TO OUR READERS 
 
 "Remember, we know well only the great nations whose books we 
 possess; of others we know nothing, or but little." 
 
 This Directory of the city of Wilmington is issued to sup- 
 ply a long felt need. In its make-up we have endeavored to 
 gather such reasonably complete information as is usually 
 looked for in a publication of this description. The work has 
 been done with the greatest care and yet we feel and realize that 
 some errors and omissions may have found, and unavoidably so, 
 their way into its pages. These we regret, but they are attribu- 
 table to the difficulties which surrounded the gathering in of the 
 information, and which beset every effort of this kind. In the 
 canvass for the population and in the compilation of the work we 
 were assisted by Messrs. W. H. Gerken and R. J. Lewis, of this 
 city, who have labored with much zeal and efficiency. 
 
 We trust the Directory will prove of incalculable benefit not 
 only to our home people, but also to the business men abroad.

WILMINGTON IN 1889, 
 
 Chief among the important considerations necessary to the 
 growth and development of a city, is favorable geographical posi- 
 tion. By this we mean such a situation with respect to territory 
 and transportation facilities as to make it the general marketplace 
 and supply depot of an extensive region of country. 
 
 It seems hardly necessary to dwell for a moment on the im- 
 portance of this advantage. Experience throughout the world 
 and in all ages in which commerce has flourished, from Carthage 
 to the ancient time of Venice in the middle ages, and from Venice 
 to our own times, has shown that it alone is sufficient to rear and 
 support a great city. It is due to her magnificent position be- 
 tween Europe and Asia, and between the Mediterranean and the 
 Black sea, that Constantinople has for centuries been the chief 
 city of the East, and the imperial center of the Turkish empire. 
 It is the inter-continental position of the Mediterranean that made 
 its shores the home of most of the great cities of antiquity and 
 still adorns them with the fair Naples with her 500,000 inhabi- 
 tants ; with Marseilles, numbering over 350,000; with Genoa, 
 Smyrna, Alexandria and hundreds of others. 
 
 In China we find Canton situated on the Chinese sea with her 
 1,750,000; in Hindoostan on the Bay of Bengal is Madras with 
 nearly half a million. In Germany on the Elbe, with its outlet 
 to the sea, is Hamburg with her 500,000, and coming to our own 
 country, at the mouth of the beautiful Hudson are New York 
 and Brooklyn with their 2,500,000; and last, but greater than 
 any of them, stands the imperial London on the Thames with 
 about 4,000,000 souls. 
 
 It is the geographical position of these cities — their situation 
 with respect to trade interests — that has contributed more than

 anything else to make them what they are. Where a city is 
 favored with this advantage to more than an ordinary degree, its 
 future is assured, if but her citizens will make proper use of the 
 advantages presented. 
 
 To one at all acquainted with the resources of the South, and 
 particularly this portion of North and South Carolina, it is only 
 necessary to take a glance at the map to realize the future of 
 Wilmington. Here she stands at the very portal of one of the 
 finest cotton and rice producing regions in the world. On the 
 one hand is the mighty Ocean system giving her transportation 
 as far as the winds that blow to every clime; on the other lies her 
 railways radiating in many directions throughout the State and 
 adjacent States, pouring into her lap an immense commerce- 
 Already a large and prosperous city, it seems that nature and 
 civilization have conspired to make Wilmington in the not far 
 distant future one of the greatest cities on the South Atlantic 
 Coast. 
 
 No one can visit Wilmington and fail to be impressed with the 
 
 may signs and growing indications of wealth and prosperity 
 
 which abound on every hand. Here will be found all public 
 
 buildings and institutions usual to a great commercial city, as for 
 
 instance, a United States Custom House, a handsome new United 
 
 States Court House and Post Office building, now in course of 
 
 erection, United States Marine Hospital, Seaman's Home and 
 
 Bethel, City Hospital, United States Signal Service Station, three 
 
 daily newspapers, five weekly and one monthly publications, 
 
 nearly fifty churches, twenty-eight public and private schools, 
 
 ample banking facilities, four railroads completed, and two others 
 
 under construction, a number of prosperous industries, and the 
 
 city boasts of a large number of the handsomest and most costly 
 
 residences in the State. The city has its street railway, telephone 
 
 conveniences, and excellent fire department, water and gas 
 
 works, and is lighted by electricity.

 The advantages and attractions of the city as a place of resi- 
 dence are unsurpassed by no city of equal population in the 
 Union. The climate is delightful, health excellent, the society is 
 cultivated and refined, the city is most orderly, educational 
 facilities are both excellent and abundant. Several of the church 
 edifices are very fine specimens of architecture; they have large 
 congregations and their pulpits are supplied by pastors of repu- 
 tation and ability. 
 
 The population of the city is now about 25,000.

SOME ATTRACTIONS. 
 
