The Meeting: Last Ni&rut.
In pursuance of the call issued by the
Mayor a meeting of the tax-payers of
the city was held last night in the city
Court Room, which was well attended
The meeting was called to order by
Mayor Hall who explained it to be for
the purpose of obtaining the news of he
tax payers relative to the issue of $100.-
000 in thirty year bonds, which had
been ordered by the Board of Alder
men. The meeting was organized by call
ing uoi. vv. Ij. &mun to tne
chair, with Mr W. A. Willson as Sec
retary.
Mayor Hall submitted the draft of a
bill to be presented to the Gener-d As
sembly to ' enable the city of Wilming
ton to borrow a sum of money not ex
ceeding one hundred thousand dollars,
for the improvement ot the streets of
said city and the establishment of a
system of sewerage," at a rate of not
mosethansix per cent, interest and
payable thirty years after the date of
issue. The bill was read by the Secre
tary. The matter was debated by Mr, D.
MacRae and others. Mr. MacRae
moved that the action of thc Board ol
Aldermen, proposing to borrow $100.
000 for the impovement of the streets of
the city and to establish a system of
sewerage, be disapproved.
The motion ot Mr. MacRae, duly
seconded, was put to a vote and was
unaaimously adopted.
The meeting thereupon aeljourned.
A Fine Entertainment.
The Young People's Association con
nected with St. Paul's Lutheran Church
gave another of their really pleasant
entertainments at the Luther Memorial
Budding last night. The exercises were
entirely musical, and were both vocal
and instrumental. There was a good
attendance, though there were not so
many present as we woud gladly have
seen, as the entertainment was of real
merit in nearly every particular and
was well worthy a most liberal patron
age. In the absence of any programme
we cannot give the selections in fall,
and can only state in general terms
that it was a very pleasant occasion.
We remember the names ot some of
the participants whose efforts we would
gladly mention, but by doing so would
necessarily do injustice to those whose
names we do not recollect. Nearly all
the pieces were rendered by young lady
amateurs, some of whom had never
appeared iu public before, and when
due allowance is given for the slight
embarrassment which was in one or
two instances manifest, and for the in
experience of other?, it was an excep
tionally fine entertainment. We are
informed that a series of concerts of
like character is contemplated under
; tbe same auspices of which that of last
night was the first, and we really hope
that such may be the fact, for we know
of no better way in which oar young
j'adie9 and gentlemen can participate in
an innocent and elevating amusement

Pender Items.
From an esteemed correspondent and
subscriber in Pender county, we learn
that a meeting of the citizens of Pender,
Duplin and Onslow coun ies was held
on the 3rd inst., to take into considera
tion the extension of thc road now in
progress of construction across Angola
Pocosin so as to connect with the Qua"
ker Bridge road in. Onslow county'
Mr. K. F. Powers was called to the
Chair and Mr. A. E. Bcrtou was re
quested to act as Secretary. Mr. Gib
son Jamc?, by request of the Chair, ex
plained the object of tbe meeting, and
several short anel appropriate speeches
were made by some of those present in
advocacy of the movement, at the con
clusion ef which, on motion of Mr. It
Kinsey. a committee of three were ap
pointed to draft resolutions expressive
of the sense of the meeting. While the
committee on solutions were absent
the Chairman of the meeting was called
upon and addressed the people in an
appropriate and earnest manner, after
which the committee on resolutions
returned and reported thc following
preamble and resolutions .
Whereas, We, the citizens of Du
plin, PeBder anel Onslow counties, hav
ing been favored with legislative enact
ments for the construction of a public
road across Angola Bay, in Duplin
and Pender counties, and by the con
struction of the Quaker Bridge road,
through portions ot Onslow and Jones
counties, therefore, be it
Resolved, That we tender onr tbanks
to our faithful representatives for their
consideration of our petitions, and to
our honorable executives for their un
tiring efforts iu developing the public
interests of tbe above, named counties.
Resolved, That we petition the legis
lature, now in session, to extend; the
public road which is now being eon
structed across Angola Bay, by convict
labor, to the southwest terminus of the
Quaker Bridge road,, in On3low county.
Resolved, That the construction of
said road will fully elevelope the many
resources of the above named coanties.
Resolved. That it will shorten the
distance from portions of Onsiow coun
ty to Wilmington our best market
at least 20 miles, aud be the means of
makiegmnch property valuable which
is now worthless.
Resolved, That we, the people of the
eastern counties, have furnished con
victs iu sufficient numbers to reclaim
many acres of our swamp lands which
are now without value because of the
abundance ot water, and that we feel
entitled to a reasonable proportion of
the convict labor.
Resolved, That we suggest to tbe
people of Croom's Bridge, Pender
county, and of Tar Landing and
Catharine Lake, Onslow county, to
concur with us in a petition, asking the
Legislature to connect the road now
being constructed across Angola Bay
with the Quaker Bridge road in Ons
low county.
Resolved, That the Wilmington
Dailt Review be requested to publish
the proceedings ot this meeting and the
