Dear Madame :In reply to your let
ter asking whaJJL think of your Kemedy,
I would say that the sales have been very
fair; "and so far es I can learn, the Reme
dy has been very satisfactory to my cus
tomers who have U3ed it, especially so in
the case of a little girl of this city, ten
years of age, who was troubled for a
long time with sores breaking t out over
the face and neck; having 'the appear
ance of Scrofula, and which had resisted
the usual alterative treatment for a long
time. She took four bottles of the Bit
ters last Spring, when the sores entirely
disappeared, and up to this time she has
had no. return of them, her skin looking
as fair and clear as anyone's.
Tmstine that you may receive the suc
cess which" your Remedy seems to merit,
I am, very respectfully yours,
WM. SIMPSON,

Leayltfi MlBitreli.
The performance of Leavitt's Gigaa
tean Minstrels at the Opera House last
night was in manyfeatures a most ex
cellentone. In some parts, however, it
was marred' by that license of broadness
which ia fist being banished (as it should
long since have been) from the minstrel
stage. The Comrmny;i a strong one,
both numerically axd irx point of talent.
There wer twenty-six performers upon
tbe stage at one time.
The Virginia Bercnaders" was a plea? .
ant revival of tho originaLfittempU t
negro minstrcbiy and a part or the enter
tainment which was thoroughly enjoyed
by the audience. J
The musical : performances of Messrs.
WooJ, Beasley & Weston Brothers were
of the rarest excellence. In variety and
merit we hare never seen them surpassed.
The "Golden Quintette" also gave
some very choice selections which weie
thoroughly appreciated. Lew - Benedict
is a deservedly popular Ethiopian come'
dian and his oration was very amusing.
We must not forget to pay our re
8pects to Dan Emruett. the author of
"Dixie" who sang oar Southern national
song with a Tim and appreciation we
had always accredited to the author.
We commend the performance as a
whole, and would like to see the troupe
here again.
A clear head and quick action must be
possessed for steady and successful effort;
but who can have such while suffering
from Cold ? Use Dr. Bull's- Cough
Syrup and procure immediate relief.
. . If arrow Gauge to Clinton.
Capt. Dick Paddison is in the city to
day, exhibiting his map of the proposed
railway between Point Caswell and
Clinton, in Sampson county. It is to be
a narrow gauge road, and not a tram"
way, as was at first proposed, and as we
mentioned some days ago. The map is
a handsome one, very carefully drawn,
and was executed by Mr. Henry A.
Colrin, of Moore's Creek. The distance
from Point Caswell to Clinton is just
forty miles, and the road will run
through a country which has never
yet been opened up and which is capable
of great development. We know it well,
as in years gone by we have been all
over that entire country. The road will
cross Black River about two mile below
Black River Chapel and the Coharie in
Sampson county. These are the only
water courses of any importance and the
bridging will be very light. There are
high bluffs .on Black River and the Co
harie is a shallow stream. We are glad
to know that the prospects are very
good. The road, it is estimated
will cost about 130,000 and -equipped
about $150,000, say $3,250 per mile for
construction. Capt. Paddison tells us
that he has been over the lontc twice and
that everywhere the people are warmly
ia favor it. The citizens ot Sampson
county will themselves subscribe about
$50,000 and it is hopod that the county
will add to this. The prospects here,
too, are rcry fine and Capt. Paddison
thinks that success may be considered
now as a mere "question of time and prop,
erly directed efforts.
I lis Gallery Cods
We are again forced to speak of the
conduct of the ''lords of the gallery" at
the minstrel show last night. The sing-
ers on the stage were annoyeu ana me
interlocutor tras frequently interrupted
by remarks. So great was the annoy.
ance to both the performers and the au
dience in the lower part of the house that
Mr. Benedict was forced to speak once
or twice to the ' gallery gods." The
crowning act of the bad conduct of seme
of these persons was committed "upon tho
close of the last act and when the u
diencegwere rising to disperse. Three
gentlemen who were sitting in the par
quette each received a shower of tobacco
juice on their faces and clothes. Th s
outrage was probably premeditated.
In addition to this we understand that
there was much noise and disorder in the
enclosure in front of the Opera House,
daring the performance, some reports be
ing to the effect that rocks were thrown
against the building. There were no ar
rests last night but we understand, that
the names of some of the offenders are in
the hands of those who will see that the
law is enforced the next time there is a
disturbance there.

The Board of Aldermen met in special

list of delinquent tax payers shall be
presented to the Board by the Treasurer,
at every regular, meeting.
Resolved, That the Treasurer, having
given good and sufficient bond, is hereby
permitted to deposit the city funds in
whatever bank be may select.
Alderman Huggins submmitted a re
port of the committee on Fire Depart
ment relative to the erection of a belfry
on the City Hill building, and the placing
of the fire-alarm thereon.
Alderman Chadbourn moved that the
resolution adopted August 8th,1881, em-
poworinir the "committee to erect a belfry
oa the City Hall and remove ine mo
alarm bell thereto be reconsidered.
Adopted.
The meeting then adjourned.
