"A Colonial Officer and His Times," is the title of a book just issued by Messrs Edwards & Broughton. It was written by Col A M Waddell, of Wil mington and embi aces a period be- tween 1744 and 1773. We have no doubt it will find an extensive sale. The Hillsboro road is in a most de plorable condition, so far as mud is concerned. In fact, from the city to the township line it is almost impas Bible for vehicles. We hope the su perintendent of county roads will get at the work of macadamizing it as soon as Dossible. It is one of the A most important thoroughfares lad ing into the city and should by all means be kept in good order. Not Muddy. In an item inserted a short time since, we stated, upon whit we can sidred at the time, correct inforina tion, that the water furnished from the city water works was muddy This, we find from the best authority is not the case. The water.in some in stances, has the appearance of being muddy,but this is caused from stand ine in the pipes There is no better nor purer water than that furnished by thf Water Works Company, and the utmost care is taken to preserve it in all its purity. Mr , E B Engle hard devotes bis whole time and energy to the business and is careful to see to it,that the least imperfection is corrected. We take pleasure in correcting the wrong impression that for awhile, gainei currency. In relation to flashing the sewerage we are enable to itate on official au thority.that the matter hag been sub mitted to arbitration, to the result of which the Water: Works Company will most cheerf aUj submit. At Half Price. We have iust purchased a lot of manufacturer's samples of beaded wraps at 50o on thi dollar, all in per feet order and thenewest styles.

Deputy collector, P T Maspey, Qrinsley, Hall and Jones have just made a raid through Johnston, Har nett and Cumberland counties, the result of which w;is the capture of two stills and fixtures and the des truction of six or eight hundred gal lons of beer. One prisoner was cap tured for running an illicit distillery Troy Carroll, of Harnett county. Roasted "Earth Peas" This is the proper name for what are usually called ground peas, pea nuts, gubers and penders. So says Mr J Fauntleroy Taylor, who is the most competent authority on such matters. He says that any man who calls them anything bt "Earth Peas" is wanting in the proper knowl- dge of all that pertains to the pro ducts of the earth. A full supply on hand. Call and get a supply; for sale at 5 cents pur quart, at C O Ball's. Farmers' Alliances. Ye&terday evening we called at the office of Mr E G Bedding-field, Secre tary of the North Carolina Farmer's Alliance and fo .nd him very busy. He greeted us very kindly, informing us that his office was pressed with work and hnd been since he had been elected. That, on yesterday he had received eight applications for char ters for new sub Alliances. That Al leghany county is now organized, which makes the 94th county, o dy two remaining Dare and New Han over, with two sub Alliances in each of these. Our Pavements. In some portions of the city the sidewalks are in such a condition that it is almost impossible to pass with out much difficulty. In this connec tion we are led to make the enquiry as to whether the property owners on the streets outside of the business centre of the city cannot be required to have the sidewalks in front of their residences repaired in a simple and cheap manner to render them passi ble. Even if a walk of a foot or two in width could be arranged so that ladies and children can walk without inconvenience, it would be a great help. The owners of property on the principal business streets are requir ed to keep up the side walks in front of the buildings owned by them, and there would seem to be no good rea son why a similar, course in a less ex pensive style s tould not be pursued in streets on which there are mainly private residences, We make the en quiry so that the remedy may be ap plied, if found consistent and in keep ing with propriety.
