Because Mr. Gladstone did not die under the abuse of the British bnt went to the theatre j and langhed, some of the papers are greatly shock ed.

Gov.' Scales will pay a visit to the New Orleans Exposition.

Goldsboro Messenger; The Mes senger has always expressed the opinion that the office of State Geologist is one of great importance to North Carolina. Another brigade of tramps are "doing up" the city and, vicinity. Pneumonia seems to be on the increase in, this, com munity. There was a scene of great grief and wild ; demonstration at the depot here last Monday afternoon. A colored woman, with a small child in her arms, bought a ticket to Faison's and got aboard the south bound train, but she had hardly gotten into the car when she discovered that she had lost her ticket. Leaving her child upon a seat she rushed out to search ' for the missing "pass" in the ticket office. While there the train moved off and left her. The antics of that mother at this Stage of the proceedings were awful to behold. At 2 o'clock the other morning a Goldsboro man was making an ineffectual search for the keyhole,- when his wife heard him: "Is that you, Hubby J" she called in a meaning voice. "Yes, love," ( he answered in a thick response. "Why dont you come in ?" "Somebody's pulled the door knob through the keyhole, and I can't; or they'ye pulled the keyhole out with a corkscrew and -run off with It, or -." But bis theory, was blighted in the blossom by her suddenly reaching out of the door and towing him in by his am brosial locks, and feeling for his phre nological bumps with a chair leg. - Monroe JEkquirer-Express: Mn J acob Helms,' s who Hyes near Pleasant WILMINGTON, Grove camp - ground, tells us that . a few days ago his boys cut down an oak tree, and found, twenty-five feet from the ground, in a hole which had been pecked in die tree by birds, four Bun perch, each six inches long. "Two of them were alive. There was no water at all in the hole. The fish were probably carried there by some bird, from a creek about half a mile dis tant. The fish lived for several hours after the tree was cut down; which is rather re markable. There is no abatement in the mortgage business. The man who gives a ' mortgage to secure supplies, as a general thing, pays 50 percent, more for them than if he had the money. Thomas Ghent and- Samuel Roberts got into a ' quarrel about a horse trade in Lancaster village, on the 2ndinst. when Roberts stabbed Ghent in the left breast, inflicting a wound from Which he (Ghent) died on Friday evening, the 6th instant. Mr; Britton Parker, of Buford town ship, is 80 years of age. Mr. Parker owns a Berkshire boar, 3 years old, which for a year or more has been .very vicious, and he has been compelled t carry large' stick to defend htaself from its- aasa at tacks. On last Saturday evening Mr." Parker met the hog in the lane without his stick and was attacked by it The hog threw hint down and cut three terrible gashes, each about four inches long, in his right side, and One of his ribs was torn loose from the breast bone; a terrible gash, three inches long, was also cut in the left thigh. The hog then desisted and walked off a few feet, when Mr. Parker managed to crawl to the gate, which was but a few feet distant, and had just got inside and shut it when the hog again made a rush for him.

