Satchwell, Presi demt ef ike State Beard of Health, to deliver aa address before the Prohibitory1 Coavemtitn, whieh assenblea at Raleigh on the 27th inst., ii which we may have left the iapression that he was to dis emss the question in merely a moral poiit ef Tiew. This is an error which we now correct. The question which Dr Satchwell will discuss before the Conven tion is "The use of intoxicating liquors in its relation to disease and health." The subject is to lie treated in a purely Ecien tific manner, rather than upon the moral issnes involved. A BU Fish BuiAot a t bate. Capt. Frank Wilkinson, of the steam er Elizabeth, who every one knows to be a jolly good looking,- ahem, fellow has before kindly helped ns to gather in, fomation for our readers, but never did he give us an item that we appreciated Caere than the following one. "Yester day," said he, "while we were coming f the river running about eighteen knots an hour, I looked over our port bow, npr'-by-east-half east when I saw a dark object apparently about' fifty feet long, on the slanting gang way on the itarbard ef the fish house at Keg Island. "We were then running nor'-ner-west when we changed our course to east-aor'-east-halfeast and ran for the fisheries. "As we approached wo saw the object en the slanting gangway sorter raise up,"stretch itself and disap pear under the water. I knew what it was the moment it struck its natural element, water, and got our harpoons readjr, for I was determined to capture that whale We kept a sharp eye to the windward and changed oar course. Nor' nor' ' west and resumed the channel. By this time we were making about twenty-two knot8 an hour, and;were bearing down on the No. 4 black bouywhich we passed to the starboard. Just as we passed the bony we discovered the whale passing across our bows, but out of harpoon reach. I concluded to gire him a shot and fired at him with a No. 1 Smith & Wesson six shooter. Being a p-re-t-ty cood shot I stopped his headway and wc ran along side. Well, sir, we got it on board and I'll be blamed if. it want the biggest rock fish yon ever caw; it weighed eighty. seven powsds and I can prove it by As he was looking around for some one lo prote it by we hirried along to the eZies to dot the iten down -while it wafrc:Vin ' ear casd " - Strawberries en Rente.

The Srtbscrilers to the S!therii Bell IVlpiione Compmy will find by reading the advertistmect oi the M ui;ert tr. W 11. Sterling, pnblishtd in another column, something of interest connected with the nianageineat of the Phofie umier the regulations recently adopted, "which promise we apprehend, aiore satisfaction in tne future to subscribers than at any time in the past. Mr. R. Lee West, a young gentleman from Richmond, Va., will be in immediate charge of the Tele phone Office, under Mr. Sterling, and will see that all calls on the Exchange are promptly and courteously replied to Inspectors cf Election Arrested. Messrs. Gaston. H. Hill, Registrar, John G. Darden and J. W. Millis, In spectors, of the general election held in the Fifth Ward last November, were ar rested VeVrday on an affidavit sworn out by Hiram Hankins, colored, and car ried before U. S. Commie3ioner McQuigg The affidavit charges the defendants with refusing to allow the prosecutor to vote, on the plea that his family resided in the Fourth Ward. Hankins states that his family left him about two years ago and has since been residing in the Forth Ward, but that he remained in the Fifth Ward, living in a place which he has owned since 1853. The defendants challenged his vote on the grounds as set down in law that a married man's residence is where his fam ily lives. And the evidence was that before the defendants could consult to gether Hankins left the polls. That they concluded to swear him as to residence and allow him to vote and let the respon sibility of illegal voting rest upon him; that he was called back and sent for, but he either failed to hear or refused to come back to the polls. There being no .evidence against Mr. Darden he was dis charged, but Messrs. Hill and Millis were bound over for their appearance at the next term of tbe U. S. District Court which convenes in this city next month. Military Keif s. As a matter of interest to our military friends who contemplate a trip to the Yorktown celebration, we append the following article from the Raleigh News Observer, that the members of our different military companies may learn the prevailing sentiment in regard to the adoption of a uniform dress for the whole State Guard. Our Raleigh contemporary uys: The idea of the State "service" uni form meets with; marked favor in many parts of the State. The idea of a uni form is uniformity. Many persons think the word carries with it the idea of a gaudy dress and equipment. It should be borne in mind that in these days, when the militia of the country are not only "play" soldiers, but real ones as well, they should be equipped for work. Since 1877 it has been the aim of the authorities here to am the troops with the best rifles attainable, and now tbe idea of equipping our well armed force in one regulation State