CITY OF Y I 1 NUTOX.
Wo have recently enjoyed tlio fleas
.in? lit v! iiin the city of "Wilininy tun.
a..d cannot ri-fraia from giving our
rci'.tii :m Wiio of our impressions of
"our city ly tho se a". The citizens
of central nr.;1. western North Carolina
seem to bo Lrt l':tt!o m-onainted with
the. largest city in t!:-:r Slc.tfl, and
Wilmington does not' receive their
trade .m.l patromyo a..-, idio deserve.
Tho people of that city fool that their
riiv has boon almost cut oil' from the
V3i-.ii of the State, ami tho railro.-uls
'.hat w.u'o projected for tho purpose
of buihliiiK up "Wilmington are now
'cutting her throat", ns her citizens
express it. And yet the Kl"nvl'a 0l
of tho city i:s iLadiiy on tho increase,
and iudeed U quite rcinaihaMe under
ilio circumstances. Tho harbor in
yrovrnicnt.s have greatly improved
her shipping facilities. Only a few
vears ago no vessel drawing more
than 12 or 1:1 feel of water could
cross the bar, but now vessi Is draw
ing IB feet can entei, cud it is hoped
to add still !r.o. to the depth o'
water on tho bar. Shls fr:m ad
ports in Europe may be si n at lur
wharves, and there is a Hue of steam
t'i'a running regnhii'Iy to Xe.v York.
'V'ihrdngton is ihe largest naval stores
wallet in the I'liit -i'- Si -tics. nor
''tur, pitch and turper.'.iuo" being
d ipped from there than froni any
oi'uer port. The lun.'oer trade is also
immctiiMY niillioM'' -r" iect '.eiig an
nually shipped to the West Indies and
tho Northern cities. As aeolion port
Wilmington is r.'.pidly increasing her
;h:p-nents, the number of bales re
ceived there last year biing nearly
jno hundred and iifly thousand.
Three- steam cotton compresses are
kept busy pressing the bales into
n' oat one third oi" their original sixe.

Old IMack rivers. Eiee culture i-
.',aiu becoming an imp rt iat hidm.
, and niauy of the old plantations
arc now being worked very profitably.
Tho fictory of tho Mavassa Guano
' ',i.."y,atiy is rear Wilmingt n int the
place where the railroad crosses the
Cape Fear river) anil annually maim
."actures thousands of tons of their
popular guano, which always finds a
re"dy sale. The Wilm-ft-m Cotton
lulls is one of tl;o largest cotton fac
llcs in the South, and is an import
ant industry of that city.
Tho population of Wilmington is
about twenty thousand, nearly twice
that of any other city in the State.
While Wilmington is one of the oldest
fettled cities in the State, yet her
nrost prominent business men are
ifttive.s of other portions of t!iKtct-
C in'.pieuou.s among them are firmer
citizens of this si-tl.m from the

avoid a trial and escape punishment,
anil all good citizens will no.v rejoice
thr.t at Inst a day has l'en set for
their trial. .Durimj the progress of'
the trial we will no doubt have art
insight into the corruption that exists
in official circles at Washington.
Senator Vance is rapidly gaining a
most enviable national reputation, and
is beecniing almost as popular through
out the United Stales as ho has itlw ays
been in North Carolina. At a grand
nsectine- he-Li in New York, ou last
Fiiday night, under the auspice. of
ihe New York Free Trade Club, he
was tho orator of the occasion, and
tin New York Herald published quit,
a long ami complimentary not'i'e of

The KlectIom cases in South Caro
I lina were tried hist week, andattraet
' ed l ulch attention. These cases w ero
gotten up for )olitical purposes and
; wero intended to intiinidato tho whito
' people of that unfortunate State. Tho
notorious Judge J'oir.l presided at th.o
trials and did all in his power to con
1 vict th.; defendants. Tlio prosecution
was bitter, and the manner of con
i ducting it was vi ry arbitrary. The
defendants wi re put on trial w ithout
any indictment by a grand jury (;i
right guaranteed by our State to ti e
meanest thief) but upon what is call
cd an Information" tiled by the Pis
trict Attorney. Tho defendant:; were
pei'Mins who held the election in 1SS0.
roid were accused of frauds eo..nee'o. 1
therewith. Tho witnesses again -t
them were men of most di-.. ec.tao.e
characters. One was wh.:. t be a
gambler and to hae I - n tried
larceny and murder: am tltei, ace! n
cd school teacher, was shown to have
foiged pay roils and swindled a l ank
in Columbia and se.hieed some of hi)
ptiolls ; .".not her was shown to have
swindled a colored woman out of a
tract of laud, and testimony was in
troduced which went to show that,
every w itness examine 1 by the gov
eminent bore a bad character for truth
and honest v. The jury w as composed
of three lVtnocrats and nine Repub
licans i live whites and four blacks)
and was picked with special care to
secure a com iction, and yet the de
fendants were actpiittcd of he frauds
charged against tbcui. They were
convicted of a technical violation of
the law in not allowing the United
Slates supervisor to inspect tho ballot -box
to his satisfaction, and the jury
in their vtrdict recommended them
to the mercy of the court. This is
the ie.-u!t of the f;rt trial of the
"ballot sniffers" about which so t.r.ich
has been sai l, and whi-ii after all
seems to have been "much ado about
nething".

Therefore, if you valtw your safety,
never approaeli him with manuscript
written ou both sides of your paper.
The editor usually writes with a
pen, but his cut litig articles aro tho
product of his shears.
And let me say light hero that a
good deal of sheer nonsense has been
printed about tlni editor. Ho Uses

The editor would make a good
pub ic speaker but for his propensity
lor clipping words.
Tlie editor's hardest task is to dis
pose of his tone. His wmi'd ho a

A Slanderer ('oiivicti'.l.
A ease was tried at Orange Court last

It was an indictment against Frank
W. Unbelts, a sou of a respectable
