THE STATE GUARD.
The First and Second Begixnents to En
camp at WrightsYille This Tear and
the Third and: Fourth at Asheville
Reasons for Making this Arrangement.
The Star has reliable information
that the honors of the encampment of
the State Guard this summer will be di
vided between Asheville. andTWrights-
ville; the First and Second regiments go
ing into camp at the latter place and the
Third and Fourth regiments at Asheville.
By this arrangement there will be a con
siderable saving in the cost of transporta
tion, it is said, and besides Asheville has
agreed to pay all expenses, v Without
this arrangement it is doubtful, as the
Star is informed, if van encampment
could be held at all this year, as it would
be necesbary to raise at least $1,000 in
addition to the amount now available,
to have all the regiments together at
Wrightsville. Officials appreciate what
Wilmington has done for the Guard. As
they say, she has been more, than kind
in every way, and they cannot ask any
thing oi her. "7
It is the opinion, also, and no doubt a
very correct one.' that - regimental,1 en
campments each regiment entirely un-i
der its own Colonel are best for the
troops so far as discipline and instruc
tion are concerned. , : .
Over three thousand dollars have
been spent on the permanent encamp
ment grounds at Wrightsville, and yet a
great deal more is needed to - put the
place in the condition it should be. , It
is thought, however, that it will do very
nicely this year for two regiments at
one time, and no doubt the First" and
Second will find it a pleasant and com
fortable camp. The State Legislature,
however, will have to increase' the ap
propriation considerably to make it fit
for the encampment of the entire State
Guard. -' :' ". ":-r- "
A GREAT DRAUGHT OF FISHES.
Wonderful Success of the Fishermen of
Morehead with Nets in Deep Water.
A correspondent of the Star, writing
from Morehead City, gives an account
of the remarkable catches of fish made
at Morehead City with nets in deep
water. . - '
"Last week the correspondent writes,
was one long to be remembered hy the
fishermen of Morehead City, on account
of the largest catch of fish ever made in
the month of February. There were
one hundred and fifty . thousand seven
hundred and sixty-three croakers and
sixteen thousand two hundred and six
teen pounds of trout caught in five days,
beginning Monday. Feb. 1st, and ending
rriday, the 5th. lhese nsh were caught
about two and a halt miles oil shore
from Fort Macon, near - the sea ' buoy,
iwhere the water will average about six
fathoms. They were caught by sinking
the nets .down to the bottom, - and that
is done by tying sinkers on the lead
line of the net. The nets are allowed
to lay on the bottom from ten to thirty
minutes and when taken up they are
meshed full of fish. This mode of fish
ing is new. as it was never tried till
about one month ago, and so far it has
proved very successful.
"h or three years and until about one
month ago, there were great quantities of
fish caught in the same waters - with
hook and line, but the net-fishing hav
ing proved to be so much more success
ful, hooks and lines have been laid aside
and the nets are being used altogether.
"The above figures do not give the en
tire catch, as there were great quanti
ties of fish . caught in the same waters
by. our sister town, Beaufort, and sold
to the dealers of Beaufort 7
Hotel Failures.
It would seem from the following that
the people of the South are not having
all the dull times to themselves:
The Grand Central Hotel, on lower
Broadway, New York, has closed its
doors on account of financial troubles.
The annual rental was $65,000. This
hotel was headquarters for Southerners
in N. Y., and derived a large portion ot
its support from them, borne years ago
it was particularly famous -as being the
scene of the shooting of James Fisk, Jr?,
by Edward Stokes. The failure ot the
Grand - Central is the fourth that has
occurred in New York hotel circles in
the oast six months, the others being
the Stnrtevant, St. James and the New
York Hotel.
The failure of four leading hotels in
New York in the short period of six
months, is something well calculated to
open the eyes 01 tnose wno imagine
that the South is the only sufferer from
hard times.
Episcopal Convocation.
The Convocation of Wilmington will
be held at St. raurs Church, in this
city, commencing on Wednesday, the
24th inst.. (St. Mathias' Day.) The
"Commission!' of St. Andrew's Brother
hood for jthe Southern States will be
present at this meeting, and each clergy
man of the Convocation . will appoint a
lay delegate. Rev. Dr. Carmichael is
the Dean and Rev. C H. Weaver is the
Secretary.
The Cabbage Crop.
Truck"" farmers in this section will be
glad to hear that the cabbage prospect,"
as far as ; prices are concerned, is favor
able. Commission houses worth say
that early cabbages will bring good
prices. - They are getting scarce in that
section onraccount of the hard winter,
and shipments from the South are anx
iously awaited. The early arrivals from
North Carolina will undoubtedly yield
remunerative returns.
