Louis Myers, and the "Morning Star," Capt Edgar Bear, played a game of, base ball yesterday' afternoon, which resulted in a score of . 9 for the former and 1 for the latter. Besides the morning services at the Front Street Methodist church, the ordi nance of baptism was administered to seven adults and one infant, fifteen persons were received into church membership, and the sacrament of the Lord's Supper admiflis tered to about three hundred persons, Sun day morning. Two able sermons, morn- ng and evening, were delivered by the Presiding Elder of the district, Rev. Paul Carraway, and the congregations were veryjlarge on both occasions. Narrow Escape from Being Killed by Docs. Mr. Wm. Dukes, night watchman at the W. & W. Railroad depot, was on his way home yesterday morning, between 6 and 7 o'clock, -and had reached a point on Third, between Brunswick and Bladen streets, when he was set upon by three ferocious dogs. The attack was so sudden and over powering that Mr. Dukes could offer but slight resistance. He was thrown to the ground, and the infuriated animals were tearing and biting the flesh of the unfortu nate man at a terrible rate, when, fortu nately, assistance opportunly arrived and the dogs were beaten off. It is believed that Mr. Dukes would have been killed by the ferocious animals but for the timely ar rival of help. . As it -was he was bitten through both hands and one of his wrists, and also badly bitten in the left leg and thigh. It is thought he will be laid up for some time with his wousds. -Wilmington could manage to worry along with a few less dogs. Sunday School Conference. In the programme of the Wilmington District Sunday School Conference of the Methodist Church, South, to be held at Magnolia, N. C May 29, 1885, as pub lished in the Raleigh Christian Advocate, we notice that Rev. Dr. Yates is announced to speak on "What Ought to be Taught in our Sunday Schools," and Herndon D.

The annual meeting of this Club was held"! as t night at the City Hall, and was one oi the most spirited and enthusiastic meetings that the Club has ever held. Seve ral new members were elected, and with the bright prospect which the Club has before it for the coming season, the already 'large ist of membership will be increased. The bllowing officers were elected for the en suing year: Commodore Pembroke Jones.' Fleet Captain Norwood Giles. Flag Captain W. L., Smith, Jr. Purser M. a Willard. Measurer G. D. Parsley. Governing Committee G. H. South, W. L. Parsley, H.M. Bowden. Marshal H. McL. Green. It was decided, if the necessary arrange ments can be perfected, to have a race in he river sometime in June, and that the Carolina Yacht Club, of Charleston, S. C, and the Savannah Yacht Club, of Savan nah, Ga., will be invited to participate in the same. If these Clubs can come over to this race it will be the finest thing in the order of yachting that this dub or Wil mington has ever seen, as not only the com petition between yachts from other Clubs, but the fact that three or four new yachts will be added to the fleet of the Carolina Yacht Club, in addition to the fleetyf fast yachts that it now has, which to their inches are equal to any in America, there will be the most hotly contested race that ever took place in these waters. Ailesed Ghostly Visitations. Considerable excitement has existed in the neighborhood of Second, between Han over and Brunswick streets, for several nights past, by what is claimed to be ghostly visitations. The apparition is said to appear at the house of Mr. James E. Padrick about 8 o'clock every night, and it is claimed to be the spirit of a Mrs. Car roll, who died in Bladen county some three years ago, and who left two children, one aged 16 aid the other about 8 or 9 years, who live with Mr. and Mrs. Padrick. The spirit only makes itself visible to these children, but the "voice" can be heard calling the children and directing their movements when "on duty." When the chil dren go into, the room in which the "ghost" always appears it commences throwing pillows and chips about promiscously, of ten striking persons. Sometimes the ghost ly presence makes itself felt in room where the company is assembled, according to the evidence of one of the males who was present Sunday night "She is in, your lap, now," remarked one of the mediums to a lady sitting among the visitors' in the parlor, "Yes, I feel her weight," replied the lady. Sunday night the programme was somewhat varied by the appearance of the "spirit", of the little child who died in the same house a year or so ago, but be longing to another family; Night ' after night curious people gather at the 'head quarters of the alleged .visitors from the spirit land. v fVeather Indications.