 The following are some of the many splendid attractions that 
 should be seen and enjoyed by all who wish a season of rest and 
 healthful recreation. As resorts they are unsurpassed by any on 
 the South Atlantic Coast. 
 
 WRIGHTSVILLE SOUND. 
 
 This well-known and popular resort, eight miles from the city' 
 will during the present season, receive a much larger attention 
 from pleasure and health-seekers than ever before, as one of the 
 results of the completion of the Sea Coast Railroad from this city 
 to that place. Wrightsville has always been popular, and has 
 greatly increased in popularity since the completion of the turn- 
 pike from the eastern limits of the city to the Sound. This turn- 
 pike, which is heavily ballasted with oyster shells its entire length, 
 affords one of the finest and most pleasant drives that can be 
 found in North Carolina. It is as hard as though it were 
 McAdamized, is bordered nearly its entire length with pines, 
 whose fragrant odors are delightful, exhilerating and bracing, and 
 the line of the road is sufficiently crooked to relieve the tourist 
 from a weary monotony. The Wilmington Sea Coast Railroad 
 and the Ocean View Railroad are ready to take visitors to the 
 Sound. 
 
 Another advantage lies in the fact that, by means of the rail- 
 road, the pleasure seeker can go direct to the beach without extra 
 expense. On this beach the Carolina Yacht Club have their 
 house and here also is the new, large and elegant Hammocks 
 Hotel, for the accommodation of visiting guests, and in the 
 waters adjacent is the favorite yachting course where there will 
 be during the season, several exciting and interesting regattas. 
 Its proximity to the city, with its easy and cheap accessibility by

 railroad, together with the fact that it is connected with the city 
 by telephone make this a desirable resort. There are plenty of 
 fish of almost every variety in the waters of the Sound and ocean 
 and an abundance of good oysters in their season. 
 
 CAROLINA BEACH. 
 
 This pleasant resort, which sprung into existence as if by 
 magic in the summer of 1887, possesses attractions which at 
 once made it extremely popular with the people. Although the 
 accommodations there last year were limited in extent, as they 
 naturally would be with only a few months — we might say weeks 
 of preparation, yet it was a popular resort for those who would 
 spend a day from the cares and duties of every day life, and while 
 away a few hours by the seaside, where they could view the 
 grandeur, the majesty and the power of old ocean as her waves 
 dashed upon the shore, to the deep anthem of the unceasing 
 roar of the breakers. A short ride on the waters of the Cape 
 Fear, and a shorter ride of less than two miles on the railroad, 
 constructed across the peninsula, from the river to the beach, 
 and the weary pleasure-seeker is away from the noise, tumult 
 and dust of the city, and on one of the finest ocean beaches along 
 the South Atlantic Coast. It was visited t by many thousands last 
 year, and will probably be resorted to by a largely increased 
 number during the present season. 
 
 Many additions and improvements have been made for the bet- 
 ter accommodation of visitors, and the facilities for reaching the 
 beach have been greatly increased by the addition of the splen- 
 did steamer Sylvan Grove, with her accommodations for 500 pas- 
 sengers, which make daily excursions there during the season. 
 
 The fame of the beach spread from one end of the State to the 
 other and even into South Carolina and Georgia. The means for 
 bathing, fishing or sailing are excellent, and it is peculiarly free

 a good southwest breeze blowing, which coming in from the sea, 
 is cool, refreshing and enjoyable. 
 
 The Ocean View Railroad Company has begun the erection of 
 a hotel and eating house at the Masonboro terminus of their road. 
 It will have a handsome dining room 80x30 feet, and will be 
 about thirty feet from the pavillion and connecting with it by a 
 wide platform. It will be known as "'The Breeze House," and 
 will be under the management of Mrs. Mayo, who has a reputa- 
 tion that will certainly draw those fond of good cooking and good 
 things. 
 
 "THE ROCKS." 
 
 The "Rocks," so called from the fact of the immense pile of 
 stone that has been placed there, by which New Inlet has been 
 effectually closed for the passage of vessels, is twenty miles from 
 Wilmington and more than half way between this city and the 
 mouth of the river. It has become quite a popular pleasure re- 
 sort on account of the splendid fishing it affords, and its excellent 
 opportunities for bathing and boat sailing. The hotel accommo- 
 dations at "The Rocks" are very good, and they will be improved 
 as occasion may demand. The place suffers for the want of shade 
 trees, but this lack is in a measure compensated for by the cool 
 southwest breezes which prevail nearly all the time. Large 
 quantities of fish are caught here and many of our citizens find a 
 visit to the place both pleasant and profitable. It is easy of ac- 
 cess, and the probability is that the list of visitors will be much 
 larger during the present season than in any previous year. 
 
 LAKE WACCAMAW. 
 
