The growth of the rubber industry in the United States during the pa3t ten years has been retnrkable. In 1875 the amount of crude rubber manufac tured into goods was 10,000,000 pounds East year the consumption reached 25,- 224,000 pounds. - One of the greatest libraries in this country is that of Adolph Sulro, the borer of the famous Sutro tunnel. Mr. Sutro has scoured Europe in search ol r.ariiies, and has now stored in San Francisco enough books to bring the titles alone up to 150,000. -- - Toe inhabitants of St. Petersburg consider themselves fortunate in hav ing had an average winter death rate o' only 35 per 1,000 of population; In London, where the rate has been re" cently 19.5. this would be thought epi demic. The usual rate for the Russian capi'al is 40 to 45. Some startling facts as to the loss of wealth by nat'ons in consequence ol sickness have lately been compiled. It is estimated that in England and Wales alone there is thus lost annually 20,000. 000 weeks1 work, or say as much as 20,000,000 healthy people would do in a week. According to the Indiana Fharmacist raw oysters not only have a remarka bly wholesome influence upon the di gestive organs, but are highly recom mended lor hoarseness. Many leading vocalists are said to ua them regularly in preparing lor their appearance in concerts or operas. The Bulletin de V Association Scien tifique reports 4,609 deaths from light ning stroke in France between the years 1835 and 1864. About t ice the number were seriously wonnded, and nvc times as many were struck. The hot years were the most fatal. Since 1664 there has been no death from lightning in the Department of the Seine. : Ex-Speaker Randall is confined to his bed, suffering from nervous exhaus tion. His system seems to be com pletely run down and his blood im poverished. Boils are breaking out over his body, and his physicians pre scribe immediate rest and abstention Irom all business and care till he re cuperates some strength, or they will not be responsible for the consequences- I tie report ol vital statistics lor 1684 in Prague give the birth rate at 45.12 Per 1.000 population. ' Of this perccnt- age 23.76 represents the legitimate and -I 36 the illegitimate births. It ia re garded as a curious fact that the death i re among the latter does not exceed that cf the former, and in this respect fragile is believed to stand alone. hen Proctor Knott made his fanci ,ui Ihiiuth speech fifteen years ago the wor of the thing tickled the entire continent. No one dreamed thet Do "tth would ever amount to anything, and when Knott called her "the para goo of cit-es" eqerybody laughed.

A minister of the Gospel at York. t Maine, advertises: "Marriages a spec, j ialty, acceptable at all hours; stranger? particularly invited." Vaccinnation with the microbe of leprosy is about to be undertaken in Honolulu, where the disease is spread ing to an alarming extent. The failure of the Exchange National Btnk of Norfolk, remarks the News and Observer, is probably a greater J calamity to the Albemarle section even than we had supposed. Generally, it may be stated, that there is not a farmer, lawyer, merchant or other man in that section with money, but to some extent did business with that institution. At Queen Victoria's last drawing room there were some splendid Eastern costumes, and an Italian lady, having kissed the Queen's hand, offered Her Majesty an Oriental salaam as she re tired, to the great amusement of the circle. This lady wore a quaint but very becoming Asiatic dress of white, with overdress richly embroidered with gold and a regular Eastern veil around her head. She blazed with diamonds. An unprinted letter of Charles Lamb's has come to light, giving his opinions on the relative value of Wordsworth's and Byron's work. It reads thus: "I never relished his lordship's mind. Why, a line of Wordsworth's is a lever to lift the immortal spirit. Byron's can only move a spleen. He was at best a satirist; in any other way he was mean enough. 1 dare say I do him injustice, but 1 cannot love him nor squeeze a tear to his memory." . o There is a Scottish Land league of America devoted to remedying ihe grievances of Scotch crofters. The exe cutive committee met in Chicago last week and decided to raise a subscrip tion of $20,000 before July 4 for the de fence of Crofters unduly evicted, the relief of the families of imprisoned crofters, and for agitation. Branch leagues will be established throughout the country and a pamph'et published called, "The Cry ol the Crofter," telling the story of the hardships of these poor tillers of a poorer soil. The mouth of the Mississippi has cost millions from first to last, It is a greedy mouth and will swallow green backs about as rapidly as they can be printed. With all the money spent onthis great stream it appears that there is now imminent danger of the deflection of the river into Bayou Atchafalaya, by which it would reach the Gulf very much sooner than at present. This would ruin New Orleans, leaving her high and dry as an inland town, and some of the rchest territory of Louis ana would also be permanently sub merged. At the recent royal drawing room reception in London black was the pre vailing color. The Princess of Wales looked much better in her sombre toile1 (which set off her magnificent diamonds very well indeed) than in the white dress which she wore at the first draw iug room. The Queeu was arrayed entirely in black, having discarded the white veil she has hitherto worn for one cf fclack tulle, and wore only jet ornaments. Princess Beatrice was in mauve and violet, and displayed many more diamonds than she has ever worn besore. There is general complaint among the merchants and manufacturers ot Birmingham, England, oyer the loss of English trade, which they allege has resulted from the want of energy dis -playsd by the British government in protecting; British interests affected by the French dispute with China.. It is asserted that the Government's failure to resist the French declaration againf t lead as a contraband of war. and its toleration of the arrest of the British merchant ship Glonroy in Chinese wa ter and seizure of its cargo ot lead, have resulted in the transfer of an enor mons ammunition business for China Irom England to the United States and Germany. x 1 nd i eat ton 3 For the South Atlantic States, fair weather, winds generally shifting to Northeasterly, slight rise in tempera ture in North and West portion, nearly stationary in Southeast portion. The Boy Clipper Plow has earned a reputation of being the best ever used j and are pronounced perfect by the best farmers.

