C. C. Clark reqaeetiDg the Legislature not to paae any bill by which the taxes of Craven coonty will be increase. Uur tele grama last night state that the bill to allow the oommiaaioners to levy a special tax has already passed the Senate. We are as much opposed to unnecessary taxes aa any taxpayer in Craven countjj bat we se nothing to be gained, only for those who invest in county vouchers at a great diacount, by allowing a float ing debt to accumulate. The county rpoaamisaioners were en gaged Saturday and Monday in ex amining the accounts of ex-sheriff Halm, tax collector, and ex-treasurer Kilburn Mr, IUhn not having paid over any moneys to treasurer Pat terson, the commissioners want to know to reason why. The investigation so far, from what we can learn, only shows that the sheriff had exf raord inary good luck in collecting taxee this year and had paid over almost the 'entire county taxes to treasurer Kilburn before he went out of office. The investigation was continued until Saturdav next Prrnoui. the worship of the living God. After Rjv. H. C Bo wen, of Kinston, and ' paying for the lot they have $475 in Mr. D. T.

Burrus ha taken step to open the mouth of Lake Landing canal again and in a few days will be able to take the .Vjrjv through to Lake Land ing. Many efforts have be'n made to secure permanent steam connection between thia city and Hyde county and doubtless the difScal-.y in lir.Jir.i ha- been the cr.e great cause if failure.

He is seventy-four years eld. has always one .f the'heen a Jacksoman Democrat and is fastened much concerned about the terrr.orv that was recently taken from graven county and given to Carteret.

Mr. Tolson is grieved to think that the ol i county of Craven should be robbed if that port: n of her territory whicu was the birthplace of so many promi nent men. He had rather loet ai.y other section of the county, outside of New Berne, than this, and he thinks it ought to be restored and the county ought to keep it for its historical interest if nothing else. It also contains about the only oyster bottom in Craven, a Northtrn man having recently planted 1500 buahela there, i Mr. Tolaon may not be aware of the ; fact, but the cutting off of this section of the county, in many ways valuable and dear to the people of Craven, and other erievanees eave ri-e to the late coalition movement by which represen- tatives wore sent to the General As.-em- j bly who would prr t rights of the county n tice. nr I ,nr A the 1 ::-: - u-i: injus- Oyster Caltnrc.

Mr. Clark briefly stat- d the grounds upn which the de fendant would rely, which were chiefly that th-- canvassing board possessed, by the rliction laws, judicial functions, and that under this they had a right to ! determine w hat were legal ballots and that their decision was finl. H.R. Bryan, Esq., began the argu ment on behalf of the relator. He coin batted the idea that judicial powers had been conferred upon the board of county canvassers The election laws were the -..ii., in subctance now that they w, r- ie the interpolation of the word- j i licial" and "legal." If it wre he. hat the board of canvassers could j i ; mlly determine snch "cases, port., s . sted would have a right to be jr. -, with their counsel, to sub-l-'ei:.i - eses. and when election casei v -- gone into in this manner it would - difficult to ever determine who v- is elected. No court in this c.iu:.-. i r even the King's Bench of Engi.tr. had ever exercised such pow ers as that exercised by the board of canvassers of C raven county . Even the State board of canvassers had declared that they had no right to go into an in vestigation cf this matter which was b-for- them m the form of affidavit f r oru this c . unty.

