A Scrimmage.
Two colored women got into an angry
altercation yesterday afternoon, on the
corner of Mulberry and McRae streets,
and from words they soon came to
blows, when they fowt and they fit,
and they gouged and they bit, and they
scolded and swore, and struggled and
tore, at the clothing they wore, until one
was almost entirely denuded from her
neck to her waist. She evidently had
the worst of tbe fight, and so, borrowing
clothing with which to appear decent
ly clad, she went her way. We did
not learn the cause of the war nor the
names of the belligerents.
Principal of the Public Schools.
Mr. C. S. Noble arrived in the city
on Tuesday night. He is the gentleman
who has been employed as principal of
tbe public schools of this city. He met
the school committeemen of the first
and second districts in joint session at
the Mayor's office yesterday afternoon.
After a free exchange of ideas the meet
ing adjourned. The committee are much
pleased with the fact that they have
been able to secure Mr. Noble's services.
He is a gentleman of much experience,
capability and reputation as a teacher.
It will be his aim to raise the standard
of our public schools to a higher sphere
of usefulness and so discipline them as
to have no trouble in their management.
A New Enterprise.
In establishing a bazaar in this city,
Messrs. Shrier & Dryfoos will supply a
long felt need. Wilmington has Ionic
since felt the need of an establishment
of this kind and we arc glad to know
that this gap imher business circles is
to be filled up. They propose to con
duct their bazaar on the same principle
on which Macy's or Altaian's is carried
on and will be able to furnish their custo
mers with the thousand and one articles
which our citizens have been in the
habit of sending to the North for. The
store, No. 45 Market street, is being re
moddled and refitted for them. A new
front ot French plate glass with nickle
frames is also to be put in the store.
They propose opening on or about the
20th of September with a very large and
varied stock, and will keep all the nov-

shipment. The bales will average 550
pounds. Messrs. Newbury & Souther
land use Rockingham sheeting for bal
ing, as it is about as cheap as cotton
bagging and makes a much nicer pack
age. They have now ready for ship
ment about 45 bales, and unpacked
leaves enough to make ten or twelve
more bales The supply is almost
inexhaustible, and wagon loads
of the aromatic flavored leaves
of dogtongue are carried to them daily.
Mr. A. H. Morris, at Teachy's, is also
a very large dealer in dogtongue. He
shipped one hundred and fifty bales last
season and will increase his shipment
this year. He also deals largely in roots
and herbs and is building ud a fine bus
iness. There is no telling what are the
resources of this State. Leaves, roots
and herbs which have been growing
wild and undisturbed for centuries are
now beginning to have a marketable
value.
We notice that quite a large amount
ot sorghum cane is being cultivated in
Duplin county. We are told by relia
ble parties that there are about 400 acres
of cane now growing in that town. There
are seven sorghum mills in the county,
and at this season of year they are kept
very busy in grinding out the sweets.
The cane is first placed between large
rollers, which crushes it, and the syrup
drips into a barrel made for the pur
pose. The barrel, when full, is placed
on a tripod and the syrup is turn
ed ont, in quantities to suit, into
a' pan supplied with small gates.
The syrup goes through a process
of evaporation very much like that
used during the war in making
salt along oar coast. The mills now in
use have an average of 70 gallons of sor
ghum a day. It is estimated that an
acre of cane will yield M0 gallons. The
product of last year's crop was sold in
Goldsboro at 40 cents per gallon, and
was shipped from there to Baltimore.
The crop is an easy one to make, as it
requires very little cultivation. The
leaves of the cane are used as fodder,
while the seed arc fed to chickens, hogs,
etc.
At Magnolia, considerable attention
is paid to the cultivation of tube rose
bulbs, for shipment. Messrs. New
bury & Rivenbark have about ten acres
under cultivation. The seedlings are
planted in the Sprinac, and produce
'flowering bulbs" by Fall, which will
not bloom before the following year.
An acre of tube rose bulbs' will yield
about $500. The bulbs are taken up
and dried, and are then assorted, pack
ed and shipped. The prices of these
bulbs range frem $8 to $25 per thous
and, according to the quality. Mr.
John Meyer is also cultivating bulbs,
but on a small scale. We are told that
the production of the ten acres under
cultivation is already sold, and tnat
there is a demand for treble the amount.
Revised Edition.
We saw yesterday, in Mr. Yates' book
store, a copy of the revised edition of
Maury's Manual of Geography, intend-
sd expressly for use in North Carolina
schools. It embraces a new map of the
State, and a number of illustrations,
among them a very correct picture of
the port of Wilmington. This latter is
from a photograph taken by Mr. Orr,
from the top of the guano warehouse
on Eagle Island.
The members of the Bennett-Green
Club will meet at the Court-house this
evening at 8 o'clock. Let there be a full
turnout on this occasion.

