WATER WORKS AND FIRE DE
PiRTKErtT.
Reduced Exnenses f tks Latter Will
Nearly Pay the Rentals for
tbe Former.
At a recess meeting held yesterday
and at the preceding regular meeting
held a little previously, the city council
took action on matters relative to the
Fire Department which will reduce the
expense of the Department ibout $3,000
per year. This they are enabled to do on
account of the service rendered by the
water wor'es. Tbe amount saved, it will
be noticed, will lack only $700 of paying
tbe water works rentals, and it is fully
believed by those familiar with the work
ings of tbe department tbat if tbe little
extra expenses which occasionally bad to
be met were counted, that the reduction
in expenses would entirely offset the
rentals.
Hereafter, when a Are alarm is sound
ed no engine will go out unless a general
alarm is given, and then only one will go,
and the engineers instead of being on a
salary, will be paid only for the time they
are actually at work.
The New Berne engine house will be
dispensed with and the engine taken
around to city headquarters. It is ex
pected to place the hose carriage in some
other part of the city to more widely dis
tribute the protect iou.
There will also bo three less horses to
keep, and other things work in to count
up on the saving.
Fred Douglass, col., Disbarred.
Special 1'ensiotn' Examiner stationed
here, C. M. Gilpin, received instructions
lrom the Burenu of Pensions in which
he is instructed by Commissioner Wm.
Lochren to notify pension agent Frederic
Douglass, of New Berne, that he has beeu
disbarred from practice in tho Depart
ment of the Interior.
As we understand it, thi.s action wan
the result of information furnished by ex
aminer Gilpin, tliat said Douglass, col.,
had been charging liis clients fees not al
lowed by law.
Mr. Gilpin, in a very quiet way, has
done some good work since ho has been
here, both for the Department and the
country, and it is expected this la hut the
beginning of wrong doings that he is get
ting testimony about.

A New Bern Wedding In the Last
Century.
The following account ofaweddiug
in New Born a hundred years ago, with
its description of quainr, costumes and
observances, and tho spirit which seemed
to characterize the prolonged te9tivilies,
will doubtless interest our readers the
younger members especially. We ven
ture the stateinent-tuat, it a wedding
ceremony of to-day were liad to the ac.
compammcLt ot tue arc ol artillery, the
bride and bridesmaids would be sadly
demoralized, an.i might even beat a rapid
retreat.
Tho participants in the merry making
have long since passed away. Mrs. Att
more was the grandmother of Dr. Geo.
Attmore of Pamlico; the bride and
groom, Mr. and Mrs. Carthy, were the
parents of the late Mrs. Peter Cust's
Miss Butchclor was afterwards Mrs. Ed
ward Giaham, wifu of "Counsellor"
Graham, who was tho "Gentleman from
New York,'' then recently settled in New
Bern; Mr. Nash was the Hon. Frederick
Nash, afterwards Chief Justice of the
State; "Parson" Cutting was the Rev.
Leonard Cutting, D. D., Rector of Christ
Church. Tbe house in which the wed
ding was celebrated, stood near the foot
of Pollock street, and was destroyed in
the great fire of 1842. It was a hand
some residence, with spacious grounds,
and the then rarity ot a private hsa
pond.
"Copy of a letter written by Miss
Amaryllis Sitgreaves of New Bern, to her
sister, Mrs. Attmore, thea in Philadel
phia, giving a description ol the wedding
of Miss Sarah Hasleu, which occurred on
Tuesday, December 8th, 1790 or 1791."
"A large company the bride was
dressed in white lustring, the habit bound
down the sides with ribbon, the coat
flounced with gauze, a small white chip
hat lined with white, a large bow belore.
Miss Hasten and Miss Batchelor brides
maids, both in white luslring and elegant
head-dresses, Ned Kean and Dr. Cutting
groomsmen. Old Parson Cutting mar
ried them. The handsomest wedding has
been in New Bern since I can remember.
Mamma, Sister, Brother and I were all
there.
