Fire at Hose Hill. At about 1 o'clock yesterday after noon the grist mill and cotton gin ot Mr. D. T. Carr, at Rose Hill. Duplin county, caught fire accidentally and were 'totally destroyed Fortunately the wind was in the right direction to blow the flames from other buildings, in consequence cf which Mr. Carr's dwelling was .saved No other property was destroyed. We have beeh unable to gather particulars as to the amount of loss or whether the property was in sured or not. First National Bank. The 19ih annual meeting of the stock holders of the First National Bank of Wilmington was held at their banking rooms in this city, at 11 o'clock to-day. The meeting was organized by calling Mr. H. A. Burr to thechair and request" ing Messrs. M. J. Heyer and Wm Larkins to act as Secretaries. Tbe following gentlemen were elect ed as directors for the ensuing year, viz: Alfred Martin, D. G. Worth, James Sprunt, George Chadbourn, and E. E. Burruss, all reelections. Oakdale Cemetery. The lot owners of Oakdale Cemetery, held their annual meeting for the election of officers to serve for the edsuing year at the office of the Secretary, hist night. Mr. Wm. A. French was called to the chair and Mr. R J. Jones acted as sec retary. The minutes of the last meet ing were read and approved, after which an electiou of officers was held, resulting in the re-election of the entire old board, as follows: President Donald McUae. Directors Edward Kidder, George R. French. W. .1. Yopp, Dr. A. J. De Rosset, J. HJ Chadbourn and W. H Northrop. Secretary and Treasurer R. Jones. Superintendent T. Donlan. A Villainous Attempt. A dastardly attempt was made to wreck the Atlantic Coast Line mail and passenger train as it neared Richmond last Sunday morning. The train is due in Richmond at about 6 o'clock and a few minutes before that time, as it was crossing tbe long bridge over the James river, between Manchester and Richmond, the engineer espied a heavy plant laid across the track, just about midway of the bridge. The engine struck the obstacle fairly and squarely and tore it into fragments, fortuuately withont leaving the track. There was considerable excitement but no danger was done There was a number of Wilmingtonians on board at tbe time and it is from one of these, who ha& re turned to the city, that we learn of these .acts. At last accounts there was no clue as to the identity of the villain who attempted this outrage. It was a fort unate and providential escape as but few would probably have lived to tel1 the tale had the train left the bridge at that point. The Tramps! We are apt to complain, and with good reason, of the annoyance occa sioned by wandering, vagrant, vaga bond tramps, but the vexation to our citizens is barely nothing when com pared with the trouble they cause the railroad conductors. The railroads are lined with these apparently aimless, wandering tramps, and they work all sorts of games and run all sorts of risks jn order to obtain a ride Jree of cost. They manage to get upon the cow catcher, in front of the mail, express t r baggage cars, on top of tbe coaches, and in fact almost anywhere to escape observation, and sometimes manage to ride long distances before they sre de tected. We heard of one who was found a day or two since on the'front of the engine, a few miles from the city, on one of the trains coming from the South, who acknowledged that he had rode about 50 miles. He had no money with which to pay hi3 passage and when told that he must get off', had tbe check to implere the conductor not to take him off asie wanted to go North and didn't want to miss connection at Wilmington. He missed. Railroad men say that there appears to be as many going North as there are those who are bound South, and that they cause ten-fold more trouble and annoy ance than the regular passengers. Eeyief. Wilmiiigtoo Light Infantry. The meeting of the Wilmington Light Infantry, held at their Armorv under the City Hail building last night was very fully attended, nearly every memoerof tbe corps being present. The purpose of the meeting was to elect officers to serve for tbe ensuing year. Capt. R. II. Beery, who had s r ved the company so faithfuly for the past year, declined a re-election and he was made an honorary mem ber and placed on the list of reserves. A ballot for Captain was then taken which resulted in the elec tion of Col. J. T. Anthony to be Captain. When informed of his elec tion Col. Anthony entered the Armory and expressed in fitting terms his ap preciation ot the honor conferred upon him by electing bim to the command cf a corp3 whose record had become historic. He stated that he had recent ly been elected Colonel of the fourth regiment of the North Carolina State Guard and that, if his resignation of that position would be accepted, he should be proud to take command of the corps which had ttA honored him. Pending action upon hisnresignation of Colonel, he, as a detached officer, wil take command ot the Infantry. Second Lieutenant J. C. Morrison was promoted to be First Lieutenant vice W. C. Joues, recently promoted to be Colonel. Ensign F. A. Lord was promoted to be Second Lieutenant, vice J. C. Mdrrison, promoted, (borporal R.'L Allem was promoted to be En sign, vice F. A. Lord, promoted. Dr. W. E. Storm was elected Surgeon and Rev. J. Carniichael, I). D., was elect ed Chaplain. CIVL OFFICERS The following civil officers were then elected to servo for the ensuing year: Chairman W. E Storm. Assistant Chairman W. S. Briggs. Secretary and Treasurer M. N. Harriss. Finance Committee Geo. D. Pars ley, H. Cronenberg and D. T. Cronly. Committee on Applications J. L. Cantwell, F. A. Lord and ft. H. Mc Ilhenny. Four members were admitted and lhe company is in a most flourish! condition. Not at Present. It has been rumored upon tbe streets for several days that the Cornet Con cert Club intended going to Charlotte to repeat the concert which was, recently given here w ith so much success. The plan has been to have all those who participated in the concert here, both in jt r amenta lists and vocalists, attend, but W3 learn that the idea has been found to be impractible at present. They may possibly be able to go at some fu ture dav, and we hope that they may make it convenient to visit Charlotte and give her citizens an entertainment, showing what the musicians of Wil mington can do. The talent that was displayed at the last concert here was excellent, and we are confident that few cities in the South can furnish an amateur musical entertainment of su perior merit. There is not a doubt that the good people of Charlotte would generously appreciate the efforts of the Club, and would give them a rousing house and a cordial reception. "Et lu Brute," as the young lady who had just carried off the honors from a fashionable boarding school said when her mischievous beau swallowed the last spoon! ull of Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup.
