More Horse Stealing.
The stealing of horses from the stables
on the Sounds and driving them to this
city soems to be very general. It is not
confined to any particular Sound or locali
ty, but seems to have spread along the
coast from Topsail to-Myrtle Grove.
Yesterday a gentleman residing on Mason
boro Sound had occasion to leave his
home about 4 o'clock in the morning for
this city and when within about two
miles of the Sound he came upen a col
ored boy driving a horse, tho property of
one of the summer residents, back to the
Bound. It was quite dark and the boy
was either asleep or drunk and came near
driving into the gentleman. The horse,
which was a grey, was easily identified
The driver does not know even now who
saw him, but there can ba no doubt but
that tho boy had stolen the horse and
driven him to town and was returning to
the Sound with him after a night's de
bauch in the city.
The Game of Multiplication.
The 'game of multiplication is an
ingenious device, designed to mak3 the
study of the multiplication table 'a pas
time. 'The Idea came to Mrs Foole, of
Boston, last fall during the illnes3 of her
young daughter, and it has resulted in
a gamo which is not wholly unlike the
13 14 15 puzzle in appearance, but
i unlike it in the fact that it is intended
for young school cbildreu, and can al
ways be worked to a practical solution,
whilo it affords amusement and clears
away the horrors of multiplication. The
apparatus consists of a thin tray about
12 inches square containing 12 smaller
trays one for each Uble. In each small
tray are 36 numbered blocks, arranged
in 12 lines, 3 in a line, the multiplier
occupying the first position in every line
the multiplicand the middle, and the
product the right. The gama is to dis
arrange tho blocks, taking one oat to
give an opportunity to movo the restf
and then move them about until all are

Hoard or Aldermen.
The Board of Aldermen met in called
s esioa at the City Hall yesterday after
noon, together with' the Board ct Audit
pnd Finance, for the purpose of receiving
the report of the Committee cn Water
Works
A'rnajority of the committee consist
ing of Mayor Fia blate. Dr. J. C. Walko.
er, Messrs. W. L. Smith, Alfred Martin.
B. M. Mclniire and B. F. Hall made
the following repoit, viz:
Board of Aldermen and Board of Aif
dit or the City of nilmincfton,
N.Cy
Gentlemen A maioritv of tho com
mittee ap'pointed from the Board ot Al
dermen, Board of Audit, Chamber of
Commerce, Commercial .bxchanee, Hoard
of Underwriters and Board of Trade, to
consider the expediency and practicability
of establishing a system of Water Works
for the city, have duly considered the
matter in all its various phases, and are
fully convinced of the daily iom-tsvjV
importance, and wo may . say -iui
late necessity of providing the city with a
more abundant and more certain supply
of water, as a protection against fire, and
as a sanitary measure of perfectly pur
water for domestic consumption.
Recent investigations have established
the faGt that a vast quantity of the water
consumed in the city is exceedingly impure
and therefore unhealthy, and as the popu.
lation increases, it must of necessity be
come more impure.
The thousand or more advantages of
such a system cannot here be enumerated,
but will be readily apparent to every one
who will seriously consider the subject.
We have examined the reports of a number
of municipalities where such works have
baen in operation for years, and some es
tablished more recently, and without fur
ther preliminary remarks cheerfully re
commend the proposition of Mr. A. Wil
kins and associates, who have recently
completed a system of works in Charleston
South Carolina, for your adoption, which
proposition is embraced in the paper here
unto annexed.
Respectfully submitted,
S.. H. Fishblate, Mayor,
Wm. L. Smith,
Ch'm'n Board Underwriters..
R. M. McIntibe,
President Board of Trade.
Alfeed Maetin,
Chamber of Commerce.
The committee submitted with their re
port a proposition from Mr. Wllkins.'
At the suggestion of Alderman Divine,
the Mayor requested Mr. D. McRaeto give
the Board any information he might have
in regard to water works. Mr. McRae
spoke briefly, recommending that the mat
ter bo deferred ; or rather, that action
should not be hastily taken.
Mr. A. H. VanBokkelen, by request,
gave his views on the subject. He recom
mended that the water works should be
resolved upon, but was opposed to haste
in the matter, anH thought that it should
ba postponed until propositions could be
had from other pai tics.
Col. W. L. Smith, of the Committee,
said he favored the report and opposed
dela7, for the reason that all his life be
had heard water works talked of, but the
matter had always been postponed and
never beard of again. Ho desired to have
water works and wanted them immedi
ately; the proposition of Mr. A. Wilkios
he thought a fair one, and tho best ever
made to the city.
Alderman Myers suggested that Mr.
Wilkios be allowed to mcko a statement.
Mr. Wilkios came forward and stated
that he had just completed water works
in the city of Charleston, and stated the
condition of bii contract with that city,
and thought bis proposition to this city a
moro liberal one.
On motion of Aldeim3n Foster further
consideration of tho matter was deferred
until the third Monday in October next,
fordefinilo action.
Mr. Wilkins, by permission, withdrew
his proposition, and on motion the meets
ins adjourned.

The Coanlrj Saicd Greenbackera In
Council.
Some twenty five or fitty persons,
calling themselves Oreenbackers, met la
the Court House this morning for the
purpose, as alleged, of making nomina
tion for county ofilcers from tae rants ol
the Greenback party. Captain Frank M.
Wootea was called to the Chair and
HarryThomaa appointedSecretary. When
our reporter reached the scene of action
a committee, appointed fcr the purpose,
had retired to make the nominations
which were to be submitted to the con
vention. In the mean time the . meeting
was being entertained by C. H. Strc le,
Greenbacker. and C. P. Lock?y,
Republican, exchanging epithets of the
vilest character, denouncing each other in
unmeasured terms, and swearing ven
geance against each other if they
could only be let alone and

get together. Strode seemed to
be the most belligerently inclined of the
two and was making great demonetra

time of th:s writing there have been no
nominations. Tna committee were still
