Early risers report oonaiderable
frost and ice in the city and vicinity yes
terday morning. This 00 the 15th of April,
the thirty-second anniversary of the great
snow storm in 1849, might be suggestive of
a somewhat remarkable coincidence, but
for the fact that winter has lingered so long
I in the lap of spring this year that what
I were formerly considered strange nappen-
ings in the weather line have ceased to be
classed as remarkable. r

Gentlemen: I arrived in the city last I
nignt alter n aosence or more man a wees, 1
and found your very kind letter awaiting
me. This will account lor tne long delay
of my answer. I wish it were possible for
me to accept an Invitation, so courteously
extended, and so grateful to me in its
terms and spirit. But 1 cannot make an
engagement to be with yon at an early day,
being unable to foresee with any certainty
that I can keep it. I have never received
anght but kindness from the entire people
ot Pender county, and I am deeply sensi-I
bleoithia renewed evidence of their re
gard. It is always, pleasant to hare the
approval of one's own conscience; it is still
more pleasant when to that to added the
