A paper was recently read before
the Loudon Statistical Society giving
Tn nnmrtai on1 tnnnQrTO' nf tha m
chant steamers and sailing vessels of
all nations in 1870 and 1874. The
number orsailinff vessels in 1870 was.
59,9187Hoonage 16,042,498; in 1874
the number was 52,289 tonnage 14,
523,630. The number of steamers in
1870 was 4,132 tonnage 2,793,432;
in 1SG4 the number was 5,865 ton
nage 5,226;8S8. From which it will j
1)0 seen that the number of sailing
vessels throughout the world, has de
creased, and that there is a vrery large
increase in steamers', the latter being
nearly ninety per cent, and the for
mer about ten per cent. At this ratio
of increase there would be more steam
than sail tonnage afloat. The total
tonnage of the great nations indicate
their relative rank as follows: First,
Great Britain; second, the United
States; third, Sweden and Norway;
fourth, Italy; fifth, Germany; sixth,

Couldn't we have a better sys

present? t .; '
It jwas moderately feverish
around the city last evening awaiting the
result of the election. .
'We understand that the Cape
Fear Light Artillery Company realized
about the sum of $90 by the recent excur
sion to Smithville and the Blackfish
Grounds. .
: Complaint is made that in some
sections of the city trash end garbage which
has been put upon the, streets is left there
some times as long as two weeks. At this
particular season of the year all the streets
should be thoroughly cleansed every day.
Owing to some difficulty exist

the Company will be suspended in cases of
fire for a few days, or until the matter is ar
ranged.

Residents in the neighborhood of the
railroad, on Fonrth street, complain that
certain parties who are not known, except
thajt they are colored, have been in the
habit for the last two or three nights of
tearing palings from the-fences, hooting
and shouting after , night, to the great an.
noyance of all quiet and orderly citizens in
that vicinity. .Such conduct should be
stopped at once, and all order-loving peo
ple, both white and colored, have an Inter
est in bringing such offenders to justice.
Attempted Bobbery.
We learn that the residence of Mr. Jersey
Hopkins, who lives on Fifth, between Dock
and Orange streets, was visited by a burglar
early yesterday morning, but happily he
was discovered in time to prevent the dep
redations he had evidently intended. It ap
pears that the servant went out into the
yard about 4 o'clock, when the discovered
a man standing at a w'mdowrwhiclr had
been left open to admit the air. The girl
ran into the house to alarm the family,- but
when they arrived on the spot the would-be
burglar had fled. , , ,,

We learn by.a telegram received here that
Capt. Thompson, of the B Brig ' Sterling,
which was cleared; from this port for Lon
don on the 21st nit., by Messrs, Alex. Sprunt
& Son, had in some manner received such
severe injuries that it was found necessary
to put into Halifax, N. S., to secure another
master in his place. ' Capt. T. is spoken of
in very high terms as an bfflcer. and man;
and the accident is very much regretted. .

f An alarm of fire was souDded last even

some striking uncertainties,- accused the
Fifth Ward of incendiary proclivities, but
though the gallant Bucket Company rushed
out prepared for an encounter with the en
emy be did not put in an appearance. It
was a false alarm.
WILMINGTON, N. CM FRIDAY. AUGUST 6! 1875.
ELECTION IN THE CITY.
Same Old Tnlne.
The election in this city yesterday for
delegates to the Convention and for town
ship officers passed off very quietly. We
failed to hear of the least disturbance at
any of the polling places, or of auy unpleas
ant words being exchanged between the
rival parties. The whites as a general
thing, and we believe it was the case for
the most part wUbthe colored people, voted
and went about their business. There was
less noise and confusion around the polls
than is usual on such occasions even here,
where, with a few notable exceptions, elec
tions have always been conducted in a quiet
and orderly manner. , . i
An amusing incident occurred in the 2d
Ward during the forenoon, which created
considerable stir for a time. It seems that
a private box had been prepared for an In
dependent candidate for Magistrate at large,
which some michicvous persons placed at
the front door of the Court House, while
the voting was going on at the rear. Into
this box tickets for the candidate - referred
to were crammed by the wholesale, asMt
was known that they would not be counted.
The party referred to finally heard of what
was going on and had the box removed! at
the same time announcing the fact that he
should indict all who had any connection
with the matter before the United States
Commissioner, as he stated that several
parties had voted for him in good faith.
: Among the dodges resorted to by the Re
publicans was the following, which was ex
tensively circulated and posted in promi
nent localities, being the most noted but
flimsy:

thank you for the fidelity with which yon 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 necessary 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

penetration I think is seldom attained, being far
