Craft's furniture store, on South Front street, one of the most beautiful and f artistically executed pieces of work that it has been our good fortune to behold in many days. It is in the shape of a folding screen, the leaves of which are of silk plush and the frame of ebony. These leaves are painted by hand by a lady resident in this city and to the manner born. Mr. Cratt has been allowed to keep it on exhibi tion for a few days and it must be seen to be appreciated. Appointment of Committees.

Poppe, a German resident of ibis city, attempted suicide to-day by taking laudanum, and it is feared that the result will be fatal. He had been a fast friend ot Mr. Archie McCollum of whose sad eud we spoke in Tuesday's paper, and had brooded verj deeply oyer that unfortunate man's death. He had for some time past been a clerk in Mr. Robert Portner's lager beer depot in this city and early this morning he started out. as usuai, for the delivery of beer to customers. When at a point on the route he went into a store and soon after returned with a vial in his hand, the contents of which he at once swallowed. When interrogated by the driver as to what he was doing, he said that he had the toothache and had taken something to relieve it. The driver's suspicions were aroused and on the return of the wagou to the depot he mentioned the fact. Mr. Poppe in the meantime went into Mr. H. Hinlze's saloon, corner ot Princess and Second street?, and laid down and went to sleep. When the driver's tale had been told au attempt was made to arouse him but without aail. Medical aid was then summoned and Doctors Pigford and Strong arrived on the scene and at once put a stomach pump into use and succeeded in getting up the dnu. But it was evidently too late, as the patient could not be aroused . otber means were then re sorted to, among them the use of the galvanic battery, but this also proved unavailing and at this writing. 4 p. ru , the unfortunate man is slowly sinking into the grave and we tear that bis spirit will have taken its flight ere our paper gets on tho street. Mr. Poppe is, wo think, about 36 or 37 years of ago. and is unmarried. He was one ot the volunteer nurses at Memphis during the yeliow fever epi demic there, in company with Mr. Mc Collum, and it is evident that the death of the latter un balanced bis mind. Rev. J. D. Hotham will deliver the annual address at the commencement of Warsaw High School on May 21st. Kailroad Meetin&r. Personal. In accordance with announcement Mr. E. T. Boykin, of Clinton.

J alios A. Gray. President ot the Cape Fear & Yadkin Valley Railroad. Mr. John P. Williams, of Fayetteville, one of its directors, and Mr. George M. . Rose, of Fayetteville, its attorney, representing the interests of that road, regarding its extension from Fayetteville to (his city. - Mr. J. H. Currie called the meeting lo order and Col. W. L. DeRosset was made chairman and Mr. G. Herbert Smith was appointed Secretary. The chairman declared the meeting duly organized and ready for busines, when Mr. J. H. Currie introduced Col. Gray, who rose and made quite an exhaustive statement of the road which he in part represented. He spoke of the importance ot the road as a work ot internal improvement and of the ne cessity of its extension to Wilmingtou and of the great advantages which would accrue to this city should it be brought here, and especially if the 'line should be extended Westerly so as to connect with Cincinnati, which will, without doubt, be the case. Such a line would, bring the latter city one hundred miles nearer the seacoast than it could be by any other route. The road is completed from Fayetteville to Greensboro, a dis tance of 100 miles, and trains are regu larly run over this part of the line Beyond Greensboro the work is being pushed rapidly towards Mt. Airy, and when completed there would be less than 30 miles needed to form a connec tion with Cincinnati. The extension of the road to Wilmington was consid ered absolutely necessary, but the syn dicate building the road were unable at present to make the extension without help, and appealed to Wilmington for assistance. He stated that to bnild and equip the road from Wilmington to Fayetteville would cost about $850, 000, or at the rate of $10,000 per mile, and asked that this city should furnish $350,000 of that amount to secure which second mortgage bonds at the rate ot $5,000 per mile should be is sued. He stated that first mortgage bonds to the amount of $10,000 per mile had been issued and used in the construction ot the road, and that all the earnings of the road after paying the necessary running expenses and the interest upon the first mortgage bonds would be used in paying the interest on tho second mortgage bonds. Mr. B. G. Worth, while fully appre ciating the importance ot bringing the road to Wilmington, was of the opin ion' that the proposition to secure the city by second mortgage bonds would not be considered so liberal bv the vot ers of the city as to cause tbem to ap prove of the scheme by their vote3, and thought it would be uo more than fair and just that the security should be in first mortgage bonds. Mr. J. H, Currie advocated the pro poaitiou as made by Col. Gray, in a speech of considerable length, aud thought that, could no better terms be made, it would bo much better to make an actual donation of $250,000 rather than not have the road extended to this city. Col. Roger Moore, Messrs. Wni. and R. E. Calder, besidesjothers, addressed the meeting, all of whom thought that he security should be undoubtedly in first mortgage bonds, and that idea was manifestly the predominant opinion of the meeting. The matter was quite thoroughly discussed, both by Col. Gray and by the citizens pres" ent. after which. Mr. C. H Robinson moved that a committee of five be appointed by the chair to confer with the syndicate and see if they would make a different pro position from that submitted, and re port at a subsequent meeting of the citizens. The motion was carried and the chair stated that be would have the committee selected by 3 o'clock this atternoon, and the meeting adjourned. The following comprise the commit tee as appointed by the chair: Messrs. C. H. Robinson, J. H. Coroe, Roger Moore, B. G. Worth and G. H. Smith. Wizard Oil cured yon.

