One lawyer, one farmer, one county official and one court official wound up tha Inferior Court in quite a pleasant and enjoyable fashion. In. the cooling shade before a double-barrelled law each with a bottle, each drank to tiie health of the ether, presenting a epectacle which Beecher himself might have envied.

Cyrus Foscue, Esq., of White Oak, Jones county, was in the city Wednesday and reports the prospect for a good corn crop in his neighborhood as being ex ceedingly promising. The cotton crop is rather poor. Judge Green returned from Florida Sunday night and reports the weather as hot there as it is in North Carolina. He says the prospects for a good orange crop is very good. They will begin to ripen in August. Mr. John Suter, our indefatigable furniture dealer, has this week been receiving a large lot of very handsome furniture and is now able to supply his customers both in city and country with anything in his lino. Mr. D. S. Koonco, from near Mount Olive, called to see us Monday. He is a Son of Dr. Phil. Koonce, of Carteret, but has been engaged in teaching near Mount Olive for fifteen months. He re ports the condition of farmers in his vi cinity as gradually improving. The Financial Commercial Chronicle reports the total receipts of cotton from Sept. 1st, 1883, to July 14th, 1883, as follows: 1SW3 and itrais, o,ia,u3t Dates, an excess over liniana imjoi 605 bales, and 200,396 bales more than they weie to the same day of the month in 1831.

Railroad, and have sufficient wisdom and foresight to take care of the interest of the corpora tion they represent. Coaaplt mcntary. air. E. A. White has received the fol lowing deservedly complimentary letter from the Commissioner of Internal Rev enue: Washington , July 11, 1883. E. A. White, Esq.: Collector 2d Dist., New Berne, N. C: Sir I am in receipt of the report of Revenue Agent Spaulding, upon the ex amination of your office, of the 9th inst. Your grade is First-class. Respectfully, Walter Evans, Commissioner. iBBuranre. Capt. S. R. Street, Jr.. of the firm of Watson & Street, says the people are flocking in to be insured so rapidly that the firm is up to its eyes in business. The only cause we can surmise for this rush is the cholera in Egypt and the Atlantic Fire Co. is going to Wilming ton next week. These gentlemen rep resent safe companies and if any man wishes to leave his faniilv in a better con dition financially by leaving this world, or feels that he might be ained out. had better call on them. Seren Thousand Doss In Oullloril. Munroe Thompson, who listed the taxes in Green township took a aareful census of the dojjs. He reports 18-1 dogs in the township against 178 persons who pay a poll tax. which makes a fraction over two dogs to the poll. This is a fine showing for the dogs, ami de monstrates to a mathematical certainty that mutton i going to be scarcer and higher. Taking Green as an average, there are about seven thousand hungry, worthless, sheep killing curs in the county. What a prospect! Patriot. Sample of Southern Freight IIIIU. One of our merchants gives us the fol lowing items of information: It csts to bring two bags seed, weigh ing 271 lbs., by regular freight from Tennessee to New Berne. 0.24. Time required, 2' days. It costs to carry a cultivator weighing .Wlbs. from New i!er.ie to K H-kiiiham. Richmond county, ?2.4'). A number of the implements were wanted, but as it costs about five limes a.-- much for freight as it would cost from New York, of course the first ordsr w as the last. I'oruuient is unnecessary. The Quaker Bridge. Mr. B. F. Stilly has just returned from a trio to Trenton where he has been to make arrangements for building Quaker bridge. He has given the con tract for the lumber to Mr. H. C. Par rott at Foscue s landing who is said to be cutting some of the finest lumber in Eastern Carolina. Mr. Stilly has been afflicted with a very sore hand but says it is improving and he will have the bridge ready by October. His Occupation. That was a hard question put to a Hyde county Major by an insurance agent a few days ago when the Major was having a policy written. What is vour occupation?" asked the agent. The Major, after looking seriously for a minute or two, replied : "Well, that's a hard question. I be lieve loafing Is about as near as I can come at it, but you may put me down as a housekeeper. " He was so entered on the policy, but we learn the company rejected nim upon that ground. Religious Notice. Rev. Geo. S. Best requests us to an nounce that he will preach at Caperna um church, Onslow county, Tuesday after the fifth Sunday in July; at Piney Grove, Onslow, on Thursday after the fifth Sunday; at Enon on the first Sun day and Saturday before in August, and at tmma 's Uhapel, on secona bunaay and Saturday before in August. He requests the members at Emma's Chapel to note the change for August and that tne union meeting oi tne Eastern association will be held at Polloksville on the fifth Sunday, Friday and Saturday before in July. rhe Enterprise. Tho President's car, built in tho ma hine shops of the A. & N. C. Railroad at this place, known as the Enterprise. has been sold to Maj. J. C. Winder, of the Raleigh and Gaston Railroad. It was a very creditable turnout for the shops here, but was one of Mr. Best s extravagant and foolish ideas. Thou sands of bushels of corn were lying on the railroad wharf which could not be moved for the want of cars while thou sands of dollars wore being spent