Mr. Lane keeps an itemized account of all etpenaea and receipts of bis farm. He cul tivatee twenty acres to the horse farm, four of whkh is put in cotton. One year he in crraaed the acreage of bis cotton and, Ihoagh an ordinary crop year, he found his net surplus to amoubt to just two dollars per acre. Of course, like the sensible mao that be la. he went ba k to bis four acres to the horse farm. He has manured his cotton land until he can produce cotton at a cost of from 6 to 7 cents per pound. Making over a five hundred pound bale to the acre it will easily be seen that there is aome mooey for him even at nine cents per pound.

C. ;FRIpAY,' K,r "'r?I!"!rK,port ?r En I .- We hire before n-thaAknnl Rnort and South Carolio, in charge of Jamea a being Appendix K of the Annual Report of theXhief of Engineer, for 1883. In it we find, among other Reports, those of Captain Mercur, Corps of Engineers, U: 8. A., and Captain Wm.H. James, Assistant Engineer, in reference to the improvement of the Upper Cape Fear, Town Creek and Lillington River, in this immediate see tlon. Between Fayetterille and Cypress Landing. 86 miles below, Capt James says, there are twenty-two shoals, troublesome to navigation at low water to a greater or leaser extent, and all of which need treat ment by means of dikes, Jetties and wing 1 dams, fer conlracOag fewl Bcouringout the f v . . t. f,,. '..;. t' I chnD1 these points and making the best of it at low stages of - wafer. Daring the year ending July 1st, 1883, there have been taken out of the channel of the river 1,669 sunken trees, 1,496 stumps, 1,454 logs, and 4,134 snags, and 5,614 overhang ing trees were trimmed or removed from its banks. The work done has greatly added to the safety and facility of navigation. Be tween Wilmington and Fayetteville the river has been .cleared of the worst and most dangerous obstructions of trees, logs, snaga andistumps, except for the distance of about 10 miles between "Little Sugar Loaf and "Kelly's Cove," the water hav ing always been too high, in passing up or down the stretch, for work, except trim ming and removing overhanging trees from the banks. Great numbers of obstructions still remain in the channel, especially at the crossings of shoals. From Fayetteville down to Wilmington the banks of the river have been pretty well trimmed and cleared of overhanging trees, but a great number of trees, estimated at 8,000, are being un dermined by freshets, and, being liable, at such limes, to come or slide into the river. they should bo removed. A great propor tion of sunken logs and other obstructions being hidden, and it being impossible to foresee the number and extent of jetties that will bo required, or their effect on the channel, beneficial or otherwise, when con structed, no accurate estimate can yet be made of the amount of further appropria tions that will be required to put the river in good order for low water navigation. A further appropriation of $12,000, in addi tion to balance remaining of previous ap propriations, could be advantageously ap plied to continuing work on this improve ment up to July 1, 1885. Congress appropriated at different times $6,000 towards the improvement of Lilling ton river. Capt. James, in his report, says Lillington river empties into the north cast branch of the Capo Fear river 12 miles above the city of Wilmington, and is navi gable for about 11 miles up to the town of Lillington, carrying a depth of 7 to 50 feet for that distance, and a width of from 45 to 500 feet. For about a quarter of a mile below Lillington to Riley's creek the river is very narrow and tortuous. Below the mouth of Riley's creek it is broad and deep, with easy bends. The project under which the work has been done included the removal from the channel of the river of two sunken flats and of all the obstructions of sunken trees, logs, snags and stumps. and the trimming or removal from its banks of overhanging trees, and the cutting off, by dredging, of several sharp bends, be tween Lillington and the mouth of Riley's creek, giving 5 feet through these cut-offs. The obstructions have been removed, the overhanging trees trimmed or removed from the banks, and much of the dredging has been done. Congress appropriated $1,000 for the im provement of Town creek, in Brunswick county, which has been expended in the removal of obstructions of logs, snags, sunken flats, &c, from the channel, and the most troublesome overhanging trees from tho banks of the stream, and the dredging through certain shoals to the depth of 3J feet at ordinary high water. By a further expenditure of from $1,800 to $3,000, Capt. James ssys, the banks of the stream could bo cleared of all troublesome overhanging trees, and a channel of not less than 40 feet wide and not less than 4 feet deep at low water could bo dredged out and cleared through all shoals from "Saw-Pitt Landing," to the head of navi gation, lo "Hog Wallow Landing." Town creek empties into the Cape Fear 8 miles below Wilmington. Police neperte for tneSIontb.

Resolved, further. That if the city of Wil mington, or individuals east of Fayette ville, will pay the necessary outlay to make a through survey and ascertain the most practicable route for the road-bed from. Fayetteville to Wilmington, with estimates of costs, that a corps of engineers be organ ized at once and the survey be prosecuted to completion; the money thus furnished to be a subscription to the capital stock of this company and that a line of survey be made by the town of Clinton upon the same terms as proposed to the citizens and city of Wilmington. Resolved, further, That this meeting of stockholders pledge themselves, after such survey shall have been made and all pro-' files and estimates submitted to the chief en gineer of the company, subject to his ap proval, to treat with the authorities of the city of Wilmington and citizens east of Fayetteville, for the construction of the road in the most liberal spirit. " Besotted, further, That to citizens east of Fayetteville, or the city of Wilmington, furnishing the money to make this survey, is hereby conceded the right, if desired, to organize and direct the work and the engi neer corns. The Pine Tree and Its Products. ' The trunk of the pine tree referred to in yesterday's Star, boxed and faced to show the manner of producing the crude turpen tine, has since been placed in a wooden frame or box for protection, and is labelled "A. B. Fleming & Co., Edinburg, care Anchor Line New York to Glasgow." Some of the limbs of the tree go with it, and we learn that the whole arrangement is intended for the coming Queen's Expo sition," at Edinburg, it being the intention to exhibit the tree which produces the tur pentine iu its crude state, which will be quite a curiosity to our friends across the water, and also to display in connection with it the various products of the pine, such as the crude turpentine, rosin, tar and pitch. The tree is a fine one for the pur pose and weighs fourteen hundred pounds. Got Jnstlee at Last murder Trials. A year or two ago one Dock DeBerry, colored, was arrested here for the larceny of a ham, and subsequently made his es cape from the officer having him in charge. Well, Dock was not satisfied with his expe rience in New Hanover countyr but got to "appropriating" things that didn't belong to him up in Anson, in consequence of which he was arrested, and on Wednesday was tried before the Superior Court of that county, now in session, convicted and sen tenced to the penitentiary for five years. Our informant also states that three dif ferent cases for murder were to be tried be fore Judge Phillips at Wadesboro this week. The case of one Alexander Dockery was to come off yesterday, that of Paul Meares to-day, and that of another colored man (name not remembered) to-morrow. A Fall from a IQTaet Head. Yesterday afternoon about 4 o'clock, a seaman belonging on the Norwegian barque Tetens, lying on the west side of the river, was seated ia a boatswain's chair, near the mast-head, engaged at some work, when the chair was suddenly tilted over by some means and he was precipitated to the deck below. lie grabbed at and caught the rope attached to the chair as he was being thrown from it and thus in a measure broke his fall. Dr. Schonwald, who examined the unfortunate man, says he don't think he is seriously hurt. No bones were broken, but he may have sustained some injury to his spine, though there was no displace ment. It may be, also, that he suffered some internal injury, but there are no in dications to that effect as yet. Harbor Blaster's Report. Capt.
