WILMINGTON, N. C SATURDAY. OCTOBER
J Good. Luck.
A party of fishermen went out
j from Southport on Thursday last to
j try their luck at fishing on the briny
I deep. Success crowned their efforts
I and in a remarkably short space of
time they had of trout and other
! fish about 3,000, Good work, and it
, made fish very cheap in Southport
! for a while.
A Retrospect.
This is a pleasant anniversary for
Bro. Bonitz of the Mennenger for it
was just 19 years ago to-day, on the
8th day of October, 1868, that he is
sued the first number of the'" Golds
boro Messenger. We remember the
occasion well, and we remember,
too, what a splendid career the Mes
senger had and what a splendid fight
it made against the odious and
tyrannical Canby constitution and
the satrapy which was then inpower
in 2iorth Carolina. We remember,
too, how eloquently Bro. Bonitz en
forced in person the arguments of
his paper anil how a good hickory
stick played a prominent part in the
campaign. That was about the same
time, we believe, that the editors of
the Journal, Maj. J. A. Engelhard
and a brother of the Editor of the
Rkvikw, were conducting a similar
ly successful campaign in Wilming
ton.
Ah, well! And has it been 19 years
since all this happened? Tempus
f ugit, by jingo?
Across the Mountains'.
There is a movemeni on foot and
with every prospect of, success to
extend the Carolina Central Rail
road from its present Western ter
minus at Rutherfordton to Ashe
ville, although as vet the matter
has not been definitely settled. The
citizens of Asheville and Buncdmbe
county, as well as those residing
along the line of the projected ex
tension, are anxious that the road
should be built to this city and have
held many meetings looking to the
attainment of that object. Colonel
John M. Robinson, the president of
the road, has written a letter in
which he states that if the people of
Buncombe county will subscribe
$100,000 to the, stock, besides giving
the road good terminal 'facilities at
Asheville and guaranteing an out
let from that city to other points, he
will bring the road there.
The facts are that the people want
the extension; Asheville would be
greatly benefited thereby, and it is
almost a necessity for the interest
and prosperity of the road that it
should be built through to Asheville
All these favorable considerations
point almost unerringly to the early
extension of the road to that point,
but nothing has yet been officially
determined in regard to the matter.
Personal.
Sheriff Johnston, of Pender coun
ty, was in the city yesterday.
Mr. W. A. French, of Messrs. Geo.
R. French & Sons, has gone to Bos
ton on a business trip. Mrs. French
is with him.
Mr. Charles L. Sanders, a member
of Howard Relief Fire Engine Com
pan', is very sick at the boarding
house of Messrs. H. L. Vollers &
Brother, on North Water street.
It was reported liere yesterday
afternoon and this morning that Mr.
John Sheehau, the druggist, corner
Fifth and Queen streets, had been
stricken with paralysis. We are
glad to kilo that the report is en
tirely untrue. Mr. Sheehan was in
our office to-day and exhibited no
evidence of paralysis. He liati a
severe chill yesterday afternoon but
has recovered and is now in his
usual health.
We learn from our neighbor of the
Messenger that our clever young
friend, Mr. C. E. Borden, has been,
temporarily assigned to the position
of Superintendent of the Navassa
Fertilizing Works, made vacant by
the death of the lamented Col. C. L.
Grafflin. Mr. Borden has been iu
the employment of the .Navassa
Company for the past twelve years
as chemist, assistant sujerintendant
and in other responsibilities. He is
a zealous worker and is thoroughly
capable and familiar with the var
ious details of the works.
The Board of Aldermen, at their j
meeting night-before-last, violated!

Talk About Clothing.
Don't you know. that an old stock
of clothing or furnishing goods is
not worth 50 cents on the dollar in
fact, are dear at any price ? Per
sons desirous of purchasing new and
fresh goods (no old, moth eaten stock)
should visit the mammoth clothing
establishment of S. H. Fishblate, on
North Front street, where you will
find nothing but well made, stylish
fitting garments, all tailor made, at
prices that other houses charge for
ordinary made goods. Take his
goods to your houses and compare
price, style, fit and finish with other
clothing houses and you will take
his every time. He has ai all wool
business suit which he is selling at
$7, that equals any $10 suit sold in
this market; 1,000 children's suits,
all wool, $2 and up. A splendid fine
all wool Fall overcoat at $7, fit for
any gentleman to wear. It will pay
you to examine his stock before pur
chasing elsewhere, as he guarantees
to give you perfect satisfaction or
refund you your money. t

The first case for the Mayor's con

sentence was 20 days in the chain
Jane Hines, colored, was drunk
and disorderly last night and de
monstrated a first class ability to
eurse every tiling and "every -body.
She was lined $20, with the alterna

August Reuold, for an assault and
battery, was lined $5.
Frank Thomas, for allowing his
cow to run at large, was required to
jftty a fine of $5.
