Mr, John O. Bailey, an old and highly
esteemed resident of this city, a .member
of the firm of Hart, Bailey & Co., died at
bis residence in this oity at half past 1
o'clock this morning of paralysis, in the
(i'll yeurai his age. Mr. Bailey had been
sick for some eighteen months past and
latterly h-d been considered as beyond
recovery and therefore his death was uot
unexpected. He was a native of Sweden,
tut for mere than a quarter of a century
bast bad resided in Wilmington. He was
l.a member of Cape Fear Lodge No. 2, I.

, Opera House.
Tho entertainment given at the Opera
Iou?e last evening, for the benefit of St.
John's Church, was exceedingly pleasant
and gave such general satisfaction that we
cloubt not that a repetition will be asked
for. . A large audieuce was in attendance,
and tbeir approbation was demonstrated
by the. frequent and prolonged encores.
The tableaux were well "conceived and
most admirably put upon the stage. Tbt
readihg of Shamus O'Brien, by Mr. Berry
G leaves, was fine and was weir received
Mrs. Kahnweiller sang several of her fa
vorite songs, and was compelled to answer
au encore. Mr. George Myers' rendition of
'The Fine Ould Irish Gintleman was
immense, and in answer to prolonged and
hearty encores, he sang a humorous
song ot his own composition.
The cornet duet played by Messrs.
ames W. Wilson and D. B. Mitchell
i
was excellent and the pieces played by
the Sextette Club were rerr ine. The
Wax Figures purchased from the estate of
the late lamented Mrs. Jar ley were fine
and added much to the other attractions
The entertainment was a complete success
and Mr. G'eaves should feel bitnself
amply repaid for the trouble to which he
had been placed in getting it up. Bat
o$e more word. Let's have it again.

on the streets in Columbia, S. C, tbat
the W. A; W. R. R. and W. O. & A. R.

R. Companies are about to purchase the
Green villend Columbia R. R., which,
conmencing at Colembia, runs through

This line will give Wilmington easy

able management of Mr. A. Pope, the
Gtneral Freight Agent of the two roads
above mentioned, wilkdevelope a nice

ln the event of the consummation o
this trade, as suggested by t,he rumor rr
(erred tb above, we ras j txpeet to see our
foreign cotton trade, by direct shipment,
largely increased. Wilmington is cer
tsialy capable of handliog a large amount
of cotton for foreign sjhipment. We have
three of the finest eclton presses any
wbere at work on the South Atlantic
Coast, and! besides the.e we have other

The following tribute to the memory of
Dr.- Langdon was paid at a meeting of
the Stockton City Council :
Mr. Oallahan said an event had occur
red in Stockton to day that carried sad
ness to many hearts. A man, a member
of the medical profession, a man ef dis
tinguished ability,a man of broad eharity
and disinterested benevolence, a man of
noble attributes of character, a good citi
zsn, had taken his farewell of terrestrial
scenes. He referred to the death of Dr.
Samuel Langdon. Mr. Oallahan paid an
eloquent tribute to the memory of the de
ceased gentleman, and thought it wenld
be appropriate . for the Council to take
some official action in recognition of the
prominent vlrtuss and eminent services
of a representative man and a distin
guisbed citizen. He moved that a com
mittee of five, including the Mayor, be
appointed to draw ud and submit to ths
next Council, appropriate resolutions of
respect to toe memory ox Lr. Langdon.
He desired that the Council would at
least pay to the memory of the deceased
that compliment. The motion to appoint
a committee was put to the Council and
carried without a dissenting voice. j
The Mayor appointed Couocilmen
Oallahan, Baggies, jpanlsell and Cht