service uniform is being entertained. There has been considerable inquiry as to the pro bable cost of such a uniform. We can only approximate it. Blouses of good cadet gray flannel, lined throughout, will cost, say $3,75; trousers of sky blue cloth, good quality, $4, and fatigue caps 72 cents. This makes the costofauni form$8.47. The appearance of a command thus attired, every man exactly alike an other, strikes every beholder. The uni form will be at once cheap, serviceable and attractive. Of course this data of the cost is only an estimate, but it is no doubt a pretty close one. A specimen uniform is now being made by a well known firm who, by the way, uniformed the North Carolina troops who engaged in 1he Mexican war. - The idea in having a service dres3 is to use it whenever the troops are thrown together. This, under the new law, which allows annual encampments, will be done annually. It is -understood that companies may on other occasions wear their own peculiar uniform. It is thought that in view of the three merits so mark ed, of service, ability, cheapness and uni formity, the proposed -service' dress will find favor in the eyes of the Guard. It will add a hundred per cent, to the appearance of" the command at York town. The following letters remain unmail able in the postoffice in this city: Dorcas Davis, Sumter, S. O; Mary E. Charlotte, Peace Institute, Baleigh;N. B.j Miss Nancy Brooks, Sneeds Ferry, N.C. " Memorial Day. It will goen be here, and it behooves ns to make preparations for a proper ob servance of the day. True, the Memo rial Association has met and have made all their arrangements of committees for decorations and things of a like charac ter, but there are other important meas ures yet to be taken in order to cele. brate the day as it demands. It is very important that all 'the preliminaries should be arranged several days before hand, and it is ho ped that action in the matter will be taken as soon as the ladies can- make- it -con form to their convenience and pleanxre. How to oe your own N. Y. Enamel Paint, warranted at Jacobi's. painter : Buy the ready mixed and t Complimentary to Mrs M- P. Taylor. In response to a general sen timent for a repetition of the "Doctor of Alcan tara" the ladies and gentlemen who took parts in the performance on Wednesday evening, have together with Mrs. D Kahnweiler tendered to Mrs. M. P. Tay lor a benefit as an appreciation of her services which have always been so cheerfully given. The complimentary entertainment will be given at the Opera House on Tuesday night next the 26th inst. Mrs. Kahnweiler will between the acts render some of her vocal selec tions which will bring out the full melody of her charming voice. The tender of a complimentary en tertainment to Mrs. Taylor on, the part of the ladies and gentlemen is a fitting and just recognition of her valuable ser vices at the entertainments heretofore given by them. Rev. Dr. Deoms' Lecture. We regret exceedingly that circum stances which we could not control pre vented pur attendance at the Opera House last night to listen to wkat has been pronounced by competent judges, as one of the finest ef the many able and scholarly productions which have been delivered in the shape of a lecture to a Wilmington audience. From the well known ability of the distinguished di vine, who lectured, every one anticipat ed the feast which we are told was spread for them. Dr. Deems possesses the hap py gift and faculty for claiming the at tention of his auditors without wearying them from beginning to end, and none who have ever heard him once will lose the opportunity when presented of listen ing to the charm of his voice again. Our disappointment in not being able to give some account of the eloquent effort ef the learned gentleman, is only exceeded by onr regret that we were not able to be present and enjoy the delightful en tertainment. The Hon. George Davis, as we had heard and intimated in the. Review yes terday, did the honors of the evening by introducing in a most felicitous manner the reverend gentleman to the audience. We sincerely trust that Dr. Deems may be prevailed upon at no distant day to favor Wilmington with a repetition of his able and eloquent discourse npon "Nature and the Bible."

For two years I suffered with Rheumatism ia my left shoulder and right arm, and last fall I was incapable of attending to my dutie?, and lay many a night unable to sleep on account of terrible pains. , A few weeks ago a severe attack of this trouble struck me, and this time I concluded to try the St. Jacobs ' OiL, I must acknowledge, with but little codfidence in its merits. I freely confess that the result has com pletely astonished me. The first applL cation relieved the pain very materially, and the continued use of only two bot tles has completely cured me of this chronic evil, and that after the most eminent physicians and their prescrip tions had been of no avaiL I therefore consider it a duty to publish the above for the benefit of all sufferers with Rheu xnatisn and kindred complaints. G. A. Hxxurix, Editcr Republics, Pittsbvrsb, P Concerning the Health or the City.
