We are very sorry to hear that
our esteemed friend, Judge Banner
man, of Pender county, is quite
sick at his home in Burgaw, but
hope to hear better reports of him
as soon as the mild weather is with !
us.
Mr. C. F. King, wtiobas been here
for a week past for the purpose of
writing up our city for the Atlanta
Constitution, has completed the work
and left here this afternoon on his
return to Charlotte, his headquarters.
Mr. H. A. London, of the Chat-
ham Record, who as an aide on Gen.
Brvan Grimes' staff carried the last
order at Appomattox, indulges in
the following reflections on the 25th
anniversary of Lee's surrender:
North Carolinians have the proud
satisfaction of knowing that the
brave soldiers from their State won
the first .victory of. the war at Big
Bethel, on the 10th of June 1SG1,
and tired the last volley at .Appo
mattox on "the 9th of April, 1SG5.
The last effort made by . Lee's army
to break through Grant's encircling
columns was the charge made at
Appomattox by the troops com
manded by JJajor General .Bryan
Grimes. For a mile they drove back
the superior numbers of the enemy,
and only retired when ordered by
Gen. Lee, who, realizing the hope
lessness of further efforts, hadenter-
d into negotiations for a surrender.
The' total number of Confederates
paroled at Appomattox was 28,231,
but there were barely 10,000 effect
ive men present for duty on the
morning of the surrender. The dif
ference is explained by the state
ment that after the army halted
thousands of stragglers and detailed
men rejoined their commands."

fying the blood and curing sick
headache and dyspepsia, there is

The Second Aiann.
The second alarm of fire this
morning, turned in from box 43, was
caused by the ignition of the roof of j
a small frame dwelling on Sixtni

occupied by a colored family. The
damage was slight and it was cov
ered by insurance.

The First Alarm.
The -alarm of fire this morning,
about 9 o'clock, from box 20, corner
Front and Red Cross streets, came
from the residence of Mr. Jos. F.
Sellers, on Second street, between
Red Cross and Campbell. The house
caught on the roof, probably from a
spark. Messrs. W. E. Worth & Co.,
of the fee factory, near at hand, soon
had a stream playing on the build
ing and the fire was all out in a very
few minutes and before the steamers
could get there." It was quick work
and good work as there was much
wind at the time and a serious dis
aster was probably averted. .The
damage to the house was slight. It
is the property of Mrs. Thomas B.
Smith and i3 insured with Messrs.
Smith & Boat wright, in the Liver
pool, London & Globe, for $400. Mr.
Sellers1 furniture was damaged by
water and removal. It was insured
for $200 with Messrs. Atkinson &
Manning, in the North Carolina
Home Insurance Co.

months old. No extra price will be

treat to the Portner Co.V patrons

Teach Trees iy inc.
There seems to be a blight in the
peach trees in Pender county. Quite
a number have been lost at orchards
near South Washington and ftur
gaw. One of our friends. has-lost
nearly half of them. No one seems
to understand exactly whai it is that
kills them whether there is a bug
at work somewhere or whether the
recent cold weather struck to the
roots and killed them. This latter
seems to be the general opinion, al-
though the same trees have escaped,
in former seasons, much harder
weather than we have had duriDg
the past Winter.