The vessel stood at the end of tbe
house, illuminated with a great many
candles, and looked very handsome.
When tbe two tea-tables were drawn
from the side of tbe room the guns fired;
when the bride was led down stairs to be
married the guns began to fire again and
continued until they were married. Then
we hud tea, then danced until supper,
then marched up stairs two and two, tbe
drummer and flier playing at tbe door;
a very elegant set supper: two large
square cakes, one at the head, the other
at the toot, four pounds each. Mrs.
Hasten at tbe head of tbe table, Parson
Cutting at the toot, Mrs. Bride at the
right band of her Mamma, Mr. Carthy
(tbe groom) at the left Our Mamma at
the right band ot the Bride the old lady
and Biide insisted on it Mrs Cutting at
the left of Mr. Cartoy.
"As the Bride did not choose to walk
a minuet, Bister and Mrs. Haslen did.
Mrs. Carthy and Dr. Cutting danced to-
f ether, Mr. Carthy, the groom, and Miss
latchelor danced together, Mr. Kean and
Mies Phoebe together. Tuesday, Wed
nesday and Thursday they danced at the
Old Lady's, Friday at Mr. Tom Haslen 's
I did not go Wednesday nor Thursday,
but Friday they sent Mr. Nash and a
carriage for me, so I went and passed tbe
evening quite agreeably. Miss Haslen
and Miss Batchelor sang, Mr. Haslen
played on the flute until tea, then we
danced. I danced with Mr. Graham tbat
night, Tuesday night with Mr. Nash.
Tbis Mr. Graham is a gentleman from
New York; he danced so mnch like our
dear brother Joeey, and the Bride so lfke
yon that it made Mamma feel quite low
spirited. ..
."The gentlemen had a relish on board
the vessel Saturday; guns were fired all
that day, our brother Joeey danced
better at tbe wedding than anv one there
except Mr. Qrahan and Mr. Hasten. He
aancea witn tue nnae at air. tiasien's
and .they Out most noble figure. -1 had
the honor or dancing with Mr. Howe at
the 'wedding, Miss Sally Vall's nephew.
I dined at my brother's with Mr. and Mrs,
Carthy. "Mrs. Haslen, Miss Haslen. Miss
Batchelor, Mr. Graham and Mr. Nash
Tha two young ladies sang. The Bride
was dressed in her second day's suit,
the color a beatiful pink, her wedding
haf Tbe Old - Lady a black satin habit
and cost; Miss Haslen a white habit and
blue coat; Mis Batchelor a green Persian
habit and coat; Sister a brown aatin; I in
my flowered muslin and pink coat - - -"'Tho
Bride dined at her brother's first,
then at Mr. Witherspoon's, then at Col.
Wdhams. O my dear, how we all wished
you to beat this wedding.", .

II.
Petetion.
To the Honorable Mayor and Board of
City Councilmen of the city of New
Berne.
The undersigned would resectlully re
qnest that the ordinance in reference to
signs across the sidewalks be so modified
as lo permit those already erected in ac
cordance with lormer ordinances; provi
sion being made for securing the sale fas
tening ol the same by an inspection by
properly authorized officers and that a
special meeting be called ti consider this
petition.
The above petition was circulated yes
stenlay exclusively among the business
houses of the city.
The name ol nearly every business man
in the city whose busidcss calls for a sign
across the sidewalk is attached to the
petition.
The number of the signatures is filty
seven. This expression of sentiment agaiust
the ordinance is a strong one and should
lend to its repeal. Making it a doty as
intimated, of some city employee to see at
regular intervals of a few mouths, that
all signs are securely fastened, will remedy
whatever apprehension may be felt of
their falling,
What Next?
First a big nonscnsecial scare about
Mad Dogs! Who has seen a genuine
case of rabies in the city of New Berne,
and where was it known? Muzzle your
dogs and make them run mad if you can.
Now it's take down all of your signs.
What next, gentlemen? We are ready to
obey. fj. B. W.
