President F. C. Miller.
Vice President G. Rosenthal.
Secretary John L. Dudley.
Medical Examiner Dr.; George G.
Thomas.
For the Needy.
We have been informed by a valued
subscriber to the Review that several
oases of extreme) destitution have been
called to his notice within the past day
or two. If any of onr readers can fur
n.sh us with authentic instances of par
ties in destitute and needy circumstan
ces tbey would confer a favor by leav
ing the name and residence at this
office, and steps wiil be taken to secure
prompt relief for the sufferers.
We Hope He Will Come.
It is said that Hon. Samuel J. Rans
dall will pay a visit to this section of
the South during the holiday recess of
Congress and we learn that an effort
will be made to induce him to stop one
day in Wilmington. Our people, and
really the people of the entire South,
are deeply indebted to him for the no"
ble cause he took in opposition to the
odious Civil Rights bill, and he would
be sure of a cordial welcome from our
citizens.
JusticesMeetinir.
The meeting of the Justices of the
Peace of New Hanover county, adver
tised in this issue to be held at the
Court House next Monday forenoon,
will be of especial importance and in
terest to our citizens, and it is hoped
that there may bo a very general at
tendance. Tho ajourned meeting which
will be held at 7:30 p. m. of the same
date, will also be of great importance,
and our citizens would do well to attend.

Cotton.
The receipts of cotton at this port for
the week ending wjth to-day foot up
3.593 bale3, against 3,471 bales for the
corresponding week last year, an in
crease this week of 122 bales. Tae re
ceipts of the crop year to date Soo up
97,110 bales, as against 74,708 bales to
Dec. 22d, last year, an increase this
year of 4.402 bales.
That Bijr Oyster.
That is a big oyster which appears to
day in Messrs. W. E. Davis & Son's
attractive advertisement and it is a fair
illustration of the . splendid New
Itiver oysters they are offering now to
the holiday trade. They have ordered
largely to meet the demand and dealers
and consumers both are requested to
send in their orders a3 early as possible.
For Christmas.
Tho attention of the ladie3 is invited i
to tho new advertisement of Misa E.
Karrer in this issue. She has many
beautiful things for the holiday trade
and the prettiest thing of all is that her
goods are useful as well a3 ornamental.
Her stock is large and varied and the
assortment i3 very handsome and there
are articles there adapted for the young
folks as well as for their elders. , '
The Herald.
Elsewhere wiil be found the adver
tise oi cut of the New York Weekly
Herald, a paper which presents in one
sheet the news of the week, the world
over. The weekly is worthy of the
daily and the value of the latter and its
position in iournalism i3 known of all
men, in all civilized lands. As it is
useless for us to attempt to paint the
jrose or to whitewash the lily so we
must content ourselves with merely in
viting the attention of our readers to the
advertisement as it appears in this
issue.

A Fearful Experience.
On Thursday last two boys, aged
about 13 years, living at Masonboro
Sound, named respectively Clinton
Hewlett and George Costin, went out
on a gunning expedition with a boat.
They went up the Sound about 4 miles
and ran the boat into a creek, where
tbey landed and Went ashore. They
succeeded in capturing a coon and
when tbey returned to the boat the
tide had receded and they found it im
possible to get her afloat. Their cloth
ing was wet as were also the matches
which they had carried with ''them, so
that they were unable to start a fire ft
finally they were compelled to lie down
beside a log for the night. They had
two dogs with them and through the
warmth of these one of the boys man
aged to keep some degree of warmth
while the other suffered extremely from
tbe intense cold of the night.
As night approached and the
boys did nonreturn their parents be
came naturally very much alarmed and
started out with the neighbors to hunt
for them. One of the searchers, Mr.
James Walton, hunted for them nearly
all night and discovered them yester-'
day morning a3 they were trying to
launch their boat. He assisted them
home, but when they reached the land
ing place both bojs were unable to move
and had to be carried to their homes.
We are glad to state that both are
much better to-day and in a fair way
of recovery. They had a fearful expe
aience. All the keys of Windsor Castle were
recently stolen, but even this does not
interfere with the rapid sale of Dr.
Bull's Congh Syrup.
White Shad.
The Newbern Journal pt the 16th
inst. brags because there were three
white shad in that market en the day
before, and in mentioning the matter
goes on to state :hat they hare bee a
caught as early in the season as the
2Gth ofNovember. This was in the
year 1375. It u undoubtedly quite
early in the season for Newbern people
to have white shad, but here in Wil
mington we had them on the 2nd of
November, 1883. They wero caught at
the fishery of Messrs W. E. Davis &
Son, and were noticed at the time and
no great fuss was made about it either.
Our Advice.
No, young man; the best and safest
way to obtain a fortune is not by
speculating in stocks in Wall street.
You might make a fortune, and you
mightn't, with the chances strongly in
favr of the latter. The best way to
make a fortune is to work for it. Good,
faithful, sturdy work, well laid on, is
the only certain way and that is not
only the surest, but it is the very best
thing in all creation for all the moral
mental and physicial ailments of which
you may be possessed. Six days of
good labor every week for fifty two
weeks in the year, with tho practice of
reasonable economy, wiil not only keep
the wolf from the door, but you will
find yourself with some money in your
puree with which to beg is the next
year. Follow this through the week
and go to church regularly on Sunday,
be just to yourself and all the rest of
creation, keep your face and hands
clean, love your wife, take the Daily
Review, read it carefully and pay for
it promptly like a man and you will
live long, be respected, and die happy
in the glorious thought that you have
been a good and useful citizen.
