In Petersburg, Va.,a most lively dis

Keane, of the Roman Catholic Church,

loved Presiding Elder of the Newbern
District, now pastor of the Front Street

number of his friends here.
Miss Ida Fail, about 44 years old,
was conveyed to the Poor-house last
week, and her condition is truly a sad
one. She has recently become insane,
j '
and at times is so violent that she requires
constant watching to prevent her from
harming herself. We hope that our
county authorities niay be able to procure
her speedy admittance to the asylum.
In Corigres?, on Tuesday j the 4th inst.,
ek-Gov. Brogden presented the memorial
of more than 1,000 citizens of Craven and
adjoining counties, praying Congress to
grant an appropriation for the improve
ment of Neuse and Trent rivers. Gov.
Brogden supported the petitions in a very
patriotic speech, which, we regret, we
have not the space to-day to lay before
our readers. -
During the recent cold spell, a negro
boy was found frozen to death on the road
in Pikeville township. His name was
Enus Coley. Dr. Kirby held an inquest,
and the jury rendered a verdict according
ly.. The boy was subject to fits. There
were evidences a!so Ihat he 'had been
drinking, and he must have fallen on the
roadside in . a helpless condition, where
he lay during the night and froze to
death.
The Washington Press learns that
scjme day last week, Mr. Ed. Laughing
house, of Swift Creek, in Pitt county,
was so unfortunate as to loose his two-story
dwelling by fire. Mr. Laugh inghouse
had been considering the propriety of hav
ing his house insured, but before effecting
it it was consumed. We also learn that
ai, about the same time Mr., J. J. Nobles,
of Marlboro, Pitt county, had two houses
burned; hc however, was insured,
OCR townsman, Mr. Stephen II. Den
mark, has taken the Goldsboro agency for
the sale of B. D. Sea Fowl guano and
Bradley's super phosphate of lime. These
well-known brands stand in the lead of the
commercial fertilizers, and deservngly.
The analysis made recently at Chapel Hill
Experiment Station, puts the commercial
Value of theB. D. Sea Fowl at $36.64
per ton, while"the selling price is only
$35. The super-phosphate is also rated
at; 26 cents per ton more than the selling
price.
THE Raleigh Fiietul of Temperance,
ofj-a recent date, says: Mr. Lrn', the
fauhful and efficient Representative from
Duplin, !has introduced a bill in the House
asking tbr convict labor to drain Angola
Bay, which lies in Duplin and Pender
counties, and which covers 70,000 acres of
the public lands. No money is asked for,
but simply a few of the convicts with
which to do the work. If drained, these
lands would Le worth tens of thousands of
dollars to the school fund of North Caro
lina, as they would at once come into the
market at high prices.
We regret to see that the river and
harbor appropriation bill, as concluded by
the committee at Washington, recom
mends only $15,000 for the Neuse'. We
hope Senator Ransom may again be able
to. do as well lor us as he did last session,
and succeed in having the amount
doubled,, otherwiso there is danger that
the good work will be interrupted tor the
lak of funds. The committee rec
ommends for the Cape Fear river $25,
000; Neuse, $15,000; French Broad,
$5,000; North Landing, $25,000; Nor
folk harbor gets $50,000; Mississippi gets
$500,000; Charleston harbor, $100,000.
The total appropriation is $5,786,000.

