The men are fitted there to command as wel1 as obey and should another disas trous war occur the commissioned officers of the forces would be large ly drawn from its ranks. The fishing at the Kocks now is- said to be splendid. On Monday morning, before breakfast, Mr., A. H. Hammond, of Charlotte, caught 5 sheephead, averaging 4 jjounds each, and a drum which pulled down the scales at 23 pounds. The Crescent Opera Company closed their engagement here last night, with the presentasion of the Mascotte. Thev went to Wrights- ville to-day and will appear in a concert there to-night, at Capt.

Is it extravagant to ay that the military and marine parades yester day, were witnessed by from 25,000 to 50,000 people? 'We. think not Probably two-thirds of our own peo ple saw them and there were thous ands of visitors here from other places.

WEDNESDAY, JULY 125, Monument to Mrs. Greenbow. The LadiesMemprial Association have erected a monument at Oak dale to Mrs. Greenhow, whose un fortunate death while in the service ot trie Confederate government willor Col. W. L. DeRosset. Cos. . A, be remembered.- Capt.W. H. Bixby j Fayetteviile Independent Light has perpetually'endo wed the.lot for Infantry; Bt Lumber Bridge Light care-taking. Some of Mrs. Green ; how's relatives, who live in Charles ton, wrote here when they heard that a monument was to be erected to her and offered to pay for it but the ladies told them that it was not a matter of charity, but of love and duty, and so the monument was erected by them. Why They Were Not Mounted. There 4 general regret expressed over the fact "that the Scotland Neck Mounted' Riflemen could not appear in the saddle at the parade yesterday afternoon. The citizens of Wilmington responded very gen-j erously to the, demand upon them and Capt. Southerland had been notified of 70 horses which were at Capt. Anthony's disposal. When it was known that the parade had been abandoned the owners of these horses were notified that they would not be needed and hence they could not be had for the parade. It wasja 'great disappointment to all. Two Fine Displays. The last time we paw a thousand armed and uniformed men parade the streets of Wilmington was when the 18th N. C. Regiment was order" ed up from Fort Fisher to ero to Coosawhatchie, S. C. There were aoout as many men in tnat regi ment then as there were in the en tire brigade yesterdav afternoon, But there wasn'tinuch holiday sol diering about it. We believe the Yankee troops paraded here some times after they got possession of WilminsrtOn but we were not on hand to see them. - Our Own Boys. The people of Wilmington have always been proud of their gallant home company; proud of it in the past and 'proud. of It in the present They had cause for their admira tion yesterday. Their appearance inline was simply splendid. They looked like soldiers, every inch of every man, and their new uniforms, with the nodding horse-hair plumes, attracted and held the eyes of all Their marching was superb and no body nas ever seen a company marching by the front wheel better than they did as they turned from Market into Front street. The Military Parade. The most beautiful and pleasing site ever seen on the streets of Wil mington ( next to the throngs of pretty girls, arrayed Jn white, who parade our thoroughfares every af ternoon) was the display made yes terday by the State Guard. The martial music, tne brilliant uni forms, the nodding plumes and the glittering arms and accoutrements of our 1,200 citizen soldiers made up a sight which will not soon be for gotten by those who were so fortu nate as to behold it. The brigade, which debarked at Tenth and Market and Tenth and Princess streets, did not appear un til nearly 7 o'clock, and thousands had been waiting in the streets for hours for its appearance. It was not far from that hour when the headS of the column appeared in sight on the brow of the hill at the corner of Fourth and Market streets. On they came, marching by . the front, with the bands of the respec tive regiments in front, stepping in perfect order and perfect time. They were greeted - with cheers all along the line of march and in the business quarters of the city it was with difficulty that the enthusiastic crowds could be kept back to the space assigned them. Adjutant General Jones was in command and the line was accompanied by many of the Governor's staff, mounted, and in brilliant uniforms. The Guard marched in brigade order, the First Fourth, Third and Second Regi ments appearing in the order nam ed.. The Governor, with some of his aides, was on the balcony of the Orton House and reviewed the col umn as it passed him. The march was made to the freight depot, on Nutt street, where there was more room for the men than at Front Street depot, where the arms were stackea and a respite from duty was allowed before the time came for the return to camp. V The State Gnard. V. ; The principal item of fnterest at the Sound to-day was the shooting match, -frhich took place' at the Hummocks, under the supervision Infantry; C, Wilmington Light In- fantry, and E, Maxton Rifles, all . of the Second Regiment, furnished the teams.. There was a company prze and an individual prize. The score was as follows : Co.

The camp officers for to-day are as ioiiows: Field Officer Lt. Col. Bogart. FIRST REGIMENT. Officer of the Day Capt. C. F. Warren; Officer of the Guard, Lieut. W. J. Burnett. SECOND REGIMENT. Oficer of the Day Capt. Wm. Black; Officer of th Guard, Lieut. J. C. Morrison. THIRD REGIMENT. Officer of the Day Lieut. J. C. Bessent; Officer of the Guard, Lieut. Robt. S. Galloway. FOURTH REGIMENT. Officer of the Day Capt. W. F. Holland; Officer of the Guard, Lieut. T. B. Siegle. Maj. Samuel H. Smith, Quarter master of the Third Regiment, was in camp on the old Wright place. 24 years ago, with Capt. T. J. South erland's company, i - Mr. Jno. S. Harriss had a 85-pound watermelon in camp to-day. - Th First Regiment is the only one that had a ambulance corps in the parade yesterday. One of the officers of the First Regiment lost the chain from his hehnet during the parade yesterday. The finder will please leave it at this office, v Capt. Black, of Co. E, Maxton Guards, Second Regiment, is en titled to the credit of having initia ted the movement for the parade here. He was the first man to take the matter up and urge that action on the part of the companies which succeeded in having the paracfe or dered. A large sea turtle was in camp to day and was vie, wed with much cu" riosity bp those who had never be fore seen. one of the kind.. The health of the men in camp continues very gratifying and all ex press their delight at this fact. There are less complaints than there were in camp at Asheville. The Second was out in regimental drill this morning and they were highly complimented. The Second Regiment moved up to the train at Wrightsville yester day afternoon in single file and in two minutes the men were all on board and reported ready to move. The pavilion and the hotel at the Hummocks are now lighted by gas. As the time draws near to break camp the boys all express regrets that they are to go and many say that they would be willing to stay another ten days. ' - It is generally conceded that the next Encampment will be held at Wrightsville, if the wishes of the officers and men are consulted. It was intended to hold a meeting to day for ratifying the report of the committee appointed yesterday, but it was not considered necessary, as there seems to be a ; unanimous en dorsement of Camp Fender. The troops 'will" break camp on Friday, and leave us on that day. To morrow is the last of the regular encampment. There is to be a tub race at the Hummocks this afternoon between Messrs. C. E. Croom, George Barker and Archie Marines. 1 There were many handsome uni- forms in the parade yesterday after noon but the 'handsomest was ine , , - 1, : dear old gray. Superonty or tins color over the blue was apparent to eyerybody. 1888. NO 155, The Fire This Mornings Fire broke out about 1:30 o'clock this morning: in- Mr. .1. A.
