The Viceroys ot the Empire have been called upon to equip and recruit a force of 120,000 meu. A new departure in the Boston pub lic schools was set on foot last week in the order passed by the school com mittee to fit up a school for instruction of boys in the use of tools. Tho amount of Florida's crop of Sea Island cotton last year was 18,054 bale?. According to the Jacksonville Times Cnion's figures the crop thi3 year will hardly reach 13,000 bales. The 3Iacon Telegraph and Messenger favors the eleetion of Samuel J. Ran.. (tail for Speaker, and therefore the T. M. runs the risk of being read out of the party hy some of the latter-day saints. : Aliss Chamberlain, tho American heauty, is being crowded pretty close oter in England by Miss Adelaide Dctchon, who i3 chaperoned by Mrs. I.aboucbere. Both are from Cleveland. - A Philadelphia tailor says thc Knick erbockers will first bo U3ed exclusively for full dresa, with he regulation swallow-tail coat. Tbe material will be the finest broadcloth and the stockings black silk. It is not generally known that the Cotton Exposition to be held in New Orleans in December, 1884, is to cele brate the exportation of the first bale of cotton from this country. It was sent to England in 1784. The North as well as the South is afflicted. The Philadelphia Press says : 'The Committee on Frauds of the Committee of One Hundred are still in - receipt of reports of illegal practices in the recent election." . , Colonel Tom Ochiltree, having re turned from Mexico, declared that he lias discovered at Saltillo "the finest climate in the wortd." In bis opinion all tho invalids in the world . could not stretch themselves on belter beds of roses than those at Saltillo. . ; : - " The official vote of Pennsylvania at the recent election was: For auditor general.

Prohibitionist, 6,687; Mareh, Greenback, 4,431. . The Baltimore Sun has this to bay : "To the most careless readers it is evN dent that while nominally intended for Virginia, Senator MahoncV address to the Readjuster party is directed to a wider audience, and is meant to serve as a campaign document in the Fall of 1884. The formal transfer of his alle fiance to the Republican party is ac companied with what may be regarded as a threat against his former Demo cratic friends.'" . The next issue of Swinlon, Story Teller, is to contain features that will make it gpecially attractive as a Thank? i giving number. It is to present a fullpage frontispiece by AlfredFredencs.illustrs- tiveof Hawthorne's, beautiful tale of John InglefiekTs Thanksgiving"; a characteristic original story by Harriet PrescoU Spofford, entitled "Something to be Thankful for"; and an original toi hv Ella Wheeler, called "John Smith; or. Two Thanksgivings." -. The President has been informed by ihe Commissioner of Internal Revenue that his first estimate of the receipts for that Department was too small. la stead of $120,000,000, Mr. Evans es timates that the receipts this fiscal year w;ll not U less than S 130.000.000 These figures, w ith those giving the customs receipts, indicate that the re daction of revenue that the revised tar iff and internal revenue bill of last win ler was designed to make will be very jnucix less than was expected. It looks ?ry much as though the surplus would not be less than $130,000,000! for this year, or just about tho amount that the Internal Revenue Department srill turn over to the Treasury. i The nearest collateral descendants of Washington are said toJ be two cousins, who keep np the old family place in Eastern Virginia.

I , ; ' I W hen are we to have rain ? is thc ques tion i a the mouth of almost every one. We are not able to answer the ques tion, but weknow it is much needed as the streets are miserably dry and dirty and some of the cisterns a re dry. On Saturday, November 14lh, 1729. we are told that there were only about 10,000 inhabitants ib North Carolina. Tha: was just 154 years ago and at that time Wilmington wasnqt, a3 the town was not laid out until four years later, in 1733. I We had the pleasure of a. visit yester day from Mr. Frank L.

