now to overflowing. Dooley'b YriasT Powder is prepared on scientific principles, and from ingred ients that axe the most effective and wholesome. It has received the highest encomiums for these merits from eminent chemists, scores of cur best - physicians and thousands f intelligent cooks and housewives. The genuine can be had only in tin cans. We thank our frjend "De Facto," at Laurinburg, for his 'communication, re ceived this morning, but as we have al ready published full reports of the matter, identical in fact with that he sends, we have concluded not to insert his com munication. Will be glad to hear from him again, however, and often. - 1 Privileged Class, And still the hucksters ply their trade. They have increased, grown saucy and are getting fat. You can't buy a turnip or a potato or a cabbage or a peck of peas now from first hands. The huck sters control everything; they pay no taxes, either to State, county r city, and are the most privileged class on the face of this green earth. Tha Board of Alder men have been appealed to in vain. They will not touch this privileged class with so, much as a forty -foot pole. Down Goes the Lager. A dray going . up Chestnut street thi$ morning loaded with kegs of lager beer must have concluded that the load was too much for the mule who was hauling it for, when nearly at Front street, about half the load started from the dray down the hill as I if in search of the Rock Spring. But they scattered them selves around the street, seemingly as much lost in the fog as to the locality of that famous watering place as some of those who are trying to locate the same through the columns of the press. Attend to Them There is a true but trite sajing, "what's everybody's business is nobody's busi Less," verified in this city as regards the line of trees iu the centre of Market street which were set out a year or two ago. Most of them are alive and are doing well, but many are bent and twisted out cf shape, and now the entire row looks as though some one had been playing cross-sticks with them. A very little time and work woulJ straighten them up and relieve the street of that look of utter H 1 neglect which it now wears. Cannot the city authorities attend to i the matter and keep the trees up? Style, elegance, location, moderate prices, and choice of either the American plan $2 50 to $3.00, or the European plan $1.00 per day, and upwards, meals iu the elegant restaurant attache 1 to the house, all unite in giving the traveller more for the same money, at the Grand Osntral Hotel, New York, than else where. Daily WILMINGTON, N. C THURSDAY, APRIL Ready for Service. The steamer Clinton, which Jas been up for repairs at the wharf of Messrs Skinner & Lyon for the past few days, has been put in complete order and will resume her trips to Bannerman's Bridge and Chinquepiu on the Northeast river to-morrow. Col. Alexander Resign. Col. VV. C. Alexander, says yesterday's Charlotte Observer, yesterday sent iu his resign -it iou as Colonel of the Second Regi ment of the North Carolina State Guard, to take effect immediately. Col. Alexan der's action is based upon a preference to be with his old company, the Charlotte Grays, of which he was captain at the time of his first election to the colonelcy ot the regiment. He has made an efficient and popular officer, and h g retirement will be generally regretted. The Regi ment will b under the command of Lieut-Colonel A H. Worth, of Fayette ville, until the vacancy caused by Col. Alexander's resignation shall be filled by another election, which must be ordered by the Adjutant General That Ox and Watch. Some time ago, a gentleman living near North East, in this ceunty, sold an ox te a colored man on credit, with the under standing that the aforesaid ox should be paid for by a certain time and in default of payment the 'creeter' should revert to its former owner. Time passed on, and the whole payment was not made. Subsequent to the sale of the ox, the colored man pawned his watch and got the gentleman to redeem it for him on the same terms on which the ox was sold. At the solicitation of the gentleman, Justice Grady, of Cape Fear township, issued a claim and de livery process, and delivered the property. The cok-red man came to this city and sued out a warrant before Justice Hall charging the gentleman with trespass, and claimed that he had no right to the ox and watch, pleading the statue of limitation om him. The case will have a preliminary hearing and probably be carried te a higher court, and we are in hopes of its being as fruitful a sourse for 'locals' as was the ox Ci.se before the court some two years age. School Teaehef also- of Bond. Wellington H. Boyette had a prelimi, nary hearing in four cases this morning, and in default of two hundred and fifty dollars justified bond, he was committed to jail. He will be brought before Justice Gardner this afternoon for examination in three other cates. During the trial it transpired that Bcyette was a school teacher as well as church rebber, "com mission merchant" general utility man and school house thief. He is about twenty-four years of age, dark mulatto with a low forehead vid looks as though he was not up to mediocrity as to mental qualities, but as a kleptomania, he is a success. He offered no defence and dur ing the examination of witnesses his face wore a sickly smile. Boyette was evi dently the leader of a gang of thieves who have forsaken him . in his troub! e, to shield themselves, but it may be that their chieftain will "less up" and pull them as deep in the mud as he is in the mire. Llpplncotf s Magazine. Lippincott's Magazine for May opens with a brilliantly written and finely illus trated paper, by Mrs. Sarah Butler Wis ter, which propounds and answers one question, 'Why do we like Paris?' In an other illustrated paper 'From Norway to York' H. M. Rohiaeon describes graphically canoe travel and transporta tion in the territory of the Hudson Bay Company. 