Mrs. Winsmore, Mrs. Watson and Mrs. Smith, three sisters, all died about the same hour Saturday night, at Philadelphia, from natural causes. T wo men were arrest ed in New York with $100,000 in city bouils, stolen from the register's office' at St. Joseph, Mo. Prince Gortschakoff has been relieved as Minister of Foreign Affairs, for Russia, on account of age and ill health, and is succeeded by M. Degiers. Parnell has been released from prison in Ireland. Prominent officials in Ireland take a gloomy view of the state of the country, and are considering the ques tion of repeal of the coercion act.

The striking mill operatives at Fall River and Lawrence, Mass., are still firm; but the mill managers expect many of them to re turn to work before the week ends. The Mississippi river has fallen ten inches at Memphis. A large paper mill was burned near Chester, Penn. ; loss $50,000; insurance $30,000. r Ex-Gov.

During the present month there will be six evening stars visible. Dr. Mary Walker has just got into trouble in Washington. She is ac cused of tampering with the mails. It was Mr. Theophilns H. Hill, and not Theodore, as printed, who wrote the poem we copied on Sunday. Another Chines.e bill is under con sideration. The Republicans are manoeuvring to gain lost ground by the veto. - Among the Indians of Montana Territory in 1831, there were 2,330 births and but 1,989 deaths show ing a steady increase. Frank James writes to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch that the report of his brother's death the great rob ber, Jesse is "a Dam Lie." We have received two additional solutions of the water problem, but having published one there is no use of publishing another, especially as we have not the algebraic signs and figures. There is crookedness reported in the Quartermaster's Department. The letter in the Richmond Dispatch from Washington, of April 7th, says: "The House determined to investigate the alleged corrupt transactions in the Quartermaster's Department. It is charged that the clerks in that Department have been charging loyal claimants a regular per centage for allowing them the money due them bv the Government." Serenity and peace do not prevail all around the Republican circle. For instance, the following heading to Arthur's veto appeared in the Chica go Tribune, Republican: "Another Echo from the Bull-Dog Pis tol.of Charles J. Guiteau The Stalwart President Returns the Chinese Bdl with His Objections His Objections Seem to be Those Entertained by the Mongolian Am bassadorText of a Message Which Pleased Few Beside Hard-Hearted Massachusetts Sentimentalists." Senator Hawley has introduced a bill to raise a colored commission to inquire into and report upon the in dustrial, intellectual and material progress of the colored people of the United States since the war. It went to the Senate Committee on Educa tion and Labor to-day. It will con sist of five members and will cost not less than $26,500. A useless, foolish expenditure. How Senators do love to vote away other people's money. This "hard one" is sent by an in quiring correspondent to the Boston Journal : Mr. Editor : Tell me why colonel Is spelled in a style so infolonel ? Shed one ray of light On a sorrowful wight Who for years has subscribed for the Journal. The best plan is to spell it "kurnel," and then the absurdity disappears. Nineteen-twentieths of the men of that rank in North Carolina wear it spelled as just given. It is appreci ated highly. The VOL. XXX. NO. 17. Spirits Turpentine.

New Memian: Peas are now being shipped to Northern markets by steamer and by rail. By reference to our file we see that the first shipment of peas last year was made on Tuesday, April the 26th. The first shipment made the present season was on last Saturday, the 1st inst. It will be seen by this that we are nearly four weeks in advance of last year. We learn that in Pamlico, Hyde and the lower part of Beaufort counties a largely increased acreage will be seeded in rice. Tarboro Soxitherner : Last Fri day, on the plantation f Mr. W. J. Daven port, a negro woman, while burning brush in the new ground, accidently caught fire and was so badly burned that she died o n Monday night. Judge Bennett would make a good candidate for Congressman at Large or any other office in the gift of the people. Week before last a negro child on the plantation of N. B. Killebrew was burnt to death. The parents left the child (who was quite young) in the house and while they were absent, the clothes of the child caught fire. Milton Chronicle: Why didn't the colored convention at Goldsboro do a little howling over the right of the negro to vote for postmasters, revenue collectors, U. S. Judges, Attorneys, &c. ? We repeat the question, why? They are terrioiy con cerned about not voting for magistrates, but as dumb as oysters about these Federal officers. Mr. Green Carter, a promi nent planter of this Jvicinity, has sent us a gourd three feet nine inches long. The handle, which is straight and about one inch in diameter, is three feet one inch in length. A negro boy was drowned at Claiborn's ferrv on Dan River Thursday last. He was crossing the river in a SKin: when the pole broke and he fell into the river. Raleigh News- Observer: Sen ator Vance who has been up to pay an offi cial visit of inspection to the Western North Carolina Railroad, passed through, tne city yesterday, on his return to Washington City.

