We are still blesseil (?) with two sher iff, both doing business. It seems that we are generally on the extreme. Last winter for three months we were with out a Superior Court Cleik. After the death of sheriff McDaniel for more than a month we weie without a sheriff. Now wo have two; but still we hope hat things will get right after awhile. We learn that Engineer Wolbrecht, who has been surveying Trent river for h the last week or so, is very favorably impressed with tho river as high as Trenton, and even above that point. We also hear that if an appropriation is made and the river cleaned out to Tren ton, Messrs, Gates & Foy, those truly enterprising merchants of New Berne, contemplate putting a fine steamer on it to niake three trips a week from New Berne to Trenton. When this is all done Trenton will be an inviting field for capitalists. OugiS not our people to hold meetings, memorialize. Congress and send up pe titions to onr Representatives, in order to get an appropriation? Our farmers in the central part of the county, espec ially those in Cypress Creek Township, which among the finest sections of the county, bavo to haul their cotton from twenty-five to thirty miles to market. It is certainly a matter of great interest to; them. Why dou't they move?

James H. Dibble was born in Con necticut in 1801, and moved to this State about 1812. He found this sec tion of country sparsely settled with farmers who had no communication with the commercial world save by carts and wagons; and with no manufactures Vieyond the rude smith and wheel-wright at country cross roads. The firm of Dibble & Bros, from that time became an integral factor in advancing the ma terial prosperity of Eastern North Car olina.' Tile navigation of Neuse river from New Berne to Smithfield was soon inaugurated by them and.rival lines of steamers continued to plow it waters up to the beginning of the war. And the establishment of a mammoth car riage and buggy factory iu the town of Kinston gave the straggling village an impetus, which, under the fostering care of the firm, made it bid fair to bo cctne an important manufacturing and commercial centre. At one timo there was employed one hundred and sixty hands iu the buggy and carriage facto ry, turning out yearly nearly one thous and vehicles of different kinds. But the war Came on closiuc up all such industries; aud and as we are just beginning to recover our old prosperity wo see the old land-marks passing away. Though born in a distant State, onr community regarded him aa a friend and brother, whose kind and generous heart never failed to respond to every cull of charity, even to sharing the last penny - wit a t lie poor and distressed.
