fitting terms.

WILMINGTON, N, C,
The Lenten season will soon be
over, and then will come the festiv
ities of Easter.
But few people from the surround
ing country are to be seen upon our
streets, they being kept at home
busy with the farming operations of
the season.
City Court.
The following were the proceed
ings in the City Court this morning:
Wright Matthews, drunk and
down, was fined $5 for the offense.
M. Best, colored, assault and bat
tery, $5 or S days.
Charles Sterling, colored, disor
derly conduct, discharged.
In the cases of several men and
boys, charged with gambling, the
hearing was continued until further
evidence could be obtained.
Careless Writing.
Here are a couple of items, cut
from one day's exchanges, which
show how careless men will some
times be:
The sexton dug up a fine gentle
man's gold ring in the cemetery.
Such a notice makes it very easy
for that fine gentleman to obtain his
ring.
Are'nt this weather too lovely for
any thing but love and wooing.
Apostrophe in the first word mis
placed and form plural when it
should be singular. Perhaps we
might answer the query by saying
it am.
The Shipwrecked.
The cast away men who were
blown adrift last Sunday while on
board the barque Albatross bound
hence to Norfolk, and who were res
cued from that vessel by the steam
er State of Texas, Stewart, of the
Mallory line, from New York to Fer
nandina, and taken into Port Royal,
S. C, have all returned to this city
safe and sound and with lots of ex
perience. Mr. C. W. Kunold, who
is one of the rescued passengers,
states that they were rescued about
4 p. in. on the day of the disaster by
the above steamer, the wind blow
ing a hurricane at the time and with
a fearful sea running, so that it
seemed impossible for a boat to live
a moment in the seething waters.
A boat, however, through the most
skillful seamanship, combined with
dauntless courage, was successfully
launched and the imperilled crew
were safely lauded on the deck of
the steamer, much to their joy and
relief from the fear of a terrible
death. While on board the barque
everything possible was done to
heave the vessel to the wind but at j
efforts were futile and she drifted
completely at the mercy of the re
lentless waves. The rescued men
were treated with the kindest con
sideration by the officers and crew
of the State of Texas, to whom they
are deeply grateful. We congratu
late them and their families for a
deliverance from their great, peril.
A Grand ! Enterprise.
Capt. M. Frank, of Columbus,
Miss., Col. A. E. Thornton, of At
lantaeGa.,and Mr. George L. Baker,
of Selma, Ala,, are in the city. Capt.
Frank represents the American
Cotton Oil Trust, and the party are
here for the purpose of inviting bids
for the construction of the necessary
buildings here for one of the largest
cotton see'd oil mills in the South.
The company have contracted for a
300 horse power Heine boiler and a
300 horse power Corliss engine and
expect to put in newly invented
machinery which will workup forty
tons of seed per day, besides opera
ting the machinery which now forms
the oil cake. The plant, which will
be located on the Grafflin property
at Hilton, will be on a magnificent
scale, the intention of the company
being to use about 200 tons of seed
per day, but the buildings will be
constructed with the view of doub
ling that quantity. The company
will soon apply for a chapter of in
corporation with an authorized cap
ital of $250,000. The supply of seed
will be drawn mainly from this
State and that portion Qf South
Carolina bordering on the Atlantic
coast line. The mills, including the
warehouse, will front 450 feet on the
Wilmington, Columbia & Augusta
Railroad. The property extends to
Smith's Creek, upon which it has a
frontage of 800 feet, so that the
wharfage and railroad facilities for
handling will be ample. It is in
tended to have the mills in opera
tion by the 1st of September, in sea
son for the coming crop.

Eggs were selling at 12$ cents per

A good coat of whitewash is being

Early vegetables are being brought

It has been quite a long time since
we have had a good opera or thea
trical company to entertain our peo
ple. Where are they all, and why
is this thus?
Nor brig Abbie Clifford, Store,
cleared to day for St. Pierre, with
259,799 feet lumber and 192,250
shingles, valued at $5,500, shipped
by Mr. . E. Kidder's Son.
The trees are putting qn their
Spring dresses in earnest. We note
no particular change in style over
previous years, but they look be
coming and beautiful, nevertheless-
There are quite a number of places
in the city where the streets and
sidewalks are sadly in need of re
pairs, and w expect that they will
be attended to as soon as possible.
The meetings at the Baptist
Chapel, corner of Fifth and Woos
ter streets are well attended and
considerable interest is being mani
fested. There were eight who asked
for the prayers of the congregation
at the meeting last night.
Travel to the Sound is percepti
bly on the increase, but it will be
two or three weeks before the sea
son will fairly set in. We expect
that there will be an unusual rush
of visitor to all our seaside pleas
ure resorts during the'season.
Distinguished Arrivals.
Governor Fowle, accompanied by
Quartermaster General F. A. Olds,
arrived in the city this morning,and
soon after breakfast left for the
Sound, where the permanent en
campment of the N. C. State Guard
is to be held. They were accom
panied to the Sound by Opt T. W.
Strange, of the Governor's staff, Col.
J. W. Atkinson, Maj. R. M. Mcln
tire, Messrs. E. S. Latimer, J. H.
Watters and others of this city
They had not returned when our re

we were unable to-day to give any

The surveying party of the Wil

survey of the line this morning.
They began in the Southern part of
the city near Kidder street and will
push the work as rapidly as possible
to completion, and the construction
will be commenced just as soon as
a sufficitnt length of line is located
to determine its definite course. The
surveying party is composed of Mr.
Robert Lamb, Chief Engineer, Mr.
F. L. Pitman, locating engineer, and
Mr. Walter G. McRae, constructing
engineer, together with their neces
sary assistants. This movement
seems to look as if the Wilmington,
Onslow & East Carolina Railroad
is an assured fact, and that its
completion will be at no distant da
A Festive Occasion.
There was an elegant gathering of
youth and beauty at the residence
of Mr. George W. Harper, on Green

the impressive marriage ceremony
of his lovely daughter, Rosa Harper,
with Mr. J. B. Hewlett, also of
