If all these the money obtained from them funded, so that the interest might be added to the educational fund i obtained from other sourcs, the net results to the State would be j far more beneficial than though these, lands should be held as they now1 are for the next twenty years, and then sold at several hundred '"percept advance on their present value. In other words the added educational facilities obtained from this soaree would have done more for the generation that in the next twot score years will have become the people of this State, than all that the State would gain by hold ing these lands, even if their cash value should meanwhile have in creased five hundred fold. These thoughts have been suggested, by what Colonel Pardee said about the White Oak swamp, in an interview with the Jotjkxa-L's representative, which appeared in Saturday's issue. THE STATE EXPOSITION. The Exposition to be held at Raleigh next fall is now an assured fact. The citizens of Raleigh alone have subscribed the sum of 9,750, after a brief canvass, and it is thonght it will reach $12,000. Mr. W. S. Primrose has been elect ed President of the Association, and a Vice President from each Congressional district, who repre sent all the varied interests in North Carolina, among them, rep resenting the press, we notice the names of our brethren J. A. Bonitz, of Goldsboro, and W. II. Bernard, of Wilmington. A Board of Direc tors, consisting of twenty members were elected and among them we are pleased to note onr enterpris ing townsman, Geo. Allen. It only remains now for each coanty to say whether they will have an exhibi tion of their products and resources ornot. What will Craven, Pamlico, Lenoir, Carteret, Onslow, Jones, Pitt, Greene, Hyde and Beanfort do about it. When the Exposition is in full blast numbers of citizens from these counties will flock to Raleigh to sea it; but we tell them now if they go there and find their counties not properly represented they will feel mortified. Capital seeking investment, emigrants seek ing homes, are sure to have repre sentatives at such places, and the county that fails to make an ex hibit will lose a rare opiortunity for advertising its resources. How the funds shall be raised to make the county exhibits we are not prepared to advise, but what ever is done should be done quickly. We hold to the doctrine that what ever is for the public good should be done at the expense of the pub not sure that L . ' J I I great individual benefits might not be derived from the Exposition. There are undoubtedly a number of men iu each of the counties above named who have lauds for sale, or who would be glad to have good tenants. These might unite their efforts; collect together specimens of timber, marls, phosphate rock, soil, products, and fruits and make an exhibit that would be creditable to their counties and probably sell their lands or cause them to be set tled up with good tenants. Or il each county would employ a man for two or three months to make these collections these meu would render him valuable aid and the exhibit could be made at a com par- atively small cost. Another way to aid the Exposition is to sub scribe to the capital stock of the company. In asking aid in this respect we can only appeal to the patriotism and State pride of those who are able to aid the enterprise. They cannot hope for any direct return for the investment, at the game time they cannot afford to let the Exposition be a failure. The Boston exhibit gave onr good old State a boom; let us take the flood at its tide and turn the advantage thus sained to good account. We hope to see the East come up man fully to the aid of the Association and help townake an Exposition that will be creditable to the State in every respect. OCR OTSTEB INTERESTS. Several days since we called at tention to the valuable report of Fish Commissioner Worth, and to day, in pursuance of the same sub ject, we quote from the annual report of the Oyster Commissioners of Connecticut to the Legislature of that State some very suggestive facts. They will be found else where in a synopsis of the same made by the New Haven Palladium. From this it appears that the prac tical people ot the Nutmeg State make their grounds pay all the cost of caring for them besides adding to their resources, while at the same time they are developing an industry of great profit to those engaged in it, and increasing the food supply of their citizens. Those Connecticut "Yanks" love good living like we do, and thsylgo to work in a sensible way to get it They once went to Maryland and Virginia and bought small oysters for a small price per bushel, but now they send their sailing craft there for shells, which they plant in deep water, preparatory to rais ing a crop of young oysters that can be transplanted to other beds, or matured when they first began to form their shells. This is mak ing them more than independent of the whole oyster bearing world, for already some parts of it are calling on them to make good their own depletion. Once ou a time the Chesapeake Bay was considered a 'fruitful aud inexhaus table oyster bearer. Last year the Governor of Maryland sounded an alarm in an official communication to the leg islature which forthwith appointed a commission of experts to find out what the matter was, and to sug gest a remedy. The commission did its duty faithfully and reported that