The peaceful serenity of tbe Sabbath was broken into and our citizens startled from their equilibrium about 6:30 o'clock Sunday evening by the alarm of fire, and upon rushing into the streets the bright glare which met their gaze, apparently in the di- I i rection of j the intersection of Front and Market streets, led many in the sections of the City remote from the river to suppose that the fiend had broken loose immediately in the business centre, which impression, with a southeast wind blowing, setting the flames directly upon all that part of tbe city north of Market street, naturally created in their minds very great alarm, presaging'as it did a conflagration the magnitude of which there could be no attempt to estimate. Soon, however, the different alarms were noticed to" strike the sixth fire district, lo cated on the west side of the river, and it was finally ascertained that the fire bad originated in the cooper shop of Mr. A. Johnson. The steam fire engine Little Giant, being first to arrive at Market dock, was quickly transported to the oppo site side, followed by a hand en gine which the Howard . Company took over in place of their steamer, which, with the Cape Fear steamer, remained on this side "cocked and primed" and ready for service if called upon. In the meantime, while awaiting the arrival of the engines, Mr. E. S. Martin, who was among the first to reach the scene of the fire, organized a force with buckets which effectually kept the flames in Check. The Little Giant and per consorts, the Fifth Ward Bucket Com pany, arrived, however, just in the nick of time, as the flames had got among a quan tity of staves and headings and were rapid ly spreading among the various combus tible material ssurroundingthe cooper shop aud seriously imperiling the distilleries of Mr. Alfred Martin, which were about thirty' feet from the burning building and located between the fire and the ferry buildings, the railroad shops, warehouses, &c. In about 35 minutes from the first sound of the alarm bell tbe Little Giant had a stream on tie fire, instantly checking it in its dangerous approaches towards the distilleries, I and soon it was noised abroad that all danger of a further spread of the flames was over. In the meantime the tops of the build ings in the vicinity of the fire were kept wet with water from a force-pump, with hose attached, on the railroad premises, by the use of buckets, &c, and finally by the engines and bucket company. The sailors from the various vessels on that side of the river rendered most valuable assistance, both before and after the arrival of the en gines, and deserve great credit for what they assisted so materially in accomplishing. Several of the adjacent buildings caught fire, but the -flames were quickly extin guished, while numerous flaming particles. such as shavings, &c., were wafted by the wind and smoke to the east side of tbe river, in the vicinity of tbe New York and Baltimore steamship wharves, requiring careful attention to prevent the fire from being communicated to property in that lo cality, The cooper.shop and a quantity of staves and headings comprised about all the prop erty destroyed, tbe loss of which is estimat ed at about $500 or $600, upon which there was a small insurance. The origin of the fire is a mystery, as Mr, Johnson says be put out all the fires in the building on Saturday, himself, fastening the windows and locking the door, after which time no one could have had ingress to the shop. Not until about 10 o'clock was the last spark of the fire extinguished, up to which lime the roar of the engine could be heard all over the city mayor's Court. The following cases were disposed of yesterday morning: Pompey Hill, charged with attempting to rescue a prisoner Irom the police, was found guilty and ordered to pay a line of $50 and costs, which was afterwards reduced to $25 and costs. Virginia Poisson, charged with fighting Pn jtne Pablic streets, was ordered to pay a fine of $20 and costs or work for thirty days fine of $20 ; on tbe streets. n ' Emanuel Jones, charged with attempting to rescue prisoners from the police, was found guilty and ordered to pay a fine of $50 aod costs, which was afterwards re duced to $25 and costs. Julia Poisson alias Julia Parson, charged with fighting on the public streets, was fined $20 and costs or required to work for thirty das on the streets. Gilbert Telfair, charged with beating his wife, was found guilty and ordered to pay a fine of $50 and costs or work for, thirty days on the streets. . Joe. Chance, charged with disorderly conduct. Case dismissed. Julia Parson, charged with resisting the police, wasordered to pay a fine of $50 and costs or work for thirty days on the streets.

