The North Carolina Conference,
M. E. Church, is the largest body of
the kind in the connection, we be
lieve. Is it not about time that one
of its members should be raised to
the Episcopate? Virginia has had
Early and Doggett ; South Carolina
lias had Capers and Wightman.
Why should Sot North Carolina
have one ? It has as good material,
we are sure, as some we .have seen
manufactured into Bishops. It is
understood that at least three Bishops
are to be elected at the General Con
ference of 1882. :; We have noticed
in the papers speculations as to who
they will be. One from Virginia is
among the number, but none from
North Carolina. A hint.
A lawyer by the name of Apple-

his plays but only edited them. It
is said to be interesting and inge

cranks. This is the age of viono

been exploded. After Morgan we
shall hear no more of Shakespeare.

"The coalition between President Arthur
and Boss.Kelly is now complete in New

control of the Legislature, and Arthur will
give Kelly his reward in legislative protec
tion for his local power. As Boss Kelly
elected Cornell and Garfield, there isfitness
in his distinct recognition by the Stalwart
power."

Mai. W. A. . Hearne writes to"
the Raleigh New-Obmrver as follows: This
Midland project is not the' dream of a vis
ionary enthusiast, but a living reality. The
old "Atlantic and . North Carolina Railroad,
from Beaufort harbor to Goldsboro, ninety
flye miles,' has been merged into "the Mid
land, '.and its extension, m- the direction of
Salisbury, has been graded and practically
bridged and tied to Smithfield, in Johnston
county, a distance of twenty-two miles, and
now only awaits the iron, the "Welsh con-
suiar invoices 01 iwo snip ioaus
of which are already in the hands
of the Collector of Customs at Beaufort.
I have been over the entire line of railroad
work from Smithfield to Goldsboro, and
nothing approaching it has ever fallen un
der my observation. The grading and road
bed are all first-class in every respect, while
in the matter of superstructure, North Car
olina and the South have never seen such
railway construction. The trestles are
fourteen feet on ton. after the English.
method, and so perfectly fitted and braced
as to defy . an aceident from any passing
train. The culverts, etc. , are of the same
character of work, and Mr. Brown, the su
perintendent of structure, has the proud
satisfaction of knowing that he has "got
in" the best railroad work in the State.
Kinston Journal: Hon. J. W. .
Shackleford introduced a bill in the House
of Representatives on Friday. December
17th, to provide for the survey of New and
White Oak rivers, which was referred to the
committee on Commerce. One after
another of the "exodusters" to Indiana last
year return to their old homes.. Some bring
tales of suffering and woe, wnue oiners give
a more favorable account, and say that by
industry and economy one can live in
that country, If a living is what is
wanted it is no use to leave North Carolina,
for many obtain it here without economy
and with but little labor. There may be a
political significance connected with the re
turn as well as with the leaving. The Re
publicans would like to master the situa
tion in North Carolina the coming year.

sentiments of the citizens in regard to the
proposed railroad from Clinton via Faison's
and White Hall to this place, was held here
on Wednesday night of last week. The
meeting was very largely attended, and
showed that the people were in full sym

dusk, as" Fab. Fowle, son of Hon. D. G.
Fowle, was walking in company with a son
of MayorNManly, a burly negro suddenly
ran up, ana. grasping a watch chain worn
by the former lad, jerked it away, pulling
the watch with it. The watch was of gold
and quite handsome, and was the property
of Mrs. Fowle, who prized it highly. The
thief made good his escape, though pursued.

Paper "Mills, indulged in the Christmas
sport of fooling with fire crackers, his sons
assisting. The night being exceedingly
stormy, with wind and rain, they used the
second floor of the house as the scene of
action. When they had "popped" all the
fire crackers they went down stairs and sat
by the fire. After a time they heard a sud
den crash and roar and saw a bright light.
Rushing out doors they were astonished
at seeing that the entire upper story of the
house was in flames, and that parts of it
had fallen in. Above the noise of the wind
they could hear the roar of the flames,
while the rain, which fell in torrents,
seemed not to be able to check the fire in
the least. The terrified family were only
able to save a little bedding from the house,
which, with all of its other contents, was
totally destroyed. The loss is estimated at
about $2,500, with no insurance.

Rev. W. B. North, the newly

at Smithville, passed through this city yes

of labor, and Rev. Edward Schulken left
for Clinton on Thursday.
The Raleigh Netcs- Observer an
nounces the arrival of Rev. E. A. Yates in
that city, and says: "The arrival of this
talented minister gives great pleasure. He
will soon have as warm a place in the
hearts f this congregation as he holds in
those of his late congregation at Wilming
ton." A Rather Unpleasant Adventure.
Quite an adventure befell one of our
country friends, here on a shopping expe
dition, as he was about departing for his
home yesterday afternoon, about 3 o'clock.
He came to town in an ox cart and had
almost literally filled the vehicle with the
purchases he had made, when he drove
down to the foot of Market street with the
view of going across the river on the ferry
flat, and thence to his home in Brunswick
county. In the meantime our friend occu
pied a geat in the cart and awaited
the return of the flat, when the
ox, suddenly becoming impatient at the de
lay, marched deliberately into the does:,
cart and all, before he could be restrained
by the driver, who jumped off into the
water, where it came up about to his arm
pits, and returned to the wharf. The ox,
however, kept steadily on, commencing to
swim as soon as he got to the proper depth,
and had reached a point nearly half way
the river, when he suddenly changed
his notion, and turning around, swim
back , to the east side of the river
again, making his way out oh the wharf
as best he could. In the meantime.
while out on the river, the wheels came off
the cart and several bundles floated out,
and, after drifting a short distance, until
thoroughly saturated with water, went to the
bottom all but one glass bottle, containing
some kind of a fluid, which sailed off
majestically down the river, head and neck
erect, and bobbing up and down among the
little wavelets as it followed the current
oceanward. The wheels were subsequent
ly recovered, with the assistance of som6 of
the sympathizing but amused spectators,
and our rural friend finally got safely across
the river and wended his way homeward.

A Street Scene.
The interestine SDectacIe of a man and
his mother on the street in a state of in

her affectionate oflEspring, by way of
variety, did not add materially to the at
tractiveness of the scene. They were ac
cpmmodated with quarters in the station

Competition
CHOULD BE THE LIFE OF TRADE, BUT,
alas, it is too often the death of young and vain
competitors, who waste their strength in assail
ing the adamantine walls of tne prosperous, ratn
erthan spending it on their own weak founda
tion. It were better they seek to attain strength and
greatness by assimilating the ways of the great,
rather than assaulting the bulwarks of the strong
with puny shafts of arroganoe. They should have
a care lest tnose m issues reoouna ana rena mem
of their puny strength.
We think an experience of eighteen years, and
money enough to buy all our goods for cash, en
able us to compete successfully with any house
in the city.
