WILMipTON POST. 7ILMINGTON, N. C, FEBRUARY . lM OUR CITY. Mortality in Wilmington. The books the Secretary f Oakdale Cemetery Com ay show the following number or inter :nt3 fpr January, together with , the dis 323 of which the persons so interred died: ;om Jock-jaw, 1 ; nervous affection, 1 ; in imatioQ of the bowels, 1 ; congestive chill, ; jchild bed, 1 ; lung disease, 1 total, 6. f.this number one was brought from Fay leville for interment here; two were in ks' aged from eight days to three years, J two adults ' whose ages varied from rty-ntn'e to seventy-six years. .. . ' 1 V; From the Secretary of the Pine Forest olored) Cemetery, we learn that daring the, onth there were but four interments made ere two of adults and two of children. : will be therefore seen that with ten inter ents, (the body of tn9 white person 5 hav 3 been brought here if rom another place r burial) there have actually been but nine aths within the limits of this city during 3 month of January. V Reckoning therefore that our city now jntains a population of 14,000 souls, this .st record for January shows but one death er month in every 1555 inhabitants, or but ae per year in every 130 persons, f Is. there a city in the world that can show j, proportional equal ? The Value of Cotton. We have taken he trouble to look over several of our late :xchanges for the market reports which they contain, for the purpose of comparing them vith our own. We give the result below, md we think that it proves conclusively, .hat our own is a far better market for pro luee than can be found at any other seaport j Dr inland commercial town within the State. The Bulletin gives the following report of .he Charlotte markets : ; : , - ft , T . January 30, 1868. COTTON. The sales of cotton to-day -mounted to 158 bales, at from p to 12 J cts.

The Conyehtian is at work in earnest, all its members seem to feel the importance, of making as sqon as possible, a liberal con stitution to be submitted to the people as soon after as practicable." I sav a liberal Constitution f or such is the tone of the Con vention. While all their rights and privel eges as citizens will be fully guaranteed the colored race, I aim inclined to" the opinion that it will also i contain universal amnesty to all, in other words, universal suffrage and universal amnesty. Quite a number of dele gates were elected ; on that platform and vejy many elected as radicals, favor it, such as Mr. Pool, of Pasquotank, Mr. Rodman, ot Beaufort and Tourgee, of Guilford. The matter ot relief has 'occupied some time of the Convention and the ordinance offered by Mr. Rodman, of Beaufort, is now hefore the Convention but wil not pass. All fee the necessity of relief in same form, but just what they cannot agree upon.. It having been decided that Legislative work would be entertained by the convention, Gen. Abbott, of your County introduced an ordi nance for the relief of the W. C. & R. R. R, asking the State to endorse a million dol lars worth of its bonds.' The Railroad promising on its part to retire a, million and a half of the qu cqlllion of its Bonds au thorised by the last Legislature. Whether this ordinance becomes a law or not, Gen. Abbott and his friends may feel justly proud of the effort he has made in its behalf arid, he" will receive as! be has the thanks of CqI. Cowan aqd all others interested in the wel fare of $he Road; and here let me add New Hanover may be, justly proud of its representation in this Convention. Qeq, Abbott, as chairman of the Finance Com mittee and second On the Committee of In ternal Improvements, has made a reputation for himself, second to none" in the Conven tion. I may say he stands preeminent, and carries with him more influence than any other member of ihe convention. Mr. Ash ley, as chairman of the Educational Commit tee is at home, his reply to Mj Durham, the leader of the Copperhead par'ty on taxa tion and representation, on Tuesday last, ranks him among the ablest debaters on the floor. Galloway is the ablest colored maQ in the Convention ' The t'North Carolinian" has removed from Wilson to this city, and makes its first appearance as a daily. , It is very sore , and chafes over the publication in the "Post" of the letter sent it by one Bernard of your city. I give it four months to live; it is the vilest and' most abusive sheet in the State and with its degraded puppy,. "Jeff Lee," will goon siuk into oblivion. The Copper head Convention meets in this city Feb. 3th, and even now youj can recognize in town the rebel chiefs preparing in advance food for its rank and j nle. Wm. H. Graham, Judge Merriman, and many others. They are thus far. disappointed at the action of the Convention, hoping as they did that ere this time it would have given it some capi tal tq work ont as their ow stock in trade is exhausted, instead of going directly for ward with the work of organization as they are doing. As it is they can only send forth a platform of the Seymour, Pendleton, Val landigham stripe, and much good may it do them, for if the Conyention makes 1 a lib eral Constitution as .1. believe they will, it will be carried by f orty thousand majority in North Carolina.. I see in town promi nent men from all parts of the State and all are confident of an j overwhelming majority for the Constitution, M-l"it n 1 i y'K:-- The Republican State Convention has been called for Feb: 26th, and it is hoped your section of the State will be well repre sented. New ; Hanover is entitled to six votes in the Convention, but it is expected she will send many more to represent her.