'The Tramp in Four Cen turies' is a close but somewhat enigmatU cal study of a class which is commonly supposed to be a modern innovation, but which is here shown, on the evidence of curious unpublished letters, to have made its appearance on every occasion of social and financial revolutions. My Hero' gives a very striking account of the career of General Paez, 'the first lance in the world,' by one who knew him per sonaliy while president of the Venezuelan Republic. Miss Annie Porter continues her graphic sketches of Village Life in Louisiana;' Nathan Clifford Brown des cribes 'Beach-Birds;' giriog special atten tion to such as are rarest and least known. and Mrs. Hooper has an interesting ac count of Cardinal Richelieu a first and only appearance as a dramatis anther and stage-manager. The serial and short stories are of the usual excellence; but many readers will find nothing so enter taining as the 'Gosdp which is full of bright and amusing talk, chiefly on 'society topics,' including a witty little dialogue en 'Proposals of Marriage.' , REVIEW. - Rainfall. The rainfall during the storm of yes terday and last night amounted to 1 89 inches up to 7 o'clock this morning. At Savannah, Ga., and Charleston, S. Cf toere was a much larger fall. Iu the former city it amounted to 3 inches in a period of 8 hours, and in the latter it reached 2 inches during the same time. Something New- i For the comfort of his customers C. H. Ward has fitted up his bar bear shop with new cane seated summer chairs which are said to be the firgt ever used in this city. He bas reduced his prices and keeps a dry shampoo and hair tonic which is said to be as good as ever used. His assistants are well known in this city. See adver tisement in another column. Shocked by Lightning. Last evening, about 7 o'clock, Pilot Thomas Garrison, who was bringing the Norwegian barque Ararat up the river, and three of the crew were knocked down by the shock of a flash of lightning which struck somewhere near the vessel, which was at the time in the vicinity ol the jetties. There is no evidence of the electric fluid having struck the vessel. The men were severely shocked and ap peared to "be dazed for some time after wards. One of the crew complained of his arms , saying they were "dead" and taav h'j had no control over them what ever. Commissioner's Decision. The following decision, in the case of the United States vs. John C. Willis, postmaster, for opening a letter, &c rendered by Commissioner Cant well, has been furnished vs for publication: 1. A person accused of crime is a com petent witness in his own behalf. Art. 16, March, 1878. Btome's case No. 10. 2. The law requires the testimony for the government to be such as to run ash a reasonable expectation of the defendant's conviction. 8. When the accused frankly acknowl edges he did the act, hut Offers an excuse for it which repels all criminal intent, and there appear no drcurastances showing temptation or guilty motive, he is era titled to be discharged upon satisfactory proof of his good character. Maj. C. M. Steadman appeared fc r the defendant. Complimentary Farewell- The complimentary farewell tendered to Mrs. A. Shrier on the eve of her de parture for Europe, took place in Ger mania Hall last night. Despite the un favorable weather the rooms were throng ed with cur Jewish citizens with their wives and daughters and the occasion all through, was pronounced unanimous ly as one of the most successful and most enjoyable known in the annals of our city. The ladies, among whom were many remarkably beautiful women, were all superbly dressed while tho gentlemen adorned themselves in the latest fashion able array and paid their devoted and un ceasing attentions to the gentler presence throughout the entire evening. The music, which, was rendered by the Italian Bands, was very fine and the dancing was kept up until this morning, when the day light had penetrated the hall and paled the lustre of the gas jets. It was 5 o'clock this morning when the (arty separated, even then with regret. Mrs. Shrier sails from New York on Saturday, May 10th, in the steamship Oder, of the Xorth German Lloyd line, for a visit to her parents in Brcmerhaven, both of who are yet alive, and neither of who has she seen in lourteen years. She will remain away some six months and during that time expects to make an ex tensive European tour. Mr. Shrier speaks of going on after her in July, to return with her about the middle of November American .Wines. But few persons are aware of the great amount of grapes raised in New Jersey.

It is or dered to London and Paris, where it is becoming very popular among wealthy families. For aale by J. C. Munds, P. L Bridgers & Co and Green & Planner Apl. l-2w A card.
