The late annual Exposition of the East Carolina Fish, Oyster, Game and Industrial Association was ia Vvery respect a great suc cess, but there was' no exhibition socheering as the spirit displayed by ouf people after a year of unpre cedented disasters. As no people . can be enslaved who are determined to be free, eo no temporal misfortune can over whelm ' a community resolved to master? circumstances and achieve success. The Pair is permanently estab lished .and other enterprises will follow. ' What shall be the charac ter of these enterprises f East Carolina is suited to mammoth establishments, but are we pre pared for themt Enterprises of great dimensions require heavy capital a( the ontset, and continually keep a vast amount of money locked op in their plants, besides tbat other considerable amounts are employed as working capital. In other words there must be a surplus. It would be a heavy tax on a people already over burdened to establish a mammoth Industry and keep it in operation until it becomes self sustaining. There is something attractive and seductive in large undertakings, but the greater' the : venture the more will be the loss ia the case of failure. It will be remembered tbat when life insurance was intro duced in the Sonth almost every man wanted a large amount of in surance, er none- Men who could not. safely carry 92,500 took out policies for 1 10,000. The con sequence was a natural one : hav ing attempted to carry more than they were able, they lost all. While we hope that the time is not far distant when large factories and immense machine shops will be established ia East Carolina, it seems to us that in the present condition of affairs it is best for our people to create and sustain a num ber of small industries. The inangurtlon:o'r any industry is an experiment. There can- be no absolute assurance of success. The Stoppage of a factory in which a tnousand men and woman are employed is a calamity to the place in which it occurs tbat affects the interest of every citizen. A thou sand persons are thrown out of employment, and must go abroad to make their bread. If the same capital was distributed among a dozen enterprises with from ten to fifty men employed in each, the stoppage of one wonld scarcely be felt, and the workers thrown out of employment conld get work in those tbat continue to run on. There is no country on earth better suited to small industries than Eastern North Carolina. Five thousand dollars invested in a frnit and vegetable cannery would pay handsomely. Five thousand dol lars in a furniture factory would prove a most valuable property. Three thousand dollars in the manufacture of spokes and axe bandies would be remunerative. There are hundreds of other small industries that can readily be made to conduce to the wealth and pros perity of the people of Eastern North Carolina. CLINCH AN O.N SILVER. Perhaps no living North (Jaro linian is more respected than General Thomas L. Clingman. Even those who disagree with him admire his chiY,alrio spirit and ap plaud his manhood. Everything be says commands attention, even when his opinions are not endorsed. The Washington Post of the 8th inst. says : "Gen. Thomas L. Clingman, of North Carolina, has addressed a message to the Senate and House of Representatives on the silver quession. As a 'sovereign citizen' be claims to have the same right to address a message to Congress that the President has. 'The created official is not higher than his creators.' General Clingman is an old man, but he has not lost the mental vigor tbat characterized him during his long public life be fore the war, both as U. S. Senater and member of the Honse. He insists with great force' that silver should be placed upon the same basis as gold in all respects, so that it may be received by our Govern ment in bars as well as gold. What would be the probable re sults V he asks, and unawers bis own question as follows : 'A capitalist might say tbat l will buy silver in Europe and bring it here and get certificates for it at the old value. I can thus make a profit of a good per cent. This movement would cause a now ot silver from- Europe to ns. Of course it would soon cause a rise of silver, bnt before it got up again to gold by our standard we might obtain two or three thousand mil lions of silver. We could then have a broader basis of coin, and by supplying certificates increase greatly the money of our country. 'At present the amount of our currency is less than half that ot Enaland. and is not one-third of that of France in proportion to our population. We might by these means obtain a broader basis of stable currency, and with the aid of our greenbacks render it more difficult for the banks, even if they desired it, to get up a panie. I am not an enemy to banks, bnt I am not willing to make them the governors of the country.' " A NEGLECTED INDUSTRY. A few days ago we published an editorial article on "Small Indus tries," in which we advocated the establishment of fruit and vege table canneries, furniture factories, handle and spoke -lactones, etc. We will continue to advocate the establishment, of these industries in Eastern North Carolina, but we wish this morning to call attention to the following extract from the Charleston News and Courier in relation to a neglected industry. What is said of South Carolina is equally true of North Carolina : "South Carolina, in common with other Southern States, raises large quantities of fruits and vegetables annually, only a small part of which, perhaps, is wholly wasted. These fruits and vegetables, Mr. Calhoun says and shows, conld be canned- and pickled on the larms where they are grown and sold at remunerative prices. -The proof of this is that in Maryland and other States, where the farmers and truckers - - grow , their crops at a manifest disadvantage as compared with their brethren in Sonth Caro Una,. the business of canning and pickling on the farms is an estab lished industry and is so profitable that crops are planted for that pur; pose. 'In Maryland alone,'. says Mr. Calboun, 'thousands depend on this industry for a living,' and the same work could be performed in South Carolina at a greater profit than in Maryland. . l,There is nothing whatever to prevent any South Carolina farmer embarking in the business. 'A farm band can learn the process in one day, as no previous knowledge is necessary.' This assurance answers the principal objection that will arise iu the mind of every seeker after information on the subject. 4 A start can be made on a very few dollars, that would keep 'several persons busy for six months in the year.' .This answers the next objection. 'A paying market would be found at home, in sup pi jing the wholesale and retail trade and. with a better article than is now' sold in the Carolina markets.' That ought to dispose of the last possible objection that can be offered. " HThe fact is, as Mr; Calhoun , says that the Southern farmer has not tried the experiment of canning and pickling, because he has been under the impression that consider able capital and experience were required to undertake it on even a small scale. The business requires less capital, however, than almost any other that can be mentioned. An outfit that will put up 2,000 three pound cans daily, of fruit or vegetables or oysters, will cost $150, or about as much as a mule. A 5,000 can outfit will cost, complete, 9225. The cans will cost 12.40, or less, per hundred. The canning and pickling business can be com bined, as the same machinery will answer for both purposes. The outfit can-be put up by the most inexperienced person, can be used with steam power, or put In brick, like sugar boilers or plantation wash pots. The business is clean and profitable, the supplies for one cannery can be grown on one farm, or on two or three adjacent farms, and when a steam plant is already in operation it can be utilized for canning purposes without diffi culty." Thire is a heap of, chivalry about General Longstreet. When asked the other day in Washington if the President offered him the place of Register of the Treasury, General Longstreet responded he had not, and if he had he would not accept it, as he bad sueh a high re gard forGeneral Eosecrans he would never consent to displace hishonored antagonist at Chickamauga. On the same gounds he refused to allow his name to be presed for Govern ment Commissioner of the Union Pacific Railroad, as he would not disturb bis old army friend. Gen. Joseph E. Johnston. General Longstreet is a man of heroio mold, a grand old soldier, and a noble gentleman "of the old school." Atlanta News.

