His lather, Jesse R Grant, has attested over his own signa ture that his name, first, last and all the time, was Ulysses Simpson Grant. Sir Moses Montefiore, the great Her brew philanthropist, died at Ramsgate. England, on Tuesday afternoon, aged 100 years and 9 months. The cablegram announcing his death says that 4'Rams ?ate i3 in mourning. The majority of the shops are closed. The Mayor, at a meeting of the Town Council, spoke of the death of Sir Moses Montefiore as a great loss to the town. The Council resolved lhat the Town Hall should be drape,d and that the municipal author ities should attend the funeral." The following is Irom the notice of his death in the Herald: Sir Moses Montefiore, whose one hundredth birthday was celebrated in Europe and n the United States last year, was born on the 24th of October, 1781, at Leghorn. Italy. The baronet's earjier yeais were passed in Italy, but he received bis education and began bi3 business career in Eagland. In 1812 he mnrried Judith, the daughter of Mr. L. B. Cohen, the sister-in-law of Nath an Meyer Rothschild, the founder of the London branch of that house. Ju dith Montefiore, who lived happily with her husband for fully fifty ycars.though j childless, was his unwearied assistant ih ail his good works. She was a lady of great mental endowments, and she wrote an interesting account of one of her numerous philan thropic journeys with her hus band, published in 1844, under the title, "Notes of a Private Journal of a Visit! to Egypt and Palestine." She died September 25, 1862. and Sir Moses cm bodied at once his love and hi3 bereave ment in his noble, declared determina tion to embalm her memory by "re doubling his benevolence toward the living." This be did by his annual gift in her name to Bell Lane Jews' Free School tor Girls and in countless other ways. The Convalescent Home at South Norwood was built by the En glish Jews in memory of Lady Monte fiore. Sir Moses also endowed the Jew isn college at Ramsgate in her name. A few days after the accession of Victoria Mr. Montefiore was elected Sheriff of London, the first Jew who had ever been chosen for that office, and he re received knighthood at the hands of Her Majesty when she visited the city on the following Lord Mayor's Day. This compliment was well mer ited, for bo had already acquired world wide fame for bis philanthropy. He had amassed enormous wealth and his whole life has been characterized by large hearted benevolence, and civilized people of every race and nationality had "riven him honor for his good works. To -understand the motives of Sir Moses Montefiore's life it is neces sary to follow the progress of his intel lectual development.

Our expected letter from the seat of war, promised in yesterday's corres pondence, did not arrive this morning very much to our disappointment. That it is somewhere on the road and may reach us by the time the troops return home, we confidently and devoutly be lieve. There is! room for much improve men t in the postal facilities between Eastern and Western North Carolina in toe aosence ot our regular corres pondence we make to-day some interest ing extracts from an article in Mon day's Asheville Citizen, which reached -us lhi3 (Thursday) morning: Monday morning broke bright and beautiful upon the Camp, the rain oi Saturday putting a new aspect and feel ing upon every man and everything Tbe men have adapted themselves to camp lite with wonderful facility, sur rounding themselves with the comforts that an old campaigner might suggest. One thing may not be forgotten. While the men make themselves com fortable as soldiers, they do not forget that they are gentlemen. There is not a single case of depredation on corn fields or the stores of the orchard or the fowl yard, things under such circum stances conventionally free property. The 2od Regiment gains addition to its strength ; numbers join every day; and while gainiug iu . strength, gains also in discipline. It is the favorite with many; but we cannot jus'ly make discriminations, for the wholo consti tute a fine body of troops. They are ready for Instant actual service, and would be ready to meet the order to move to any part of the United States in twenty-four hours notice. Much i3 due to the ordinance officer, Lt. Col. Olds, for the complete equipment of the troops. There is nothing in details or iD fullness wanted. Col. Black pays a high compliment to the efficiency ot this officer when be says no troops in tho Southern States are so amply and perlectly equipped. In connection with diiciplino and equipment it may be added that the camp is well policed, and there is little sickness among tho men and none that is at all serious. Everybody is on the qui vive for Gov. Scales' arrival. Wednesday is the grand day of review, and we presume the world will be there to see. The boys are somewhat disappointed at the com paratively Jsmall numbers , attending tho afternoon drills. At 3 o'clock yesterday morning the long roll was suddenly sounded, and in five minutes every man was in ranks to repel a night attack. There' was rapid and heavy firing along tbe lines; and the enemy were driven back with out the loss of a man on the part of tbe defenders. The camp witnessed a more quiet scene when the Sabbath sun was some what high in tho heavens. Bishop Lyman, of the Episcopal church, as sisted by the Rev. Dr. Carmichael. Chaplain of the Second Regiment, held divine service, the improvised pulpit being placed under a tree in tbe ravine near the camp. On tbe sloping sides of the ravine the troops were grouped the Second Regiment in full strength. Other troops were present, and a con siderable number of citizens. Bishop Lyman preached a most admirable sermon, the leading idea, that the soldier equipped for physical battle had suggested to him that he was engaged in a great moral battle, of which the world was the field, but the consequen ces of victory or defeat reaching into eternity. The reference made by the Bishop to the dead General Grant was feeling, eloquent and most beautifully expressed in language and tone. The music by tbe choir, from the Sec ond Regiment, was touching and ex qulsite, madejmoro impressive by the surroundings. Serious Accident. Mr. John Williams, of Onslow coun ty, was playing with a mule last night at the cart house of Mr. B II. J. Ahrens, on the corner of Market and Ninth street, when the animal kicked, one foot hitting Mr. Williams in the breast and tbe other in the jaw, inflict ing serious if not fatal wounds. The wounded man was taken to the hospi tal where he now lie3 in rather a criti cal condition. Mr. Williams is about 30 years of ae and is. we believe, un married. Base Ball. We learn that a new battery for the Seasides is expected here soon from Baltimore, Mr. Monroe, the new mana ger, having gone to that city, for the purpo3e of securing the services of pro fessionals. It is also said that there is to be an entire reorganization of tbe club and that for next season they in tend entering the Southern League with a nine composed entirely of pro fessionals.

