wind a distance of forty yards; and a
colored boy about ten years Qf age was
taken up bodily by the wind, lilted into
the air and carried over the stables and
landed about a hundred yards beyond,
sans coat, sans breeches, and, in fact,
sans everything he had on save the col

trowsers, and these were so black with

having left them behind, under the im

Wilmington and Baltimore.
t . i
A Review reporter met yesterday a
gentleman from Baltimore! wbo has
been for many years connected with the
steamship lines from Baltimore to
Southern parts. He informed us that
there were capitalists in Baltimore who
were now ready and willing to put on
five steamers, two to run between Bal
timore and Wilmington, and two be
tween Baltimore and Charleston, and
the fifth to run alternately to Charles
ton and Wilmington as the business
might require. This gentleman says
that it will be necessary for a portion of
the capital to bo raised here in Wil
mington. We sincerely hope that some action
may be taken in this direction for such
a line of steamers would be of great
benefit to Wilmington and would, we
are sure, divert a considerable portion
of the .freight on the upper part
of the ! Carolina Central Railroad
to this city which without thiB line
would seek an outlet via Portsmouth
to Baltimore. Every encouragement
should be given to this scheme, and we
know bf no better way -than through
the Chamber of Commerce the Pro
duce Exchange and the Board of Trade,
We have nothing to lose in this move
ment, and much indeed to be gained,
and we hope that our suggestion may.
ba the means of putting the ball m mo
tion, and that soon wo may be able to
report favorably. In 1866-7-8-9 and 70
there was a fine business done between
Baltimore and Wilmington, and why
not anticipate a business for hereafter
larger than at that time? Let our en
terprising merchants put their shoul
ders to the wheel, ind success will
crown their efforts. I .
About aWilmingtonian.
It is always a pleasure for us to chron
icle the, success of a Wilmingtonian,
and we publish herewith the following
complimentary notice taken from Jhe
Atlanta Constitution of the 23d inst. :
The people of Atlanta will regret to
learrt tnat Professor Agostini will not
give any of his delightful entertain
ments at DeGive's this summer. Dur
ing the three seasons that . Professor
Agostini has been here tho entertain
ments which he has. given have been
among the best amateur performances
ever presented here, and have been uni
versally enjoyed. Since his return from
Wilmington. XC, he has been over
whelmed with the duties of his acade
my, and wiU not havo time to arrange
for any of his pleasant entertainments
further than the usual Friday soirees
and Saturday matinees at his academy.
At theso the, attendance is overwhelm
ingly large ; "and even standing room is
eagerly shought for. When Prof. Agos-'
tini returned from Wilmington, it was
his- intention to teach a school of only
fifty pupils. The number. However,
has increased since the first of March
to two hundred which amount to the
neat sum of two u thousand -dollars for
twenty-four lessons. - Professor Agos
tini was greatly missed, during his so-
jonrn in W ilmington, ne leis nere
with the expectation oi remaining tnere
only s short time," but an offer of a $500
school forced him to remain there for
awhile; To the great delight of hi
friends he returned to Atlanta" on the
first of March and has quickly bnilt up
his school to its present remarkable
success. It is a pleasure to his friends
to see him making money, but it is a
source of regret that ther are thereby
deprived of a large share of his society.
Personally Professor Agostini is one of
the most popular .men in our, city, and
is one of the most perfect gentlemen
one would meet in a year's travel, .Pew
men have a stronger hold on the hearts
of AUantfansy -

Samuel E. Palmer, a young employ
ee in the Gents' Furnishing Store of T.
Miller, No. 355 Sixth (avo., New
York City, has invested regularly in
the Drawings of The Louisanna State
Lottery by sending to M. A. Dauphin,
New Orleans, La. Ho failed to get a
ticket in the February drawing, as he
sent too late", but received one in the
March distribution.) He was laughed at
by his friends, but he offered to bet $100
that ho would some day win I a large
prize, i Sure enough he found that his
was a half of ticket No- 6090, which had
drawn $5,000, He collected it through
Adams Express Company, and as he
has- frequently drawn small prizes of
$20 and $10 before, will send in time
for May 9th, to be in the next drawing
under the special supervision of Gen'ls
G. T. Beauregard of La., and Jubal A.

Testing Hydrants and Hosq.
One thousand feet of new hose were
tested at the corner of Front and Dock
streets yesterday afternoon, under the
supervision of Capt. F. G. Robinson,
Chief of the Fire Department. Five
hundred feet have been apportioned to
the Cape Fear Steam Fire Engine Com
pany No 3, and the remainder has
been reserved for an especial purpose.
The'hose was found to be as represent
ed. ! In testing the hose a test of the
fire hydrant was also made, Five hun
dred feet was attached to the hydrant,
and .five hundred to the engine. At a
given signal the water was turned on at
the hydrants,and the engine commenced
to pump. A stream was thrown from
the hydrant one minute before the en
gine threw a stream. The test as to
distance was made with 1 and 11-2
inch nozzles. The hydrant threw the
water further through the 1 1-2 inch
nozzle than the engine did through the
inch. The test was entirely satisfac
tory, and proved conclusively that the
hydrants would beat any engine in the
country in getting on the first stream.
The.eugino carried 115 pounds water i
pressure, and the water works 90 pounds
