I S IT HONEST TO HOLD ISORT
r GAGED COTTON?
Some! gentlemen,, occupying, too,
prominent places -in public esteem,
are urging a course of doubtful pro
priety yes, we may as well $ay, or
it amounts to that, of positive dishon
esty, upon the planters who have
riven mortgages upon their crops to
secure debts due merchants for fertil
izers and other supplies. They tell
the planters to hold their cotton uutil
prices advance, and to this end to re
sist the execution oT liens.
The advice inculcates the doing
of a dishonorable thing, though doubt
less the gentlemen who give it do not
see it in that light. We quote from
a Southern contemporary to show
why it is wrong in morals and bad in
policy. ;
What is the advice which Mr. Aiken
Col. D, Wyatl Arke gives to the plant
ers To hold their cotton. - -'Admirable ad
' vice if the planfer was free of debt, and his
cotton free of lien, but the planter is in
debted to the factor for the very money
which raised the crdp7"and the factor is in
debted to the bank for the money loaned
the planter, and has put up with the bank
his collaterals to raise the mosey .ad vaed.
The factor owes the bank: And t&a. jUaioter
owes the factor, and has the cotton to pay
the debt. Now what is common law and
common honesty? Why, clearly, that the
planter -should send his cotton forward to
pay the debt when it becomes due. !

A PlorIuK Party firoin BarlUdoe
Their Exploration up the North
East and Northwest Branches of
;tU? Fear-what They Saw and
Heard Adventure with an Indian
-The Bar Two centuries Ago, &e.
In the year 1603 Anthony Long. William
Hilton and Peter Fabian were sent out from
Barbadoes to explore the then unknown
country of Carolina. They arrived off the
mouth of Cape Fear in October, 1663, and
on the 12th of the month (two hundred and
ten years ago to-day) came to anchor in
" Cape Fair road." The narrative of these
explorers lies before us, and we will pro
ceed now to give it Jh condensed form,
throwing in an occasional explanatory re
mark of our own in parenthesis:
THE VOYAGE CP CAPE FEAR.
On thel 6th of October the voyagers sailed
up the rive four or five leagues - and came
to anchor in six or seven fathoms of water.
Here they were visited by Indians, who
brought on board plenty of fresh fish, mul
lets, bass, shad, &c. On the 17th the ex
plorers went down the river to see certain
English cattle (left there by a colony or ex
pedition of New England men), but were
unable to find them. For several days the
vessel was detained by contrary,, winds. On
tbe'24lh they sailed up the river four leagues.
On the 25th they got-up some fourteen
leagues from-the river's mouth (an over-esti
mate of the distance). Here they moored
tire" hip; jThis was about opposite the site
of WHinon OA ihe 27th, taking the
I6t&!fja aitdfw&veoaeu they went up the
ikTkdtKU k t
" hiwn'ljver" (naflheast brancj) of Cape
Fear) some ten leagues. On the 28th eight
leagues further. On the 30th seven leagues
further. ih the 31t got three leagues fur
ther and came to a tree across the river.
Here the provisions gave out and they ' re
turned to the vessel. (Altogether they went
twenty'-elght leagues-4' niiles by water
up the Northeast River above Wilmington).
" On the 4th of November they went five or
six leagues up the: Northeast River in search
of a branch coming in from the Northwest..
,Up this branch, (probably Long Creek) they
went five leagues, and not liking the coun
try returned to the ship. On the 6th they
" went up Green's River, the mouth of it
being against the -place at which rode; our
ship." (Green's River is Black River in con
nexion with the Northwest branch of Cape
Fear). On the 7th they proceeded by boat
up Green's River fifteen leagues and found
that it ended in several small, branches.
(This was Black River). Returning to the
ship and taking a fresh supply of provisions
they proceed on a
8ECOND TRIP UP THE XORTHEAST BRANCH
OF. CAPE FEAR.
' For four days 'they proceeded up the river
until they came to where were two islands
inr the midst of the stream. ' Here thechan
nel was very crooked and interrupted by
trees lying across it. a The distance from
the mouth of the river was computed here
at fifty leagues or 150 miles. The obstruc
tions made it necessary to return. They
now proceeded down the river examining
the country. This they found dry, pleas
ant, level and : wen-ivx)oded.' 'The whole
-seountry abounded In. -deer, turkey, par
tridge, raaes and conies. -r

