The boat is 83 feet in length, has three boilers .and two engines, of 36 horso power, draws only twenty inches water, and. is. propelled bv one wheel astern. .- A number of our citizens , had an op- porrunicy oi testing nr .speeu on nu nesday at the invitation of" the owner. and. were ninclv pleased with the trip, Her accommodations are quite good and sufficient for 15 or 20" passengers. ' She is commanded by an , experienced mas ter, and is no doubt suited to the design of her owner. She- left here on Thnrs- d ay ; for, "Waynesboro om her ; first trip.'

The cap- tain states : her running time- from Waynesboro to vNewbern - at about 1 1 hours., i The obstructions in the way of her running from - Newbern to Kinston were not found to be very - great.; It . is believed that 2,000 expended in lear- me out logs from the bed of. the river, treesijoverhanging- the banks between here and Kinston etc.; would enable the 'Wayne to. navigate that part of the nv er at all seasons; 3,000 more expended Detween - Kinston and ' Waynesboro would in au probability .""put .the river in navigaDie order tne wnoie distance, nearly or quite all the . year-"-We have not space now to enlaree , on the ereat advantages to thef upper, counties, that una wouid secure; we shall do so - at another time, but as the court ' sets' in Kinston- the first week in- January, we oeg leave to su ggest and earnestly Tecominend that the citizens of Wayne, Lenoir, etc; hold a meeting in -Kinston on Tuesday, Jan.- 2, to consider the pro priety of "making ' on eff ortto. clear the river, j we understand, and we cannot see now it can be otherwise,- that much interest is felt in the success of this ex periment, to run a steamboat from New-, bern to Waynesboro.

This may ibe done after your visit to the city of Ral eigh, with the loss of only a day or two; and with that view a steamboat will le in readiness at Waynesboro for yon, by which you will reach Newbern in one day, and from this place you can ac complish your journey to iNorfoiK in a day and a half. In thus conveying to you this heartfelt expression of the wishes and desires of our fellow citi zens,, permit us, sir, to add the testi mony of our own high regard and es teem for your virtues and exalted worth, and to urge upon you the acceptance of our invitation, which will indeed afford great gratification to us all -- ' We have the honor to be, - Very i e3pectfully Your ob't. servts., James W.

' I should be most happy to accept the hospitality which itj so generously tenders ; but i regret tnat the fatigues, and engagements, incident to the arduous journey which I am per-.. forming will not allow me that satisfac tion. Although at its commencement. I restricted myself to the acceptance of invitations from plaees lying directly on my route, 1 find even -that limitation, imposes on me a . degree of excitement incomputable with. the due preservation of hiy. health; and luring the" residue of in v journey , I shall have to entreat alt the forbearance, and kindness which my fellow citizens can extend to me. I invoke .. that; of , yourselves, and your constituents for . respectfully declining the invitation with which you have honored me, and for which I offer the expression of my .. profound acknowl- edginents. .,. , - .1 am with great respect - Your friend and ob'tservt " '"-- , . - ' H.

On Main street, has for sale the cot tonseed oil for, cooking purposes. We have! tested, it .and , as a substitute for lard; it is a complete success. : The oil is clear ami cheaper than lard and has a better "flavor."-3 When we say cheaper we mean that one gallon can be bought for 80 qents and - that twa table- spoons ful are enough for one pmt of flour. Mri Murray, about the 1st of "January last, ordered a small can of the oil for trial.V : HiH last order was two, barrels and he lias another lot on the way. It is, cheaper, purer and also more health ful ,-. than ' lard. . The; only ? thing that cooks must gitard against is in using too much; tout this can easily be done.

Dockery, Esq., for Congressman-at-Large, and Col. Geo. N. Folk for Supreme Court Judge, to succeed Judge Rnttin, or at least to try to follow him. Col. Dockery is "my son Oliver," (as old Gen. Alfred Dock ery used to call him,) of Kichmond county, and his family has long been among the most prominent of the "Pee Dee country." He has served in. several "Reconstruction" offices, without becoming personal ly smirched, which is saying agood deal. .He is said to be very wily and politic in his canvasses; and was opposed bv a faction of his party on the plea that he lacked the j requisite "backbone" and aggres ! siveness" for snch a campaign. Col. lieorge JNatuaniel loik is a native of Isle of Wight conuty, Virginia; but has resided in North Carolina since 1853. He served in the Legislature several times prior to the war; and raised the first company for the famous First North Carolina Cavalry, in which regi ment he served two years, when he 3va made Colonel of the 0th North Carolina Cavalry. He was wound ed at Cbicamauga and Pea Vine church: Alter the war, he resumed the legal pr fession at Lenoir, Caldwelt county, and represented that District in the Senate in 1876. He was given the chairmanship of the Judiciary Committee in a body embracing numerous prominent lawyers, such as ;Maj. John Gra ham, Col. Junius Scales, Isaac F. Dortch, Col. IL"B. Short, Oetavius Coke, W. T. Caho, M. S Robins, Col. Thos. M. Holt, Col. John W. Cunningham and others. Col. Folk is a handsome, black bearded, man, of fifty-two; and has a great deal of vim,- particularly in looking out for number one. He is a cousin of Gov. Vance, and a brother of Mrs. S. D. Wait, of the Connecticut Mutual Assurance Bu reau in this city. Mr. Editor: Many citizens were glad to see in your paper to-day the suggestion to allow the cows to run at large tor a short time. : Last summer was very sickly grass and weeds grew in most of the streets and vacant .lots to an alarming extent.

