These facts caused ereat ex citement and! all acquainted personally wun me iacts oelleve JenKlns was in a trance, or that animation was apparently suspended, and that he was net really dead when buried, and that he returned to con sciousness only to find himself buried and beyond help." Here is a warning. Gen. W. W. Loring, a native of North Carolina,, we believe, in an in terview by the New York 2Vmea,felt confident that things were not as bad with the British as sensational ru mors made them. He thought that Lord Wolseley would fall back down the Nile probably aa far as Cairo, and would in the Fall go up the Bed Sea to Suakin and make the attempt by that route. He said: "It was a irreat mistake that he did not begin there in the first place. Had he done so he would in all probability have been in Khartoum by the middle of November. It is my belief that a narrow gauge railroad could be built for him in England which his troops could put down on the road to Berber almost as rapidly as they could march. 1 "If Lord Wolseley does intend to re move his camp further down the river and , postpone operations until Fall, he must as suredly do so before April. The Nile is sinking rapidly. ! It would be a terrible or deal for the British soldiers to remain at Korti or thereabouts all summer. The ex treme heat and never ceasing glare of the sun would kill many of them. But another source of danger to them is the Khamsin, a sultry wind which frequently arises during the spring and summer, usually lasting two or three days at a time. The air is so thick from a fine dust that blows in from the desert that it is often impossible for a man to see ten steps ahead of mm. Gen. Loring served several years in the Khedive's army, and is well posted as to Egypt and the Soudan. It is now only too apparent Red Tapeism and; Incompetency killed Gen. Gordon. :If Wolseley had gone by the Suakin route the great hero would now be living. Delay is what murdered the Christian hero. As early as the 14th of December he in formed Wolseley that Khartoum was besieged on three sides, and that the - flghtieg was --carried- on day and night, but that El Mahdi's men could not take the city except by starving out the garrison. Gen. Gordon also instructed the messen ger sent from Khartoum on Decem ber 14th to deliver the following message to Lord Wolseley: "Don't scatter your troops. Bring plenty of troops. The enemy is numerous. . The Mahdi's works are within rifle shot. The Mahdi lives beyond gun shot. Come quickly. Don't leae Berber in y onr rear.. Keep the ene my in your front." Spirits Turpentine Newton Enterprise: A fearful onslaught has been made on rabbits this week. We have heard of one man who caught thirty-eight on Monday.

Deatb of Edward Kidder, Eq. Our city is again called upon to mourn' ihe loss of one of its oldest and most valua ble citizens. Last night; at 10 o'clock, in the1 fullness of years, after an active and suc cessful, business career, Edward 1 Kidder passed from earth and has been gathered to his fathers. Another landmark has been re moved and another link that bound the present generation" to the past has been broken. . ' Mr. Kidder was not a native of Wilming ton, but was born in New Ipswich, New Hampshire, October 19th, 1805, and, conse quently, was in the eightieth year of his age. He came to Wilmington in 1826, when he was just twenty ne years of age, and this has ever since been his home. He mar ried the daughter of the late Capt. Gilbert Potter, of this city and leaves sons and daughters to mourn .bis departure; his wife having preceded him to the grave about fifteen years ago. During the first years of his life in Wil mington he was engaged in the commis sion business with his brother, under the firm name of F. & E. Kidder, which was dissolved after a year or two by the removal of Mr. F. Kidder to Boston. He then formed a business' connection with Dickinson & Morriss, under the style of Dickinson, Mor. riss & Kidder, but becoming dissatisfied he soon withdrew and connected himself with his father-in-law, Capt. Potter, in the steam saw-mill business, and in th.at business was continuously engaged to the present time, and in which he was eminently successful. ; The two. most striking qualities in his character were his indomitable energy and his strict integrity; the former enabling him to triumph over every difficulty and compel success to crown his efforts; the latter, through a life of four score years, unim peached and unimpeachable. His word was as good as his bond, for his high sense of honor needed no legal form to make his obligations binding, and what ever he said he would do, that .he did. For nearly sixty years he has been identi fied with the home of his adoption, and has given freely of his abundance to every well directed scheme that might increase its prosperity or develop its resources. To him more than to any other one man are we indebted for the establishment of water works for our city, which was undertaken when he had passed, by some years, the period assigned by the Psalmist as the limit of manly life, and when most men desire rest and repose. But he was active, ener getic and enterprising to the last; a public spirited citizen of enlarged experience and sound judgment, who formed his own opinion upon matters and things, and had what so few possess, the courage of his convictions. The death of such a man is a loss to the community, for we need just such a man at all times; but we scarcely realize their value until they are taken from us. The death of Edward Kidder creates a vacuum, not only in his bereaved house hold, of which he was the honored and endeared head, but in society, in business circles, 'and among all classes. His home was the seat of an elegant and profuse hospitality; he was chari table, but without ostentation, ever ready to lend a helping hand to the deserving, and distributing his bounty freely to the poor and destitute. He was a true man in all the relations of life as husband, father and friend and dying at the ripe age of fourscore years leaves behind the precious legacy of an irreproachable life. Onr Criminal Court. The Board of County Commissioners, at a called meeting, drew the following jurors to serve at the first term of the new Criminal Court,which convenes on the third Monday in March, which falls this year on the 16th. and at which, thanks to the "powers that be" at Raleigh, His Honor Judge O.

Scanlan played , last night to a. very fair audience an'd gave the greatest satisfaction. "The Irish Minstrel" was warmly re ceived, and Mr. Scanlan, as Larry O'Lynn, the Irish Minstrel, was encored repeatedly. Mr, Turner, as Morris Cregan, and Mr. James, as Matt Dongan, were excellent, and the audience were most lavish in their ap plause of them. The play was interspersed with 'such songs as "My Nellie's Blue Eyes," -"The Irish Minstrel," "Peek-a-Boo,"&c, by Mr. Scanlan, who rendered them in a nfost pleasing.manner. "Peek-a-Boo" was most especially enjoyed, and the house, cheered him again and again during this songj v The entertainment last night was most enjoyable, and Mr. Scanlan has reason to be proud of his success. magistrate's Conrt. Lyna Calhoun, the colored girl who was arrested under the vagrant act in order that she might be turned over to her father, a hand on one of the Fayetteville boats, was taken out yesterday and given her choice by Magistrate Hill, to go with her father or go to the county jail for thirty days. She chose a prison cell in preference to a home with her father, although it was in evi dence that she had been well treated by him.; and she was therefore remanded to jthe lockup. Allen Calhoun, father of the above, was arraigned before Justice Millis on the charge of slandering Mary Hartley, color ed, but was adjudged not guilty and dis charged. Personal.- Capt. A. C.
