, There was a very cold wave yesterday
at the North which is sweeping South
ward to-day. Heavy faosta are predict
ed in the Southwest and the sugar crop
will suffer greaiy.
The commissioner of internal revenue
will in his forthcoming report recommend
the abolition of the stamp tax on mateb.es,
bank checks and proprietary medicines.
It. is understood that' the recommenda
tion will be concurred in by the Secre
tary of the Treasury. The receipts from
these sou ces are about $6 500,000,
A scheme for changing the cuaanel of
the St. Lawrence at Montreal, by build
ing an immense dike.at a cost of $7,000,

tages would be a still-water harbor, wa
ter power for mills, and the protection of
the lower part of the city against an
nual freshets.
About 30,000 tons of ice have been
brought from Norway and Sweden to
New York this season, where it is sold
at from $6 to $1 50 per ton, while the
domestic article has been as high as $20
per ton. The Norway ice is from four
teen to eighteen inches thick and as
transparent as glass.
The Republicans are still bulldozing
the Democrats in South Carolina. Two
white citizens were arrested yesterday at
Greenville, charged with frauds, and the
U. S. Commissioner who examines the
accused is a defeated candidate for Cenr
gress. "What a traversity is justice in
the hands of the Republicans!
Thev have organized a "National
Union Associat;on" in Providence, R. I.,
the object being to "assist in building
up a new party at the South; for the
establishment and m.aintainanee of free
public schools and labor and for the pro"
tection of the laws and rights of all
classes of citizens." These Ilhode is
landers forget that charity should begin
at home. 1
The Fayette ville Examiner, comment
ing on an article published recently in
the Review, relative -to cotton-seed oil
mills, has this to say :
The various uses "of the cotton plant
are beincr slowly developed. A. crop otsix
million bales of cotton implies two hundred
m -11 inn bnshels of cotton seed. And
allowing a bushel of seed to contain one
cmart of oil, wo should nave Mtymu

tained in tne enure crop oi one year.
Only a small portion of this amount is

ties these oil factories have been found
on trial to be profitable. There are
many of them in operation in New Or
leans, Memphis and other cnies or xne
Southwest.
Ilcre at Favetteville are several cot

siderable quantity of cotton seed could
be obtained. Is this Dot a favorable
point for establishing a cotton seed oil
factory? W e asK tnis question mereiy

All the. "signs," according to those

persimmons, etc., was never known to be
more abundant than it is this fall, and ac
cording to the observations of bur fore
fathers it indicates very cold weather.
How the hornets build their nests is an
other infallible indication, and this year
they have chosen the tops of the tallest

of the approach of severe temperature;
but why they would not be just as com

The Kivef.
"When the steamer Gov. Worth pass
ed the shoals yesterday, below Fav
etteville, there was but six feet of water.
The river was then falling but it was
raining very harji at the time and the
probabilities arerthat there were also
heavy rains in the interior. It is thought
that there will be another freshet atop
of this.
Weather Forecasts -
Yenner and Tice are both to the tore
again with their predictions of severe
weather. The former expects that the
latter part of December, with January
and March, will give the most snow.
February, he says, "looks warmer." He
anticipates an early Spring and thinks
that the ice crop will be good.
Prof. Tice forecasts that the winter
months will be characterized by great
and'sudden changes in atmospheric press
ure, and consequently by heavy precipi
pation that is, heavy rains in the South
and heavy snows in the Isorth, with
generally extreme low temperature.

Dr. DeRossei's Arrival.
Dr. A. J. DeRosset arrived here safe
ly last night with his son, Dr. M. J. De
Rosset, and family, from New York.
Dr. M. J. DeRosset, it will be remem
bered, was stricken with paralysis some
weeks ago in New York city, where he
was at that time residing and practic
ing ihis f profession, but it was only
recently that bis physicians would con
sent to his 'removal, which was ac
complished last night by hi3 safe arrival
in Wilmington. The condition ot the
sicK gentleman is much improved from
what it was when he was first stricken
and we are happy to be able to state
that he is quite cheerful and talks with
much mere freedom and more intelligibly
than he was able to do at first.
Death ot Mr. Melvln.
Mr. Jas. S. Melvin, who was stricken
with paralysis about ten days ago, died
this morning at his boarding house on
Market, between Front and Second
streets. His body was taken up the
river to Pine Bluff, Bladen county, to
day. Mr. Melvin was about 58 years of
age, and was insured in the Presbyterian
Mutual Assurance Fund of Louisville,
Kentucky. Prior to the war he lived
among us "several years, but moved back
to his home at the beginning of the war.
About twelve months ago he removed to
this city and engaged himself in the bus
ness of timber inspecting. He was well
liked and was highly respected.
A Ntw Core for Wounds
A writer on health topics gives the
following directions for curing wounds
"As soon as a wound is inflicted, get f
little stick a knife or file-handle will do
and commence to tap gently on the
wound. Do not stop for the hurt,
but continue till it' bleed3 freely and be
comes perfectly numb. "When this point
is reached you are perfectly safe all
that is necessary 13 to protect it from
dirt. Do not stop short of bleeding
and numbness and do not on
any account close the opening with
plaster. Nothing more than a
little cereate on a clean cloth h nec
essary. "We have used and seen this used
on all kincU of simple punctures for
years, and never knew a single instance
of a wound becoming inflammed or sore
atter.this treatment. Among, other
cases: a coal rake tooth going entirely
through the fob a rusty darning needle
through the foot, a bad bite by a suck
ing pig, several instances of file shanks
through the hand, and numberless cases
of rusty nails, awl, &c, but we never
knew a failure of thu treatment." ,

The Guir olrfaai.
Our neighbor of the Star is mistaken
in saving that the steamship Gulf
Stream (of which we spoke at length in
the Review on her previous trip to this
port) was built for a blockade runner.
The Gulf Stream was known in ante
bellum days as the North Carolina.
The pioneer of the line, which was estab
lished during the last year previous to
the war, was the Jarlersbnrg and
the second steamer was the Xorth
Carolina, now the Gulf Stream.
She ran here but a few months previous
to the war and she came ino the port
after the Ijorts had been seized by ths
State forces. ' She was afterwards allow
ed to depart unmolested. Since that
time she has been lengthened ami enlarg
ed and now has an iron hul!.
