Some of those who own hogsrare very careful to haye them snugly pen' nsd during the day, but turn them on at night to act as scavengers for tbe streets. The Signal office affords very poor consolation this weather. '"'Stationary temperature," has been indicated for so many days that it has become monoton ous and tiresome.

The first case for the Mayor's consid eratiou this morning was for disorder ly eonduct. in which the defendant sub mitted and judgment was suspended. Violet Hicks, colored, for keeping an unlicensed day. was required to pay a fine of $3,witb the understanding thai $1 would be reoii ted . upon her pro- curing the necessary licence. Antonio Mario, charged with va grancy and begging jjpon the streets. was sent below for teudays. He could speak neither English nor French, but claimed to be an Arab, ad was dress ed in th costume of tnat raee. Serious Accident. Mr. J. W. Westbrook, who lives at Wrightsville, had the misfortune yes - turday alternooa to meet with quite a seri- us accident. He was riding on-the turnpike in a buggy, with Miss Kale iteston. of this city, and when near the 'dam" the hotse took fright and ran away, throwing both parties out of the carnage. Miss f.eston, fortunately, escaped without harm while Mr. West brook sustained several severe injuries "on hi-i head and body from which ho uflered intense pain. Medical assis tance was soon present and the sufferer was made as comfortable as possible He was resting easily at 1 o'clock this afternoon, and the prospects are that ho will speedily recover. City and Country. It is an undeniable fact that the number of visitors to our city this SiHson has been greater than in any preceding year for a corresponding lime This is partly owing to tbe new attraction iff Carolina Beach and partly to the fact that the pleasures our city r t tan afford have become more generally known. It is now well known tha Wilmington is much cooler than the surrounding country; and tho old fogy idea, which for many years obtained, that our city was fearfully hot and un comfortable, has been effectually ex ploded. Several hundreds ot ex cursionists have visited the city within the past two weeks, and aeveral hundred more will arrive with in the next ten days. Those who have been here have been delighted with their visit; all have spent more or less money with our merchants, boarding house keepers, hotel keepers and livery stable men. and we have profiled by them, and at the same time faave had the satisfaction of knowing that the city has proven an attractive place for tbe visitors. Thus new acquaintances have been formed and a spirit of friend ship established between city and country which wifl prove'of lasting and mutual benefit.

John King, colored, living on Church street, between Front and Surry, was overpowered by tbe heat at the Caro Una Central Railroad depot at about noon to-day, and had to be conveyed home. Capt. T. J. Southerland lost a valu able horse yesterday from the effects of last driving and the ex reme heat. The Carolina. A new and handsome barge, with a seating capacity for 159 persons. ha been built and placed on the river to convey passengers to Carolina Beach. This has been necessitated in order to accommodate the constantly increasing travel to that popular resort. The barge as bailt at Capt. Skinner's yard and has been named Carolina. She will be u.ed on Monday next for the first time. Fatal Accident. Mr. Biggs, trestle master on the Wilmington, Columbia & Augusta Railrcai, was killed on ; Wednesday night, near Nichols, S. C, under dis tressing circumstances. As the mail and passenger train passed the station on the night in question tbe engineer saw a white object lying on tbe track, but it was impossible to stop the train in season to prevent passing over it. The train was stopped as quickly as possible, when the engineer ran back and found the bodjrnf Mr. Biggs in a fearfully mutilated condition It is supposed that Mr. Biggs, who is a young man and had the confidence of the railroad officials, after eating his supper, left his shanty car and sat down on the track to gel cool and that he fell asicep while thu3 enjoying the pleasant evening breeze, and thus met his death. . , , m . !

Price, ol New Jersey, the Ca'ilornia pioneer for whom the Legislature of that .State re cently appropriated $50 000 to erect a monument in re ognition of his public services, is in town. As a Lieutenant of tbe Navv. Governor Price took pos session of California in the uaine ot tbe United Slates. He has long beeu iden tified with the interests ol lhe Pacific slope. Asked his opinion of tho Tor tilita Mines in Arizoua, whose offices are at 57 Bioadway, this city, aud who.se shares are about to be listed, and are. attracting much attentiou. Gov ernor Price said: "I am familiar with tbe country in which the Tortili tas are located. They arelh the central and best part of the territory aud in an eoormously rich mining distric. The company ban twelve mires and owns a territory three miles long, with over 250 acrts of ricn ore deposits. The Tortilitas have already produced over 150.000 in bullion. I exxect to see a secona Virginia City established there and another Comstock in the cesults of tbe mines. The value of the Tortilitas is demonstrated ny the concentration of the ore below the water level in tbe two mines which are now being work ed, which is the absolute test ol per manency. They have a vein of ore al ready exposed 42 feet wide that assays $50 per tou, .and the supply is ioex hausttble. "Aui I atqoua ed wilb the management?" Ye.-.
