DEATH OF CAPTAIN A. WILsoN.-Captain
A. Wilson, of the seventh police precinct,
died at his residence, on Water near Upper
line street. at four o'clock Monday morning.
The death of this gentleman well be felt by
his many friends, as we'll as those who have
served under his etficient command on the
police. Beginning at the bottom round of
the ladder as a patrolman, he, by his ex-
emplary department, rose to the rank OF
captain of police. For five years Captain
Wilson served on the police in that grade
with credit to himself, as he also did during
the late war in the navy.

Among the descriptions Of watering.
places which fiji the columns of the
newspapers, we call especial attention
to those in the South. They commend
themselves to our explorers into new
social and natural regions for several
reasons, chief among which Is that
they are almost uuRnoW to the present
generation Of Norheners. The DAYS
when the New York belle and phila-
delpha hlue.blOoded lawyer ran down
to The White SULPHUR or Berkeley in
August AVID mingled with the Lees,
Marshalls, Cahels, and Peytons were
ended and forgotten in the war. a
new generation has arisen ON either
side that knows not Joseph or his
ways. The old intercourse May have
seemca u trivial matter; there were
II few weeks pleasant dallying
at the Springs; then the
Northern visitor nine times in ten was
driven from them in II great family
carriage with bays and Outriders to
some hospltahIe Virginia mansion,
and passed from one plantation to an
other until he grew to believe the
world lay within the lazy cultured ge-
i.ial life about him, and that every
Page or Marshall WAS his cousin rs
they were cousins of each other. In
winter the Virginia or Carolina Col
Onel ANA his pretty, rose-tInted girls
came mp to New York and Boston, and
were guests In their turn. Probably Il
wedding ended the story. All trilcs,
no doubt; society matters on which
practical men or rCtormcrs look down
with contempt. Yet it was precisely
the brotherhood OF feeling bcgotten
10y this kindly intercourse which made
it so difficult Tor practical men to bring
on the war.
The war has come. Its great object
is accomplished. Now let us bring, IL

BisInarck's Success.
From the London Tclogrnph.1

IL Is only fair to assume that before
Prince Bismarck entered on his cru
SADIE against the Ultramontanes he
calculated how far the pressure he
could exert was adequate to overcome
the resistance of the recalctrant clcr-
gy aud the mere fact that he deemed
the balance of the probabilities to be
ON his side, should make every candid
observer pause before he assumes as
self-evident that tGermany has under
taken II hopeless enterprise. Hitherto
the high ecclesiastical dignitaries of
the Catholic church in Prussia have
rejected all overtures of compromise
with an unexpected tenacity of pur-
pose. For the first time, however.
there is a sign ofyielding. DR.. Foster
the Prince Bishop of Breslau, has
announced that he intends to obey the
law regarding the administration of
parochial property pertaining TO the
Catholic Churches. This law was de.
nounced ut the time Of It's passage as n
gross violation OF the freedom of the
Church. Indeed, of the whole Faiolt
legislation, the law In question, WINS

Ollie clergy IN Germany. How far the

firm OF Sanger Brothers, located here
recently, moved their large stock of
dry goods to the brown stone front,
opposite their former store room on
Houston street, and Notwithstanding

manufacture an excellent brand of
flour, for which they have extensive
orders from eastern markets. The
new firm are buying large quantities
of wheat and are the most enterpris-
Ing men we have in our little city.
The Grand Gift Concert Is under
way and the time of drawing set for
October next. There are several of
our most enterprising men at the head
OF this enterprise and we predict II to
be q success.
