This is a most grati fying exhibit, and shows a steady! increase in our cotton' trade notwithstanding the cut-throat system of through freights. In deed, for the cotton year just closed, our per centageof increase has, been greater than that of New Orleaua,Sayannah,Mobile, Charleston or Galveston, all of which outi rank Wilmington as cotton ports.' v The high prices obtained for cotton here, the fair dealing and libcralty of onr 00m- - mission xnerchantt, and the low; prices of groceries, hardware and dry goods in this market, liave all contributed to this un doubted evidence of our progress.' ... , ; .

In tho meantime we advise all good Democrats to shun tho entire move ment, especially the support or encourage ment of a so-called Democratic organ at Ilalcigh, until the same is sanctioned by suchlifo long Democrats as Gov. Bragg, Judge Howard and the like." ! Let Evans ask 'kjc a fkw Questions ! The Ilillsboro Recorder, ot the 11th inxU, contains the following questions : . ; A QrEsTioy. Have we led you wrong f Ilavewe advised you. wrong? Didn't we toll vou so f Think of the time when the Ku Klux" were a "glorious thing ! ' When even our biggest men were breathless t And when some of your best men looked tlie devil at ns for daring to denounce them and warn them of their course. Yea ! when even our life was publicly, threatened for it? Were we right? Did we predict ngnt what it would load to? Say ! Now be- riftve us we were sincere in what we wrote. We wrote for your welfare, not for the good nfnr nurse and ame. 1 We knew the end vnnld nrove us risrht. It has done it. i You mil Ad us a radical. Said we were paid. We cared not. Our conscience told us we .were right td let bell and its angels oppose us we intended to go ahead. And we went. Didn't we? Has the result iusttned our. course?. Yea,, verily. ? Then in the next crisia believe n sincere when wo advise vou and titrht the issues.

And never again be so . rash as to abuse a man simply; because he is cool in his speech while you are red hot and a heatr ing.' . . What they say ix Wilmington op a RAI.EIOH Man. The Wilmington Journal says of Rev. R. II. Whitaker, of this city; -Rev. ! Mr.. Whitaker, of the Friend of Temperance, delivered, as advertised, an address upon Temperance, last night. ' He has a rich, sonorous voice, and his effort was a success. His admirable argument,' seasoned with spicy anecdotes, made a deep impression, and tho seed he has sown will doubtless hereafter bear fruit in some who- have been heretofore indifferent, or scoffers of tho can3e'of which ho is an eloquent ad vocate, j. 1 . TheS5arof the same, city says: The lecture I of Rev. R. 11. Whitaker. of the Friend of Temperance, delivered at "Eclec tic Hair' last night, is spoken or by all we have heard express an opinion on the sub ject as an able effort, and ono calculated to havo its effect In tlie community. The aud- ! ience was quite largo considering the ex treme inclemency of the weather. Mr. .Whitaker is an able advocate of tlie .cause of temperance and is devoting his timo and talents to its advancement in our State.' Animadverts. The Sentinel of tho 12th threatens to "animadvert" upon the pro ceedings of the Federal Court in this city, if its proceedings do not go on as that pure and spotless sheet deems right and proper. This is a heavy, threat and well calculated to mako the Judges circumspect (very" in their official . demeanor, and to frighten Marshal Carrow from the straight path of dtity. . I ' . . - .'. Tliat paragon of truth asserts that the trials to come off, "are simply political prosecutions, made to fit the machinery of thb radical amendments,1" fcc If the Sentinel by this, means to admit that the Ku Klux Klan is a political organization, which we charge, then that paper is at uberty to amend its cliarge by striking out tho word 'prosecutions," and inserting in lieu there of, the word persecutions, which, we doubt not, was intended in tne original lexu vna then, the next important threat, comes that the Sentinel "nurDoees renortinfiC ? them as fully as our (its) space will permit," with its particular attention added. This is heavy; and the voice of the Sentinel, like the huntsman's horn, is to bo beard in the camps and tents of the Ku Klux, who will be governed by the many hints thrown out, and tlie sago suggestions of one who avers, that he never belonged to any secret society. : 1 ! - . The Recent Stabbing Affair in Wil mington. The parties to this unfortunate occurrence being known to our city readers, and to a large number of our Eastern read ers, we copy the following detailed particu lars from the Star of the 13th insL " W alluded verv briefly in our ilast to an unfortunate difficulty that occurred near the corner of Fourth and Castle streets at lato hour on Monday night last,- during which Mr. Robert Costm was dangerously stabbed in the head by Mr.! W. H. James, both young men belonging in this city. After the wounded man was taken' hpme, the knife; which had not been previously removed by Dr. King from prudential mo tives.'was with much difficulty, withdrawn. the blade having penetrated the left side of his head, above the temple.' to Its' entire length, which was about three inches, and eoiner for some distance into the brain. Since that time life has been! speechless and unconscious. - . ; Yesterday Mr. James was arraigned ' bo-. 1 fore Justice Cantwell for a prelimuiaryj ox- amination, which resulted in his being reg ularly committed for trial at uie next term of the Superior Courts which, meets in this city on the 1st Monday in- December next. An application for bail was refused by Jus tice Cantwell. and the prisoner- was there- yi ' th r .mifrnfT' inn com mitted to jail.' L . ! 1; It may be proper "to remark 'that, tho Court, under the evidence of Dr. 5. Francis King to the eGect tliat there wa3 nttie or no possibility that the wounded man could recover, acted npon the hypothesis that; he was alrenrf dead. t a ' ' - I"1 Wo had intended to give the evidence In full in our paper this morning, but for pru dential reasons we forliear to do so at pres ent. j j- " r: ;; - The defence was ably conducted by A.

It is not our pur pose to comment on tho Grand Jury or the Petit Jury every member of both having taken . and subscribed to an oath ; which leads us to believe that they arc worthy and until, by some act of theirs convincing us to the contrary, wo cannot and will not insinuate that they or anyone of them have perjured their souls.' Mr. Turner siezea every occasion to pro- tost his own loyalty, and to declare his own purity of political morals. Those who cry loudest "thief ! thief!" aro not always above suspicion ; and we should regret very much for anything to transpire by which tho fair name of the Honorable gentleman should be brought jinto disrepute. A grain of tem porizing, unuer certain circumstances, we would respectfully suggest, would prove a precaution, well conceived.

There are writers and speakers who seem to think there are no such things as facts and arguments t They do not cont ro vert, they object and 'denounce. They donot reason, for their thoughts are the guste of passion, and there is no reason in tHem. The people listen to them, or read what they say, but they are neither instructed nor edified there-? by. The wild been that of .;,f-, JV' dance ol secession arid it has passion ana vengeance from the ficst; It was .conceived in passion conducted in passsion, and its end is not yet. Objection and hatred to the Union in 1860 have; given- place to similar objections and similar hatred to the reconstruction acts jin 1871. As these passionate people -sought to de stroy the Government in 18C1, so they Ene seek to embarrass and cripple it now, I ; fj by opposing the; measures deemed ne cessary to give peace to! the country. They offer no reason ror tnis opposition. They point out no defects in the mea sures.! liut i they invoke prejudice : they denounce ; they threaten ; they" impeach ther motives and the character of their opponents, and fill the air with their bedlam cries of "carpet-bagger," "scallawag" "thief," ! "knave " "nig- ger-worshipper," and the like. Is this the entainment to which men or sense am invited? .! 1 ":x 1, The people-see through all this and judget accordingly.
