We learn of a very serious attack made this afternoon by a dog on a lad by the name of Walter Sylva, son of Mr. JoseDh Sylva. The young fellow was sailing a kite in the street, over in Brooklyn, when he was attacked by the dog, a large and fierce animal, and was badly bitten on the right ear, which was I much torn. A physician was summoned and the necessary surtfcal attention was rendered. Increased Fact 1 tics. We are glad to learn that a daily mail service is to be placed on the star route between Rocky Point and Point Caswell via Long Creek. This is due. it is said, to the exertions of our very clever and able Congressman. Hons Wharton J Green. Thi3 will result we hope, in a large accession of snbt scribers to the Daily Review, which has now, wc make bold to assert. larger list at each of ' tho threo points Point Caswell , Long Creek and Rocky Point, than any other daily in the State can boast. Caro for Your Feet. Much food for thought i3 suggested in the advertisement ot Messrs Geo. JEt French & Sons, as published in this is sue. The old saying that to keep wel you must keep the head cool and tho feet warm. i3 true enough as far as it goes. But yoa must not only keep the feet warm but you must keep them dry Shoe dealers tells us that it is astonish ing how long some people will go with the soles of their shoes worn almost through, in damp weather as well as in dry weather. So long as the uppers hold out appearances are preserved and the foot is allowed to become. wet and to keep wet because the worn out sole is not visible to the casual eye. In all kinds ot weather the feet should receive tho utmost care and attention for it is throush them that many of the ills with which frail humanity-is afflicted enter into tho body. Tho feet should always be kept dry and kept warm. Tho Art Amateur for February contains a strikingly fine ideal portrait for oil painting, said to greatly resemble the famous American beauty, Miss Chamberlain. Other designs are a child's head, snow balls and hcpatlca for china painting; doilies and a portfolio cover for embroidery; marigolds for wood-carving, and. some charming figures for Valentino cards and sketching on linen. . Ulyscc Butin, a capital French painter of fishermen, receives biographical notice, and inter esting samples ot his work arc given. Specially attractive features .are the page of "rapid sketches" by theKiUKat Ciub, and the' illfistratcd articles on Alnia-Tadema's house and Cincinnati pottery. Montezuma's "Note Book," he musical and dramatic fcuillctons and Clarence Cook's criticism of the Thomas B. Clarke ricturcs are vigorous and entertaining. The practical depart ments are well filled, and the number ully maintains The Art Amateur's high standard of excellence. Price. 35 cents ; $4 a year. Montaguo Marks, Publish er, 23 Union Square, New York. Wake Forest Seml-Centennial. i Rev. W, L. Poteat writes as follows: "The exercises of Wake Forest In stitute" wero opened on the -first Mon day in February. 1831. It has been determined to celebrate this interesting and important event by the suspension of college work and by appropriate public addresses at the college, Monday, February 4, 1881. These fifty years have been, for the most part, years of struggle, but no less of permanent ad vancement, and, seen in the light of this development, the humble begin nings of half a century ago are worthy of the honor wo propose to put upon them. The semi centennial exercises will begin at 11 a. m., February 4th. You have already published the names of the gentlemen who are expected to take part. Tho programme speaks for itself, and, if it will not draw together a large number of the friends ot the college, we hope that the otherwise in (t resting occasion will."

In this court yesterday a verdict in the case of Rebecca Ann Hobbs, which was on trial when our report closed, i was rendered for the defendant late in ! the afternoon. j The court was then formally adjourn ed, after a session of three weeks. , Mr. Wifffflns Condition . It is distressing to learn that the lat est reports as to air. Eugene Wiggins condition are not encouraging. Capt O A. Wiggins returned here this morn ing from South Carolina, where he was summoned by the news of the acciden to his brother, and he reports his con dition as pot only serious, but alarming. The unfortunate gentleman still keeps in good spirits, but his wounds are simply fearful. The surgeons are stil hopeful,' however, that his good con stitution and excellent habits may serve to pull him through, and it 13 the earnest prayer of every one here, that their hopes may be fulfilled. Tho New Standard. The Revised Code,-has changed the standard of weights and measures. For the benefit of our readers we publish the law relating to them which it wil be well for our farmers and merchants to copy into their memorandums:. Section 3850.
