The intelligence of the death of Colonel Duncan MoRae reached us yesterday. It occurred at his daughter's" residence in- Brooklyn, N. Y., on Sunday evening, 12th February. -He was born in Fayette- ville in 1819, and had jast turned into his 69th year. For a year or more he had been a great sufferer, and last summer went North to seek such skill as New York could afford. It has heen apparent to his friends that he could not last very "long, and he contemplated his departure with satisfaction. North Carolina has produced" the fewest number of men who could be compared with him in brilliancy of intellect. In wit he was eaual to anv man v vr knew. In powers of repartee he was indeed a master. In eloquenoe when at his best, and' in his prime, he was of a high order. ' In mental -. resources he would compare with most men of bis time. He was an admirable illus tration that splendor of mental parts is not incompatible with solidity of reasoning. He was a good lawyer, but a better advocate. When in fall health he had but few rivals at tbe North Carolina bar as an advocate. Col. MoRae was an extraordinary ! ooy. At nve years of age he made an address to (General Lafavette ! rf when he revisited this country and j came to Fay etteville, that was named in his honor. This was in 1825. He i was educated at William and -Mary ; College, Va., and entered the bar as soon as the law would allow. He soon attracted attention. He settled in Raleigh after a few years and ! practiced in Wake and the adjoining counties. There were great lawyers on his circuit then, and be soon took an excellent rank among them. As a po ltical speaker, be was bold, dashing, earnest, witty, -aroastic, vigorous, elo quent. He wa a dangerous man to meet, because of bis remarkable ombioalioo of gifts. He was Con ul to Pans for six yars. In 1858, ne was an independent candidate for Qoveraor against Gov. Ellis, and wa defeated. He made a very splendid campaign, tie was colonel ot toe 5th North Carolina Regiment, and did some heroic fighting at Wil liamsburg, Va. He was also in the battle of South Muuntain and per haps other engagements. He edited a daily in Raleigh for a year or so daring the war. It was called The Confederate and rendered signal ser vice to the great Southern cause. It was a dashing, slashing, lively paper. After the war Col. MoRae re moved to Memphis, Tenn., where he became distinguished, as we know, as the most consummate advocate in that city. He was suo cessful there, but on account of the health of a daughter he removed to Chicago where he practiced law for a few years. His heart was always in old North Carolina, the home of his fathers and his affections, and about 1879 or 1880, he removed to this city. Here he has been a well known figure on our streets. Here he obtained a good practice; here he made political speeches; here he de livered some of the most magnificent lectures that have been heard in tbe South. Here he had many friends and relatives who will be deeply pained to learn of his death. He has passed away at a somewhat ad vanced age, honored, respected and venerated. He was a man of physi cal and moral courage. He was not a great man, perhaps, but, he was certainly a man of unique, strik ing, captivating, commanding gifts. He was a man of some thing like genius. He was no plodder. He reached his highest altitude by an eagle's sweep. His intellections were rapid; his percep tions keen and intuitive; bis mastery of subjects easy and immediate. He was capable of making long, elabo rate, sustained, powerful, legal and political argument, and when he entered the arena of debate he was in full armor from head to heel, like a knight of old. We have given a rapid survey of the chief points in his life. We shall in another article give some brief reminiscences of one of tbe men of rarest gifts who have flourished in North Carolina during the nineteenth century. This writer has known! Coir' McRaej: for more than thirty ysars and heard him speak ai! far back as 1845'and 184i. ( :.?- WILMINGTON, CoL MoRae married a daughter of Hon,. Louis D. Henry, of Virginia, &he and two daughters survive him. The Qreenbboro correspondent of the Riohmond Dispatch writes of the political pot-boiling in this good "Old North State" as follows : "The political stew-pan of North Caro lina is beginning to simmer; in fact it bolls A full schedule of political raco-horses will be trotted out after a thorough groom ing by their respective friends for the race. The census returns are being overhauled for all the illustrious names, and they are legion If we are to lodge by the newsp per puffs, it would seem that most of the present generation, especially the folks, are patriots " men It is a breach of privilege to arrest a member of Parliament after it meets. The arrest of Mr. Gilhooly is dearly an outrage, for he- was leaving the House during a session of Parliament. But the Tories have grown reckless. They havo long been overbearing. T EOD GITT".

