Yesterday a large swarm of bees came
from the North side ofc'Neuse river and
pitched on a tree on East Front street.
Rnv. Mr. Bull, tlie great bee man of the
community proceeded to hive them.
We noticed at Maj. Dennison's gin

We, publish above the circulation of
the Jocekal of to-day. We do it, not
with any desire to boast, for there is
nothing to boast about in tlie figures of
the Daily, but as a matter of business.
We seek advertising, and to get it we
must snow to our .advertisers a chance
for obtaining something for their money ;
and wc purpose in the future, on every
Wednesday, to give our bona fide, circu
lation. In confirmation of our figures
our mailing book will always be open
to advertisers, or to any one else wish

Daily, we know that our present list ia
not even a respectable one. We have
made no extra effort to increase this
list so far; for, in the first place, we had
our hands full in getting the paper
started and under good headway, and
we knew that there was a pretty con
siderable opinion in the community that
our efforts would result iu failure', and
therefore we were willing to wait our
time and establish ourselves fey' persist
ent hard work. ,
Now we have been here one month
and are beginning to feel at home. We
know we are making a good paper and
believe that our subscribers appreciate
it. We want now to extend our circu
lation. We propose to stay whether we
increase or not, but we are not doing
the good that could be done if we had a
larger circulation Our advertisers are
not getting as much benefit as they de
serve, nor, we are frank to say, are we
getting as much money from subscribers
as we would like to get. We have in
the city a canvassing agent, Captain
Thompson, and we bespeak for him the
aid and assistance of the friends of the
Journal. , If you like the paper tell it
to your neighbor, and help us to extend
it.,
We purpose to make the Journal use
ful to New Berne as well as remune
rative to its owners, and both these ob
jects can best be accomplished by a

Swansboro Items,
A heavy fall of vain and considerable
hail, accompanied by a severe wrind
almost a tornado visited this section
last week, which did some damage to
the crops. Luckily the hardest winds
did not strike the crops and fences of
the farmers or they would have been
blown to atoms, as the severe winds
twisted the trees to pieces and filled the
air , with limbs, leaves, and pieces of
wood for miles around.
Mr. Nathan Gorntoahd Mr. A. Farrell
think they will have to plant-some of
tuAr-x ottoti eroxrSve)r again, bu- thei
I weather, is fine now, and everything
j looks well considering the snap, etc.
All are done planting, and their crops
look well. Mr. Farrell is chopping cot
tonthe first one, I believe. By the.
way, he has some fine stock in the shape
I of hogs, cattle and sheep. He lately
sheared five head of sheep, and realized
45 pounds of fine wool. Four of the
five were ewes; one was a ram, from
which he got 13 pounds of good fine
wool. They wTere what Mr. Farrell
called the Cotswold half breed stock. I
think this will do very well for wool
gathering in this or any other State.
The sheep are two years old. I also saw
a very fine Devon short-horn bull, be
longing to Dr. E. W. Ward, which is
certainly a fine specimen of the bovine
tribe. Dr. Ward is a lively, wide-awake
farmer; he has also some fine breeds of
hogs; so has E. W. Fonville, A. 3.
Hurst, jr., L. 0. Fonville, and others in
this part of the county. Marion, the
merchant, is also in the farming busi
ness. He has a gin, fishery, oyster gar
den, and store all combined in a small
compass; that is, being near the river
with his store he can attend to all of
them in a very short time with very lit
tle help. He has a vessel of his own
running regularly to WUmington and
Baltimore, where he buys his goods, and
he is doing a good business.
We have good preaching in the neigh
borhood every two weeks. Rev. Mr.
Leary, Baptist minister (Missionary),
i and Rev. Mr. Warlick, Methodist min
ister, Circuit preacher, are good speak
ers; and have large audiences at their
appointments. Hope to be able to send
a large list of new accessions to the
churches soon. ft.

Colonel Yates and Captain Andrews,
Acting Superintendent of the Midland
Railroad, wrere in town on Monday on
their way to visit the surveying corps

have gone over eight or nine miles.
The Magistrates and County Commis
sioners met in joint session on Monday,
and elected " J. M. Mewborn to the Infe

As I have told a joke cn some of the
Kinston lawyers; it will be well enough
to talk of their good qualities a little.
The bar here numbers bix, and, con-
trnrr to Hip nniiiinn crfmprnllv cnfor- I
tained about lawyers, none of these six
are fomenters of strife. Very often
would-be "clients are persuaded by the
manly and sensible advice of counsel to
abandon their belligerent intentions.
D. Et Perry, formerly of Jones, is the ;
youngst member of the bar, and, with
his reputation before him, gives promise
of a bright and successful future. His
manners are pleasant, making him
friends among all his clients; and, as a
matter of news to the ladies, he is un
married and does not want to remain
His partner, Mr. A. J. Loftin, with
one exception is the oldest member of
hia profession in the place, and, with no ;
exception, is one of tlie best read law-
yers in this or any other bar . He is not
a good speaker, but hia research into !
the principles and practice of law is;
deep and thorough, making him at all 1
times a safe adviser and a reliable advo-:
cate. '.;' '.':'-.'".
; From the firm of Wooten & Gray you
find two good speakers. Mr. Wooten !
has long had the reputation of being
the best jury lawj'er appearing at the
Lenoir bar; while Mr, Gray is gradually i
winning a similar name. The latter
gentleman has the advantage of a finely ;
modulated voice and pleasant address,
and is destined to make a brilliant jury T
advocate, unless strange to say about a !
lawyer his diffidence should keep' him
back. We remember hearing the cele-,
brated Judge Battle say that he never ;
got up to make a speech in his life with
out fear and trembling.
The last firm to be mentioned, Jackon
& LcftiUj make, a strong team. Every
body knows that '"Brother Jackson," j
though slow, is sure, and that w hen he j
goes through a case he leaves no point
overlooked. . And he s an effective
speaker. He talks w ith so much earnest-
ness and apparent sincerity that he often 1
convinces the jury against their previous I
judgment. But the junior of the firm !
is the fighting member (in its legal ;
sense) and he will contest every inch of I
ground before yielding, Mr. F. B '
Loftin is bold and self-reliant, k a hard '.
worker and a hard fighter, and when a j
.desperate case ia. on dec ke. he. $3. wore
otten Bought than perhaps any other
lawyer in town. While the cenior of
the firm is pacific the junior is a little
like the typical Irishman at Donnybi ook

on his coat tail in order to get his hands
on his enemy's scalp.
