GOOD NEWS.
The Raleigh News has a, letter from
an Edgecombe correspondent who
was opposed to Convention before
the Legislature called it. The writer
says the Conservatives will make a
gain of 500 votes in the next election
over their last vote. The1 negroes
have been deceived so long and so
often that they, have become dis
heartened. He adds: "North Car
olina's greatest misfortune is she
never puts'enough life and vigor into
her campaigns. Every good man
should take i part privately or pab
licly." " .

WILMINGTON, N. C; FRIDAY.!
Bath Rooma
It has often been a subject of much won
derment why some of our barbers have not
even show a disposition to run bath rooms
in connection twilh their : barber ; shops;
strictly speaking, it is a branch of the art
tonsorial, and apart from that, it strikes us,
bath rooms would pay7 handsomely. There
are a good many Of " our citizens who have
not the conveniences for bathing at home,
and we venture to say that even those who
have would patronise freely vpublic bath
rooms rather than go to the trouble, under
the present lamentable system of labor, of
having water pumped or carried up to their
bath rooms; while on the other hand there
are a good many who are compelled to go
through a process of ablution in ordinary
washing tubs, with the Imminent danger of
fracturing a limb in trying to crowd them
selves in a tub! much too small for them.
Let the barbers give the, subject! of public
bath rooms their serious attention, now that
summer is close upon us..
Arrest of an Escaped Convlet. ,
Special Deputy James K. Davis, colored,
arrested an escaped prisoner last . night,
about 8 o'clock by the name" of Eli John
son. It appears that -Johnson had, about
four weeks: ago, undergone an examination
in two cases, for'assauhV and battery and
larceny, one before the City Court and the
other before a Magistrate's Court, in one of
which he had been bound over to the Su
perior Court and in the other had been sen
tenced to pay the costs and to be imprison
ed for thirty days. Subsequently he was
taken to the Vtf. & W, R. R. depbt for some
purpose, in cukody of Officer Davis, when
by some means he effected his escape and
had since eluded capture. The officer came
upon him last night, at the corner of Prin
cess and Water streets, and arrested him.
The prisoner struggled and fought man
fully for his liberty, but was finally convey
ed to the county jail and locked up.
Anotner Escaped Prisoner Captnred.
An escaped prisoner by the name of Dan-
ielIack, a colored man, was arrested at
the corner of Fourth and Brunswick streets
last night, about 9 o'clock, by special Dep
uties Strode, Ashe and Whitney. He was
taken into. Mr. C. Hussell's store nearby
and securely handcuffed, after which the
officers proceeded to take him to jail. On
the way the party were followed by two
colored men, friends of the prisoner, who
loudly threatened a rescue, but the fact
coming to their knowledge that the officers
were, plentifully supplied with powder and
ball, with-projectiles of small dimensions
hut of sufficient power to inoculate the pair
with the ingredients referred to,they finally
concluded to leave their friend in the hands
of the law. Mack, we learn, is charged
with, larceny,! and effected his escape about
twelve months ago. i

Recovering: From His Wound.
Mr. J. P.I Hill, a member of Madame
Rentz's troupe, now showing in this city,
has so far recovered from the wounds re
ceived by him at Macon a week or. tw
since, an account of which appeared in our
paper, as to be able to participate in the
performance, which he did last night It
will be remembered that Mr. Hill received
several pistol shot wounds at the hands of
a wrathful "young blood" of Macon, whom
he had previously chastised for presumipg
to inflict his attentions upon Miss Mollie
Demar, a member of the troupe.

z OPEBA HOUSE. - j 1
Madame Henlz's Female minstrels.
The sensation of the season in the theat
rical line took place last night at the Opera
House, j The Female Minstrels reached our
city on the evening train, and as the troupe
bad been extensively advertised and spoken
of,' old land young Wilmington of the mas
culine gender were upon the tip-toe oi ex
citement to witness so rich, so startling and
withal so' gay and festive a throng as the
minstrels were said to be. The orchestra
chairs were the choice Beats of the occasion,
and long before the raising of the curtain
fEey were well filled and many eager spec
tators who had previously secured1 them
were turned away to seek a point . of view
from some other portion of the house. All
classes of citizens were well, need we' say
fully, represented. The business man,, the
professional man, the clerk, accountant
and the boy each sougbt a cosy seat from
which to feast his eyes upon the anticipated
sensation. Oflen.as some staid, sober looking
Benedict almost stealthily walked into the
hall, ad exclamation went up from acquain
tances,! "What! y6u here ?V But still they
came and still the Wonder grew until an
audience congregated that would have done
honor o a more worthy occasion. Yes, "we
venture to say, old friends met who
had - not been so close . together . for
months, and all because the new and
sensational Can-Can and the attendant
performances, with all their unique and
gushing situations, songs and dances, were
to be the attractions of the night There
was not a lady among the audience. , We
"did not -1 e many opera glasses among the
audience, o! card that a gentleman had
sent t J one of luc square-riggers in port to
borrow a marine spy -glass of such immense
power that it was calculated to bring tne
fairy Can-Canners within arm's reach of its
contented possessor. r !
The curtain arose at last, as if in answer
to the numerous rounds of applause that
arose from the parquette and reverberated
to the galleries, and twelve persons, nine of
whom were actresses attired m full dress,
marched in and took their places for the
i ..... r
female minstrel scene. This portion of the
performance was passably fair the major
ity of the jokes and songs being new and
were well recited and sung. i
The olio of specialties, which consisted
of the swinging of ten-pound Kehoe clubs
by Sallic Swift, was well received and
loudly applauded. f
Thei dances, mostly by the female mem
bers of the troupe, who were attired in a ho
wise different style from similar performers
we have often witnessed in' the i Opera
House on many other occasions, were very
good and loudly encored. y
Thej performance consisted of many min
strel scenes, some fine singing and funny
situations, in which Hany Armstrong seem
ed to bear'off the palm among the male
performers. It was only occasionally that
anything in the scenes and situations savor
ed at all of indelicacy, and for the most part
it seemed to us that the great ; body of the
audience were disappointed in this par
ticular. At last the curtain arose on the
Can-Can, and expectation was on tip-toe,
every! spectator seeming to test the length
of his neck, for the occasion. . This portion
of the performance was by many considered
short! of the real Can-Can, as each agile
dancer was fully attired and their nether
limbs were not shown to the extent evi
dently expected, even in the various swing
ings of the waltz, though in that part of the
Can-Can dance loose skirts were thrown
around in such a way as to produce dis
plays of limbs and situations of person not
altogether'calculated to improve the morals
of the lookers-on. !
We do not, of course, . approve of such
performances. They in a great measure
debase the moral tone of any audience when
'too freely indulged in, still there were many
scenes in the performance which were well
rendered, and might be seen in the most
moral-toned theatre; and many which were
perhaps, a trifle too lascivious ands too full
of lively incidents and suggestions for our
latitude. I i

No. 2093, has arrived safely to hand. Allow me to
thank you for the fidelity with which you carried out
my instructions. The general outline, -beauty of
proportion and excellent finish, are all that could be
desired, and more than meets my expectations. I
am more than ever impressed with the idea that It is
as neeessary for a man to have a gun built to meas
urement as to have a boot so built to ensure a good
fit. The pattern 175 and penetration 40 are very su
perior. Tbe pattern Is as close as I desire, and the
penetration I think is seldom attained, being far
ahead of any public record which I have seen. -