on this luxury for the President. We think there was a lack of common sense as well as business tact to engage in such extravagant work at such a time. The Curlew Bug. Two farmers at K. R. Jones Friday discussing the crop prospects of this year, one of them said that he did not expect to make much of a crop this year, but was making -reparations now for a big crop next year. "How so?" asked Turner May. ''The curlew bugs have almost de voured my entire crop, and I am wait ing until they finish, and are fat enough, then I will turn them under with the plow, which will give my land a better coating of manure than it has ever had. ' Farmer number two verified the state ment by saying that the above named bug had destroyed his corn and about half his rice, and bad commenced on his legs, and thought he would soon be gone where no curlew bugs would trouble him. Work of the Storm. ' During the thunder storm of Tues day evening a colored child by the name of Tony Latham, two or three years old at James City, was drowned. Dr. Bates, Coroner, was notified and went across and examined several wit nesses and deemed it unnecessary to hold an inquest. From his investiga tion it appeared that the child was near the river when the storm came up, and after it was over parties went in search and found it on the beach drowned. The telegraph wire at the corner of Pollock and Hancock streets was blown down, but was soon replaced by Capt. Sam. Howard. A tree was blown down in front of the residence of Tbog. Stanly, Esq. A fish boat was capsized near the market and the orew saved by the timely arrival of Alf. Tilghman. Daaphln'i 'Lottery. The Louisiana lottery seems to be getting into trouble about mail facilities. On the 13th of November, 1879, Postmaster-General Key issued an order to the Postmaster at New Orleans forbid ding the payment of any postal money order to M. A. Dauphin, or M. A. Dau phin, Secretary, or M. A. Dauphin, f. O. Boxes 693 and 319 Broadway, New York, and the return of all registered letters addressed to them to the post master at whose office they were mailed. Daughin brought suit against Poet master.General Key and enjoined the performance of the order and appealed the same to the supreme uourt or tne United States whereupon the order was suspended until the case could be de termined by the court. The case having been dismissed in va cation by the defendant's counsel with the consent of the Solicitor Uenerai, Postmaster-General Gresbam holds that the original order is in force and must be executed. He also holds that the order was justified by the provisions of sections 3.939 and 4,041 of the revised statutes. So some other plan than regis tered letters and postal money orders must be adopted to get money to head quarters for the next "grand drawing." Qrumblera. We wish to give notice that we are not publishing a paper, in order to give everybody a chance to grumble at some body else, but where we think just grounds for complaint against any com pany or the managers of any enterprise affecting the public good, we think it right they should be heard, and our columns are open to any such company or managers to make such explanation as they may seo proper. Now we thtnk the complaint alleged againut the managers of the Elm City, which we publish elsewhere, are sufficient to justify publication if ine cnargen us hum it: muu commuincu tion are true. We believe the mana gers of this line have uniformly been prompt in running their published schedule, but they certainly should have given notice of any change to be made. We carry an advertisement of the schedule of this line, for which they pay us, and we would certainly have given notice as far as we could through the JoubsaT-, of the drawing off of the steamer for one trip, free of additional charge had they requested it. Besides this, it seems to us the agents at the different points should have been offi cially notified. Vlalt t trie Colored Normal School. On Friday we visited the colored Normal School being held in this city, where we found about seventy-five pupils, consisting of teachers and others preparing themselves for teaching, be ing instructed by three ladies from Washington City. We heard a lesson given by Miss Shadd on primary arith metic, one by Miss Cokely on reading, by the word method, and one on writ ten arithmetic by Miss Somerville, the Principal. These teachers thoroughly understand their work and they are at no loss to know how to impart their knowledge to others. They have a tact for teaching others how to teach. With such teachers at the head of the colored Normal Schools, this raGe ought to make rapid strides in education ' during the next ten years. But the ed ucating of the masses of the colored race is yet considered by many able writers as a doubtful experiment. We have endeavored time and again to awaken in them an interest in this matter, be lieving that they themselves and the country at large would be benefited, but we must confess that wo, at times, feel that our work is in vain. We think it right and proper that our leading citizens who feel an interest in educational matters and the welfare of the community should visit the school and see w hat these teachers are doing.

