There are some very fine truck
lands on the line of the Wilmington
and Weldon Railroad, in Pender
and Duplin counties. Around Bur
gaw they are as good as at any
other point. A few days ago a
friend of ours paid a visit to that
town and visited the trucking farm
of Mr. J. T. Collins, the merchant
and planter. Everything indicated
good judgment, thrift and enter
prise. Mr. Collins has realized
handsomely this year from garden
truck and fruit. There are plenty
of fine lands in that section awaiting
cultivation.
In the Southwe
The colored commission who were
appointed by the proposing colored
emigrants in North Carolina to go
and spy out the land, have been
down in Little Rock, Ark., and in
Memphis, Tenn,, and they have got
their names and their purposes in
the papers in those cities. The
commission is composed of four per
sons, Geo W. Price, of this city, who
is the president of the Association,
L. R. Ferrebee, Richard Ashe and
I. G. Hayes. They seem to be well
pleased -with the lands they have
seen and will advise a portion of
their people at least as to the ad
vantages of a removal to Arkansas.

' newspapers is the oft-repeated one

p,ndii Teachers Institute,
A friend at Kenans ville sends us
rather late, a short article in refer
ence to the Teachers' Institute held
recently at that place. It was under
the management of Prof. Nobles, of
this city, and there were in all about
75 teachers present, including teaoh
ers of private as well as public
schools. The institute was a success
in every way. Many of the teachers
stood an examination for a State
certificate.
The Butchers in Council.
At a meeting rof the butchers of
Frout Street Market, held this day.
Mr. T. A. Watson was called to the
chair and Mr. R, L. Fox was made
Secretary.
The chairman stated the object of
the meeting to be to arrange a con
ference with the committee on mar
kets from the Board of Aldermen
relative to better regulations for
the market.
Messrs. T. A. Watson, Jno. F.
Garrell and I. B. Rhodes were ap
pointed to arrange for this conference-,
and to report at a subsequent
meeting.
Southport and Her Railroads.
Southport is stirred up now, from
centre to circumference, on the rail
road question. There are two Rich
monds in the field, one the South
Atlantic & Northwestern R. R. Co.
and the other, the Cape Fear &
Cincinnati R. R. Co. The former
was-first in the field, having had
surveys made three years ago but
as yet not having accomplished any.
thing, and the latter is a new con
cern, having been but recently or
ganized. The S. A. & N. W. is com
poed principally of Eastern men,
of Bait imore and New York, and the
C. F. & C. of Chicago capitalists.
Col. George B. Morton, of. Balti
more, who has been in Southport
for some days past, and who was in
the city yesterday, seems; to be,
h o we ver allied with the Western,
men. He is as close as a clam, how
ever, and will tail nothing as. yet
He says, we understand, that he wil
disclose' the" enti re scheme to the
citizens of Southport) in a few days.
It is said, in connection with this
scheme, that twenty solid business
men from Chicago, representing a
combined capital of $40,000,000, will
bejn Southport early in September
to" look over f the ground. In the
meantime the" projector of this new
scheme for "a road from Southport
to Cincinnati seems to have worked
some activity Into the slow-moving
people of the S. A. & N. W. RR.
and a correspondence has been ac
tive of la4e between parties in South
port interested in this road and
dapitalists in New York.
I As a consequence of these things
the town is alive now wth railroad
talk and the citizens are beginning j
to feel assured that something tan- j
gible will arise from one or the other !
projection. This feeling is strength
ened by the fact that a corps of
railroad surveyors have , lately been
at work In various parts of tbe
town, bat just exactly what they
have surveyed, and'what for, seems
eiHenlt to understand."' I

The Prizes to Te Awarded.
The piizes won in theLadies Re
gatta last week are to be presented
to the successful boats at the Caro
lina Yacht Club House, on Wrights
ville Beach, to morrow night. It is
expected 'that a great many from
the city will go down and in the
event of the club house proving too
small to accommodate the crowd
they will adjourn to the pavilion at
the Hammocks, which Capt. Nolan
will tender for the purpose.
At the IJeach Iast Night. '
There was a fine time among the
"natives" at Carolina Beach last
night. Nearly everybody danced
and everybody enjoyed it. The
fun took ; place in the dining room
of the hotel. The music was fur
nished by Prof. Dallas Fennell,Prof.
Dave Soutkerland and Prof. Hugh
McLaurin (on the triangle). The
affair was under the management
of Prof. Smith. The exercises were
opened by Host Perry with an ex
cerpt from Fisher's hornpike which
was gracefully rendered.
The ladies turned out in force and
it was ! an exceedingly enjoyable
dance, j A "candy pulling" closed
the "exercises." In this Prof. Har
ris bpp made a distinguished de
but. He got "stuck" on a piece that
was too hard to pull and too soft to
"chaw" and it -took the united
strength of Pro. Southerland and
Prof, somebody else to get his jaws
apart in time for breakfast. ' This
was the only "drawback" to what
was otherwise a delightful evening.