After all the Second Regiment failed to aecore the prize flag offered by the ladies of Asheville to the beat drilled rugimtnt.

W. C. Jones, Pa iii fill. Situation. An old colored woman went to police headquarters this morning and report ed to Capt. Brock that there was a woanded and helpless young colored man under the Peabody School House, on Fifth street, between Red Cross and Campbell, where he had been for several days. Sergeant Bishop, of the police force, was sent to investigate the matter and upon his return stated that the wounded man was Thomas Smith, colored, about 18 years of age. He was injured at Kidder's mill on Monday last by a log rolling against his ankles. He thought at first that the accident was trilling ana startea to wait to his boarding house on the North side of the railroad When he reached the school house in question he sat down to rest and upon attempting to start again, found that he was helpless, t being impossible to move his anks in tho least. He had lived and slept at the school house ever since, making nis oeu upon oencnes underneath the building, and some of the colored people of the neighborhood supplying him with food. He had tried to get word to tbe City Hall of his con dition, but without avail until to-day. Sergeant Bishop found the sufferer in an utterly nelpies3 condition so tar as locomotion was concerned and had him conueyed to the city hospital for treat ment. - Personal. Mr. J. W. S. Robinson, representa tive to the General Assembly freni Sampson county, is in the city to-day. Mrs. H. Hi .Kasprowicz, who has been soioining at Smithville for a few weeks, returned to the city this morn ing. Mr. T. B. Henderson was taken quite sick this forenoon while at tbe office of Messrs B. F. Mitchell & Son and had to be conveyed home. A letter was received in this city to day from Capt. W. A. Cumming. He was at Blowing Rock when the letter was written, ana was navmg a gooa time. Rev. Mr. Brown, of Charlotte, who has been sick at Smithville for some time, was brought to tbe city this morning and conveyed to the residence of Rev F. W. Ek Peschau, on Sixth street, be tween Market and Princeess. Our valued friend, Mr. Asa A. Brown, who has been in Mexico and Texes since leaving here a year ago, is expected to arrive in the city to night. He is a genial hearted, clever gentle man and we shall be glad to bid him welcome back to Wilmington. Col. John D. Taylor has so far re covered that he was able to be down at hi3 office to-day. He has been confined to his house nearly seven weeks, during which time he has been an intense suf ferer. It was pleasant to see him in his accustomed place at the City Hall to-day ana many were tne nearty con gratulations he received upon his re covery. Mr. D.F . Colwell, a prominent citizen of the Black River section, in Sampson county, is in tbe city to day. He re. ports that the crops were never in a more prosperous condition in his sec tion than now. lie stales also that the acrerage in cotton is somewhat larger than it was last year, and that tbe pros pects (or a good crop are excellent.