more people wanted these delicious bivalves than their native beds could supply. They therefore recommended a nu ruber of measures for immediate adoption, one of which was that the State should follow the example set by Counec - ticut. It was jroixl advice, and will doubtless be followed. But how about our own State ' We are glad to learn that Commissioner McGehee has had this matter under careful consideration for some time, and tha. the State Hoard of Agri- culture is disposed to give him and the Fish Commission cirrf blnnehe, that they may study the subject in all its bearings and Ik? prepared to lurnish such information as will be , needed to insure judicious legisla- -tion. North Carolina ought to rank among the greatest of the oyster producing States, but the last census places her very near the foot. The value of the oyster pro- duct of our State in 1880 was but ! State, think it to their interest and $60,000, while even little Rhode 3rd. there are a number of our Island's was almost $357,000. New j substantial business men who lie York showed more than 1 ,500,000, jlong to the K as tern Syndicate; but New Jersey $1000,000, Virginia ! they would scorn to etl'jet a lease went $100,000 better, and Maryland i by such methods as that sou-lit in loomed up with somewhat more ! than $4,700,000. Would it not be glorious for North Carolina to beat that big figure when the next census is taken T We can do it; now let as say we will. Our attention has recently been called to the fact that the Centra! aud Western States and the great j mining territories on both sides of the Rocky mountains are oyster i customers of Baltimore. The j Western North Carolina road gives j us of the sea coast a chance at that profitable aud yearly increasing trade. But as the old proverb t-eaches, the hare must be caught before he can be cooked, aud so we must propagate oysters plentifully before we can ship to distant points. We trust that this practical sub ject will be as fully discussed by our brethren of the press, as the luscious bivalves themselves are whenever any of the fraternity get a chance at them, and that out of this publicity may come such wife legislation as shall put North Caro lina at the head of the oyster pro ducing States. THE LEASE OF THE A. it N. C. RAILROAD. 'Cor. of The News and Observer.; Nkw Bkrnk, N. C. February 1. I desire to call your attention to a transaction that took place in New Berne on the 25th of last month the same day the directors refused to ratify the lease of the Atlantic road, the vote standing 6 to 6 the stockholders having previous ly voted in favor of a lease, 1.4 10 to 14 1 a batch of Atlantic Btock was sold at public auction at $5 and $6 per share, a decrease in value of one hundred per cent on the market value of the day be fore. Can any community stand such a destruction of values and prosper? This is a commentary on the state of affairs here more eloquent than any words of mine. Cannot something be done? Can you not, as a public journalist, devote more attention to the affairs of this part of eastern Carolina : We need some helping band. It is a heavy yoka we are wearing, and unless tne Duruen is soon lightened we might as well give up. Chaves. The object of the above communi cation is to make an impression that the facts in the case do not warrant. "Craven" evidently intends to con vey the impression that the great decline in Atlantic aud !N. C. Kail road stock was caused by the action of the Directors in refusing to con firm the lease made to the Eastern Syndicate by the Stockholders. Wt say the facts do not warrant any such conclusion. 1st. By what means did "Craven" ascertain the value of the stock on the day before the sale in order to assert that there had been a de preciation on that day of one hun dred per cent! 2nd. Who knew anything ot this "public auction!" Had it been properly advertised! We doubt if there were a half dozen men in New Berne who knew anything about it. The sale was within thir ty feet of our office, and yet we knew nothing of it. The Register of Deeds, at whose door it was sold, knew nothing about it until he heard it mentioned by the auc tioneer when he went out and bid for it. There probably might have been some written notice stuck at the court house door among a score of others that no one ever reads, in order to comply with the law, a law that is a disgrace to the Statute books of Xorth Carolina, but so far as publicity and due notification being given to the public of the sale it was not done. From the best information we can get, it was a sale under execution and attachment, but two or three persons were present, and the stock was bought by the judgment creditors. We do not mean to say that the sale was not lawful, we are satisfied the Commissioner who made it had complied with the law in every respect, but we clo say it is a mean law that will let a man's property be sold without giving the greatest publicity possible to the sale. But only this in passing. The sale took place while the Di rectors were in session and it irax not knoicn at that time whether or not the lease had been confirmed, in fact we believe the general impres sion on the slreets that morning was that the lease would be made. How then did their action effect the sale of this stock at this piand public auction, at which there were probably four or live persons, and some of these there by