EniTOit: I have to day rend a cbmmun'cation over the signature of "h" concerning oysters, oysters gardens etc. As tho representative1 of this county iu lS8'i, tho year, that tho oyster law was revised, 1 fool called upon to tell what wo considered a natural oyster bodtlion; ok wo talked the matter over in tho commit-' tec room. By reference to the Journal, it will be! seen that Senator Clark of Craven, offered a substitute for tho original bill and all tho committee woro In favor of tlio substitute except Thompson . of Onslow, and myself, wo favored tho original bill be cause it did not allt.w aty iiifringcmcpt ou the rights of the citizens. Tlio bill be came a law notwithstanding tho commit tee's report was in favor of tho substitute The law, as it passed 'actually forbid, tho ontoring of any natural oyster,, ImsL and what we considered a natural oyster bod; was any plaoo whero oysters grow in euf ffoient quantities to bo caught for: market tor for farcily awpport. Wo did not even ccnsilor a rock ft natural oyster 1od, for of us ufjW mrtflfc. of our OV8tof . - rvyks vtrt wotthls?ft far as furnUhiug market tenters. My own personal kmwleilgcff tfw woVr f Qurteret coua ty teach mo that most of tbe oyster boeli that ate now under grants, or icn.o aro worthless, If tho spirit of the law of 18WJf, taken up, was carried out Nearly nil th bods on North river, and Coro sound aro on regular oysteriug grpund; where the oitizens have been depending for their broad duriug: tho Winter and Spring'. These things uro hot tight and now that tho matter is thrown into tho hands pf the County commissioners', they ought to sco that tho rights of each citizen, la pro tected . Of courso I am not at all interes ted in th5 matter, only for the cuetfll interest of tluJ Couoty, as' OOjS pf ler citi zens but because I was" rcpre&cptirig tb county at (hat time LuTO .1 fpoken and what I Ii'ivo said may gd for what it Is worth w hether little or much.' , ..