The magistrates are not doing much in their line this week. Three white tramps were lodged at the station house Thursday night. . A dime party was given at No. 316 North Second street last night, for the benefit of the poor. The temperature, according to the Star thermometer, was about station ary all day yesterday at about 39. To-day is St. Valentine's Day, and the windows of the book and news Stores are decorated with specimens of the comic order. Yesterday was one of those days you read about, and which are described under the significant apellations of dark, drizzly, dismal and dirty. "Tramp! Tramp! The Boys are Rlarcb Inc! " The army of tramps is still moving Southward. Their name seems to be 1 Legion. The more you think they are done coming, the more they come the faster, so to speak. The last batch we hear of in this city is composed of boys, from about twelve to sixteen years of age, who are beg ging from house to house , in the "daytime. What they are doing at night is another thing. Nobody knows. They claim to come from Texas, but our informant says they speak the. Northern dialect to perfec tion. He can't be fooled on that. They may be honest tramps, and up to no mis chief; but it is the part of prudenceto keep an eye on them. In Savannah there is an absolute reign of terror on account of tramps, who infest the suburbs in large numbers and are committing numerous robberies and other depredations. Criminal Court. There were only two cases tried in the Criminal Court yesterday. Sam King was tried and convicted of. assault and battery and sentenced to thirty days in the County Hduse of Correction. The case of Tom Whitfield, a colored man of some prominence, charged with breaking into the store of Mr. J. M. Hard wick some time in December last, occupied the remainder of the day. and created con siderable interest, especially among the col ored population, to whom he is well known. , Mr. Marsden Bellamy appeared for the defence and Mr. F. H. Darby pros ecuted for the State. A verdict of guilty was rendered in this case, and Whitfield was sentenced to seven years in the State penitentiary. Our Criminal Court. A gentleman who has just returned from Raleigh says it is the opinion there that the Judiciary Committee will report favorably on the proposition to establish a criminal circuit, to be composed of the counties of New Hanover and Mecklenburg. - . As adding weight to this opinion it may be mentioned that the Senate has already passed & bill creating twelve districts or cir cuits, and as the majority report of the Ju diciary Committee recommended thirteen, it is reasonable to infer that our proposed criminal circuit is to make the thirteenth. Find the Remain of An Unknown Colored Infant Some one in the northeastern suburbs of the city, beyond the site of the old Union depot, on Thursday evening, discovered a spot where the ground looked to have been freshly disturbed, and upon investigation. a small box was discovered ah inch or two be neath the . surface, which, upon being opened, was found to contain the remains of a newly, born colored infant Coroner Jacobs was notified aod'had the corpse properly buried, V N. CI SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 1885; RAILROAD i. - jiniho BOOM. Arrangements at tne Front Street De pot fr tne Entertainment and Com - fort of the Travelling- Public. ' The Railroad Dining Room at the Front street depot of the Wilmington & Weldon Railroad is now in full blast. The room has been fitted up in fine style, being hand somely papered and wainscotted. Around the room, with but short spaces between them, are hung a number of fine and valu able pictures from the gallery of Mr. . W.' F. Walters, of Baltimore, a stockholder in and Vice President of the Wilmington & Weldon Railroad Company. Among these tho most noticeable are the cele brated "Forum," of Rome; the "Colis eum," of Romer the . "Castle of St Angelo," of Rome; the "Basilica Di S. Moaco; "SC Peter's." of Rome :th " Grand Canal,'1 of Venice, etc." The tables are all of good size and four in "number, each of which is elaborately furnished with elegant silverware and all the necessary conve niences of a first-class hotel. Then there is a lunch counter extending the length of the room at one side, from which parties are furnished with anything in the way of a lunch they may call for. The culinary de partment is looked after by . Mons. Marius Becheras, a French cook of celebrity, who has served in Geneva, Paris, New York and other large cities. Capt. Henry W. Fisher, of Richmond, a gentleman of fourteen years' experience in the business ' of hotel keeping, is in charge of the estab lishment, and will doubtless prove an ac commodating and popular caterer to the travelling public who pass through Wilmington.,-. He assures us that bis arrange ments contemplate the accommodation of from one hundred to one hundred and fifty persons. His supplies come from Lindsay, of Richmond, "celebrated for the fineness of his meats, etc. Mayor' Court. The only case for the consideration of Mayor Hall yesterday morning was that of Anthony Poisson, colored, charged with acting disorderly Thursday on Nutt street, for which he was arrested and locked up by Officer S. H. Terry. He was finef$3. For the Star. A LIVING ISSUE. Mb. Editor: While the citizens of our city are casting about for some one to serve them as Alderman for the next ensuing term, I suggest as a living issue, one which every citizen who has the good of the city and the health of his own and his neigh bor's families at heart, that the Water Works Company should be compelled to furnish wholesome water for all domestic uses, as they agreed to do by the terms of their contract; or, else, repudiate the entire transaction. I regard this as the most im portant measure that has been pre sented to our citizens for their considera tion for twenty years past, because it con cerns the health and lives of every one living here. The water has been pro nounced by the Board of Health as unfit for domestic purposes, and it is the opinion of almost every one who is not financially interested, and who has tried the experi ment, that it is not healthy for drinking or culinary purposes. If it is necessary that there should be a fight about this matter, I hope we will take the '.'bull by the horns" now. Yours, truly, J. C. Stevenson. Quarterly nesting.
