It was indeed igoHa occasion, and we regret that pretting engagements prevented us from be- ing present to psrticipate in the festivities. i At half past 1 o'clock a most sumptuous repast was I spread, and we are informed that it was one of the most enjoyable occa sions ever witnessed in Wilmington. The host made a.very '. impressive iittle 'speech, welcoming, his guests, abounding in wit .and humor, and complimentary allusions to .the German nation, after which alt partici pated in the feast which, was spread before jthem ; V . .. .. j Speeches and toasts were next In order, and first the President of the' Produce Ex change was called out and' acquitted him self in his usual pleasant and becoming style, which drew forth a hearty response frpmi all prcsenlT The next! toast was. to the "Peruvian Consul," CoL W. L. De- Rosset, and it is needless to say that the guano question was ably represented by him, and that his remarks abounded in rich and fertile sentiments. Tben came a tosst io tbe Mercantile interests of Wilmington, to which" Mr. E.' J. Lilly responded; and gave a nice little ipeecu, replete with sound sense and reflecting credit upon himself and his brother members. ; It was here suggested that a shooting match should be had across tbe river, and he challenged the team to hit the"buir8 eye,! which we are told, he did afterwards, thus proving himself equal to the occasion. The -: next toast was. to '. the volunteer militia of the State, Which was responded to by Gen. M., P. Taylor, who said that he did not know that the militia was to be called into requisition on this occasion, and hence the call was unexpected Jo him; but re marked that the militia - was always ready to obey the calls of their countrymen when ever their services were needed. North Waterstreet was toasted, and so many re presentatives of that locality were present that it was difficult to tell who -should re spond. Loud calls, however, were made for. l:r; F. -' Wf -Kerchner, who, always ready for' such emergencies, entertained the company with one of his happiest speeches. : Then the junior member of the firm of E. Peschau, & Westermann was toasted, when friend Westermann arose and acknowledged the compliment in behalf of his countrymen in a very neat little speech, which was heartily applauded by the geusts present. Next came Mr. Chas H. Robin son, who, in response to a personal toast, acquitted himself r very creditably. We I must not forget the several speeches made in response to calls by oijr esteemed friend, Mr. DuBratz Cn tlar, w ho, as usual, showed himself equal to any emergency. Several of the German captains of vessels were present, who made responses to sentiments proposed to them, but for fear we should mix the German and the English together rather too promiscuously to be distinguisha ble to the average reader, we forbear to give a Report of their ' speeches. Col. George Harris responded to the toast to the Span ish Consul, bat said he regretted that the number of vessels under his consulate pre vented him.-from even making enough to pay for the expense of uniforming himself, but hoped for a belter result in the near future. ' i . Thus ended an occasion replete with en joyment to all present, and. after a bumper to "mine host" and his hsppy family, the delighted guests, adjourned to January 1st, 1878; ' Arrival of Coloro Military. , The Raleigh News of yesterdsy says: "Companies A and B of the 5th Battalion Ni C. S. G., colored, under command of Li 'CIonellJeoXT'Mabson, arrived in the city last night from Wilmington via Ham let, at 9.30. P. M., The two commands numbered some fifty men, and were ac companied by a band of fifteen pieces. A detachment from one 'of the Fayettcville companies in the same ' Battalion came in at the same time. " The troops were met by the colored Commands of this city and . es corted to quarters in the court house, which the authorities had kindly plaeed at their disposal for the night. Four compsnies will parade o-d ay, numbering about 155 men, rank and file. These troops . consti tute, only a portion of j the colored military of the State. --. There are in all nine com panies of infantry, armed, equipped and uniformed,' and organised into two " Bat talions. The two ;comDaniea-atr-Fayette-viUe, the two at Newbern and the one at Charlotte, were unable to come; owing to pecuniary considerations.! ' : " 1 Catlonary OaT-Shoro Sltfnal.

