No one but a rabid Northerner ever credited the slander concerning ex President Davis and the woman's clothes after it had been denied by him and others. A correspondent of . the New York Herald has been in terviewing Jonas H. Jones, who lives at Raleigh. He was the colored car riage driver of Mr. Jefferson Davis, who was with him all through the war and when he was captured, and Jones says there is absolutely no truth in the story that Mr. Davis was disguised in Mrs. Davis's Clothes when he attempted to escape. That ought to settle it. But the lie will continue to travel the rounds in the slanderous Northern sheets just as if it was the truth. Mr. Tom Whitney, who is to mar ry Miss Kellogg, is 40. She is 39. He is rich, and so we suppose the in tended bride is. Mr. V. is a wid ower. le has been last ana a rover, but successful in business. His fa ther is quite rich, too. Miss K. will retire from the stage, and America will lose its best native singer. Won't somebody please "bust up" that engagement? She is to be mar ried in March next. Mrs. Abram Lincoln is in New York, an invalid and in want. She has a pension of $3,000. Being in the hands of the doctors her income is insHfficient. If some of the Grant admirers, who lavish their thousands on him, would give something to the afflicted widew of the late President Lincoln they would be exercising probably a real charity. But they prefer probably to give their surplus to the great national beggar. On November 29th a mob at Du- rand, Minnesota, dragged Ed. Max- well from the court house and hanged him. He confessed he shot the Cole man brothers,but in self-defence. The widow of Charles Coleman and Hen ry Coleman and his wife were pres ent and witnessed the taking of Max well from the custody of the law. N. C. CONFERENCE CHURCH. M. E. Durham Recorder's Report.

Kinston Journal: The frost has destroyed all hopes of a crop of cotton from the second growth. A few of the bolls will open, but it will not be worth much.

Deceased came to Wilmington from Lawrence, Mass.,Jabout the year 1868, and at once took position as one of the leaders of the Republican party in this city and county being always looked upon as one of the shrewdest manipulators m the party and thoroughly posted on all the Questions of the hour.

The following are the indications for to day: For the Middle Atlantic States, warmer, south to west winds, falling barometer, and partly cloudy weather in the northern por tion, with light snow. For the South At lantic States, warmer, fair weather, varia ble winds and falling barometer. For the Gulf States, warmer, fair weather, south east to southwest winds and falling barom eter. For Tennessee and the Ohio Valley, warmer, partly cloudy weather, local rains, southerly to westerly winds and falling ba rometer. The Weather. The rains of Wednesday and Wednesday night were followed on Thursday by a very decided fall in temperature, the cold in creasing as the day and the night succeed ing .advanced. The storm signal was kept flying from the weather observatory during the day, and Thursday ' night the chilly blasts whistled with a cheerless and uncom fortable sound around "the dwellings of the drowsy inhabitants, doubtless penetrat ias through the cracks and crannies of many a dilapidated cabin and causing the thinly clad and scantily provided inmates to shiver with cold. Yesterday morning there was plenty of ice in the streets, and we hear in some instances, in exposed places, of its having formed to the thickness of three-quarters of an inch. From the Signal Office we learn that yes terday morning at 7 o'clock the mercury in the thermometer at Atlanta had dropped in the preceding twenty-four hours from 33 to 21 ; at Augusta from 46 to 26; at Cape Hatteras from 49 to 32; at Charleston from 48 to 30, at Charlotte from 40 to 32; at Jacksonville, Florida, from 54 to 33; at Key West from 76 to 64; at Memphis from 40 to 24; at New York from 42 to 25; at Savannah from 50 to 24 ; at Shreveport from 50 to 27; at San Antonio from 55 to 29; at Washington, D. C, from 32 to 22; and at Wilmington, N. C, from 38 to 28 degrees. In nearly all the above places there were killing frosts; so we may consider wintry weather to have commenced in earnest. Thanksgiving Day. Thanksgiving Day was observed in this city on Thursday in much the usual way. There were joint services at the First Pres byterian Church, in which members of the Presbyterian, Baptist, Methodist and Lutheran Churches participated, the sermon on the occasion being preached by Rev. G. D. Bernheim, D. D. , of the latter church, and appropriate services were also held at ' some of the other churches. The most of the business houses were closed during the day and others part of the day; but the hunters were not as numerous as on many similar occasions, in consequence of the rain of Wednesday .and Wednesday night, which rendered the woods rather damp. However, the Thanksgiving turkey was not slighted, and altogether the day passed off very pleasantly, in accordance with each and every one's peculiar idea as to how it should be spent. Important to Merchants and Others. A ruling made by the Acting Postmaster General is of much importance, especially to merchants. General Hattonhas decided that matter produced by the hand-stamps the type-writer or the copy press are all prima facia within the intent of the postal regulation, providing that reproductions upon paper having the character of an ac upon paper having tne cnaracter oi an ac- tual personal correspondence" shall not be included in the term "printed matter. it is reasonable to assume, he adds, when mat ter is produced by one not engaged in the business of printing, and but one copy can be produced by the process adopted, that the matter is intended for use only between two persons upon subjects personal to them- T kJ A Comparison of Maximum and Mini- mnm iempeniurci We are indebted to Mr. McGann, of the Signal Service, for the following, showing theTange of the thermometer at the Signal Office in this city en the dates named: Maximum.