sawwhfcetbey ba-tora a deer ' fa- pieces.
In tbe river; were multitudes of ducks, teal,
widgeon,, and. in the woods . "great flocks
of nanakeetoes." They, found on the
northwest side of the river a fine tract,
thinly timbered with large oaks, and cot
ered with a very high, grass., , Here Were
numbers of deer and turkeys. This local
ity they named in honor of one d the
great antlered monarchs of the region
Stag Park." Returning to their boats,
they dropped down the river and came to
another fine tract of country adjacent to
the, above.' This they called "Rocky PoinU
Proceeding down the river -few leagues
they tilled several turkeys and named the
locality 5'Itr Quarter." Two or three
-r . ,j v r - v ,
leagues below, this they found a well tim
bered tract, where the river banks were
'high.' ; -This3 they called "Highland Taint:
November 17, they returned to the ship,
riding at the mouth of Green's River.
Here thev went ashore 'and examined the
country ".
- ( wnERE WILMINGTON NOT STANDS,
and found the soil poor. Friday, 20th,
they weighed anchor and dropped down
the river about two leagues,, and came to
anchoropposite Hilton's River (now Bruns
wick River)., y s
A VOYAGE TJP THE NORTHWEST BRANCH
i , -:'' OF OAPE FEAR. I :
November 23rd, with their dong boat well
manned and victualed, they proceeded ip
Hilton's (now Brunswick) River, and going
three leagueafouad this and Green's (N. W.)
to dome together forming' a great island,
(Eagle's). Our explorers proceeded up the
jivery-tjll it parted (moujth of Black, River)
andthen up-tttltonf (N. W: Branch, C." F.)

found another large branch of Green's
River (Thoroughfare) coming intoJEJilton's,
and iorrauig atfJiSbod. JSood' alter this
they had an v. : ; - : ' . "
; ! t ADVXNTTJEB WITH AN INDIAN.
The savage for iBOmeknowntor unex

boat, with an, arrow, the head of which
penetrated and remained sticking in the
boat's sidftSslyySMoff. He then
disappeared inrthe. woods, a The expioijere
being greatly exasperated by his treachery,
(which seemed an isolate Case) landed in

WILMINGTON,
skins and other household property, ' and.
carried off (0 Mercury !)' basket of
acorns! (Were not these cinnquepins,
which our- voyagers mistook for acorns?)
Other Indians hailed the party from the river
banks, crying "bony, bony," (a peace word
borrowed, perhaps, by the. Indian's from
early Spanish navigators and corrupted
into the form here quoted. The original
word is bueno, meaning good,, simple,
without craft, &c.) But tluf White's Were
suspicious and answered " skerry, skerry,"
pointing their guns at the redmen. After
the latter were made to understand the af
fair of the arrow, and were shown the ar
row-head sticking in the boatV side they
denounced decapitation against the enemy
who shot the arrow. (And just here we
will let our adventurers tell their own story:)
And for a further testimony of their love
and good will towards us, they presented
us with two wry handsome, proper yoting In
dian toomen, the tallest that ever we saw in
this country, which we supposed to be the
King's daughters or persons of distinction
among them. These young women were
so ready to come into our boat that one of
them crowded in and would hardly be per
suaded to 50. out again. We presented the
King with a hatchet and several beads, and
made presents of beads also to. the young
women, the chief men and the rest of the
Indians." (These younir women no doubt
wished to go with t the white men from a
strong desire to" the This place

"rOT SAft ATtHSOTjTH OF CAP
? '" ' is
caTk Fear two
centuries ago.
We quote from the narrative: " The tide
flows at the harbor's mouth southeast and
northwest six feet at neap tides and eight
feet at spring tides. The channel On the
east side of the Cape shore is the best, and
lies close aboard the Cape land, being three
fathoms at high "water in the shallowest
place in the channel just at the entrance;
but as soon as you are past that place half
a catue s length inward you ' have six or
seven fathoms, a fair turning channel into
the river and so continuing live, or six
leagues upwards. " (From this statement it
appears that there were eighteen feet water
on the bar 210 years ago.) ,
This interesting (at least to us) narrative
closes by denying the truth of the state
ment left on a post at the point of the Cape
Fear River by certain New England colo
nists, disparaging the country and discour
aging its settlement (The New England
Yankees, it seems, commenced slandering
North Carolina at a very early day, and
they have diligently kept it up ever since.)
In answer to the aforesaid scandalous writ
ing, our explorers assert that they have
seen on the river and its branches "as good
land and as well timbered as any we have
seen, in any other part of the world."
On the 4th December, 1663, the wind be
ing fair, they set sail and returned to Bar
badoes.

loss.
