There they found everv con ceivable sort of tbmgw eiolen and secreted by Wade. ' K Smithville letter in N.Y. Times; Monster green turtles, some weighing as much as 1,500 pounds each, frequent the beach all the way down to Fort Caswell, four miles below the town. People eat their eggs, but do not eat the turtles. Beach parties of youne folks go down there. gather beautiful shells, have dances on the hard sand in the moonlight, roast oysters and have fun with the turtles.. When a fe male turtle Wishes to lay her eggs she crawls up the sand beach to a Dlace that suits her fancy; digs with h6r flippers a big hole in the sand and then lays in the hole 200 or 300 eggs. The eggs are not dumped in a pile but laid out smoothly and neatly in, rows When she commences lavine it makes no odds to her how big a beach party stands around superintending the process. She attends strictly to business, and even if the eggs are taken from the hole as fast as she lays them it does not all discourage or frighten her. When she gets through she scrapes the sand back into the hole whether the eggs are there or not and then starts back to the water. That is the time for the beach party to have fun with her. As many of them as can mount her big dome- lick do so and she carries them right down to the water's edge, whore they jump off and she goes on. Raleigh JVeios Observer: Tobac-. co raised by Mr. W. T.

Another JoTectloi- at the Produce Ex chance The Lone and Short Hani 4?laaeeAetIoB of the Previous" Rleet 'C HeeclndeaV The joint meeting of the Chamber of Commerce and ' Produce Exchange, held yesterday, was -more largely attended than the meeting on Wednesday last. Mr. F. W. Kerchner. President of the Chamber of Commerce, . presided, with Col. Jno. L. Cantweli secretary. ! Mr. J. H. Currie moved a reconsideration of the resolution adopted at the former meeting, authorizing the President to ap point a committee to attend the session of the Inter-State Commerce Commission at Atlanta on the 26th inst. Mr. A. L. DeRosset asked if there was any good reason why the action of the pre vious meeting should be rescinded. He thought it important that Wilmington should be represented at Atlanta. Mr. Currie said if a committee was sent, it ought to carry, the impression of the community, Which he thought was in favor of the long and short haul clause of the law being enforced. - Mr. D. L. Gore thought it was unneces sary to send a committee. We had tried the old order of things, now let us try the new. After further discussion a motion to re consider the action of the last ' meeting was adopted, and the chair announced that the question was now on rescinding the re solution as moved by Mr . Currie. Mr. Calder said that the Committee on Railroad Freights of the Board of Trade had directed him to offer a resolution as a substitute for the one adopted at the former meeting. He regretted that Mr. Emerson, who represented the railroad interest, was not present. There could be no doubt that Wilmington had been grievously discrimi nated against in the making of freight rates. Mr. Emerson had said that if the f ourth clause of the law were abrogated it would leave us where we are now. This we did not want. Mr. Calder cited a book "How to Ship," and called attention to the fact that no rates are given ia this book from Norfolk, from which4e argued that there was some secret rate- which .the railroads did not care to divulge; To show the discri mination against Wilmington he instanced the fact that while rates on firat-claes goods from New York and Boston to Jack sonville are seventy-three cents, the rates frbm New York to Wilmington is seventy seven cent, and from Boston eighty-two cents, on the same class of goods, while the distance from Boston to Wilmington is 823 miles and to Jacksonville 1,322. On goods id the fifth class, he said, the rate from Baltimore "to " Wilmington. 403 miles, is thirty cents-per hundred pounds, from Baltimore to Charlestoa, 615 miles, twenty five cants. 'The difference, Mr. Calder said. . diminishes frop the first class, and in some few instances 4beL rate is a fair one to Wilmington, but the iariff is irregular snd in the main, very moehjagainst Wilming ton. 'Showing hagr-the business of other portals protected Hr.

