In accordance with the announce ment made yesterday there was a joint meeting of the Produce Exchange. Chamber of Commerce and Board of Trade held at the roorus of the first named organization at 12 30 this after noon. Besides these there were a mini bcr of citizens present. The object of I he meeting was to listen to the purposes and plans ol the Stale Exposition, which is to be opened at Ualcigh on the first of October next,' from Mr. W. S. Primrose, President of the Exposition company, who, wun Mr. 11. Jb. rie? Secretary, and Mr. S. G, Worth. Fish Commissioner of the State, were present. The meeting was organized by calling Mr. Charles H. Robinson to the chair and appointing Col. J. L. Cautwell Secretary. The meeting being duly organized Mr. W. S. Primrose was called upon to state the objects, expectations and plans of conducting the exposition, which he did in an able, terse and force ful manner. He reviewed rapidly the changes which have taken place in North Carolina since, andj as a legiti mate result of tho War; spoke of the resources of, tho State which have been developed, the new industries which had successfully and pre viously been encouraged and of the in calculable benefits accruing to North Carolina on account of its'magnigficent and exhaustive display at the Boston exposition. He then proceeded to de monstrate to his bearers ,that.thed van tages derived by our exhibit at the Bos ton exposition would ba maintained and improved upon by an exposition in our own State, in which tho products ot every county, should take a part thus giving iuformation to tho thous ands of visitors from abroad who would be present, an adequate idea of our vast and varied resources from which each might select the iudustry in which to invest bis labor or capital, or both, as best suited bis inolina'ion. He then stated the plans by which it wa3 nronosed to make the exposition a . complete success and of the most prac tical Valued to the people of the State. It wa3 desired that'each county should bo represented by its products under the charge of com petent men. Tho grounds of the State Agricultural Society have been rented for the exposition and the platform buildings are now in course of preparation which will be suitable for the proper display of the products of tho State," by counties. Every ar rnnt-Rment was being made as near perfect as possible for tho storage and Htanlftv ot rjrodacts. and the citi- zens of Raleigh were making ample preparation for the accommodation of the thousands of guests who would un doubtedly be present at tho exposition. Tho remarks of Mr. Primrose were listened to with profound attention and much interest. After he had concluded, Mr. S. G. Worth, State Superintendent of Fish and Fisheries, made a short but inter esting address, in which he urged upon the people ot Wilmington the impor tance of the fishing interest of Eastern North Carolina and especfally ol New Hanover county, and hoped that that industry would bo a prominent feature of the Exposition. He also stated that ho would establish a shad hatchery in or near tho city, and exhibited several photographic views of the fishing in dustry in other sections of the State. His remarks were interesting and in structive, i It was then voted unanimously by the meeting to ask the Board ol County Commissioners to appropriate a sum, not exceeding $500, to be used imme diately in forwarding the interests ol New Hanover county at the Exposition; should this sum provo inadequate to increase the amount as the exigencies of tho 2aso may demand through a joint meeting with the Board of Magistrates. Mr. B. G. Worth then offered the following prcamb'e and resolution: Wiiekcas. Believing that the Ex position to bo held in the city of Raleigh will be highly beneficial to the whole State of North Carolina, we feel it both a duly and privilege to do what wo can to further tho efforts which are being put forth to make it a complete success. licsolvcd. That a committee of three, consisting of Messrs. Charles II- Rob inson, J. H. Currie and B. F. Hall, be appointed to accompany the representa tives of the Exposition now in the city, Messrs. Primrose and Fries, in waiting upon.our citizens for privato subscrip tions! The meeting then adjourned. - Aycr'a Hair Vigor stimulates the hair cells to healthy action, and promotes a vimmn- ffrowtl).

Street Improvements. The pavers have discontinued work on Norlh Water street for the present, aitnougu mere arc paving uiocts in abundance, and arc working, when the weather permits, to finish the paving of Dock street. This latter will probably bo concluded irra day or two. and then we hope there will be nothingto prevent pushing the work on North Water street to ! completion without any further delay. . TlioMay Manhattan. In the May number will appear the first instalment of a powerful story entitled "Trajau," which will be con tinued for about a year. It will be handsomely illustrated. The American characters will iu many cases be re cognized as persons who were promi nent in Paris during the closing years of the reign of Napoleon the Third. The foreign characters are those notable personages who were players in the game which resulted in the checkmate of Imperial power and the establish ment of the French Republic. A bright current of fact and fancy, with strong dramatic action, will cause this pro duction to recall some works of one of the. masters of English fiction. The openicg chapters will give but a fore taste of what may be expected as the narrative goes on. Last of Jurors. i The Spring term of tho Ltnited States District Court will convene; at tho U. S.

An einp'oyee at the Asylum here drew a fifth of the second capital prize of $25,000, in the Grand Drawing of the Louisiana State Lottery, last Tuesday, February 12th, and not the whole $25. 000 as the newspapers and he would like ; to have it. We would give the name of tho lucky man, but don't know whether ho cares about having his namo published. The excitement around Morganton, N. C, and the ea gerness with which the newsppapers were scanned to find the name of the for tunate ticket holder of No. 99.353. re vealed tho fact that numbers of our citizens who would never have been suspected of investing in lotteries, held tickets in Tho Louisiana State Lottery at New Orleans. The 107th drawing will take take place on Tuesday, April 8th, when $262,500 will be scattered in prizes under Gen'ls Beauregard and Early's management. All information will be given by M. A. Dauphin.
