Jackson -was not only a great soldier of the Southern cause he was the most illustrious Lieutenant who ever carried out the orders of a chief, and himself one of the noblest com manders in history. Living, all hon ored him; dead, all pay tribute to his sainted memory." A Heroine by MIMake. Lexington Gazette. One night, not long ago, aburg lar pnfprpil a nrivate residence on Broadway. On ascending one flight of stairs he observed a light in a cham ber, and while deliberating what to do, a large woman suddenly descend ed upon him, seized him by the throat, pushed him down through the hall, and forced him into the street before he had time to think. " Hero'c Re pulse of a Burglar by a Woman" was the way the story was told next day. But when friends called and congrat ulated her npon her courage, she ex- know it was a burglar! If I had, I should have beenlr.ghteued to death. I thought it was my husband come home drunk, and I was determined he shouldn't stay in the house in that condition. Keep (be Brain Fallow In Childhood. When we are considering the health of children, it is imperative not to omit the importance of keep ing the brain fallow, as it were, for several of the first years of their ex istence. The mischief perpetrated by I a contrarv course, in the shape of I bad health, peevish temper and de veloped vanity is incurable. Some infant prodigy, which is a standard of mischief throughout its neignoor- hood, misleads them: bat parents may be assured that this early work is not bv any means all gain, even in the way of work. I suspect j it is a loss, and that children wno Degm their education late, as it would be called, will rapidly overtake those who have been iu "harness long before them.

We learn that the Fibre Factory will resume operations in about a month. Mr. Ballaire will be here in the4 course of the next three weeks to make the neces sary preparations. The brig Nepouset, from this port, has been towed into St George's, Bermuda, leaking badly. She was loaded with naval stores, three hundred barrels of which had to be thrown overboard during a severe gale she experienced on the 10th lust. The Norwegian barque A. O. Vinje, Capt. Hendriksen, lying at the Cot ton Press wharf, .was dressed up in her best, yesterday, in honor, as we understood, of the anniversary of the birthday of the Master's lady. The vessel looked very pretty, we thought, and was having her beauty heightened by a touching-tip of the stripes. Cotton Lively. There is an immense amount of cotton arriving at this port by railroad every day, mostly from Georgia and South Carolina, and destined for northern ports. The vari ous roads, we understand, are about taxed to their utmost to keep up with the great avalanche of the staple which is constantly pouring in upon them. Huge trains, heavily laden, passed through Sunday afternoon, and the cry is, still it comes. The arrivals destined for this place, both by railroad and steamers, are also very heavy, and the compress machinery is kept constantly in motion in preparing the bales for shipment to Europe, by vessels which are wailing for it and taking it in as fast as it comes from the press. All day long and all night long the sound of the compress, very like the distant reverberation of artillery, is heard throughout the city. Work stopped on Sunday, but promptly at half-past 12 Sun day night the machinery was in motion. Oar Bar and River improvements. In our issue of the 13tb inst. we mentioned the fact that among the estimates for river and harbor improvements, contained in the reports of Cols. Craighill and Abert to Gen Humphreys, chief of the Engineer Corps, was one of $310,000 for the Cape Fear River. We now have the additional infor mation, embodied in the reports, that "It is expected by June 30th,'.1876, to have to Wilmington an available channel, with a depth of Hi or 12 feet at low water, equiva- iAnt in 1R or 1G4 feet at bieh water," and with this object in view the appropriation of $210,000 i3 placed among the estimates as tha n mount r en aired for the Cape Fear River for the ensuing fiscal year. . Highway Bobbery. Mr. Rising, residing on Wooster, be tween Ninth and Tenth streets, was down town on some business Saturday nighty arid about 9 o'clock he stopped and had a short conversation with a policeman near Lip- pitt's alley, after which he proceeded through the alley with a view of goiDg home, while the officer left in a different direction. Mr. Rising had gone but a short distance, however, when he was suddenly assailed by two men, one of whom knock ed him down and held him down, wnue the other emptied his pockets, which con tained about 45 in money, He did not re cognize his assailants, aa it was: very dark at the time, but he is under the impression that they were white men.

