The mining statistics for 1884,
showed that the coai production was
4,038,336 long tons more than for
1883, but the value .thereof was $16,
726;277 less. The production of
crude petroleum was 24,089,758
barrels of forty-two gallons each, of
which the. Pennsylvania and New
York fields produced 23,622,758
barrels. As compared with 1883 the
product shows an increase of 689,529
barrels, but as the average price fell
fromil 10 to 85 cents per barrel,
the total value was $5,263,968 less.
It is enough to make a brass mon
key giggle to see the Republican pa
pers pitching into Secretary Whitney
because of his efforts to prevent
frauds npon the Treasury and to form
the nucleus of a future navy. It is
very painful to the organs to have
the expenditures lessened and honest
dealings enforced in the Department.
But they will get used jto it after
awhile.
Mr. Gladstone has served as Prime
Minister some ten years or more. It

so long. Sir Robert Walpole served

others but did not steal himself.

Greensboro Workman : The
crops of wheat and oats have improved con
siderably' within the last three or four
weeks. The wheat is reasonably well, and
the yield will be fair considering the stand,
but the stand is not good. Corn is looking
well and nearly all kinds or vegetables are
coming on finely.
Danbury Reporter: The pros
pect for good crops of corn, tobacco and
potatoes is flattering.' Some estimate that
wheat will fall below halt a crop. As to
fruit peaches and berries will be abundant,
while the apple crop will not be as
large as was at one time thought.
Goldsboro Argus: Hon. Fred.
Philips went,down to New Berne last night,
where he will hear to-day the injunction
"split-stock"' case of the Craven county
commissioners against Mr. Washington
Bryan. Tbe case was to have been heard
in Tarboro, but as New Berne is more con
venient for the parties in the case Judge
Philips kindly consented to go down there
rather than cause so many the inconve
nience of going to larboro.
Charlotte Observer: Within a

Clayton Mud: Our farmers are
catting wheat. They tell us that the grain
is not much. The Raleigh papers say
that the colored citizens of the place were
thrown into considerable excitement one
day last week by the appearance of Henry
Davis, one of the negro thieves who were
reported to have been lynched near Clayton
in December last. If this negro is the one
he is said to be he should be brought to the
authorities, from whom he was taken, and

preliminary trial. '
Morganton Star: Friday a cer
tain young man, who was working at the
asylum and had committed some little tri
vial offence, was looking out for the officers,
but as yet no warrant had been issued. But
"guilty conscience needs no accuser."
This young man was at work on top of the
asylum, at least 150 feet high, when Mr.
Akx. Ferry happened to pass on "Trotting
Boh." and the younger man thought his
time had come, when he let loose all hold
and fJl to the bottom of the building like a

Kinston Free Press: Mr. John
Hill, who lives in Trent township, lost his
little boy last Sunday by a very sad acci
dent. The little fellow, who was only
about fourteen months old, was burned so
badly Saturday, by a hot pan of starch
being turned over on him, that he died
8unday. - Mr. Blount is not an orator,
but he is a speaker of rare gifts and has
such a happy and felicitous way of saying
everything that it goes deep down into the
hidden fountains of feeling. His address
was more like a beautiful poem so well
were his words chosen filled with much
learning and research, with a bubbling
brook of rich humor throwing up its sweet
ripples of gook-wiu laughter, than it was
like a set school address.
Lumberton Bobesonian: We
learn that the map of Robeson county is to
be brought in the common schools of this
county. From all sections comes the
report that crops have been damaged by
the rains of week before last. We fear the
crops have already been irreparably dam
aged by rain. Huckleberries have
been very scarce in our market so far. Un
less Sampson has better luck another hard
year is in store for her people. Mr. W.
McQueen, of the firm of A. Ac W. McQueen
of Plainview, who was in town last 8unday,
informed us that so far this year they had
sold less than 1,000 bushels of corn, against
10,000 bushels last year, lie tells us that
there is not so much difference in the
amount of meat sold, but considering the
low price there is a great f allimoff on that.
The big corn crop of last year was the best
thing that has happened to our farmers
since the war.
Statesville Landmark: The
fruit crop is a very fine one and there will
be no end to the brandy which will be
made this year in this section. The
wheat harvest has commenced, and as
more hopeful people have all along con
tended, the crop is going to turn out a great
deal better than the majority of people have
been willing to acknowledge. A gen
tleman who has passed over much of Ca
tawba and Lincoln counties, recently, re
ports the wheat and oats crops excellent,
much of .which is being harvested, and
corn and cotton doing nnely.
The University, Wake Forest nor
Tiinity made a D. D.. this year nor
an LL. D. Now if Rutherford would
stop and some of the crop on hannd die,
we would have a return to the period when
not every preacher and every lawyer wore
a bustle behind his name.
Raleigh News-Observer: The
convicts brought here recently will proba
bly be sent in a few days to work on the
Western North Carolina and Cape Fear &
Yadkin Valley Railroads. Yesterday
John Morgan, a youi g nero who for years
has had some subordinate position at the
jail, was tent to jail on tbe charge of steal
ing $10 from a white peddler. The
farmers on the line of th; Raleigh & Gaston
Railroad arc cutting their wheat, and the
sheaves of the golden grain are reasonably
heavy. Hon. A. S. Merrimon will