There was a large and interested aut dieace at St. Thomas' Catholic Church last night to listen to the entertaining and instructive lecture of Bishop Keane. The Bishop spoke without notes and held the most profound attention of his audience from the beginning totbetnd. The Bishop will lecture again to-nisht and there will be an intimate connec tion between the two lectures. His lecture last night was upon the "Holy Land" and his lecture to-night "The Light of the World" will be upon Him who made it holy and will be a refuta tion of Rationalism and Infidelity. There will be an entire change of the musical programme for to night, which will bean entertaining feature of the occasion. We Take it Back! We will have to backdown from our rash assertion made a tew days since that the portraits published in the Winston Sbntinel were all very good. There mu9t be one exception, at leas.t, to this assertion. The others may all be good, from "Jove-like Grover'' down, but as to that of one ot onr Con gressmen, the handsomest of the lot. we will have to weaken. We will not tell bis name for fear of adding to ( not flattering) his vanity and we are willing to bet each of the others harbor the pleasing deiusion that he is t he gentle man referred to. We have no desire to interfere with anyone's matrimonial aspirations, nor to give the lone fisher man by the banks of the lake an undue start in tho race. We are not by any means so green as all that amounts to. Moonlight and Music, These moonlight nights are delight ful and we do not wonder that ladies and gentlemen improve the opportunity afforded by their calm beauty to ram Vie around the city; but we can see no reason why a lot ol rowdies should be allowed to go shooting and singing the streets until after midnight to the an noyance of people who wish to sleep. These latter gentry made themseives hideous by their shoutings lust night in soveral sections of tho city. Had the noise been confined to themselves alone it would have beon bad enough, but their outrageous noises started compet itive bowlings from numberless dogs and the contest was prolougcd and earnest without any decisiou as to who were the victors.

Jarvis. City Fountains. There is a project on tcot to have two fountains placed on Market street, the entire cost ot which will be about $1. 000. These fountains are to be &o &r. ranged that horses may drink at them, which would be a great accommoda tion as well as blessing to those coming in from the country over the dry and dusty roads, it is proposed to erect one at the intersection of Market, and Front streets and the otber at the inter section of Market and Fourth streets. It is proposed that the expense of pro curing and placing in position thtse fountains, which are ornamental as well as useful, shall be defrayed by the proceeds of a Floral Fair, to be g t en op within a short time. The plan seems entirely feasible, and we hope that it may be carried into effect. We know yon like to have a good fit ting shirt !
