DR. WILCOX;
The Observer and other pa'pers are in error,
we fear, in claiming Dr. Wilcox, of Ashe,
as a Democrat. Our information is direct
to the effect that Dr.j Wilcox was an anti
Convention candidate and fully committed
himself to the revolutionary adjournment
policy of the Radicals.- - We trust to Dr.
Wilcox's intelligence to see the error of such
a policy and act for the best interests of his
people, by enlisting himself in the work of
constitutional reform. StatesmUe Landmark,
Trivett, member of the Legislature
and a leading Radical of Ashe coun
ty, writes to the - Kaleigh jEra ' that
Wilcox is an undoubted Republican,
he having voted for Grant in the
Presidential election and tbe Radical
candidate fcir Congress last year.
Trivett further says that Wilcox
took position in the late canvass jn
favor of immediate adjournment.
Trivett also claims Spake, of Jackson,
an
d our man Wilcox, of Transyl- j
vama. j . . i
We give this for what it is worth.

He was engaged to be married to a highly

created some notoriety by a false statement
regarding ex President Johnson's religious

He has been indicted as a confidence man

A Slaxolar Case of Imposition, and
How It ma Exposed.
We heard yesterday of a case of fraud
and imposition practiced by a colored
woman which equals anything of tbe kind
that has ever come to- our knowledge. ; It
seems that about the 3'ear 1855, pne of bur
wealthy and prominent citizens, who was
very indulgent and kind to his slaves as a
general thing, was constrained by the bad
conduct of one or litem, a girr, to sell her
to some parly residing in Alabama. After
the close of tke .war, about ten years hav-'
ing then elapsed since the girl left her
home, the mother commenced a systematic
effort to discover the whereabouts of her
daughter, with the view of inducing her to
come home and live her, or at least in the
the same place. . Numerous leUers"were
written to -parties in Alabama supposed to
know something of the missing girl, and
persons visiting Alabama were requested
to make inquiries about her, but all to nd
purpose.. Finally, homever, a letter was
received from a party in Alabama who rep
resented herself as the long 'lost daughter,"
anxibuVlo return to her old mother and Cheer
her declining years,'requesting that money
be sent to her to pay her expenses to this
place. The mother, overjoyed atbavingat
last heard from; her long-absent offspring
as she shpposed), went to work and soon
got together the desired amount, which was
sent to the writer's address. The pretended
daughter soon after arrived here and was
kindly greeted by the bid womanj though
she failed upon the closest scrutiny to detect
but little if any resemblance between the
supposed daughter and the one who had
left her so many years before.' For this
reason questions were plied very freely
touching circumstances connected with her
youth, so as to prove her identity. Some of
these were answered eonjectly, while others
seemed to puzzle her, which was accounted
foi by the supposed daughter, who feigned
to be somewhat disordered in her faculties
from beine so lone separated from her rela
tives," and for other reasons. ; Matters Went
on in this way for some time, the supposed.;
daughter being supplied with clothing' and
all other necessaries by tbe old woman and
her other children when finally there came
another letter, this time -from Mississippi,'
tbe writer of which also claimed to be j the
missing daughter, stating that she desired i
to come home and making the same request
as the'bther for funds to enable her to d &o.'
Hardly knowing What course to pursue j but
acting partially-, under, the influences j we
have mentioned,: the mother obtained j the .
required sum and forwarded it to the tie w

The latter shortly after" arrived,' presented;

And now for tbe impostor -She was, in
formed of tbe stateof affairs, appeared con
siderably nonplussed, but finally confessed
that she was an impostor. a Her explanation
was to the effect that she became acquaint'
ed with some, one in Alabama who knew all
the circumstances connected with the lost
daughter, being at one time a friend of hers,
and learning what efforts were being made
by the mother here in Wilmtugtou to find
and induce her to return house, she deter
mined topersonate herewith; what success
we uave ancnuy ucuwicu. .
The indignation of the family against the
impostor was very great, eteciHlly. as she

