We notice nearlv everv dav the dravs loaded iwith Northern hay being car ried into different 'parte of the, city. Whynot raise it here V We talked with Dr. Latham, when in; Washington last week, and he tells us he has clover about waist high and not patches but fields of it. If it can be thus raised in Beaufort county it will grow equally as well in Craven. We hope to get an ar ticle from Dr. Latham telling of his plan of work. Young Prisoner. Mr. D. C. Parker, the mail carrier between Trenton and New Berne brought down on Wednesday, one Charlie Cook, a colored" boy about 13 years old, hunting quarters is Craven street jail. This youth was caught con cealed in Charlie Foy's store at Trenton, intending to open the door after night and let in confederates. He has been engaged in a number of crimes in Jones and is a notea onenaer. Nense River Jetties, In talking with Borne Kinston men few davs aeo, we learn that the jetties alreadv placed in Neuse river by Gen eral Ransom are producing one effect WI11CU wjxi uiaiitsxuxi-iy mux uavignuuu.

Walking up stairs we find the hands at work, making a lot of lemon Btick. Perhaps our little readers would like to know how the beautiful stripes are made around a sue k, 01 candy with so much regularity. - We will tell them what we saw. -The sugar is put into a copper kettle,- about one gallon of water added to every ? thirty -pounds.- Tris is - set to boiling, and before it is done cooking, cream of tarter is added to prevent its returning to sugar.' When' through cooking, a small portion of the lump is pulled until it; is perfectly white, the balance of it is worked into an oblong shape and . the . white!: laid in- rows xengtnwise all around it. xhey then begm at one end, having it on a clean nice table close to a heater, and pull, giving it a twist every time . they pull. In this way it is drawn out to the proper size.' : This is the way. the lemon candy is made. . ; No doubt every boy that reads this will think he can make candy. No doubt he can put sugar in a kettle and boil it, but to make it successfully will require some practice. Old Tfmen., ji Last Wednesday night as a Journal reporter was wending his way home ; he fell in with "Mayor Howard who was walking up and down the side walk in I front of his dwelling enjoying the stiff breeze that had sprung up from union Point. Feeling just right to hear remi niscences of old times ye reporter called a halt at the porch,-' and was promptly invited in by the Mayor.- Taking seats opposite each other in the balmy breeze the conversation ran thusly ; sEeporter "There has been ? quite a change in the trade of New Berne, es pecially in the products orougnt nere to market within the last twenty five or thirty years." V;. t Mayor "O lah, yes, yes ! It used to be a great- turpentine - market. Some people say that New Berne is 1 doing more business now than ever but ' I dont think so. il can Temember the time when the freights ; were piled ; up on every wharf so that you cqifid Jiard ly pass.

The Stockholders of the Newbern steamboat company are invited to at tend a general meeting, which will be held at the house of Mrs. Emery, in Newbern, on Monday the 11th of March 1823, for the purpose of taking definite measures in regard to the concerns of the company. Distant subscribers, who cannot nersonallv attend are invited to appear by proxy. By order of the Directors. - " Wiliiam Gaston, Pres't. Stephen M. Chester, Sec'y. Newbern, Feb. 28th, 1822. Thus, I have shown the result of the first effort of the citizens of the town to establish a steamboat line or to run a steamboat in any direction from this place. After the lapse of fifteen years another tiial was made and I quote from The Spectator, a paper pub lished in Kewbern on Friday, 13th of September, 1833, as follows con cerning it: On Friday, the 6th inst. the steam boat John Stony, destined to ply be tween Newbern and Elizabeth City, arrived from Charleston. At six o'clock P. M. oh "Monday, she set out on her first trip, landed her passengers at Elizabeth on Tuesday in time for the Northern Stages, and returned at two o'clock A. M. on Thursday. The John Stony is well adopted to the line, and I the proprietors are determined to use every effort to accomodate passen gers and to render this connecting link in our Southern route pleasant and per manent. By the present arrangement the boat goes to Elizabeth twice a week, but as soon as it shall be found necessa ry, she will go three times. From the general feeling that prevails in favor of this enterprise, we may safely say that there is now a greater