Eight cords of wood, about twenty dozen of eggs and tbe effects of the crew consti tuted the loss, in addition to the necessary damage to tbe boat Capt.

OPERA BOUSE. Repetition ot ihel Concert ana Ope retta. The repetition of tbe concert and operetta drew another large audience to the. Opera House .last night and pleased everybody even more than on tbe first night, iauch a thing was possible. Iajhe hurry of notice- ing the last performance we faiiePi allude to the charming appearance of the Brides maids and the altogether unique and ludi crous "get up" of the Jurymen. Tbe young ladies wbo acted aa Bridesmaids were cer tainly a conspicuously beautiful feature of the occasion and were admired accordingly. As for the jury well it was in all respects typical, and to even look at them.larrayed its they were so ludirously, was enough to make one laugh immoderately. Mrs. M. P. Taylor presided at the piano during the entire performance and as here tofore, gave the greatest satisfaction both to spectator and performer. The great success attending this, the ini tial performancegof Comic Opera, by our amateur musicians, has been so great that we are led to hope that it will soon be fol lowed by attempts of even a more ambi- tloiis character. We are much indebted to Mrs. J. W Cameron, under whose direction tbe enter tainment was produced, for originating the idea and so industriously laboring to make it a final success, and we trust that she will ere long give us another entertainment of tbe same kind. A Pleasant Affair. A number of the friends of Maj. Chas M. Stedman tendered him a complimentary supper at the City Hall last evening, the occasion being his birthday, and a very enjoyable eveniog was spent by all present During the eveniog Mr. John J.. Fowler piesented Maj. Stedman wilh a beautiful gold headed cane, tbe gift of some of his many friends, and in so doing made quite a graceful and appropriate speech. Nu merous toasts were proposed, and speeches in response were made by gentlemen in a befitting and happy manner. The affair was a most pleasant one in every way and warmly attested the high regard and sin cere affection felt for the gentleman by bis friends. It is probably needless to add that tbe supper was done full justice to and that the iquids brought forth were disposed of in proper style. Abe compliment was one that the recipient can but feel proud of, and we do not doubt heartily appreciates, as he assuredly should. Tbe Hoar Qaeetlon. Mr. R. McMillan, of Lumberton, after alluding to a statement that Ricnard Cot ton. Esq., of Chatham county, killed a bog two years old, weighing 540 pounds, claim- jog it to be tbe largest hog in the county, writes that Mr. Irviu Jenkins, of Lumberi too, killed one oo Dec 30th, 23 months and 15 days old, that weighed 554 pounds. We also learn from a private letter that Mr. G. W. Elkins, residing near Clarkton, Columbus county, killed nine bogs, which bad been taken up from a swamp and fed three weeks, and tbey aggregated in weight 2,587 pounds. The fact is, after recording the weight of tbe hog recently that turned tbe scales at ,412 pounds, we feel like putting anything in that line under six or eight hundred pounds in the category of pigs. aa kMiwABHvaaww ralakva linn . , The C- M. Stedman Fire Co. No. 1, had .their anniversary celebration and supper last night at their hall. A nunjber of in vited guests were present and the festivi ties were kept up until a late hour.

Stedman; believing as we do that he-is)ne well worthy of the name of a worthy citizen In every sense of the word as one who never turns bis back upon the poor and needy of the community. Lively Tianee. Things were lively about the City Hall building last night. In tbe Opera House Ibe 0d Folkes' Concert was io operation; in the City Hall proper a masquerade ska ting carnival was io full blast; in the Mayor's office the banquet to Maj.
