nearly all white, arrived here this
morning from Mt. Airy. fThey xtent
down at once to the Hammocks
without changing cars, but return

They remained here daring the day

The Onslow people are still push

The Bur caw and Onslow Railroad.
- : . I
We hear it stated that the Bur
gaw and Onslow people are expected
out here from New York next week,
and there is some pretty confident
talk of what they will do. It is be
lieved that this visit will presage
the beginning of active work on the
line. It is said that the company are
large land holders; that they own
some 50,000 acres in Onslow county.
If so this shows the milk in the
cocoanut. Their intention seems
still to be to go to Swansboro, and
it is reported that they will build
a large hotel there, as a health and
pleasure resort. If these things are
so then it won't be long before a
terminus for the road will be sought
in Wilmington. !

Political Note.
Our esteemed contemporary, Cab-
man Jones, mtorms us tnac ne can
not support our nominee, the mos
quito, fpr the dignified office of
national bird. He says the moss
qui to does not soar high enough.
Indeed, be says that he has lived in
countries where mosquitoes 'tilled
the air chock full down near the
earth, yet on going iip fifteen feet
above the ground.he always es
caped them. The Post is not an
organ. It means to be fair to all
parties,- and it must say that Cab
man Jones, if his testimony be act
curate, has presented the only real
argument we have heard against the
mosquito. Surely this proud nation
will not accept for its bird one that
never flies higher than fifteen feet
from the earth. However, before
we foresake the mosquito we mean
to'obtain, if possible, the evidence
of somebody who has slept in a seo
ond or third story room without a
mosquito net over his (or her) bed.

Vessels sailing South are likely. to
v. r
encounter strong gales. This doesn't
mean that the storm is coming this
way and hence we need fear no un
easiness. We may possibly feel
some of the lashings of its tail and
that is about all. j
A Wright Good Joke.
Wrightsville is the right place in
which to get off a wright good joke.
The train on the Seacoast R. R., on
regular schedule, ! arrives there at
7.30 a. m. and leaves at 8.30. This
is the train on which the business
men of Wilmington who tackle
the sandflies at Wrightsville every
night arrive in the city. This morn
ing the excursionists from Mt. Airy
arrived therevat 6.30.
The sandfiddlers at Wrightsville
and Summer's Rest have watches
and clocks, pf course, but whoever
cared a continental for a watch or a
clock when a railroad whistle blew?
Hence, when this I morning's special
pulled in at Wrightsville there was
a commotion in the camp. Every
man bound Wilmington-ward
sprang from his virtuous couch and
swore . that, the
hour do w. The
clock was an
entire household
was soon in a fever and the cook
came in for more than her share of
abuse , for not having breakfast
ready. For a short time it was love
ly and lively around there but when
it was ascertained that it was only
an excursion' train and not the regu
lar whicjf '..bad j disturbed their
slumbers he excitement quickly
subsided. , VPshaw!"(you cari spell
this as you : please) exclaimed the
G. I. V. C. "I knew it was not that
train but some other train" and then
he calmly went in to breakfast.
