On Monday the principal business in the Senate was the appointment of six gentlemen to meet ten on the part of the House and constitute a joint select committee on Constitutional Amendments, formed of equal num bers of both political parties; the in troduction of a bill by JMr. Waring to establish an Insane Asylum for Chronic Cases at Charlotte; the pas sage of the House bill establishing the Governor's and Treasurer's, sala ries, with an amendment, making the former $4,000 and the latter $3,000. The House , concurred in the Sen ate's amendment to the bill regulating the salaries of Governor and Treas urer, and so the bill becomes a law. The sheriff's relief bill allowing all sheriffs until April 1st to settle was indefinitely postponed. The bill char tering the Wilmington fc Planters Railroad Company passed, but ou motion of Mr. Bennett was reconsid ered and made the special order for yesterday.

TIi e meeting To-Day. All interested in the speedy completion of a Railroad from this city to Onslow county, skirting the seacoast, should not fail to attend the meeting at the Commercial Exchange this morning, at 11 o'clock, when the matterof consolidating the various pro jected lines will be taken into consideration. This Is a matter of serious concern to our people "and they should realize the impor tant fact that note, if ever, is the time to act. The occasion is one that calls for all the en terprise for which the business men of Wilmington have always been noted, and we hope it will be displayed in a proper shape at the meeting to-day. A company is already on the eve of obtaining a charter from the Legislature for a road which will, if constructed, cut off our city from many of its former sources of supplies and our people must be prepared to counteract, as far as possible, what may otherwise in the end prove to be more detrimental to our interests than we can at present imagine. Let there be a large attendance at the meet ing this morning and such a concert of action determined upon as will insure the speedy completion of the Wilmington and Planters' Railroad. 4 St. John' Lodge. The following officers were elected and appointed for the ensuing Masonic year at a special meeting of St John's Lodge No. 1, F. & A. M., held last evening: H. II. Munson, W. M. 8. S. Everitt, S. W.

NefTs wharf, foot of Dock street, on Monday night, and abstracted a sufficient quantity to fill twenty good size bags, and carried it off. Two police officers were put on the track of the missing cotton yesterday morn ing and succeeded in tracing it to a wharf on North'Water street near a cotton press.. Upon the arrival of the proprietor of the press he disclaimed any knowledge what ever of the cotton, it having been left there during his absence, and at his request it was taken to the City Hall to await further de velopments. No clue has been obtained to the perpetrator of the robbery. 4 m i Concord Cbapter. At the regular annual meeting of Con cord Chapter No. 1, held Monday evening, the following officers were elected for the en suing Masonic year: ,C. M. VanOrsdell, M. E. II. P. ; H. H.

Greenburg, T.; B. P. Harrison, S. ; B. G. Bates, T. The fol lowing were appointed: Geo. Patterson, Chaplain; J. C. Mann, Organist Merchants' Licenses. In the House of Representatives on Mon day, Mr. Richardson read a memorial from sundry merchants of this city, Raleigh, Charlotte, and other places In North Caroli na, asking the Legislature to exempt them from paying the . burdensome li- censes, while they are required to list their merchandise- as personal property. No action has yet been taken on the memo rial, but it is supposed that it will receive favorable consideration. Postponement. On-account of the terrible state of the weather yesterday and last night it was deemed advisable by Miss Patterson to post pone her entertainment in Histrionic Read ings and Recitations, which was advertised to take place at the Opera House last night, until to-morrow (Thursday) evening, when it is hoped that it will be more propitious. In the meantime reserved seats can be secured at Heinsberger's Bookstore without extra charge. Lecture. It is to be hoped that the lecture to be delivered under the auspices of the Young Mfin'a niristinn Association bv the "Rev, J. C.

The regular meeting of Wilmington Commandery, for the election of officers, will be held this evening. We have rarely seen a more disagree able day than yesterday. The street cross ings were in a horrible condition. The bill in relation to the destruction of deer in Robeson and Sampson counties has passed its final reading in the House. - Only one short week to Christmas, and yet it will seem a long time to the little ones who are expecting favors from Santa Claus. - There was only one trifling case before the Mayor's Court yesterday morning, and the fine in that was subsequently remitted by the Mayor. We learn that a number of the young gentlemen of this city propose to give a ' hop" at Lippitt's Hall this evening, com plimentary to Miss Jeanie -Patterson. The Chapman Sisters, we now learn, have concluded not to extend their visit to this city during the present season. They will come no nearer here than Sumter. A tree was cut down across the side walk on the West side of Sixth, between Chestnut and Mulberry streets, several days ago, and it still remains in that position, making it necessary for pedestrians to take the middle of the street to get by it. Adelphean Literary Society. At a meeting of the young gentlemen composing the above Society, held at Brook lyn Hall last evening, the following officers were eleetcd for the ensuing term: President E. P. Bailey. Vice President E. G. Parmalee. Treasurer J. D. Burr. Query Committee H. W. Finlayson, W. W. Hodges, H. W. Shaw. Supervising Committee H. W. Shaw, R. B. Hartsfield. W. J. Smith. Financial Committee J. D. Burr, J. B. Schulken, A. C. Craft We are glad to learn that the Adelphean Society is in a prosperous condition. It has only been in existence about three months and it now numbers twenty members. These societies are very beneficial to the youth of the city and as such deserve every encouragement. Nearly Suffocated. The absence from his post of the night guard employed at the county jail, a few nights ago, came near resulting seriously to the prisoners. By some accident the gas lights all went out and the atmosphere of the cells became so impregnated with the gas that the prisoners coma scarcely breathe. They became frightened and shouted so lustily that Jailor Nashwas aroused from his slumbers. Being under the impression at the time that the prison ers were attempting to escape he secured the necessary assistance and proceeded to examine into the matter, when he discov ered the cause of the demonstration on the part of his boarders. They made a narrow escape and the guard deserves the severest censure for his inattention. Fonl Chimneys. A foul chimney on Second, between Market and Dock streets, caught fire yester day afternoon and continued to burn so long a time and to emit such a glaring flame and such a quantity of sparks, that some uneasiness was felt, notwithstanding everything was wet from the rain which had been falling during the day. The reg ular old-fashioned chimney-sweep is an in stitution much needed in this city. Chim neys should always be kept as free from soot as possible, otherwise they are danger ous. Narrow Escape. A gentleman accidentally walked over board near the foot of Dock street, last night, and but for the fact that a number of colored men were close at hand and hur ried to his assistance it is more than likely he would have been drowned. As it was he only suffered the inconvemence of a cold bath, which of itself was anything but pleasant Cars Thrown from the Track. We learn that an accident occurred on the Wilmington, Columbia and Augusta Railroad, yesterday morning, a short dis tance beyond Mars Bluff, by which five or six freight cars were thrown from the track. We did not ascertain the extent of the dam age. Says the Charlotte Home: In November, the house of Rev. H, T. Sloan, residing near Cedar Spring, Abbeville coun tv. S. C. was burned by an incendiary. He lost his sermons, books, papers, furniture the labor of a life-time swept away in a mo ment The pecuniary damage to him, to sav nothinz of literary loss, amounts to from 4.000 to 5.000.

Mr. Powell moved to make the Treasu rer's salary $3,000. Mr. Dunham thought &3.000 was suffl- cientlv small for the Treasurer. He had this Fall been one of a committee to exam ine the Treasurer's books, and he had some idea of the duties performed by tha officer, and he hoped the amendment would pre vail.

It Company, and if so, then by consoli dation, or pnrchase, or lease, or a armers and Planters' Road, would be entitled to alternate sections of the Public School lands in Onslow and Jones counties.
