This makes the fourth dividend which he has secured and paid out. It is thought thai another will be declared, which will probably be tbe last. 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- P Piak is OIM nf tht fkfihinnnhlp tltiift in all classes of COods. eXCDt2Cn- of the day. and it is to be said of tlemen's ready-made dothiiw. Their n mat u j, trying on the complex- , store will in no way be anything like a 5 and 10 cents or even a $1 store. Their goods will be of excellent quality and finish and they will deal largely in ladies and children's ready made under garments and dresses. Messrs.

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. aug 17 Respectfully, MISS E. KAR11ER. Exchange Corner. New York & Wilmington m - . w m aieamsnip .Line.

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. Freshwater Perch, Tout and Black fish hooks and lines. A foil 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.
