BETrEWi A Grand New Enterprise Oar readers have heard something of lhe large purchase made to' a part of Northern Capiialisu; from Buffalo. N. V.. of lands in Tyrrell and Dave counties, in this State. Well, it e ecru a to be an accomplished tact. . The , land are there and thy have been sold and Mr. Henry S. 5 "Seevos9, resident of this city some years ago, n clover gentleman wiio has stiit many warm personal friends left heie.' and. a thors ough going business- man. who has been well trained for the . work bev will have to do has been fe ap pointed manager of the enterprise, Mr. Srvoss left Wilmington some time during the latter part of the last decade and has since been resident, first in New Itrunswick and afterward in Can" ada and more lately in .Michigan, tie i a thorough North Carolinian, by adoption'and we know that in getting back to the old Stale one of the dearest wishes ot his heari has bee tt accom plished , We publish herewith some parts of a description of the new enterprise, as taken from the Buffalo Oommxfcial Jdverliser: Within tho paat month a syndicate f local lumbermen have bought, and paid fr. a targe tract of well known Carolina pine lands. Tho magnitude of the transaction can be oetter appro ciated when it is staled that tho tract is over 250.0ti0 acres in extent, compris ing the greater part of Dare, and a large slice of Tyrrell counties'. North Caro lina. The price paid was over $750,000. The syndicate has been incorporated under the taws of the State, under the name ot The Eastern - Carolina, Laud, Lumber aud Manufacturing Couipauy The eharier given the company is . ex ceedingly liberal in its conditions, giv ing them every privilege, in the power ot the State, save the establishment of banks. As may be surmised lrom the names ol the parties interested the principal business of the new company will be lhe cutting and transportation of lumber tp the Eastern markets. Competent appraisers who- have been sent down to examine the property re port an immense quantity of yellow piue. 'cypress and white cedar timber on the tract Taking tho value of the timber. land and other considerations into view they estimate the. yatue of the property at over $3.000.000 The com pany do not intend to let thtf grass grow under their feet, but will push the work forward as rapidly; as possible. Arrangements . have already been per fected for the erection of a standard gauge railroad, within the limits of the tract, and a system ot passenger boats, barges, &c, owned by the company, has been arranged so as to aflord daily communicatijn with Elizabeth City and Now York In this particular they ardtortunale. The only method of com munication is by water and navigation is never suspended, even in Winter. Four saw mills with a capacity of 200, 000 feet daily will be put to work in September, as a starter, with more to follow as the work- progresses More strictly speaking the company has acquired 170.000 acres in .Dare county and the balance nf the 250.000 acres in Tyrrell county, across the way, the Alligator river separating the two. The Dare county tract is bounded on the north by Albemarle Sound, on the south by Hydocounty, on the east by Pamlico Sound,and on the west by the Alligator river, and has a water front of seventy miles. It is heavily timbered, the unbroken forest repre senting a range of twenty-six miles iong by ten miles wide. In addition to the timber resources of , the property the company have other sources of rev enue in view The title to a valuable shad fishery which, during the past year, yielded a net profit of $-20,000, was also ono of the perquisites of their purchase. In addition the whole area ot the Dare county tract is underlined to a depth of from four to. five feet with a bed of blue shell marl, not inferior for fertilizing purposes to the celebrated marine deposits of South Carolina, Deposits similar to this are used almost entirely by. the fertilizing , works throughout the country, and he min ing and transportation of this deposit to market will be one of the tn"St profita ble features of the enterprise. Even after the timber is removed the greater part of tbel laud wilt be available tor farming purposes and highly valuable, owing to the fertility ot the soil and heallhtulness of the climate. A special value attaches itselLto these landa ou account of their near proximity to New York andotHer "markets. ' Vegetables and perishable fruit shipped from Buffalo City in the morning would reach the New York market next day. Tlie transportation by water is either through tbe Sound and Albermarleand Chesapeake canal, or by sea route via Nags head. That the venture will Drove imtuentefV' profitable.- there -is little doubt. The gentlemen interested have ai read y under con siderai i n an offer of $600 noo for 'the stuaiDa.se on the Tyrrell county tract, 'and more they can read their - 'title to the properly Ijewis Jackson . and Ransom Mc Millan. odtred. charired with an affray, were sentenced to pay a fine of $10 tack, or $Vlay ton the'-streeta' - i ' Mary E.

Thigpen. ot the firm of High & Tbigpeu. at Chad bourn, is iu the city to day and favored us with , a pleasant visit this forenoon, a s a rom htm we learn of several itemsJ of interest relative to bis thriving little town. The crop?, Mr. Thigpen tells us, are all that they haye been reported and as a consequence "everybody is happy. Chad bourn is in the midst of a splendid farming secUon and good crops there mean prosperity for all. The Wilmington, Chadbourn & Con way R. R is being pushed forward vigorously and it is now constructed to withiu 0 miles of Conway This means 28 miles of railway from'Chadbourn. The Chadbourn Times, which has been suspended for a few months past, is to be revived, under the direction of its founder, Mr. H, S. McEachern who has not been connected with it ol late, rue merchants of the town are interested in its revival and will '' d their best to make it a success. Business has'been good at Chadbourn this Summer and tho 'outlook for a fine I Fall trade is so encouraging that Messrs. High & Thigpen have conclud ed to enlarge their already roomy and handsome store by extending it 25 feet to tho rear. This will bo done at once. Mr. J. A. Brown, a-successful mer chant in Chadbourn and a public-spir, ited, enterprising citizen, will soon be gin the erection of a handsome new. hotel building, the want of which is being seriously felt in the town. It will be built on the high land North of the railroad track, and in a grove of young oak trees. The colored Presbyterians in Chad bourn are also about to erect a new church building in the town.
