Light, and a plenty of it,.is needed at the depot of the Seacoast R. R. at Wrights ville. As it is now it is really dangerous there at night, at train time. The rains had here yesterday af ternoon did not reach Wrightsville. The dust on the turnpike from the depot to the Encampment grounds was very disagreeble. The Queen of St. Joliris carried down to South port and Fort Cas well to-day a very large crowd, the excursion having been given under the auspices of Unity Tent No. 60, 1. O. R. Some of them : were prepared to stop off at the Rocks for a day's fishing. One of the largest excursion par ties of the season was that which went down to Carolina Beach to day on the steamer Sylvan Grove, L$he occasion being the excursion given by the Bladen Street M. E. Church. "There were but two Federal vet erans in the line which yesterday visited the Encampment. More had been expected and a general regret vcas expressed at their absence There are not more than seven or eight white veterans of the Union army in the city and we would have been glad to see them all in line. The Crescent Opera Company gave a concert last night at Manning's pavilion, Wrightsville Sound, as sisted by Messrs. Manning, Smith, Mitchell and Welch, who are among our best , local talent. The pro gramme pi esented was a delightful one, and' there was a large attend ance. The authorities of the railroads centreing here are about to publish cheap excursion rates for Saturday trips. These rates are but little more than a cent a mile. If the tickets could be made good for a week the up country people would come to see us at a very gratifying rate. The Tub Have Yesterday. The tub race yesterday at the Hummocks was a very interesting event ami was witnessed by a large number of spectators. The course was from the Banks to the Hum mocks. The race was won by Mr. John Bell, with Mr. Croom second and Mr. Marines third Tney all got over. The prize, we understand, was a purse of $ 10. Decoration. Flag Bunting. Flag ? Bunting.

JULY 26, v-"v';" . - i. o.-o. f. Cape Fear Lodge No. 2, I. O. O. F., had an initiation- and conferred the Second - Degree last nignt in honor of a visit from Past Grand Master W. A. Bobbitt who, on the request of Noble Grand Oscar Pear sal I, presided in the work. There were a great many visiting brethren from different parts of the State- A Straw. . A friend at Charlotte writes us: "I have heard many m flattering praises of the treatment the 'sol dier boys' have received at the hands of the Wilmington people. Heard a Charlotte man, who hasjtut returned from the Encampment, say this morning that the boys say they want to go there every year. I hope the Stcite will take up with the sug gestion made and purchase or lease those grounds, to be used-as a per manent encampment." Camp Notes. The camp presents a deserted ap pearance to-day. Headquarters are closed and there are no military restrictionsplaced on the men. To morrow it will be abandoned by all except the Quartermaster's force. The Hornet's Nest Riflemen will come up to the city to-morrow and will go down to Southport on the Queen. A party made up of members of the Hornet's Nest Riflemen went on a fishing frolic outside thi3 a. m. The Monroe Light Infahtry broke camp last, night and have gone home. The Pasqaotank Rifles and the Washington Light Infantry will leave this afternoon on the 4 o'clock train. . The Steele Creek Cornet Band of Mecklenburg left this morning for their homes. This band has re cently become a regimental band to the Fourth Regiment. It is com posed of 21 pieces. A game of base ball will take place this afternoon at the Encamp" ment, between the First and Seconds and Third and Fourth Regiments, the t wo .former against the two 'lat ter. Mr. Gifford, the champion third baseman of Charlotte, will catch for tlie Fourth Mr. L. A. Black welder, of Char lotte, Color Sergeant of Co. E, 4th. Regiment, is a veteran of two wars, He served in the Mexican war in the company that went from Char lotte. He now has the battle flag of the company, which was carried by. him through Mexico. It is in the armory of the Hornet's Nest Rifle men at Charlotte. During the late war Mr. Blackwelder served with the Hornet's Nest Riflemen. Mr. T. Pitt, of the Edgecombe Guards, was with Co. F, 30th N. C. Regiment (artillery) during the war and was at one time encamped at Green's Mill, about a mile East of the city. This is the Hrst time hp has been here since the war. Our reporter was presented to-day by two of the Hornet's Nest Rifle1 men with a handsome hickory cane, cut on the grounds, as a memento of the Encampment. Mr. Marion Cobb, of the Edge combe Guards, was seriously injured yesterday. He had a friendly tds sel with one of the other soldiers and in the fall to the ground broke one of the' tendons of the thigh. He was taken to the hospital and will receive every care but it is likely that it will be some days yet before he can travel. This is the only real disaster that has occurred during the Enciiinpnient. TheMaxton Rifles, Lumber Bridge Light Infantry, FayetteviUe Inde pendent Light Infantry, Granville Grays and Southern Stars, of Lin- colnton, left for home this morning on the C. C. R. R. Capt. Anthony, of the Scotland Neck Mounted Riflemen desires to return thanks to those citizens Of Wilmington who offered the horses for the parade last Tuesday and only regrets that they could not be used. He especially desires to thank the charming young lady wno placed her saddle horse at his dis posal. The Scotland Neck Mounted Kine- men were highly complimented by Governor Scales for their plucK in appearing on foot during the parade. .

