The factors of "St. Louis" have united
to advise Southern planters of tho cot-

proristons 50 per cent, above the aver

' The report of the Bureau of Statistics
shows that 70,759.584 gallons of whiskey
were consumed in this ! country last
year. The prohibition publications
assert that all this whtskoy is taken,
down by merwho love it as a bererage.
The Louisville Courier-Journal asserts
that this is an error. Two-fifths of the
amount are used in the arts and manu
factures, leaving about , 45X00.000
gallons for 'ther drinking j purposes " of
ll,000,000tnales over twenty-one years
old.. -Allowing for all the moonshine
whiskey mad?, the average consump
tion per head is only four gallons, which
is not halt the quantity consumed in
many European countries.! Americans, 1
however, are heavy consumers of beer.
Last year they drank 525,000.000 gal
lons, which gives . them each j about
fifty gallons a yeaj. r ! .

We are glad to learn that the injuric
sustained by Capt. J. M. Bunting, who
was so badly injured at ThomasviIi ,
Ga., by the sudden moving of the ttain
of which ho was conductor, are not so
serious as was at first feared. It is the
right foot which was crushed, and it
was not amputated as was at first
slated, and there are hopes now . of
being able to save it. Mr. Jo. Bunt
ing, of this : city, received a postal this
morning from his brother,- written by
himseif, which was of a more hopeful
tone than any previous information re
ceived, here. Capt. Bunting will be
removed to Wilmington as soon as bis
condition will permit of it.

Prof. Henry E. Shepherd, President
of Charleston. (S. C.) College, lectured
last night to a large audience in Tileston
Hall, the use of which had been kindly
tendered by Miss Amy M. Bradley for
the purpose. The speaker was intro
duced to the audience by Col. James G.
Burr; President of the Wilmington
Historical and Scientific Society, in a
neat, appropriate and happ iy conceiv-
ei speech. The subject selected fdr the
occasion was "Language," which was
treated in an original, entertaining and
instructive manner. . Those who antici
pated a rather dry dissertation upon the
science ot language were happily dis
appointed, for it was ahighiy agreeable
discussion of the .English language
from the days of Queen Elizabeth to
the present time. ' Ho manifested an
intimacy with all of the most promi
nent authors which could only bat
taincd by close. : thorough and earn1"
est study.. '
, Prof. Shepherd is a North Carolinian
by birth. He has a fine presence, is
above the medium height, has a frank
expression of countenance and a j decid
edly intellectual head. He was at per
fect ease with his subject and showed
that he had kept up with the literary
thought of the times, by which he was
enabled to .furnish a rare intellectual
treat. ' " r 1 ' . ' '

Bishop Northrop.
The Right Reverend Bishop Northrop
arrived here this morning on the train
from Charleston, S. C, and will remain
here for several days. He has-received
the official announcement, from Cardi
nal Sitneoni, President of the Propa
gandi College, and of the Bureau of
American-Affairs, of .his appointment
to the .See of Charleston, Si C., and of
his retention of the Vicariate of North
Carolina. Tho papal briefs, or official
papers, have not as .yet been received,
but are expected by post daily. No ar
r&ngments as to his installation in
Charleston can be made until the papal
brieis shall have arrived. I no ceremo

place until after Easter Sunday: The fnty, I win eell at pnbllc auction

who will hold the See of Charleston

WhPlist the people of the North Caro

the See ot Charleston, they 1 no doubt
feel a little jealous at the division of his
labors between the two States. .
The Bishop has been suffering Jot
some days with a severe bilious attack,

A Cliase and an Escape.
There, was quite an excitement on j
the vharf to-day caused by an attempt
of Sheriff W. ,r. Sutton, of Bladen
county, to capture a prisoner who had
escapetl from jail atv Elizabethtown
Some four or five years ago. - Although
the sheriff had iyid an 4 idea where li e
culprit was, jo-diy was the first time
when they were near cnongh togeth. r
to make an attempt at re-capturo a
probable success. Seeing him to-daj
on the wharf, however, the sheriff went
for him and succeeded in catching him
by the coal-tail, but this article of ap
parel was not strong" enough
to stand the struggles of . the
culprit to get clear, and it parted com
pany with tho rest of the ooat and its
wearer, whe left that locality with
amazing celerity.. Unfortunately for tho
sheriff, his watch fell from luVpocket
in th struggle, and stopping to secure
that, gave the culprit the..-advantage,
and ho was out. of sihtin a moment,
lie hjad not, been captured at Uie lal
