The January number of the Soutfi At lantic contains a fall biographical sketch of Bishop Atkinson. "We learn that the news of the death of the Bishop was re ceived in Washington with almost cni rersal regret. It will be remembered that Bishop Atkinson confirmed W. W. Corcoran, and married Senatax and Mn. Bayard. Mr. Corcoran was warmly at tached to him. A Bis Improvement We are glad to see the City Treasurer busily engaged in making out a large number of the new 6 per cent city bonds, which are beinz sold at par. The bonds are being bought in large amounts by our most prominent business men. When the present city government took charge of tho affairs of the city, Wilmington city 8 percent bonds-were flat at 60 cents on the dollar, but now they' are stiff and are above par with none on the market. .

Ward's Bond Our supposition was that Capt. Ward, the new Sheriff of Feeder county, gave a bond for $30,000 on Monday last . bat since an articU w publish elsewhere was in type a gentleman who was at Hurgaw on Monday tejls us that tke amount in all for which the sureties arc held is. $47, 000. The bond is said to be as good as can be gotten up for a like amount any where in North Carolina. Election or Field OCleeri. The annual meeting of the company officers of the 2d Regiment N. C. S.G., for the election of field officers, was held in Charlotte daring the forenoon-of yes terday, the 11th inst. Captain J. M. Davis, Co.

There being no further business tho meeting after a harmonious session adjourned sine die. Fire at SmlthTllle. We regret to learn that a disastrous fire occurred at Smith ville this morning. destroying the dwelling of Mr. S. -M-Bobbins', together .with . ita contents, including a trunk in which Mr. Bobbins had $2,000 in money laid away, the result of years of honest toil at his trade in striking the anvil, Mr. Bobbins being a blacksmith by trade. We . have since learned that Mr. B. once kept his money in bank and had the misfortune to lose his deposit there also, since which time he has preferred to become his own banker, with the infortunate result above stated. Cruel fate sometimes pursues relentlessly the same individual, as we herewith have an instance. Th Wi-ather this Far.

Ward, the newly appointed Sheriff of Pender county, has given his bond as such. lie filed it in full on Monday, in the sum of $30,000, and the securities art all excellent. He has also qualified and will enter at once on the discharge of his duties. Capt. A'ard relieves Sheriff A. U. Pad dison and we trust that he will succeed in giving as much satisfaction during his term as that gentleman has g ven. Sheriff Paddison has, indeed, proven ono of the best officers in tho State, an as sertion which is not merely written here in compliment to a retiring official, bat because the facts bear us oat in what we say. At the last term of Pender Coun ty Superior Court, both the Judge aad the Solicitor took occasion to eompK ment him on the unswerving fidelity tad zeal he has displayed during his term of ofice.
