The Cblels of the Two Armies. The leaders and commanders of the two formidable armies about to come in conflict on the banks of the Danube are very unlike each 'other. Abdul-Kenm Pasha is an unassuming man, over seventy years of age, with no pretentions to a brilliant pedigree, bat with a solid reputation as aa ex cellent soldier. The Grand Dule Nicholas is fine looking, tall, forty six years old, a brother of the Czar, as haughty a prince as the house of Romanoff has ever produced, and a soldier as devoid of a military history as any review and parade guardsman. Abdul-Kerim Pasha is the actual commander-in-chief of his army. The Grand Duke Nicholas is a mere'figare head, guided and commanded by his chief! of staff, General Nepokoyt ehizky, the Moltke of Russia. Spirits Turpentine. No whiskey is sold at Korners ville.

Eh I Winston Sentinel : There are some articles you can always buy in stores, with all of the last year's fly speck thrown in. These stores don't advertise. Sixteen boxes of crooked tobac co, from factory No. 86, fifth district of North Carolina, were seized in Newbern, Tuesday, according to the 2fut Shell. Winston Sentinel : Certificates of deposit upon the Salem SaviDgs Bank have brought over 50 cents on the dollar, when put up at auction. Things are getting better. Wilson Advancer. There was a rat-ification meeing in our office last night, and notwithstanding one of the resolutions was very flowery, we predict it will end in"' a terrible cat-astrophe. Winston Sentinel: An egineer ing party, working through one of our counties bordering on the South Carolina line, cut down a monster chestnut tree tbat measured 10 feet 3 inches across the stump. Winston Sentinel: We .learn that two wagons and one team, and thirty five boxes of tobacco, belonging to Tyler smith, of Surry county, have been seized in South Carolina for violation of revenue laws. Tarboro Southerner: S. L. Tlart, Jr., and Dr. R. J. Porter caught a rock while pulling the seine in Powell's seine hole, on Tuesday, weighing 52 pounds. Largest one ever known to be caught in Tar river. -- Winston Sentinel: Dr. H. T. Bahnson had a very delicate and painful operation performed upon his arm by one of the greatest surgeons in Philadelphia Dr. Agnew and at last accounts wns gc J, ting on favorably. The Junior of tho Wilson Ad vance Deals in such roseate rhetoric as the following: "A blush is nature's signal at the least infringement upon modesty, and it never mantles a woman s cheek without showing something of the angel still." Charlotte Observer: The Hornet Fire Company put their street sprinkler on the streets yesterday, and gave the citizens an opportunity of seeing what it could do. It is a far more comely machine than the old historic one, and does its work well. The Southerner intimates that Wake county has a title by prescription to officers. We have heard that remark made a few scores of times before. Some counties abound in patriotic men who are anxious to serve their country. Salisbury Examiner: The trial of Bill Locke, colored, for the murder of Mr. Pleasant Barringer, in this county, last spring, came off before Judge Kerr, at Lexington, this week. He was convicted and sentenced to be hanged on the 25lh of May next. New North State : We noticed several improvements going up in the town of Lexington, among which is a very fine storehouse by John H. Finch, Register of Deeds. Running a store, and keeping the Poor House, in addition to the fees of Re' gister, must pay. Winston Sentinel : Petitions are being circulated hrough the western part of the State for signatures asking the Presi dent to grant a pardon to all persons in dicted for violations of the revenue laws, as was done by Grant in the Northwestern Georgia cases. The News says of the recusant Granville Commissioners: "At last ac counts the Commissioners were firm in their purpose not to count the vote, saying that they would go to jail first. Another report is that they have absconded, but this statement is not well authenticated." Durham Tobacco Plant: Mr. John Rigsuee tells us of a very remarkable cat that he owns. Some weeks since the cat gave birth to three kittens. They lived and did well, and just eighteen days from the birth of the three kittens she gave birth to another kitten, and that is living and do ing well. A sad case truly. That of the young man who writes the prose-poetry for the Adoanee. Just hear him again and be amazed: "A story is going the rounds about a girl dying with tight lacing. These corsets should be done away with, Jand if the girls can't love without being squeezed, men can be found who would sacrifice themselves." Wilson Advance : The dog law went into effect on yesterday, and hereafter any dog found upon the streets without being muzzled will be sure to pay the death penalty. The ordinance meets the appro bation of our citizens, and this action of our worthy mayor and his efficient commis sioners will be another star in their crown of merit. j Southerner; A Tarboro girl hung over the front gate sud listened to the lascivious lute at twilight sounding 'round the corner. "Sure that's my William Hen ry and those sweet sounds are intended for me." "Jocks," ejaculated her little bro ther, "it's Bill Glen, with thaf old sow wood whistle, and if he don't dry up in a minute l'U go 'round and bus' his craft." The Raleigh Observer, speak ing of Granville Court, now in session, says: "When we left the court house yesterday Sheriff Moore, the man who is to be count ed in for Sheriff, was being tried on a bench warrant for perjury, in having made false affidavits in regard to the imbroglio before Judge Buxton at Louisburg. There was a large array of counsel on each side and the ease promised to be one of unusual interest. Winston Sentinel: Less than a year ago the First National Bank of Win ston commenced business with a capital stock of 255.000. In December last it an- 1 pounced a dividend of 10 per cent, on Jls Morning WILMINGTON, capital stock, and to-day it has a paid op capital of $100.000,and assets amounting to $216,548 66. This speaks well for the financial skill and management of this in stitution. Southerner : That the farmers of Edgecombe are the hardest, most intel ligent workers, in an agricultural way, is our proud boast. This spring we visited a farmer who ran seventeen plows. On this farm were thirty compost heaps to the plow, and 250 loads of dirt to the heap; 7,500 loads of dirt on the cotton land. This is not an unusual average. Ought she to wear the belt as the banner cotton county ? - Southerner : The Observer local boasts of a cat that sets on eggs like a hen. We knew a man who tried the experiment opce, but not altogether like a hen. He had 'em in his hind coat pocket, carrying em to his wife for breakfast. When he reached home and reported the fact, he re gretted his birth. But to our story. Edge combe has a drake of the Muscovy type that lays eggs. It is certainly a fact, and we will give names and dates when we get the proper affidavits. A writer in the Newbern Nut Shell says: "Miss Manly's genius is for trag edy. She has a noble contralto voice, is full of passion and impulse, has an at tractive person, and if she will condescend to the tedious and laborious culture of her art, will yet thrill the grandest audiences on the continent. Mr. Haywood belongs to the comic family, must study the tri umphs of the immortal Barton, and will only waste his time on tragedy." We have a steam press but don't run itthatway. Tarboro Southerner. That reminds us of what Gov. Vance said to Mr. Weldon Edwards at Washington. Vance had been speaking about an hour and a quarter, and began to get a little faint and dry. The venerable and courtly old gen tleman, then some seventy-five years of age, stepped up and with a trembling hand of fered Vance a drink of water. The latter turned, and with a peculiarly quizzical ex pression, said, "No, I thank you, Mr. Ed wards; my mill ain't a water mill; it is a steam mill." Raleigh News : The two recu sant Granville commissioners, Cole and Jones, have absconded sure enough. A gentleman who arrived in this city yester day afternoon from Oxford, reports that Judge Buxton has received a letter from Jones, since his departure, dated at Clarks ville, Va,, in which he said that he was firm in his purpose not to count the vote of Henderson "or any other man." He stated further that be was on his way to Texas, where he intended to settle, having enough money to buy him a home there. He an nounced to His Honor in this letter his pur pose to abandon politics altogether, and not have anything to do with counting votes hereafter, one way or another. Moore, who was on trial Tuursday for perjury, was ac quitted. X .EI JED OITY. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. MUNSON & CO- Clothiog. . - . - - Sunday-School Excursion. Geo. Myers Can apples, &c.

