The woman im mediately went to the City Hall and procured a warrant for the arrest of the boy, who at first emphati cally denied tbe theft, but con fessed his guilt on his arrival at the station house. Several efforts to recover the watch proved fruitless, and the boy was then locked up for a hearing to-day. About 11 o'clock last night a white woman carrieu tne waten xo ine City Hall.

Ia a If ataaell. The dimensions of the Onslow rail road matter are about as follows: There will be a small registration. A majority will be cast in favor of sub scription. Then will come litigation, beginning with an injunction to pre vent the issue of bonds by the city. The parties instituting the proceed ings will rely on Section 10 of Article VII of the State Constitution, which reads as follows: "No county, city, town, or other municipal corporation shall contract any debt, pledge its faith or loan its credit, nor shall any tax be levied or collected by an officers of the same, except for the necessary expenses thereof, unless by a .vote of the ma jority of the qualified voters therein." The editor of the Law Department of the Star is not prepared to pre dict the outcome of such litigation, but he is satisfied that will be one of the features of the case. As heretofore shown in the Star, there can hardly be a doubt as to the result of the election under a new registration. A great many promi nent citizens and large tax-payers and an overwhelming majority of the masses of the people favor the sub scription, and these will more gene rally register than will the opponents of the scheme. Had the election been held under the old registration, it is almost cer tain the proposition would have been defeated, although a majority of the voters of the city favor it, as it would have been almost an impossibility to get that majority to the polls. mayor's Court. Yesterday was another busy day for tho Mayor. Twelve prisoners were arraigned all colored. Wm.

Zeb Sanders and George Sanders were charged with disorderly conduct. but the case was cont inued for the de fendants on account of the absence of important witnesses. Ellen Mosely, charged with disor derly conducted, was discharged on account of the absence of Jerry Pas- : quel, the prosecuting witness, and fine of $10 was filtered against the latter for failing to appear when summoned. Nelson Bowden, for keepingan un licensed dog, was fined $-1 for the offence; the fine to be remitted, how ever, when he produces the badge which he claimed had been bought for the dog. Bate Uall.

Mr. Editor: Apropos of your no tice of the Onslow scheme in the local columns of the Star of Sunday. We would like to know why a new registration was ordered. Was it necessary that there should be a new registration ere the question of sub scription to the Onslow road could be submitted to the people ? Can you inform us ? The people are, or should be, in terested in this matter. One hun dred thousand dollars is asked of them, and as one of the people, I should like to know why this new registration was asked for why the city should be put to the expense of another registration when a new reg istration was had only four months ago. Mr. Editor: Please tell us, did the city attorney advise it, or say that it was necessary ? The people desire to know. Will you not ask him for them ? What they the people the citizens of Wilmington desire to know is, was this new registration (which the charter of neither the city nor the Uiwlow K- R. Co. calls for) ordered by the Board of Aldermen because it was necessary required by law; or was it ordered at the instance of the friendt of the railroad for the express Surpose of obtaining (in your words, tr. Editor) "the smallest registration of voters ever had in the city," and thereby enabling them to carry out their scheme, nofwith the ap proval of the majority of the qualified voters of the city, which the consti tution requires, but by the aid of a uiall minority (against the will of the majority) obtained by the aid of their ntv registration ? We rather suspect the latter. It certainly looks so to a man up a tree, ana us aspect, uw not ebange to a man upon hanett level ground, -please tell us, Mr. Editor, for this matter interests us.