Virginia, to Cape Fear, in North Carolina.
A Mr. Turrentine, living near Chapel
Hill, had two sons to die on Saturday last.
The boys had been eating cherries and
other fruits, and it is supposed that in some

and laid down on the piazza, were quickly
seized with convulsions, and died in a few
minutes.

BASE BALL.
Oxford vs. Wilmington
On Friday and Saturday, 26th and 27th,
the Oxford team will meet the Seasides on
their grounds in this city. The Oxford
boys are considered the hardest hitters in
the league, and their fielding work is fully
up to the average. They have done some
fine playing lately, and the team is stronger
now than at any time this summer. They
have a remarkable record for tying their
opponents, having tied Raleigh, Durham,
Henderson and the Seasides; but tbe Sea
sides beat them on the tenth inning. They
have beaten Raleigh one game, Durham
two'and Goldsboro one. They have McDon
nell m the box, and it is claimed no better
ever came to this State to do the honors
here. He has a record iuone game of
"striking out" seventeen men, and in an
other of iwenty four. The men that re
commended him claimed that he was. supe
rior to" Jacobi, of the Henderson's, or the
wide awake, active, vigilant little Shaw of
the Durham's. The success of the team
since leaving home, having won three
games out of four, justifies the boasts of
his admirers. The Oxford team is com
posed of tbe best boys in that town, and
they play in a gentlemanly way. The Sea
sides were treated well while there, and
everything was done to make their stay
pleasant. Let Wilmingtan reciprocate the
kindness.
Are the Seasides prepared to meet this
nine? We think not There has been a
noticeable lack of unity of play lately.
There has been looseness and need of change
in two or three particulars. There must be
more united and determined effort on the
part of our home boys or their present su
premacy is gone. Wilmington takes a
pride in you. Prove that you are worthy
of it Can Kurtz pitch another game like
the one with the Durham's? Let Friday
and Saturday answer.
m
Carolina Tacnt Clnb.
This organizatidn is growing yearly, and
has assumed proportions which make it the
chief attraction of our city during the sum
mer months. The club owns a large and
commodious house on Wrightsville Beach,
where members and their visiting friends
can enjoy a look at old ocean and be fanned
to their satisfaction by its health-giving
breezes, to say nothing of the comfort and
convenience of a good substantial shelter.
Mr. S. P. Cowan has taken charge of the
property, and at sunrise and sunset one
can hear the boom of the cannon and see
the flag waving in the breeze.
The Club numbers about one hundred
and fifty members. Four new yachts will
be added to the fleet, being owned by
Commanders H. M. Bowden, Jno. W. At
kinson, Jr., H. R. Latimer and Commodore
Pembroke Jones. They will add greatly
to the interest in the races, and it is predic
ted that they will prove very fast sailers.
The Sound will look quite gay, with
twenty or thirty flitting about. At night
each yacht carries a light, and at anchor
they add greatly to tbe beauty of the
Sound.
The first regular regatta for the present
season will be sailed on July 4lh, over the
regular course. Among the entries for the
annual race are the BiMU, the Mable, the
Hestless, the Loulie, the Frolic, the Rosa,
the Phantom, the Mist, the Ripple and the
Idler. The latter, Commodore Jones' new
yacht, arrived by the steamship Regulator
yesterday morning, and was the admiration
of all who saw her. She is nineteen feet
and eleven inches in length.
Cutting and Slashing.
The cases of Ulysses Richardson and
William Browh, the two young colored
men alluded to yesterday as having
been arrested on -warrants charging them
with assault and battery upon each other,
had a preliminary hearing before Justice
Millis yesterday morning. According "to
evidence the first assault was made by
Richardson upon Brown with arazor, on
the assumption that Brown and other
young men with him did not get out of the
way with sufficient celerity when he (Rich
ardson) passed with Ida Fisher, a young
colored woman whom he was seeing home
from the entertainment at Minnie's Hall.
Some words passed between Richardson
and Brown, when lbs former left his com
panion and commenced the assault. Soon
Brown exclaimed that he was cut and ran
