he Press Convention lield ap'oas
, profitable and enjoyable session
New lierne last wek in spile of
ie anticipated excitement.
Craven county will have to pay
expenses of 450 State troops wbich
the Sheriff asked the Governor to
send,
Tlc most uncalled for thing wc
have known yet was the calling for
Stale troops at New Heme before the
negroes made any resistance or at
tempted any disorder.
The Washington Military Com-.
pany will ever think of their trip to
New lire and the James City trouble
with the negroes with sad regret,
.Thursday evening while on a parade
Col. Bogart was thrown from a horse
and fractured his brcin. All the
medical attendance both from his
own. physician and the skill of New
Mem could not save him. About
2 o'clock Thursday night he died.
He was Colonel of the 1st regiment
and held in the highest esteem.
Wednesday the trouble between
Mr, James Bryan of New Berne, and
James City negroes came to an arric
able settlement. Mr. Bryan submit-,
ted this contract to them which the"
have accepted : That he would lease
them the bouses for 3 years from
twcntyfive cents to one dollar per
month and they have the priyilige of
moving the houses and all improve
merits otf any time within that period
if they pay the rent for the full terra
of the lease. Most of the negroes
have signed the contract, and those
who have not will do it. So the
much suspected excitement has clos
ed without-firing a gun.

with a daughter, four years old. Last
April she was taken down with Meas
les, followed with a dreadful Cough
and turning inco a Fever. Doctors
at home and at Detroit treated her,
but in vain, she grew worse rapidly,
until she was a mere "handful of
bones." Then she tried Dr. Kind's
New Discovery for Consumption and
after the use of twa and a half bot
ties, was completely cured. They
say Dr. King's New Discovery is
worth its weight in gold, yet you may
