'1 lie last sad tribute or respect was
paid to Mr. W.JES. Hill this morning by
a large concourse of friends and acquain

b3 construed into a testimonial of deep
respect for the deceased. The remains
were escorted by Cape Fear Lode, I. O.

the residence of his mother-in-law, on the
corner of Fourth and , Bladen struts, to

Wilmington's Interest Again Jeopar
dized.
Merchants and others along the line
of the Carolina Central Railroad are
very much exercised over the discontin
uance of the local night mail from this
city. They, aver that it results to their
injury and that Wilmington will suffer
by the present mail arrangements. We
have been assured by one of the most en
terprising merchants along the line of
the road that his firm and others have,
been materially injured by the discon
tinnance of the way mail on the night
train and that orders lor goods which
were formerly sent to this city now go
elsewhere. Wilmington can hardly af
ford to lose any of its trade, no matter
how little, and we think it would be well
for our merchants to4ook into the mat
ter and if possible have it rectified. By
way of illustration as tohov? Wilmington
will suffer by the present mail schedule,
wo will cite a case in point: By the old
arrangement, that is, a way mail on night
trains, a merchant in Lumberton could
order goods and have them shipped the
same day and could be kept posted as to
the closing of the market at this point.
