The Jewish Synagogue was very ki&JJy tendered to the Union Pres byterian Church of Alexandria, Va., the? being without one temporarily. 'The Earl of Mayfield," a novel, has reached its 7th edition. It was writttn by Thomas P. May, ot New O.- leaus, a union man during the war, a sugar planter now. Judge Wood?, nominated for the Supreme Court Bench, is a mediocre carpet-bagger and not a Georgian.

It thus refers to them in a recent 18- ue: "His sermons which we have presented i i diem must, wc tnirik, have inspired ;uern with admiration for his genius. An other of his vigorous discourses will be :ouad in another part of this week's issue." The Irish people of New York are auxious to do something for their countrymen at home. It is proposed to send a deputation to Washington, with a memorial to Congress, asking that the President be instructed to use his good offices as an arbiter be tween Queen and the Irish people, in 'order to secure the latter their rights and to save the country from blood shed and revolution. It is thought the House Military Committee will report no bill to pension Grant. He is said to have an income of $7,000. The old man ought to be able to live on that. The State's special says: "Congressman McCook's bill providing a place for him on the retired list of the army with the rank and pay of General is ia ihe bands of a sub-committee, who are instructed to consider and report to the full Military Committee. McCook of New York, Bragg of Wisconsin, and Sparks of Illinois, compose the sub-committee, and 'jo'.h Bragg and Sparks, pretty stubborn men, are opoosed to tbe bill." When Fanny Davenport visited Wilmington two years ago the Stab did not approve of her Rosalind in such terms as to please her. On her last visit 6he appeared in a poor, thin play, but we will do her the justice to say that although her role did not offJ r u -v.u b prujjer Hcupe uc uramatic ability, yet she gave a very spirited, clever, enjoyable comedy performance. We concede her artis tic qualities and have a higher appre ciation than ever after seeing how roach she could make out of a charac ter that has but little in it reallv. Miss Anna Dickinson is probably as j'oor a playwright as she is an c tress. 1HE VOL. XXVII. NO, 73. Richmond, Va., eojoyed a some what novel entertainment on Tues day last.

The State says: "In the building of large edifices, and especially those with the Gothic roof, one or me most difficult tasks connected with 1; is the elevation and the Dlacine of the large rafters in position. After this under taking has been completed it is often tbe custom in European countries, and espe cially in Uermany, for tbe architect, build er, contractor, master workman and others interested in the erection of tbe edifice to gather together upon a small platform placed over the roof of tbe building over one of tbe rafters and celebrate their suc cess by the ceremony known as "Baretae- oe, or raising the rafter, The New York dry goods market is thus summarized in a letter of the 14th inst.: "Cotton goods continue to move freely on account of old orderB, but the current demand is light. Prints are quiet aod steady. White goods, piques and quilts, are in tair demand. Heavy olotuing woollens sluggish. Spring cassimerea ana worsted coatings in moderate request.

None but "beautiful and accom plished" brides are ever heard of. Raleigh Star: We are requested to stale that the report started recently, in this city, to tbe effect that a certain young lady had fallen heir to a large English for tune is entirely unfounded. It was started by the young lady herself simply as a j.ke. Raleigh Visitor: The United States Court which has been in session in this city for over two weeks, adjourned on yesterday. .Nathan Barefoot, Sheriff of Sampson county, brought Pink Gordon, colored, to thu penitentiary yesterday. He was 82nlenced for two years for larceny. Oxford lorchlight: We hear from a reliable source that we shall have a telegraph office in Oxford at an early day Parties have been prospecting with a view to going to work at once. With a railroad and a telegraph line we have nothing to fear, as to the future of Oxford. Durham Plant: The numerous friends of Col. C. E.

In North Carolina we keep up the "village" for generation after generation, until the people accept it as a fixed fact that they are too poor, aBd backwoodsy to have street lamps, fire engines, side-walks, gas, a pub lic nromeoade. a town hall, a library, hand some schools, or any city-like style. And we shall never flourish until we get rid oi these ideas. Richmond Christian Advocate: Salem dates far back into the eighteenth century. A gravestone is marked 1756. It is noted for its famous school for girls. Between six and seven thousand have been taught there. Its cloth factory has a wiae reputation. Salem is oia ana wesuny. Winston is young and thrifty. Methodism, in its old and noble form, flourishes in that Conference. The men talk like the itinerants read of in days of Asbury and McKendree. It was a means of grace to consort with them. The devout women, not a few, came aod encouraged the laborers by their interest in the pro ceedings. I do not wonder that Duncan always held that tbe brethren in the old North State were the best type of Wes- leyans in tbe South. It is simply an abuse oi a word tn call & small town a city. In England a certain place of 60,000 Inhabitants is always flpoken 0f as a town. The .tendency to aDu e woros in tn terrible. We have seen papers gravely referring to a small village of four or five hundred inhabitants as a city. We heard some Englishmen eight or nine years ago, after making a survey of Jttaleigb, stand in tbe Yarborough House aod say, "We heard it was a city, when lo! it is but a wilderness." That was tbe way it impress ed men who bad bean accustomed to cities. We propose to call a village Dy its proper name and a city by its proper name, but we are opposed to destroying nseful words in our language. What need of such words Morn WILMINGTON, N. C FRIDAY.

