of the county's 60.000 subscription to
the road will be heard at the next term
of Superior court in Lenoir county. This
$110,000 was to have been paid upon the
completion, of the road from -Wilmington
to Jacksonville, the other $30,000 upon
its completion to New Berne.
It would have been better for th bonds
j to have been promptly issued when the
railroad complied with its part of the
, contract.
Signs of the good that the railroad is

J be seen all along the line, anel it should
I moreover, be borne in mind that the
bonds are cot a gift to the road, but
simply a purchase of that amount of
stock in the road. Whatever earnings
may acvru to its stockholelers vill in due
proportion' be shared thereafter by the
c lunty.

Carteret's Fish and Oyster Interest.
The fishing and oyster industry of this
place aud Morehead Citv is an immense
thing. The waters around here are equal
to the gold mines of California1. How
many mn in the county who depend en
tirly for their living by what they catch
from the water. And here of late since
the drop-seine lias come into use boat
loaels are caught at one haul.
Last week fishermen went insielc ol the
bar and dropped their seine- some of
which are 200 yards long, aud they would
begin to haul in ut'.d take out the fish
that would be entangled in the meshes,
and before they would pull in half ef the
net the boat would be full
and they would have to cut
the seine in half and leave it for soiue-
. body else's boat.
200 tons oftish left MoichOad City one
morning last wet k.
We (lo not doubt but that the fisher
man would get better prices for their fish
if we hail a better financial policy, but I
our people cannot complain of hard ;
u.iies as long as nsu win run. Carteret !
county is indeed the richest county in the j