Will it Do to Wait! Dr. Nettleton had come from the evening service in tsorne country town to his Lome lor tho night. The good Hdy of tho house, rather an elderly person, after bustling about, to provide her guest with : refreshment, said, directly before her daughter, who was iu the room: j "Dr. Nettleton, I do wish yon I would talk to Caroline.

I wish i you would talk to her, Dr. Nettle I ton." Saying which, she soon I went out of the room, I Dr. Nettleton continued quietly taking his repast, when be turned round to the young girl, and said; "Now. just tell me, Miss Caro line, don't they bother you amaz innlr a lrn f- thia thinfrf7' Stie, taKeu oy surprise at au address so unexpected, answered at once: "Yes, sir, thry do; they keep talking to me all the time till I am sick of it." "So I thought,'' said Dr. Nettle ton. "Let's see bow old are you?'' "Eighteen, sir." "Good health!" "Yes, sir." "The fact isv" said Dr. Nettleton. "religion is a good thing in itself; but the idea of all the time troub ling a youDg creature like you with it, and you're in good health, they say! Religion is a good thing. It, will hardly do to die without it. 1 wonder how long it would do for you to wait !" "That's just what I've been thinking myself," said Caroline, "Well," said Dr. Nettleton, "sup pose you say till you are fifty ! No, that won't do; I attended the funer al, the other day, of a lady fifteen years yonnger than that. Thirty T How will that do!" "I'm not snre it would do to wait quite so long," siid Caroline.