IAJaatract AdrurtiBemcnCi Uken at ororei WILMINGTON, The :blldhod. of t hrlat. Bishop Atkinson preached a remarkable sermon last Sabbath at St. Paul's Episcopal iCjurch, on "The Childhood of the Sa viour." He took for a basis those passages of the sacred Evangelist wherein the life of the God-man from infancy to the period jof His entrance upon .His public work is briefly related, and in the simplest possible manner and with great familiarity with details described the system of duty en forced by the Jews in respect to their chil dren. This system, in its outlines and spirit, he presented for the consideration of Christians, who, he argued, could find in it much that is admirable and much! that would help to elevate tbe morale of church and nation. The sermon was inteusely practical throughout? one fitted, in prescri bing a safe moral regimen, .to the urgent requirements of the time. Light In Ian try Parade. Tuesday being rather an off day with business men, with no important mails and less business of an urgent character coming in, as a general thing, than on other days of the week, it is hoped by tbe friends of the Wilmington Light Infantry that those merchants who have members in their em ploy will make a special effort to spare them for a few hours this afternoon, in order that they may participate in the dress parade of tbe Company, which is appointed for 3 o'clock. The boys will take care not to ask such indulgences often, it is thought the display t this evening maybe made more than ver heretofore woith wit i nessiog, and the ladies, and citizens gener ally should not WithboTd their presence and encouragement. Lot-Owner' Meeting. The annual meeting of tVe lot-owners of Oakdale Cemetery was held last night at the Library room, and organized with Mr. Charles E. French in the chair and Mr. R. J. Jones Secretary. An election for officers for the ensuing term resulted in the choice of the following gentlemen : E. Kidder, President. R. J. Jones, Secretary and Treasurer. George R. French, Wm. A. Wright, Nor wood Giles, Donald JIacRae, W. J. Yopp and James H. Cbadbourn, Directors. The Secretary and Treasurer In bis re port showed the finances to be in a gratify ijg condition. An Old Newspaper. We saw yesterday an old relic of by-gone days, in the shape of a newspaper. I This ancient sheet was entitled the Fayetteville lnUUlgencer, bears date of March 30, 1810, and was printed by Ray Black. It : contains many articles of local and general interest, and, among the latter, the conclu sion of a speech by Hon. John Stanly, then a member of Congress from this State, on the exUtiug state of affairs in this country, at which time the war of 1812 was brewing. 'Among tbe local news is the following marriage notice: "On Tuesday evening last, by the Rev. W. L. Turner, Mr. j Rob ert W. Brown, merchant of WilmingtoD, to Miss Ann Wingate, ef this town." iFlae-nalsfng. The handsome flag presented to the St. George and St. Andrew's Athletic Club by Messis. Brown & Roddick will be raised to the mait-head for the first time on the Club 'grounds to morrow (Wednesday) afternoon, ' at 3 o'clock. The members of the Club are requested to be present. Tbe beautiful pols which tbe flag will adorn was a present to the Club by Mr. R. G. Ross. Orerbeard. ; In their frantic efforts to get over tbe river and squelch the fire-demon, Sunday night, two or three persons plunged into the river and came near being squelched themselves. They came out wet enough, apparently, to put out any reasonable fire, but cool enough, also, to desire a closer connection with one of a milder shape than that which raged so furiously on the oppo site side of the Cape Fear. Base Ball. Mr. Henry T. Bauman.has been appoint ed Captain of the base ball players of St. George and St., Andrew's Athletic! Club, and will be glad to see all those interested in base ball at the club rooms, over Mr. J. C. Mund's drug store, this evening at 8 o'clock, to perfect arrangements for tbe campaign.

Mr. lay lor was on a visit to some mends in Snow II ill township, and in company with others. iiaJ been out on a fox hunt tne day of his sad ueulii. ' Returning in the even ing he and auuther young man agreed to race their horses. It seems that Mr. Tay loi's horse took fright at an ox-cart aud maae a siuiuen side dash between two pine trees. The iumu was so sudden and unex pected that before Mr. Taylor had time to check the horse his body, struck tbe two trees with such Bowerf ul force that it broke bis skull and both shoulders. Tbe uoiortunate man died within an hour after the accident. The horse sustained no injury. So we learn by the Goldsboro Messenger, At a meeting: held in Goldsboro last week a series of resolutions was adopt ed,: from which we take the following: That the said Fayetteville & Goldsboro Rail way Company will connect,' unite, merge or consolidate with the "Fayetteville & Florence Railroad Company," the "Atlantic tjoast railway uompany, the "Atlantic & North Carolina Railroad Company," or such other Tailroad company at Goldsboro, or some point beyond Goldsooro, as may here- alter te agreed upon, on such terms as will make a continuous and consolidated line; that the said Fayetteville & Goldsboro Rail way Company will endorse the bonds or guarantee the payment of the same of the said corporations so connecting and form ng tbe consolidation the said corporations in txm endorsing and guaranteeing! its uonds. A book agent called on a farmer the other day, and was told that the farmer was, too busy to talk with him. "But, said the agent, "your farm work is all done. You have nothing to occupy your lime?" "Yes I have, too!" retorted the farmer; " I've got to plant my foot and raise a book agent." And he did. He raised him about four feet. I MANN. In this cltT.
