Alt INCKBASB OT OOHrDEHC. - A careful examination of business matters, sounding of various local trade internet and the local senti ment as to the future, re-veals an improvement and revival of confi dence among the citizeus of New Item, which would be surprising to the uninformed. This statement does not mean that there is any borin movement going on or in contemplation, for there Is none. But since the election there has been an ever distinctly increasing wave of better times anil firmer con fidonce in New Bern and ila future prospects of trade and industrial de velopment. The holiday trado in this city, the local retail trade this year, was the best and largest in years. ' la real estate mutters, while no important trades have been con summated, jet there, exists today more inquiry for property in this city thau there has been for a long time. Kyeo in industrial affairs, there is disposition to start enterprises which is likely to result in some de velopments. The natural advantages of New Bern are suoh that its claims can easily be proven as a most favorable point' for the establishment of in dustries of any kind. - In healthy location, in the ample supply of good water, in fine streets nd general prosperous surround ings,' New Bern is attractive to every one who comes here. What New Bjrn needs more than anything else, is more determined "push" ou the part of its citizens. ' There should not be a inero quiet, slumbering feeling among those here that they have a "good thing," bnt they should proclaim it, and let the outside public into the "good thing," nd make it better. There is nothing against New Born today, which can make its peo ple hesitate for a moment to boast of their city. ' It is all right, geographically, fi nancially,; socially and politically therefore push its growth and de- ' velopment, and invite others in, who can and will assist in the work.

Tbis, however, can hardly eiplaln I be follow ing, wbicb on a merely be onlled a re markable coincidence. We have never beard that the genial antocrat, Oliver Wendell Holmes, was ever aocoeod of stealing from Whittier, nor do we ever remember that any one baa said that tbe Quaker poet borrowed from tbe phy sician. Nor do tbe cirenmstanoea of the present case raise either iasae. . We picked np tbe other day at a seo- ond hand bookstore a copy of The At lantio Monthly of Jnuoary, 1870. In it we found that the two eminent poets hove mentioned while writing on total ly differ out tbnnies gave two lines that are strikingly alike. Mr. Whittier's is Never by lover my lips be kissed. aud Ir. Holmes wrote. "Lips instlovur bss never kissed." It la rntber an ex traordinary coincidence, as we have said.
