Extract from the log-book of a North Carolina Mahone. The' Morning VOL. XXIX. NO. 74. Walt Whitman is thought to be a great poet by certain people in New England. You may find a few ad mirers scattered around New York and some in England. He has some genius but of a very peculiar type. There is no danger fortunately of his poems ever becoming popular. The New York Evening Post has been reading the reprint of his "Leaves of Grass, and says: "Mr. Whitman is often ranked with the 'fleshly school,' and his circle of Enerlish admirers is almost identical with the co terie whose apostles are Swinburne and Wilde. But the erotic poems of these au thors are to those of Whitman as rose-water "to vitrol. The English poets have at their worst some thin veneering of personal emo tion; with Whitman there seems no erteam of anything personal, much less of that simple, generous impulse which makes every young man throw some halo of ideal charm about the object of his adoration. Whitman's love, if such it can be called, is the sheer animal longing of sex for sex the impulse of the savage, who knocks down the first woman he sees, and drags her to his cave." Gen. Joseph E. Johnston does not like ex-President Davis. In a recent interview of him reported in the Philadelphia Press, he says Mr. Davis had a large sum supposed to be as much as 2,500,000 on nis departure from Richmond. He does not know what became of it, as "Mr. Davis has never given any satisfactory account of it." Gen. Johnston hardly thinks, we suppose, that Mr. Davis appro priated it for his own use. We doubt if the big sum remained, and the as sault looks spiteful. If it is supposed that all of the ignorance is to be found in the South it is a mistake. If it is thought that higher education prevails in the North universally it is a mistake. The fol lowing speaks for itself : ' ' The following are some of the answers given in a written examination in English literature in one of the high schools of Massachusetts : ' Kit North was a noted highwayman,' ' Tennyson's Idols are his best works." 'Wads worth wrote Laome don,' ' Currer Bell is a character in one of George Eliot's novels,' 'The Dominican Theatre was the first licensed theatre in London."' Wo believe a North Carolina High School could equal that performance. According to, the New York Times the following will be the Arthur Cabinet when it is completed : Secretary of State Frederick T. Frelinff- huysen, of New Jersey. Secretary of the Ireasury Charles J. Folger, of New York! Secretary of W ar- Kobert IV Lincoln, ol Illinois. Secretary of the Navy George S. Bout- well, of Massachusetts. Postmaster General Timothy O. Howe, of Wisconsin. Secretary of the Interior Jerome B. Chaffee, of Colorado. Attorney General Benjamin Hams Brewster, of Pennsylvania. The Milton Chronicle mentions that Maj. W. T. Sutherlin, the most public-spirited and perhaps the wealthiest citizen of Danville, Va., was knocked down and robbed of $600 in his own yard, a few nights ago, by two unknown men. He was badly hurt. Such crimes are becom ing very frequent. Self-protection must be man's reliance, and this will necessitate carrying the hip-pocket loaded. Some of the Stalwarts are open in their advocacy of Grant and a third term. They say ho must succeed Arthur, and that he is the only man "who can lead the new break in American politics." Mr. Blaine will have something to say about that ar rangement of the slate. Spirits Turpentine. Greensboro Bugle: Mrs. Lind say, wife of Jesse H. Lindsay, of Greens boro, died on Wednesday. President Arthur has bounced the Republican Postmaster at Elizabeth City and put in one of his "many friends." Mr. John Niven was shot by a man named Enoch Jourdan, a tenant of the former, in Anson county. The wounds are bad but not fatal. Jourdan fled. Monroe Express: More grain has been sown in this county than for a num ber of years past. With good seasons the farmers will reap abundant harvests next yaar. The Gold Leaf is the title of a new weekly paper just begun at Hender son, Vance county, by Mr. Thad R. Man ning, price $2 a year. The first number is newgy and creditable. Our best wishes at tend! Murfreesboro Enquirer: Dr. Richard J. Gatling, of Hartford, Connecti cut, formerly a resident of Hertford coun ty, and the inventor of the Gatling gun, is spending a few days in his native old county. Wadesboro Times: Rev. James L. Williams will preach his farewell ser mon at the Presbyterian church next Sun day, and in a few days return to his former home in Mecklenburg county. This step is taken in obedience to the commands