Nashville, Tcnn., is scourged with smallpox. Thirteen now cases were reported on Saturday, and fifty patients are in the Pest-house. One school con taining six hundred pupils has been closed for two weeks. Chief Justice Appleton, of Maine, has been on the Supreme Bench' of that State for thirty-one years, and has held his present position for' twenty-one years. He is seventy-eight years old.

General Francis A. Walker thinks that all the work of the census llureau will be ready for publication by the 1st ol next July. What a sham it is to publish the records and statistics of a census four or five years after it was taken! There is an an earnest attemptinak ing to root out the terrible disease of lep rosy from the Hawaiian Islands. Fifty lepers have recently been removed from Honolulu to the leper settlement at the island of Molokai, to be separat ed from their friends. imcl families for ever. There would be more marrying in the world if there were more girls like one living near New Orleans. She has chartered a steamer and is to be married on board.

Mrs. Gladstone has received a letter (row the Queen, begging her to use her influence to induce Mr.v Gladstone to accept of a peerage. This, while lessening his labor, would enable him to continue Prime Minister. But the ereat commoner prefers to "retire from office altogether and to remain in the House. The Augusta Chronicle says: "We would not be a bit surprised if Mary land, Florida and Sooth Carolina fol lowed .Virginia temporarily into the ftepublicaa camp. But several of the great Eastern and Western States now Republican would gravitate toward ocracy. This would at least knock the bottom out of the solid North and Jud South, whUe electing a Democratic President We can't see the' basis for soch a "surprise." South Carolina go Republican, and of that fact we are sure, while it does not look as though Florida .had any -leanings m that direction.

An interesting event occurred last night in the Second Bapt" 1st Church, in this city. This was the marriage of a young couple, the pastor of the church, Rev. J. P. King, officiating.

Alderman DeRosset offered a resolu tion, which was adopted, that the City Clerk and Treasurer, being tax collector, be required to furnish at his own ex pense j such assistance as, may be re quired in the collection of taxes. j A motion to go into an election for Clerk and Treasurer was adopted. AJderman DeRosset nominated Col. Jno. I). Taylor for, City Clerk and Treasurer. Alderman Guyer moved to make the nomination unanimous. The motion was adopted, and Col. Jno.

The commitiee on Lights reported, recommending that rfrnew oil lath p be placed on .the southeast corner of Tenth and Dock streets j. that the gas lamp near the corjier of Water street anj Gabie alley be exchanged for the one in front of the City Hall, and that it be placed so as to light the alley more effectively; that the oil lamp on the southwest corner of Dock and Eighth streets be replaced with a gas lamp ; that a new gas lamp be placed on Fourth street, between Hanover and Brunswick. The report was received and the recommendations were adopt ed. . . ..I The contract for lighting lamps was awarded to F. M. King & Co. ; Alderman Fishblate moved to sub stitute the name of R. II. Grant & Co. for F. M. King & Co., but the motion was lost. j The committee on Lights also report ed.awarding a contract to the Wilming ton Gas Light Co, Alderman Fish blate moved that the matter be referred back to the committee, i Alderman 1 DeRosset moved to amend by referring it to a special committee. The motion as amended was adopted, and the Mayor appointed as the special committee Aldermen Fishblate, Bear and Chad bourn.- : The committees for the various de partments were instructed to make up their estimates and hand the same to the committee on Finance. Alderman Fishblate moved to recon sider the motion referring the natter of gas to a special committee. Adopt ed, j On motion, the report of the commit" tee on Lights awarding the contract for gas to the Wilmingtonn Gas Light Company was then adopted. Alderman Dudley offered a resolu tion, which was adopted, empowering the committee on Markets and Fees to have the necessary work done to put the city markets in order for occupan cy. . j The majority of "the committee on Streets and Wharves reported adverse ly on the matter of opening the dock at the foot of Chestnut street. Alder man Guyer, of the committee, made a minjority report, recommending that the donck be opened, witli concurrence of the Commissioners of Navigation. On motion of Alderman Dudley the minority report was adopted. A resolution requiring the city scav enger to use air-tight barrels was refer red to the Sanitary Committee. ; A petition for a saw-dust sidewalk was referred to the committee on Streets and Wharves. A petition for opening the dock at the foot of Davis street and for the im provement of Parsley street, was re ferred to the same committee. A petition for a market house in the Third Ward was referred to the com mittee on Markets. ! The Board adjourned until Tuesday night, the 17th insfc. The JLast Drawiogr. Our attention has been called to the fact that the -figures published by us yesterday as constituting the numbers of the ticket which drer the capital prize in the Louisiana Lottery drawing on the 10th inst., are different from those published in the Star. The differ ence is simply in the terminal figure, which was given by jtheSfr fas a 9 and by us as a 7. It may be a small matter, but we know of at least one terminal prize in this city depending on these figures. The Review is probably correct, as the Raleigh Ketcs and Ob server and tho Charlotte Journal both published it as we did. - The following is a little fnller information on the sub ject than has yet been given: : Nov 62,887 drew $75,000; No. 72,692. $25.000;No. 22,989. $10,000; Nos. 26, 502 and 58,507, $6,000 each ; Nos. .25, 335. 27.G31, 50,116, 9.372 and 97.878. $2,CC3 ch; Nos. 37,537, 37.216, 3,202 andi7,c:?,ci,c:ac!i:h;-; Wilmington Presbytery. FIRST DAY. . This Presbytery convened in the First Church of this city at 8 oelock last evening. Religious worship was conductedy Rev. S. H. Isler, the re tiring Moderator. ( After these services the Presbytery was! organized for business-by the elec tion ot IJcv J. S. Black as Moderator, and Rev.'A. Kirkland and Rnling El der A. R: Hicks, Jr., as temporary clerks. The reading ot the minutes of the last session of the Presbytery was dispensed with, and after prayer the Presbytery adjourned to meet in the lecture room of the church thi3 morn ing at 9 A. M. . ' The: Presbytery of Wilmington con sists of fifteeninmistcr3 and one ruling elder from each of the thirty-one churches. SECOND DAY. Presbytery met at 9 o'clock this morning pursuant to adjournment and opened with prayer, after which the minutes of the last meeting were read and approved. Several ministers and lay delegates appeared in Presbytery and rendered satis lactory reasons for tardiness, which were accepted. A communication was received from Rev. Dr. Chapman, giving reasons for his absence, which was accepted and the stated clerk was directed to express to him the sympathy of Presbytery. On motion, a committee on leave of absence and tardiness was appointed. Presbytery proceeded to the exami. nation of Rev. J. M. Rose, who pre sented a certiGcate from Memphis Pres bytery, ahd he was received as a mem "ber of Wilmington Presbytery. Rev. Frank H. Wood, pastor of Frout Street M.

