XXIX.-NO. 35. The great Italian actor, Rossi, has had a very successful season jn Bos ton. He is a very great actor the critics all admit, and is not equalled by any living player save his great countryman Salvini. He is playing in New York at present at Booth's Theatre. He appeared first as Othello. The New York correspondent of the Philadelphia Ledger says of his per formance: "The predisposition to measure himbv AT CI 1 a J J uie oat vim suwuaru was conspicuous in every scene, but is safe to say that the com parison in no single instance placed him at a disadvantage or dimmed the lustre of his high reputation. The speech before the oenate. always a crucial test, captivated the spectators by its' tenderness and unaf fected simplicity. In the succeeding scenes his gestures are full of poetrv. and his in tonations marvelously musical. In his management of the, stage business there were some noteworthy deviations from the n i . , . ... . urinous ox nis illustrious preaecessor. We have given some extracts from the Washington Posfs raking criti cisms npon Keeners playing. He is now in Baltimore, and the Gazette treats him to another kind of criti cism. We give an extract from the notice of his Richard III.: "His performance was an excellent one throughout, marked with originality, char acter and force. It recalls to mind the elder Booth's personation of this great role. In the scene with Lady Anne, in that with Buckingham and the civic authorities of London, and in the battle and death strug gle with which the tragedy closes he dis played versatility and a just comprehension of the subtleties of the character he was called upon to depict, and was the brave. cruel and defiant king even to the last The JS . 1 " 1 1 ... . .. nnai scene was viviu ana scriKing mine ex treme, and was perhaps the fullest evidence of Mr. Keene s powers as a tragedian." "A most intelligent and well-in formed citizen of Boston" writes to the Richmond Dispatc?i concerning the roughs of the Ninth Massachu setts regiment, in part as follows : "I venture to say that-not one good citizen was at all surprised when it was learned tnat tne regiment was in disgrace. Nothing .better was expected. Now, the people of this State are thoroughly dis gusted with the organization, and regret exceedingly tnat the disgrace should be charged to the whole commonwealth when it belongs to a few rowdies who are not capable of upholding their own honor, and much less the honor of Massachusetts people." A "crank," a powerfully built man, paid a visit to the White House, hav ing a seven-shooter. He was very anxious togee the President. He was as crazy as a bed-bug after a big spree. It took1 a hard struggle to overpower him. He had the follow ing letter: "John Wolina You are hcrebv informed that Dr. John NoeUing is lawfully elected rresident of tne United states, and occu pies the White House every day. "Almighty Gop, "Communicated by the Holy Spirit." We go in for big crops of cotton, and we sell it at a big price, but it takes all and more than it brings to buy our supplies for raising the next crop.

Representative Clark, of Missouri, who is seeking to obtain a divorce from the woman he married in Wash ington some years ago, charges that she persecutes his children by his first wife, is of most violent temper, and that she goes to saloons with other men and drinks with them to excess, eats opium and makes unseemly ex posures of her person. Poor fellow! Major John R. Popham is in Wash ington, and he thinks Daniel will carry Virginia by from 9,000 to 10, 000 majority. He tells the Past : "Daniel's reception throughout Virginia reminded him of the glorious campaign in North Carolina when Vance was elected Governor; that in the big towns and in the little towns alike Major Daniel's reception was enthusiastic beyond measure."