K.'McRae; who has "recently re turned from a visit North was Interviewed by a representative pf the Stab yesterday. CoL McBie said that he had been in New. York for two weeks of more, engaged in affecting a compromise of the. Matthews (Carolina Central Raflroad) litigation, and was glad to say that aUthe suits have been compromised. I : 'h ... . j .. . WW there be any oofl Effect on f WU- mingtout;'. 'j. ''' zi:-' Th etfect ought to H 'decidedly benefl- eiaL Thjs Carolina Ceatral Railroad is, properly; cooducV4' .t kxtl Wilmingto- road, with capacIrylSH&ft commerce through V& rich country, of which this ought to be the ocean outlet. By this compromise, the, new organization obtaias the sanction of tie large minority interests heretofore withheld, and there is a mutual contract th the road shall be operated in its own interests for the benefit of all its stockholders; the minority are admitted to two members of the Board of Directors, and the old pso rates of the Mur chison time are continued. This ought to bring more cotton here and return more through freight. The first mortgage bonds, already a first class security, will certainly be enhanced in value, aad the owners of these large blocks.of Income bonds are cer tainly interested that the road shall earn and pay income. - I think this community and all that part of the State on the line of this road are to be congratulated on the termination of these controversies. i You ask me about the business outlook in New York. I think It more favorable, notwithstanding the fluctuating phases of the war aspects in Europe keep up a fever ish excitement and retard the ordinary flow of enterprise. Most people think that a war between England and Russia, once be gun, will be long and general, and that this country will reap the benefits of furnishing the supplies. This 4s only one side. I think there is quite another side, and for my part I would rather see a natural and normal growth of prosperity than such as will be stimulated by a general war. Did you stop in Washington f Yes, I stopped in Washington, and saw some members of the Cabinet, Postmaster General. Vilas and Mr. Lamar, and also the President They are all working as hard as beavers and are doing the very best they can, and I think remarkably well for the party and country. . , . -I Did you see much evidence of discontent at the action or non action of the admin istration. - Some, yes, of course they who have not yet been reached in the service of the courses are 'Impatient, and getting to be sore headed, and they whose plates have been passed by are disappointed, hungry and mad. The administration is now navi gating its shallowest waters the distribu tion of the offices. It is .in no danger of shipwreck, "because the water is not deep enough, but the bottom will now and then, and pretty often, too, be rubbed, and both skill and caution are necessary to keep off the shoals and rocks. But the people at large are not taking on any powerful sight of bother about the offices. The truth is that while keeping strictly within the line of the party civil service platform and his own promises, Mr. Cleveland is moving faster than either Pierce or Buchanan, and the changes from Republican to Democratic incumbent are developing more rapidly than they did from Whig to Democratic under Mr. Pierce. We all remember, that his foreign appointments ran far Into the summer months.' Some mistakes have al ready been made under over-pressure. But these are no more conspicuous than some under Polk and Pierce and not to compare with many Republican blunders. You ask me what impression the Presi dent made upon me. Really, he makes but a single Impression on every one; and it is because be has no arts and no practices. He is an earnest, unaffected, straightfor ward, matter of fact man of business. He has strong limbs, a portly person, a big head and it full of brains. Whoever thinks he is not a great man and seeks an encoun ter with him on that idea will find himself unexpectedly in the hands of giant. He Is heavy featured and' rugged, but yet with a Napoleonic cast of countenance and an expression of general good nature and of great will. I shohjd say of him that in his convictions he is obstinate to the last de gree; unless the approaches are made on the amiable side of his disposition. I have seen - a great deal of official presentations end receptions in Washington since the days of Mr. YanBuren, and Mr. Cleveland compares favorably with the best of them in ease ' and dignity . of manner,' and in an imposing presence,, and surpasses most of them in graciousness and affability, and the White House looks more like the people had a property in i than it has since "Old Hickory" was Its oceupanC Our two SenatorsT Why certainly, both are on hand.' :As to each 's respective influ ence you know"c6mparisons are odorous. But those who know them , expect to see them reach results by obviously different -methods, t One by the sHaviter in moda,-the other Ixy the 4rttferji re. I saw Gov. Vance only for a moment, and then he was hard, bent on.7 towing Ham Jones Into the' Western Attorneyship, , and-, it is manif est from the favor shown' to his brother, the -General apd from Hale's getting the ini MAY1885. . .... --.