across the street, followed by Richardson.
Brown fell down ad Richardson made
several lunges at him with the razor. Upon
gaining his feet Brown snatched a paling
from a fence and gave his assailant several
blows with it Fortunately nobody was se
riously hurt.
At the close of the examination, Rich
ardson was required to give bond in the
sum of $100 for his appearance at the next
term of the Criminal Court in the case of
assault and battery with a deadly weapon,
and $50 in the matter of carrying a con
cealed weapon; while Brown was required
to give bond in the tum of $50 for his ap
pearance to answer to the charge of as
sault and battery. . Brown furnished the
necessary security and was released, but
Richardson failed and went to jail.
Sudden Death.
The wife of Mr. C. M. Bonham, residing
about two miles and a half from this city,
on the turnpike road, died suddenly yester
day morning. She was out in the garden du
ring the forenoon, picking beans for din
ner, and Mr. Bonham left her up and about
when he went out to drive up the cows in
the evening. Upon his return he found
her sick, and sent to the city for a physician,
but at 5 a. m. she breathed her last.
Watermelons have been arriv
ing quite freely here for several days past
"Sea GnJ vs. "Benevolent Nine."
The much expected match game be
tween the "Sea Gulls' and "Benevolent
Nine" was played yesterday afternoon, and
was called after the eighth inning it was
getting dark and there was great difficulty
in distinguishing the umpire, Mr. Koocko-
gey, from Mr. M. 8. Willard, one being
appealed to for the other, thereby creating
confusion. - The game was hotly contested
on both sides and stood "Sea GuHs" 43,
"Benevolent Nine" 34.
There can be "no discount" on the pitch
ing of Mr. W. L. Smith, Jr., and if he were
given "three days grace " there is no telling
into what he would develop.
The willingness with which Mr. Sweet
struck at tbe ball was only equalled by the
facility in which he was missed being
caught out This caused a smile to appear
on the face of Mr.. Sweet so often that he
was by unananimous consent dubbed
Sweet Sixteen," i -
The graceful manner in which Mr. Bolifes
glided over the field, and the nonchalant
way in which he let grounders pass through
his hands, were applauded by the audience
with a fervor that was so genuine that even
the participants were forced to join in.
Mr. Ricaud took the place of Mr. Lilly,
who was hurt by a ball, and the rapid
metamorphoses which he underwent were
striking and marvellous, and were more
loudly applauded than his playing.
The senior member of the rice mill firm
essayed short-stop, but was contented with
a cooler berth out on a line with the left
fielder. His stoppage of one ball out of
four was credited by the scorer as an acci
dent, and the sky Scraping fly that some
one accommodated him with struck the rub
ber padding of his hands, bounded in the
air, gracefully performing its gyrations,
and fell laughing at his feet. Dumbfound
ed the sage looked on, then examined his
hands to find.the hole the ball went through,
but seeing the runner making bag after bag
he seized the ball and in a left handed way
threw it wildly over the baseman's head.
Some of the batting done by both clubs
was excellent, and all the '"boys" need is
practice and plenty of it, but this we are
afraid they will not have, as the clubs will
disband after to-day.
The clubs realized a snug little sum,
which will be given to the Ladies' Benevo
lent Society.
LEAGUE GAMES.
At Duiham, on Monday and Tuesday,
games were played between Oxford and
the home club, with the following score:
First day Oxford 13, Durham 7. Second

In Goldsboro yesterdsy, the Nationals

There was a large and greatly pleased
audience at the Oiera House last night to
see the school entertainment of Misses Burr
and James. The artistic manner in which
the stage was decorated with beautiful flow
ers, and the tasteful costumes of the young
ladies who took part in the entertainment,
received many favorable comments.
The first part of the programme was de
voted to Calisthenic exercises, and the grace
and precision with which the difficult feats
were executed, redounded much to the
credit of Misses James and Burr.
The second part consisted of a schoo
opera in one act, which was much enjoyed
and loudly applauded.

A new battery, who, it is said, will be
the finest in the State, are expected here to
