A Roman Catholic prelate of this country has recently returned from Ireland, and be advises Irishmen in the United States to hold up iu their contributions. The New York Times reports as follows: "The people in Ireland, he said, have got to depend too orach on. the pockets of America, and this is naturally destructive of self reliance. Possibly the right reverend gentleman's utterance on this head may have led to the considerable falling off in remittances to Ireland this Christmas, a cir cumstance which has attracted the notice of ome of the chief money-order offices." There was a terrible duel near Brooklyn, Missouri, on the letb. The parties were Michael Vanden burg and Matthew Woodlock. Upon the advice of friends they agreed to settle a difficulty with shot guns at 20 paces. Here is the result as tele graphed: "Both fired' simultaneously. -Tanden-burg had his eyes put out by the shot, and U so badly wounded in the head that be will die. Woodlock teceived the load from Vandenburg's weapon in the breast and neck. A luge crowd .witnessed the terrible affair and seemed to enjoy it. Dr. Grayson, who is attending the wounded men. took no less than 24 shot out of Wood look." They were terribly in earnest.

We are proud of the fact that we have aforetime written several arti- I i . - -r j n cleS m P186 f Gen' Pender and in advocacy of . a monument to his memory. An article onUhat subject by us will be found copiecHn the files of the Southerner ahnnt TfiTn or t.hA latter part of 1869, We once urged upon the Legislature to cause a. mon ument to be raised in honor of this truly superb soldier and modest gen tleman, and to have Gen. Robert-iS. Lee's eulogy upon him graven deep .on the shaft. See Lee's announce ment of Pender's death. Edgecombe is a most prosperous county and one J of the richest, and her patriotic and liberal citizens onght to have an ex quisite shaft reared in memory of the man, who Robert E. Lee said, ought to have been one of his Corps Commanders. The Caswell Sergeant has set the ball in motion, now let Edgecombe keep it going If we trot the ban? of the matter there was a bm that d the , , " iiouse uy a two-tniras vote mat is I intended to prevent cases from being taken from the State to the Federal Courts tht ought to be tried in the' former. It is very certain that some such law is required, for there have been many and great abuses for the want of justsuch a law. A man vi olating a State law should be tried before a State Court. We learn that the Acts of Assem bly for 1876-7, require thirty days registration in Congressional elec tions. This will so postpone the elec tion in this District for a successor to the lamented Mr. Shackelford as to render it unnecessarv, as the present I Conerress terminates on the 3d of March.

Second Presbyterian Church. We learn from reports made to the an nual congregational meeting of the Second Presbyterian church, printed in the Presby terian, that 111 sermons were preached du ring the year, 52 prayer meetings conduct ed, 88 children and three adults -baptized, five marriages and 12 funerals solemnized. There are now 127 members on the roll of the church; 23 were added in 1882, six were dismissed by certificate a'nd five died. The number of Sunday, school scholars enrolled is 140; of whom nearly one-half are mission scholars. The school raised $217 during the year. The Treasurer's report shows that the church has contributed to all the benevolent causes of the Church at large, -provided for the needy of the congregation, met all the church expenses, paid the pas tor's salary in f ulland placed a surplus of $600 to a sinking fund looking forward to the building of a new church. By the regular collection they have raised over $900 more than during the year 1881. The total amount raised is $3,065. Liquor Dealer's Association. A meeting of the Wilmington Liquor Dealer's Association was held last evening at the hall of the Howard Relief Fire En gine Co.

Vice President J. G. Oldeubuttel. Recording Secretary J. M. McGowan. Corresponding "Secretary Julius Levins. Treasurer F. W. Ortmann. The meeting adjourned to meet next Tuesday evening at 7.80 o'clock. A New Superintendent. It is rumored here that Col. L. C. Jones, now Superintendent of the Cape Fear and Yadkin Valley Railway Company, has been appointed Superintendent of the Carolina Central Railroad. We hope the rumor will be verified. A more accom plished engineer and thorough gentleman than L. C. Jones will be hard to find. P. S. Since the above was written, we have positive assurance that Col. Jones has been appointed Superintendent of the Carolina Central, and that he has accepted the place. Removing a Crop. .

