It is understood that the iron for this road has been ordered and it is expected that track laying will be begun at an early day.' Grape and Banana Hulls. The grape hull nuisance is un abated. There is no ordinance on the subject, so far as we can ascer tain. We have been hammering at this thing for-years past but one Board of .Aldermen seems to be about as indifferent as another. We 'have seen a lady slip on a banana peel and fallAto her knees. It is all right, though, gentlemen, or it will be until somebody slips and receives a serious injury and the city wil probably have to pay the piper. Rapidity and Solidity. Mr. Frank Williams, Paymaster on the Carolina Central Railroad, while on his last trip; up the road took a number of photographic views of 'the road where it was so broken by the : recent cloud burst. No one who has not noted the ground attentively can at all understand how serious the disaster was nor the amount of labor neces sary to put the road in good order again. In all there was 1,750 feet to repair and 1,350 feet of this was trestle work.' Capt. Whisnant was on the spot all of the time, day and night and he has been compliments ed tyy iuany on the rapidity arid solidity of the work. . It required about a weelc to do all of the work but in one place 200 feet of the trestle was repaired in 24 hours. Fire at Maple Hill. We regret very much to learn of the destruction by fire of the resi dence of Mr. Gibson James, -at Maple Hill, in Pender county, on Thursday last, onnthe morning of that day, about 2 or 3 o'clock. Mr. James was aroused by his wife's screams and awoke to find the house in flames. They rushed from the house with the children and their calls for aid brought to their assist -ance a number of tenants on the place, most of whom are colored. These latter were just ; returning from a meeting and they worked valiantly. It was soon apparent that it was too late tosave the house and so all. of the furniture except tha in he kitchen was saved. But the house was a total loss. We do not know that there was any insure ance. Mr. James estimates, his loss at $1,200 and will rebuild, as soon as he can get the lumber. ; Political Note. t;. Our esteemed contemporary, Cab man Jones, informs us that he can not support our nominee, the .mos quito, for the dignified office of national bird. lie says the mos qui to does not soar high enough. Indeed, he says that he has lived in countries where, mosquitoes filled the air chock full down near the earth, yet on , going " up fifteen feet above- the ground he always es caped them. The Post is not an organ. It means to be fair to all parties, and it must say that Cab man Jones, if his testimony be act curate, has presented the only real argument we have heard a gainst the mosquito. Surely tljis proud nation will not accept for its bird one that never flies higher than fifteen feet from the earth However, before we foresake the mosquito we mean to obtain, if possible, the evidence of somebody who has slept in a sec ond or third story room withouta mosquito net lover his (or her) bed.