Some that always make von dance br sing; and some don't S Butihe fiddler I wish to speak of to day U one whose first name is sand. He livei.. in a hole in the ground at low water mark, where the tide ebbs and flows twice every twenty-four hours, and generally goes liome when., he sees the tide coming inl :: He is rather a cro5 bed looking chap, , wears light gray clothes and always, runside ways, It don't make any difference to him which side, for if you come to him on one side, he always runs the other way. : He has on an average two claws, but one is eo large he has to carry it on his back, and the other one quite . small. In many places in North Carolina the sand fiddler is never seen,' but in some places the wanderer suddenly ; discovers a large family of 'them running in all directions, except straight ahead. When you try to catch him, he runs the fasterand just as you put your hand on him, he disappears down a hole, and is lost to sight, yvhere be remains in retirement un til he reappears. His food must consist principally Of sand, as he always has a hole to run intoand there is mo corresponding hill to mark the disposition of the" superflu ous sand. He was never know ij to do . j any hard work and spends his time at low tide in playing along the shore. Jle is occasion ally captured by rude boys and sacrificed for bait which is used to entice the finny tribe from their cheerful home3, but as a steady thing he is of no aooount. , I suppose the fiddler average, about 6$ to the square foot, surface measure, and if we estimate tho3e in the holes at 3 J there would be about 10 to the cubic foot which may be near the truth. Now suppose the3e uneasy animals occupy 4 feet in width of the soil; there would be at the above - estimate 213, 330 sand fiddlers to the mile of shore on our sounds, all. living and enjoying our fine cli mate with no expense, to themselves. j . I hope this article will be read by some enterprising Yankee who will come down herend by employing; this vast number of idle vagrants help to develope the resources of North Carolina. 4 In one of his letters frpm Constantinople, Mrk T-wain says : If you want dwarfs--1 mean just a few dwarfs) for curiosity--goto Genoa. If you want tkj -buy them bv the ccross, for retail, go to j Milan. There are plenty of dwarfs all over Italy, but it did not seem to me that in (Milan the crop was luxuriant. If you would see a fair average style of assorted cripples, go to Naples,' or travel through the ROmac States. But if you would see the very heart and home of cripples and human monsters, go straight to Constantinople. A beggar in Naples who can show a foot that has run in one horrible toe, with one shapeless nail on it, has got. a good thing ; but such an exhibition wouldn't stand any chance in Constantinople. The man would starve. Who. would pay any attention to attractions like his among the rare monsters that throng, the bridges of the Golden Horn and display their dcfru.uif.ius in the gutters of Stamboul ? Ob, wretched imposterl Uow could ike stand against the, three legged women, and the man with his eye in his cheek? How would he blush in the presence of a man with fingers on his elbows? Were would lib hid himself when the. dwarf with 'seven finders on each hand, no upper lip, and his under jaw gone, conte down in his majesty f Bismilldh The cripples of Europe are a fraud and delusion.