accident! "Craven'' calls aloud Cor help. He wants the editor of the Sews and Obterver to devote more attention to the affairs of this part of eastern Carolina. He writes like one al most in desnair. The .b ri:N. r.. Messenger, J-'rre I're a:id It lejdamf i are all asleep, and this part of the' State is fast going to destruction. ' because these sleepy papers wont ' wake up anil compel tho liireetor j to hasten the lease to the Kastcin Syndicate and provide a place lor I "Craven:" Now we would be triad i to have oui esteemed contemporary j devote more of its time in helping us develop this section, but we sur- 1 mise its hel will not be of the kind 1 that -Craven" wants. If we an-' : not mistaken m our ldentitieatioii , 'of "Craven" we think the ear maiks very plain we respect fully : ask our contemporary to be careful how it takes hold of ideas advanced by him. There are some men around here who were red hot for fastening; a debt of :, 000 upon this city to be given to Y. J. Best, among whom we believe was Craven." We have favored the lease of the A. vS; N. C. Railroad to the Eastern ; Railroad Co. 1st. because we be-' lieve the proposition they make is a good one for both the State and . private stockholders, and '2nd, be cause the stockholders, private and Craven s' communication. TRANSPORTATION WANTED. The Monthly Bulletin tor Jan uary, sent out by the Department of Agriculture, contains the report ot Commissioner Vktii on tish and fisheries and the oyster indus try. In the extract which we copy below on the oyster industry will be found food for reflection bv the monied men of New Heme, who de- ' sire to see her extend her trade. The people of the New river -cction want transportation. It is within the power of New Heine to handle the products of that fertile section as well as the tine oysters and fish ot its waters. "The oyster business of North Carolina is small, and yet the State has 3,000 square miles ot salt, fresh and brackish water, of every degree of salinity, temperature, depth, and quality. The oysterinen of New England have the ice to contend with, and have moved a great part of their trade South, in order to have an unfailing and constant supply. The business of Higgins & Co., dealers in Boston, amount ing to .1,00!) a day, is mostly in Norfolk. The great demand out West is exhausting the supply and iucrea.-ing values. Cur future i great. There are vast quantities of oys ters in our waters that have never been disturbed, and by planting the supply can be made more than tenfold. No one now plants TuiO bushels. Our people do not know the proper methods. New liver gives an annual supply :o Wil mington amounting to thirty or forty t honsand dollars. Every dol lar's worth is battled forty miles overland, over as .sandy a road as New Hanover ami Onslow can pro duce. These are as line oysters as can be found anywhere and are especially marketable. Ten times as many can be produced there by planting, and they are not pro duced, simply because there is no line of transportation. Myrtle Grove sound, below Wilmington, five ears ago, produced four or five hundred dollars' worth ot oys ters, aud this year the sales will reach probably $5,000, all owing to thu dealers' business, built up W. E. Davis S: Son, who buy all the oysters the people bring to town opeued, and are prepared to take care of them with tubs, ice, etc. Connecticut, live years ago. bought nearly all her oysters, but now makes her entire home supply and exports largely, her product yield ing $07'-!. 875 per annum. WASHINGTON I.KTTF.K. February, L'nd, lssi. Monday had been marked for an unusually interesting day in the Senate chamber. The Sherman resolution, concerning an investi gation of the Southern outrages, was to have come up for discussion, aud Senators Sherman, Mahone, Lamar, Vest, and others were ex pected each to speak offensively, anrt ilfifiinei 1 v . In a n fi ci n:i l inn of so much eloquence, soon after the . opening hour, the galleries were, c ii .ai. i i ti.. i niifti win unii uriiiu in. eager to hear. The Senate had not completed its preliminary business, however, until a message was re ceived from the House announcing the death of Represents tiveMackey, of South Carolina. Both Houses respectfully adjourned, at once, and the flags on the Senate aud House wings of the Capitol were placed at half mast. Mr. Mackey was the seventh member of the forty-eighth Congress who has died since his election. He was the only Repub lican member from South Carolina, the leader of the party in his State, and the Chairman of the Republi can State Executive Committee. Both branches of Congress recon vened on Tuesday, and the Senate galleries were again crowded with expectant visitors, who were doom ed to the disappointment ot hearing no tire and brimstone eloquence. Mr. Sherman spoke briefly in sup port of his resolution, saying that so far as can be judged from state ments in affidavits and newspa pers the murders in Virginia and Mississippi were the consequence of a determination on the part of the Democratic party tt) defy the laws and trample the rights of all op ponents. Mr. Mahone then ad dressed the Senate in favor of the resolutions, and on the conclusion of his remarks calls ot veto" were heard. A demand for the y eas and nays was made, and without a word from any Democratic Senator, the resolutions were passed by thirty three to twenty-nine.