I will consider that. Mr. Clark gave notice of appeal, the relators waived notice. Mr. Clark, the leading counsel for the defendants, appeared perfectly satisfied with the decision of His Honor, and feels confident that he will win the case in the end. As he did not have an op portunity cf replying to the arguments of the able counsel on the other side, we deem it but justice to him to Btate that he says he was fully prepared to meet them upon the legal points in the case, and as for the patriotism thrown in in the course of the arguments he will be prepared to meet them when the case comes up upon th issues of fact. He will thin show that it is as important to protect the rights of citi zens at the ballot box as before a can vassing board. Canal Wanted. Editor Journal. I give ycu below a few points in regard to our petition and the benefits that may be derived from it accomplishments : Firit. the cutting of the canal will dram hundreds of acres of swamp land that would produce from eight to ten barrels of corn per acre, some of which is government land, besides letting off the stagnant water, which would make this part of the country as healthy as any part of the State. Then to cut a road ecmewhere near Riverdale, by the lakes, and nearest point out to White Oak road, a distance of about eleven miles, which would go through a large body of good land, part of which also belongs to the State, wou Id makea short route for transportation. Also, the great quantity of fish that is in said lakes could be secured and used to great advantage. Besides, the road would greatly be benefited by cutting of said road, as its embankment, several times, has nearly given away from quantity of water that gathers at this place. Al.-o. there would be a quautity of freight from wo d and timber that wou Id be t rails p. rted thr.ug h this canal . ih- distance being only one and a half miles from creek to river, railroad be ing about half th- distance, and besides the quantity of marl abounding on said creek and ciiinl c ''.il l be shipped up thr- c in. try f -r y. -r-. th-- -upply beiug plentiful S .

CANALS AND ROATS At Thursday night's session of the nouse there was a two hours debate on the special order, a bill to authorize the - , Sta.te boar(l of education to construct 1 anfi rr.m n I ete rorfmn rno n a an A f qtiqId i f-- r , . , J "7 the State, and little or no use for con- j victs Mr. Worth, attacking the bill, said the swamp lands were worthless, that Lr; J TSfk- WOinnd De ve,T great, and it would give 100 convicts five years steady work. Virtually it would appropriate S50,000 a year for five years. He said the bill was an in sane idea, indefinite, etc. He declared that he did not antagonize the East, but only this bill. Mr. Pearson offered an amendment that the public lands be sold and the i r,r, A c money tney ootain De uaea in paying !, convicts to construct the roads and canals, at $125 per convict per year. Mr. Pearjon heaped ridicule upon the bill He saw only one thing of possible merit, ! that being the canal from Broad creek In Atlicratnr rivar tso amirl ll,a .nTrira woui.i hp ivpn f" nn,hi-. Tho St would reallv pain bv civino- the conn. ties in which these roads and canals are to be constructed the taxes they might pay. The State would by this save 1 1. CCO a year. Speaking of convicts in the Wist, he said that all their work was paid for. Mr. Thomas, of Carteret, made a long spaech and an excellent one. He asked that favor be shown this enterprise or rvther series of great enterprises, on a par with others in the West or other sections of the State. He explained carefully and clearly the character of the work proposed to be done. The water-ways it would give would be of importance, nay necessity, to the peo- -TI 1 .1 1 -,, pie. i ne roaus, use tne canais, win Rill in A crrpnt wnrlr nf HavolnntTiAiil The carjai from Broad creek to Alligator river, for instance, will be not only a great State work, but will form a part oi the great inter-State inland system of water-ways. Mr. Felton spoke warmly in favor of the bill, and plainly criticised Mr. I'earson for casting ridicule upon a great enterprise, affecting the people of the whole State, more or less directly. Mr. Parsons began a speech on the j bill, but before he had spoken ten words ! the hour of 10 arrived, the Speaker's gavel fell, and the House adjourned until Friday morning. FRIDAY NIGHT'S PROCEEDINGS. , Last night the House devoted over ' three hours to a discussion of the bill to rant 0X0 convicts to tne otate ooara oi education in oraer tnat tne Doara miKht construct and complete certain roads and canals in thirteen counties in the eastern part of tho State. The de bate was heated. Twenty members spoke. Pearson and Parsons led the opposition. The Speaker ruled that the question could be divided. Mr. Lyon appealed from this decision. The House failed to sustain the Speaker, 40 to 39. The House voted down every amend ment, and finally, at 11 o clock, passed the bill, 67 to IS, on its second and third readings, just aa it came from the Sen ate. HON. J. J. DAVIS. Last night at 11 o'clock Gov. Scales appointed Hon. Joseph J. Davis an As sociate Justice of the Supreme Court to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Judge Ashe. The appointment of Mr. Davis was made after many days' de liberation. Mr. Davis is 54 years of age and has for many years been in public life. He served three terms in Con gress, with ability. In one of his cam paigns he defeated both Moses A, Bled soe and Josiah Turner, Republicans. Mr. Davis is a warm personal friend of Gov. Scales. His appointment is sure to give a great deal of satisfaction. Two other distinguished gentlemen, Messrs. George Davis and Richard H. Battle, were mentioned in connection with this position.