was d riven forth to obtain subsis'teiiee and

Yesterday was a day lono; to be remem

, Wilmington -'Light Infantry 'on board the'
fine, : -iarge . 'and commodious steamship
lialeigA, uadet command, of that genial 'sea
man, Capu Oliver, was the everjt of, the day.
From an eary hour old and young flocked
to the spacious decks of the handsome
steamer.; ;,!At about 8 o'clock the Light In
fantry, in full uniform; aceOmpanied by the
uu"u
Baltimore wharf, and very soon the noble
steam;r, ;with colors flying and a joyous
crowd on board, loosed her moorings ahd
rapidly glided awayf on the transparent
bosom of the Cape Fear. Among the pre -
Cape i ear. Among tne pre
'cipus cargothat trod thespacious decks were
old and young, the gray-haired sire and,
matron,' the middle aged, the dashing youth
and pretty maiden, and the, fierce tyranical
infant that raved ahd roared; that opened
his mouth add tried to stick his foot in it or
tried to gouge his eyes out with his fists,
who would teach you to look out for squalls
when bis face1 became clouded. All were
there, and such another jam; but a pleas
ant jam, said Captain Oliver, or All-over,
as be was called,: when the former cogno
men was found to be inappropriate, be
cause, "when the Rateigh became .(".stuck'' in
the mud (on, 4 lie return trip) it was foqnd
. -i sr. .i..-" . i v s -, ''it-.:. t: ;';v : ,
Ttie day; in all ; respects ,Vwas exceedingly
pleasrtitt and agreeable. 'The dancing com
mit tee 'set their portiouof the arrangements
on fvxtt very soon after the steamer left the
wlmrf, und during the. livelong day, either
on iMwrd, where, ou the second deck, eight
sets were kept going, or in the Academy -at
SmitliVille, Ibe merry throng joining in the
intoxicating mazes of the dance. "At Smith-ll
vBle many . devotees of Terpsichore and per
haps a, few faint hearts , remained, while
the lovers of less gentle sport with those
who were anxious to see the land sink down
the horizon, sought the Blackfish Grounds.
The breeze was excellent, The sea had
oa an animated roll that sent a thrill of
pleasure to the hearts of the old sea-dogs of
thsRaleig and made their pulses throb with
healthfnl excitement; but it seat the bilious
ly inclined landsmen aye, and the ladies
to the Tail, and the salt sea took tribute for
its king of that which from them was due
as the penalty for; trespass on his domains.
The ship rolled and tumbled. The blackfish
waited near,longing for the well baited hook.
but to those stomach-tortured 6duls Black
fish seemed now not half so fair as ODce they
were in dreams. 1 The great sea bared its
ovely bosom all around, but therewere no
eyes now for chaste graces of form or ele"
gance of contour. They were, .'"rocked in
the cradle of thejdeep". but there was' no
power for soothing in the motion or the
ullaby. . They wanted to go home; and
they told the captain so wiih such evident
sincerity beaming in their countenances
thathe kind soul consented tojoregohis
own pleasure as anticipated in : the trip to I
rVinff Pan ShoalS. and to: make the run
or .Smith ville': as quickly; as might be,
though that seemed not "half so. quick as
many would have the good ship go. : v
After the dancers had been taken up and
the mud'banks left behind 'matters went
more smoothly,' and more pleasantly ; The I
return trip was made in good time, and the I
Ealeiali drew nn to her wharf about o'clock
arid discharged the most numerous and, the
worst shaken set of excursionists the season

One of the leading Continental railways has jont
paid a high compliment to a prominent NewKng
laad industry. The St. Johnebory scale manufactu
rer hare just received an order for four of their
Patent Iron Frame Track Scale?, and a leading Eng
lish railroad is now putting in these standard scales.
Meeting in sharp competition the prominent scale
manufacturers of Great Britain -and the Continent,
and winnine, tbese orders are the most ratisfactory
prices which could he awarded.
. It can be readily seen where, some of the 26,053
scales, mano factored at St. Johnsbury the first six
months of the year have gone, for tne weighing of
the world is an immense baainess, and Fairbanks
seems to have the contract. With unsurpassed
manufacturing facilities, with experience dating
bick. nearly a naif century, with a production large
ly in excess of any other, similar establishment in
the world, the Messrs. Fairbanks are: enabled to
manufacture tbe best scales at the lowest price--'
hence the increasing demand for their goods.