A letter was received by Maj. J. A. Byrne, yesterday, from Gen. R. E. Colston, dated at El Obeid, Kordofan, August 25th, and also one by Col. John L. Cantwell, in reply to one written by him in April last under the auspices of the Officers of the Third N. C. Regiment, of whil he is Secre tary! in which he says that he is slowly but steadily improving, though still very help- ess, unable to walk or even stand alone, and could not say when he would be able to recross the desert on his return to Cairo. He is receiving every attention and comfort at El Obeid and has for his quarters a very commodious building, well ventilated, con venient andjpleasant. He rides ou t every day in a little donkey cart which he carried with him on the expedition, and which is an object of great curiosity to the natives, who never saw a vehicle before, while hundreds pt men, women and children follow him in his daily trips.- He describes a tree, which he saw during" one of his rides, which is known as the Baobab, the ' singular dimensions of which are very striking and peculiar. It was seventy eet' in circumference, from forty to fifty feet in height, and at a distance resembles a huge cabbage. He received a letter from Gen. Stone, Minister of War aud Chief of the Khedive's staff, and also communica tions from Cols. Purdie and Mason, com manding another expedition which was to act in concert with his, highly compliment ing him for the Zealand indomitable energy he displayed in his determination to remain with and conduct the expedition in despite of the sufferings he was experiencing, only giving up his purpose" when death was actually staring him in the face and it was absolutely impossible for him to proceed further. The best wishes of the numerous friends of Gen. Colston in this city, as well as else where, are with him in the trying ordeal through which he is passing, as well as their earnest hopes that he may be 6oon re stored to health. Xbe Colored People to Have a Fair. The colored people propose to, have a grand fair or exposition in this city on the 7lh, 28th and 29th days of December next. The Board ot Directors oi me in dustrial Fair Association," under whose auspices the exhibition is to take place,. have procured for the purpose a large three- story trick building, with? out-houses and spacious grounds attached. On the open ing day addresses will be delivered by ex- Congressman Robert Elliott, of South Caro lina, O. H. Dockery of this State, and other prominent speakers. Among other at tractions there will be a grand review ;of fire companies, together with a Masonic parade by Lodges from all parts 0& the State, while two bands will be in attend ance to furnish music.: In a circular issued by the Association they say they desire to show tne worm what our colored people can do in the way of farming, mechanism, art, needle-work, cabinet-work, masonry, blacksmithmg, stock-raising, &c. Parties making entries are requested to send their names and artt cles by December 15th, addressed to Jos. C. Hill, Wilmington, N. C. Gold and silver premiums will be awarded, and arrange- mpnts will be made to have the fares on the railroads reduced for the occasion. The Board of Directors are Jos. C Hill, Chairman; Elijah Lane, Wm. J. Kellogg, Jas. W. Telfair, ex officio, iiVandcr Mc- Bride, Jas. P. Green and Chas. E. Cleapor, Secretary. This will be the first Fair ever held in the State by the colored people, and we hope they will receive every encouragement in their laudable purpose. Marine Matters. Capt. John H. Marshall, coast pilot of the steamer ZJrbana, writes to us from Georgetown, S. C, in reference to a report in the Charleston News and Courier of the 21st inst., in which it is stated that the steamer referred to had been found in a disabled condition. He says the circurn stances were as follows: At the time referred tOrthere was a gale of wind blowing-' from the northeast, both anchors being down and the boat riding easily. In attempting to get under waythe steam-pipe collapsed and of course disabled the engine for heavy sea work. The flag was set for a steamer in sight, which proved to be the U. S. steamer Alantkus, Capt Brown, which took the Urbana in tow and onrried her inside Georeetown bar, where she got , up, steam and ran up to George town. :The steamer had a life-boat capable ottiolding thirty persons and a clinker-built boat: capable ? of carrying fifteen more, while there were only thirty persons on hn'oivi oi! tnlVL Cant. M. savs the boat was in fathoms water when taken in tow by the Alardlm, and that any pilot would . oi.o vis wffctlv:.8afe. There . was a heavv sea. it is true, but she could have stood it, and it was only to quiet the fears ya.A'a Mid children that he asKeci for assistance. . :We make this statement in justice to Capt. M., whose family reside in Wilming"--ton, and who think the report in the Charleston paper calculated to cast a reflec tion upon the pilot. 5Ki a "7 i. Broken Pavements.

C, TUESDAY. OCTOBER 2(5. 1875. Tne Compress. , If you wake up at night and hear a gicat grumble and gush and roar, like the snort ing of an uneasy volcano in the .distance, don't get frightened. It is only the exhaust- from the big cotton compress, now running night and day and then scarcely able to keep the staple out of the way of the rail roadmen who bring it, or to turn it over in the reduced shape fast enough to suit the waiting shipmasters. ; We took a stroll up that way yesterday morning, and found such a change from the steady ebb and flow of traffic on the down town streets that it really seemed as f the life and motion of the city bad been concentrated for the occasion within the purlieus of the cotton warehouse and build ings adjacent ; Between the railroad tracks the ground was strewed with cotton bales awaiting delivery or transfer; the depots were filled with it, an army of laborers were rolling it; the train hands were unloading it, the platforms were covered with it, and uoder the iron roof and between the fire walls of the warehouse there did not seem to be much available space for more. But a file of truckmen were trundling it off out of the way, to the press. And the press was opening and shutting its great' hungry- ooking jaws, at the rate of once in a min ute or a minute and a half, and, with a force of tons upon tons urging them to gether, crunching up every lime a bale crunching up a bale of four and' five feet in height with such a tremendous impulse of eagerness that we almost looked to see' the iron teeth meet each other throught it. But cotton in the bale, like cotton ; in the bolt and