This fact reduces the importance of ihe President ro tern, of the Senate. I Louisville, 'Kt., Dec. 2. Charlotte "Wickliffe, colored, died here to-night, aged 117. She has 15 living children, tne oldest nearly a hundred years old, and . 60 grand children. She claims to have handed Gen. Washington a cup of water at the battle of Torktown. Exchange. , ; , : She was quite a baby to the old negro we saw in Wilmington a few years ago who was well acquainted with Christopher Columbus. North Carolina is still ahead. j reports that in ten years the average longevity has exceeded all former years. ' For England and Wales the rate was. 21.27 in the 1,000, which is a considerable gain." The death rate of Wilmington, including both races, has not exceeded 20 in the 1,000 in ten years but one. It has been as low as 16 or 17. ; - -- They are discussing in Washing ton who shall be Jhe Democratic Dorainee for the 'Presidency of the: Senate.- Seuator Ransom is next to the oldest Senator in length of eer rice. The Washington correspon dent of the Charleston "Ifetoa & Cou rier writes on Dec. lst:: " f "If 'Senatorial courtesy: should prevail, Eli Saulsbury, of Delaware, or MattW. Ransom, of North Carolina.1 would be en titled to the exalted position because of seniority in point of service in the Senate. 8auhbury entered the Senate in 1871, and Ransom the year following. Both of these gentlemen have served their respective States faithfully and evidently satisfactori ly, bat their most ardent admirers admit that they are hardly capable of filling the vacancies caused by the absence of Lamar, Bayard and Garland." j ?

The special weather bulletin for November, sent out by the Signal Bu reau," says that in the northern portion of the South Atlantic States there was an ex cess or one inch of rainfall and in the Southern portion the deficiency is from one to three inches. HOBearlHi Fara-Laborcn. A gentleman who has put himself to some trouble to inform himself on the sub ject tells us that farmers who have tried Hungarians as farm laborers in Eastern Virginia are very much pleased with both the men and women. The prices paid, be says, vary from $10 to f f2 for men and $6 to $8 per month and board for women. If worked alongside of negroes they do not do so well. When worked to themselves they are far superior to the present labor of the South. The papers have been speak ing of the exodusof negroes from this State to Arkansas.- There appears to be a ten dency of the Hungarians to come south from Eastern Pennsylvania, notably Read ing, Pa. 1 Those interested should confer with our State Immigration Commissioner with a view to supplying a great need on the farms. .. ""' "j j-t ""i ." peratie "A Mountain Pink' will be presented at the Opera House here on the 9th and 10th ihsts. The story of the plot is a very pret ty little romance, with the usual amount of love and dramatic situations. There are moonshiners and abducted girls and South ern planters, with a villian and a hero. The play runs along very smoothly and is full of . interest .from .beginning' to end. Miss Bella Moore, the. pretty little star, is said to remind one at once of Annie Pix ley, and of Lotta at times.: Her play, is said to be exceedingly natural, 'she is pret ty and possesses a full melodious voice. The play is full of good situations .and' highly interesting from beginning to end. - ' Tb SUne-Shos Nuisance. '.v A colored woman with a little girl who had her head bandaged was at the City Hall-yesterday.) afternoon, -to make com plaint against a lot of boys ,w ho assemble on Fifth street,' near Wooster, and annoy the' neighborhood ' with those dangerous nuisances called "sling-shots. " The child had af severe wound on the back of her head caused by one of the missiles. People living in other parts of the city complain of the same annoyance, and the Chief of Po lice is determined to put a stop to it. s CompllmeBMry German. A german was given Friday night last by young gentlemen of, this city, complimen tary to a number, of. young ladies visiting friends here-Miss Branch of Wilson, Miss Jeanie Williams of Fayette ville, Miss Grgy of Greensboro,. Miss Flemming of Savan nah,' "and Miss. .China of ! Sumter, S. O..