of his physician; . ,-Jfff)' - . . Charlotte Observer: We under stand that the Baltimore and North Caro lina Mine has been pushing work very en ergetically during the past month, sinking shafts to lower depths, and recently cutting WILMINGTON, N. the ;Vein at: these greater depths, where larger veins have been developed than ever known before in this mine. Reidsville Times: We hear from Greensboro that a young" man on a visit there cut the backstep in the Metho dist Church last Sunday during the bene diction, and was observed. Dv two citizens. who reported to the Mayor, and he was arraigned the next day and put under bonds for his appearance at the March term of court. ' v Petersburg correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch: Information re ceived here states that Mr. T. R. Mason, a well known citizen of Northampton coun ty, N. C; was severely cut and "injured two or three days ago by a negro named John Jones, while endeavoring to prevent a fight between the latter and another negro. Jones drew a knife and stabbed Mr. Mason in the side, and then fled from the county. Winston Republican: -Col. T. N. Cooper is an applicant for the marshal ship of Western North Carolina. On Saturday morning last Mrs. Sithia Frazier, a widow lady, living on the Germanton road, in this county, was found dead in bed. She had been to a burying in town the day before, and retired at night as well as usual. The deceased was about fifty years of age. Milton Chronicle: On the even ing of the 7th inst. Cornelia A. Jones, aged 23, of this city, came to her death in a most shocking manner. She had been subject to spasms at intervals for many years, and on the 7th inst. her devoted mother stepped out of the house to attend to the store for a few minutes, leaving her daughter alone in the house by the fire. The mother stayed longer than she intended, and on her re turn she found that Cornelia had had a spasm and fallen with her head into the fire, and that she was burnt to death. Wadesboro Intelligencer: Miss Sarah Catharine Thompson, daughter of Wm. Thompson, of Stanly county, died of typhoid pneumonia, on November 17th. She was 26 years old. The petition for the abolition of the fences in Lilesville, Morven, and Ansonville townships will be submitted to the County Commissioners on Wednesday next. -Mr. Thomas Scarbo- ro, who accidentally shot himself recently, near Mangum, in Richmond county, died Tuesday evening. His jaws were locked, and every joint m his body was locked. His sufferings were intense before death. Rockingham ' Spirit: We re gret to learn that the dwelling and kitchen of Mr. E. H. Wooley, of the Pekin neigh borhood, Montgomery county, was burned last Sunday night, the family barely escap ing with their lives. A firm in this town were required to pay $12 94 freight on a box of merchandise weighing 475 pounds from Baltimore. This appears to us rather "steep." Mr. Lawrence Stewart, a very intelligent and promising young man, aged about 18 years, son of the late JT. Angus Stewart of Laurmburg, and grandson of our townsman, Maj. R. T. Long, died in this town on Saturday morn ing last, after a protracted illness, of typhoid lever. Henderson Gold Leaf: The new depot buildinff for the Oxford & Hen derson Railroad, at this place, has been completed. - Dwelling bouses are in great demand here, and our contractors are kept busy putting up new buildings. A gentleman travelling in the interest of a safe manufacturing company recently in formed us that he had orders for safes to the amount of two car loads for this place and Oxford alone. Looks like somebody has money to lay away. Maj. John C. Winder, General superintendent ol the Raleigh & Gaston and Raleigh & Augusta Railroads, has issued the following circular which explains itself: "Owing to the shortness of the grain crop, the rates on -a in from Portsmouth have been reduced ! to all local stations on these roads, and we 1 hope, by this means, to enable our citizens to supply themselves without much inconve nience." This is indeed a commendable act. The Richmond and Danville railroad authorities have a large force of men at work surveying a route from Keysville, on the line of said road, direct to Henderson. They propose to strike the old Clarksville road (which has been erraded) at mat place, and tak down that for some distance, and then strike off in a bee line for Henderson. Upon their arrival here it is thought they will push on and tap the North Carolina railroad, which 4ine they control, at some suitable point, perhaps Raleigh. It is said they mean business. THE CITT.