Holden's condition yesterday morning phowed great improvement, but in the even ing it was not so gooa, we learn. ine medical building at Shaw University is nearly completed. The design is somewhat odd, but the general effect is pleasing. Pittsboro Record: Who ever before heard of wheat or oats in this coun try heading in the month of March? Who ever heard of a drake mating a spar row and a tiny one at that? And yet such recently occurred in Chatham, for in this county last week Mr. Dallas P. Drake was married to Miss Tiny Sparrow. A little seven-year-old daughter of Dr. W. S. Edwards, of Albright township, made a narrow escape from being killed, on last Thursday. She was riding a mule when it became frightened and began to run, and, in falling off, her foot became entangled in the stirrup and she was dragged a hundred yards on the ground. When picked up she was unconscious, and remained in that condition for half an hour, but fortunatelv no bones were broken nor serious injury inflicted. Charlotte Observer : The post office at Lawsonville, Rockingham county, N. C, has been discontinued; mail to Reids ville. A new office has been established at Rippetoe, N. O, with David A. Griffin as postmaster; also at Polenta, N. C, with W. M. Saunders as postmaster. It is a fact, that North Carolina produces more hay per acre than any State along the line of the coast from Maine to Texas, with the single exception of the Empire State. This speaks well for our agricultural facilities. Messrs. Newcomb Bros. , of the Char lotte Planing Mills and Bellows Factory, have only been in business here a little over two years, but during that time their busi ness has been steadily growing, and bids fair ere long to become one of the most impor tant and remarkable manufacturing estab lishments in the South. Beaufort Telephone: Mr. B. L. Jones, of this town, killed a hog twelve months and twenty days old that weighed 455 pounds, an average per month of a trifle less than 36 pounds. Mr. Wm. Weekly, while cutting with a hatchet onSun day last, struck his little finger on the left hand and entirely severed it from that mem ber. A protracted meeting was held at Smyrna, last week and part of the week before, under the auspices of Rev. Mr. Cashwell, of the Baptist church; there were ten conversions. The Collector of Customs has received invoices of two more vessels loaded with steel rails for the Midland Railroad, as follows: The Rome, containing 900 tons, cleared from Cardiff, Wales, February 28th, and the Noah, with 675 tons, cleared February 28th. They will probably be here next week or the week after. These two cargoes complete the complement of 5,000 tons, which was the amount purchased by the Midland Railroad. Greensboro Bugle: We had a talk with President Gray to-day, and he says no one was surprised that Dr. Canedo failed to comply with his contract. His proposition was based upon the promise that the Legislature would be called and some important amendments made to the charter. This failure works no harm to the road, and the grading will be pushed as rapidly as the limited number of hands will allow. There is no money to buy cross ties, much less iron, and with the limit placed by the Legislature upon the power to mortgage it cannot be raised in sufficient 2uantity to do any material good. G. !. Boon, of Madison, who sold a load of to bacco at the Star warehouse to-day, bought cotton seed and is going to put an acre in tobacco and ap acre in cottton, and keep an accurate account of the cost of cultivating each acre, and when the crops are ready for market he will sell and then know which pays best. This is the way to test anything on the farm and no farmer should cultivate any crop without keeping a strict account with it. WILMINGTON, N. C, TUESDAY, APRIL 11, 1882. THIS CITT.

Owen A. Gill, a gentleman of Baltimore, Md. , interested in tea culture, passed through the city yesterday, en route for Georgetown, S. C, where he goes to instruct planters in the proper prepara tion of tea for market. The Episcopal, Catholic, and Lutheran churches were all dressed beauti fully on Easter Sunday. The decorations at St. Paul's Lutheran church are alluded to as being especially handsome and appro priate, evidencing much care and good taste in their preparation. , a f . Easter Service. Nearly all of the city ministers preached sermons on Easter Sunday appropriate to the joyful occasion, and the Episcopal, St. Thomas' Catholic, and St. Paul's Lutheran churches were handsomely and tastefully decorated. At the latter church the deco rations greatly surpassed those on former occasions, combining the ideas of the new pastor, Rev. Mr. Peschau, with those of the congregation. This was the case both on Good Friday and Easter Sunday. On Friday a large bell was suspended in the midst of the arch over the pul pit, which was draped in black, with the inscriptions in gilt letters, "Christ Crucified." A large cross draped in black occupied a place in the niche back of the pulpit, and the entire church was draped in mourning and festooned with moss. On the wall on one side of the pulpit was the inscription in black letters, "Christ Cruci fied," and on the other side in black Ger man type the words, "Christns Gekrenzi get." On Easter Sunday the whole aspect of things had changed, the church being strung with garlands and evergreens, while in the niche back of the pulpit the draped cross of Good Friday had given place to one of the same size decked with evergreens and a garland of white roses and surmount ed by a croftn of lovely flowers. The bell, so sombre and black on Good Friday, was now gilded with gold, and had inscribed upon it in silver letters the words "Christ Arisen ;" while on the walls on one side of the pulpit was the inscriptions, in gold let ters, "Christ is Arisen," and on the other "Christus ist Auferstanden."