Mr. James. H. Fotlm. mail? nor aIavV
of the Messenger in 1871, and who left
for Texas about six years ago, after trying
that State for that length of time, came
to the conclusion that there were no bet
ter lands or fairer prospects for an indus
trious man to make a fortune than was
afforded in the old North State, and last
week he passed here in a wagon en route
for Beaufort county, having wagoned his
family all the way from Texas. He says
that thousands of people have emigrated
from other States into Texas that would
now be glad to get back to ; their old
tramping grounds. We wish friend James
God speed on his return to the old North
State.
The Newbern Nutshell learns that one
one day last week a colored woman named
Pollock, living near Trenton, Jones coun
ty, went out to get some wood, leaving
her three small children in the house, near
a large fire burning on the hearth, and
on her return, shortly, afterwards, she
found the remains of her oldest child, a
daughter of about 10 rears, lying out in
the yard, burned almost beyond recogni
tion. It is supposed her clothing were
ignited at the hearth, and she rushed out
in the yard to call for assistance, when the
breeze fanned the flame and consumed her
clothing almost instantly.
Two negroes named Leath and Brown,
who were getting out shingles near Mr.
Macon Foscue's place, in Jones county,
took a hankering for fresh meat last
week, and went for one of Mr. Foscue's
fine porkers. Mr. Foscue missed his
hog, tracked the thieves to Leath and
Brown's camp and, with Sheriff Smith,
made a tour of inspection, when a portion
of the hog was found concealed under
water near the negroes' camp. Other
evidences of their guilt being found, they
were arrested and committed to jail to
await next term of Jones Courtr
DUPLIN COUNTY.
Death's Work The Late Joel Loftin
and Capt Knight Sickness Prepar
ing for Spring Schools Tlie Legis
, lature No Increase of Jurisdiction
Wanted, dec.
From Our Regular Correspondent.
The last two weeks have been sad days
to many of our citizens. Death has taken
from our midst some of our best and no
blest. Mrs. Mary J. Grimes, of Kenans
ville, a lady of rare qualities in every re
spect, who, though a wife and the mother
of three little children, devoted her time
to the training of the young in the scho0
room to the entire acceptance of her nu
merous patrons and friends, and whose
life was a shining exemplification of the
holy religion she professed in her devo
tion to the Church and to the cause of
virtue and benevolence, died on the 1st
inst , of typhoid pneumonia. ' She had
been a member of the Baptist Church for
the greater part of her life. It is a great
bereavement to the Church and to the
community, but inexpressibly great to
her husband and sweet little children.
Heaven comfort and sustain them !
On the 2d inst, the Bear Marsh com
munity was called upon to mourn, with
his bereaved family, the loss of Joel Lof
tin, Esq., who died in his bed that morn
ing of. heart disease. It is no fulsome
eulogy to say that one of the noblest, the
best, the most generous and most useful
has fallen. He was one of nature's noble
men an honest, just man an humble
devoted Christian gentleman. Our entire
county mourns the sad bereavement. He
had for many years been a member of a
Baptist Church, and his family have the
consolation which the Gospel gives. He
will be sadly missed by his Church, by
the community, by the poor of the neigh
borhood, and this county, which he has
served publicly as well as privately.
In this connection we cannot fail to say
how deeply our people, and particularly
along the railroad, mourn with your com
munity, the death of Captain Knight,
whom we all respected, admired and
loved- In him, the public, as well as the
Railroad Com pany, has suffered an irre
parable loss. Captain Knight was a true
gentleman, a noble and faithful man, and
a Christian, we believe.
Severe colds prevail to an alarming ex
tent, some cases developing into pneu
monia. There is some activity at fome of our
depots on the railroad in the gardening
and trucking business.
The school at Warsaw is receiving en
couraging patronage. There are eleven
boarders in the institution and forty-five
pupils in attendance. The teachers are
doing faithful work, and giving entire
satisfaction. Other students are expect
ed. The town has received acquisition in
the family of Kedar Bryan, Esq. , whose
excellent lady knows how to keep a hotel
something which has been badly needed
at that point for a long time. He has
taken the old hotel property, and will
doubtless inform the public of his inten
tions. The merchants are displaying
more enterprise, and they say patronage
is increasing. Altogether, the" prospects
for the place are decidedly brighter than