A Sllsbt Tooeb of a. Storm that Pre , f - s - i vailed on the middle Atlantic coast. . The gale that began here at anearly hour yesterday morning was heralded by the Signal-Bureau-ordering tipjthe warning signal at 5.40 p. m.j Friday, for severe storm that would extend over the Middle Atlantic and ITewEnglano' States ?1on Sat urday. --.The blow;. began - here , about one o'clock In the- morning, promptly on time, and continued with unabated severity until daylight, the highestvelocity being twenty seven miles an hour;' -- '-- r , j - After $ a.- m. the -wind moderated, grad ually changed direction "from southwest to northwest, and the ..temperature .began to fall, rthus verifying another prediction of the Signal Bureau, which, at 12.45 a, m. telegraphed" 'Hoist cold, wave aignaU The .temperature will fall from fifteen to twen ty 'five degrees by Sunday morning.'' 1 And fall it did, for at 6 a. .m. yesterday the tem perature was sixty -Tour degrees, at 2 p. m. it had fallen to fifty degrees, and at 9 p. m, to forty-two degrees. The cold-wave sig nal a large white flag with a red centre was not displayed at the office' : here," be cause the storm signal was up. ' The storm . caused but little damage in the city. . The barque Hattie B., lying in the stream nearly opposite Ann street dock, dragged her anchors and was driven againBt the wharves above Orange street. She sus tained no injury, however, and later in "the day proceeded down the river to Smith ville.'' 7 ' . At Smithville, the velocity of the wind was thirty-six miles an hour. No damage was done to the shipping in the harbor or to property on shore. , The schooner Rebecca H. Queen went ashore during the night at Bay beach, near New Inlet, in a bad position, and it was feared, would be a total loss. At last ac counts she had five feet of water in her hold. The schooner is from New London, Conn., for Savannah, Ga., with a cargo of guano. Her captain came up last night to make arrangements for a tug to go to the assistance of his stranded vessel. . s- North of Wilmington! . alone the coast, the gale was probably more severe. Com munication with Hatteras was broken by the storm and no intelligence could be had from that point. Sailing of missionaries. We see from the Richmond papers that special farewell services were held in that city last Sunday night in honor of eleven missionaries sent out to foreign - lands by the Baptists of the South. A part of them are going to Brazil, the rest to China. . Of those going.to China are Rev. D. W. Jler- ring and wife, and Rev. R. T.w Bryan and wife, who are from this part of North Car olina. Mr. Bryan wili join Dr. M. T. Yates, who has been at Shanghai for forty years and who is also from this State. Mr. Her ring will take the station at Sou-Chow, about 60 miles from Shanghai. They will sail on the 12th inst. from San Francisco and the Board of Foreign Missions asks that that day, Saturday, be a day of specia prayer in their behalf. The KlTer. Latest advices from Fayetteville report five feet of - water on the shoals and the river falling. The steamers Hutchison and Hurt were the latest arrivals here; the Hurt getting in Friday evening and the Murehi son yesterday morning. The latter tied up during the heavy blow Friday night, Both boats left for Fayetteville yesterday with fair freights. Fire Alarm. The Fire Department turned out in a hurry yesterday at one p. m., in answer to an alarm for a fife on Third between Orange and Ann streets. It was in a new building in process of construction for Mr. Wm. Latimer, in a pile of shavings in one of the rooms. The fire was put out without much difficulty , and the services of the de partment were not required. Religions Notice. ; Dr. Pritchard asks every member of the First Baptist church to he present at the mornine service to-day. At 7.80 p. m., he will preach the fifth of a series of sermons to women his subject being 'Rebecca, the Managing Woman." Ger. barque jlfoazrt, Geruldsen, cleared from London Dec. 3rd for this port.

Few knew him inti mately outside of his immediate family, for he was of a singularly modest and retiring nature. He shunned displays of all kinds and while oth ers sought for pleasure in the excitement of politios or the speculative business of every-day life, he found his happiness in the domestic cir cle and In the association of intimate friends, lie belonged to one of the old families of the Cape Fear section, a lineal descendent of Gene ral Brown, of Rerolutionary fame. He was edu cated at Brown University, Rhode Island, and after leaving college ohose the profession of a oivil engineer, and was engaged in railroad busi ness in Western North Carolina until the break ing out of the civil war. He at once enlisted in the Confederate service, but was subsequently appointed a Lieutenant in the Engineer Corps where he remained until captured a few months before the end of the war. He belonged to the army' of .Northern Virginia, whioh speaks suffi ciently for bis military record. When the war ended he returned to Wilmington and resumed the practice of his profession, was City Engineer for a number of years, and held the position at the time of his death. -- He was a quiet, Inoffensive citizen, unostenta tious in manner, never meddling with the affairs of others, bat attending strictly to his own. He was courteous and kind-hearted, particularly to those in the humble walks of life with whom he had business relations; and while - frank in the -expression of his views and principles, he was at all times scrupulously regardful of the opin ions of others.-. -- - - - - : As a husband and father he was kind and af fectionate and very domestio In his habits; as a friend, he was true and reliable: a member of St. James' Chnroh, he strove to live up to the reli gioos principles he professed, and in his last mo ments was comforted and sustained by that faith which he had professed in his early man hood, and went down to the grave in the joyous hope of a blissful Immortality.

Two weeks ago we advertised that we were going to offer our stock at REDUCED PRICES, and we meant every word we said. We did not intend to try to excite and noteatisfy.but intend ed to show every customer that we were selling Clothing cheap. The prices on some goods are so low that nearly every one comments on their cheapness One gentleman from the country came in yes terday and sild: "I have seen that you advertise some bargains in Clothing, and I want to see now what you are doing." We did not take up mow than five minutes of his time before he ex claimed, "Well, Clothing is cheaper than I ever saw it before, and I will take a suit of that," al luding to the one we had in hand, "if you can suit me." A little boy was delighted with a nice pair of Casslmera Pants we sold nim for a dollar, and so it was with every one who bought of us. We have only a few more weeks to sell Wioter Suits in, and we have determined to make our 6 toes go in that time.