Notwithstanding the very disagreeable weather, quite a good audience greeted .General Jones last ni?ht at the Opera House. There were a number of ladies in the audience and the address, which occu pied about two hours in its delivery, was listened to attentively throughout. Gen Jones opened his address with a tribute to the ladies of North Carolina, to the'Revo lutionary heroes of, the Sate Waddell, Ashe, Brown, Moore and ' Robinson and to the Wilmington Light Infantry, the his tory of which he said Was replete with his toric deeds. He urged the citizens of Wil mington to foster their military organiza tion. It was a nucleus for rallying in case of trouble, and though its influence might not be apparent, it was great. The militia of the State is composed of citizens engaged in business as opposed to regularly organ ized troops. Greece and Rome had their militias and thought them necessary. North Carolina, also, has had her militia from earliest times and the law under which it was organized is still in existence, though a dead letter. The great defect in the origi nal system was in making it compulsory upon all men to serve. If the law was now carried out' the militia of the coun try would now be, five million men. In speaking of our State Guard General Jones said .that in 1877, when he became Adjutant General ofthe State, there were nine companies of white men and ten of colored. Now the Guard consisted of 1,400 men, armed and equipped, of which there were thirty white companies and five co lored. This force could be concentrated at any point, and could be put in the field at a day's notice. The age of the members was between 18 and 25 years, with occa sionally a grey head to guide with its wisdom. The State of North Carolina did not appropriate one dollar for the support of this Guard, but the whole expenses were paid by the individual members. To put us on an equal footing with other States we must have help. A small amount of money expended in this way would be money wisely invested. A large sum is not required, nor is it asked. It is not to make display that this is asked, but to relieve the patriotic and public-spirited young men ot the State comprising the Guard. If it is not necessary to North Carolina as a sov ereign State disband it and declare that we are wiser than our fathers. But, it is al ways asked, why should we have a militia? It is true that our country now is blessed with profound peace from ocean to ocean, and to preserve that peace is the object of the militia. But the constitution of North Carolina commands it, as do also the Federal laws, and no further reason is needed, because we certainly can do no better than our ances tors. The wisest statesmen of this day say that a well organized militia is indispens able. We have had four great wars in our oWb history, and we will continue to have them, for war is ordained to bring out the better qualities of men. But it should be understood that the militia is always subject to the civil power. The State Guard is but the servant of the law. When the sheriff and other officers are powerless then the military can be called upon. The Governor of this State should never have to call on the United . States for troops. The speaker wished to see North Carolina able to take care of herself, and he never wished for North Carolina to ask for troops until the last round of ammunition, was exhausted and all the brick-bats and fence rails in the State had given out. Delaware supports 350 men in her State Guard and spends on them $1,200 annually; Minnesota supports 844 men and spends $5,000 ? Maryland supports 2,000 men and spends $12,000; South Carolina supports 5,179 men and spends $16,000; Maine sup ports 985 men and spends $15,988; Colorado supports 1,650 men and spends $16,000; Rhode Island supports. 923 men and spends $23.000;New Hampshire supports 1,890 men and spend $25,000; Wisconsin supports 2,400 men and spends $31,250; New Jersey sup ports 3,220 men and spends $63,842; Ohio supports 5,875 men and spends $73,800; Connecticut supports 2,367 men and spends $95,000; Massachusetts supports 4.470 men and spends $144,000 Pennsylvania supports 7,636 men and spends $220,000; New York supports 11,608 men and spends $300,000. At the Yorktown celebration the States were arranged in the order of their entry into the Union, and so North Carolina came between New York and Rhode Island the largest and the smallest States. The' contrast was striking, and as they were seen in review he could- not help thinking of the difference in treatment of the New York and Rhode Island troops and those of North Carolina. The appearance of our troops was good enough, but how much bet ter it would have been if a fractional part of what had been spent on the others had been spent on hers. But after all it was not appearance that was necessary, but nerve and soul and courage and patriotism and in these qualities North Carolina troops are equal to any and inferior to none. We -have .only attempted to give a few of the points in the admirable address of Gen. Jones and feel that. We have not done, the gentleman justice, but we are so thorough- ly impressed with the importance of this suDject, mat we wish to bring it as mucn before our people as possible. The State Guard of North Carolina is a splendid institution,' and