Who Wm tbe M ordered nan ? Some " Facts, Incidents and Sngsesllons Relative to tbe Sad A flair. Touching the mystery connected with the finding of the dead body of the stranger at ar point known as Rat Island, about five miles above this city, an account of which appeared in this paper on the 9th inst;, to gether with the particulars of the Coroner's investigation in the- case, we have been fur nished with' the following possible partial solution: About two months since, it ap pears, a number of gentlemen happened at a saloon on Front street and engaged in a game of billiards.;! As theame was abovu to commenced person in the room, who was an entire stranger to the party, asked permission-to join them, which was granted. The straDger was very reticent during' the progress of the games in which he partici pated, saying nothing except when necessity ab9olately-reqmdat.and.Jii?irtBg-te: suffering in mind from some trouble. never introduced himself by name and the letter R was used to designate it by the game-keeper. ; The stranger .was neatly dressed and his general appearance answered very nearly to the description "given, of the man who was found drowned at Rat Island, including his apparel, etc. He was seen the follow ing day at the same saloon, after which he disappeared and nothing further was seen or heard of him. These facts, which would have speedily passed from the minds of the gentlemen referredto, were recalled to their recolltlilon by lh finding of the rnysteri 011s body, u.iih. from tbe bullet hole dis covered in the icgion of the heart of the deceased, had evidently been foully . dealt In connection with this sad affair it may be proper to state that circulars were re cently dispatched through the country, one of which is now "posted in the City Hall of Wilmington, announcing the mysterious 'disappearance in the latter part of Decem ber last of a man p.amed Walter B. Abbott, a resident of Tuckerton, N: J, who was last seen in Philadelphia, a reward of $200 being offered for any information concern ing him. The description of the missing man very nearly tallies with that of the mysterious body found at Rat Island,, both as regards personal ' appearance and wear ing apparel. Mr. Abbott had on his person when he left homeourteen $100 bills, be sides a considerable amount in bills of a less denomination, j ' From alt the circumstances that have come to light in connection with the Rat Island mystery, it is evident that a foul and atrocious murder has been committed al ""- -""rr Tidqt nnd everv reas onable effort should be made to pierce tUe" obscurity in which the bloody tragedy is at present enveloped. ; Such an affair should not be'suffered to pass .into oblivion un heeded. f ' mrn'm m ' Pender Coanty.

The Senate Wednesday night, by a vote of 26 to 12, passed the bill on third reading to establish an asylum in this city for the insane negroes of the State. There is an appropriation of $10,000 a year and a sup port of $200 a year for each inmate. Dr. Grissom, of the State Insane Asylum at Raleigh, with the same Board of Directors will manage the asylum. The colored in sane from the asylum at Raleigh will be re moved to the. asylum in this city. . This seems to be a move in the right di rection, for without a doubt an asylum for the colored insane is much need in the State,; and this city is a very suitable loca tion for such an institution. The Cotton Factory. The machinery iSj' being' placed in the cotton factory as rapidly as possible, but owing to unavoidable delays we learn that it will probably not commence operations until about the 1st of June. As upon the practical inauguration of this important en terprise a new era of prosperity is expected to dawn upon our city, the time indicated for the. commencement will no doubt be looked forward to with a good deal of in terest 4r m " ; ..

Attention i called to the ad vertisement of Mr. A. C. Waddell, laj another colamn. Through the solicitation of many aporta men,1 Mr. Waddell haa established, at Newton, New Jersey, a breeding kennjel for the improvement of Field Dogs, a want felt very keenly by Southern eportBmea since the war, most1 of the fine stock having been either stolen or killed daring the war. Although Mr. Waddell has hac. bnt little more than a year tocprocure and breed from fine Imported and native stock, yet the many flattering notices that he haa received from parties to whom he has sent dogs, in different States, prove that his ' undertaking has been appreciated. At the Mineoia County Fair," Long Island, last Fall, his pointers and setters .took the first prize over the large number of dogs' on ex-' hibitlon. It would be well for all admirers of fine field dogs to give Mr. Waddell a trial. Lost. On Monday night on Third, between the City Hall and Market street, a large size Smith & Wesson's six' shooter. The hammer waa once broken off and has been filed down making it shorter than it shoa'd be. A reward of two- dollars will be paid by leaving it at the City Hall, care.