The line was formed at the .Orton ! House and moved about half-past 4 oxtock up Front street to the depot. It? was under the command of Col. W. L. DeRosset, with Maj. Jas. Reilly, Capt. Henry Savage, Capt. James L Metts and Lieut. Geo. W. Huggins as his aides. fie Cornet Concert Band was in front and the old soldiers stepped out in good or. derto the tap of the drum. They presented an imposing sight arid re ceived many hearty cheers. " There were three flags in the line, borneby Lieut. Geo. M. Crapon and Messrs. P. Heinsberger and Jno. H. White. That carried by Lieut. Crapon was the f old regimental flag of the 3d N. C. Infantry, tattered an J torn with shot and shell, a sacred relic of the war. : There was a long waic nearly an hour at the depot, and. then the men boarded an already crowded train and were soon moving along swiftly towards the Sound. -.Arrived there they were greeted with a good old-fashioned yell and the line of inarch, about one mile, was taken up for the camp. Arrived there the line passed into the grounds, and by the Governor and his staff, whom they saluted, and before 'the long line of troops, all with arms at the present. . They were halted and aligned facing the troops and then the whole column was put in motion and marched in front of the Gov ernor and the line of veterans, sa luting and being saluted as they passed. As each iegiment came in front of the vets it was saluted with something that sounded like the old "rebel yell." Dress parade by the different regiments followed and then the veterans were dismissed. It was a notable event and one long to be remembered by all who were present." It is not often how a-days that 200 old Confederates are seen in one line and we doubt if such a sight is ever witnessed here again. Year by year" the ranks are being thinned and even if the En campment is held at the same place next year and there is another parade of the old guard, it is doubt ful if there will bas many in line then as there were yesterday. Uppincott'a Monthly. The August Lippincott opens with an nnumally strong novel by Maud Howe, entitled "Mammon," which has a vigorous and -stirring plot. W. H. Babcock gives a very pleasant descriptiontnd historical sketch of "The Eastern Shore of Maryland,'' with which this author is intimately acquainted. An excellent autobio graphical sketch, "My Reasons for Becoming a Woman-Suffragist," is by Elizabeth L. Saxon. One the most interesting features is the close of the prize competition, which .be-" ganin the February number, and the announcement of the winners' names with the comparative stand ing of all the competitors. The poetry is by Frank Dempster Sher man, Clinton Scollard, and William H. Hayne. The departments keep up their interest. lersnal. Messrs. T. Sessons, of Bladen, and E. A. Hawes, of Pender, were in the city to-day. They took in Wrights ville and the Hummocks yesterday. Mr. J. P. Murrell, of Brunswick county, was in the city to-day and reports the crops in Brunswick and Bladen in a flourishing condition.. We were pleased to receive a visit to-day from Mr. H. A. Latham, of that excellent Democratic paper, the Washington Gazette, who is a member of the Washington Lhrht Infantry and has been in camp with his company. Farewell Dance at Southport. A very pleasant dance has been arranged to take place in the pavil ion at. Southport to-night. It is ex pected that many of the soldiers will attend and it will be a sort of farewell to them on the part of the hospitable people of South port. The Queen of St. John's will go down, leaving here at 7:30 o'clock and re turning after the dance. The. fare for the round trip,- including -em trance to the pavilion, is only 50 cts. - " "" "" " " ""' " . ...V, Fly Traps, best and cheapest, at jacobi's Hdw. JDepot. t o 1888. NO 156.

" '' : The Idler and the ltosa Win; The regatta at Wrightsville to'-day resulted in a victory for the 'Idler and the'Rosa, in their -respective classes.- The" Mascotte was second and the Peggoty third in the first class and the Little Alice was second in the second class. The wind was very light. Fuller particulars of the race not at hand when our report closed. - Wilmington Ahead. The enterprising clothier and hat ter, Mr. I. Shrier, has scored one again for Wilmington. When the campaign beaver was adopted by the Democratic Executive Commit tee as their uniform hat, Mr. Shrier at once placed orders with several of the largest factories in the ; coun try for several hundred dozen and has not only supplied his own Stat but shipped them to all parts of Vir ginia, South Carolina, Georgia and even as far as Florida. Mr. Shrier says he has sold more beavers than any house in the South. He informed our'reporter that he expects to selL ten times as many as he has already sold. This certainly looks as thongh Clevetand and Thurman would be elected. . . Marriage Bells. Mr. Henry Hewlett was happily married last night to Miss Hattie Bender, a beautiful and accomplish, ed young lady, daughter of Ser geant D. S. Bender, of the city po lice force. The ceremony was per formed by Rey. D. H. Tut tie, at Fifth Street M. E. Church, which was crowded with those who had assembled to witness the interesting event. The chancel was handsome ly decorated with flowers. The ushers were - Messrs. S. A. Craig, James Ellis, S. A. Greelish and Alex. McEachern. From the church the bridal party drove to the residence of the bride's father, where a recep tion was held, and from thence the newly-inarried pair went to the snug little home which the. groom had provided on Ann, between Fifth and Sixth streets. The presents were numerous and some of them were very handsome. From Pender County. Editor Review, A great many of the voters of Union and Holden townships desire the nomination of A. H. Faddison for Sheriff and Wil liam Rivenbark for Register of Deeds by the Democratic Conven tion 01 I'ender .;onnty. Tney are men of ability and integrity, men whom vve all would like to see elect ed to the positions, inen . who are pupular with the rich and poor alike. They would not only carry the full vote of the party, but would run far ahead of their ticket;there are many poor men who have been assisted by them wnen in need, who would for get the ties - of party when they J XI r . , m 1 11? come to me names 01 a.ureu raaai son and Willie Rivenbark.
