Owing to a combination of causes there was not a largo attendance at th Lawn Party gotten up for the flag fund of the Wilmington Light Infantry by the ladies of the city at the City Hall Park last night. The. threatening as pect of the weather probably kepi many Jrmu attending and the succession ot intensely hot days probably had such a depressing e fleet upon many that they conld hardly be induced to make the t'Xertion necessary tor the occasion.

The Opera Hoitsn Lion to Some ot the attractions to be pre sen ted at the Opera House during the coming season for the entertainment of our people, are of unusual merit, and ought to draw crowded bouses. Of these we may mention the charming Patti Rosa, who made such a decided bit here last season, Mrs. D. P. Bow ers. Mr, Frederick Warde the trage dian, Marie Presbott. and M'rule Rhea. There are other attractions of greater or less merit lo appear during the season. The management have made arrangements through Prof. E - .Van Laer. for a Chickering Graad Piano, for the orchestra, which will be an ad dition that will be much appreciated Ft is ala deaired that regular orchestra chairs shall be substituted for those now in use, and if this arrangement can be effected the Opera House will be one Of the cosiest and aiost comfortable ot any in the entire South. Qveateat Sacrifice in Clothing: Ever Known in Wilmington. Mr I. Shrier, desiring to close out every dollar's worth of clothing, gents1 furnishing goods and to make quick work of it, will sell out his entire stock regardless of cost. The real cost or ac tual value of tba goods will have noth ing to do with the low prices; bis main object is to open up in the large and handsome store in the Puree 1 1 building with one of the largest and finest stocks of custom made clothing. All goods on hand will be slaughtered off Read a few of the slashing prices in children's suits : For $1 worth $2,25, some at .$1.50 worth $3; ayery handsome suit for $ 1 .50 worth $4. On suits the price will be reduced $3. $5. $8 and $10; in ! furnishing goods 15,25 and 33 per cent. ; Remember this is no sensational bum bug scheme.

Work on the addition and improve ment to the Champion Compress, on Nutt street, is progressing favorably and will be completed for use by the first of September, when the new crop begins to cine in In connection with thi enterprise there tiave been labors of which but comparatively ter are aware. There were several sand bars in the river, near the compress, which were a decided disadvantage to vessels desiring to load there and which not un trequenlly were the cause of considera ble delay. These have been removed by thfrdredging machines, so that an novancea of this kind will no longer in terfere with the reception of cargoes. It has been also desirable that the docks and quays should be made to accom modate a larger numberof vessels for loading at one time, and three quays have been constructed, with dockage on both sides of each, so that six steamers may now take in cargoes at the same time. To accomplish this it became uecessary to get an increased depth of water, and this has beeu a formidable task It was thought, at the oulsel, that dredging would accomplish every thing necessary, but when work had fairly begau it was found that the bot tom ot the dock, for several feet in depth, was a net work of logs, the ac cumulation ot these many years that the vicinity has been used for saw milj purposes. Wherever the logs were found, a diver wa3 sent down to fix for their removal, involving an immense amount of labor and expense. The work has been done, however, and a depth of between 17 feet and 18 teet at low water has been obtained. These increased advantages, with the im provements to navigation in the Cape Fear, will give to Wiluiingion nearly as good facilities for the shipment of cotton as those possessed by Norfolk. Our merchants are making every exer tion to haye Ibis the principal cotton shipping point on the South Atlantic Coast and with a fair prospect of sue cess. Iei the railroads now join with the merchants and make arrangements by which cotton can be brought here as cheaply as it can be conveyed, to Norfolk and the increase to our jcom merce will be absolutely astonishing. Gen. Lane and Gettysburg. The Editor is in receipt of a very in teresting personal letter from his gal lant friend. Gen. Jas. II- Lane, who was at one time a resident of this city, and who commanded a brigade of North Carolinians at Gettysburg. We do not kuow that the letter was intend" ed tor publication, but much of it is of so interesting a nature to our people that we take the liberty of reproducing some portions of it here. Gen. Lane 3ays: How often have I and my family longed to be back in dear old Wilmington, where we have so many warm and sympathizing friends, and where we enjoyed ourselves as we have' never done in any other place that we hare tried. It was a great mistake in me to leave such friends to try my tor tune in Missouri among strangers, -but I thought at the time it was best tor my wife and children. I -returned to Richmond,. Va. , from Missouri to take charge ot a manufacturing company, but our handsome mill was soon laid in ashes by tho burning of theRichmond & Petersburg Railroad bridge, and here I have been ever si nee as Professor of Civil Engineering and Drawing. On the 24th of last month, our fine and impose ing college building, the Alabama Poly technic Institute and Agricultural and Mechanical College, at Auburn. Ala., was destroyed by tire, and wo will be compelled to make temporary arrange menta for teaching. All of my engi neering instruments and orawing models and plates &o. were, destroyed, and I am now busily engaged writing numberless letters to see it I cannot re furnish my depai fiuents at reasonable prices. It has always seemed strange to me that so many writers should still persist in giving all the credit of that glorious but deadly charge at Gettysburg to Pickett's Division My brigade never moved forward more handsomely, nor did it ever tight more heroically than on thai occasion, and this, you know, is saying a great deal, when we remember bow desperately it fought on many other occasions and that it was publicly complimented by President Davis and General R. E. Lee. As stated in the Montgomery Dis palch a tew days ago, if I could wield a pea as well as we fought for our rights, I would not hesitate to use it also in defence- ot justice and right; giving to North Carolina ber proper Ijlacw in the third day's fight at Gettys burg, so nobly won lor her' by the brigades of Lane. Scales and Petii grew ; and aUo to help others to let the world know now splendidly she bore herself oil other memorable occasions. I shall never cease to iove the riar old State, and it alwavs angers me to sea t anybody or any State tryme u tod ner of any of her laures.' - - - Pi.,. v-h Uii in iiwtoi" int and Varnish., ftest in, city at JACOBI S. and at lower prices than yoq CAn boy etsewttere. . . - x . City Court:. The case ot Lawis Whiting, wh was arrested last night upon the charge ot larceny, was brooght before the Mayor this morning and was continued on ac count of the absence of an important witness. Richard Turner, colored, charged with throwing rocks in the street, by which a child, was seriously injured in the face, was the next case, which was also continued on, account of the ab sence of an important witness. Ralph Pickett, wh' hails from Car teret county, for being drunk and down and abusing a police offiaer, was requir ed to pay a fine ot $25 or go below for 30 days. i : : Good Music There is an organization of first rate musical talent in theeity. but tbey will not attempt to practice dnring this hot weather. As soon as the nights become longer and cooler tbey will commence their regular rehearsals with spirit, and will probably keep them np throughout the Winter. Tbey will also, it the encouragement is adequate, give several concerts of vocal and in strumental mnaic during the season, which we are well aware will reflect credit to the musicians and at the same limn afford excellent entertain ment for our citizens.