Signal service Reforms A New Ar rangement. In order that the reports of the rain-fall and maximum and minimum temperatures may be collected with reliability and dis seminated rapidly throughout the commer cial centres of the cotton-belt, arrangements hare been made by the Signal Service Bu reau, with the co-operation of the railroad and telegraph lines, by which the territory alluded to has been divided into districts, each embracing a number of the more im portant cities, with one as the centre, at which reports will be concentrated and by which name the district will be known. For instance, Wilmington District, on the Wilmington & Weldon, Carolina Central, Richmond & Danville Line, Cheraw & Dar lington and Wilmington, Columbia & Au gusta Railroads, is composed of nine sta tions, with Wilmington as the centre, as fol lows: Wilmington, Weldon, Goldsboro, Lumberton, Wadesboro, Charlotte, Salis bury, Cheraw, S. C, and Florence. S. C. ; while Mobile District has seven stations, Atlanta nine, Galveston eighteen, etc. When the reports from the various stations are re ceived at their respective centres, then the Signal Service observers will make up the average rainfall, average maximum temper ature, and average minimum temperature for the districts. In accordance with this arrangement we commence this morning the publication of the District reports from the Signal Office, in lieu of the report heretofore given. mayor's The "crop" of cases befofSHte Honor, Mayor Smith, yesterday morning, Was a little in excess of the usual Saturday night's yield in the era of general good behaihor, embracing the following: Obediah Jenkins, charged with acting disorderly on the streets, was required to pay a fine of $10 or he imprisoned for twenty days. Poor Scipio Hill, having swallowed a gill, fell on the pave, when a policeman brave took him in out of the wet, and he'd been locked up yet, but he paid the dollar which the Mayor exacted and was told to go and sin no more; a promise he'll keep as sure as two and three make four ! Judy Ann Hunter, a colored damsel, charged with disorderly conduct, was re quired to contribute $5 to the city treasury Daniel Oxendine, colored, charged with stealing a piece of meat from the stole of Mr. J. H. Strauss, on North Water Btreet, on Saturday afternoon last, for which he was arrested by Officer Lewis Gordon, was arraigned for preliminary examination, but the case was finally continued for the de fendant until Thursday, the 18th inst. Two other cases of disorderly conduct were disposed of, when the Court ad journed. Tne Proposed New Hotel at Smith ville The new and commodious Hotel to be erected at Smithville and leased to Mr. B. L. Perry, of the PurceU House of this city, mention of which was made in the Star a week or so ago, is now being framed at Mr. J. W. Taylor's mill, under the direc tion of the contractor, Mr. Joseph Silvy. In dimensions it will be 72x36 feet. The first floor will contain fifteen rooms, with three passages, seventeen windows and fourteen doors; the second floor will con tain fifteen rooms, three passages, eighteen windows and twelve doors; and the third floor twelve rooms, three passages, twenty windows and twelve doors. There will be a long piazza in front, the entire length of the building, and a long L verandah on the south side 36x25 feet. The dining room will be 60x20 feet, containing twelve win dows and two doors. There is a large force engaged upon the worsv and the hotel, unless some unforeseen accident happens to prevent, will be in readiness for the reception of guests by the first of June, the commencement of the heated term.