A letter received here yesterday by a. friend of Mr. Joe Hart, the popular Manager of the Madison Square. Thea tre Company, states: T will be with you on the 27th. with the same elegant company that played 'Hazel Kirke' and Esmeralda' in your city, ye shall present the latest great success at the Madison Square Theatre, Young Mrs. Winthr6pt bringing new scenery and effects, j In reply lx your inquiry, I will state that the popular actor. Mr George Beckworth, who impersonated Piticus Green and Esterbrook," is still with us, playing a leading part in Winthrop,' with great success." Wc arc glad that this popular company will visit us, and we are sure that a large house will greet them. . I - , Rev. A. McFadyen is appointed by Presbytery to preach in theFirstPres bytcrian Church, corner Third and Orans streets, to-night, services to be r!a r,t S o'clec!:. . . : ":: ' ; ; TJlie New Markets. , We have received a communication from Long Crek relative to the agree ment between Ithe city authorities and the butchers, for the occupancy of the new markets, .'which is disposed to verv strongly criticise the market regula tions here. We do not publish the communication, because it is unaccom panied by a name, but we reply to some of the charges made, because it is to tho interest of all of our readers that the city arid the country should understand each other well on this sub joct. - , The agreement which has been made, by which the citjr is to prohibit the sale of meats fish, vegetables, arid all farm and garden products at any other point than at the markets, is jerfectly correct and proper. It will amount, we pre sume," to nothing more or less thari the market regulations which were' in force here for so many years prior to 17 J, whereby sales were prohibited lat any other point thanj the market, during market .hours. These latter were 10 o'clock in the Summer and 1 lovelock in the Winter, and after tfcore hours the dealers could go off and sell wherever they pleased. There is surely no hard ships in this to .the producers. The same plan worked -well enough here years ago,! and why shouldn't it work well now! j ' . : - tv.' . Our correspondent's witticisms in regard to a want of room aud accom modations are not very felicitous. There is room provided especially lor the 'poor countryman," whereby his horse and his vehicle and . himself will be protected from the weather. As it is now the horse and man for the sale offish and vegetables, are exposed to the elements at all seasons of the year. As to the suggestion that cottpn and peanuts must be classed a farm pro ducts that is absurd. The market reg ulations will be simply for the sale of articles of food. We are sure that when promulgated by the Board of Al dermen they will prove wise and equit able and will not bear any harder on the producer than on the consumer. Chestnut Street Dock. , The action of the Board ol Aldermen last night relative to the Opening of Chestnut street dock is very strange. Two reports' came in from .the special committee, ! one, from the majority, reporting adversely to the opening of the dock, and the other, from the min ority, recommending. that the dock be opened, and the minority report, which was presented by Alderman Guyer (col.) was adopted. , It is only a few years since the dock ! was closed at considerable cost to the city. It is the only dock thus closed North of Market street and as it is now is a matter of much public convenience. To open it will be to open a nuisance, as it will be full of trash and filth at all hours of the day and night. As it is 'now, the movement for the opening of the dock i3 calculated to benefit the pockets of two, or three in dividuals- at the expense ol. the public comfort and eonvenience. Kitchen Market.
