MARCH 10, Chicken Stealing On Saturday night some of the gang of chicken thieves that infest the city visited the Dremises of (Jant. J. M. 1 s r - - McGowan, on Orange street, between Seyenth and Eighth, and robbed him of four geese and the same number of chickens. They also visited the adjoin ing premises of Mr. John Tbees and stole all the chickens from his coop. Poultry ought to be cheap, but it isn't. A Crreen Old Age. Mr. Johu S. James, father of the! publisher of the Review, celebratedlo day the 79th anniversary of his birth day, he having been born io this county on the 10 h day of March, 1806. It is but a short time since he and his wile celebrajted the 50 h anniversary of their wedding day and we congratulate the venerable couple on this occasion on their good health and hope that they may be spared many years in the calm enjoyment of life's declining sun. Ttie Insurance Law. The insurance law, which has passed both houses and is now the law, is to thi3efjec: It reduces the license tax on insurance companies from $125 to $50. It repeals the law requiring all insurance companies to make $10,000 deposit before doing busiuess in tbe State. It permits persons in this State to go out oi the State and insure in foreign companies, whether said com panies have paid taxe3 in North Caro lina or not. and rendering valid all suc contracts. It repeals the ''loss" clause and the ' average" clause, but does not touch the "three-fourths value" clause This Morning's Fire. At a few minutes after 9 o'clock this morning fire was discovered under the roof at the Northwest corner of tbe residence of Mrs. James Dawson, on the corner of Front and Chestnut streets The alarm was immediately given and in a few monmcnts the stroots were alive with people hurrying to the scene. Smoke was issuing from under the eaves all around the building, showing that the fire was as yet confined to that portion of tho house immediately under the roof. In a few moments streams of water were being thrown upon the flames and in a short iime alj signs of fire had disappeared. The damage to the house was iBconsidera bie, and that chiefly by water. The furniture was badly damaged by the immense rolumes of water which del uged the building. The loss was fully covered by insurance in companies rep resented in this city by Messrs. North rop & Hodges. Kcllpse of the Sun. On Monday next, ihe 16th inst., will occur the annual eclipse of the sun. visi ble here as a partial eclipse. It will begin about 1 1 :40 a. m. and ed about 2:18 p. m. It is the return of the an nular eclipse of February 12th. 1831. In 1831 the central line passed over Texas in a Northeasterly direction, be. ing last yisible on this continent in parts of North Carolina and Virginia. At this return the path will be much far ther North. The eclipse will be annu lar over a line from Cape Mendocino, California, in a latitude 40 deg. to Greenland in latitude 71 deg. It is estimated that tho eclipse will be annu lar over a path about seventy miles wide. The only towns of consequence in the United States within this belt are Eureka, California, and Bozeman Montana. At St. Paul, the eclipse will obscure five sixths of the sun, but will not be annular. At Chicago seyen tenths ot the sun will be hidden. From Rochester, N Y., the obscuration will be s mewbat less, but sufHsient to ren der the eclipse a most interesting event The eclipse will be annular because the cone of the moon's shadow does not reach the earth. It will appear an nular at those places nearly in the line of the point of the cone. In an annn lar eclipse a ring of sunlight surrounds the moon's shadow, the moon being at such a distance that it does not cover the whole of the sun's disc. Until re cent years annular eclipses have been neglected by astronomers; but during tbe last one some very important 3b servations were made by the French astronomers, and it is probable that some effort will be made to observe the coming eclipse. Efforts will be made to photograph the eclipse during its en tire progress, if the sun is not wholly obscured by the clouds.

Bates, ol 41 Park Row,! New York city, has issued a Demo- cratic souvenir, which is exceedingly happy in design an J beautiful in execu tion. It is a lithographic print of a size suitable tor framing. The upper corners contain large oval portraits of Cleveland and Hendricks, which are the most lifelike and accurate of any that have heretofore been published. Between them is a half-length portrait of Samuel J. Tilden, and in the back- ground. behind the Sage of Gram ercy, ' is a dislan view of the National Capital. Below this Thomas Jefferson, the father of the Democratic party, is represented with the Declaration ot Independence in his hands, while in the distance Independence Hall is seen. Andrew Jackson and General George B. McClellan are represented in military costume in the lower corn ers, while to the right and left are ideal representatives of tbe army and navy Taken as a whole this souvenir is an artistic and interesting production. Fly Traps and Pitctier Plants An exchange says : "There are some very curious plants in the island of Madagascar. The sensitive plant, growing in abundance about 100 miles south of Tamatave, is a conspicuous object, with its delicate flowers resem bling tufts of pink threads and its high ly sensitive leaves and leaf stalks. When touched the leaves immediately fold themselves up, and then the leaf stalk falls, almost hiding tbe leaves un der tho branches of tbe plant. Tho pitcher plant also grows in the marshes along the east coast, but generally out of sight among the rushes and sedges at the water side. At tho end of each leaf, which narrows to a mere stalk at the tip, it carries a vaso like excres cence very much resembling a pitcher, with lid and all complete. This pitcher see.va provided for the ptirposeof keep ing the leaves well supplied with mois ture, as a considerable quantity ot wa ter is often found in these receptacles." Are not these the same as our Ve. nus fly try and pitcher plant? If so. what is the use of going to Madagascar (or plants that grow in profusion in the woods near Wilmington?" List of Letters.
