VOL. XXXVI.--NO. 96.-
We heard Rev. Dr. Moore at, the
First Presbyterian church at night.
His7 morning sermon is represented
to us as being , specially fine. He
looks to be about 32 or 33 years of
age, is tall and slightly built. He
has an intelligent face, a fine head,
and a weak voice, but a pleasant one.
He did not use a cote as far as we
could perceive. His style is easy,
without marked mannerism or exces
sive gesticulation. He speaks readi
ly, felicitously and occasionally with
earnestness. He is not an orator,
but a very agreeable speaker. His
sermon at night was on Regenera
tion, and the text was the famous one
in John's Gospel and the interview
between the Saviour and the Jewish
teacher, Nicodemus. It was - the
best discourse on the subject we re
member to have heard. The intro
duction was extremely happy an
excellent lest of sermonizing. The
discussion was clear, cogent and of
sustained interest. The language
was colloquial. and easy, but scholar
ly and exact. In 32 minutes the
speaker packed away about as much
solid thought and illustration ag
many D. D.'s would be able lo get in
in an hour or perhaps a week. It was
not a great discourse, but a very
good one. The plan was simple and
yet exhaustive. Judging the gifted
and cultured, young North Caroli
nian by this one effort we should say
he was a man of marked promise,
was a ' thinker,, a reasoner and a
scholar.
The noble members of the new

Mayor Court. , v
The Mayor's levee yesterday morning
was quite largely attended, the attraction
being the trial of Edward Thomas, colored,
charged with acting , disorderly on Satur
day evening, and of Andrew Ross, colored,
for interfering with the arrest and ob
structing an officer in the discharge of his
duty. It seems that Mr. G. w. Thames,
clerk of the market, was asked for assistance
in getting Thomas out of a saloon near the
market house, where he was acting dis
orderly, and, not seeing, a policeman, he
took charge of the man himself, intending
to take him to the guard house or hand
him over to another officer for that purpose.
Thomas proved obstreperous, seized an, axe
helve, as if intending to use it on . Mr.
Thames, but put it down again, when
it was removed out v of his way, and
flnally.'succeeded in making his es
cape. ; He was v-OTbawjuehtly , arrested,
by Officer Bryan, and, in response to a
call from that officer's whistle, Sergeant
Bishop and Officer White came up. Thomas
told Officer Bryan - that he would go with
him or any one else except Mr. Thames,
whom he cursed and abused all the way to
the guard house, though he made no re
sistance! ' A large crowd followed the
prisoner to the lock-up, and Ross' offence
consisted in urging them on when the offi
cers tried to disperse them, saying "Come
on! Come on I I pay taxes for you fel-
ows to walk the streets. This is a free
country," etc. Passing a saloon, Thomas
asked to be allowed to get a glass of beer.
He was told by the officers that he could
not -have it while under arrest. Ross
slipped into, the bar room, got a glass of
beer and had it in the prisoner's hands be
fore the officers could prevent it, though
one of them tried to knock it out of his
hands, which he partially succeeded in do
ing. Some of the witnesses testified that
Ross used language of an incendiary and
riotous character. One witness also testi
fied that Thomas carried an open knife in
his hand. All agreed, however, that he of
fered no resistance on his second arrest,
and his good behavior in that respect light
ened the penalty imposed by His Honor,
which was only $5; while Ross was re
quired to pay $10.
Mary Higgins and Georgiana Neill,
charged with quarrelling and boisterous
conduct at a house on Fiont street, near
Ann, were fined $3 and $5 respectively.

After the sermon by the pastor, Dr. Taylor

lege to the young men of our city, especial
ly those of the Baptist faith, in the forci
ble and effective manner so characteristic
of him. Yesterday' he started around to
talk to the dots about the advantages of a
collegiate education, when he received a
hasty summons home to greet a prospec
tive student who had arrived there during
his absence.
Rev. Walter W. Moore, of the Union

The Military Kneampmentv
We have been asked to ! suggest and
think the idea a good one that the Wil
mington Light Infantry and Cornet Con
cert Band give a dress parade for the bene
fit of our citizens before proceeding to
Asheville next week.' Our people all feel
an interest in the. approaching encampment
and want to see the company, looking its
best before U starts; and especially do they
desire" to see it with full ranks. It will not
do for Wilmington, the largest city in the
State, to send a handful of men to repre
sent them in the grand encampment It Is
not often wr military go away from home
aad this will probably be the last
trip for some time to come; so it
is to be hoped that employers will
decide to throw no obstacle in the way of
such of the members as may be dependent
uron their permission to go. If to be
given at all it should be given at once, too,
in order that the commanding officer may
know how many, men he will be able to
carry with him.

Byers, was cleared from this port for Ham

BASE BALI.
' Henderson vs.' Seaside To-Day."
The Henderson team arrived unexpected-
y last night, ana win may me oeasiaes
this afternoon at 5 o'clock on their grounds.
They have with them Williams and Jacobs,
as fine a battery as there is in .the State.
Jacobs had the honor of striking out sev
enteen men in Raleigh last week, and is
now (known as the Wizard pitcher."
Williams has been here before, but his
playing at that . time . was not so good be
hind the bat ' , He has his own pitcher to
face now, and some fine work can be ex
pected. The Henderson boys are considered as
good' ball players as there are in the Asso
ciation, and many think they are on the
road to the championship. . . , ,
Mr Waddell's enforced absence from the
field to-day weakens the home team more
thafi it can well afford, and that clever
fielder will be missed by the spectator
well as by the players. . We hope he will
be well enough by Friday to take part in
the game against Raleigh.
The manager of the Seasides has issued
tickets complimentary to the visiting Fire
Department from, Newbern, and today
will be a big day at the ball grounds . The
Wilmington Fire Department will accom
pany their guests to the field, and we hope
they will all be entertained by a well played
game. The time for commencing to play
has been fixed at five o'clock, to enable
our citizens to see the Henderson boys
wield the ash , and we hope and know a
arge crowd will be in attendance. .
Abont Grapes.
The California varieties of grape vines
which Capt. 8. W. Noble introduced in his
vineyard - recently are doing nicely, and
some of them have good sized bunches of
grapes upon them, although they were
only grafted in the month of April. Capt
Noble thinks the soil here well adapted to
them and expects them to do as well here as
is California.
Some of Capt Noble's early varieties of
grapes are turning, especially the "Cham
pion," of which latter he will probably
have some in market in a day or two. They
are not so sweet as the later varieties, but
are very good, especially to those who are
'rape hungry."
Capt. Noble says the excessive rains have
seen against grapes, but his own are look
ing as fine as it would seem possible for
them to look, which he claims is owing,
first, to the entire adaptability of the soil
and climate; and, second, to the careful at
tention which has been bestowed upon
them. It is really wonderful to see the
profusion of large clusters which are hang
ing from all of the producing vines.
The business of grape culture is a fasci
nating one,' and we expect to sec it'oae- of
the most profitable industries of this' par
ticular section of the State.

The fishing at the Rocks has not been

at another time no one can get a bite. . A