Raymond i3 an excellent comedian ; he had a first rate play last night, and was supported by a good company. There was not a poor actor among them. "In Paradise") is a laugh able production, full ot grotesque situa tions, and replete with mirth-pirovoking dialogue, which kept the auldience last night in continuous roars of laughter. Mr. Raymond is the centra! figure in the plot, and his acting was inimitable. Miss Lizzie Creese, "as Miss lYiscilla Flagg, was superb.1 and by far the best fem'ale elocutionist wje have ever heard on a Southern stage. While all the other characters were "well portrayed, she, although ' personating a di fficuit role, did exceptionally well,.-showing that she had-the advantage of experi ence, careful study and patient training in her profession. i Mr. Raymond al ways travels with a good company1 and he may be always sure of a good bouse in Wilnitogton. : f - THE E LECTINS.

He had com plained for some weeks of pains in the heart and bead and had been very des ponding at times, going so far as to threaten to destroy himself. On ac count ot these threats and the fact that his mind had been somewhat impaired for several months, his family and friends bad watched his conduct, fear ing that he might put his threatsinto exe cution. There was nothing unusual about his conduct or appearance last night to indicate such a speedy death. A physician was summoned who gave congestion of the brain produced hy an overdose of laudaum as the cause of death, but inconsequence of a variety of rumors, a Coroner's inquest was held at 4 o'clock this afternoon, but had not concluded its labors and rendered its verdict wh3n our report closed. The deceased was between 46 and 45 years of age ; was an Irishman by birth and came to Wilmington about 6 years ago on the Revenue Cutter CoIfaxm He had been married about 2 years and leaves a widow and one child. Ladies' Benevolent Society. We were unable yesterday to give any report of the meeting of the above named Society, further than to name the officer who were all re-elected. We have not detailed reports of the several officers, but have been very kindly furnished with an abstract of both pro- ceedinss and reports which will be of - , interest to many of our readers. The meeting was opened with prayer by Rev. F. W. E. Peschau, who afters wards made an appropriate address which, although the number in attend ancewasnotso large as usual, was much enjoyed by those present. The firot Tuesday in December is the time aDDoioted for the allotment of visitors to their several wards. Numer ous donations, which have been added during the year to the' amount sub" scribed, have enabled the managers to purchase provisions, blankets, flannel and other clothing to the; -amount oY nearly $200.. Quite a ; considerable supply of wood was also given, through the Society, to the many needy- persons inourmidst. ?. ; The Society have requested Rev. Mr. Peschau to repeat,, for its benefit, his 1 lecture entitlied, The Cemetery of the Sea," and ha has kindly consented; the time and place, to be 1 made knows hereafter. - . - - i .- To Builders and others- Go to Jaoo bi's for Sash, Blinds and Doors,, Glats, &c You can get all sizes and - tX tit lowest prices." - 5 -:.-: ;'ri-' NEW ADVERTISEMENTS White Embroidered Flannels From SI per yard to very fine.

Tho piece was very nicely put ou tte stago, and acted Throughout in a splendid manner. Mr George Learock's Rochester was a truly artistic pieceof work., and highly ap preciated. Mr. - W. - Yerance played Achille Be Leon with a naturalness and unintentional humor that was very amusing, and created continuous laugh ter. 1 1t was a decided hit. The suc cess of the new "Jane Eyre" is most marked, and it will, no doubt, have a brillaat run. x i . i Reserved seats opens at Dyer's Sat urday moruiug, Nov. 24th. 8 a, m. The street brigade are ballasting the streets as fast as can be reasonably, ex pected, and we are glad to see the work go on. Chestnut street will soon be ballasted as far East as Sixth street, and we hope before many months to see some of thc streets runningparrallel with the river improved in the same manner. Fifth and Sixth streets would be much benefited by-. being 'well bal lasted, and the numoer of good drives in the city would be increased thereby. Seventh ' street, which is dest ned to be one ot our most popular thoroughfares, and is rapidly coming into notice as a favorite resort for-pleasure carriages, has been sawdu3ted its entire length, and it needs only good ballast to make it out ot the most pleasant thor-j oughlares in the city. It is level, ide, and free from the noise which prevails nearer the river and centres of trade, and - being located upon the higher portions ot the city, gives opportunities for breathing the pure and exhileratiog atmosphere. . .
