'A Traveller Imprenalons of Wll-

! Horatio, N. , Beach fEsqi, of the TJrock-
port CN". T.)i BepuUiCr whoy has, been travel
ling through the South, writes an interesting
letter tohis paper from this city., After
alluding to the modus' operandi of making
cottdb, ground peas, turpentine, rosin, pitch;
ocjn this State, describing the lands, the
manner of cultivating them, and their ap
pearance generally, including a description
oi me various towns through which he
passed, he finally gives his experience of
matters and things in Wilmington, from
Mfhich we take some extracts, as follows:
"Wihnington is situated on the Cape Fear
river twenty-ehzht miles above its moni.h
The site of the city is a range of sand hills.
wiucu rise up prooaoiy unriy ieet above the
river. Its location is naturally pleasant, be
cause much of it overlooks the river, which
is about half a mile in width, and teems
wun a variety ot cratt. - it was founded in
1735 by the English, and is a very old place,
of which fact it bears many signs. Its
population is about twenty thousand."
Alluding to our lovely specimen of a
Market House Mr. Beach says:
' " Wilmiaerton has a curious old market
house, and it is curiously occupied. A good
variety of meats, fish, fruits and vegetables
are onerea ior sale, partly by white dealers
and partly by colored. Several old colored
"aunties kept refreshment stands, where
numerous colored people procured substan
tial food at a low price. -. Meats of all varie
ties were sold at about a shilling a pound.
r isn dv tne " string" were sow at a price
equivalent to about eight cents a pound.
Among the meats offered were venison,
coons, 'possum ('"possum up a eum tree").
rabbits, &c. Sweet potatoes were sold by
the producers at 75 cents a bushel, and re
tailed at $ l.v
Of 'the- advantages of the route from
North to South by way of this city, "our
hotels and the press, the Republic says:
" The route by the way of Washington,
Richmond and Weldon to this place is un
doubtedly the best that can be taken by
Eirsons traveling to the South. The Purcell
ouse here is kept by Mr. J. R. Davis, a
very obliging and 'thoroughly competent
landlord, and is justly popular with the
traveling public.
There are three daily papers published
here. The Star, at least, is an able and
enterprisingly conducted Journal."
Of matters relating to our business pros-
pects and the improvements in this particu
lar which gradually manifest themselves,
Mr. Beach discourses as follows:
" It has not been my aim to study ud the
local, political and social questions; but
meeting an intelligent gentleman who has a
large direct and indirect interest m the
prosperity of that section, who volunteered
to express his opinions. I give them for the
beneht of the reader, adding on my part
that they appeared very sensible? At the
close of the war, he said, many of the old
people wnose wealth had been swept away,
died from grief. The war extinguished a
aeai oi capital, besides that invested in
slaves. The negroes in their new relation
did not harmonize in sentiment with the
whites, and to their poverty was added stag
nation of business. Of late there had been
an improvement, as denoted by increased
business. He believed that Wilmington
would derive a great advantage from the
new order of tilings, for, said he, before the
war the produce, they shipped to Northern
markets; -and in the Northern markets
bought their plantation supplies. This trade,
he. said, now went ta Wilmington mer
chants, who receive twice as much, patron
age as they did before the war, for all the
producers sell their crops here and purchase
their supplies. , The same advantages may
be worked out in other directions. There
is a broad field for enterprise and well di
rected labor." '

We are pained to announce the death

a day or two since. Dr. Robinson had been
a resident of this city for many years, and
was closely identified with the agricultual

Having alluded in Sunday's paper to
the fact that a colored man by the name of
Charles Meares had never -charged more
than the regular price during the prevalence
of the horse disease, we are now informed
that Mr. Martin Neilan can also be classed
in this category.
The city authorities should require the
the old building on the Southwest corner of
Seventh and Mulberry streets to be either
reshlngled or torn down altogether, for as
it now stands it is nothing more than a
tinder-box and exceedingly dangerous to
other property surrounding it In fact, we
learn that the roof has already been on fire
on two occasions.

Ialvlng: Advertisements.
A medicine that has done more than all the pre
scriptions of the pharmacopeia to protect the human
system against the bodily ills superinduced by un
healthy surroundings, is certainly worthy of univer
sal confidence. It Is mainly on account of its extra
ordinary preventive properties that' Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters Is so exceedingly popular in locali
ties subject to the visitation of miasmatic fevers sad
other diseases produced by empoisoned air. A fam
ily that has escaped sickness during a sickly, season
in consequence of using the Bitters as a safeguard, is
a living advertisement of the virtues of the prepara
tion. The whole neighborhood realize the fact "I
couldnf have believed It,n says one. "I scarcely
credited the advertisements; but one must believe
what one sees," says another. " It is the very thing
we need in this unwholesome section of country,"
remarks a third. And the result is that the instinct
of self-defense, the first law of nature, induces three
fourths of that eominonity to obtain a supply of the
great vegetable antidote before the next sickly sea
son sets in. In winter, when the system requires ex
tra vigor and elasticity to enable it to baffle the ef
fects of damp and cold, the Bitters will be. found par
ticularly serviceable. Rheumatism will not be apt to
fasten upon muscles and nerves that have been
braced up by this excellent invigorant and nervine;
nor will the severities of the season, which have
such a disastrous effect on the pulmonary organs of.
the feeble and delicate, be likely to exercise the same
untoward influence in esses where the stomach and
the external surface of the body (which always sym
pathizes with the digestive organs) have been toned
and stimulated by a course of the restorative. The
fits of indigestion and irregularities of the bowels
which proceed from sudden changes of weather may
always be averted by a timely use of the Bitters.
