Blackburn's administration thus: He was borne into office by a wave of sen- timentalism, and scotimcntalism has been the characteristic feature of his term of oflicc. He is a man of uu- doubted honesty, but he has continually allowed his sensibilities to rnn away with his judgment. - Gov. Blackburn's apology for par doning so many criminals in Kentucky was that the jails and penitentiaries ! that rich and prosperous common wealth rivalled the horrors of the Black Hole of Calcutta. Indeed, the Governor says they rivalled Sodom and Gomorrah. In justifying himself. Gov. Blackburn forgot that he branded his State with disgrace. Lieutenant A. W. Greely was born in Newburyport, Mass., March 27, 1844, and entered the 19th Massachusetts Regiment in August, 1881.

I There is much dullness about the City Court room in these latter days, every body seeming to! be oh; his good be havior until after the circus is over. The difference between the sun and a Wilmington boot! black is simply this: The sun shines tor nothing, but the boot black must have five cents.

He has had considerable experience in this line heretofore and understands that -there are laree profits, in the business. He speaks of employing shepherds to watch the sheep during the day and to fold them at nightfall, and will get some imported colley dogs to guard the flock." In this connection it may. be remarked that the dogs are credited with ja great deal more mischief than they are actu ally guilty of. Th. two-legged dogs, we have been informed, aroivorse some, times than their four-legged brethren.; i- There seems to be a plenty of mast in the woods in this section this Fall, but then who has the hogs to eat UP.

A sailor on board the Norwegian barque SuWjclnia, Capt. s Sorensen, noV at anchor off Smithville, fell from one of thetop-gallant yards of that vessel yesterday to the deck. He struck several pieces of rigging in, hs descent which so far broke the force of jhis fall as to prevent his being instantly killed.

Clark; General Freight and Passenger Agent of the Seaboard Air Line Railroad System , returned last night from a protracted visit to Boston, where he has been engaged in the interest of the roads which he rep resents, i He has also noticed very closely the exhibitions made by the sev eral States, and in his comparison ktk rrniinii stands far! ahead of any otherjn the production of her soils and mines. He was surpnseu wnen ho saw the products of North Carolina micacked and placed on exhibition, and could hardly .credit he fact that what he saw, all came from With in our own borders. In, minerals and woods our exhibition far, exeeded any; -other, nnri crflms and precious stones. so f ar as I regards size qual- itv ind variety, we were far ahead oi all the other States combined. In me chanical appliances and their products New England shows to the best advan taze. but in every product of the soil or the earth under the soil North Carolina had no successful competitor. This was not simply the opinion of the many North Carolinians who were present, and who might be accused of an. over State Tjride. but it was the WW ' j universal sentiment, uttered by people from every section of the country. The display was such that to particularize would fill a volume, ana u can bij ub spoken of in general terms ot praise which it would be almost impossible to eextravagant. f Ui- i . t . 5 Slender necked woman can aid the rid: collar1 now worn with ribbon loons, while their plumper aisters wear nothin ornamental save the collar but- lon,vf hich may be aa'sniall asi their purses will allow I lender Crops. r iMr. Jesse Bowden, of Ashetbn, Pen- der county, who was in the city yester day, confirms the reports already . pubs lished by us as to diaastera to the crops. He says that in his opinion there -will not" be a hall-crop of earn and cotton made in his section. A month ago the prospect was very good, but since then the rains and the winds have beat the crops down and the outlook is now really gloomy. Peanuts and potatoes are, however, doing well and the pros pects for these two crops are very good' The Cfrcus at italeijcli. Sells Bros'., Circus exhibited jn Ral eigh on Monday afternoon and night aod notwithstanding 1 the , torrents i of rain which fell there were large crowds present at both performances. The News and Observer estimates that there were 3,500 people under the tents in the afternoon and 3,000 at night.

There was as may be iinagined. n. end ol discomfort and annoyance, far more to the performers than to the spectators. I for fair weather is one ol the -essentials. Taking the weather into consideration no visitor had cause for dissatisfaction. The show ot animals was notably good the hinuoowtami beii)ir ihc centre ot Attraction, The. animals were in good condition. The ring performance was deprived of much of its lite by the in cessant rain. The Ponalson Bios. were conceded to be the best contor tionists ever seen here! arid were liber ally applauded. .

But the event of the per formance was the bicycle riding by the Stirk family. It is a new feature ana certainly a pleasant one which Sells Bros, deserve credit lor introaucing. The two men. the Woman and the little child vied with each other in grace and acility of movement and delighted every spectator. At the evening performance aa au dience of some 3,000 saw the perform ance, their pleasure being unmarred by rain. The performance was hetter than in the afternoon, owing to the aosence of discomforts. - 4 Iiillington Kiver. 1 A large and enthusiastic meeting was held at Long Creek, on Saturday last, relative to the improvement of, Lilling- ton River. Robt, C. Johnson Esq. was chosen chairman and Bruce Williams Esq. secretary of the meeting, Capt. G. F. Walker has called upon, and spoke at length and with force j of the great good that had been accomplished by the last aDDronriation of Congress, and clearly showed that the work of devel ODincr the country adiacent to the c e? stream had onlv .fairly begun. His remarks iwere very interesting and in strnctiye. The following resolution., as reported by the committee, were adopted- Resolved. That while we r heartily appreciate the aid already extended onr section in improving Liiinngton River, yet from the greater good that might oe accompnsneu, we rcgreL jtuu present ! appropriation ot ' Congress limits the improvement only to the bridcre at the village. It is, tncrefore. the sense of this meeting, ! that 'should the clearing of the river proceed a lew miles above the bridge, as, orig inally" i i oontem plated . And ' . 1 w here the improvement is mostly neea ed , from " a -11 fe-long knowledge of the resources ol the country through which said stream passes, tnat an out let, being a necessity, will be afforded for a vast . undeveloped region ol timber, naval stores &c. , and that in addition, a large area of very rich and fertile land, now practically useless, would be brought into successful culti votion, and that this entire improve ment will afford a public highway tor commerce beneficial not alone to this vicinity but to this entire section, at large. . . . - Resolved, That a copy 01 inese reso lutions be sent to onr representative in Congress with lb request that he use his best efforts to secure the mrtner im provement ot Lillington River, as set forth in our resolutions, ! i ; Resolved, That we regret the tempo rary suspension of the 1 work on the river, so successfully begun, and hope the, same mav be renewed very soon, if such be the pleasure of the authorities in charge. . -.- , Resolved, That the : proceeding of this meeting be sent to the Daily Re view and Star, with a request that they pulish the same. -. ,s , :.