JJ -r;j messrs. jsawara Kxdder ana ethers : ; Gentlemen; About the. 10th iof November; in. company Svith Major Wilton L. Young, I set out to make a reconnoissance of the valley of . Vthe North East River, preparatory, as ' I understand, to locating a canal for shortening distances, .improving the navigation, and draining the swamp tanas along and contifruous to tne river also, for the farther purpose of j collecting all the information '. I could, as to the character of the coun try and its resources. ' . 5 ,1 ' j In order to being better understood, I found it necessary to prepare in connection with this report.' i . I The map has been carefully drawn; and is founded on the' best informa tion that eould be obtained without an actual survey; j - ' The location of the River has been.de termined, genemflyrby certain known directions and distances between pla ces on the River and Raibroad. The meanderings of - tbe River were given. by persons in the neighborhoods, who professed to be familiar j with , its curyes, which are not fancy sketehes, but are believed to approximate the truth. The contour of ihe country, and general quality of the lands, together with the growth of timber, -when seen, are represented as they appeared, and when not seen, they are represented according to descriptions : given by persons well acquainted jvritb the country.. '- .. .. -, , .t -The entire feasibility of construct ing r , "' r" ; ; the canal ' will readily suggest itself as soon as a glimpse is taken of the parallel red lines on the map; running from Mouth of Goshen in a southerly direction, along the margin of the flat lands on the western side of the River to Fed's Landing, a distance of about sixteen miles ; thence across the River and down the River Swamp in a westerly direction one-half mile, td "Burton's old field ;n thence in southerly direc? tion across the main divide at " Bar ton's old field," to the mouth of Fish ing Branch, about one mile ; thence in same direction across7 the upper end of Gum Swamp and along the eastern margin of Angola .Pocosin ; thence same direction across Holly Shelter Creek'and North East River to Peggy's Island an entire distance from the ilouth of Goshen to Peggy's Island of about 31 miles. No serious obstacles appear to be presented to the construction of the canaL Nearly all the ground pn which it is locatedfroni "Moutli of Gofchetf' to Burton's old field, is overflowed in high freshets ; the small portions not overflowed being low islands, scarcely rising above the water. , At Burton's old field there is a low divide, which, I am informed, during the recent Sep tember freshet, only lacked six or sev en feet of being covered From, thence to? Peggy's Island the cutting will ap pear plain and simple. 1 . - : This route is taken only as a sam ple; others may be selected equally practicable, and perhaps ' more so, when the test of instruments is ap plied. It appears that, in reality, there is not much, room for a display of great skill in engineering. Almost any old woman can do the engineering V ' f r THE SWAF- IiAIJDS ) to be affected b the 'drainage are ex tensive, and J most of them Very rich. This will also appear by an inspection of the map. r l. beard the remark're peated several times; , by intelligent men in Duplin County,' that the drain age of all the . swamps in the county would be benefited by. the canal, ex cept ijwo small streams ("west of the Raihroad. Stewart's Creek and Turkey Creek. I found the 'swamps more tensive and much richer than I ex pected. I have never eeh better toftfff than those of Gum Swamp and Qoshen Swamp, not to mention other bodies equally good. An abundance ol marl is generallyiound. underlaying or ooni tiguous to the swamps. ' The growth is principally 'black gum, sWeet gum, cypress and ash, much of the cypress being very fine. I iBstimate that if the" rich swamp lands of Duplin County were laid down in one body, they would constitute a belt of swamp one mile wide by seventy miles long. If the growth of timber could be sepa rated and laid down Jn . different .bo dies, I think it.would'averagoiieirly as.'; follows : ; cypress . would occupy about 25 miles of the belt, black-gum about the same, sweet-gum about 5 miles, ash about 5 miles, poplar about 2 miles, maple 2 miles, spruce-pine 2 miles, hickory 2 Tniles. bch,l3mie,t and holly I inile. 1 The inaSvili shdw where bodies of timber may be found. 1, j, , :,' ; : : THEtTJPIiAJTDS , ' ' ' ' ibave generally a;clay.subsoiL I think it.-would be safe to say that two-thirds of the land in Duplin Countyhas a enorted distaneea b nhy conrse of tne Blver : Month of Goshen to Saracta 20 mile, thence to Hallsville 16 miles, .thence to Chin quepin 25 miles, thence to Bowies' 16 miles, thence to Rafting Oar 15 miles, thence to Abe's Foint 20 miles, thence to Bannerman's 9 miles, thence to Peggy's Island 6 miles in all 144 miles.