for years past. There is no reason why
this should not be one of the most thriv
ing and prosperous villages on the railroad
s uth of Goldsboro, It is in the midst of
a good farming section and the people of
the .surrounding country are intelligent
and prosperous.
To-day (8th) the Legislature has been
in session thirty days, and though a great
deal has been done, yet much that is most
needed remains to be done. While some
salaries and fees ought to be reduced,
there are others which will not bear any
reduction. Every Democratic Legisla ture
has acted in the interests of the people by
reducing such expenses as it was thought
would best bear reduction, consequently
the present General Assembly is only
moving on the old Democratic line in this
mattor, but no huo and cry or desire for
popularity should lend our party to such
an extent in this matter as to lower the
dignity of the Commonwealth or to in
jure the public service. The salaries of
our Judges will bear no reduction, nor
do our people wish their Chief Magistrate
to hold his high office without a sufficient
salary to maintain its dignity. Our party
has never been derilict in this matter, and
all the people desire is reform and re
trenchment in these offices which will not
suffer detriment thereby.
One of the most vital matters, if not
that of most importance, pertains to the
administration of justice. It is very cer
tain that the move to enlare the jurisdic
tion of Just'ces of the Peace is a great
mistake! Instead "of doing so, their ju
risdiction ought to be curtailed every
one of; any experience must - admit this.
Yetg something ought to be done.' . What
is best? Will the Inferior Courts meet
the demands? WV think not. One of
our best and purest Judges told your cor
respondent recently that the Superior
Courts had as much criminal matters on
their dockets in those counties in which
the Inferior Courts had been adopted as
in those in which no such courts are held.
For whose benefit then ate these Inferior
Courts held? i Certainly not for J hat of
the people. The Superior Courts still
have, the same - jurisdiction and as . much
criminal matters, and there is the same
clashing of jurisdiction with civil cases as
without them. Will the adoption of the
old County Courts meet the require
ments of the case ? We think ' not It
would still bo the same thing. We need
a separation of the criminal and civil ju
risdictions, so there will be no clashing of
interests,, and civil suitors? may have an
opportunity of having their cases tried
without ruining them with costs, a large
portion of which is accumulated, while
they are waiting from day to day to see
when the State docket will be over. It
may be that the Inferior Court law may
be so amended as to. meet the case. The
several county governments ought, at
least,, to have the privilege of creating a
court for such counties as desire it of ex
cjusive criminal jurisdiction, with a com
petent J udge choeeft from that or any
adjoining county, at a small salary, with
appeals only directly toQthe j;Supreme
Court, and all jurisdiction to try and de
termine all criminal matters ought to be
taken from Justices of the Peace and
given to it ; and all criminal jurisdiction
taken from the Superior Courts in those
counties adopting such courts, so
that they will try and determine onty civil
issues. The administration of justice
would be much more speedy and certain, ;
and crime thereby prevented, and it
would be much more economical. Ifa com
petent lawyer could not be found in any
county to hold such a court in that county,
one could be obtained from a neighboring
county at a small salary, and he could
still practice in all -other courts, or any
other county. This much at least could
be done, if it is thought inexpedient
td take all criminal jurisdiction away
from i-juperior Courts and create circuits
of exclusive criminal jurisdiction. Not
withstanding the opinion of your corre
spondent Z., expressed in a recent issue,
that we are mistaken in our idea that In
ferior Courts are sham, and the old Coun
tyj Courts humbugs, we still have the
same opinion. That those counties which
adopted them have not abolished them is,
we think, not because of their efficiency,
but because something is confessedly
needed and nothing better is offered, As
to j the efficiency of Judge manly as a
presiding Judge we make no question,
but even in his court, the public interests
cannot be effectually served because of the
defects of the system. Make his court
such as we have suggested, and Craven
county will be blessed with the speedy.
certain and effectual administration of
justice in all its departments at a great
saving to the citizens, and every other
county in the State which desires can have
the same. S.