we know that it does not contain' a company superior in any respect to the Wilmington light Infantry. We trust that the convention which as- sembles in Raleigh, next Tuesday will so impress the Legislature that all needed ap propriations Will be granted. - At the conclusion of the address Gen.' Jones, Inspector General F. H. Cameron, Gen'. M. P. Taylor and other prominent gentlemen who occupied seats upon the stage, were v escorted to German ia Hall, where the Military Ball was given. The attendance here was large, and we are sure all who were present enjoyed themselves to the utmost. A Marriage In the Country Under Peculiar Circumstances. A party of gentlemen, in carriage and buggy, wended theii way through the darkness and storm of Thursday night to witness a marriage ceremony at the resi dence of Mr. J. H. Savage, Superintendent of the County Poor House. The contracting parties were Mr. Charles Reid, an assistant under Mr. Savage, and Miss Hepsy Jane Foster, a former inmate of the institution. The party were met upon their arrival by the genial Superintendent, who treated them m anything else but a Savage manner, and what an august assemblage! There was the officiating Magistrate, bis face wreathed in smiles as he proudly reflected upon the important part he was to perform in thevent ; Mr. H. A. Bagg, Chairman of the Board of County Commissioners, "cocked and primed" for an hour of genuine humor; Messrs. Wm, M. Poisson and J. W. King, two other magnates of the county ; Mr. Geo. F. Alderman (not a city father); our noble Standard-keeper, Mr. Jno. W. Per dew, and the host and hostess, Mr. and Mrs. Savage.- About 7i o'clock Mr. Reid and Miss Hepsy Jane cam forward, when the officiating Magistrate, arising to the dignity of his high calling, pronounced the solemn words which were to bind the two together in the indissoluble bonds of matri mony, which was followed by the groom sa luting his bride, when all became seated be fore a repast of cake, etc. . which had been prepared by the hostess for the occasion. Wit and humor ran high and all went merry as a marriage bell," until suddenly all levity was hushed as the worthy chair man stepped forward, armed with what is so essential to every well regulated house hold a set of spoons and said, address ing the bride: "Mrs. Reid: A few of your friends are gathered here, and though hilarity may as sert itself, yet we hope we rightly appre ciate the marriage tie. Therefore, as a small memento, and not for its intrinsic value, coming as it does from a 'King' not wearing a crown, an 'Alderman' not in offi cial capacity, etc., we tender this little pre sent with best wishes for the future of your self and husband. Accept it, and may you be obedient in that which is right." After signing the marriage certificate, and a few congratulatory remarks, the party re entered their 'cabs" and started homeward, well pleased with the evening's entertain ment. The Prlneess and Suite Pass Through. The Vice-Regal party and suite arrived at the Front Street Depot yesterday morn ing, at 8 o'clock, in the handsome and ele- gant Puljman Palace Car fton, the pio- neer of that style of coaches recently in troduced on the Atlantic Coast Line, and which was described by us in a late issue of the Star. The party did not leave the car, and in fact, we understand, that they were the -most of their time engaged on their toilet, not even so much as deigning a superficial glance at our handsome city. They remained until about half past 9 o'clock, when, the whistle sounded and bur distinguished visitors were soon speeding their way to Charleston, where they are to take the British war-ship Dido for the Bermudas, where the Vice Regal party is to spend the remainder of the win ter. Mr. Alex. Sprunt, British Vice Con ul at this port, and a few other gentlemen were present, but failed to see. or speak with Her Royal Highness, the Princess Louise, or the Marquis of Lome. Mayor's Court. Thos. Black and Fanny Harrisofi, both colored, were arraigned on the charge of acting disorderly on the streets. They were let off on the payment of a fine of $2.50 and $2, respectively. Charles Clarkx, a Frenchman, employed at a sailor boarding house on the wharf, and Charles Cederet, a seaman, were called up to answer to the charge of fighting. Ce deret had his head . bandaged quite pro fusely, and the evidence went to show that during the scrimmage between himself and the Frenchman he received a severe bl ow on the head, causing him to lose a large amount of blood. The case was finally continued over until this morning in order to secure additional evidence, there being a suspicion that "brass knucks" were brought into requisition. One other trifling case was disposed of and Court adjourned. magistrate's Court. George Wilson, colored, was arraigned before Justice Millis, yesterday morning, charged with assault and battery . upon Kenyon Byrd, colored. , Judgment sus pended upon the payment of costs. Kenyon Byrd was next called upon to answer to; the charge of wilful trespass upon the premises of Eliza Sherrod. . De fendant submitted and judement was sus pended upon the payment of costs. George Wilson was arraigned on a peace warrant sworn out by Kenyon Byrd, and Was required to pay the costs and give bond in the sum of $50 to keep the peace for sixty days.
