It was found that the hall was too large to be filled by the voices of the actors. It is pomp and show and the dramatic qualities are lost or overshadowed by the scenic. A dispatch to the Philadelphia Press says: "Indeed, it may be said that the dramatic element of the event was entirely lost in the scenic display. The noble dialogue of Cassius (Barrett) and Brutus (McCullouzh) was entirely lost to the larger part of the audience, while the music, industriously introduced wherever it was possible, impaired the continuous action of the play. Louis James made the stately lines of Julius Caesar audible farther than any of his fellows, and gave, herhaps, the most satisfactory impersonation of the group." Hon.

At the closeotDr. Milburn's very enter taining, amusing and beautiful lecture upon Richard Eutkkley Bhxridab last night, one of our oldest and most. respected law vers said to us. "A wonderful man We echo the sentiment, and after Bearing two sermons and four lectures from Dr. Mil burn, we feel like we had been at a royal feast, extending through a week, at which the most delightful and toothsome viands Had been offered to gratify and ea courage the appetite--a feast of poetry and pathos, of incident and narrative, of descrjn- tioaand eloquence We write it donmsathe tjaoX sh4ir.Mirburn grows within acquaintance and that if his last effort, was not' the most passionate and ornate, the most powerful and dramatic, It was never theless the most amusing, the most sunshiny, the most beautiful.

There was a rich vein of quiet humor and gentle satire running through it. There were of course many charming pen-pictures and glorious descriptive passages. Sheridan was not a shadow, a phantom, a will-o'-the-wisp in his hands, but a living being, with every lineament clean cut, and every "virtue and fault lit up with a bright calcium light of intelligence that flooded it. The picture of the dullard Dick in boyhood; of the wayward and thriftless Dick in manhood's early prime; of the brilliant wit and the best playwright of the last hundred years; of the brilliant orator who extorted praises from the opposition and made a name forever; of the dissipated and indiscriminate spendthrift; dying at last in utmost poverty and under circumstances full of tragic sternness all this was told with a masterful art at once delightful andengaging; Then, too, there was the winsome, lovely portrait of the marvellously beautiful and devoted wife who inspired him and watched over him and loved him as long as life lasted and who made him what he was all this too was presented in the most bewitching tints and loveliest colors and will dwell with the beholder for many a year to come. Burke, Pitt, Fox and Windham were all sketched briefly, felicitously, aptly.

The trial of Warren Hastings, and the burial of Sheridan in the Great Abbey were described most impressively, most vividly: But we need not write more, for it is impossible tor us if time and space were at our com mand to reproduce the effects of the admirable lecture, so replete with many excellencies. It was worthy of the great theme and the very gifted speaker. Dr. Milburn left immediately after the Jeetvre for Charleston, C. Tie made many friends whilst here.

We shall be glad to see him in Wilmington again. May a kfcid and merciful and watchful Providence ever attend him, and at the last day may he stand with the redeemed and glorified in the presence of the Master, who can say to those bereft of sight on earth, as Tie said in the primal morning of the world, "Let there be light and light was." 17. 8.

There was a large number present by invitation, including quite a sprinkling of whites. The exercises consisted of music, declamation, etc. and the crowning of the "Queen of May."

Wm It Carelessness or Otherwise On Monday morning last, near the "cor ner of Fifth and Mulberry streets, a little girl, while on her way to school, was stricken in the back by a rock thrown by one of three boys who were behind her. The act of striking her may have been accidental, but at the same time she may have sustained serious injury, as was the case with a little girl in this city somo years ago, who was thus stricken in her own yard, and was so badly injured that she subsequently died from the effects.

It only shows the great importance of carefulness on the part of boys who are in the habit of throwing rocks. We are assured that if it can be ascertained that the striking was intentional, and the guilty party can be identified, he will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. How it Works. We have had two days of the free delivery service, and we understand that it has worked smoothly and satisfactorily to officials and people. We have every reason to believe that the service will prove a source of much convenience and benefit to Wilmington.

If we do not fully realize this fact right at the start we shall no doubt be abundantly convinced of it before very long. Wilmington's growing population and importance entitle her to such benefits and attentions from the government, and we trust all are satisfied with the position, we are taking among the big cities. There should next be a move made in the matter of securing suitable public buildings here. Wilmington is certainly sadly deficient in this, particular, so far as U. S.

Government buildings are concerned, and as compared with other cities of the same population. sToreica Kzport from tne Port ofWII- i snlngton for tne month or April. 1 Below we give a statement of the foreign: exports from the port of Wilmington for the month of April, as compiled from the books in the Custom House: otton 2480 bales, weighing 1,163,262 pounds, and valued at $110,755.

One of the most brutal murders record was committed yesterday morning near China Grove, on the public road, almost in sight of the village.
