Orr, on Third, near the corner of Red Cross streets, was burglariously entered ' last n:ght and robbed of thirty cents and a five cent cut of chewing tobacco. The t aief effected an entrance through a side window, and after rummaging through the house and ransacking the bureau drawers and one or two trunks departed. Lie was evidently after money, as a va! uable watch and chain, which was taken out of the trunk, was laid carefully on the bureau. A jewelry case which contained quite a sum of money was taken oat of a trunk and thrown on the floor without being opened. Tbe burglar took up Mr. Orr'a clothes and after examining them, threw them back. On the lappel of the coat was pinned a piece vf-papet on which . was written, 'too mean', wont take em.' Mr. Orr is thankful for the con sideration sbown' him and promises at their next visit be wilt be prepared for thorn and respond warmly to (heir call.

An attempt was made last night to rot the ;d welling of Mr. Robert Orrell, on tbe corner of Third and Red Cross streetF. As the thief raised a window a colored woman who was sleeping in the hocpe called out "who's dat" and the thief beats hasty retreat. Persoaal. Gen. C. C. Auger and Paymaster Geo..

We have been aware for some time of the intention of our friend, Dr. W. T 'Ennett, to remove from Asheton, where he has for a number of years been located, to Burgaw, and by. postal, card received this morning we learn that the change has been effected, and that he may in the future be addressed at the latter place. Religious Kerald. We have received from the publisher j, 1115 Main Street, Richmond, Va,, a copy of the Religious Herald containing a likeness of tbe late Rev. J. B. Jeter, D D., together with an interesting account of his illness and deatb,jincluding memo rial addresses by Bishop Doggett, Dr. J. L. M . Curry, Dr. T. S. Dumaway and other. The paper will be mailed to any address upon receipt of ten cents by the publishers. Meaning of the Terms. Many are puzzled to understand what the terms 'fourpenny,' sixpenny' and Henpenny' mean as applied to nails. 'Fourpenny' means four pounds to the thousand nails, or 'sixpenny' means six pounds to Uie thousand, and so on. It is an old English term, and means 1 at first Hen pound nails (the thousand being un derstood), bat the old English clipped it to tenpun,' and from that it degenerated until 'penny' was substituted for pounds.' When a thousand nails weigh less than one pound they are called tacks,biads, etc. and are reckoned by ouncej. Dandruff eradicated, the scalp made clean,; and gray hair restored to i:s origi nal youthful beauty . and vigor by the use of Halis Vzgktablis Sicilian Hair Renewe'b. . City Court. Joseph Williams, alias Joseph Camp bell, a sable bued 'gemmen," was found by Mr; W. N. Bowden on his premis8 on the corner of Fifth and Chestnut streets last night, snugly ensconced in one oi the outhouses. Mr. Bowden im. mediately collared the individual and took him down to the Guard House. Upon all these facts being submitted to the Mayor this morning, His Honor said $20 or thirty days, and defendant went below. David Mallett, a frequent visitor at the Mayor's morning levee, was arraigned up on the charge of being drunk and down. The Mayor said five days and the prisoner was escorted to the C. P. This finished the docket and the Court adjourned. I " At omrarisou. I . It is impossible to say too much in praise of the management of the Wil mington & Weldon R. R., and we speak with no desire of fulsome praise but sim ply in a spirit of local self-pride. The Editor of this paper traveled over the Pennsyliania R.' R , from New York to Baltimore, on Wednesday, and yesterday he came down the Wilmington & Wel don Road. The comparison is in every way in favor of our road. It was a fast train and yet we were compelled te change cars twice between New York and Balti more, The schedule is only a few miles faster than ours and that, too, notwith standing tbe fact 'hat it is a doub e track, while tbe care are very infericr. We rode yesterday in a smoking-car on the Wil mington k Weldon R. R , that wa? rzuch superior in size, make, Shish and ease, to any first-class cr on tome of the big Northern reads. The Wilmington & Weldon ooah was. manufactured at the Company Shops in this ejty, An Old Han Restored to Health Batavia, N Y , Sept. 15, 1879. H. Hi Warner & Co , Rochestxb, N Y.

