BARKER New Berne Journal. Our community was startled last night at the news, which quickly spread through the city of the sudden death of Dr. W. H. Barker, which oc curred at about 9 o'clock at the resi dence of Mr. Thos. Daniels, where he and Mrs. Barker were on an evening visit. A few days ago while walking along the street in company with Mr. Dan iels, he fainted and sank to the ground, but soon recovered. For some time past he has told his friends that his days on earth were but few: that he was ready to pass over the riyer. He died suddenly of organic disease of the heart. Dr. Barker was by profession a phre nologist and a man of keen intellect, great depth of thought and always impressed nisauuience wnen speaKing "u uiauers wu.uiugms ,Uo V j &nd came to this eountrv when ouite young.

We cannot do him justice in this brief notice. A good and useful man has been suddenly cut off. His bereaved family have the sympathy of the community 3IUKDEB TRIAL.

The News and Observer says of the pro- .. 1 nr' ... 1. - .f.;v- i . 4- . . in the United States Circuit court yesterday; Judges Bond and .Seymour heard the case of Temples vs State of North Carolina and W.'P. Roberts, auditor, which involves . the right of the holders of the special tai bonds is sued in 1868 and 1869 to enforce the collection of the taxes that were levied by the same acts of' assembly - under which the bonds were issued. The State entered a special appear ance for the purpose of moving to dis miss the suit for want of jurisdiction: xuo mouon was aoiy supporiea Dy Mr. R. H. Battle and Maj. Jno. W. Graham, counsel for the State, and Mr. Edward L. Andrews, of Nw TL. J.Z 1 1 - . - , York, and S. F. Phillips, of Washing ion, opposed it with elaborate ' argu L . . ment, in this case the very novel question arises whether a States can be sued bv a citizen of the State. when his Federal rights have bieen in vaded by alleged unconstitutional leg islation. "" Argument began at 3 o'clock p. m. and after adjournment at 5 o'clock was resumed at 8 o'clock and contin ued until 11 o'clock last night. The case will be again heard upon the right to the relief demand, which is a mandatory injunction restraining the auditor from obeying alleged uncon stitutional legislation of the State in regard to the collection of the speeial taxes. The case of Morton, Bliss & Co. vs Roberts, Auditor, which was removed from the State court and in which a mandamus is prayed for, directing the auditor to provide in the tax lists for collection of the special taxes will be neara to-day. PUBLICATIONS. The Forum for December, is a strong rumber, containing as it does ten able articles by distinguished writers on live subjects. W. S. Lilly opens in an article on ''The Present Outlook of Christianity," in which he takes the ground that the greatest peril of the present age lies in this that those who profess to be teachers of religion and defenders of the faith so seldom en deavor honestly to follow out the lines ot thought familiar to earnest and cul tivated men of the world. President E. J. Robinson writes on "How I Was Educated;" Prof. Lester F. Ward on "Broadening the Way to Success." Francis Minor on "Woman's Legal Right to the Ballot;" Judge Edward A. Thomas "About Wills and Testa ments;" Major J. W. Powell on "The Cause of Earthquakes;" Philip G. Hu ber, Jr., "An Interviewer on Inter viewing;" Rev. Dr. L. W. Bacon "The Alternative of Prohibition;" Howard Crosby, "A Letter to the people of New York," and an anonymous au thor contributes the "Confessions of a Methodist." The articles in this number are all so fine that each one tempts to copi ous extracts. We commend especially the articles of W. S. Lilly, Rev. Dr. Bacon, and the anonymous article, Confessions of a Methodist. We must refer to this number again. A ROUGH WINTER. Prof. Proctor, a weather prophet, of Iowa sometime since predicted that we are to have a rough winter, and so far, the start is good. The Professor says: To be forewarned is almost equal to being well armed. Following; the droutp will be a long, cold, stormy winter, with a large amount of snow. There will be some beautiful weath- er between this ana tne miaaie or December, and then, for at least three months, extreme cold and snow block ades. Of course the cold will not be con tinuous, but during all this long pe riod there will be no general thaw, as we often have the last of January or in February. Suh winters always cause great suffering to man and beast, and the wise will provide plenty ot fuel, repair their dwellings and prepare good shelter for stock. He foretold the great drouth of this year many months before it com menced, and the forces that control the drouth also control the winters as to their severity or mildness There is no superstition, no guess work, no astrology about these pre dictions, but the calculations are made from what is known of the laws ot nature, and if mistakes occur it is from miscalculations, as m any other mathematical problem.
