' , - " 5 ' ' Grant, in his article in the CeriA tury Magazine,! the battle of Shi-1 loh, says it rained hard on Saturday: night. ; There was not a drop fell on that night. On Sunday night it rained in torrents. .Grant represents himself as being hurt on Saturday; night before the battle begun, and' whjen it was rainingv .We heard him! say that he exposed himself in per-, 8on-mgr.e in the iiret day's fight than. he did in all the other battles of the ar, and that the only way he could keep his men up to. their work was by keeping himself right up to them. How could he have done this on crutches ? The victory of the British in the Soudan seems to have been a bril liant affair. Geh. Stewart was in command. An account says: "The Arabs made their attack in a tu multuous rush, directed principally upon the side of the square held by the "hussars. This side of the square was broken at one time during tne fight, and the officers attri bute this disaster to the' unruly conduct of the camels, which got powder-burned and became unmanageable.. The line was speed ily reformed and the discipline of the men was splendid. . . ''Throughout the action, a steady and deadly fire was kept un by the hussars and mounted infantry, while the artillery main tained an enfilade fire which piled the dead Arabs up in heaps. 'The space in front of the British' right flank was a. veritable slaughter : pen, and when the Arabs were finally repulsed they left 800 of their number dead on 5 the field. The number of their wounded who were able to inarch or be carried from the field is estimated at 2,000. 'Most of the casualties on the British side occurred during the break in the line of the hussars. " ' Many Americans regret the - death of the gallant Col. Burnaby in the late Egyptian battle. He was born in 1842, and he was both a well ed ucated and dashing soldier. A sketch of him in the N. Y. World says: "Capt. Fred Burnaby had already seen a great deal of the world when, in 1875, ; he astonished Europe and gained rank among the most famous of modern travellers by his daring exploration of Central Asia. ' The importance of his exploit was greatly enhanced by the fact that England, and all Europe, in fact, was greatly disturbed by the Eastern question and the suspicions aroused by the progress ot Russian arms towards Britain's Indian empire. The light shed by Capt. Burnaby on the. nature of the mysterious region he penetrated and, the dashing charm of his style made the' narrative in which he described his "Ride to Khiva" at once one of the most impor tant and fascinating books of travel pub lished in our time. He was feted every where, : became a greater favorite in so ciety than ever, publishers' sighed for his favors and he was promoted from the rack of Captain, to that of Major and sub-' sequently to that of Lieutenant-Colonel of. the "Blues" which latter he held at the time of his death." , , Spirits Turpentine ; The Governor has issued his proclamation offering $200 reward for the ; arrest and delivery to the sheriff of Pitt county, of Needham Whitley, murderer of Wm.

Just as the cat seemed to be poised over the burning mass she was struck fairly in the, breast by the stream from the engine, which knocked her about twenty feet and just out of the 'reach of the .flames. She left the scene quickly, a. wet but happy cat. . Raleigh Visitor? In accordance with the programme, a reception and ball, complimentary to Governor Scales, took place at Tucker Hall last night. - At about 9 o'clock Governor Scales, Mrs. Scales, and the young ladies of the party took their po sitions at the foot of the. stage, surrounded by ex-Governor Jarvis and a number of dis tinguished gentlemen. The reception lasted, until 9.15, during which His Excellency re ceived the congratulations of a large num ber of ladies and gentlemen. Nearly all of the members of the Senate and House of Representatives were present, besides distin guished citizens from different sections- of the State. Af ter the reception the ball com menced, and was perhaps one of the most brilliant affairs of the kind that ever took place in our city. Among the ladies of Gov. , Scales' party who participated we mention the names of Misses Katie Scales, Mary. Galloway, Jennie Galloway, Clara Caldwell, .Daisy Donnell, Jennie Scales and Mrs. Bethel. New Berne Journal; The river Neuse, which in the Indian language means "The River of Peace," takes its rise in the northwestern part of Wake county, and is formed by the confluence of three streams at one point, to-wit: The Eno, Flat river, and Little river. With its tribu taries it has a length of 825 miles, and drains an area of 5,000 square miles. The fall to New Berne is 840 feet See Pro fessor W. C. Kerr's Geological Report for the year 1875. -On our editorialpage will be found an article from Mai. W. A. Hearne, on the condition of lights, beacons and buoys in North Carolina waters. He treats the subject with remarkable clear ness; points out many needed improve ments and asks the people to demand of their representatives in Congress the con sideration they are entitled to in providing for coast and inland water navigation. In speaking of the needs of stakes and buoys in Core sound he seemingly charges neglect upon the buoy tender in this district. The tender was in this pott last week and the Captain informed us that he was going to Washington in a few days and take in fit ments for Core sound and Beaufort harbor, and that he would remain in the North Carolina waters until all necessary work was complete. ... -Raleigh 1 Neios- Observer: Mr. VfL D. Egerton, of Louisburg, sold in the Raleigh market yesterday a large lot of to bacco at $80. Good for Raleigh and good for Franklin, county tobacco planters. Last night quite a number . of the public buildings and stores were illuminated, in compliment to Gov. Scales. The scene on Fayetteville street was a pretty one Yesterday morning the officers and em ployes of the A. & N.C. Railroad, through Col. John D. Whitford, its president, pre sented Gov. Jarvis with a magnificent watch, chain and seal, the former of North Carolina gold; the latter a North Carolina gem. At noon in the Treasurer's office Gov. Jarvis presented Treasurer Worth with a very handsome gold-headed cane. The cane was given by Messrs. D. W. Bain and H. M. Cowan, so long clerks in the Treasurer's office. The presen tation was an impromptu affair; and Treasurer Worth was taken by surprise. , No less than twenty loads of Gran ville tobacco were on thei floor. The averages were all good. The highest prices were: J. M. Beck. $60; Jerry Allen. $45; H. T. Coley, $45; Askew & O'Brien, $47.50; J. R. O'Brien, $65; Matthew John son, $62; Allen & Clay, $37.50; C. F. Beck, $60; a H. Beck, $65.- Air these were from Granville county. The Bridges, of Wake, made sales at $60. The tobacco, taken altogether, was the finest ever seen here.

