The Coming- ol the Sn iss Minister.
The meeting of the City Council to
decide upon the time tor tiie Swiss Minis- j
ter to come to make the flag pivsciitatiou 1
was postponed until tonight. A meetii g
of our citizens has a!s- been t ailed tn I
give expression of the r views upon the j
mutter.
It has been suggested that some later
than one in Fair week w ill he better than
that time ami reasons have been advance ! j
for it, but wc be'ieve, with the light now
before us that it would not be wi-e to
suggest any change of time. Mr. Pioda.
himself, in bis letter says: -T intend to
come to Xew Berne th- Lit ,r,t!c nj
nunrA" and he asks nothing about the
fixing o the time except to bg notified'
which "day" of tbat week will l.c con-1
considertd here the most convenient tor ;
the reception cf the flag. j
The minister, of conrs-., know s we have j
i a Fair in progress during -the w eek he has
dt-Hinated, and for aught we know that ;
i is the very reason he fixed that date, and I
the selection of any other time a t ter be '
I has designated the time he ''intends to j
come'' might not be considered by him
to be the proper thing no matter what was I
the cause of his selecting that date.

Arrested for Perjury.
A postal card from Beuifoit iuforms
us that Dr. L. W. Perkins has be. n arrest

prosecutors being the State and C. R.

Dr. Terkins, it will lie remembered, is
the examiDg physician who turned Slates

ance cases and swore to his own whole
sale lying in filling out the application
blanks, and Mr. Hassellis the agent whom