The late visit of the army officers to Cape Fear river, in our Sunday's paper, was somewhat erroneous. Gen. Wright, the Chief of Engineers, was not expected, as we are now informed. A Board of Engi neers, consisting of Gen. Q. A. Gilmore, Gen. C. B. Comstock and Col. Wm. P. Craighill, with Capt. Thomas Turtle as Re corder, was convened, at the request of Col. Craighill, for the purpose of advising as to what steps should be taken in the fu ture improvement of Cape Fear river. All the officers were present, and will report at a future time. Their business had no connection with any investigation of any person's conduct. Col. Craighill alone has dealt with the charges against the Assistant Engineer, and his report thereon will show what foundation there is for them. Foreign Shipments. The following embrace the foreign ship ments from this port yesterday: The Nor wegian barque Atlantic, Capt. Knudsen, for Liverpool, by Messrs. Williams & Mar ch ison, with 1,621 bales of cotton, weigh ing 759,400 pounds, and valued at $85,433; and the schooner Winnie Lawry, Capt. Spear, for St. John's, P. R., by Messrs. Northrop & Cumming, with 164,011 feet of lumber and 40,000 shingles, valued at $2, 952.48. Total valuation of foreign exports for the day, $88,385, g, The fairest faces are sometimes marred by myriads of pimples, and markings of tetter or freckles, which are really removed by a popular toilet dressing, known as Dr. Benson's Skin Cure, Even scrofulous ulcers yield to it. t C, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 21, 1881. Ieal Xkota. The receipts of cotton yesterday were 1,431 bales. According to the almanac win ter commences to-day. Eggs were selling yesterday at from 35 to 40 cents per dozen. There will be a shooting match at Hilton on Monday, the 26th inst. It was remarkably quiet in po lice and magisterial circles yesterday. The first sky rocket of the sea son was sent up on Second street last night. We learn that the criminal docket of Pender Superior Court is very heavy. It looked and sounded decided ly Christmasy on Front and Market streets last night. The schr. Jidia ElizabeihX.. Ingram, arrived from Nassau yesterday with a cargo of fruit. We noticed a great many coun try people in the city yesterday, laying in their Christmas supplies. The legal fraternity generally have a very good opinion of Judge Shipp's ability and his manner of dispatching busi ness. We are indebted to Messrs. Walter Brown & Co., 152 Federal street, Boston, for weekly reports of the wool market. We dislike very much to say it, but it is a fact, nevertheless, that nearly every little boy in the-city has "taken a horn" within the last few days a sure sign of the near approach of Christmas.

E. church, preached his initiatory sermon on Sunday morning last, in which he took occasion to define what in his opinion constitute the duties and responsi bilities of pastor and people, respectively, and made a very favorable impression upon his large audience. Rev. F. A. Bishop preached at night. At the Fifth Street church the new Pre siding Elder, Rev. R. O. Burton, preached two very acceptable sermons, the occasion being the first quarterly meeting for the present conference year, We" understand he will remain here during the week, the first quarterly meeting for the Front Street church taking place next Saturday and Sunday.

The Wilmington Library Assoeiatlon. At the regular annual meeting of the stockholders of the Wilmington Library As sociation, held in their rooms on Market street, on Monday night, the following offi cers were elected for the ensuing year: President Alex Sprunt. Vice President Richard J. Jones. Directors W. L. Smith. G. W. Williams, John Cowan, F. W. Kerchner, B. A. Hal lett, C. H. Robinson, Thos. F. Wood. Mr. C. H. Robinson, the former Presi dent, declined a re-election. We hope to see an awakening interest in the community in the matter of their public library. It is an institution of which our people should feel proud, containing, as it does, all the standard and popular works of the day, as well as of other days, together with many of the lead ing periodicals and newspapers of our own time, to say nothing of the old files, the perusal of which is 6uch a source of satis faction to many readers. If the reading community generally would become inter ested in the Library to the extent of lending some pecuniary assistance in meeting its liabilities and keeping it up to a proper standard of efficiency, there would not be so much trouble experienced by its friends in making it, as it deserves to be, a valuable and prosperous institution in our growing oity. It should be remembered, too, that in years past it has been through the,instrumentality of the Library Association that the literary appetite of the community has been catered to, in the admirable lectures which have been delivered from time to time; and this is another and important reason why the association should receive every possible encouragement at the hands of the people of Wilmington.