Uader the head of Sauitary Cor . dition of County Towns,' the question, 'lias there been any drainage in streets this mouth ?' 'Are any cUbrts being made toward improving the sanitapy condition of the town ?' Any improvement in con dition of Public Buildings ?' - The first Bulletin gives the reporls from 26 counties out of 94, and some of these are incomplete. Still we see how great is the labor involved, and know that it is no easy matter to get prompt return. We see furthermore that as these bulle tins get more and more complete, what a great aid it must be in giving our peo ple at home, and particularly those we are endeavoring to attract toward our State as settlers, a correct idea about matters in which they are bo greatly in terested, j ; J We hope the physicians of North Car olina are using their individual efforts to aid Dr. Wood in his laborious work. II they are waiting to see a success before they identify themselves with it, we think we can say truthfully that they may safely venture now, and thf-y will not regret having been among the pioneers In sanitary science. A Voice from SmlthYlUe Smithvelle, Feb. 26th, 1880. Editob Review: If we could only get our Reviw the same day it was print ed ; if we could be assured that we could always visit your city and return to our homes the same day ; if our friends in Wilmington could be enabled to come down and spend a few hours with us, and return, if they wanted to, the same day ; then we should be happy. Getting our Review the same day it was printed would keep us posted in the Democratic faithand doctrine, and we should consequently be wiser and more virtuous. Being able to visit the chief city of North Carolina conveniently, and at slight expense, would enable us to keep up with the fashions, and do all our shopping there instead of being forced to' do our shopping by mail in New York City, and would save the great expense now incident to the trip by being obliged to spend two days and nights, if we have much business to attend to. Enabling our friends in Wilmington to .- visit us ' frequently and return at their convenience, would promote their health and happiness and would be ex tremely pleasant for us alio. The accom plishment of these desirable things would also be among those wh eh Wilmington as a commercial city, should desire to pro mote. It would greatly beaefit one of the rouies which is a ft eder for the city, and would eventually build up a watering place to whiGh s the people of the sur rounding country, for hundreds of miles, would naturally come, passing through Wilmington, and spending much money there, on the way to the seaside. Strange as it may seem, all this can be accomplished without anybody spending a cent of money, and it is somewhat re markable that one man can do it. Our enterprising and genial friend, the agent of the fine and corrmodius steamer Pass- q t, holds the cards to win t is game; at least he does in the opinion, of this writer. ! ' Start fr m SmithviUe at 6 a. m.; leave Wilmington, cn the return trip at a. m ; leave SuiUbvilie at 1 p. m.i ana Wiiming'on, ou the return t?ip, at 5 p. m. ujasin twQ. regular trips each day, from the l&t cf May to tbe Istof Octo ber and one trip the remainder jot tbe year, uu!etg experience should prove that two tiips the whale year would pay better, and you lave the whole scheme in a nut shell. On the morning trip up, the stew ard of the Pa8?port would always provide an appet zing breakfast for tbe passengers, acd on the night trip down. a sumptuous repast of fifh, era b, shrimps and other luxuries, so that on their arrival they would be itfiue humor with themselves and all tbe world . Many of these pass engers would be so enamored with tbe delightful trip that they would invest in building lots in Smithvillv tud cot tages, a la Newport, weald spring up like magic; a large ana Tcommoaieca hotel, with aH the appcintmcats fr rri'rr p!re-r:r r- ! i f : " -1 -' ' - - - 27, 1880. NO. 14 of such a schedule, and the success of the steamer be placed upon a permanent and secure basis. It would be, for the interest of everybody, at both ends of the route, to give all their patronage and influence to this line, and it would be of great advantage to the commercial interests of WilmingtdD. The ras port is a fine teamer, well ffirered, and well managed. Sbe can make the 104 miles a day regu larly with entire ease. Let us take a new departure, and surround Wilmington with attractions. Your paper, Mr. Editor, will not be behind in advocating any scheme for building up and advocating the pros perity and happiness of our people. o c o n Physicians' Wine. New York physicians say that they have been using peer's Tort Grape Wine and Wine Bitters in their practice for years, to the entire satisfaction of their patients and themselves, and take great pleasure in recommend ing them to the public as being all that is claimed for them, and, in fact tbe most reliable they can find.

Fees ol Doctors, The fee of doctors in an item that very many persons are interestrd in just at present We believe the schedule for visits is $8 00, which would tax a man confined to, his bed for a year, and in need of a daily visit, over $1,00.0 a year for medical attendance alone!
