Suggestion to the Kaleigh Evening
Visitor: Use more headings to
your local news. Dou't put $o many
paragraphs under the head of "City
Visits." If this suggestion is adopted
the Visitor will be more generally
re.nl. It is an excellent local paper.
Peter Delmonico was the first of
the name to have a restaurant in Now
York. There was another brother
and a nephew in the business. Io
1833 Lorenzo, who has just died, be
came a clerk under them. In 1842
he became a partner of his uncle Pe
ter, and six years later bought him
cut. It was Lorenzo who gave the
restaurant a world-wide fame.
The New York Sun goes for tbe
finding of the coroner's jury in the
Cramer case, and says it rendered "a
senseless verdict." It says :
"There certainly appears to be
strong ground for suspicion that
James Malley, Jr., possesses more
knowledge of Miss Cramer's death
than he has yet disclosed; but we
have seen no evidence tbat he had
any hand in it, or any reason to wish
her death."
There is another prominent Repub.
lican who can not see tbe wisdom or
honesty of 1 using with factions whose
principles be opposes just to gain a
victory over the Democrats. We
refer to Judge R. J. Alcorn, of Mis
sissippi. Like Gen. Wickham, he will
not form a disreputable alliance. In
the next election he will support the
Democratic candidate for Governor,
Gen. Lowry.
Some of the Northern papers take
the position tbat Jennie Cramer took
her own life by poison. They do not
credit the theory tbat James Malley
destroyed her. They say he had no
motive. Jennie had been reared
badly, and she was pretty, vain, fool
ish and fond of attention from the
men. Bat why should she take faer
own life? A girl of her sort would
hardly destroy herself. So a motive
is lacking. There is no proof to
show tbat James Malley murdered
her.

$2.50 for an assault on Wm. Robinson, tbe
assault being occasioned by language used
by Robinson concerning a statement which

by tbe mayor for being drunk and down,
when the correct statement should have
been tbat Robmson was drunk and disor

Goldsboro Messenger: The old

W. & W. Road, and find that While Some I
of tbe higher classes, such as dry goods,
have been slightly increased, which we re
gret, there is at tbe same time a perceptible
reduction in rates on cotton, bagging, ties,
coal, ice, bulk meats, flour.coflee, sugar and
necessaries of life generally, more than off
setting the increase on tbe higher classes.

tbe great Grimaldi as clown, constitutes a

FORTUNE'S FAVORS TO AN IRISH LAD.
The wheel of fortune turned most favorably for a
poor lnsn laa, James u uonaan, wno came to Phi
ladelphia two years ago in search of a fortune. He
had seen the advertisement of The Louisiana State
Lottery In the newspapers, and the thought occur
red to him that he had better give it a trial. Accor
dingly, on the 6th of July, he sent oneUollar te M.
A. Dauphin, No. 313 Broadway, New York city, for
the drawing of the 13th instant. In a few days he
received the ticket No. 33,547. He received a tele
gram at No. 88 N. Delaware avenue, where he is a
barkeeper, that the ticket had drawn $5,000. and,
as he held half ef it, that he was entitled to $2,600.
Such a pile of money was indeed a fortune to him.
He obtained It this week. Philadelphia Mercury,