Two routes are under consideration; one to connect at or near Enfield, a distance of 14 or 15 miles; the other at or near Halifax, 15 or 18 miles. No survey has been made, but ac complished railroad men, who have pro nounced either route very favorable, have no streams of consequence to cross and re quiring only about $1,000 per milo from grading anc cross-ties. The route will de pend much upon the subscriptions made at the competing points Halifax and En field. The Directors of the W. & W. Rail road Company are willing t build to either place and furnish the iron and rolling stock. Raleigh News- Observer : The capitol is being turned into a coal and wood house.

A meeting was held at the Court House last night of persons interested in the I "'Wout UTartnt On oat inn " Tf was called I . .. .... the opponents of the new markets, for the purpose of making some organized oppo sition; but there were many friends and supportera of the New Market Company present. Mr. W. J. Mott called the meeting to order and stated that it was the purpose of citizens opposed to the lease of the new markets to the city to test the legality of the contract entered into. On his motion, Col. Roger Moore was called to the chair and Mr. R. F. Eyden requested to act as secretary. On motion, a committee of five was ap pointed by the chairman to solicit sub- scriptions for the purpose of employing counsel to test the matter in the courts. The chair appointed as this committee Messts. Owen Fennell, Jr., Wm. Goodman, W. J. Mott, A. C. Wessell and James Willson. Oa motion, the chairman was added to the committee. On motion, a committee consisting of Messrs. Eyden, Mott and Goodman was appointed to make arrangements for and call a meeting of citizens at tbe old Mar ket House this evening, at 8 o'clock, and to invite speakers, etc. Col. Moore addressed the meeting briefly, and expressed himself as strongly opposed to the action taken by tbe Board of Alder men that the property was burdened with mortgages and a deed of trust for which the tax-payers might eventually become liable. There being no other business before the meeting it was declared adjourned. ANOTHER MEETING . Immediately upon the adjournment, and before the crowd had dispersed, Mr. W- P. Oldham called another meeting a "citizens meeting" and called Mr. H. A. Burr to the chair, while Mr. A. Gilbert was requested to act-as secretary. Mr. Wm. Larkios was invited to make an explanation as to facts concerning the lease of the new markets by the Board of Aldermen. He stated that the chairman of the previous meeting 'Jol. Moore was mistaken in his statements; that the com. pany proposed to deed to tbe city the new markets free of mortgages, deeds of trust or other encumbrances, which were to be annulled and cancelled immediately. Col- Moore gave his authority for his statements; he said he was not opposed to the acquisition by the city of the new markets, but was opposed to the manner in which the matter was covertly rushed through by the Board of Aldermen with out proper legal investigation an 1 without consultation with the Board of Audit and Finance. Mr. Sol. Bear also Bpoke, his remarks being of the same tenor. Alderman Foster gave a detailed state ment of the New Market question; he said the property was to be deeded to the city in fee simple free of all encumbrance. Mr. W. P. Oldham submitted the follow ing resolution : WnEREAy, A meeting of the citizens of Wilmington having been called to give ihair.nnmml nr A iaaniirnvnl of the course their approval or Uisapprovai of the Board of Aldermen in accepting tbe gift of the Wilmington Market Company to the City of Wilmington, of real estate and the buildings thereon, amounting in excess of the sum of $40,000,and .thejeity giving the said market company certain privileges to reimburse them in part; . Resolved. That this meeting do approve or the action of the said Board of Aldermen, and if it is deemed necessary, we do earn estly request the Board of Audit to approve the same, as we deem it of the greatest im portance to the city to secure tbe said mar ket buildings on tbe terms offered. The resolution was seconded and put to a vote, when tbe chair decided that it was adopted. Col. Moore called for a division of the house, but the meeting adjourned without further action. - - o Superior court An Important Case. Tbe attention of the Superior Court ever since Thursday morning of last week has been taken up in the consideration of an important case, being a suit by one of the heirs of Ronald McDougald for partition of certain real estate that tbe said McDougald left at his decease. It seems that he left a will, and one of the important questions, among the many which came beforo the Court, was whether or not, under the con struction of that will, he devised to his wife an estate for life or an estate in fee. And again, T. C. McDougald, one of the heirs at law, made a mortgage of his in terest in the estate during his mother's life, aod the question is whether tbe mortgage debt is barred by lapse of time. There were many wise points of law involved and much legal acumen has been expended in the various stages of the case. The case, as we stated, was commenced on Thursday morning of last week; the evidence closed on Tuesday last, at the dinner hour, and Col D. K.McRae, for the plaintiff, consumed the evening with his argument, Major D. J. Devane, for tbe des fendant, the ensuing (Wednesday) morn ing, and Marsden Bellamy, Esq., for the defendant, the afternoon and part of Thursday morning; Judge Russell consu ming the remainder of the day in the closing argument for the plaintiff. "I have been using Tutt's Pills for Dys pepsia, and find them tbe best remedy I ever tried. Up to that time everything I ate disagreed with me.

The Club has been in existence for more than thirty years, and although but one of the original members remains, it is kept up to its original standard of excellence, and maintains its position in the front rank of musical organizations. The list of names embraces those of widely known artists, and tbe programme, we are assured, will be rendered in a stylo to delight the most exacting of musicians. Ths Norfolk Vir ginian, alluding to the appearance of the Club in that city, says Miss Marie Nellinj is a charming vocalist, and met with a most flattering reception at the hands of the au dience; and that paper commends tbe Quintette, wherever it may appear, as tho roughly capable of giving an entertainment which is both refining and well worthy of patronage.