perhaps in some other forms of doing up, can stand some pressure without hurt, we're told, though, of course, there's a point where pressure can go no further, and this point seems to be reached, with the bale, when it has been reduced from a thick ness of perhaps five feet when unhooped to one of six or eight inches. Then comes the exhaust of steam, the jaws open as the ties are made fast, and as the pressure is re moved of course the bales swell a little, but lemain permanently reduced to one-half or one-third of their former size. All the cost of compression is borne by the ship-owners, as they are paid by weight for carrying cot ton, and it is evidently to. their interest to pay the Compress Company-a small tax and thereby be enabled to stow away twice or thrice the number of bales into a vessel that they otherwise could. As the press yields up its bale, ou comes a throng of laborers again cotton-ties a-clipping, cotton-bales a-rolling; cotton on end, cotton on trucks and going out to the sheds aiid wharves piled up with compress ed cotton, where the ships are a-stowing it and the sailors singing over it and drying their cotton sails up aloft to bear it to the lands where, for the present, all the sail cloth is made, and whence the manufactur ed wraps and traps and trinkets arc brought back to show us how great are the uses of cotton. The Installation. The large auditorium of the First Baptist Church was filled on Sunday morniDg by an assemblage equal to those it has held on former great days in its history, who fol lowed most intently the exhortations and ceremonies incident to the accession of the Rey. James B. Taylor to its pastorate. On the platform with the chosen pastor were the Rev. Messrs. Durham of Golds- horo. Bailev of Raleieh and Taylor of Wake Forest, the latter a brother of the pastor. From information obtained from.a-source that is usually well informed (ancfln the absence of the usual notice from the church authorities) it had been stated that the Rtv Mr. Durham would probably preach He installation sermon, and such was the get eral expectation, but the event proved that this office had in fact been delegated to the Rev. Mr. Bailey, while the pleasure of l.'s tening to Mr. Durham had been reserved for the evening. . - The text was taken from Ephesians iii, 8: " Unto me. who am less than the least of all saints, is this grace given, that I should preach among the Gentiles the UDSearch able riches of Chiist." Beginning with a reminder that the Gos pel had been first preached by angels to Saul, on the way to Damascus, the Rev. gentleman proceeded to speak of the lm pprtance and duties of the pastoral office and the objects to be gained by its cre ation and maintenance. Mr. Bailey's re marks were listened to with great attention throughout .. .. The sermon wa3 followed by the address of welcome to the pastor delivered on be half of the First Baptist Church of' 'Wit mington and 120,000 Baptists in North Carolina, by the Rev. Mr. Durham. . - The exhortation to the people was brief and to the point, showing one great neces sity, to pastoral success to consist in the countenance and assistance of his people, and was given by Rev. Mr. Bailey. After prayer and the hymn "All hail the power of Jesus' name," the congregation dispersed with the benediction by Rev. Chas. E. Tay lor'. A great number of the membership, however, remained to take the hand of their pastor and his lady and give them personal welcome, and. also to make or renew their acquaintance with the minis terial brethren who had come so far to honor the occasion, the pastor and the people. . In the evening a great congregation again assembled at the church to listen to the Rev. Mr. Durham. The attendance was fully. equal to that of the. morning, and the exposition of the Epistolary " It is appoint ed; onto all men once to die, but after death the judgment," was much commented upon afterward. ? ,.' : -:" 1 thus the exercises of the day came quietly tb a close, and we trust it may prove; to ,ho one that pastor and; people may long rer member as marking the commencement of a mutual relation that shall be both pleasant and useful. ! The Opera House. : A very fair audience assembled at the Opera House last night to witness, the first appearance in our city of "Buffalo Bill,". "Texas Jack"and MllcMorlacchi supported by an efficent company. - The petite comedy "Thrice Married" was first put upon the stage , and "was well ren dered and thoroughly appreciated. This was followed by the drama Entitled "Life on the Border," the principal feature of the evening's performance. "Life.on the Border" abounded in thrilling scenes, hairbreadth escapes and striking tableaux,r all of which were rendered with fine effect, winning for the troupe the applause of the audience.. The main features of this drama of course were the introduction of "Buffalo Bill" and "Texas Jack," the "scouts of the plains," and it is but just to say that all that was promised seemed to be accordingly fulfilled. The audience were highly in terested and pleased with the performance. The plot was well sustained and the play. moved along easily. Another performance will be given to night, with change of programme. , mayor's Court. The following cases were disposed of by this tribunal yesterday morning: Charles Stevens, charged with cursing and other disorderly conduct in I the bar room of Herman Woebse, was found guilty and ordered to pay a fine of 10 and costs or work for twenty days on the streets. Henry Williams, charged with the same offence as above, was fined $10 and costs or required to work twenty days on the streets. Jcsu Clark, charged with the larceny of a knife, was ordered to give a justified bond in the sum of $200 for his appearance at the present term of the Superior Court. Herman Woebse, charged with permit- ling disorderly proceedings in his bar-room, was required to pay a fine of $25 and costs. S. A. Norwood, disorderly conduct; case dismissed on the payment of costs. The Italian and Spaniard, heretofore re ferred to as having been found camping out in the vicinity of Taylor and Thirteenth streets, were discharged from custody on condition that they would. leave the city immediately. Au Important Case Decided. By reference to our Washington dis patches of last night it will be seen that the U. jS. Supreme Court has decided the case entitled "Wil mington & Weldon Railroad vs. King, ex-, ecutor." In this case the decision rendered is one affecting large interests in this State and throughout the coantry. We refer to the dispatch for particulars. Range of TUermomeier.