Will you be kind enough to tell us.' Again, in this connection, let me respectfully ask. is the Directors ol the A. S; N. C. Uailroad any thing more than agents of the Stock holders t hereof, and have not the Stockholders by almost an unani mous vote said they desir ed to lease upon the terms proposed by Gov. .larvis and accepted by the lvastern Syndicate? Once more let me ask who owns the road, the Directors, or the Stockholders I If the latter, as I thiuk you are bound to admit, then you must admit the action of the Directors in refusing to e.arry out the expressed wishes of the owners of the property is an arbi Irnrv iwiirn'ltmn if nmvur nil nnf. " " i-" , s, rage upon the rights ot tin out- Stock- " - holders, aud simple justict lemands their immediate removal. You next proceed to say, '-We think he (X.) overlooks one fact or he would not be so severe in his criticism. It must be re mo inhered that a large majority of the private stockholders in the A. S: N. C. Railroad Company are also stock holders in the Eastern N. C. Rail road Company, and being in a measure both the lessee and the lessor it is but natural that they should consent to a lease favorable to themselves" etc. It is a well known fact if you will subttact the vote of the stock belonging to Lenoir county from the amount cast against thd lease at the Stock holders' meeting, which stock if left to a vote of the county would be cast in favor of the lease by a two thirds vote of the people, and you will find if the stock opposed to the lease was put upon the market and sold it would scarcely bring money enough to pay the current expenses of the road for one week. Now sir. these are stubborn facts and cannot be successfully contra dicted, and now let me ask n-ho has a better right to govern the affairs of the road than the airifrx thereof themselves? Does this look like being rather hard on the I biectors? You next say I'erchatice they i the Directors st e dilVicult ies, in case the contract is not complied with, iu regaining posses;i)n o( the road ; ii.it will cost more than the lease money will amount to.

' KING'S EVIL Was the name formerly given to Scrofula because of a superstition that It coulJ bo cured by a king's touch. The world Is wiser now, and knows that SCROFUEA can only be cured by a thorough pl,rinci tion of the blood. If this is neglected, the disease perpetuates its taint through generation after generation. Among its earlier symptomatic developments are Eczema, Cutaneous Eruptions, Tu mors, ISoils, Carbuncles, Erysipelas, Purulent Ulcers, Nervous and Phy sical Collapse, etc. If allowed to con tinue, Rheumatism, Scrofulous Ca tarrh, Kidney and Liver Diseases, Tubercular Consumption, and vari ous other dangerous or fatal maladies, are produced by it. Ayer's Sarsaparilla In the only powerful and always reliable blood-purifying medicine. It is so cll'ect ual an alterative that it eradicates from the system Hereditary Scrofula, and the kindred poisons of contagious diseases and mercury. At the same time it en riches and vitalizes the blood, restoring healthful action to the vital organs and rejuvenating the entire system. Thin great Regenerative Medicine Is composed of the genuine Hondvrn. Sarsaparilla, with lellow Dock. Slil lingia, the Iodides of Potassium aud Iron, and other ingredients of great po tency, carefully and scientifically com pounded. Its formula is generally known to the medical profession, and the best physicians constantly prescribe Aveii's SaksapaRU-LA as an Absolute Cure For all diseases caused by the vitiation of the blood. It is concentrated to the high est practicable degree, far beyond any other preparation for which like effecis are claimed, and is therefore the cheapest, as well as the best blood purifying medi cine, iu the world.