A previous item, mentioning the sickness of Mr. Adkins, was an error of the types. Fire is generally conceded to be a very desirable thing to get close to in cold weather; but with the thermometer away below the freezing point, yesterday morning, there seemed to be a very great disinclination to revel in its genial glow at the corner of Second and Hanover streets. Tne Fire kesterday BforntnK At the unseasonable hour of half past 8 o'clock, yesterday morning the alarm of fire was sounded for the first district (north of the railroad), which was found to have its origin in the frame dwelling next north of the northeast corner of Second and Hano ver streets, owned by Mr. M. Rathjen and occupied by colored people, which was en tirely consumed. The flames communi cated to the building on the corner, also owned by Mr. Rathjen, and burned the roof, besides badly damaging the building, generally. Owing to the intense Cold the firemen had a difficult and unpleasant time of it, some of them having their clothing frozen upon their persons, while tags of ice were pend ent from their hair and whiskers. . The trees in the vicinity, upon which water had been thrown, presented a dazzling specta cle, as the light from the fire reflected upon the frozen particles in which they were ensmEed. T"ciothTngTSnieI6 fiyenr 'was fra??n stiff, and when he got home his coat could stand alone. To turn out on such a morning and ran to a fire is enough to test the devotion to duty and power of endurance of almost any fireman and' show what sort of stuff he is made of. The building first destroyed was insured for $400 and the one on the corner for $800; both in the Wilmington Mutual, represented by Mr. J. Kent Brown. The County Poor Honie. Visitors to.jheTJtainty Poor House, near this city, are at once struck with the per fect cleanliness which pervades; the. whole establishment including houses and grounds. The buildings are all kept neatly whitewashed, the floors scoured, and the grounds swept. 'No rubbish or garbage is allowed to accumulate anywhere. The larder is also kept well supplied with the best of meat, flour, meal, hominy, etc and the parishioners, of which there are quite a number, are well fed and as contented as people in their condition can be.

Chief of Police Brock -notified Dr. F.W. Polterthe county physician; who called to see the wounded man; and subsequently Mayor Hall visited him and took; his7 affidavit Turner stated that he was on his way home from a lodge meeting and had reached the neighborhood of his house,' when he suddenly discovered jPrtyiof a , dozen' or more , 'men, 'yi:'osei'whom: he, waa hailed." ,Ee pswered the man with the same ' word used-by him- "hello" when the men com; menced firing upon him, one of the balls striking him in the upper part of the thigh. He then ran and hid himself in the bushes, and never ventured to enter the house until daylight yesterday morning, fearing that if he did so he would be killed. He also stated that some shots were fired at the house after he had concealed himself. - Dr. Potter examined the wound and says that it i not necessarily dangerous, though the ball is in such a position , that it cannot now be reached. Turner positively swore that he knew the man who shot him to be Charles Geyer, a prominent colored man and 'a leader in the colored Labor TJcion organi zation. A warrant based upon his affidavit to that effect was issued by Mayor Hall, and Chas. Geyer was subsequently arrested, and required to give bond in the sum of: $400 for his appearance before him :(tae Mayor) is his capacity as a justice of the peace, as soon as Turner is able to be pre sent and testify. Turner is well known, and that fact, to gether with the prominence of the accused, and especially his connection with the Labor Union organization, of Which the wounded man . is said to be not a member, will combine to make the case one of more than ordinary interest Weather Indications.