Walker nmrag (lie Immovable Jewels As we came among the "Immovable Jewels -this morning, one of them, a cotton broker, said : "Walker, do,yon know that this is the only country where Jews are- allowed to hold an office? Did yon know that they are totally unfit for office?" "No sir," said he of the Obscriw, I know no such thing. I have heard of some Jews who were the most illustrious men the country ever produced. " "Who were they, sir?" Said be, "they were Abraham, Moses, Solomon, David, Jndah P. Benjamin, the Bothchilds, and a host of bright lights." "How do you know they were Jews?" . .Via it possible" said Walker, "that you can stand there and listen to this priceless list of names, venerable with the dust of ages, and the darkening stains of times indellible pencil and feel your heart burn and throb, : and your eyes grow dim and misty with the memory of Valley Forge, Bunker Hill, Roancke Island, Fort Barnwell,the Tus caroras and the Battle of the Nile. How do I know they were Jews? I find it in the 20th chapter of the Neirs and (X server, 7.00 per annum. " Mail ltontes. Col. Thos, B.

Any sugges tions as to changes and the wants of our people will be carefully considered by him. Letters to him at Washington, Goldsboro, Elizabeth City or Edenton, Will reach him safely, and will no doubt work to the bettering of the mail ser vice of Eastern North Carolina. Make your wants known and the remedy will be applied. Worth state In-ess. Mrs. Mary Bayard Clark expects to pass a portion ot tne summer m the mountains, at Warm Springs, or else where, and will contribute chatty "so ciety letters to this paper, and others. She has so large acquaintance from Maine to Mexico, and "the isles of the sea," that her facilities for hearing the news are equal to her talents in telling it. The JWeiooerntan says her articles last year were worth hundreds of dol lars to the Morehead hotels. Farmer ft- The Board of Trade of the citv of New bern contemplate at an earl' day an excursion trip either to Asheville or Baltimore. A pleasant time is antici pa ted . Neivbernian . It is real naughty to fool an editorn that style. A few hours after the ZVeM' bemian came out the Board of Trade held a meeting and decided to go to Spring Garden in Craven county. But we suppose the "pleasant time" will be had anyway, for the Committee op Re freshments is filled by Messrs. C. H. Blank, Alex Miller and James Redmond Bergner & Engel in the ascendency. Mau meeting. We see on the streets a circular call ing for a Mass Meeting of the Demo crats of Craven county on Thursday June 22nd, for the purpose of endorsing Hon. C. C. Clark for Congressman-at- large. Mr. Clark's friends, realizing the ad vantage of a county endorsement as suggested in the Journal of the 14th inst., are not satisfied to allow his name to go before the State Convention with out it even though he requested his name to be withdrawn when brought forward in the county Convention. A mass-meeting will have more weight than the expression of choice from the Convention; and we suggest to Mr. Clark's friends to make it a mass-meeting for a half dozen adjoining counties, and let prominent speakers be invited from Lenoir, Pamlico, Jones, Carteret and other counties, which have already ndicate d him as their choice for Con gress man-at-large. The second district is clearly entitled to this nomination, and Mr. Clark, by common consent, is recognized as the choice of this eastern section. By reference to the official School Re ports of the different States, for the year 1882, it will be seen that North Carolina has only 46 school days in the year, it bein the least number of any State in the Union, and yet Democrats are boast ing of what they have done for the ed ucation of the children of the State. Official figures show what they have done. North Carolina, under Demo cratic administration, is paying less than any other State for educational purposes. Asheville Citizen. While this charge may all be true and is to be deplored, is it not a little cheeky to come from a Republican paper? Give the Devil his due and tell what improve ment the Democrats have made in edu cational matters since coming into pow er. Tell what they have done for the University, for Normal Schools, for white and colored, and for the great body of Public Schools in the State. They have not done enough, but yet a rapid stride has been made in the bast ten years. We learn from Messrs. Clinton and George Simmons of Jones county, who were in the city Thursday, tliat fire is raging in the pocosiii near Mr. E. F. Sanderson 'b. The second crop of strawberries are fine. They sell at ten cents per quart. Spring chickens are handed around at from twenty-five to fifty cents per pair, according to size. Bryan Cummings, col., has brought in to Mr. Geo. Allen a bunch of fine oats, five feet four inches high. Business begins to look lively in How ard's shipyard. About ten hands are at work on Capt. White's new boat. Fifteen hundred pounds of wool was sold at the Exchange Thursday. Mr. W. H. Oliver was the purchaser, paying about twenty-two cents per pound. Mr. J. L. Rhem was searching Tur ner's Almanac Wednesday for rain. He says the crop, both corn "and cotton, is the smallest he has ever known for this time of the year. A shingle machine arrived on the f reight train Thursday evening for Mr. J. O. Whitty's mill at Pojioksville. It has a capacity of making from five to eight thousand shingles per day. Mr. J. A. Meadows received by the steamer New Berne on Tuesday ten thousand sacks to be used in shipping corn. He shipped six car loads of corn over the Midland road on Tuesday. !!. 1.
