NOTES OF OUR BRETHREN,
Some GleanlBKB from ilie Notices In
Oar North Carolina Exchanges ou
the Late Press Convention. -
We have made extracts previously from
the Raleigh Jfeics. Since! then other notices
of the Press Convention! recently held in
this city have come to hand. '
The Wadesboro Argu declares its editor
couldn't take notes, so busy was he in par
taking the hospitalities of the i city, extended
by both Jew and Gentile: Dr. Harllee, who
writes the account, is enthusiastic over the
visit" We tegret that we cannot 'copy por
tions of his report. - Our j space will render
it necessary for ' us to condense all of the
comments very inuch. 4
The Wadesboro Herald says:
" The State of North Carolina has cause to
be proud of her metropolis in more ways
than one.' Nestled in and among the beau
tiful trees that line every streeUn the city,
with the majestic Cape Fear,1 dotted with
the ships of almost every nation, flowing
past its doors, with the ocean so near that
the roar of the surf may sometimes be heard,
and above all with a hospitable, energetic,
go-ahead people it forms one of the most
delightful places of residence to be found
anywhere in this broad land. In the winter
season there is a salubrity in its climate, and
in Bummer the delightful ocean breezes
which fan the city day and night bring with
them the healthful aroma of the pine, gath
ered from the forests through which they
pass from the sea to the city.
The Hillsboro Recorder edited by Major
John W. Cameron, remarks that "Wilming
ton still retains its reputation for beauty,
and the daughters of old Sweethearts in my
eyes did no discredit to their mothers. As
a matter of obligation incumbent upon my
new position as President of the Association
I did what I have not done these many
years I engaged in the dance, and, with
the pleasantest of partners, it was not hard
todan - : r. . n.
"Three cheers for our little city near the
sea," cries reverend brother Wilson of the
Kinston Gazette. Why "little ?"
The Warrenton Gazette has a half column
editorial brief from which we copy: " On
Wednesday morning, the editors, in com
pany with many invited! guests, boarded
the splendid steamer, . RaleigJl? sent down
from Baltimore for their special use, and
proceeded down the historic Cape Fear to
the Ocean. On the way. Forts Fisher, Cas
well, Smithville and other places of interest
were visited. About 3 o'clock the prow of
the aoble steamer was turned homeward,
and soon after the company was, invited to
a splendid champagne dinner. Gov. Vance,
Congressman Waddell, Capt. Maffitt, of
the Confederate Navy, and many of the edi
tors delivered handsome: and' appropriate
speeches. Dinner lasted i from 3 o'clock
until sunset, and the best! of good fellow
ship prevailed. Thursday morning the As
sociation met in the TJ. Si Court Rooni, and
after transacting Its unfinished business,
electing officers and listening to the address
of James Baron Hope, Esq.; editor of the
Norfolk Landmark, adjourned, and accept
ed an invitation to visit' the Produce Ex
change, where we were heartily welcomed
with speeches, champagne and other deli
cacies. In the afternoon a special train was
placed at, the disposal of the. editors, and
they visited the Navassa Guano Works,
situated about two miles from the city.
After inspecting the works and seeing the
process of guano making, CoL Fremont,
the President, invited his guests to partake
of champagne, wine and, cake. .Thursday
night the festivities and business of the oc
casion were closed by one of the grandest
balls perhaps ever given in the State.
The fraternity left Wilmington highly
pleased with the elegant hospitality of its
people. . .4" .

thank y oa f or 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 ides that It is
as necessary for a man to have s gun built to mess,
urement ss to have a boot so built to ensure a good
lit. The pattern 175 and penetration 40 are very su
perior. The pattern is ss close ss I desire, and the
penetration I think is seldom attained, being far
ahead or any public record which 1 have seen.

so shockingly injured at the Centennial by
the premature discharge of a gun, the
Raleigh Sentinel says The right hand was
amputated and left can hardly be saved.
Dntch Williams, as he is called at home,
belonged to Capt. Manly's artjllery, and
followed the Confederate flag from Raleigh
to the Wilderness, from the Wilderness to
Gettysburg and from Gettysburg to Appo
mattox, and all without a wound. To be
cruelly maimed now looks like a hard fate.
We must do something to hold up the hands
of our friend and comrade. : It is a dear and
sad Centennial to, him. ; , , (-