Departed this life suddenly, of Apo-
51ezy on the morning of 10th inst, Mrs.
Irza Uzzell widow of the late Thos.
Uzzell, in the 57th year of her life.
Though the dark angel came at mid
night and with little or no premonition of
his dire approach, yet he found her with
her " lamp trimmed and burning," ready
to obey his dread summons.
Mrs. Uzzell was a faithful member of
the Primitive BaDtist Church and her
daily walk and conversation were con
formable to her outward profession. The
writer of this feeble tribute to her worth
and memory has. seen her much in the
afflictions of her family, as also .on her
own person ; it is but simple justice to
her character to say that in all the rela
tions of life as wife, mother and friend
she discharged her duties faithfully and
illustrated the beautv and strength of her
christian character. .She leaves behind
a large family of sorrowing children and
friends. May they follow her as she fol
lowed Christ.

THE NEW YORK SUN FOR 1879
The Sim will be printed everr dav dnrme- the
jear to come. Its purpose and method will be
the same as in the past : To present all the news
In a readable ihaue. and to tell thn trnth though
the heavens fall.
Ths Sub has been, Is, and will continue to be
Independent of everybody and everything save
the troth and Its own convictions ofdntv. That Is
the policy which has won for this newspaper the
coDUQcoce anu inenasnipora wider constituency
than was erer enjoyed by any other American
onrnal.
Thk 8uh ii the newspaper of the people. It Is
not for the rich man against the poor man, or
tor the poor man against the rich man, but it
seeks to do equal justice to all interests in the
community. It is not the organ of any person,
olass, sect, or party. There need be no mystery
about its loves and hates. It is for the honest man
against the rogues every time. It is for the hon
est Democrat as against the dishonest Repub
lican, and for the honest Republican as against
the dishonest Democrat. It does not take its
cue from the utterance of any politician or poli
tical organization. It gives its support unre
servedly when men or measures are in agree
ment with the Constitution and with the prin
ciples upon which this republic was founded for
the people. Whenever the Constitution and
constitutional principles are violated as in the
outrageous conspiracy of 1876, by which a man
not elected was placed in the President's office,
where he still remains it speaks out for the
right. That is Ths Sun's idea of Independence.
In this respect there will be no change in its
programme for 1879.
Thk 8uh has fairly earned the hearty hatred
of rascals, frauds, and humbugs of all sorts and
siaes. It hopes to deserve that hatred' not less in
the year 1879 than in the year 1878, 1877, or any
year gone by. Thk Suh is printed for the men
and women of to-day, whose concern is chiefly
with the affairs of to-day. It has both the dis
position and the ability to afford its readers the
promptest, fullest and most accurate intelligence
of whatever in the wide world is worth atten
tion. To this end the resources belonging to
well-established prosperity v. ill be liberally em
ployed. The present disjointed condition of parties in
this country, and the uncertainty of the future,
lend an extraordinary significance to the events
of the cominc year. To present with accuracy
and clearness the exact situation in each of lis
varying phases, and to expound, accord ins: to its
well-known methods, the principles that should
guide ns through the labyrinth, will be an im
portant part of Thk Suit's work for 1S79.
We have the means of making Thk Sun, as a
political, a literary, and a general newspaper,
more entertaining and more useful than ever be
fore; and we mean to apply them freely.
Our rates of subscription lemaln unchanged.
For the Daila Bun, a four-page sheet of twenty
eight columns, the price by mail, postpaid, is
55 cents a month, or S6.50 a year: or including
the Sunday paper, an eight-page sheet of fifty-six-columns,
the price is 65 eents a month, or
7.70 a year, postage paid.
The Sunday edition oi the Sua is also furnish
ed separately at S51.80 a year, postage paid.
The bunDAT Suh, in addition to the current
news, presents a most entertaining and instruct
ive body of literary and miscellaneous matter, in
bulk twice as great and in value not inferior to
that ot the best monthly magazines of the day,
at one tenth of their cost.
The Wkkkxy Suh is especially adapted for
those who do not take a New York daily paper.
The news of the week is fully presented, its
market reports are turnisnea to tne latest mo
ment, and its agricultural department, edited
with great care and ability, is unsurpassed. The
Wkkklt Sun Is probably read to-day by more
farmers than any other paper published. A choice
story, with other carefully prepared miscellany,
appears in each issue. The Weekly protects Its
readers by barring its advertising columns
against frauds and humbugs, and furnishes
more good matter for less money than can be ob
tained from any other source.
The price of the Wkkklt Sun, eight pages,
fifty-six columns, is SI a year, postage paid. For
clubs of ten sendirg SIO we will send an extra
copy free. Address I. W. ENGLAND,
Publisher of Thk Sun. New Ycrk City.

" It is not a vile, nauseous compound,
which simplT purges the bowels, but a safe,
pleasant remedy, which is sure to purify the
blood, and thereby restore the health."
" Strikes at the root of disease by purify
ing the blood, restoring the liver and kid
neys t healthy action, invigorating the
whole systom."
"Does not deceive invalids Into false h opes
by purging and creating a fictitious appe
tite, but assists nature in cleansing and pu
rifying the whole system, leading tbe pa
tient surely to perfect health."
" Was looked upon as an experiment for
some time by some of our best physicians,
but those most incredulous are now its most
ardent friends and supporters, and are pre
scribing it in their practice."
" Instead of being a puned-up medicine, It
has worked its way up to its present aston
ishing success by actual merit, in curing all
diseases of the blood, stomach, liver and
kidneys, of whatever nature."
" Is acknowledged and recommended by
Ehysiclans to be the best purifier of the
lood yet discovered, and thousands speak
in its praise who have been restored to
health by by them.