Wood wjas plentiful in the docks to day and was being sold at reasonable prices. The jury of inquest did not conclude their labors last night and adjourned until noon to-day. The flower gardens in the city begin to be clothed in beautiful garments of mauy colored blossoms. There was a decided change in the atmosphere last night and this morn ing was very much cooler. Rus. barque Clementine, Sjolundf cleared to day for Bristol, Eng., with 3,700 barrels rosinv valued at 3.850, shipped by Messrs. Paterson. Downing & Co. r The passenger traffic on the railroads leading North and South continues to be very large. Nearly every Northern bound train is crowded to its ntmost capacity. Quite a number of new houses are in proeess of construction in different parts ot the city. Besides these there are many others undergoing repairs and improvements, so that the carpenters are kept quite busy. The Times. The merchants complain that busi ness is very dull, and appearances in dicate that tbey are correct, as there are but very few strangers upon our streets. We hope that there may be an improvement in ihe course of a few weeks, as there undoubtedly will be. This prostration in trade cannot con tinue much longer. More Thieving-. It seems that our friends, Messrs W. E. Davis & Son, are special favorites with the thieving fraternity.. Their fish establishment was again broken open last night, making the third time within about six weeks. The plunder ers tried to beat in the door ot the safe and falling in that they broke into a fish box and stele six pairs of roe shad The door of the safe was badly battered, but the blows were ineffectual to gain an entrance. ' Another VVilmtngtouian. We have received a copy ot the "Re port of the Seventh Annual Meeting ot the Alabama State Bar Association." held in Montgomery on Dec. 3rd, in which the name ot our young townsman, Mr. Alex. T. Jondon, who recently re moved to Montgomery, figures prom inently. Mr. London read beiore the Association a paper on ' The Code of Civil Procedure as Administered in North Carolina." which was so well received that it was ordered to appear in the printed report of the proceedings and it is embodied therein. Some Just Complaints. Some of our subscribers in the Rocky Point section publish to-day in the Re view a complaint in regard to mail ir regularities which calls tor prompt at tention. And they are not the only sufferers under the existing order of things. The people of Wilmington have cause tor complaint also. The mail matter which leaves here in the morning on the W. & W. R. R. for Long Creek and Point Caswell lays over for twenty-four hours at Rocky Point, simply because the mail carrier leaves that place an hour or more be iore the mail arrives there. It seems 'o us that this is an evil which can be easily remedied and it should be done at once. All in need ot a Canary or Mocking Bird Case, will do we'l to call at Ja. corn's Hardware Depot, and examine his large and fine stock. t NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.

About 2 o'clock this aiternoon the alarm was sounded indicating that there was a fire in the fifth fire district. The firemen turned out promptly and start ed for the scene, but soon learned that the fire was in the wods, outside the city limits, and they returned. Richmond and Wilmington. Messrs H. Brunhild & Bro. have for mally opened their Richmond house and are now in full operation there. The senior partner, Mr. Henry Brun hild, is there and in charge ot the busi ness in that city, while Mr. Leopold Brunhild will remain in charge of the Wilmington house. Mrs. H.Brunhild is still in Wilmington but will, in a few days, remove to Richmond, with the family, and join her husband there. Religious Items. The great revival at Fifth Street M E. Church is still in progress. At last night's service quite a number ot peni tents were at the altar, and five con versions. Tbe pastor is being assisted this week by Rev. C. W. Smith, of Whitevillc, and Rey. M. M. McFarland, of Magnolia, The conversons up to date number 274. The meetings will be contined from night to night as Ions; as tbe present interest is maintained. Rev. H. W. Battle preached again last night at the First Baptist Church to a large and interested congregation. We are glad to learn that considerable in terest in spiritual matters was manN fested and that several went lorwaid. asking the prayers of tbe congregation in their behalf. We observe quite a fine display oi new Revolvers for very reasonable prices, at Jacobi's Hardware Depot .t Treatment for Pneumonia. There has been more pneumonia in this section this season than in years, and many cases of it baye proved fatal. In yiew ot its contined prevalence it may not be amiss to quote a correspond dent ot the New Tork World who says he has been twice down with it and that it can be cured if the person will "apply promptly oyer the lungs a poul tice or draft made of mustard and flax seed, keeping quiet and warm in bed." We would not adyise personal or do mestic treatment in tbe case ot any dangerous malady like pneumonia; the wise thing to do in every such instance is to call in promptly an intelligent and prudent physician. But there are local ities in which much lime is lost before the services of a physician can be se. cured, ana in a case oi in s Kinu some simple tamily treatment like that indi cated is certainly advisable. War News. There was quite h buzz of excitement on the streets to-day on account of the European warjnows. A dispatch was received here this forenoon stating that hostilities were actually begun on the 31st ult., by tbe Russians making an attack on the Afghans, y which the latter were defeated with great slaugh ter and driven from their position. I The attack was premeditated and not an accidental meeting ot the forces, and was prompted by reported out rages upon Russian subjects. In con sequence of ibis news Russian and Enslish securities have fallen off c m siderably, and tbe markets have bo comjfi very unsettled. Cotton has fallen off 15 points in Liverpool, while mea's and breadstuff of all kinds have ad vanced. This act ot tbe Russians has been taken in England as a positive and direct declaration of war, and meas ures are being taken accordingly. To ns it seems like the commence ment of prolonged hostilities in which it is more than probable that more European nations will become involved Now is the season for pain line your houses.