Died, on the morning of the 12th of July, 1888, at the home of her father, Dr. Charles Duffy, at Catharine Lake, Ons low county. Palmetto Duffy, in the twenty-third year of her age. We are to-day the chronicler of this death notice. Sad and sorrowing hearts bow with submission over her still, cold form, lying in death. Silent tears have fallen over the grave that holds the earthly remains of this handsome and accomplished young woman. Not alone those whom nature had made most dear, but many who had the honor of her acquaintance, who felt the charm of her quiet loveliness now render to Affection and Love the forced tribute of Great Nature. There where family love and devo tion had garnered up all its rich harvest, for years of future happiness, thus is swept away. Like a beautiful flower now planted in "The fair gardens of that second birth And each bright blossom mingle its perfume With that of flowers which never bloomed on earth." This community offers its sympathy. Preparing for Boston. On a visit to the railroad depot on Friday we found a very fine collection of timbers, collected by Captains J. M. Hargett and T. L. Hartsfield, of Gen. Ransom's force, from near the mouth of Contentnea Creek, on Neuse river. These timbers were collected under the direction of Commissioner McGee and are intended for the Boston exposition which opens m October. We were really surprised at the variety and quality of these timbers. There we found a large stick each of cotton gum, black gum, red bay, tupelo gum, pond pine, lobby or o!d-field pine, water or turkey oak, overcup oak, willow oak, swamp chesnut oak and laurel oak. In addition to these Mr. Geo. Allen for warded a few days ago a fine specimen of curl pine. A block of the sweet gum at the depot, which was cut fifteen feet from the butt, measures four feet in diameter. It is to be deeply regretted that the Agricultural Department has no( taken steps to make an exhibit at the Louis ville exposition. It is true the tide of emmigration is from the North and flows Westward, and we would not by any means fail to exhibit at Boston but it would have paid North Carolina to have made an extensive exhibition of her resources at both places. We know not what funds the Department can command, but could they not by strain ing a point made a good exhibit at both these places? A little extra effort at the proper time will sometimes accomp lish a great deal. The Prena Convention. The News and Observer gives exten sive notice of the work done by the Press Association at its meeting at Waynesville last week. Some good work was done by the Convention, among other things adopting a resolu tion that hereafter the Association would not accept invitations to hold their an nual meetings at any particular point, and would make their own arrange ments for accommodations. This sounds business-like. Whenever the members meet together to consult their mutual interest and not mainly for the purpose of having a good time, we shall begin to expect some practical good from the organization. The following officers were elected tor the ensuing year: Henry A. London of the Pittsboro .Record", asiPresident: Mr. James A. Rob inson of the Winston Leader, first Vice- President; Mr. Palemon John of the Elizabeth City North Carolinian, second, and Mr; Josephus Daniels, of the Wilson Advance, third. Mr. Jordan Stone, of the Asbeville ttizen, was unanimously re-elected Secretary and Treasurer, and Mr. Frank Vaughan, of the Elizabeth City Falcon, Assistant Secretary. Messrs. S. A. Ashe, H. A. Foote, Jas. H. Knnis, E. A. Oldham and E. C. Hackney were elected as the Executive Committee for the ensuing year. Mr. G. S. Bradshaw, of the As he bo ro Courier, was elected the orator for the next meeting of the Association and Mr. Theo. H. Hill, of Raleigh, poet. it wouia nave auoraea us mucn plea sure had we been present to vote for each one of these gentlemen. The Con vention could not have done better in the selection of officers. We hope Bro. London will give us his address, through the .Record, on "Old Times and New." The next meeting of the Association will be held at Fayettevile. Crossing Ncuae River. New Berne is losing thousands of dollars to her trade every year for want of the proner means of crossing Neuse River at this point; ftnd the incon venience, loss or time ami expense of crossing by tho present method of sail boats, designed only for ferrying per sons and light packages, amounts to a large sum in the aggregate to the coun try people. For want of convenient methods of crossing teams and vehicles, and trans porting freights, lands lying on the North side of the fiver ajre greatly depreciated in value, ana tne people over there are suffering more eyery year than the cost of buying and maintaining a first-class Steam erry-boat. There was a movement on foot last spring to bring out and put a Steam cerry-boat on the river, but tne scheme appears to have been abandoned. We heard that a gooa Doat, suitable to the business was offered in Norfolk for about one fourth its value, but for some cause the trade was not consummated. The boat we learn is now in daily use on the Norfolk Ferry, where she meets the demands of a heavy tramc. We have no doubt that a company could be formed to buy the boat and establish the Steam-ferry, if the owner would send hpr hpre. Hundreds of people, in Craven, Pamlico and Beau fort are interested in better means of crossing the river, aud many of them would subscribe to the stock of a Steam- Ferry Company. By a new road, partially open and al most ready for use, the village of Aurora, on South Oreek, is but twelve miles from New Berne. Open that road and put a Steam-forry on the river, and