Fayetteville Examiner: Few
persons are aware of the extent and impor
tance of the new enterprise in. the north
eastern suburbs of Fayetteville the Cotton
Seed Oil Mills, recently erected and put in
operation by the Messrs. Williams and
Capt. David Jones. This favorite
fish (shad) is beginning to make its appear
ance in market, but only in small quanti
ties and . at high prices. Increased
railroad facilities are nearly in the grasp of
the people of this community, and it re
quires no keen vision to catch the "silver
lining" of the future. Already property is
advancing in value, business is extending
in all its branches, and Fayetteville promises
soon to achieve the prominence to which it
is entitled. Mr. T. 8. Lutterloh,
Probate Judge, informs us that about 700
deeds were registered during the months of
January and D eoruary. 150 oi which, now
ever, went to other counties.' In one day,
last Monday, 26 deeds were registered.
Uoldsboro Messenger : A. negro
boy named Jerry, working for CoL W. A.
Allen, succeeded last Sunday night in re
lieving a fellow servant on the lot ot some
thing over twenty dollars, while the latter
was at church, and then took the cars for
Wilmington. The Iolanthe audience
last Tuesday night was the largest of the
season. Nearly every station within sixty
miles on the Midland, and many on the
line of the W. & W. Railroad, were largely
represented. The kitchen adjoining
the dwelling of Mr. W. is. Joaes, of Green
ville, was destroyed, by fire last Saturday
mormng. - The dwelling narrowly escaped
the flames. Loss about $600. Last
Tuesday an intoxicated tramp made his
way into the dining room of the Presiding
Jiiider, the Kev. Mr. Mann, and proposed to
supply the wants of the inner man from
the dinner that was being placed upon the
table without consulting the pleasure of
Mr. Mann, but fortunately for that gentle
man he is a man indeed, and found no dif
ficulty in protecting his right of property
against the onslaught of the tramp.
Raleigh News- Observer : Mr.
8. B. Lewis has returned from Texas,
where he went to look after matters con
cerning the murder of A. M. Lewis, Jr.,
whose wife and children accompanied him

Engelhard are both, we regret to learn, very
sick with typhoid pneumonia. They are
better, but still very sick. Sunrise
prayer meetings are daily held at the
Second Baptist church. A revival is

The judgment of the Supreme Court
of the United States, in the cases of the
States of New York and New Hampshire
against Louisiana, is of great importance.
Had the court given its assent to the scheme
at the bottom of the legislation on which
those suits were based, North Carolina
would have been brought before that court
on a demand for the payment of the special
tax bonds. But the danger is now happily
terminated. The Political Record will
be ready for delivery immediately after the
adjournment of the Legislature. It will
contain near 400 pages in all, and will be
bound in half sheet. The price will be

send in their names. We desire to call
attention to the fact that it is proposed to
publish the manuscript prepared by Col.
John H. Wheeler, being "Reminiscences
and Memoirs of Eninent North Caro-
inians." The announcement of the pub
lisher is that the manuscript of the book,
as left by the author, vi ill be published
nothing added and nothing left out. It
was the work of more than, thirty years,
and the contract for publishing had been
almost effected when the author died.

Free Delivery Service.
We learn that Col. H. W. Hall, of the
U. S. Postal Service who was here a few'
days ago, left very favorably impressed
with Wilmington as a point entitled to the
free delivery service.of the U. S. mails, and
pve Postmaster Brink to understand that
he thought there would be no difficulty in
getting the service whenever applied for
through him and recommended by him.
The main thing now is to induce the num
bering of all the streets and houses in the
city, which is a necessary pre-requisite to
the free delivery service. It would cer
tainly be a great convenience to the public.

