Aug. 14 1 About two-thirds of the Nantucket's crew j last night allowed "'shore leave'' and their J merry songs and yells could be heard! oxer the entire town. The fair maidens! began a-seinbling at the Garrison, and as the Heserves marched up in charge of selected Coxswaiua Williams of Wilming ton and Bray of Charlotte, the girls gave three rousing cheers which were respond ed to in a thunderous way by about thirty Reserve seamen. Tlie night, until 10 30 o'clock, was spent walking by moonlight with the lo vely Southport girls. The boys, after a night's rest, xvere awakened this morning by the bugle call at live o'clock. After two hours' hard xvork the mens squads was formed on deck, and one of those tine meals that only Joe Hinton can serve wis placed be fore them. They took advantage of his kindness, and ate as only seamen can after scrubbing the deck and placing canvas, and doing many duties uhijll you can only realize if vmi were on broad. Wi'. star. .ieii.

After tin- routine w.uk of theia i c dl. the Reserves were on the eve of going t breakfast, when the stately Montgomery, one of the latest, anil newest warships ol ' ic United Stater, came in and anchored, about one hundred aids from the Nan tucket. While the Litter's crew stood watching her, numerous were the compli ments paid the "thing of beauty.'" and she was considered far ahead of the obi Kearsarge of last year. At O.oOo clock Commander F. Win slow and Lieut. F. T. Tyler. U. S. N., went to the Montgomery to pay an offi cial visit to the officers. The crack crew ol the Nantuckot manned the Captain's gig in performing this duty. Boat drills were the order of the morn ing, and were followed up by the same ex ercise in the early afternoon. The crews were picked from the green men and a few blisters have been started, but fun is expected to begin. ou the Mont gomery to-morrow. Later the Reserves xvere taken over to the Montgomery and xvere instructal as j to the process of firing the guns ot the ; ciuiser. It was e.xpecle I that the cruiser j xvill take the bovs out lo sea next (lav I and give them a practical test of firing her rapid shooting guns. Upon arriving at Southport, a i porter of the Messenger took a sailboat and went over to the cruiser and was cour teously admitted on board. The Mont gomery is a new steel cruiser, built tit the Columbian iron works. Baltimore. Md. She is a twin screw vessel, and is 257 feet of keel and 37 leet of Ije.im.

Their being o well pleased with what they saw is largely the etiuse of this particular importation, but it is count'il that the agency which lias worked most potently in this regard is the little buuk "The Manual or No. ill Caro lina," which is opening the exes of out siders to the manifold advantage- ol i very section of our good old State. Mr. George R. Sherwood of Kentucky has written a letter, which is now in the possession of Commissioner of Agriculture- Robinson. Mr. Sherwood ays xve have no idea how many fanners of that section ate coming South. There has I een a lailure of crops there for three years and this year the failure is complete. He savs it is hard to make the Southern people appreciate the condition there. an- there never was such a time lo i work to secure good birmers South, and that if the Western farmers could buy some of the good Southern farms on easy payments, we would lie surprised to see how large a number could be induced to come. The above may furnish some facts which the Watson k, Darnels hand Com pany of this city or other organizations can take hold of and xvork up something profitable to themselves anil benelic.ial all around JONES COUNTY DEMOCRACY. Former Financial Wreck of the County. Fine Condition Xow Uphold Those Who Hade It So, Editor Journal: I am a former citizen of Jones county. Have not had had any business relations with any of the officers of the county until recently in a long while. I notice a remarkable difference between the ay in which the finances of the county were run then and now. Then county vouchers were worth under the old "Regime'' only 40 cents ou the dollar. Now they are worth dol lar for dollar, and if the county treasurer by some mischance were to happen to be absent when an order became du; almost any one would cash it in fact the pres ent sheriff makes a practice of doing so simply for accommodation's sake. How is that for a change? Verily and truly the times have changed for the tetter. As an old citizen of Jones county, whose wellare and prosperity I shall ever desire, I am proud of her present board of eonimissioners and also of her comity officers as well. Under the old '"iron clad regime'' you had either to take forty cents on the dollar or nothing, unless you waited almost interminably for your money. Now whenever an order is ap proved the treasurer of the county sits serenely and smilingly on hand and grace fully hands over the money, dollar for dollar. Such men as I. I. Simmons, sheriff, Lafayette Dillahunt. jr , James F. White, and A. C. Haskins are the right men iu the right places. Thev cannot lie Ijought for money. They aie too pure to soil their hands or Consciences with bribes, or speculating on the necessities of the peo ple. They are too pure and honorable to rob the poor of their hard earnings so as to enable themselves to gain a little 'filthy lucre"; nor have they gone to the poor house and deprived the inmates thereof of their scanty fare and apparel. What a contrast between then and now; and the people will take a note of this, and give honor to whom honor is due xvhen the election comes off next Novem ber by re-electing them if they so desire ir, the same old set of officers who helped by their voices and acts as well to place old Jones county on her present elevated financial standing. I'lease don't forget it, and yet this 3rd part7 sometimes called the "'People's party," which is a misnomer in its in fantile and embryo state not yet off with its swad lling clothes with the Repub lican party for its "god father'' in its ignorance and simplicity has the hardi hood and the presumption to ask the peo ple to give them a lease of power in ord-r ihat they may have a pull at the "pnbb teat'' when they have not even yet ;ot shutof their milk teeth without & name and without a record. In dusky obs uritv groping their way to high places of hoin.r and renown with no pretentions or claims, save ignorance, "sote-headed-edncss and irrepressible ami inimitable cheek to urge them on, could Grant's, presumption and asinine chcex go furth er ? I think not. Now then, inasmuch as the present in cuinbeiits have done their duty so well and faithfully we believe the people of Jones county will also do theirs oy giving on next November such an overwhelm ing majority as will make 3rd partyisin wilt into the unknown and unknowable ; lrom xveence t hey sprang. Methinks now j 1 eau see them as they skulk ay to ! their obscurity, one by one, like the wild beast to his lair, and lie themselves down j to take that political sleep that knows no i awaking. j As physicians in extreme cases have to i resort for a cure to 'heroic tieai ment,'' so also jwill the 3rd party receive the , same and hence the political undertaker's services xvill be in requisition. Will they ! come again ? I think not, for they will ! lie nio-t effectually squelched, and the places that tioxv know them xvill know ihein no more forever. E. F. H.