nearly all the cotton and other pro duce raised between here and Aurora, including tho bulk of the produce of the South Creek section, would seek the New Berne market. Our merchants should see to it that the fall trade does not open without this proper means of crossing Neuse River. Launch Ilia a New Steamer. Without any formal notice being given, a small crowd assembled in Howard's Ship Yard on Thursday morn ing to witness the launching of the new steamer being built by Mr. James How ard for the Neuse River Navigation Co. At 9:45 she was cut loose and glided smoothly into tho water when Capt. Dave Roberts broke a bottle of wine over her bow and announced that the Blanche was christened. She draws only 6 inches aft while her stem is almost "out of the water. Wlien all the machinery is in she will draw 12 inches, and with 125 bales .of cotton will draw 30 inches. She is intended for the upper Neuse and will be of great benefit to the Co. in the time of low water. Seven years ago the steamer Caswell was the only steamer plying Neuse and Trent rivers and it seldom made a trip up Trent. But with the opening up of these rivers and Contentnea Creek by i ICien. Ransom began the by.ilding of I steamers until the Blanche makes the ! tenth one on tho list. The rosult of this is that the farmers along and adjacent to these streams have been offered quick and cheap transportation, enabling them to in cre:ise their productions until the cot ton marketed here has increased from ten to twenty -one thousand bales while the shipments have risen from twelve to fifty thousand. There are a f e k more points that must be tapped by river steamers and New- Berne will begin an era of prosperity that will soon put her abreast with her sister towns in every respect. (jen. Ransom has done a noble work in opening these rivers and creeks, one that will tell long after he has gone to his long home, but his work is not yet done. We must have more money for Trent liver: it is capable jf navigation several miles abiv'n Trunton. So is Contentnea a good stream above Snow Hill, aud the Harlow u Creek Canal must be purchased by the (ieneral (iov oriiinont and an appropriation made that will enable boats of heavy tonnage to pass through. To get these appro priations we must ask it a'ld we must show the necessity for it, and show the good already accomplished by former appropriations. Band Checks. We give below an inquiry and reply from the New York Journal of Com merce concerning stamped bank checks. The National Bank here will forward all such checks for redemption as may be handed to them. Rochester, N. Y., July 3, 1883. Editor Journal of Commerce: We have a considerable number of stamped bank checks upon which we would like to realize the value of the stamps without destroying the checks, and apply to you for the best and most practicable manner to attain this end. We should be pleased to learn the con ditions and provisions made by the Bu reau of Internal Revenue for their re demption. M. D. Reply. Check stamps will be re deemed only at V ashington. A claim for redemption must be made out on Form 81, and where this is wanted it may be obtained of almost any internal revenue official, or by asking it directly of the Commissioner at Wasi.iugton. The fact! value of the stamps will be pair less 5 per cent. Where the checks are in books and it is desirable to re cover them for use, the Department will print on the check over the face of the stamp the words "Stamps Redeemed," and return them to the owner. There are 30 clerks now engaged at Washing ton in the business of cancellation. The Commissioner has, however, issued no tice that stamps, etc., will not be re ceived for cancellation and return after July 31st inst. Publle Road Needed. Onslow Co., N. C, July 9th, '83. Editor Journal: An act of the General Assembly of North Carolina at the session of 1881 allows the Commis sioners as named in the act to lay off and contract 'a public road from or near B. C. Smith's to run through poco- sin lands to the main road near A. J Merrill's," in Onslow county. This act allows twenty able bodied convicts when the State Board of the Penitentiary can furnish them, without interferring with any improvements to whicn convicts were pledged by the btate prior to the ratification of said act The merits of this road to a great ex tent-are unknown, and for that reason not considered abroad. It will shorten the distance from Jacksonville, the county seat of Onslow county, to New Berne eleven miles or more, and lessen the distance the citiaens of upper White cat nave to travel one-half, from and to the county seat. It will also give twenty -five families at least on the New River side of the pocosin a road where now they have none worthy of the name. It would really be a general benefit to the citizens of Onslow, Jones and Craven ceunties, and the interest of the State would be promoted, as it would be the means of opening up some of the best timbered and perhaps the most fertile of the State's lands, known as the White Oak Pocosin, and those which are the most easily drained. Sone part of this road from both ends has been out by private enterprise but not ditched, and numbers of our citi zens feel a very great interest in it. I do not propose to discuss the merits and usefulness of this road from every point now in view, bnt I will venture to add that if it is ever completed, the results from it will be beneficial and to some extent