Wedding: Bells.
We clip the following from the Mar-
garetville (N. Y.) Utilitarian, in refer
ence to the marriage, in that town, on
the 0 inst., of Mr. William Pollock, of
Pittsfield. Mass., to Mrs. Fanny
Greenough, daughter of J ames Dawson,
Esq., of this city:
The marriage ceremonies were pri
vate, owing to the delicate health of the
lather of the bride, having been held in
presence of some of the relatives of the
Ktrties who are guests of the "Ackerly
mis." and a few invited f;iends. The
high social position of the parties, their
youth and bright prospects for the
future, would seem to draw around the
bride and groom a halo of future bliss,
which, in after life, as the weight of
passing years grows heavy, will be in
tensified: by the sweet memories of
happy days spent in Margaretville.
As they leave the mountains and join
their home companions, we hope they
will not forget, (as we feel coundent
they will not regret,) that Cupid lurks
among the leafy bowers of the Dela
ware. The presents were not numerous,
bnt valuable, and will be treasured as
souvenirs of the happy occasion.

The Fruit Fair.
Greensboro, N. C, Aug. 9th, 1882.
Editor Daily Review: Thinking
you would like to hear something from
this section, and particularly of the
fruit-growing interest of North Caro
lina, I will drop you a few lines in the
hope that they may interest your read
ers. Early this morning people began to
pour inte the beautitul town of Greens
Doro, by ran, in carriages, wagons, J
carts anu on loot, until mere was a per
fect living sea of human beings.
At 11 o'clock, the hall being crowded
with men, women and children, Col.
John N. Staples, in brief, eloquent and
appropriate remarks, made the wei
coming address and introduced Col
Heck, President of the State Fruit
Growers' Association, who delivered a
very excellent speech in which he con
gratulated the Association upon the se
lection of Greensboro as the place of
holding their rair.
Gov. Jarvis was then introduced, and
made a very eloquent speech, in which
he promised the fruit growers of the
State that whatever he could do as a
citizen or in his official capacity to aid
their interests he would cheerfully do.
Then, as Governor of the State, he for
mally opened the first fruit fair in North
Carolina.
The fair is a success in every particu
lar. " There is the largest collection and
greatest variety of fruit that I ever wit
nessed in any State and makes one
think, when looking on, what a grand
old State we liveWn. No State m the
Union can produce better apples,
peaches, pears and grapes than are on
exhibition here to-day, either in size or
quality. It is a well known fact that
to-day North Carolina peaches are
commanding higher prices in the North
ern markets than those of any . other
State.
And now, Mr. Editor, pardon me for
speaking a little of my own section. As
you know it is the prevailing opinion
that the middle and western part of this
State is the best fruit growing part of
North Carolina, but I am perfectly sat
isfied from experience and observation
that this is a mistake, but it is a fact
that the people in those sections take
more carejn the cultivation of fruit than
we do. It is frankly admitted by fruit
growers, tha; the peaches grown on our
sandy soils have equally as good flavor,
will carry longer, and are from ten to
twenty days earlier; and in proof of the
assertion, Mr. S. Otho Wilson award
ed Mr. R. P. Paddison a special pre
mium for early varieties on exhibition
from Pender county.
Now, in view ot the fact that we can
raise fruit of as good quality, that will
earry longer and ripen earlier, and have
as good moans ol transportation, why
is it that we are not a fruit growing
people?
Col. Heck said, in his speech, " that
425,000 pounds of fruit had been shipp
ed from Greensboro this season, and the
amount would probably reach 100,000
more. Now, thi9 would make about 1
10,000 bushels, and at $2 per bushel
would make $20,000 drawn from the
North to that town alone. We can do
the same with the proper energy. Let
our people wake up on the subject, and
go to work, and if the Association hold
their next annual fair at Greensboro,
get our people to go up and how
they are growing fruit, and enjoy the
generous hospitality of the good people
of that place, and they will be well paid
for the trip. P.