A Short Discourse on Bivalves and One
of Tnelr Peculiarities.
From time to time oysters mostly from
New River have been brought to this mar
ket the thinner portions of which were of a
greenish hue, and a great deal of specula
tion.has been indulged in as to the cause
some inclining Iq the opinion that it was
the result of contact with some poisonous
substance, and hence that they were dan
gerous for food, while others thought it
was owing to a sudden metamorphis in
their native element, such as a heavy fresh
et. We remember that some years ago
some superstitious people actually credited
the green oyster with producing sore eyes,
all because two or three persons were af
flicted thus who had been known to par
take freely . of the emerald-hued bivalve,
A recent number of the Scientific American
has an article on the subject, an extract
from which we reproduce: "In experi
menting on the green, color in Chesapeake
Bay oysters, it was found, on drying the
substance, that it faded out in time. Prof.
Ryder is disposed to believe that it is com
posed of an immense number of glandular
cells containing chlorophyl, and is due to a
vegetable parasite. In this method of col
oration oysters would not differ from cer
tain mussels, which, as Prof. Leidyhas
shown, owe their peculiar green tinge to
the same substance."
Frenchmen are said to have a partiality
for the green oyster," and the supply is en
hanced by the fishermen through peculiar
methods of their own, one of which is to
place the bivalve in the bottom of a water
tank, where it gradually becomes of the
requisite hue through the absorption of the
green, slimy substance which there abounds.

Wiggins' Storm.
Up to the present writing (6 30 P. M.)
there have been no positive indications of a
storm striking us, though the weather has
been very threatening, and intelligence
from below represents a heavy gale prevail
ing at the mouth of the river.
At the Signal Office we were told that
there were no indications of any unusual
commotion, but that rains were reported to
be pretty general. Our noon telegram
from the Washington office also Unded to
reassure us as to any fears of an immediate
visitation on the part of Wiggins' flurry.
Magistrate's rnn.
John Williams, colored, charged with
assault and battery upon Willie Herring,
had a bearing before Justice Millis, yester
day afternoon, and judgment was suspend
ed on the payment of costs.
Justice Gardner had before him Joseph
Dudley alias Joe Nutt, a strapping-colored
youth, charged with assault and battery
upon a small white boy. He was found
guilty and required to pay a fine of one
penny and the costs, failing in which he
was sent to jail.
Military Matters.
Now that the bill to aid the State Guard
has become a law, the military spirit will
undergo a revival, instead of being effect
ually extinguished, which would have been
the result had the measure been defeated.
The Wilmington Light Infantry will now
take a fresh start, and we . shall be greatly
disappointed if the membership of the com
pany does not become materially strength
ened. Desirable recruits are now in order.
T. C. Williams, Esq., Areola, N. C,
says: ''Brown's Iron Bitters benefitted me
greatly when confined to my bed with se
rious illness." t

Xbe Unman Hair How to Preserve

Many persons abuse this delicate and

and is not absorbed. Burnett s Cocoa ike,
a compound of Cocoanut Oil, etc., is un
rivalled as a dressing for the hair is readi
ly absorbed, and is peculiarly adapted to its
various conditions, preventing its falling

The Travelers' Insurance
Company.
rjTlE RECORD OF THE BUSINESS DONE BY
thij sterling Company is interesting even wen
derfnl. Organized in 1884, in eighteen years it
has written 800,000 General Accident Policies,
and paid 86,000 Accident Losses, or one in ten or
all insured.
Total Losses Paid $7,900,000.
It paid 925.000 in losses in 1882. Daring the
two years 1881 and 1888 it wrote 200,685 Accident
Policies, and patd 81,303 Accident Losses. Nearly
one in ttn of all insured. The amonnt paid in
these two years ror Accident Losses was
$1,464,880.52, or $2,500 a Day.
All this sroes to show that Accidents DO HAP
PEN, and that prudent men insure in the TRA
VELERS'. In addition to its Accident Business the TRA
VELLERS' does a large and steadily growing
Life Business,
on the LOW RATE, ALL CASH PLAN, no divi
dends, no assessments, no disappointments, but
so much money fcr so much insurance.
