A Pretty and Enjoyable Place and a t; oml Crowd of Visitors the Whole Summer Tbrouib. When the intended excursion to Ocra coke by the steamer Trent this summer, the only one to that place proposed, was given up, our citizens missed what we are satisfied would have proven one ol the tno-t pleasuiable events ot that, kind of the whole summer. Although Ocracoke is only 05 miles from u, very few of our people have ever visited it a single time, owing to the lack of good and regular communication, w ith it so the novelty of a visit there would, in itself, be an attraction, and in addition tiere is enough in the place itself to chann the visitor. DOWN NEUSE IUVF.R. The 52 mile trip down our majestic and constantly wideniug river NeJse is, as all know who have maele the trip, a treat of itsell, the interest in which increases as the watets spread out into the expansive ones of the sound. The ih-nsent :oolness as you glitle swiftly over the spaikling waters, the changing scent ry and the ever rolling waves all aid iu enhancing its de liglitfulness. INTO THE SOUND. Then, as you proceed the light houses liegin to present themselves to view, first the Neuse river hghl just at Its mouth, then Biant Islam! Shoal L'ght and South west and Northwest Royal Shoal Lights (the latter two kept respectively by our fornn r townsmen M' ssi s. C. 15 and E. L. Kee'er; and Ocr.tcoke, Light on the ocean side of Ocracoke, k3pt by Capt. Howard. Atone point on the journey all four of the last mentioned, aud also Harbor Island Light can be seen at once; some times tlie passing steamers and sail ves sels go close enough by some of them to hail the keepers. The one at Ocracoke is visiter! without difficulty by the pleasure seekers at that place, as it is right on the land; it is of brick ami is about 73 leet in height. Ocracoke has had a line season this year probably the best in its history an 1 un excelled, take it tlie whole simmer through, by any other resort in the State. One of the latest attractions there is the encampment of two of the Eastern mili tary companies, which we have mentioned lielore. We will tell what a time they are having by giving the following clip ping from the Washington Progress: "On Friday evenjug a swell ball was given at the Hotel to the young petiole ol the Island, who turned out eu masse. The young ladies weie tastily gowned in neat evening dress, and the young nun were gallant antl untiring in attention to thcui, and the round dance and quadrille were much enjoyed by all. The guests at the Hotel were highly entertained on this oc-i-asion. Saturday evening a mo-t enjoy able german was given." Afn-r the german a mo-t pleasant sail was given by ('apt. Howard an I Lieut llait, and on our return Dr. H. M. Git'bs gave a watermelon party which was en joyed immensely. UOVT. WORK l. OI K SOI X OS. Another Dredge at Orrncoke-Work Iletcnn in Roeue Sonnd. The work of making a t lmnnel through the shoals in Bogue Sound, about twenty miles west of Beaufort was begun this weak by a Charleston dredge. Tlie chan nel will be sixty feet wide four and a half feet deep nnd alsaut three miles long. Messrs. W. II. Chadbourne and Capt. Dave- Robert, who had Ix en down to p e scene of operations came up to New P.erne Tuesday by rail leaving the General Thorn at More-bead. They returned by the right train ac companied by Inspector E. K. Bryan. Inspector Frank Brown had also been telegraphed to join them. They lift for the Government work at Ocracoke. One dredge, as we have told before, has been at work at Ocricoke fin a few mouths past. Another' Nor'olk dredge started for the work last week. This ad dition will considerably expedite the por tion of the work remaining to be performed.