He will probably give us a change from the "Phoenix." If he will visit Wilmington and play one night, repeating "Phoenix, he will have a crowd ed house. Tell him. Stak.1 Raleigh News- Observer : Mr. Francis Lampson, a well-known citizen of this city, who has for some yean been a sufferer from disease, died yesterday. He was a jeweler by trade, and was in busi ness here many years. There was a big row and fight at the depot last night among hack-drivers, in which whips and clubs were freely used, and several were hurt. Three negroes were arrested by the police and taken to the guard house. In all six drivers of the two livery stables were in the row, which caused great excitement. Governor Jarvis has ordered special terms of superior court lor the Iollowmg coun ties: Hertford county, December 2, Judge Graves; Northampton, January 9, Judge Graves; Davidson, January 9, Judge Sey mour; Mecklenburg, January 9, Judge not chosen. Early yesterday morning a heavy ram set in, which soon flooded the ground and filled the gutters. There was sharp lightning, very sharp, in fact, and the thunder was frightfully loud. At 7:30 o'clock in the morning there was a blinding flash, followed by a deafening report. A gentleman who was conversing oy means of a telephone was nearly knocked down by the shocfc, and a young man at ot. John s Roman Catholic church was made partially blind and deaf for three hours. The rain continued with alight intermissions until afternoon. The total rainfall was some 2 inches. We are pleased to understand that the third annual fair of the colored people, which opens here to-day, shows a great advance on those of previous years. The secretary, John H. Williamson, a col ored man, who is the editor of the Banner, informs us that the entries are much more numerous and finer than formerly, and that the fair has drawn to its support many of the most intelligent and prosperous of his race. A very considerable number of fine cattle are in the stalls, some coming more than a hundred miles, from Edgecombe county. Franklin, Granville and Durham counties, as well as Wake, are well represented. Greensboro Patriot: There is talk of a cotton factory in Kernersville. Henry M. Harrison, a prominent citizen of Rockingham county, is dead. The oociety oi Friends will hold their yearly meeting at New Garden, near this place, commencing November 2. A number of noted ministers from New England and the Western States are expected. Roberts & Hines are erecting a large brick hotel at the Mount Airy White Sulphur Springs, which will be opened for the reception of visitors next season. Old Deny, the veteran drayman of this place, has suddenly discovered that he is 162 years old. He says he was born m London, and lived there until he became a centenarian, when he sailed for this country. - The Rich mond & Danville Syndicate will build the Western road to Murphy, if let alone, and then extend it to Chattanooga. The able editor of the Farmer and Mechanic is contemplating a daily paper at Raleigh. Everybody will say success to him. Many citizens of Greensboro will re member one Charles E. Anchisi, who was here in 1878-'74, Connected with the secret service.

He sometimes went by the name of Cotter. Mud Cut has at last been circumvented and but little or no trouble from that source is expected in the future. A ditch thirty feet wide has been cut around it with abundant fall to carry off the water that exudes from tne little mountain that flanks one side, and which has been the cause of the trouble in the nast. The track is laid six miles beyond Marshall Marshall nes tles in a little valley, only a few hundred feet wide. The houses are scattered along the edge of the French. Broad. Before the railroad penetrated the town there was barely enough room.f or pedestrian locomo tion between the river and the mountain. With the train in Marshall, our informant says, the town is chuck- full, With hardly room enough to turn around. . .

Milton Nobles will visit both Charlotte and Raleigh, but will not come here, although a favorite with Wilmington play-goers. This section has been visited by very heavy dews lately almost equal to light showers of rain and it would be con ducive to health to remain as much as possi ble in doors after night. The receipts of cotton at this port for the month of October just closed footed up 27,870 bales, as against 28,800 bales for the corresponding month last year,, showing a decrease of 980 bales for 1881. The German barqne Katie Stuart, Capt. Arnold, was cleared from this port for Liverpool, yesterday, by Messrs. Williams & Murchison, with 1,416 bales of cotton, weighing 656,753 pounds and valued at $73,984. Owing to a recent change in the schedule on the Atlantic & N. C. Rail road, mails from this city for Newbern and other points on that road will close at 5.30 p. m. each day, or the same time the Northern through mail ctoses. mayor's Court. The case of Lewis Jackson, colored, ar rested by Officer B. F. Bryan on Tuesday evening, charged with stealing a ham of bacon from Mr. R H. Bordeaux, corner of Market and South Water streets, mention of which was made in yesterday's paper. came up before Mayor Smith yesterday morning. The evidence was conclusive as to the guilt of the prisoner, as he was caught in the act, and he was thereupon ordered to give bond in the sum of $100 for his ap pearance at the; next term of the Criminal Court, in default of which he was turned over to the sheriff and committed to jail. The defendant stated that he had been liv ing here for the last fifteen years, and it is said he generally exerted suspicion from the fact that he was nearly always equipped with a bag or sack of some sort. Aaron Jones, colored, an old offender, was arraigned on the charge of acting dis orderly near the foot of Chesnut street, about 10 o'clock Tuesday night, and re sisting Officer McCall when he attempted to arrest him. Defendant was ordered to pay a fine of $5 or go below for ten days. A miniature Cotton Fire. A little excitement was created on Mar ket street Tuesday night by a bale of cotton taking fire. It seems that the smell of something burning had been detected by pedestrians on the street, and finally reached the olfactories of Chief of Police Brock, who has his domicil in. -that neighbilhood, and who, with the pcenMuL onLthM bat, instituted an investigation and,:-4na!ly discovered the scent to piscecd from a bale of cotton on " the side walk in front of one! of . the grocery stores. The fire was in an open place in IheJ&ale from which samples had been taken, and as the bale was standing upright, with an other leaning against it, (the fire being between the two) the difficulty in finding it is accounted for. The fire, which was get ting under pretty good headway, was quick ly extinguished, and without an alarm. Pine Forest Cemetery. Pine Forest Cemetery, belonging to the colored people of this city, and located just east of Oakdale, is being considerably enlarged. At least about six acres of land belonging to the company, but hitherto unused, are being taken in and enclosed with a neat and substantial fence, which will be whitewashed when completed. The grounds are very suitable for the purpose, and it is hoped our colored people will takf ja, becoming pride in beautifying them; as well as those heretofore In use and which are now becoming quite thickly tenanted by the silentvictim of the grim destroyer The eemeterybtas many-natural advantages, Wild needs hut little care and attention properly bestowed to make it a very hlansomelandso. fj j L The Wstr Works,, ut,, By permission of the city authorities the work of laying ,pipe for .the waterworks has been resumed, and w progressing on fifth street, which - will complete the contract.

