found that it had done me so much good that I
continued it until I took two bottles. Since then I

Slight Firo
At a few minutes after noon to
day tire was discovered in the ceil
ing, between the first and second
floors of Mr. H. P. West's, residence
on Chestnut bet een 3rd and 4th sts.
The alarni-was immediately sent out
from box-14, corner Third and Prin
cess streets, and the firemen were on
hand with th-eir usual alacrity and
promptitude, the Howard Relief
hose reel being first on the ground,
and, the flames were speedily extin
guished. The damage, which was
mainly by water, was about $150,
which is fully covered by insurance.
The fire was caused by a defective
flue.

Public Mootine:.
- In accordance with previous an
nouncement, there"vas a meeting of
the business men and citizens gen
erally at the Produce Exchange at
noon to-day, to consider the neces"
sity of making this city the Eastern
terminus of the Cape Fear & Yadkin
Valley Railroad. The meeting was
called to order by Capt. J. H. Currie,
who stated the object of the meet
ing to be one of the most important
to the-people of Wilmington that
could possibly be held the exten
sion of the Cape Fear & Yadkfli
Valley Railroad to this city, and
closed by" naming Dr. A. J. DeRosset
as Chairman, and requesting the re
porters of the Review, Messenger and
Star to act as Secretaries.
Dr. DeRosset, upon taking the
Chair, made some appropriate pat
riotic and forcible remarks, showing
the imperative necessity of voting
an appropriation to the enterprise.
It was interesting to see the vener
able Chairman, who was here at the
birth of North Carolina railroad
enterprises, vigorously working for
this new source of wealth and in
fluence to our city.
On motion of Capt. J. H. Currie,
a committee of five was appointed
to draft appropriate resolutions re
garding the enterprise, to be sub
mitted to a meeting of the citizens
to be called by the committee at the
City Hall at 8 o'clock next Monday
night.-; Messrs. B. G. Worth, J. W.
Atkinson, Win. A. Frehch, F. Rhein
stein and Pembroke Jones were ap
pointed oh that committee.
Adjourned.
The wagon of the Carolina Chem
ical Company, bearing the general

bur streets to-day. The music was
very good considering that "there J
were but four pieces in the band. .
Civ Court.
The docket for the Mayor's con
sideration this morning was small

of in the following order:
A man, whose name we suppress
by request, charged w ith an aggra
vated assault and battery upon his
family, was required to pay a fine of
$50 or be confined 30-days in the city
prison. ; -,;
Joe Davis, colored, for firing
pistol within the city limits, was re
quired to pay a fine of $10 for the
offence.; Judgment was suspended
against the same defendant, on the
charge of carrying a . concealed
weapon.
Sam Smith, colored, was charged
with doing the business-, of a steve
dore v ithout a license, but the in

Capital and Population.
Several capitalists of New York
and other Northern cities, who ieel
an interest in the prosperity of this
State, have established a "North
Carolina Land and Emigration Bu
reau," with headquarters at 22 Dey
street. Mr. F. E. McAllister is Pres
ident of the Bureau while Capt. N.
W. Schenck, formerly a well-known
citizen of Wilmington, is its Man
ager. The bureau is represented
here by Maj. W. L. Young. Efforts
are being made by the bureau to
bring capital and population to this
city and locality and the bureau is
in correspondence with Maj. Young
with that object in view, although
without definite result thus far.-
utner capitalists oi tne ix ortn are
also making frequent inquiries look
ing to the same object, and there are
abundant indications that both cap
ital and population will be centred
in Wilmington and in many places
in the semi-tropical belt in the very
near future. We say, let them come.
There is room and verge enough,
and there are abundant opportuni
ties for the profitable investment of
capital and there are almost num
berless enterprises that would prove
remunerative to labor.
On a solid Uasls.
A friend of ours once gave his
little boy a dollar as a birthday
present and the little, fellow,
being full of trading propensities,
forthwith invested the amount in
candy and cigars and chewing gum
and set up shop on the corner in -a
big dry goods box. He did a flourish
ing business and in a few days -entirely
sold out. He then .carried his
stock of pennies to -his dad, full of
enthusiasm as to the success of his
venture. When the books were
balanced there was just 50 cents,
cash on hand. The old gentleman
rubbed his bald pate, held up the
youth to the inquisitorial rack and
finally ascertained that the business
which the young one had declared
to be on a solid financial basis was
conducted in this wise: The youth
paid out 50 cents for the box and 50
cents for having it painted and par
titioned off into shelves and then
he went down to a candy store
and bought a dollar's worth of goods
and had them'charged to liis father.
These goods, cost $1, were sold for 50 j
cents and the smart young fellow j
was 50 cents ahead by the transaction
and was in no w ise dashed by the
predi6tion made, by the: old man
that he would wind up in the. Poor
House or the Penitentiary. ; I
Death of Mr. N. A. Stedman.
The sad intelligence was received
here to-day of the death of the ven
erable Mr. N; A. Stedman, of Fayr
ettevilje. The deceased gentleman
was one of the oldest and most high
ly esteemed citizens of the . Cape
Fear country. He had lived a long,
useful and honorable life and ; sinks
to his rest ripe in years and good
fruity and in the esteem and regard
of all who knew him. He -was the
father of Hon. Charles M. Stedman,
of this city. Lieutenant Governor of
the' State, and of Mr. Frank H. Sted
man, and was the father-in-law of
Mr. Wui. H. Bernard. His death
must have been sudden but no par
ticulars relative to it- have been re
ceived here as yet.
Por Atlanta,
We learn that an effort is being
made for an excursion party from
this city to attend the great Expo
sition at Atlanta, Ga., which will
commence October 10th and con-"
tinue until October 22nd. Railway
rates will be reduced for the occa"
sion and the attractions of the Ex
position have seldom, if ever, been
equalled in the South. President
Cleveland and his wife will be there.
Besides these distinguished guests,
Governors Lee, of Virginia; Rich
ardson, of South Carolina; Bob Tay
lor, of Tennessee; Sear, of Alabama;
Terry, of Florida, and Gordon of
Georgia, will be present, each with
a military staff of 40 mounted men.
The other attractions are almost in:
numerable and arrangements have
been made for the accommodation
of all visitors.- Let's go!