remarkable, and it is de serving of consideration at the hands of the State authorities and the business men and citizens' generally of New Berne who would be greatly benefitted thereby. Onslow. Mr. Editor: I notice that "Vande mere" in your Issue of the 14th charges the management of the Elm City with neglect in not officially notifying the agents along the line of the steamer's route on Wednesday that there would be no trip on that day. It is true I did not send a written notice from this office, but gave orders to Captain Oibbs to inform them which he says he did. The boat Monday brought up from all points on its route four barrels of pota toes, and if the farmers at Vandemere have potatoes and eabbage to ship at this late day in the season their profits will be small and they will have cause to complain of Trucking -as a business which no one would regret more than myself. If Captain Walker and Captain Payne did not know that the Elm City was not to return and ordered their rope and anchor, ' neither - rope nor anchor came to this office for shipment. The entire freight to Vandemere this day is $2.65 for the week. I state this to show ''Vandemere" that at this sea son of the year the trade is very light and that the manager has to take ad vantage of every chance, without great disadvantage to the regular route, to increase the revenue of the Company. An to pates, both for passengers and freight, I think no one should have cause to complain; as to agreement'. none has been made. I have made rates as I thought to the best interest of a 11, and if the farmers think it to their in terest to ship by sail, I cannot complain; but if Vandemere" wishes to sustain a Steam line to Bay River let him try and assist the manager instead of complain ing, and in time it may be alt he or his friends may desire. S. H. GRAY, Genl Manager N. & P. S. T. Co. Obituary. At her newly chosen home. Cedar Point, Onslow ' county, N. O., on the morning of July 10th, at two o'clock. Liddyann Riggs, aged 14 years, young est daughter of Joseph Riggs, died very suddenly from congestion of the brain. Although in our midst but a few months we found her to be modest and true in all things, and loved her because she was thus. Farewell friends and relatives dear, I am not dead, but sleeping here. When you pome my graye to, see, Prepare yourselves to follow me. Death did tome short warning give, Therefore be careful how you live, .Prepare in time, do not delay, For I, though young, was called away. July 11, 1883. Corba. La Grange Items. Quiet reigns. Much rest is being tak- en. M. Pully, watchmaker, La Grange, N. C. Dr. Hodges is now located in town for the practice of medicine. I was mistaken in the Territory vis ited by James May. I should have said Arizona. "Idleness is the tomb of our facul ties." If so, much faculties are tombed about here. "If there be a crime of deeper dye than all the guilty train of human vices, 'tis ingratitude," It is the opinion of farmers that the cotton plant is putting on too much weed, and that the fruiting will be poor. The Florida fever occasionally breaks out afresh. The fever seems to follow the course of all contagiaus, fatal dis eases. Prof. J. D. Murphy left here Thurs day to visit his parents in Pender county. He will be absent for several days. John Reid and Will. Hadley, minus Hadley, left town a few days ago to canvass for the sale of "Gaskell's Com pendium of Forms." Several of the young ladies of our town are off on visits. This makes it lonely to the young gents, and lessens the number of visitors. Rev. James B. Webb filled the regular appointment at the Methodist Church in this place last Sunday. Text: Matthew, 16th chapt., 26th verse. The new bridge across Neuse river seems to have come to a stand still. Spur up gentlemen, and have the bridge done in time for the fall trade. It is said that the health of the com munity was never bettor, and still the physicians in town seem to be busy. For information interview Simeon Wooteu. Ground has been broken, or the first load of bricks hauled, for Sim Woolen's store. Mr. Oakley, of Durham, is the contractoi and work will commence i next week. ; McD. Taylor, at ono time conxidered tho champion '"chock" player, was , beaten by "Bill" Hardee, Hardee was ' beaten by "Comic." Barrow and Barrow beaten by (iuy 1'ope, so Pope is now champion. Pully, Mclntyre, Sutton & Co. have a county right for two "Seed Cotton Ele- valors." They are to take the place of the old basket way of getting cotton in the gin house, and it is believed will do the work well and in short time. A town ordinance said to be in force in this place reads: '"That all disorderly conduct, oDscene language, profanity, drunkenness, etc., within the limits of the town shall subject the offender to a fine of five dollars for each offence." Query. Is this ordinance enforced? John Rouse came to town one day last wees complaining of being sick. He took about one fourth pound of salt, a number of drinks and invited several out to bury him the next day. On the next day, however, John was in town having his coffin repaired and much improved in hearth. William Ward 'formerly a workman in the shop of Albertson & Taylor of this place, came down from Goldsboro Sunday evening with a "black eye. He says that a difficulty, arose in a grog shop, between him ana another man, in which he received the lick, but that he used the door bar with good effect on his assailant. A little unpleasantness