J oint Meeting of the Board of Aldermen and Board of Audit and Finance The Sewerage Question Street Improve mentA Police Commission Regis trars Appointed for the City Election. A joint meeting of the Board of Al dermen and Board of Audit and Finance was held last evening at the City Hall. There was a full meeting, all the mem bers of the Boards being present with the exception of Alderman Smith. Mayor Fowler presided and stated the object of the meeting to consider the sewerage question. Mr. R. J. Jones, Chairman of the Board of Audit and Finance, offered the following resolutions: Resolved, That the members of the Legislature from this county be request ed to urge the passage of the bill now before them, granting the city of Wil mington authority to issue bonds to the amount of $200,000 for the purpose of establishing a system of sewerage in our city, and that they be also requested to amend said bill so that $100,000 may be ap plied to permanent street improvements, and $100,000 to sewerage; and when submitting the question to the voters of the city the matter shall be separated, so that each voter may be enabled to vote according to his choice either tor or against one or both questions. Resolved, further, That the City Clerk be instructed to forward a copy of this resolution to Messrs. Bellamy, Morton and Kerr, at Raleigh. Mr. Calder submitted the following as a substitute for the above resolution. Whereas, The bonded debt of this city now exceeds S800.000, and is more than 21 per cent, of the assessed value of the real estate and more than 19 per cent, of the assessed value of real and personal property; and, whereas, it is contemplated and desired shortly to re fund large portions of said bonded debt at a lower rate of interest, thereby effect ing a large saving to the taxpayers, which exchange may be provided for by a further issue of bonds, therefore. Resolved, That the increase of our debt for any purpose is at present inex pedient and unadvisable. The substitute offered by Mr. Calder was rejected, and the resolutions offered by Mr. Jones were adopted. On motion, his honor Mayor Fowler was requested to visit Raleigh and urge the passage of a bill as recommended in the resolutions. The Board of Audit and Finance then withdrew and the Board of Aldermen took up the matter of application of W. J. Kirkham, proposing to take charge of and keep in order the batte ries and wires of the new fire-alarm sys tem, for $300 per annum.

The Georgia Southern Leased by Presi dent Jno. M. Bobinson The System Steadily Extending Southward. A telegram from Macon, Ga., says the Georgia Southern and Florida railroad, running between Macon and Palatka, Fla., has been leased to Mr. Jno. M. Robinson's Seaboard and Roanoke sys tem or a term of ninety-nine years. Mr. Robinson of the Seaboard and Roanoke is given $2,175,000 worth of stock jto guarantee 6 per cent, interest on $2,000,000 stock and 6 per cent, on the niortgage bonds of the road. The Georgia Southern is 285 miles in length, and will connect with a new road to be built by Mr. Robinson of the Seaboard and Roanoke to Elberton, Ga., where it will connect with his road to the North, thus jgiving the system two hours ad vantage over the Richmond and Dan ville between New York and Central Florida. It i$ learned from a gentleman in Wil mington, well informad on railroad mat ters, that the G. C. & N. R. R. will be completed to Atlanta by September 1st next, jwhile it is estimated that a year from this date will see the completion of the! link between Elberton, Georgia, and the Georgia, Florida & Western atf Macon, Ga, which will give the S. A. Line an uninterrupted line from New York and Baltimore to Palatka, Florida. That line completed andthe South will have within one year from this time three ! distinct through lines to the North through North Carolina the Atlantic Coast Line, the Seaboard Air Line, nd the Piedmont Air Line. Whjjn capital is being invested so lavishly in Southern enterprise of such magnitude, who can doubt the wonder ful development of the South now in active! progress. . THE FAST MAIL. Eemibiicans Trying to Cripple the Service RerJort says that the appropriation . ! . .. r TTT : for the last mail service . irom w asuing ton South, via Richmond and Wilming ton, came near being defeated in the Hnnsft nf Renresentatives last Saturday. Mr. Grosvenor and other Republicans . - . wanted to knock out tne paragrapn, claiming that the wording of the item mMnt' subsidies to. Southern railroads. The paragraph was saved by the slim majority of two. The Postmaster Gen eral sent in smaller estimates by about $100,000 than had been riamed in the bill for this service, and that gave the opponents excuse for their' fight. According to the report of the com mittee the expenditures last year for special facilities on the roads named be low were as follows in round numbers : Baltimore and Potomac $21,900. Rich mond, Fredericksburg and Potomac $17,419, Richmond and Petersburg $4. 210, Wilmington and Weldon $29,541, the Petersburg $1,159. Wilmington, Co lumbia and Augusta $20,075, Northeast ern $17,337, Charlestbn and Savannah $19,710, Savannah, Florida and Western $31,300, Jacksonville, Tampa and Key West $22,867, and the South Florida $21,095. These roads have to be well paid in order to make it profitable to carry the fast mail, and had the enemies of the South carried their point, the service would have been badly crippled for the next fiscal year.