TT (7 au Co. I THE JTPPJBK CjLFE Tne Appropriation for tne Improve ment of Navigation Cause of Delay In Prosecuting the Work, Sec. It is generally: known that the last Con gress appropriated $30,000 towards improv ing the navigation of the upper Cape Fear river, of which sum $10,000 was to go to wards extinguishing the vested rights of the Cape Fear Navigation Company in said improvement. A good deal of inquiry and speculation has been indulged in as to the cause of the failure of the proper authorities to proceed with the necessary surveys,' etc.. preparatory to the commencement of the work, so important to the business interests of both Wilmington and Fayettevjlle,to say nothing of other and intermediate points. This delay, we understand, as was intima ted in a letter published in 'the Stab from Capt. James Mercur, of Norfolk, the en gineer in charge, to Mr. A. H. Van Bok- kelen. President of the Chamber of Com' merce of this city, in response to inquiries from him, has been due to the usual "red tape" in connection with such matters, which has resulted so far in the failure on the part of the govern ment to paythe' $10,000 and secure the title which is ready to be surrendered at any moment. This matter, we are now glad to understand, will be attended to in a few days, when there will be nothing in the way of prosecuting the survey. It was very desirable that this should have been attended to during the long-continued low water in the river, and if this opportunity shall prove to have been lost by the seem ingly unnecessary delay, it will doubtless be long before such another one occurs, and the work may after all have to be prose cuted under the disadvantages which will result from a high stage of water, One Successful and Two Unsuccessful Attempts at Housebreaking and Robbery. A thief entered a house on Red Cross, be tween Fourth and Fifth streets, on Satur day night last, and played havoc with the proprietor's arrangements for Sunday, in asmuch as he carried off all the provisions in the cook room and then made a clean sweep of the pantry, rendering it actually necessary for the family to borrow provis ions from their neighbors for Sunday's breakfast, dinner and supper. Entrance into the cook room was effected through an end window, but it is supposed that the thief used a key to get into the pantry, as it was known to have been locked. The same night an effort was made to enter a house on the opposite side of the street, tracks having been discovered under each of the windows, besides other evi dences of the presence of the would:be thief; and on Sunday night an attempt was made to enter another dwelling in the same neighborhood. It is thought that two white men strangers who came there ear ly in the evening and asked for water, were the parties who made the unsuccessful ven ture. The Rice Trade. Our rice mills seem to be creating quite a revolution in the trade in that cereal in the northeastern section of the State, where upland rice is fast becoming the leading product, and it should be a source of grati fication to all to see the trade in that article being diverted so perceptibly from its usual channels and taking its natural course in the direction of the commercial metrop olis of the State. Formerly all the rice in that important section that was ship ped at all found its way to Charleston and other ports "outside6f" bur own State, but now the great bulk of the crop will proba bly come to Wilmington. To give some idea of the extent of the trade in this article at present we would state that five thousand bushels of rough rice are expected to arrive here by vessel to the order of the Ca rolina Rice Mills to-day. and that other large cargoes are on the way. In addition to these shipments by water there are also constant arrivals of rice by train, shipped at Newbern and averaging at the least calculation one carload per day since the 15th ef October.
