WILMINGTON, N. C, MONDAY OCTOBER
Major Robbing Speech
The Hon. Wm. M. Robbius, pursuant
to pnblisbed notice, and in acco dance
with tbe expressed desires of tbe -State
Executive Oommittec, and Congressional
Exfcutivo Committee of this district, ad
dressed the Democratic voters 'of Wi!
mi rig ton on Saturday niht, frooi ihi I a -cony
of tbe Western Uuba Telegraph
office on Front Street. Tho distinguished
gentleman was introduced by Mr. F. H.
Darby, tbe Chairman of the Democratic
Executive Committee of this city, in a
ery appropriate naujuer The porch or
balcony fronT whence Mr. RobbinY de
livered hi speech was illuminated wiih
Chinese lanterns overhead, while behind
in the back y round was tbe National en
sign and beneath on the body of the
porch were tho names of Ilancock and
English affixed to another fLig, the Stars
aud Stripes. But the noise and confusion
incident to a Saturday night, down
town, were very annoying te the speaker
causing him much embarrassment at
times. But notwithstanding tbe natur6
of the surroundings, we consider that
Major Bobbins delivered himself of a first
class stamp speech, andoue that was cal
culated to do a great deal of good iu this
section. The speaker's arguments were
plain and practical, forcible and to the
point. He appealed to the Greenbacker
who was opposed to the domination of
the Republican purty and showed him
most conclusively that his vote at this
election for any other than a Democratic
candidate was but a vote to
keep the Republicans m power.
Some of the speaker's illustrations were
both happy and amusing; we have buj
space here for one. lie said that tbe
country had grown sick under Republi
can misrule and the better to illustrate bis
idea, he cited the instance of a man when
he was taken with a chill, the blood left
the hands and feet and flowed to the cen
ter of the body where it all congregated,
and left the extremities cold and without
warmth of any kind. But wliat was to
be done to relieve the system under such
circumstances? Why, the proper remedies
were. applied to diffuse the blood through
the entire system once more and let each
organ perform its proper function as was
intended by nature. Now, continued the
speaker, under the system of taxation
carried on by tho Republican party which
has had control of the government for
twenty years, the iLoney from the inter
nal revenue collections and other taxation
has been draining tbe country and con
centrating it at the center. The country
has got a congestive chill, and what it
needs more than all else to restore it to
its proper condition is-a little Democratic
quinine and then' we will see new life
and health imparted to the body politic
and the" center of government will no
longer absorb all the' money and control
it as is done now, but it will be diffused
and sent throughout the land and give a
warmth and vigor to all sections of the
country. There will be no need oi Green
back parties then. This wi3 only one of
many illustrations which were all happy
and humorou9,that the able speaker made
use of. Tbe speech made a good impres
sion and we are inclined to think had a
happy effect.

Circular Letter No 175.
Tb.3 following, which we clip from the
New York World of last Friday, will be
found of general interest here amoDg the
merchants on Water street:
At a regular meeting - of the Board of
Managers of tbe New York Produce Ex
change, held yesterday,in accordance with
the report of tbe Committee on Trade on
the communication recently received from
the Wilmington (N. C.) Produce Exw
change, the following resolution was
adopted:
" Whereas. The movement of American
produce from the United States to other
countries is increasing year by year to a
remarkable degree, whereby the resources
of this country -are being developed in
every direction, and
"Whereas, it is of the utmost impor
tance to tbe producer to know just what
demand exists for the several articles of
American produce as well as the source of
such demand, information which can only
be gained through the clearances of vessels
at the several ports, and
"Whereas. The JS'ew. York Produce Ex
change has learned with regret that access
to custom no use returns has been aemea
the WilmiDgto i Produce Exchange by
virtue of circular letter No. 173, issued to
collectors of customs by the Treasury De
partment under date of December 15, 1879
in whica collectors are, upon written re
quest of a shipper or consignee, author
ized to withhold from publication for
ninety days statistics relating to the im
portation or shipment of any particular
merchandise imported or shipped by them,'
and I while compliance on the:part of said
collectors of customs districts with the last
clause of said Treasury Department circu
lar letter can only bo of benefit to
speculators or the few who may be desir
ous of controlling certain markets to the
great injury of the general commerce and
tiade ol the country ; therefore,
"fiesolced. That this Exchange, whose
merchants represent the exporting inter
est of the country to a very large degree,
deprecate the adoption of any measure
by the uovernmem wnicn snau tend to
the personal benefit of tbe few to whom
such information is known at th? expense
of many from whom it is withheld, and
they therefore respectfully but earnestly
request tha honorable Secretary of the
Treasury to withdraw the authorization
contained in the last clause of this letter
and in its stead to give instructions to
the several collectors of customs to ofter
the fullest and freest possible access to
all returns of exports and imports not in
consistent with the performance of their
official duties."

statement made by us on Saturday. He
says that his ship takes out 1,150 bales,
instead, of 1,100, as wo had it, and further
more, iu reference to the comparison made
by us between loading 'here and at Savan
nah, he says that when the Theodor sailed
from Savannah sha 'had nothing in the
cabin, nothing in the poop aud sothlng
in the forecastle, whereas these are now
allClled. Capt. Danielsen was not with
the ship at the time, and cannot, therefore
tell us how many bales she took out from
Savannah.

Dr. Patterson's Farewell.
There was a very large congregation
present last night in St. John's church to
hear the farewell sermon delivered on that
occasion by Rev. George Patterscn.D. D.,
tb.3 Rector of tho Parish. We believe
that there wero present members from
every white congregation in the city, with
one exception, an evidence of the esteem
iu which tha reverend gentleman has
basn held among our citizens generally,
irrespective of denominational differences'
Dr. Patterson was assisted in ; the con
duct of the exsrcise3 by Rov. T. M. Am
bler,Rector of St. .'Paul's and Rev. Daniel
Morrelle.
Dr. Patterson has been Rector of St.
John's for something mora than ten years
past, sinca April, 1870. Daring that
time he has seen many changes. Many
new laces have come upen the scene and
many of the most esteemed members cf
the church have been laid to rest. During
his discourse last night hs alluded to these
things and stated (we quote from memory)
that during the period of his ministra
tions he had baptized over 300 children
aud 72 adults; had read the burial ser
vice over the remains of 154 persons
had solemnized 50 marriages and had
presented 140 candidates for confirma
tion. The congregation part with Dr. Pat
terson with great regret. He has labored
with them long and faithfully; has shar
ed in their sorrows and joys and has
been to thsm a tru3 aud earnest friend as
well as a spiritual guide, and teacher He
resigned the charge of St. John's for the
purpose of accepting an invitation to
travel and solicit for tho endowment fand
for the University of tbe South, at Sew
anse, Texa3, He will not leave the dio-ces-,
however, and will retain. Wilming
ton as his home. He cviii serve at St.
John's next Sunday but expects a sum
mons during the following week to at
tend a meeting of the Board of Trustees
of tho University of tbe South, of which
he is a member, to be held in New York
during the sitticg of tbe General Con?
vention.
