VII. i WILMINGTON. N, C, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 6. 1883. NO. 212 New England is. badly damaged by a long drouth. In many. localities the fanners have 6een compelled to ; take their cows from the pastures and feed them upon Winter hay. In conse quence, the price of j milk, !in many places, has been raised. I The New York SQfmcs (Republican) says: "The chief question which the people or the United j States are. now considering: i3' how tcrsecure an1 honest intelligent administration of the nation al government, and they do hoi sec that that question prcsenis itself , in any dif ferent form in the South than j in auy other part of the country. Nor; do they see how Its settlement in any right way can be promoted by giving influence and power to such unscrupulous trick sters, political hacks, and j dishonest schemers as Mahone and Chalmers " Among the latest announcements of the discovery of the yellowj fever germ is the news that Dr. Domcnigps Freire, of Brazil, has ioiind it in the! earth of graves, in which persons dea-1 of yellow fever had been buried, has. cultivated the germ aforesaid, and with the' pro ducts thereof has I killed animals, etc. He claims also to have found this germ in the blood of (hose dying) of yellow fever. is ! These alleged discoveries have been communicated to the State Department. and the report is published the New Orleans Picayune at length in After reading it, it seems to U3 very improbable that what Dr. Friereclakns to have seen has any relation to yellow fever. The disease which he produced is animals by injections, was not yel low fever, but septicemia possibly in one casejpoisoni ng by ptomaines pto mainesalkaloid substances found in the fluid . of decomposing human jbod ie?.. Ed. Death i in fifteen minutes after an injection of yellow fever or any other Viru3, said death being due to multiplication i of a germ in the blood, is so extremely improbable that it may almost be said to be impossible, j - If Dr. Freire's i theories were even approximately correct, the vicinity of the New Orleans ! cemeteries should be pestiferous, and the disease should start and spread from there, which is not the casu. - : . . No doubt Dr. Freire has seen minute organisms, but they werelthe common owganisms of putrefaction, and 'we probably must wait awhile longer for the identification of the specific germ of yellow fever.

"wolf1 this time is a genu ine cry of distress. There are many farmers in Anson, Richmond, Robeson and Bladen counties who would be glad to compromise on a half crop of corn and cotton this year. The yield of cot ton will depend considerably on a late Fall and at present the outlook is the othei way. , Only a Farmer's Daughter.: Mr. C. R. Gardiner, the well known New York manager, ha3 deposited with the Fidelity Company of New York an insurance policy for all the members of Only a Farmer's Daughter Company. The total amount is for $50,000 and covers accidents of any nature that may occur during the season of firty five weeks ami is undoubtedly a judicious investment.

Her officers report that the river is very low and that yesterday it wa3 falling at the rate of an inch per houri They state that the government hands, who are working to improvo the river naviga tion, have constructed a jetty at Cypress which proves to be of much advantage, as the Hurt came past the difficulties at that point without trouble , or delay. They met the government boats, which were on their way op the river to Eliza bethtown. where they will begin work at once upon the shoals at that point. These latter are bad shoals and ( have always been a source of great annoy ance to steamboatmen at a low stage of water. I Police tteport for August.

The September Skies. The planets will not be on dress pa rade this month. Venus, the leader-of the brilliant train, is entirely out cf sight during the whole month. Her conjunction with the sun occurs on the twentieth, and she will not be visible till October, when she, will appear J as evening star. Jupiter,! next to Venus ia brilliance, does not rise until about 2 o'clock, and ia the chief morniDg star. It is easily distinguished from the other stars by its brightness and steady lustre, but seekers who need further directions will find it near the twins, Castor and Pollux, in the East ern'oky. ' - Mars is also morning star, being in the Western part of the constellation Gemini, about an hour before Jupiter. Saturn is the earliest of the lot,- except Mercury, who, tb the ordinary observ er, doesn't count. He rises with the Hyades about 10:30." .It is said that Mercury will be .visible nextj week on perfectly clear evenings, very near the horizon, about 7 o'clock, at 8 degrees South of the East point.. .All these planets of course rtse earlier during the latter part of tho month. 7 4 ; The so called .fixed stars make u p by their brilliancy for the shortcomings pt the planets. Arctnrus is blazing away in the western sky. V ega 13 straight overhead early in the evening, Altair occupies his usual position near the Milky Way, not far from the celestial undertaking establishment where Job's coffin has been waiting these many years with a patience more than worthy of its namesake, j Antarcs glows red in the8outh, and in the eastern sky ap pear the precursors of the great fall and winter procession of celestial monarchs. The Pleiades rise before 9 o'clock, the Hyades soon after 10; and by midnight the "great and only", Orion, the f be jewelled hunter of the skies, comes after the raging Taurus', accompanied by! his little dog. Still laterr the diamond of the celestial expanse. Sirius.' before whom all others pale ; tneir ineffectual fires,' appears flashing above the eastern horizon. The moon will be full before the middle of the month. .The sun will continue to shine as ' usual, with more or less violent disturbances in spots. A man who claims to be an. Indian from Alaska, has been on our streets for the past two or three days exhibits ing four canary birds which perform many curious and entertaining tricks tp the delight ot the small boy. J . Hogs vs. Horses. Dear Review. If the city prohibits us from keeping a pig on our lot, why don't they prevent us from keeping cows and horses? One is as necessary as the other, and the poorer classes are dependent npon their ,4 pigs for their meat. Let-them require clean , pens, but dont take our pigs. Fine a man who keep3 a pen .that is offensive but let him raise his meat. I will never vote for a man who advocates this step. Yours trnly, A Voter.
