He says that he is pleased to see so much done already toward placing the city in good condition. Of the total number of deaths oc curring in April, 24 were negroes and 12 whites. Annul Commencement.

The Cape Fear Club gave a most charming reception last night at their new club house, to their lady friends and the officers of the French frigate Ze Bisson., The officers of the revenue steame,r Colfax were also present. The olub put their best foot fore most and every thing that pertained to the enjoyment of the evening was done in befitting style. The hand some rooms were brilliant with light, and the gay concourse of ladies and gentlemen which thronged the rooms throughout the evening, seemingly enjoyed the entertainment to the fullest extent. An elegant supper was provided which the guests did full justice to, and the band of harpers furnished music which kept the dancers on the floor until a late hour. The affair was a brilliant success and such as reflected credit on the committees entrusted with the deli cate duty of entertaining the visitors. The Cape Fear Club is an old es tablished institution here, and its reputation for open-handed hospi tality has never been more signally emphasized than by its last night's entertainment. We congratulate the town upon having such a place, and we feel that with the new and con stantly increasing membership many other occasions of enjoyment are in 8 tore for those who may visit our "City by the Sea."

It is understood that those who cannot pay this amount in one installment are not obligated to do so, but compliance with this call will greatly facilitate the work of the board. It is likewise understood that this board will gladly receive larger payments, or payments in full, from those subscribers who are able and willing to make such payments. Mr. H. M. Bowden having been elected treasurer of this board, is au thorized to receipt for moneys paid on subscriptions, and, if such pay ments are not made direct to him, as this board for great con venience would urge, he will desig nate in writing reliable persons to call upon subscribers for the pro rata assessment now made.

Mr. Stuckey was felled with a blow on the head the club cutting a ter rible gash, from which the blood flowed profusely and while partially insensible from the effects of the blow was placed on a dray and taken to the City Hall, where, after his wound had been attended to by a physician, he was looked up. It is al leged that the policeman used his club without provocation. The mat ter, however, will be investigated by the Mayor this morning, and a num ber of persons who witnessed the affair have been cited to appear. Tne Carina- Affair.
