He feels very grateful for this mark of their love and esteem, which was entirely unexpected on his part. The Opera Ilou&e.

Evander Prnitt, a lad not quite 15 years old, arrived here on the train from the Oxford Orphan .Asy lum, where he had been for nearly fiye- years, 'arid stated to Officer Grant that he expected to meet his broth erv who lived at Excelsior in Brunswick county, at the depot, btit the latter fiad failed to appear. As the little . fellow was friendless, alone and homeless, officer Grant took him to police headquarters,; where he passed the night. , Prnitt is quite an intelligent boy with a modest, prepossessing .appearance. He was taken to the Asylum from Bladen county, by Mr. J. II. Mills when that gentleman had charge of the institution. The masonic fratern ity of the city were notified this morning of the circumstances and they took steps to properly care for the lad. Latkr Mr. John W. Perdew, Chairman of the Committ ee on the Oxford Orphan Asylum for the fra ternity in this city,, took charge- of young Pruitt, and during the day a man from Brunswick came for the lad instead of the. brother who was expected. The boy was turned oyer to this man, with whom, he left v for Brunswick county this afternoon. . Mario Disaster. Captain Doane, of the steamship Cherokee, at Charleston, from New York:reports- that at 9:30 o'clock in the forenoon ofthe 2nd inst., When 30 miles East-Northeast of Frying Pan Shoals he passed the schooner William and liichard dismasted, water-logged and abandoned. The hatches were oCf, the -deck load was gone and a. boat was 'hanging at her davits. Capt. Doane saw a steam ship ahead, -bound South. - whiqh. may have taken off the'' ere vv. The -schooner William and Rich ard, Capt. Patrick, cleared from this port Dec. 23d, with a cargo pf lum ber, shipxjed by Mr. E. Kidder's Son, for St. Pierre, Martinique. Capt. Patrick is well known hereas a skil ful navigator and a fearless sailor. and tne supposition nere among sea-faring men is' that there is hard ly a doubt that he and his ere were rescued. The presence of the boat at the davits is pretty good cvidenceof this fact, for if the gale had been such as to wash some of tlie .crew overboard,' it is hardly probable that all would have met with the same fate. Capt. Patrick's wife and two' children were with him. We confidently expect to hear of their safe arrival at some Southern or West India port before many days The.

There is no doubt of the absolute necessity of a much larger building than any which we have, arid we expect that the build ing will be built. .
