One of the Chicago papers publishes a j list of the stockholders in the National j Ldnks or that cty. wiin mo amount oi their holdings. The record would sur prise people who arc accustomed to think that only the very wealthy have any interest in banks. There arc bg holders of stock in the Chicago banks, ol course, but the great majority of the holders of stock have from five to fifty shares, valued at from $500 to $5,000. The number of small holders is very large, but the amount of their stock is, in the aggregate, less than that of the few big stockholders. The late Gen. Ord was a grandson of George IV. and Mrs. Fitzherbert. His ather, James Ord, son of that morgan atic marriage, was raised in tho faith ol his mother, and was like his son, a UomanCatbolic. Jamej Ord, when a boy, was sent to France to be educat cd. and was afterward brought by his tutor to Georgetown College, where he became a professor. He took part in the war of 181?, serving as a captain. He was long a clerk at Washington, and died in in IST2 or 1S73. At Oma ha he assumed the name of Ord, which was that of his tutor, from a desire to avoid unpleasant notoriety.... t It is stated on what may or may not be good authority, that the syndicato which is behind tho .East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia B. K.. has pur chased . a controlling interest in the Richmond & Danville system. If true (and we have our doubts) this will probably affect the Associated Railway "ysteui. but in how remains to be seen. The following, which Is- dated from Saratoga, N. Y., July 27th, will tell all that is known about the matter now : The most important railroad transac tion that has ever taken place In tbe South is reported to have been con sumited to-day. ft is tho purchase of the Richmond & Danviilo system, or rather a control 1 hi ir interest in the same, from Gen.

This party will control about 2.500 miles of the Richmond1 and Danville and 1,500 miles of the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia, making in all about 4.000 miles of road, whose cross earnings are from ten to twelve million dollars per annum. i The property acquired perfects a system that gives direct outlet for all Mississippi Hirer and Southwestern points to the Atlantic seaboard at Washington, Baltimore -and other points. It extends from Washington, via the Vircinia Midland, to Danville. Va., and from West Toint, on the Chesapeake, to Richmond. It then continues via the Piedmont lload North, Carolina and I Charlotte, Colum bia and Augusta to Atlanta.

The property is reported to be in exceptionally good condition for business and the new owners, who have recentlv made care- ful trios over the system, report that they propose putting tho wnoie lour thousand miles under ono head and haave it kept up in the very best shape. It is also stated that tho purchase has been made for the purpose of making profits from the operation, and that no stock-iobbin:i scheme is to be entered into " Tho assiirtimcnt of the stock ! has been made in such a manner as to a33uro its remaining in the hands of the syndicate for some tjme to come.

