Frank Leslie's Popular Monthly.
The December number closes bril
liantly the ninth volume of this appro
priately named magazine, for its popu
larity is stupendous'; and that it should
bo so is not surprising, in view of. the
great intrinsic merit of the publication.
The present number contains a vast
amount of admirable reading matter, en
tertaining and affording much informa
tion. "The Industrial Progress of the
South," J. B. Killebrew, is the opening
article, profusely embellished, and among
other highly meritorious contributions
are "Annie Boleyn by A. id. Guernsey:
"At a Norwegian Wedding," by David
Ker; "A Short Trip Around the World,"
by Thos. W. Jvnox; "Studying the
Weather," by Munro, C. E., and
which are all finely illustrated. There
are interesting short stories by Margaret
Blount, Lillie D. Blake, Helen W, Pier-
son, Georgie A. Davis, etc., etc.; several
sketches and adventures- by popular
writers, poems of more than ordinary
morit, and an abundant miscellany. As
the next number commences a new vol
ume now is the time to subscribe, and a
most acceDtible holiday-gift will be a
year's subscription to this delightful pe
riodical. . Each number contains iza
quarto pages, and over 100 illustrations,
with a handsome colored frontispiece.
Annual subscription, $3; single copy, 25
cents; sent postpaid. Address, Frank

Holiday Preaeuif,
Empty mustard or spice boxes form a
good foundation for cigar holders. The
card board is cut to fit and decorated to
txste. The bottom of card board is
sewed in, and quilled ribbon hides the
joint and finishes the top of the case.
A ribbon is sewed to the sides, and forms
the handle. The same case may be hung
on the gas bracket and used for lighters.
In this case the tapers should be made
and the holders filled before giving the
present. Newspaper holdersre pretty
and easily made. The frames for these
are sold at fancy stores, and are merely
wooden or papier mache backs, with
slits through which the 6traps pass.
There are two of these straps of strong
canvas, bound with ribbon and worked in
point Russe or cross stitch. These straps
hold the newspapers, and may be let
out or taken up as desired.
Death Sodden and Harder Foul. 2
A colored man by the name of John
Luther, formerly an emp7oye of the city
but more recently a resident of Harnett
township, died very suddenly last night,
on Fifth, between Princess and Chestnut
streets. Coroner Hewlett held an ire
quest to-day, the jury finding a verdict
that death resulted from natural causes.
An old colored man; by the name of
Si who lived in this city, was found
dead on the road near Barnum's Creek,
Brunswick county, on Saturday night.
It was reported here by letter this
morning that an infant child was found
dead in a swamp, near the village of
Summerville, in Brunswick county, on
Friday last, with the head severed Jrom
the body and its right arm cut off. The
child was a new-born babe, and its color
was dusky, very duskyj ia fact it is
thought both of its parents must have
been eable-hued ' individuals of the
African persuasion. But the motive for
the horrible murder and butchery is yet
unexplained.
Vast Trains.
It is said that the new fast schedule is
to be put on about Sunday next. The
arrangements have been perfected and it
only remains now to make np an exact
schedule. Col. Bridgers and Capt. Di
vine are both Ntrth, relative to the mat
ter. It is said that the time between
New York and Wilmington will be 1 1
hours and 30 minutes. The fast train
will leave New York at 4:35 a. m.f
Washington at 11 a. m. and Richmond
at 3 p. m. This will put it in Wil
mington at 10:05 p. m, of the same day
on which it leaves New York. It will
overtake at this place the ordinary fast
schedule now on the Wilmington & Wei
don R. R. and the present fast night train
on the W. C. & A. R. R. will , take the
mails, with the necessary acceleration
made to its speed. .
The train on the Carolina Central, we
understand now, will not make as close
connection with the fast train on the
W. & W. as was expected. According
to what Capt. Johnson, the Superinten
dent, told us this morning a change will
go into effect on the C. C. R. R. on De
cember 8th, by which the mail train will
leave Wilmington at 10 a. m., thus mak
ing connection with the night train from
the North. The talk heretofore on this
road has been of a fast schedule connec
tion with the new fast train on the W
& W. whenever it is put on.