The bill to use convicts in working public roads waa taken up. A great many amendments were of fered, and nearly all were voted down. Finally by a vote of 28 to 13 the bill passed second reading. As passed it provides that any counties which erect suitable and safe stockades can upon application to the penitentiary receive such conyicts as are sent from Baid coun ties for terms of ten years or less. These convicts so granted to counties are to be used in working upon public roads, The effect of this bill, if it becomes law. will be in a few years to take all the convicts out of the penitentiary save those sentenced for high crimes and for long terms. The bill only applies to such convicts as may hereafter be re ceived. Counties are to pay for their support. The Senate indefinitely postponed the bill to repeal Wake stock law. The vote was 28 to 15. HOUSE. The following bills were introduced: i-ast To ratify the purchase of a farm by The 1 the penitentiary authorities.

It provides for a tax of 23 cents on the 100 valuation of real and personal property and jy cents on the poll for educational purposes. The biil is a long one, 19 pages, and with 4; sec tions.

The subject of this sketch was born April loth, 1S04 and died Jan. 27th, 1SS7. being in her 83d year. Her maiden name was Loftin. At an early aee she was married to Walter Dunn. Not long after she, with her husband, confessed Christ at Roun tree's church, Pitt county, and became members of that congregation. This was about the time that that church, under the care and leadership of Eld. John P. Dunn, decided to be known onlv aa a church ' decided to be known only aa a church ' of Christ and the members thereof ' simply as Disciples of Christ. Having J personal knowledge of all these early , movements in that direction, it waa only natural that one of her energy and ! active turn of mind should become 1 zealous in such a cause. She next held membership in a con gregation formed near Kinston, known as Little Sister, being more convenient to her home. From this nucleus re sulted the organization in Kinston, of which she was one of the lirst members : on the list. Her history is interwoven j with the history of the church. T if.- 1QCQ -1 ..

Especially was she I interested in the religious interests of i ner cnnaren, relatives and friends, Anxious to see them Christians and enjoy the full light of the gospel, she spared no effort towards getting them to attend preaching, read the Bible, or do anything which could bring about the happy result. After she became unable to attend church, she would not fail to inquire if a son, a daughter, a grandson, a friend was there. Our most intimate acquaintance has been during her last years of affliction, during which, it was always pleasant and cheering to meet her, and she never failed to request us to read, sing and pray with her. The funeral services were largely attended, and Kinston church and many friends mourn the loss of one faithful and true. H. C. B. iyf MEIUOKIAITI. Joseph T. Richardson, son of the late r"ohD H. Richard sor, a prominent cm zen of his time, died in Philadelphia, suddenly, of some complicated brain trouble, February 3th, 1887, in the 35th year of his age. Mr. Richardson had been under medical treatment for some time and was travelling for his health, hoping to regain it by a course of treatment at the Philadelphia hospital, where his death unexpectedly occurred. He was connected with some of the best fami lies of the State and his death will be keenly felt by the neighborhood in which he lived. Perfectly honest, up right and sober, he was a regular com municant of the M. E. Church South, and had been for a number of years the leading spirit in his church. It can truly be said of him, he had not an entatny in the world, and the anxiety displayed by his neighbors during his long sickness and their kind attention and assistance, together with the deep sorrow expressed at his death, attest the esteem in which he was held by the community in which he lived. He left a devoted wife and seven small children to whom we extend our deepest sympathy. Goldsboro Messenger, Wilmington Star and Raleigh A"eu-s and Observer copy and send bill to this office.
