Cardinal Gibbons has been inter

subject of the remarriage of divorced,
persons. We quote one paragraph:
"Ye, the remarriage of a divorced
Puth r i o ilni'inii Hi a

time necessarily involves his being
put without the pale of the Church, j
In such cases it is not only tbe
right, but the duty of our priests to
refuse the offender absolution or the,
sacraments. But I should hesitate
to go so far as to refuse the sacra
ments to a Catholic who had merely
obtained a divorce

Mrs. James K. Polk, in some chat
ty reminiscences of her husband's
inauguration, has this to say con
cerning a newspaper statement that
at General Jackson's inaugural ball
tne ladies wore calico dresses with
out any flowers: "Now that is an
absurdity. It is quite too ridiculous
for anything. The ladies of that
date dressed as richly and becom
ingly as the ladies of the present
generation. At my own last recep
tion at the White House I wore a
gorgeous pink satin from Paris with
point d'Alencon lace, and it was this
dress my greatgrand-niece wore at
a reception in the neighborhood last
week, and without the slightest
alteration. I have given her sev
eral of those beautiful Paris robes
which served me at the White
House, one of which I wore at the
naugural ball, an elegant white
brocaded silk, which was presented
to me bv Commodore Kearney, of
the navy. And 1 have seen it stated
that I was dressed on that occasion
in a black dress with a black cloak.
The idea is too ridiculous for any
thing." - . . (

WILMINGTON, N. C TUESDAY, MARCH 19,
A Historical las ae.
Mr. John C. Davis has handed us
1 a copy of the Vicksburg Daily Citi
zen, around which hangs a grand
historic aroma. This issue was set
j up for print July 2d, 1863, before the
! surrender to Grant, and was issued
I by his order on July 4th. Tlwre are
only four columns of it, about 15
inches each in length, and it is
printed on wall paper. All of the
matter, with the exception of a
small explanatory foot-note, set up
bv Grant's men, is of a decidedly
Confederate cast.
A Handsome Ship.
The steamship Delaware, of the
Clyde line, paid her second visit to
this port last night. She is from
Fernandina and put in here to com
plete her cargo. She made the run
from Fernandina to this port in 26
hours, which is not many hours be
hind" the trains. She is a fine boat,
with elegant passenger accommoda
tions, and is one of the largest and
best ships in the Clyde fleet. Our
old friend, Capt. Chichester, is in
command. She sails for New York
to-morrow.
Audit and Finance.
The Board of Audit and Finance
held their last regular meeting yes
terday, the term for which the mem
bers were appointed expiring with
the present month. There were
present: Mr, R. J. Jones, chairman,
and Messrs. J. F. Maunder, Win
Calder and John W. Hewett. .
Bills for current expenses,amount-
ing to $C60.27, were audited and ap
proved; also, account of collections
due sinking fund, amounting to
$ 971. 18.
The members of the Board, iu an
informal discussion of the matters
pertaing to the Fire Department,
expressed disapproval of the prac
tice of using fire engines for pump
ing out vessels, the opinion being
expressed that city property was en
dangered thereby, and liable to
great injury.
New Road. New Pier, New Engine.
The iron for the new railroad
track from the new pier to Carolina
Beach has arrived and is now on
board of a vessel in port. It will be
lightered down the river and at once
put down. The pier is also in
course of construction. It will bei
nearly 500 feet long and the trains
will run out to nearly its entire
length, leaving just room enough
for the passengers to debark. This
will save the long walk from the
boat to the train, as has been the
case heretofore. The iron will prob
ably be laid by the fifth of April, at
which time it is expected that the
new engine will have arrived. The
eirs are being overhauled and fit
ted with new trucks and new wheels
and about a dozen cottages have
been erected or are in process of
erection at the Beach. The season
will probably open about the first of
May.
Deatlt of Capt. Boudi not .
Capt. W. E. Boudinot, a gentle
man well known to many of theCape
Fear section, died at his home near
Pittsboro a few days ago. His death
was very sudden. He had just risen
from the breakfast table, given an
order to a servant and made a few
steps towards the door when he sud
denly fell and expired almost instant
ly. Capt. Boudinot was about 72 years
of age. He was adopted, very early
in life, by the late Dr. Fred. J. Hill,
by whom he was educated. He pass
ed a very successful examination at
tee Naval Academy and was assign
ed to duty. He was co tempo rane
eous with Arch. McRae and Rob
ert Savage. He served with
distinction during trie leiaan war
and the beginning- of hostilities be
tween the JSorth and the South
found him serving as master on the
74 gun ship Ohio, one qf the very
finest vessels in the old navy, with
the rank of lieutenant. He prompt
ly resigned and was assigned to daty
in the Confederate Navy, with the
rank of Captain. 'Since the close of
the war he has resided quietly at
Pittsboro.
Capt. Boudinot was a very able
luan. As to this ali of his cotem
poraries agree. He stood very high
in the old Navy an.4 also in that of
the Confederate States. His active
brain first originated the signal ser
vice system and if his suggestions
had been heeded it would have been
adopted years before the war. Capt.
Boudinot leaves a wife, but no chil-
IcCfefi.