-.rf- -j -- portant consulship to Manchester; that the Administration likes to keep the Governor in a good humor. Besides, Ransom gave niar efficient heh in both these matters. Anyfewho looks Tcan see that Gen. Ran som has close relations with the President and Cabinet, at once cordial- and confiden-1 tial, and ft is. well that it is so, for he is very conservative, and always a safe and wise counsellor,, and a true hearted North Carolinian. , ..,- . In the. short conversation which I had with the President he spoke with warmth of his interest in North Carolina, and said it' was both his hope and - expectation to pay our people a visit, and that before a great while. ."' ' I saw, too, Mr.. Randall, who Is also looking forward to visit North and South Carolina. I saw no Democrat who was. Inimical to Mr. Randall; oh the contrary, I teard on every side the expression of con fidence in his orthodox Demscracy,' and her i every where regarded as the, leader who Is to maintain-au defend 4be ii'ifitrs ,: tion . in the - House of Representatives. Having himself greatly contributed to the platform as it now stands, he is expected to be its prominent and faithful expositor in speech and action. -. Of our local matters I entertain a very decided opinion, but I disavow any posi tive, knowledge, for. I neither sought to know nor was anything said to me that was at all precise or positive. I am sure both the administration and our. represen tatives would like to see Wilmington har monize . on the applications, and if this were done the appointments would be ad vanced, I believe. - But if selections are to be made between - rivals, in my opinion there will be no great haste unless some official delinquency be alleged against the incumbents.. Without professing to know', I entertain no doubt that Mr. Robinson will be the collector. It would be very ex traordinary if the Lieut. Governor of the State should be refused the single favor he is asking, and that a local office for a citi zen of recognized worth. Do you think if the Lieut. Governor of New York, or Pennsylvania," or Massachusetts, were to plant himself on one single request for a favor that it would not be conceded to the office and the more so if the man also car ried weight ? I think this is the case as to the collectorship. I prefer not to say much of Dr. Warren's application for the Consulship to Paris, to be charged against North Carolina. It is ckeeky enough, in all conscience. I heard wonder expressed that he had Gov. Vance's recommendation. I don't wonder at it, be cause I know of ties between them that the present generation are not informed of. His late narrative on the "Fall of Raleigh and the Mission of Govs.' Swain and Gra ham" was intended as a service to Gov. Vanceanrl airhoughbe talked as though of his own knowledge with a glib tongue, there is in the- statement no more than a grain of f actfo a bushel of error. For ex ample he says, "We had passed beyond our own pickets and were proceeding to ful fill the mission upon which we were dis patched, when an order of recall was sud denly received from President Davis, who was then at Charlotte. This action of the President was no doubt based upon a seri ous misunderstanding of the purposes of the mission, and is doubtless the real cause of the present controversy." Now no order of recall or other order was received from President Davis. He was not then at Char lotte. He knew nothing of the mission and had no understanding or misunderstanding about it. Gen. Johnston sent the revoking order. He sent it on information which I furnished him, of the purpose of the com missioners, and the information was true. I have long ago, when all parties were alive, told the story to Mr. Paul C. Cameron, of Hillboro, and I have it in manuscript for the historian when the time comes. 1 suppose Gen. Johnston's attention has not been called to the matter or he would not let the case rest where the narrative puts it. I did hear that this application of the Bey's wasionly a feint to cover a real ap plication which he is making to the Mahdi for a Pachalich in the Soudan. But I suppose that this is a romance, like the "Fall of Raleigh." The Snop-Itlfters They Waive an Ex amination and are Remanded to Jail. , . Yesterday afternoon, about 3 SO o'clock, the six female shop-lifters, Mag. Fisher, Sophia Fisher, Ida Fisher, Mary Riley, Lizzie McNeill . and Jane Holden, were taken from the county jail and carried to the City Court Room in the City Hall, where it wad proposed to hold the examina tion. In the meantime an eager crowd had filled the court room to its utmost capacity, while the passage, the porch . and the adja cent streets were' thronged with people, all eager to get a sight of the alleged culprits, if they could hot hear the testimony.
