James Eppes. a South Carolina darkey,
was arrested yeeterdsy morning on the
chsrge of house-breaking and larceny. It
is alleged that he broke into the house of
Al. Mulligan. 00 the wharf, on Saturday
night last Mrs. Mulligan heard a noise in
the house and left her room with a light to
ascertain what it meant 8he encountered
a man in the ball. who immediately knocked
the light from her hand and escaped down
the stairs in the darkness and made his way
out of the house- Mrs. Mulligan had a
pistol In ber hsnd and fired at the re
treating form of the burglar, but
failed to bring him down. She says,
however, that she recognized him before
the light wss knocked from her hand and
that her visitor was none other than Jim
Eppes. A search warrant was issued, a
shanty car occupied by him was searched
and a shirt belonging to Mr. Mulligan was
found in the car. The shirt, however, was
not stolen on Saturday night but was
missing after a similar raid on the Mulli
gan premises on Thursday night last This
connects him with that robbery, and the
identification of Mrs. Mulligan will go far
towards connecting him with the burglary
of Saturday night Eppes is said to have
served a term in the South Carolina peni
tentiary, but we do not vouch for the cor
rectness ot the statement
The case was to have come up befere the
Mayor's Court yesterday morning, but was
continued for the Bute until to-day. In
the meantime Eppes occupies a cell in the
city prison.
A Waaelerer.
Yesterdsy a very dark complexioned for.
eigner, with a red cap on, something after
the style of those usually worn by Turks,
and with his baggage strapped to his back,
presented himself at the City Hall. He
could speak hut one word of English, and
that was "Jerusalem.' The Janitor at the
hall took him to the Rev. Dr. Mendelsohn,
under the impression that he was a Jew,
but here it wss found that he bore with
him a letter purporting to be written by
the Archbishop of Jerusalem, in which it
was stated that he was a Roman Catholic,
lie was thereupon directed to Rev. Father
Moore.
We subsequently Interviewed our swar
thy-faced friend, but of course could make
nothing out of what he said. We read bis
letter, however, which purports to be sign
ed by Rev. Pedro Paulo, Archbishop of
Jerusalem, and is in English. It states
that the bearer's wife and family were mur
dered by the rebels during the late war in
Egypt and that he had to flee the country;
that he is a devout Roman Catholic and a
good Christian, and commends him to the
good will of the charitably n disposed who
msy feel inclined to ski him and further
his cherished purpose of returning to
Egypt when peace shall have been restored
to the country. The letter also states that
be has relics from the tomb of our Saviour
for sale by which he hopes to realize some
funds. .

Wilmington Street Improvements.
We are glad to see our city authorities
paying so much attention to the condition
of the streets.- If those who used to plod
through the deep sand a few years ago,
even in most respectable and otherwise at
tractive localities, should return home now
after a protracted absence, they would find
quite a different state of affairs. In fact,
there are many, doubtless, who have been
right here at home all the time, who have
but a very imperfect idea of the amount of
work done in this direction, and of the
great improvement which it has necessari
ly caused. The old reputation which Wil
mington used to bear, of being "nothing
but sand hills," is no longer applicable to
ber. We are neither troubled with sand or
mud to any great extent, and in rapidity of
drying after even the hardest rains, our
streets can beat the world. '

dysentery and diarrhoea, regulates the stomach
and bowels, cures wind eolio, softens- the gums,
reduoes Inflammation, and gives tone and energy