There was a very good crowd at the Opera House last night, to witness the pre sentation of this play by Mr. Charles L. Davis and Company, The audience was highly appreciative and appeared to greatly enjoy the performance. The applause was always liberal and often enthusiastic and almost deafening. Mr. Davis, as the hero, bore off the K6h6rsof the "occasion, and was the centre-piece around which the other characters revolved. His impersonation re minds one forcibly of John E. Owens in "Solon Shingle," and though lacking in originality, is well done and often intensely laughable. This about winds up the theatrical sea son here, and we are glad to know that the prospects for next winter are unusually promising. The Baker Brothers to the Front Again. Considerable of a disturbance occurred on Market street, near Front, yesterday af ternoon, about half -past 4 o'clock. It seems that the Baker brothers, Isaac and Jim. known as "The Twins." were passing along the sidewalk cursing and acting disorderly when Officer Gafford, of the police force, warned them to stop, informing them that if they did not he would be compelled to arrest them, whereupon Isaac Baker com menced cursing and abusing him, when he attempted to arrest him and he resisted. A large crowd gathered in the meantime, and some of them were very threatening and dis orderly, shouting, "If he hits him, go for him." Officer Gafford summoned several in the crowd to .assist him, but they either refused or got out of the way, and he was kept so busy by Baker that he cOuld not recognize them so as to report tnem. Finally, however, Mr. Gafford received re inforcements in the persons of Officers Scharff and Roderick, Mr. W. M. Hays and a colored city employe named Jim Hall, when they at last succeeded in getting the prisoner to the guard house. Jim Baker in the meantime fled and had not been arrested at last accounts. Criminal Court. State vs. Charles King, convicted of lar ceny, sentenced to two years in the House of Correction. State vs. HilHary Williams, convicted of larceny, sentenced to two years in the Penitentiary.

THE FLORENCE NIGHTINGALE OF THE NURSERY. The following Is an extract from a letter written to the German Reformed Mestmger, atChambersburgh, Penn.: A Biiwrrranw. Junt open the door for her, and Mrs. Wlnalow will prove the American Florence Nightingale of the Nursery. Of this we are so sure, that we will teach our "Susy " to say, "A blessing on Mrs. Wlnslow" for helping her to survive and escape the griping, oolicking, and teething siege. Mas. Winslow's Soothing Syrup relieves the child from pain, andjcurea dysentery and diarrhoea. It softens the gums.reduces Inflammation, eureswind colic, and carries the infant safely through the teething period. It performs precisely what it professes to perform, every part of it nothing less. We have never seen Mrs. Wlnslow know her only through the preparation of her "Soothing Syrup for Children Teething." If we had the power we would make her, as she Is, a physical saviour to the Infant race. Sold by all druggists. 36 cents a bottle. WELL-MERITED SUCCESS A gentleman once asked a distinguished dis pensing druggist to explain the secret of the al most universal demand for Dr. Richmond's Samaritan Nervine. He said that it was hi fact a genuine medioine such a compound as every good physician would prescribe for the disease whioh it was advertised to cure. Of course it cost less than any druggist would charge for the same article supplied on a physician's prescrip tion, and besides, there was a saving of the doc tor's fee in addition. Moreover, by buying the drugs In such enormous quantities, and having a gerfect apparatus for compounding the mixture, e was not only enabled to get better articles In the first place, but also to present the medicine in better form and at less price than the same preparation could be possibly obtained from any other source. Dr. Richmond has devoted all his energies to the alleviation of human suffering. With this end in view, and with his whole heart in his great labor for the benefit of the afflicted, he has achieved marked and merited success. There can be no real success without true merit. That his success is real is evidenced by the fact that his reputation as a man and physician does not deteriorate, and the fact that there is a stea dily increasing damand for his Samaritan Nervine Sroves that it is no nostrum, but a reliable remedy, le has repeatedly informed the public that it is no patent medicine, and no patent has ever been asked for or obtained. Neither does he advertise it as a cure-all. There are hundreds of diseases that he acknowledges it will not cure. It may be urged that some of these diseases are so widely different that it seems absurd to prescribe the same remedy. They may differ in symptoms, yet in character be precisely similar: and then we must take Into consideration the fact that reme dies may possess various properties. Thus, some medicines are both tonic and alterative; others may be tonic and laxative, the properties differ ing according to the quantity administered and the time ana circumstances which demand its employment. In the manufacture of any pharmaceutical pre paration the purity and strength of the materials used, and the requisite machinery to be employed, are among the chief essentials. The first is In sured by purchasing the Ingredients In large quantities, whereby the exercise of greater care m selecting the materials can be afforded; and the second can only be accomplished where the business Is sufficiently extensive to warrant a large outlay of capital in procuring chemical ap paiatus. These facts apply with especial force to the manufacture of our medicines, their quality having been vastly improved since the demand has become so great as to require their manufac ture in very large quantities. These ideas are not mere speculative remarks to mislead the reader, or to imbue him with false views of the superiority of our medicines. While inspecting Dr. Richmond's establishment you would be surprised to see the admirable facilities, both chemical and mechanical, which he employs in the prosecution of his business. Everything is arranged in the most perfectly systematic order, and while to the general observer there appears to be no room for improvement, yet new appara tus and mechanical appliances are constantly bo ng procured for the estabttshinent.
