A wash of fifteen or twenty drops of
common carbolic acid in ' a half pint of
water will Immediately relieve the smart
of mosquito bites, hives, prickly heat, and
all irritations of tbe skin common to sum
mer. As the strength of carbolic acid
commonly sold varies, the dilutions should
be tested before using by wetting a small
spot of skin. If it causes any burning in
a moment or so it is too strong, and more
water must be added. The lotion was
recommended by a city physician as in
use at Bellevue hospital, and years of ex
peiience prore its benefit. Many rest
less nights and much suffering of children
might be avoided by this simple cure,
which has been safely used on very young
children.

ti y court.
Willis Drake, colored, the distinguish'
ed boot and shoe maker of Paddy's Hol
low, was up before the Mayor this morn
ing charged with being drunk and disor
derly. The defendant was arrested at
the instigation of his wife, who in her evi
dence before the Court this morning stated
that the prisoaer at the bar, who was her
husband, threatened her with violence and
raised an empty bottle to strike her with.
She also testified that the affectionate
father of her child was about to beat their
offspring. To all of which the defen
dant replied by saying he wanted to go
home, which remark he repeated several
times for the edification of the Court and
the Chief of Police, looking all the time
pretty wild out of his eyes. He was either
affecting a temporary aberration of mind,
or the Paddy's Hollow "pisen" that he
had been drinking left him in a "very un
settled delirous state. He further stated
that somebody bad been feeding
his 4 wife on cakes and candy
to take ber away from him.
Tbe Mayor said he would give him a home
for sixty days, thirty of which he could
charge to the assault and battery case, and
the remaining thirty for the resistance
offered the police, while carrying him to
the Guard House. I
The next case on d cket was a truly
rural individual who was found drunk,
and down on the streets. Being, the first
offence, he was admonished about a repe
ition of the same, ai.d then permitted to
depart in peace. j
John McCarthay, a young sailor lad of
about 18 summers, appeared at the bar as
the next case on docket, with an eye that
was pretty badly bruised, being black-and-
blue and nearly closed. He j was charged
with fighting last night in front of Brysonl
near tbe Hollow. When asked where he
hailed from, he said be was all the way
from Cork, Ireland. Tbe Mayor told him
$2 or three days in the C. V. The de
fendant went below, and this finished the
bus iness for the day.

A Bold Thief and a Lively Chase.
I. 1 1
A bold robbery was committed on
Front street in the crockery store of Mr .
A. A. Harjtsfield, about 11 o'clock this
morning, under the following circum
stances : Mr. Hartsfield was in the back
part of his store waiting on a customer
when he heard the rollers of a glass door
which encloses his plated silverware in
the front part of the store moved back
Attracted, by the noise he turned quickly
around, but only in time to see a colored
individual dart out ot the door with a box
in his hand. Dropping everything at tbe
instant, Mr. Hartsfield gave chase im
mediately, calling out lustily, however,
'Stop thief 1' the pursued and pursuer ran
up Front street to the corner of Princess
where the individual with the thieving
proclivities darted diagonally across Prin
cess street to the vacant lot just West of
Evans block and proceeded at full speed,
scaling fences as he went, nntil he reached
the stables of Messrs. P. L. Bridgers &
Co, just South of the Postoffice; here as
he was in the act of scaling the fence in
the rear of the latter named building, or
just as he landed on the other side of he
fence at the back door of the Postoffice,
he was grabbed by a son of Mr. Harts
faVd together with another young man
who had joined in the chase . and es
corted safely to the Guard House where
he was made to disgorge his ill-gotten
goods, which consisted of half a dozen
plated silver Knives, nalt a
dozen silver forks, half a dozen
table - spoons, besides other
articles amounting in value to the sum of
ten or twelve dollars. After reaching
the guard room the prisoner was noticed
to tear in pieces a bit of paper which be
had taken from his pocket and cram tbe
same into his mouth, which be com
menced masticating and endeavored to
swallow, but Janitor Poisson was a little
too quick tor him, and succeeded with
the assistance of others in throwing the
prisoner to tbe floor and then forcing him
to eject the bits of paper from his mouth,
which upon being put together were found
to be a discharge from the South Carolina
penitentiary, which the prisoner had ren
ceived from the Superintendent after
serving a term of two years upon the
charge of grand larceny. The fellow
gave his name as Melvin Moore. He is
about 25 years of age and elaims to be
originally from Augusta, Georgia. He
was locked up in a cell and will await an
interview with the Mayor at half-past 9
o'clock to-morrow morning, after which
we will tell our readers something more
about it.

Death or a Wilmington Lady.
Mrs. Jessie W. Noyes, a native and
for many years a resident of this city,
died very suddenly in New Ycrk on the
Qth inst., while on a visit to friends
there. Mrs. Noyea was a sister ot tbe
late J. A. McAusland, a few years prior
to the war1 special Magistrate in this
city.and the mother of RevL Yictor Noyes,
Rector of t. Alban's Church m New
York. She died at quite an advanced age.
When a young !iady Mrs, Noyea, then1
Miss McAusland, was celebrated for her
beauty and accomplishments, a fact which
more than one of the old residents of
the city will remember.

I This distinguished actor will make his
initial bow bef jrej a Wilmington audience
at the Opera House to-night, in his origi
nal melodrama entitled "Unknown."
Mr. Stevens is ab.y supported by the
well-known actress, Miss Lottie Church;
assisted by a corps of artists selected for
the individual merit. The Compauy have
been with Mr. Slleens tor two sea
sons, and the pres3 pronounce it one
of tbe finest organizations now jtravel
ing. The play is one of great interest.
abounding in situations of
thrilling kind;;the language is
xhe most
pure and
beautiful, full of sentiments well inter
spersed with comedy. Mr. Stevens !ran
this play for five weeks in New York City
and the Herald states the following: '
Thejplot of 'Unknown,' conceived by
Mr. Stevens, i8 entirely original and pow
erful, the language exquisite, the character-painting
masterly,1 tne many incidents
follow each other quickly and naturally,
and the climaxes are of intense interest.
It at once places Mr. Steven?
in the front rankiof American authors
a position he has long held as an actor.
.The Company are now on the way to
New Orleans where they open at the AGad
emy of Music, Oct 2G. Seats are sellin"
rapidly, and we trust Mr. Stevens and
his company will be greeted with a crowd
ed house tonight.
Bishop Atkinson iu charlotte,
Tbe Charlotte Observer 6peaks as fol
lows ot the visit to St. Peter's Church in
that city, on Sunday last, of the venerable
Bishop. Atkinson, of this city:
As usual on occasions when Bishop
Atkinson makes his visitations, to the
Episcopal congregation in Charlotte, St.
Peter's church" was filled Sunday by an
assemblage in which all Protestant de
nominations in the city were represented.
The distinguished preicber who "has so
endeared himself to the people of North
Carolina by his broad Christian charity,
Sim pie eloquence and winning manners,
does not appear to have lost one jot or
tittle of the vigor of earlier years, although
old age now creeping upon him has be
gun to leave a few marks on his benig
nant face. His sermons Sunday morning
and evening were of that practical and
suggestive sort, which applying to every
day life cannot fail to make men better
It is not the members of bis Church alone
who sincerely wish that his life may be
spared many years for the continuance of
the work in which none have been more
faithful and few more efficient.
A meeting is to be held this evening
at Fifth Street M. E. Church for the
purpose of organizing Youn Men's