probability of its success than at any former period. This route, if properly connected, is undoubtedly the natural one for the intercourse of the great mass of our population who inhabit the Atlantic States; and. 11 the linn Detween this place and Elizabeth can be, firmly established, the greatest ; difficulty of the whole line will have been surmount ed. The owners of the John Stony are de termine'to run a boat from Charleston to some port in this State, probably Wil mington, as soon as travellers shall have taken this direction, in . sufficient num bers to authorize the additional ex oense. Such a connection, permanently estab lished, would offer facilities and com forts to our Southern merchants and others to which they have , long been strangers in their journeys to and from the North. We have now four horse post coaches running three times a week between this place and Wilming ton Raleigh and Washington, and the proprietors are ready to increase their numbers and the frequency of their trips to any extent which the public ac commodation may require. The agents spoke of this steamer as follows : The elegant and capacious steamboat John iSfOMy, -Captain Green, has com menced her regular trips between New bern and Elizabeth City, and will be governed in her ; operations by the fol lowing schedule : First trip Leave Newbern on Monday at 5 p.m. Arrive at Elizabeth on Tuesday, in time for the Norfolk stages. Returning Leave Eliz abeth at 8 p.m. on Tuesday, after the Norfolk stages arrive, and reach New born at 6 p,m. on Wednesday, in time for the departureof the Southern. Western-and Northern stages. -, Setfod Leave Newbern on Friday at 5 p.m. Arrive at Elizabeth on Saturday, in time for the arrival "of the Norfolk stages. Returning Leave Elizabeth .at 10 p.m. on Saturday, after the Norfolk stages arrive, and reach Newbern at 6 p.m. on Saturday. : Passengers will re main ; in Newbern till ; Monday after noon, ft the time of departure of the Southern, Western and Northern stages. v4j Travellers: who adopt the Atlantic route, via Georgetown and Wilmington through Newbern to Norfolk, are in formed 1 that by the present r steamboat route there will be a saving of one hun dred and twenty miles land carriage, with a considerable reduction in the price , or rare, and a great addition in point of ! comfort and convenience. Those who travel the route via Fayette yille and Waynesborough to Norfolk, are informed that that line is intersect ed to Waynesborough by the Raleigh line of stages at this place, and they would find it much to their interest and comfort to adopt this route. J. M. Granade & Co., Agents. Newbern, Sept. 13th, 1833. Within two months after her first trip, the John Stoney had also been "banished from our shores," the business on the line would not keep the boat running. This steamer made the trip in about the same time the Xeicbern is running now none but light freight was carried on her. There is no exageration in the advertisement respecting her condition and finish. For the time the John Stoney would have been a first-class steamboat any where in this country our citizens had no direct interest in her. J. M. Granade & Co., however, were merchants in Xewbern. Mr. C. V. Swann brought a small steamboat here from the North some fifty years ago which run tor a while about Newbern : this steamer was not of much consequence and soon disappeared. Mr. Swann settled on Bay River and lived there for many years and then died. He was one 01 the pioneers in the steamboat business. The Emery house referred to in the notice of the Norfolk Steamboat Company, is now the residence of Mrs. Judge M. E. Manly, on the Neuse at the end of New (Neuse) street. There in the olden time as well as in the present time, many illustrious persons have assembled. There beauty, talent, wit, wealth, and bravery have been accustomed to shine and dazzle, and if the old walls could give back the words that have reverberated around them, we could hear there still James Monroe, John C. Calhoun, EdwartfEverett and others in ad dition to a throng of the eminent men of our own town and State. It was long Ihe home of George Pollock. It was also the head quarters of Gen . Palmer the Fed eral General commanding this post during the war. It was Mrs. Emery's boarding house, and Presi dent Monroe was entertained there during his visit to Newbern, by our citizens, with royal hospitality. Mr. Calhoun was then Secretary of War and with him. 1 will say more of the visit of these illustrious public men here after and of the banquet given them at this house. J). W.