With Her Rudder Gone.
The schooner Paejcet, Capt. Joe
Bloodgood. from Njw River, bound
to this port, put in at Wrightsville
yesterday -and reported having
passed the schooner Willie Potter,
Capt. Varehave, with her rudder
gone, four miles off New River bar-
The disabled vessel is from the vV est
Indies, bound for Washington City,
with a cargo of fruit.
Criminal Court.
The following cases were disposed
of in this court to day:
John Watson, assault and battery.
Guilty. Sentenced to the Work
House for 30 days.
John White, larceny. Guilty.
Twelve months in the Penitentiary.
George Bishop, larceny. Guilty.
Sentence not yet pronounced.
Some other minor cases, of no gen
eral interest, were disposed of.
"Sparrowgrase" and Sich.
Mr. L. Tate Bowden, of Wrights
ville, is here to-day superintending
the shipment of a lot of asparagus.
This is the fourth shipment he has
made this season. He is early in the
market and is reaping the benefits
thereof. The last lot he sent North
brought in a bunch. With a few
days of fair weather he says that he
will be able to make large ship
ments. He tells us, by the way, of
something we had never heard be
fore and that is that asparagus
grows only in the night. H,e says
that if you will measure carefully a
sprout of it early in the morning and
then again in the evening, you will
find that it has not grown a particle
during the day, but that if you will
measure the same sprout again the
next morning it'will be found that
it has grown several inches. This,
of course, under favorable condi
tions.
Mr. Bowden also tells us that the
prospectg for strawberries are very
fine, The Messrs. Westbrook have
30 acres in these And the prospects
thus far are excellent. If cold
weather doesn't intervene they will
be early in the market and with a
magnificent crop.
. By Rail to Jacksonville.
And so, after all, we are to have
a railroad from this city to Onslow.
The Wilmington, Onslow & East
Carolina Railroad is no longer a
dream; it is rapidly assuming the
conditions of a fixed fact. The road
will be built and we have assurances
entitled to entire credence that
the road will be completed and the
trains running from this city to
Jacksonville in six months from this
date. We can take our New Rivers
on the half-shell right on the spot
next Fall.
Hon. A. M. Waddell is the Attor
ney here for the company, which is
composed of solid business men;
with lots of money behind them.
Messrs. T. A. Molntyre and
othen
prominent business men of Ne wj York
are on the directory. The road will
be built under the charter granted
to the Wilmington, Onslow & East
Carolina R. R., the corporators hav
iag disposed of this charter to the
company. They will get the benefit
of the stock subscribed by the city.
It is a pure business enterprise and
the men who are to build the road
already own large landed interests
in Pender and Onslow counties
which this road is to develop.
A survey at the other end of the
line, from Jacksonville in this direc
tion, has already begun, and in ten
days from this time a surveying
party, under the charge of Capt.
Walter G. McRae, will start out
from this city. The construction
corps will follow just as soon as the
line is located and the work will be
pushed forward to completion just
as rapidly as possible. There will
he no delay for the want of funds.
Col. Manning is in charge of the
construction corps and we under
stand that he says he will at .once
pat 500 men to work. He says that
he will have the voad completed to
Scott's tttll in four months and
trains moving to Sneed s Ferry U
tide of six months,

There are some wild Indians in
town and they had a parade through
the streets this afternoon, but one
of them came to grief. His pony,
which was apparently wilder than
his rider, got the bit between his
teeth and started on a run. He
brought up at the Postofflce corner

a heap on the sidewalk. The Indian
got a right bad ut on the thumb,
which Dr. Wood sewed up for him.