It would bo stultifying thern selves, after having fought the railroads jas hpy had. to now as that the same rates ifcpuld be continued. No doubt if the law is.cqforced. the seaport towns will get the proportion of trade that belongs to them by virtue pf their geographical situation. If a committee is sent to Atlanta it should be instructed td advocate, the enforcement of the law. Thii wssiie position the railroad freight commHteeioT the -Exchange took. So far as the implied threat , of Mr. Emer son was concerned, that his people Would be wllIiagexeowir Wilmington from the suspension of t&eTaw, he did not believe that the Commission wouia oe gunty 01 any jfuch oUsxiniination. He introduced the foiiowing resolution as a substitute for the resolution adopted at the former meet- ing i - Believing that great irregularities exist in the management f the railroad traffic of the country, which can only be regu lated and adjusted by legal restrictions, and having very confidence in the wis dom and conservatism of the Inter-State Commerce Commission, it is the sense of this Chamber that the law under which they were appointed, having been care fully considered and wisely framed, should be given a fair and -impartial trial, in order that the country may know the precise truth about its operations. . We are further of the opinion that there should be no prolonged suspension of the "long and short haul clause," but that its operations should he made uniform to all points and on all lines; and we appeal to railroad managers to meet the efforts of the commission in a fair and equitable spirit, believing that to "bring back the business of common carriers to the well-settled prin ciples of the common law" will result id increased profits to themselves, while .bene fitting the country aad allaying the- wide spread dissatisfaction now existing. -Resolved, That a copy of these proceed ings be sent to the Commissioners, at their meeting to be held in Atlanta on the 26th instant.

DeRosset asked if the Boards APRIL 23. 1887. of Trade in Charleston and Savannah had not instructed their committees to ask a suspension of the fourth clause of the law. : The chair announced that they had. Then. Col. De Rosset continued, we had better be careful how we act, and take another day to consider the matter. The Chair said that it was his duty to say that the railroad officials had told him that they would not send a representative to the meeting. They , wanted the mer chants to decide the matter themselves, and they would agree to their wishes. In reply to Col. DeRosset Mr. Calder said that Charleston and "Savannah might make a mistake; Wilmington had to take . care of itself. He did not believe that the Commission would mete - out . injustice to us if they regulated matters for the advant age of Charleston and Savannah and Nor folk. 4 The question on the adoption of Mr. -Calder's resolution was put and carried, with only one or two dissenting voices. The motion that the chairman of the railroad committee be instructed to present the resolutions to the commission (offer ed by Mr. G." J. Boney) was put and car ried, after being amended so as to empower Mr. Calder to select one or more members of the same committee to accompany him . The Ttleaton Entertainment. On last evening a large and delighted audience assembled in the capacious and fine hall of the Tileston Normal School to witnesa the presentation of the "Shakes perean Forfeit vParty." It was decidedly entertaining throughout. A large number of both sexes were on the stage in costume which gave a very picturesque and striking effect. There were instrumental music and songs, and there was a striking and happy variety, all in the language of the immortal dramatist. A large number of characters were called out in succession, each rendering fine passages with more or less excellence. Portia, Jessica, Othello, Desdemona, Juliet, Queen Hermione, Henry V, Dogberry, Miranda, Annie Bullen, Hecate, Shylock, Mrs. Quickly, Ophelia, Lady Macbeth and Queen Katherine were all presented. Admirable short selections, a few lines, taken from the great dra matist's many plays were used as connect ing links between the various recitations in character, and were generally very well rendered by many of the pupils. It was altogether a very unique and agreeable en tertainment. Several of the players or re citers were applauded. There were pretty girls on and off the stage. Miss Bradley and her teachers have done admirably well in the entertainments and deserve the thanks of the community. An evening in Tileston Hall is well spent, and the fine audiences indicate a high appreciation. -gl TheJ French Visitors. Capt. Boutel, of the French war ship Duconedie, and three of his officers, came up to the city yesterday and were the re cipients of many courteous attentions. A portion of the day they were the guests of the Cape Fear Club, and in the afternoon in company with some of their entertainers enjoyed apleasant drive around the city. Last night they were entertained at the Or ton, where a banquet was given by citizens in their honor, and were serenaded by the Cornet Concert Club.
