Ransom of Craven oounty, cadet to West Point with Robert Dunn of Lenoir, alternate. ..It is understood that Mr. Simmons has been led to give these young men another chance, chiefly because their appointment being so soon before the examination, which was very rigid, they had but little time to prepare themselves. It is said out of the large class examined st that time not one who had not been thoroughly coached and prepared by trainers at tbe Academy suooeeded in getting through. We think it ia highly proper that these boys should have another trial. They reached tbe Academy only a very short time before they were put upon , the examination and had no chanoe to brush up as did those who got in sooner, and besides they only failed on apparently immaterial things such as spelling and writing. This commu nity is highly gratified at the reap pointment of our young townsman, who is a bright and wot thy youth. What It Proves. Nothing is so interesting to people generally as politics. This is shown by the number of papers in the country de voted to politioal news and discussions. There are hundreds of successful po litical papers to one successful agricul tural paper. Does this prove that farm ers are more interested in politics than in farming t Vt do they get more real help from political than from agricultu ral papers? Goldsboro Argus. It proves that a large majority of farmers learn what tbey know about farming by actual experience: they are taught by their fathers and they think they know more about it than the man who edits an agricultural paper. They take a newspaper to learn the news, and not to read about that which tbey already know and follow every day or their lives. To read a good, live newspaper after a week's steady work on the farm ia refreshing, and in fact a luxury to a hard .working farmer. But to dig potatoes all day and pick up a paper at night and read until bed time how some other fellow that never dug a hill in his life, dug his is not a pleasure. The agricul tural papers are not as interesting to our farmers as the political or newspapers, whioh contain farm articles as well as tbe news. Meeting of Citizens Last Night. A good number of citizens assembled at the Exchange rooms last night to dis cuss a matter of very great interest to New Berne. Mr. Geo. Allen was oalled to the chair and Mr. J. U. Smith was made secre tary. Hon. F. M. Simmons was requested to explain the objects of the meeting. He did so in a brief speech, stating that he understood the object to be to dis cuss the propriety of taking some steps towards extending the A. & N. C. R. to the O. F. ft Y. V. R. A proposition to appoint a committee to act in concert with a committee from the counties of Carteret, Pamlioo, Ie noir and Wayne to present the matter of extension to the Governor, brought on a running discussion whioh lasted for sometime. No one doubted the propriety of making the extension, but what steps to take, and in what man ned to move waa the topio of disoussion. Stirring 'speeches were made by Hon. M. Simmons, S. H. Gray, J.J- Wolfenden, Jonathan Havens, Presi dent Washington, Bryan, P. H. Pelle tier, T. A. Green and others. Mr. J. J. Wolfenden moved that a Ojmmlttee be Appointed by the ehair to go to Raleigh and submit to the Gov ernor a plan for extending the A. & N. C. B. The motion was adopted. . VA committee consisting of F.

Anv one knowing anything of him will do a great kindness by writing Patrick Lsnnon as above indicated. GREKX MAURlXd NCMBEH 9. In the treatment of this subject some of tbe articles will not be confined strictly to green manuring. Farming issucn a aivereiweu suojeci mai various divisions will be found profitable. Tbe following thought was given by a learned man in a recent speech before a cultured audience, and is so applicable to the sons and daughters of farmers that we reproduce it. He said: "We have expended enormous sums of money in the development of the ma terial resources of this country and have rejoiced in the immense wealth of our mines, fields snd forests. Yet the real source of tbe great strength snd wealth of this nation lies in the brain and thought of tbe people, and tbe richest minds of undeveloped wealth are the boys and girls. If we develop their minds and teach them proper methods of labor, they in turn will de vote their energies and brains to de veloping tbe material resources of this great land." Every farmer will find it profitable to make experimente,and to record tbe re sults, and to use every effort to interest bis children in the subject of farming. Show them bow to work in the best manner and at the proper time. In less than half A century the children will own the whole world, And they must be prepared to make the most profitable use of it. Books on All subjects ere very cheap. Agricultural magazine And news papers are the beet investment that can be nude by the farmer. There never was a time when so many able Articles on the subject of Agriculture could be obtained. One ben properly eared for by one of the children will furnish from the sale of eggs and chickens the money to pay for the N. O.