Jordan, colored, disorderly conduct) 30 days in the city prison. John Williams, the colored minstrel who imitates the calliope on our strreis. was charged with cursing and acting disorderly in the public streets, for which he was sent blow for 30 days, with the privilege of being released . at any time providing he would leave the I city. Sudden Death. Mr. Jolin'Hogan, who for the last 15 years has been in the employ of the W. & W. R. R. Co., died at about 4 o'clock Ibis morning at his residence on tho corner of Red Cross aud Eighth streets. . Ho was in his usual health yesterday and returned from work and ate bis supper, soon after which he was taken seriously sick and carried to his rbed. Physicians were immediately summoned who did all that medical science and skill could suggest, but without avail. Mr. Hogan was about 40 years of age and leaves a wife . aud one child. His disease was apoplexy. The Turpentine Market. Subscribers to the Daily Review, residing outside of the city, occasionally complain to us of tho quotations in the reports of the turpentine market and one of them, at Whiteville, says that he canvassed the city last week and could not get $2.40 lor his turpentine, altho' it was quoted at these figures in Tues day's Review. Alof this subscriber's complaints are correct, except as to the inference that the reports in the Reyiew were incorrect, and we are really glad of tho opportunity of making a little talk about this matter for the benefit of all. In the first place, we pay to the Produce Exchange full ; -membership dues for the privilege of the blackboards at the Exchange. and wc have no other privileges, yet the Exchange docs not quote crudo turpentine now. forcing us to rely upon outside parties for quotations as to this article. To the inspectors and dealers, therefore, we apply and it is on information received from them that we rely, and iliis infor mation, be it understood,1 1 not ofhcial. It is correct, of course, market goesbut therein as far as tbe lies the rub, for it is a melancholy fact that there is no market in Wilmington for crude turpentine. That is to say, the market, as a market, is not really at all times quotable, and tbe actual market for turpentine to be manufac tured in Wilmington Is not in Wilming ton, but in the country, and hence it is. we presume, that the Produce Exchange have ceased to quote it. It is not an unusual thing for turpentine to sell for more money in the eountry than it will bring un tho city, for the reason that much of the crude material is bought up in the country by the agents of the city distillers. The demands of shippers, too, will sometimes affect the price of the article here. As to the complaint, in especial, of our subscriber at Whiteville, that he could not sell hero last Wednesday for $2.40, it is easy enough to demonstrate that our quotations on the afternoon of the previous day. Tuesday, were .thor oughly correct, so far as there were any reliable quotations at all. It was re ported by the inspectors on Tuesday at $2.40, and in both of the daily papers published here, the Star as well as the j Review, it was reported at $3.40 for that day. -1 To Builders and others Go to Jaoo bi's for Sash, Blinds and Doors, Glass &c -You can get all sizes and at the lowest prices.'.,';;... . v : Railroad Meeting.

Church is advertised to take place on Thursday, on the Passport to Sniithviile and the Forts, and we are sure that with a fair day, this one; will, in point of enjoyment be in no ways inferior to any of its predecessors. For Pocket Knives or Table Cutlery go to Jacobis Hardware Depot t.- We have received the catalogue of the Bingham School for the year i end ing last December 12th, that year " coy. ing the 17Gth and 177th sessions of this venerable institution ot learning, which was established in 1793. The list shows a total of 258 students in that year, four of whom, Masters DuBrntz Cutlar, Jr., Aaron Greenewald, Marcus W. Jacobl and George L. Morton, are from this city. A Teriuagruiit. At Justice Hill's emporium of justice to-day there was a scene not announced in the bills. One Margaret Claridy, colored, was brought up on a peace warrant, and while tho testimony was beingj given she became angrily excited and denounced the witness as a liar be sides calling her many other hard and obnoxious names, in such a-loud voice that it was heard nearly a block. She even wanted to fight and would have pitched in lively had she not been pre vented by the officers of the court and some of the bystanders. She was finally takeu in hand and locked up for her contemptuous conduct. I -r-- .j- Silver Plated gpoons and,Forks,!ow prices, at Jacob! .'s i f The Carolina Central. We find"a floating paragraph, dated from Raleigh, which in speaking of the opinions of Judges Bond and Seymour, filed last week in Raleigh, in reference to the Carolina Central R. R. suits, says : j The case will now be carried to the United States Supreme Court by the plaintiff. .This decision wiH probably put an end to any proceedings by the attorney-general of the State, under t he resolution of the Legislature instruct ing him to bring quo warranto against the Seaboard Company to have the stock held by that company forfeited to the State, The attorney general has taken no action, and has been; awaiting this decision for : his " guid ance. ;If this decision finally con cluded the litigation the Carolina Cen tral Road would at once ! be extended thirty miles from Shelby, N. O, to Spartanburg, S. C. The road from Augusta to Greenwood and thence on to Spartanburg, S. CJ, is nearly corns pleted, and the filling in ol the gap between Shelby and Spartanburg would make another through line to the South over the seaboard system of railways. Nothwithstandiug the caso may not be decided in the Supreme Court for five years it is probable that this thirty miles will be built and . the new line opcucd within tho next eighteen months.