A year from now; bow would that do T" "I don't know, sir " ' "Neither do I. The fact is. my dear young lady, the more I think of it, and bov many young people, as well apparently as you are, do die suddenly, I am afraid to have you put it, off another moment longer. Besides, the Bible sajs, 'Now is the accepted time.' What shall we do? Had we not better kneel right down here, and ask God for mercy, through His Son Jesus Christ !'' The young lady, perfectly over come by her feeling, kneeled on the spot. In n day or two, she by grace, came our. rejoicing in hope, finding she had far from lost all enjoyment in this life. S . Louis Presbyterian. Sharp Trading. Thrifty country people sometimes drive a bargain after a fashion of their own, says the Youth's Com panion. ' An old lady who had been away on a visit wanted her trunk carried from the railroad station to her house, two miles dis tant, and called upon one of her neighbors to ask if he could go and get it. He "reckoned he could," whereupon the old lady asked: "How much will it be uthT" "Well, I dunno," was the care ful reply. "What are yon willin' to pay !" "Ob, I'm willin' to pay what's right." "About how much do you reckon it wutb ?" "Well, what do you say ?" "I skasely know ; I'd rather you'd say what you'd give.'' ''No; I prefer bavin' yen say wnat you think have." you'd ought to "I reely don't know exactly what to say." Alter ten minutes or more of this non committal conversation, the man grows desperate. "Well, would a quarter be too much ?" he asks. "No; I don't know as it would, though I calculated on gettin' it done for 'bout twenty cents." "Well, s'posin' we call it twenty cents, then !" "Oh, I'm willing to pay the other five, if yoa think it's wath it. I want to pay all a thing's wnth." They finally agreed on twenty cents, the old lady saying that she'll "make the other five to him sometime."

It would appear tbat the most ancient canon of beauty recognised by the Greeks was derived from Polycletus (452 412 B.

It is asserted that there are eighty different varieties of toma to, not including the canned. The tomato also has a variety of pro nunciations. YVh hj Farmers Fall. An Iowa farmer in the Home stead gives the following reasons : First The markets, or con sumers, are too far irom producers. Second Too high railroad freight rates, Third Too high rates of interest ou borrowed capital. Fourth Too many dogs and wolves in the country and not enough sheep. Filth Too much fashion, too much whiskey and tobacco, and not enough enterprise. Sixth Too high lawyer aud doc tor fees and not enough general intelligence. Seventh Too much party in politics and not enough principle. Eighth Too much listening to farmers' enemies and too little seeking for common sense for a guide. Ninth Business as now con ducted gives the farmer no part in making prices. When he sells, the dealer makes the price of his produce; when he buys the mer chant names the price he must pay, and both are generally against the farmer. The Care of Children Don't tell the faults or cute say ings of your child in his presence. Don't deceive or frighten (by bugbears) children into obedience. Don't manifest a spirit of parti ality. Children are sure to detect this. Don't encourage in a email child I that for which you will punish him when older. yhen you promise a child some ! thing, dou't iorget to fulfill the ! promise to the letter. I Don't be constantly menacing a child -with I'll whip yon," or "I'll put a stick over yon." Don't trample mercilessly under foot the wishes of a child, but re spect them as far as possible. Don't ever let him see in you a trace of the "I'm-bigger than-you-and you've got to-mind" spirit. Don't punish a child in anger, but let him know tbat you dislike the task, but perform it for his good. Don't do and say things for the sake of causing him to show anger and then scold because he does so Don't say "Ob, do hush up!" or "Don't bother me with so many questions," when a child questions you. Don't feel it beneath yonr dignity to give a child the reason for a re fusal, if practicable so to do; if it is not, your lormer conduct should have inspired Buch confidence to wards yon that he will cheerfully submit though he does not under stane your motives.

Berry, New Berne, N. C COLLEGIATE I have kept np with the work of Prof. Adams in this city. It is genuine and thorough. It is education in earnest. With a splendid building, first class teachers and a judicious course of study, his school is a success. The deportment of his students is the outcome of good government. Bright, orderly and contented, they have learned to apply themselves both as a duty and a pleasure. Learning and Progress are the watch-words of the New Berne Collegiate In stitute, and it is an ornament to Eastern North Carolina. JOHN S. LONG, President of the Board of Trustees of the New Berne Academy. New Beene, N. C, Feb. 11th, 1890 The advent of Prof. G. T. Adams to this city marks a new era in the history ot its educational interests. Under a contract with the Trustees of the New Berne Academy this gentleman took charge of their school property in September last, for the purpose of conduct ing a High Schooi; and what; was at first regarded by many as a doubtful experiment has iu a few short months proved a phenomenal success. New Berne Collegiate Institute, under the management of ProH Adams aud a corps of able assistants is rapidly taking rank with the most rlouri8ing schools of the State. Parants and guardians, desiring for their children and wards a thorough preparation for college, could not' do better than send them to this institution. W. M. WATSON, Sec'y and Treas.