Saturday night between policeman Carter and Frank Aldridge, in which Aldridge was knocked down and Carter's coat cut in several places and the skin scratched in one. It is bad when men whose dntv it is to keep the peace, eet to fiehtine-. and it is equally as bad when the cir cumstances are such as to require it. There are in this township three brothers aged 27, 25 and 23. The voumr est never saw a court in session till last April, the next youngest saw the first court in session this week, tho oldest has never seen one in session. Neither of them has ever taken a drink of spirits in a bar-rooin in fact don't use spirituous liquors only one uses tobac co in any form, but one has ever danced a set and he only one. I visited, a short time atro. the pasture grounds on wear creek, owned by Dr, Hadley, J. H. Wooten. Herring Bros, and others. The pastureage is excellent, and would at this season of the year furnish feed for at least 500 head of cattle. There are at this time 150 or 200 on the meadow, and there is large quantities a grass that has not been cropped during the summer. All the cattle that I saw were fat and in good condition. This pasture grounds is a great advantage to the citizens of this place. i am auinorizea to say that the ac count given in the Kinston Items, of the resolution offered by M, H, Wooten, Esq., at the last meeting of the Board or county commissioners, does not con vey the correct idea. Mr. Wooten 's resolution was to instruct the chairman of the Board- to cast tho vote of the county for tho E. N. C. Railroad Com pany, or Gatlin Syndicate, provided, iuey orierea advantages equal toothers Mr. Wooten tells me that he had no in lection to give the above named com pany any advantage, but to give them the preference, all other things being equal. Catharine Lake Items. Miss Palmetto Duffy remains very sick. M. L. Ward, the steam mill man, has been hindered several days by sickness in nis iamiiy. E. W. Murrill, Postmaster at Gum Branch, represented Onslow at the Greene county 4th of July. Mr. H. C. Bowen preached at Union Chapel on the first Sunday. His subject was, "-ine seven Churches of Asia." Capt. Mclver started yesterday (July 12th) to the Penitentiary with four con victs who are too infirm to do hard labor. L. E. Duffy has some very fine peas. He has turned some of his cotton and grass into corn, on account of one his tenants. Jas. E. Rhodes is again absent gone to New Berne. Sick relatives have caused Mrs. Rhodes to forego the pleas ures of home. The corn crop is looking real well. Rather much grass and rain for cotton, making it late. Peas are averaere. Chu&s. are a bad stand. John Trott finished plowlner his corn on the 4th of July. I suppose he feels more independent now. Several others will "lay by" in a few days. The convicts are favored with re ligious service and many visitors almost every Sunday. Mr. McDonald and Mr. Bowen have been over lately. Died, on June 30th. Mrs. Harriet Aman, an aged lady near here. This may be the means of conveying the sad news to some relatives who were not present at her death. Now that upper Ouslow will be so much benefitted, wo hope that the au thorities will have the convicts build the road from A. J. Merrill's toward New Berne, a saving of several miles to central Onslow and an opening of State lands Mrs. Whaley, who lived a few miles from the Lake, died suddenly last Sun day evening. She had been troubled with heart disease; and was taken while picking huckleberries in company with her sons, about three miles from home. and died ih a few minutes, Dr. Chas. Duffv and family have re turned to New Berne. They speak of the pleasure of their visit as only mar red by the sickness of the different members of tho family. It has been a source of pleasure to the citizens of the Cake and vicinity, who have emoyed frequent calls, and the unanimous voice is, Come again. One of the convicts on the Quaker Bridge Road "gave them the slip" on Tuesday evening, July 10th. He had been sick several days and was allowed to come out of the cell and take the open air about the camp, He went to a spring near by ar water, about dusk, and didn't come back. Has not been found. Went towards Trenton. He is a young. slender, thin-visaged mulatto, not very light. Keep a sharp lookout. The Secretary and Treasurer of the Building Committer havo favored me with an examination of the manner of conducting business in building the Christian Church at Richlands. It affords me pleasure to say that it is the most business-lika of any work of the kind which I have ever examined. The result is, the work is well advanced without the least difficulty in any re spect. It is just that I explain the grounds of opposition to the Richlands branch road, built by the convicts, to which I referred not long sinca, as I am now better posted on the facts in the case. No man in Onslow county is reullu op posed to the branch road. The fear was that it might prevent the comple tion of the main, through road, in which event the branch would be worthless. But the work is progressing well, and will soon "go through" without some mishap. Died Miss Palmetto DiifTy, youngest daughter of Dr. Chas. Duffy, 'on July 12th (about o p. in.) at Catharine Lake. Our pleasant village is more than usually quiet. Death has thrown a deathly silence and gloom over everything. There is a peculiar sadness experienced by all, and such sorrow by the family as is only experienced by the loss