Notice to Skaters.
We arc requested to state that there will be
skating at the City Hall on this (Wednesday)
evening instead of to-morrow evening, as the
hall on Thursday evening will be used by the
Wilmington Institute in giving an exhibition
for Ihe benefit of the poot of Wilmington,
Particulars of the exhibition will be given
to-morrow.
Tlie School Tax.'
Hereafter the amount of money required for
school purposes and the payment of teachers,
in he several counties of the State, must be
levied by the County Commissioners and paid
to the Sheriffs for this special purpose. This
is an important matter, as the public wish can
be gratified to any extent H may desire by In
dicating the amount of taxation it is willing to
bear.
In our county we need 35 to 40 schools. The
cost mnat reach $15,000. It would be well to
have some expressions of opinion on this sub
ject - ' ' '
The New Map r.the Clly.
A large and neatly executed map ol the city,
made in pursuance of the act of the Legisla
ture of the State ratified the 14th day o March,
1870, extending the corporate limits of the
city, has recently been prepared by Messrs.
James & Brown, City Surveyors, one copy of
which la retained in the City Hall, one furn
ished the Superior Court Clerk's office -and
one sent io the office of the Secretary of State
at Raleigh. According to this map the c ty Is
now comprised of 537 blocks, is bounded on
the South by Greenfield street, on the East by
Seventeenth street and on the North by Hilton
street and Smith's Creek. , The new limits
take in nearly the whole of Oakdale Cemetery
and a portion of Pine Forrest Cemetery,
though of course the streets terminate on each
bide of these sacred enclosures. The lines of
the different railroads centering in this city
are also plainly marked on the map. This ia
now tho legal map of the city and persons
wishing to obtain any In'ormatlon. relative to
the status of the city In a geographical 'sense
have but to call at the Mayor's.office or at the
Superior Court Clerk's office and examine one
of them. !

On April 1st, 1871, the last $10,000 bonds
issued In 1851 by the city in payment of Its
subscription to the Wilmington and Man

Elder of the Wilmington district, delivered

A friend suggests that if an arrangement
6f the sort could be made by which our citi
zens could list their State and County taxes at
the same time they do their city taxes, they
would be relieved of not only the necessity of
making two trips to the City Hall for the purr
pose, but would also save time and trouble.
Heretofore, he says, they were always listed at
the same time. . -

n unfortunate difficulty occurred at the

ufternoon, about 6 o'clock, between Mr. John
McEntee.an employee onthe Wllmlngtotfand

standing had occurred -between them about a
child, and that Mr. Barnltz went to Mr. Mc
Entce'a house, armed With 'A double-barrel
gun. The latter seeing'the former approach
inir, also armed himself with V revolver.
Hcacblng the house, Marnitt leveled bis gun at
McEntee, who had opened a crack of the
door, and commenced firing, discharging
both barrels of hiaktlece. McEntee In the

the latter with, pistol raised 'with the In-
tenttdn ot firing upon him again, but says that
the weapon snapped, when fiarnitz struck him
over the head with' the butt end of hit gun.
The parties then clinched,. but were soon sep
arated by persons who bad gathered from the
neighborhood. Dr.J. F. King subsequently
dressed the wounds of Mr. McEntee, When it
"as found that he bad received two scalp
wounds and one over the left eye just above
the frontal bone, which bad slightly fractured
the skull. He also received a slight bird-shot
wound in the hand. , . : ; --. - ,

MARINE DISASTER, i
Capt. Fisher, " Of the 8chr: Sarah Bsuen
which arrived at this port this morning, re
ports that the Schr. Ann Doyle, Capt. L. C.
Bunce, of Northport, L. I., from Jacksonville,
Fla., bound to New York, when about s'even
miles south ol Cape Hatteras, on the 2lst Inst,
was struck by a gale of wind which carried
away her foremast, mainmast and jibboom,
with the sails , and spars, thereby rendering
her unmanageable. The following day the
Sarah Uruen came up with the wreck, and
towed her Into Hatteras Inlet. The Ann
Doyle was loaded with lumber. We since learn
from the Newborn Times that the vessel, by
great effort, was saved and brought to anchor
(at that port we pfcsujrne) at 10 o'clock Mon
day night. .',';;- . ,.
We learn that Capt. John Carson, of the
U. 8. Revenue Steamer E. A. Stevens, station
ed In the waters below Newbern, has been or
dered to the command of the Revenue Cutter
Tim. H. Seioard, stationed at this point. The
Times says Capt. Carson has shown hlmse'f to
be a most efficient officer and a gentleman
while on dnty there. We can say the same for
Capt. Usher, now in command of the Seward.
We had not heard of Capt. U.'s intended de
parture from his present post of duty. f ,

The Raleigh Telegram learns
that a gentleman by the name of W. D.
Holt, living near Boon Hill,' Johnston
county, was murdered by some person un
known, near that .place on Monday about
10 o'clock; A. M. He had gone with some
ladies from his residence to "Boon Hill,
and on his reture alone was shot and in
stantly kilted by some person who laid in
ambush for him. Twenty-four buck shot
entered his left side and breast.
The Raleigh Sentinel says :
Our theatres are likely to remain closed
during the present year, thanks to the
present Revenue Act. We are informed
that no company of actors can afford to
pay the tax imposed ly the present Act,
and that the revenue derived from this
source last year will be entirely lost under
the present Act.. The State, county and
city tax minimum tax is $25 for the
first night, or for three nights, which is
an average season, the tax will be too,
with rent, printing, advertising, &c,
added, amounting to at least $150 more
This of course kills the goose effectually.
When will our Legislators learn that low
taxes and much revenue go hand in hand.