'flic one in the morning covered the peril d from the time ol Christ's minis try to the prtsent centurv; the one in the evening the period Irom that time to the present. The first in a very brief manner outlined in general the whole scope ol church history; the latter was confined to that branch ol the Christian organizations with which he is connected. Both dis courses wire lwsol upon the concluding verses ol the stcond chapter of Acts. Mr. Krindle liegnii by quoting the words of Christ 'upon this rock." (that is upon the truth that h" was the Christ, the Son of the Living God.i "I will build my church. " From this Mr, Brlndle deduced that the churth was then in the luture, yet to be etai.h-hed ami he counted its iK-ginning from the day of pentecost. He showed the simplicity of the early church us it first existed, both in worship and government. ' continuing steadfastly i- the Apo-t ! s doctrine and fellowship j mill 111 bn ak;t:g of bread aud prayers" ; and having no officers exctpt elders or Pre-by bis tor governing, ami deacons who wi ic the servants of the church, and each church being subject to no outside binding authority, a- higher officials or authoritative bodies. This simplicity of worship and govern ment continued for a century or two, but ah ut the third century, possibly toward the close of the second, apostasy of 'he church began to set in, with a tendency towards centralization of power, and dis play i:i worship. The exact date ot the lern Vive ti'om eiriy -imphcity ami parity launot be fixed f r apo-lasi in come grauiially. not all ol a sudden. In tins departure Irom (he early simple practices, tlie city churches being the strongest began to exercise control over the wcaktr country ones aud tlie apistasy grew in strength uutii power over all was centered in Rome, the most influential city of that nge. Then set in the rq palling period ot about 120O ytars in the church's history known as The Dark Ages when ignorance and supertition swayed the w hole -worhl. j. This continued without opposition until the great Maitin Luther was raised up, who was n .t con tent to live miller a spirituil tyriany such as had been declared, and by which both church aud state were dominated. Luther was followed by Zwiugle, Cal vin, Knox, Wesley and other great re formers who exerted poweif'ul purifying aud elevating influences, but their aim was simply to "relorm'' the old corrupt church "not to go back to Jerusalem and restore the original" and the creeds that grew out r.f these efforts at "reformation'' rather than restoration gave rise to the various denominations or scct9. In the early part of the present century there were strong religious awakenings both in this country and in Scotland and Ireland. Kentucky. Ohio. Virginia aud Western Pennsylvania were prominen: in the movement. Barton W. Stone of this country, Thomas Campbell, who Came over here from Ireland and his son Alex ander who came soon after, al! of them ministers, were leaders in the movement. The aim in this ease was not to ' reform" the cxistii g church in any of its denom ination's but to skip alljintervening history and go back to the (lay of pentoco-t and organ ze according to the pattern of the first one as laiel down in New Testa ment History, one with no head except Christ, no creed except the Bible, and wearing no name except that of their head Christain or other names applied to them in the New Testament as elisciples or learners. Thus was started "the Church of Christ'" wheh nosv exists in every state in the union except two, has a member ship of about one million and has 5.000 ministt r.-, foity colleges, thirty church papers, ami twnity publishing houses and about one hundred foreign missionaries. The church has numbered in its member ship, some of the greatest men ol the countrv, such as President Garfield and Chief justice. J. S Bla;k of Pennsylva nia. "It may be a-ked in following the lead of Campbell, do we not lecome a party of his, No. for we do not build upon the w ritings or any ol the teachings of his which ato not louu l clearly to ho in the word of God and lurthermore he never offered to his brethren a formulated creed but asked them to take simplv the word of God." MEWS IN BRIEF. Senator Ransom is practically declared no longer Minister to Mexico, on account of a technicality making his appointment illegal. He may be re-instated. The Board of Trustees of the Washing ton and Lee University elected Prof. W. S Currell, of Davidson College N. C. to fill the chair of Modern languages at the first named institution, made vacant by the resignation of Prof. Harrison. The ssntence pronounced upon Arthur Tuttle, col., who murdered a Winston policeman last May. was twenty-five years in the penitentiary. Forty negroes, who participated in Sunday night's riot at Winston, were ar raigned for trial Friday afternoon. They are being tried under two bills of indict ment lor carrying concealed weapons and lor taking part 111 an unlawful assembly. The first bale of new crop of Georgia cotton classctl about good middling was soltl at public auction iu front of the New York Cotton Exchange for 11 cents per pound. We have a greater variety of religions and denominations than would seem nec essary to suit everybody, yet some people cannot find one to suit them. The Rev. Levi Branson of Raleigh finds that the white people ol the State are divided into twenty-nine elitf ;rent denominations, antl the colored people into twelve denomina tions Ex. A New York dispatch says; At the office of Iloskier, Wooel cc Wood & Co., it is stated that thev will ship $750,000 to $1,000,000 go'd by 'Wednesday's steamer. Prof. T. A. Smoot has taken charge of the Trinity High School, the fall session of which opens September 4. A letter from a friend says that he has captured the hearts of all the citizens, antl that all are enthusiastic for a prosperous year'-s work. Prof Smoot is the right man for the place. News ifc Observer. The New York Tribune from its watch tower sees that it will not be the wisest course for its party to make a fight in If1 9(5 for a re turn to McKinley ism. It says that the country "w ill condemn a man as unlit for power if he is found atl vocat ng particular duties merely because thev were wise in l sOi), for the i'acts have radically changed.'' New York will not get the Democratic nomination in IsOG. unless the Democracy really court dete.it New York publics of any kind are not the politics of tlie peo p'o of this great country. If the New York newspapers can nominate candi dates for both of the old parties it will be done. But the people at large have really some interests of a grave character in volved in the next election, find they will take a very active and potent'al hand in naming tlie stanelarel bearers of both parties.

Though the tobacco Is so good ant .lone 1 unl et nl- ' f I im t with such a ready sale, it was raised by men who knew searcdy anything about tobacco cultuie. They planted it. ended the barn, and cured tlie tobacco themsel ves almost pas untaught experimenert-. This is an indication ot what can be done if special attention is given to it. We f . 1 1 satisfied that we have lands around 1. that will produce tobacco that will rank we.l with any. Tobacco culture has been developing around L Grange for some ytars; increas ing attention is now being paid to it arounel Kinston and we look for its cul ture to cemtinuo to spread through the east anel to assume- important proportions at no distant elav.

The Article ou Tryou's Palace. We copy from the News & Observer this moruing an article on Tryon's Palace, by Miss Leah D, Jones of this city. Though the account is jiretty long the subject is not exhausted by the writer. It could be told how one ol the streets. Eden, was closed so that another, "George" street might be opened in the nrddleof which the palace sat with a wing on either side. The palace was located near the bunks of Trent river, and we have been tolel that originally that stre-et kept a straight course to the river it is the same which now runs by the Fair grounds, and is generully spoken ot us the macadamized road, the general government having im proved it at at a cost of $30,000 because it leads out to the National cemetery. It now bends at the edge of the city. For many years tlie Episcopal church of New Heme has used the wing which still stands as a mission chapel anel s hool. A few months ago they sold it to Mr. F. S. Dully who has remodeled it for a labor atory antl dwellin;. The Weather Record. The following is the weather neord since August came in: TEMPER AT (' TIF.. Max. Min.