The interments in Pine For rest (colored) Cemetery during the past week numbered three, of which one was an adult and two were children. An effort is being made by our merchants to get the street sprinkler into operation. Jt is badly needed during such dry, dusty weather as we have had for the past two or three days. Called Off.

Loudenslagcr, W. M. of Nep tune Lodge A. F. & A. M., No. 75, of Mauricetown,New!Jersey,under date of the 26th inst., writes to Mr. C. M. VanOrsdell, W. M. of St. John's Lodge No. 1, in this city, as follows: "Our worthy brother, Capt. Wm. Corsen, has been wrecked off your sea coast, and we fear he is forever lost. It is a very sad affair. He leaves a widow with four little children. He was much respected by all who knew him. He was an upright man and Mason. We ask as a' great favor, if you will interest yourself in our behalf and ascertain all the particulars. He sailed the schooner Chas. M Elmer, and if his body should be found please place it in safe de posit and communicate with me immediate ly." A photograph of the lamented Captain Corsen accompanies this letter, by which it is probable the body can be identified if found. The deceased wore a lung pro tector, quilted in diamonds, which may also lead to his identification. There seems to be no doubt that all on board of the ill fated vessel perished, as the body of a drowned sailor has already been found on the beach which was doubtless that of C. H. Thompson, one of the crew of the G. E. Elmer. Not Sustained. Mr. M. W. Hilburn, of Brunswick, had a hearing before United States Commissioner Cassidey, yesterday, on the charge of retail ing spirituous liquors without having the necessary license. There was no evidence produced by the prosecution to sustain the charge, and the case against Mr. Hilburn was therefore dismissed. . Even the witnesses introduced by the prosecution testified to Mr. Hilburn's uni form good character, and to the fact that they had never heard of his seliing liquor under any circumstances. Mr. Hilburn thinks the prosecution was based on ma 1 ice, and intimates that the originator may find himself a defendent in a case that may give him a good deal of trouble. The Pilot Fund. Contributions for the destitute families of the lost pilots come in rather slowly, but we are satisfied that a good start is all that is needed to secure a handsome sum in the aggregate. We hope the good people of Wilmington will respond liberally to this pressing call. We are assured that the ne cessities of some of the families are very great, and this fact ought to be sufficient to arouse the sympathies and secure the -material aid of all who are.ablf n contrib ute. Messrs. E. Kidder & Sons made a handsome subscription yesterday, and we trust mitny others will do likewise. San day School Kx.cn ralon. The excursion season will be opened on Tuesday, the first of May, by an excursion to Smithville, on the steamer Waoeamaw, for the benefit of the Sunday School of the Ffth Street M. E. Church.

