TSE EXCELLENCE OF SYBUP OF HGS
is doe not only to the originality and
simplicity of the combination, but also
to the care and skill with which it is
manufactured by scientific processes
known to the California Fia Sybup
Co. only, and we wish to impress upon
all the importance of purchasing the
true and original remedy. As the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
by the California Fio Sirup Co.
only, a knowledge of that fact will
assist one in avoiding the worthless
imitations manufactured by other par
ties. The high standing of the Cali
fornia Fio Sykup Co. with the medi
cal profession, and the satisfaction
which the genuine Syrup of Figs' has
given to millions of families, makes
the name of the Company a guaranty
of the excellence of its remedy. It is
far in advance of all other laxatives,
as it acts on the kidneys, liver and
bowels without irritating or weaken
ing them, and it does not gripe nor
nauseate. In order to get its beneficial
effects, please remember the name of
the Company

The steamer Newberne left here yes
terday with all the potatoes and beans
she could carry. This was not a full
cargo, for the steamer had to stop at
points below to take on more.
The A.4N.C. railroad also carried
large train loads of . potatoes and
beans.
There is urgent need for a barrel fac
tory here, as the demand far exceeds the
supply on hand, and delays are neces
sary which are often both vexatious and
costly to the shipper.
The barge load which arrived at
Meadow s's a few days ago was unloaded
sad sold right at' .the boat, the demand
being so urgent that the barge could not
be unloaded before buyers appeared for
the barrels.
There were a number of farmers in the
city, yesterday, all of them with potatoes
and beans.
The quality of the potatoes arriving
is fine. '
Reports from the farmers who were In
town, all agree that the potsto and bean
crops are goed ones, in quantity, quality
and price.
Fifty to seventy-five barrels per acre,
which sell In this market at $1-75 per
b'arrel gives most satisfactory returns to
the farmer.

Capt. Charles Henry Is a eolered" man
some where arannd sixty years of age and
lives at Beaufort N. C. and it a native of
that place. What ever adventures Capt
nenry had In' bit early dtys,
fat reserved for hit later years an ex
perience that would have tried the en
durance and pluck of much younger
man.
On the 83th of last April, he went fish
ing off tht ihoals that make down be)ow
Beaufort harbor. While twelve miles
off Ci pe Look Out a violent storm swept
down npon his frail boat. It became
unmanageable, the fury of the wind and
the quickly raised teas dashed hit craft
about. It toon became a wreck and left
the Captain clinging to the portions that
the fury of the storm bad spared.
Captain Henry drifted about in the
ocean and waa carried in a southerly
direction. No help reached him until
the second day of May. By that time he
had reached the South Carolina coast
and was about thirty five miles off George
town. .
Here the steamer J. H. Miller bound
from New York to Tampa, Florida, to
be used to transport troops to Cuba hoyo
in sight and picked up the cast-away.
He was taken on board and carried to
Tampa. There he obtained passage on a
vessel bound to Baltimore, and thence
came by boat to New Berne where he
arrived yesterday morning.
His friends all thought Capt. nenry
was dead. They will welcome him home
and he will be glad to get home after his
hardships, for he is as one "cast up by
the sea."

port yesterday from the Cuban coast.
"We were near the Cnban shore the
other day, near Bahla Honda, when the
Spaniards opened fire on us from a small
masked fort, and also from some field
pier ei they had on a hill. We answered
them from our guns and in a little while
there was no masked battery left. We
were not Injured lo any extent although
it wus quite hot for a few minutes.
The Manning is a new ship, has only
been finished about one year and was
built for a gunboat, but has been sta

She mounts three 4-inch rapid rifled guns,
four (l-pounders, two Maxim machine

Editor Journal: I have noticed re
peated accounts of misconduct on the
part of the colored tioops now stationed
at Fort Macon, as published in various
Democratic papers in this Slate. The
same papers have pi in ted reports of mil-
treatment and dissatisfaction among
these soldier.
I had occasion to visit Fort Macon on
the Clh instant In the interest of the
wives and mothers of the New Heme
troops, with a view to furnishing tbem
with money and provisions while wait
ing on the government for their pay.
It gave mt a most gratifying surprise
to And the colored soldiers comfortably
situated in their-lodging apartments,
and amply supplied with all the neces
saries of life. Major Young has given
particular attention to the comfort of
hit battalllon, whllo Lieut. J. T. York
hat won the affection and esteem of all
tht officers and soldlort by bis courtly
and plessant manners, and the keen eye
he keeps for the welfare of tht New
Berne boys.
There wat not a single man dissatis
fied er desiring to return. A visit to the
Fort will quickly disprove all reports