of the youngest sister and child, and we fear that it will prove too great for the strength of the declining years of the aged parents. Miss "Jletta" came home from a visit in New Berne some more than a month ago not entirely well. Three weeks ajja she was taken ill with typho malaria, and gradually declined till death, bafliing all the skill of that family of able physicians and the tender, constant attention of kind friends and loving relatives. Quaker B'-idge Road Last evening I availed myself of an opportunity of seeing the road, and the convicts at work, and will note a few items of in terest. There is a large ditch on both sides of the road all the way. high or low. The first two miles is twenty feet wide: the next section (about a mile.) partly cut several years ago, is eighteen feet: the balance twenty or twenty-two feet with a good round all the way. Almost the entire route is through a Hat meadow land, well set with short leaf pines. Three of them arc through a soil containing enough solid earth to make a splendid 1'oad. which is now in very good nrdfi". From this ymi gradu ally pans into a black, spongy soil, covered w ith a turf of roots, which has a growth of small shrubbery about knee high and about a dozen scrubby pines to the ue iv. This lasts for about two miles of the road-track, and extends from N. K. to S. W. for ten or fifteen miles. The hands are now at work in ihe worst of this, and making good headway for such land. Capt. Mclver says he has done some bad jobs during the last six years, but this is the worst he has ever undertaken. He also says that when he came down to examine the road that (hose who claimed to know told him that there was not more than six or eight miles to cut. Ha has cut three miles in Jones and about five in Onslow, and now has at least four more yet. If any one is impatient let them think of this. He is now off to Raleigh to apply for a set of hands to pdt on the Jones end to meet him. The water on the whole road in Onslow, so far, runs West. Swansboro Items. Alex. Dennis has a good crop of mel ons; his corn is not so good. We have no school again. Mr. Hyde has left for his home in Vermont. Bryan Cox comes in now and then with a fast horse to trot the young la dies around. Jacksonville is flourishing: picnics and young ladies are all the go, with Bank parties now and then. Miss Eula Cox and Miss Annie Tav- lor, of Catherine Lake, have been visit ing here, stopping with Mrs. O. W. Taylor. Protracted meeting commences to-dav at Queen's Creek Church and at this place Thursday before the fifth Sunday in this month. John Cox has the largest onions ever saw, and made the most on a small place. Three of them weighed 39 ounces, one I saw weighed 14i ounces. John has a pretty good crop. John Week and George Dennis, with Ben lay lor, all have good melon patches, while Robert W. Humphry has the next best corn crop; his. cotton is good Dut i did not see much of that. I had the pleasure of hearing a good sermon preached by the Kev. is McCall at Lebanon Church near here last Sunday. He administered the rite of baptism to several children. Schooner Katie Edwards, Bell, just arrived, xne Kay, uennis, clears this week loaded for Wilmington, N. C, and Packett, Blood good, is loading in New River with turpentine and peanuts for A. r". f arneil for New Berne. We like to have had a severe fire in our town a night or two ago. The resi dence of W. N. Dennis, Esq., was found to be ou fire about midnight in an up per room. The origin of the fire is sup posed to be incendiary. The damage was small. Stephen Holland has the largest orch ard of large apples, and the most of them. He has only a small melon patch: has a very fine crop of cotton and splendid crop of corn: says he thinks be will make 25,000 lbs. cotton this year on 85 acres, and it looks as though he might do it if nothing hap pens to prevent: has nlentv of hoes. Steve works on the tenant system and says it pays nun best. Jere Watson has the largest potatoes l saw two that weighed 41 ounces, and he says he "made over 40 bbls. of good potatoes off of 13-10ths of an acre. Our old friend Wm. F. Bell comes in not far behind with cotton, corn and mel ons and apples, till you can't rest. I stayed all night with him and anyone that has ever seen Wm. F. Bell 2d, as he is called, can imagine how I enjoyed myself listening to his big yarns. Dr. J. w. banders has a good orop; ne nas tne nest cotton for light land 1 ever saw. , He uses fish manures and tried this year fish vs. cotton seed, side side by side; the fish is 50 per cent, better than-the cotton seed and all difference in color; he has a large patch of melons. Has bought several melon farms around him and will ship about 12,000 or 15,000 on Monday, the 16th of July. Dr. S. has a saw and grist mill, gin and full store of merchandise, 20 horse-power engines. Mrs. B. Hatsell went a fishing some time since and caught a large white shad with a hook and line in Queen's Creek, one of the streams of Bogue Sound. She also caught a large bull frog with a hook and line the same day, besides a large number of cats, roaches and robins quite a contrast. But true, Mrs. Hatsell is one of the beet anglers with hook and line in Onslow county. She is the wife of B. Hatsell, Esq., and daughter of U.S. Hewitt, late member of the Legislature, of Onslow county. Mr. Frazzle closed his school yes terday across the river at the Jones and Ennett school house. I was at the ex