A Specimen of Roman Workman hip. Capt. Fitzgerald, of the police force, re ceived from Bristol, R. I., a few days since, as a present to his daughter, a very hand some work-box, made in Rome, Italy. It is constructed of very fine wood, highly polished, manufactured insectionsof scroll work and inlaid with fancy pictures. It came from a relative of the family and will doubtless be highly prized. Rev. Ed. R. M. Browne.

Merrill, of Brunswick county, was arraigned before Uqited States Com missioner VanAmringe, yesterday, in two cases of violation of the revenue laws. In one case the defendant was discharged and in the other he was required to give bond in the sum of $200 for his appearance at the next term of the U. S. District Court. Superior Court. Jn this Court, yesterday, in the case of Samuel Morgan et al. vs. the Bank of New Hanover and Adrian & Vollers, the latter being the real parties defendant in interest, all the issues were found in favor of the defendants. The amount involved is about $10,000. This waa the only case tried. Body Found. A dispatch was received at the Signal Station yesterday afternoon to the effect that the body of Thomas Grissom, one of the pilots of the lost pilot boat Mary K. Sprunt, had just been carried in at Smith ville by the Bald Head pilot boat, having been -found about nice miles south of the bar. Star. A Warrant again st Taylor.the Forger, on the Charge of Stealing a Hone and Buggy. Sheriff Manning has received a warrant against Wm. Taylor, now in jail on a charge of forgery under the name of Wm. M. Taylor alias Robert M. Walker, on the charge of stealing a horse and buggy from Messrs. Hunter & Farrow, of that place, some mention of which has already been made in this paper. In a letter accom panying the warrant Messrs. Hunter & Far row say Taylor hired a horse and buggy from them some time in February or March. He sold the buggy in that county and left with the horse, but they subsequently re covered the animal in Chester, S. C. If he gives bail on the charge of forgery against him here the Sheriff is instructed to hold him on the wrrrant, telegraph them, and theywill send for him immediately. He was raised in Mecklenburg county, but has been in Arkansas for some years, and the description Messrs. Hunter & Farrow give of their man leaves no room to doubt that he is identical with Taylor alias Walker, now in our county jail. A Woman Charged with making Way with her Children. A colored woman by the name of Lena Shaw, living on Sixth, between Nixon and Swann streets, who is reported to have gi ven birth to triplets on Thursday night last, is charged, with making way with her children and secretly burying them. Wash ington Shaw, the husband of the woman, has been arrested on a warrant issued by Justice VanAmringe, in accordance with information lodged with him, and is now in jail, in default of a bond in the sum of $300 for his appearance to-morrow morn ing at 10 o'clock. Whbn the information was first received by Justice VanAmringe, and he had taken steps to investigate the matter, Washington Shaw, who was first approached on the subject, acknowledged the fact of the birth of the children. The officer then went to see the woman, and upon questioning her she denied that any children had been horn to her, and subsequently Washington Shaw also contradicted his previous statement and stoutly contended that his wife had not given birth to the children. It is claimed that the contrary can be proven, but up to yesterday afternoon no new developments had been made and the spot of burial had not been discovered. Those who have charge of the case are confident that foul play has been exercised. Thermometer Keco -a. The following will show the state of the thermometer, at the stations mentioned, at 4.85 yesterday evening, Washington mean time, as ascertained from the daily bulletin issued from. the Signal Office in this city: Augusta, 75 Charleston, .69 Corsicana 65 Galveston, 68 Indianola, 67 Jacksonville 68 Key West........ 82 Mobile 78 Montgomery, 79 New Orleans 75 Norfolk 77 PuntaRassa, 80 Savannah, 68 St. Marks, 65 Wilmington, 71 A severe gale of wind prevailed yesterday afternoon, and a perfect ava lanche of dust was swept through the streets.