Members of Wilmington Steam Fire Engine Company No. 1 are no tified to meet at their hall this morn- ring, to attend the funeral of Mr. R. E. Calder, who was an honorary member of the Company. The building boom started last summer has not died out. Among other enterprises of this nature, five cottages are being erected on a large lot on Church and Second streets, the property of Mr. E. G. Barker. The body of CoL D K. MoRae, who died in Brooklyn Sunday, was placed in a receiving vault, to await the, determination of his family as to the place of burial. It is probable that his remains will be taken to Fayette ville for interment. The entertainment given last evening at the residence of Mrs. Du Brutz Cutlar, for the benefit of St. Paul's Episcopal church, was pleasant and home-like and was greatly en joyed by those who attended. It was a decided success both socially and financially. We are requested to state that the "Supervisors" appointed by the Pastors' Conference, in making their reports will please write on one side of the paper only and make their entries separate, so that they may be cut apart. They are also request ed to send their reports to the secre tary on or before March 1st. In the police court of Rich mond, Va., on the 11th inst., two smalL- colored' boys who gave their names as Sy Stokes and Robert Wil liams, . were arraigned as vagrants. The boys said that they lived in Wilmington, N. C, and were on their way to New Jersey to see their rela tives. They were committed for ten days in default of security. Yesterday was the celebration of .the Chinese New Tear, and was observejby all natives in this coun try. On this occasion as well as on all others, Chinamen .have a feast with as many native productions as Dracticab'e. The laundryman in this city, San Lee, was not behindhand. But being the only one of his nation ality here, he invited a select few of his customers, who had the pleasure of seeing many things of foreign make as well as satiating their thirst bv some excellent, so it is said, Chinese brandy. r.w Vbil Hc Talklas v The editor of the Charlotte Hornet, in sneaking Of the proposed encamp ment of the State Guard at or near Wilmington, this summer, says: "A more delightful place; to - go into eamp, or a cleverer ; set, of people to ami) among, could no wen om wtau Thii loeal has tried it-at oldlCamp 'Lamb.'-Whiting.' and rreral -other , saMps areira there.'?,, TN. O.j TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 1888. Death mt Mr. R. K. Calmer. Mr. Robert E, Calder, senior mem ber of the well known mercantile firm of Calder Bros., died at his residence in this city at half-past 4 o'clock Sun day afternoon, from a pulmonary af fection which had incapacitated him from business for several months. Mr. Calder was aged about forty-six years; he was a native of Wilmineton. and a member of the vestry and treas urer of St. James1 church. During the war he served as lieutenant in the Second. Regiment of N. C. State troops, and .received a severe wound in one of the seven, days' battles in front of Richmond, Va., in 1862, by which the sight of one of his eyes was destroyed. TJponthe announcement of his death yesterday morning the rooms of the Produce Exchange, of which he was a highly esteemed mem ber, were draped in the emblems of mourning and a joint meeting of the members of the Exchange and Chamber of Commerce was held at 4 o'clook in the afternoon. At this meeting, held in the Ex change building, Mr. H. C. McQueen was called to the chair and Mr. D. G. Worth, Mr. Chas. H. Robinson and Mr. Clayton Giles being appointed a committee to draft suitable resolu tions, reported the following: We are assembled to consider a mournful event the removal by death from our business and social community of a young and active member of these associations. From the prime of manhood, in the midst of usefulness, Mr. Robert E. Calder, has been called away; and to express our sense of the loss we have sus tained and our appreciation of his many virtues and his honorable re cord, we offer the following resolu tions: Resolved, That in the death of Mr. R. E. Calder. a former president of the Wilmington Produce Exchange and an active member of the bodies here represented, we have lost one who has been honored as a merchant worthy of honor, a citizen conscien tious in the discharge of his duty to his city. State and eounty one who was in nis family relations a devoted and affectionate son, brother, hus band and father, and in his Christian character consistent and upright. Resolved, That as his death sepa rates us from valuable and pleasant intercourse with our . friend and shrouds our hearts in the mantle of regret, memory recalls his sterling business intelligence and active Chris tian virtues, and mingles with onr mourning tne consciousness of his rich example. Resolved, That his quiet and gentle manner in his transactions with men. bespoke the dignity and manhood of his nature, and awakens the more a sentiment of profound and appreci ate sympathy with those who more directly feel this bereavement. Resofed, That with these reflec tions Inadequately suggesting our ap preciation or tne character or our de parted friend,, we tender our sympa thies to his deeply bereaved family, and as a mark of respect, recommend that we attend his funeral in a body, and that during his obsequies the rooms of the Produce Exchange be closed and . business suspended. Resolved, That the name and date of the death of the deceased be in scribed on a blank page of the re cords of the Produce Exchange, and Chamber of Commerce, as a memo rial, and a copy of these resolutions be engrossed by the secretary and sent to nis iamuy. The resolutions were unanimously adopted by a rising vote, and on mo tion it was announced by the chair that the members of the Exchange and of the Chamber of Commerce would assemble in the rooms of the Exchange, at half-past 10 o'clock this morning and attend the funeral of their deceased member in a body. A mlMias nan. Mr. Oscar Nuhn, of Tacoma, Wash Indon Territory, in a letter to the Star accompanying an advertise ment which appears in this issue, m a makihe inquiry for his lost orotner, Jalins L. Nuhn, says that he disap- Deared from this place, where he was last heard from on the 15th of Janu ary, 1885, and that all personal re search to ascertain his whereabouts since have failed f result. Persons to whom the matter was mentioned yesterday are of the opinion that one of the agents or members or tne Dana of the Wkard- Oil Co. which visited Wilmington several years ago and re mained in the city a week or two was known as Julius Nuhn. If this is true it mav furnish a clue to the missing man. The representatives of the Wiz ard Oil Company had a team of five horses and a large band wagon, with which they paraded the streets, iney were on their way north and the man ager of the party said they would make a tour of Canada that summer. Mr. Oscar Nuhn offers one hundred dollars reward for the missing man and says that any Information found to be reliable, shall not fail to be re sponded to with the reward offered.