 On the Wilmington, Columbia & Augusta Railroad, thirty-six 
 miles from Wilmington, is the pretty village of Lake Waccamaw, 
 near which is the beautiful sheet of water from which the village

 derives its name. The path from the village to the lake is across 
 a beautiful green plateau of land on the premises of Mr. H. B. 
 Short, to a secluded dell where, surrounded by magnificent for- 
 est trees, nestles one of the most attractive sheets of water in 
 North Carolina. It is a favorite resort for pleasure parties from 
 both North and South Caroiina. The lake abounds with fish of 
 almost every fresh water variety, while the surrounding forests 
 abound with birds and all kinds of game from squirrels to bears. 
 Many hunting parties visit the place for the purpose of gunning, 
 and have fine sport in roving the forests and in fishing in the gen- 
 erous waters of the Lake. 
 
 All these places which we have named receive a generous pat- 
 ronage during the heated season, and there is every indication 
 that the number of visitors to all of them will be largely in 
 creased during the present season.

 "ATLANTIC VIEW" 
 
 / V WRIGHTSVILLE, N. C. 
 
 ED. WILSON MANNING, 
 
 PROPRIETOR. 
 
 §S LOCATED near the water, and commands a beautiful view of 
 the Atlantic Ocean. The Wrightsville depot of the Sea Coast 
 Railroad from Wilmington adjoins my enclosure and is but a few 
 ' \~? steps from the Hotel. We make no charge for transportation of 
 baggage. 
 
 Besides railroad facilities for reaching Wilmington, eight or ten 
 times a day, there is a beautiful shell road from my place to the city, 
 a distance of eight miles. The Ocean View Railroad train runs from 
 my place to the Hammocks and down the Beach at short intervals during 
 the day and night, thus affording visitors all the privileges of 
 
 SURF BATHING AND SIGHT-SEEING 
 
 on the beach without being compelled to remain there any longer than 
 is desired. 
 
 BATH HOUSES FOR STILL WATER BATHING 
 
 at our own landing, within 300 feet of the house. Boats for sailing on 
 the Sound or on the Ocean, and fishing in the Sound or at sea. Daily 
 mail and telegraph communication to all parts of the world. The per- 
 manent grounds for the 
 
 STATE ENCAMPMENT 
 
 with its battery of heavy guns is located so near that the drilling of the 
 State Guard can be viewed from my place. We have good drinking 
 water; splendid sea breezes and a supply of 
 
 FISH, OYSTERS, CRABS, SHRIMPS AND CLAMS 
 
 in their seasons. 
 
 The rooms in the Main Building and Cottages are well arranged for 
 ventilation. 
 
 THE DANCING PAVILION 
 
 Is made attractive by music, beauty and pleasure during the evenings. 
 THE CLUB HOUSE, 
 
 Pool and Billiard Tables and Bowling Alley, are outside of the premises 
 and kept in good style. 
 
 Terms for Board are Reasonble with Special Rates 
 for Families. 
 
 A glance at these advantages for a Summer Resort must convince 
 anyone that there is no place on the coast that presents a greater variety 
 of means for enjoyment than 
 
 "ATLANTIC VIEW," WRIGHTSVILLE, N. C. 
 
 The mildness of the climate during the Winter months will make 
 this one of the most attractive Winter Resorts on the coast. 
 
JAMES D. NUTT, Druggist, 218 N. Front St. Beyond doubt, cheapest place 
 in the city to buy Drugs and everything pertaining to a first-class store.

 The table of domestic exports embraces shipments 
 North and east by water and rail and consumption by 
 our mills. Some of the cotton forwarded North was 
 shipped on through bills of lading foreign, but has not 
 been so treated in the compilation of statistics at this 
 port.

 bales. The above shows an increase of 23,093 bales • 
 over last year. ~ 
 
 The comparative statement of the shipment of cotton c 
 from this port for seasons, at intervals since 1856, shows ~ 
 further progress in our cotton traffic. Up to 1866 the 
 shipments, as will be noted in our table, were all coast 
 wise. In 1866, 162 bales went foreign and from that 
 time there has been a gradual increase, the shipments of 
 the past season aggregating 121,903 bales, or an increase 
 when compared to the season of i886-'87 of 12,212 bales. 
 The same comparison as to coastwise shipments shows 
 an increase of 22,944 bales.

BLACRWELL'S 
 
 Durham Tobacco, 
 
 I have been for over twenty years a con- 
 stant smoker. I find in Blackwell's Durha ... 
 that true excellence found in no other brand — 
 uniformity ; every package being the same. I 
 can smoke it at all times, day and night, with 
 impunity; it acts as a mild and pleasant stimu- 
 ant, always quiets my nerves, and in no way 
 disagrees with me. It is a great comforter, 
 a ^ure, sweet and mild smoke.

 produced. We are in position to command the choice of all offerings