amination, and the children acquitted themselves well. Mr. F. is a splendid teacher, at the close of the examination they all joined in a dance by the children of the school and were joined by some of the young girls and boys of Swans boro, who went over to see and assist in the exercises -Capt. H. D. Heady, with one of his failing boats, carried over 22 persons old and young to witness the occasion. Mr. F. is a good musician as well as a school teacher, and gave les sons all through the time his school was going on, that is to his scholars. D. S. Weeks I found up to his eyes in the woods cutting timber for re-build ing the Pettifoot Creek bridge. Now you might 4hink Dan don't work; if you had seen him that evening in the hot sun, puffing and blowing, trying to get his oxen betweeatwo trees not wide enough apart for the wheels, you would have thought different. Dan has a fine crop, but the finest grape orchard in the county, I reckon, and the largest and finest quantity of tomatoes has been eating them for over two weeks. He has a great variety of good grapes. among them are Isabella, Catawba, Concord-Martha, Iona-Salem and the regu lar Scuppernong kinds. He also has a large apple orchard. The prettiest piece of cotton I saw was on Mr. Elijah weeks' place, cul tivated by Mr. Johnson Buck, 20 acres in a body all the same size, about S feet high on a level and manured with cot ton seed only. I forgot to mention that Dr. Ennet planted peanuts between his melon rows and will make two crops on the same land, and Dr. Sanders planted corn between some of his mel on rows, and says that he thinks melons will come quicker with corn planted in them, and Bob Jones has field peas, peanuts, chufas, potatoes, watermelons and corn all in one piece of ground ; the chufas, peanuts and field-peas are all together, the rest are separnte. This farm is, for his hogs, and a good plan. Just from a short trip in Carteret county. Visited several farms, found some good ana some sorry crops. Among the good were R. H. Jones, who had the best corn crop, the best stock of cattle and the best cabbages, also a very good orchard of apples and peaches Ha had a very fine Devon bull, very large, and the finest calf I ever saw, C months old and as large as any grown cow. Then Dr. G. N. Ennett has a splendid crop of corn, peanuts and watermelons; he has the largest patch of melons I saw, 26 acres; he also has the prettiest orchard. 1 saw the greatest variety of apples and pears, among the latter are the Keifer, Hybred, Lacompt and Bartlet and a new variety of plums md peaches. He ivill have apples all the year around. The Doctor met with a loss this week by lightning striking one of his out houses and tearing to pieces, but happily no one was living in it at the time. He has also some tine stock, has the finest stallion, imported breed, I have seen; beautiful bay color, five years old and will trot or paoe a' mile inside of three minutes; but he can't beat Bryan Cox. The horse was im ported by Hon. W. T. Dorteh, of Golds boro. N. C, is gentle and kind per fectly docile in any way. TIK CITY CASES. The Close of Debate The J ridge's !-- ision Mandamus Not tbe Remedy. Yesterday Hon. D. O. Fowle closed for the defendants in the case of Stew art Ellison vs. The City of Raleigh, W. H. Dodd et als. in aspeechof five hours' duration, which was listened to with much interest by the large crowd in at tendance and by the court who cum pi i men ted him when he elused on its ability. But with all his power the I Judgo was not able to satisfy the court I Uiat mandamus was the proper action to bring or that T. J. Bashford. w ho wa elected to fill Ellison's place, was not a ! proper party to the action. I The court held that mandamus was j not tho proper remedy and that T. J. ; Ii.ishford, the alderman elect, was a ! necessary party. The question theu arose as to whether the plaintiffs should be non-suited at this stage of the trial or wait until the jury had found the facts upon the I issues. I T. M. Argo. Esq., for the plaintiff, in- sisled that the trial should go on . and the facts should bo found, but the court said it was doing a vain thing to go. on with the trial after2 it was determined that the title to the oftIce"cairie in q ties' tion and would have to be decided by quo warranto, and the court in the Exer cise of its discretion dismissed the so tion at this stage of the proceedings and aiscnargea ine jury. Though formal notice of an appeal was not given, it is understood tha plaintiff will appeal to the Supreme court. After this case was disposed of Mr. Argo asked the court to take up the cane of Doyle vs. the City of Raleigh-, W. II Dodd and otliern, this being a case of the same character as tho one jut dis posed of, except no one fills Doyle's po- siiaou as aiuerman. . loyle place was declared vacant by Ihe board of alder men, just as Ellison 'b was, because he held a place under a department of the United States which disqualifies him to hold office under the'State law. The court declined to take up the case for the present, but decided that the jail cases must be disposed of before any other business was done. In addition to Doyle's suit there are three others pending by placemen in the postoftlce and revenue departments whose places as aldermen are derlsm vacant by the board of aldermen, mak ing five in all who are seeking, to be remiiwea oy ninjKiamn ID-th ttttion of aldermen of the city of Ralrfgbv News and Observer.