Tire lecture by CoL A. M. Waddell for the benefit of the Wilmington Light Infantry attracted only a fair siied but nevertheless an appreciative audience at the . Opera House last night. His subject was the "Univer sal Infirmity." It.was treated in hu morous style, to the satisfaction of all present. ' Col. Waddell said that there were three kinds of fools these who are horn so, those who acbffeve it and those who have it thrust upon them. The first and third, he said, were inevitable, and he would simply refer to the second class. The ways or manner in which a man may acknowledge himself or be con sidered a fool are so numerous that there is hardly one to be found who has not at some time or other made a fool of himself. In fact, he said, if a reward should be offered for such a man, the one that would endeavor to prove It, would only prove himself the biggest fool of all. The lecture abounded throughout in ludicrous illustrations touching nearly every profession and showing the varied opportunities presented for a man to make a fool of himself. The audience laughed to their entire satisfaction leaving, however, suffi cient waste for four time their num ber. Kvllleel on the Ball. A woman was killed by the 2.40 p. m. train on the W., C. & A. R. R. yes terday afternoon on the trestle at Sturgeon Creek, near Me ares' Bluff. ' She was in company with a man, but whether he was injured or not no in formation was given. Both the man and the woman were in the city yes terday. They were arrested as tramps, and belonged to the band of foreign ers called "Arabians," who passed through the city several days ago. No particulars of the unfortunate oc currence could be obtained. A coffin was sent np from the city by the rail, road authorities, and Sergt. Skipper, of the police force, was sent to the Blnff by the Chief of Police, for the purpose, it is presumed, of identify ing the parties, neither of whom could speak English. Grating Commenced. Brunswick street, where the Sea- coast Railroad leaves the Weldon Railroad track, was alive yesterday. The hands commenced throwing dirt by half-past six o'clock in the morn ing and by the afternoon the street was torn np and a good portion of dirt thrown out. The work will now be pushed rapidly, and by the 1st of July any one wishing to take a surf bath or enjoy the luxuries of the Sound can do so by taking the train, and in a fifteen or twenty minutes' ride will be placed on the hummocks, from which place a bridge will be thrown to the banks. We understand the contractors for the trestle over the sound will go down to-day. BIayre Coon. William Davis, oolsred, charged with disorderly conduot, was arraign ed before the Mayor yesterday, but was discharged under a suspension of judgment. Leah Brown, colored, disorderly conduct, was sentenced to pay a fine of ten dollars or work twenty days on the street. Phil. Hill, a colored boy found asleep under a residence, was ordered to be locked up for a few days. Two "Arab" tramps a man and woman who Were sent out of the city but returned, were ordered to be imprisoned for the day and then sent out of the city. Tna ra To-Rlcnt. The Memorial building of St. Paul's Evangelical Lutheran church will be tastefully decorated to-night, on the occasion ' of the Martha Washington Tea Party, with bunting, flags, etc., which will blend artistically with "ye olden time" costumes of the fair ladies who serve edibles appropriate to the occasion. To the participants in the pro gramme, which was published in full Sunday morning, has been added the name of Mr. L. H. Vollers, who has kindly consented to give a recitation. A pleasant evening is promise d every body and the price of admission is only ten cents. Newspaper Tnleves. The despicable newspaper thieves, who follow the carriers In their early morning rounds and purloin papers from doorways and piazzas, are a great nuisance In other communities besides Wilmington. In Savannah, the other day, a colored boy was ar rested for stealing papers, and the mayor gave him the alternative of going to jail or taking a whipping. The boy's mother stripped the young thief and flogged him in good style. Something of this kind will have to be resorted to In this city unless the nuisance is abated. - Foreign Bxports Yesterday .
