l otion Seed OH. -3 ;
The article in the Journal some days
ago, on the use of cotton seed oil for cu
linary purposes, induced Major Denni
son of the New Berne Cotton Seed Oil
Mills, to order a barrel of ''the refined
oil, and if it turns out to be as recom
mended, he' will add a refinery4, to his
mill.
In Memphis Tehn. ttndjj in! Georgia
this oil is recommended as far superior
to lard for cooking purposes! It
claimed to be both purer and cheaper,
and is certainly worth a trial. If it
comes up to thev claims made for it it
will greatly enhance the value of cotton
seed and thus add to tho material wel
fare of the South. . , , , , ,f , ; , ,

The crowd at the polit-e station yes
terday morning was unusually large.
While they waited5 for the appearance
of His Honor, policeman Hardison en
tertained .them by spinnning a few
yarns. "';.- ;;.
He told if two strong boys in Cate-
ret county Mr. Midyeltes who went
into a swahip to cut a mast for a vessel
and when they had cut it down hitched
a yoke of oxen to it to pull it out but
they couldn't budge it: ro the boys dis
charged the oxen . aud pulled the poll
out with their own hands.
("I want to tell a rat story," said he.
' '"Go ahead," said others.
"Once there was a man in Greene
county who moved, and when he moved
he-"- !
"What is that V" said Mr. Levi Bray,
peering at something on the side of the
wall. ' i iJ''':! '
"It's the number of wards in the city''
said one. 1 '
"No, it's the telephone arrangement,"
said Marshal Gaskins. "Go on with
your rat story." , ,.yt-N v V,

received this was about to give the po

fendant. '
Defendant plead not guilty.
Mr. Clark wished to know if His
Honor would try the defendant for vio
lating the city ordinances, or would he
try him under the general law.
His Honor decided to try him- under
the city ordinance.
Mr. Clark argued the question as to
jurisdiction of the court, claiming that
his client, if tried and punished in this
court, would still be subject to indict
ment and punishment in a higher court,
thereby subjecting him to punishment
twice for the same offense which was
unconstitutional.
Mr. Moore argued that the Mayor
could proceed under the city ordinance
in order to ascertain the nature, of the
offeuce if seriousdamage was done, etc.
Mr. Clark admitted that serious dam
age was done and expressed a willing
ness that his client should be bound
over to the Superior Coart.
The Mayor appealed to the city coun-.
sel.Mr. Clement Manly, who stated
that Mr. Clark was right if lie admitted
seriousdamage.
Mr. Burgess gave a justified bond for
his appearance. -Helen

John Harris took the book.

"Do you know the "nature of an oath V"
"No sir.,"
"Stand aside."

knocked him over into the river. Archie

Eiutohs Journal.: I have feebly set
forth the advantages the South possesses
over the West, and am forced to answer
a question that naturally suggests itself,
to-wit: Why have these shrewd and in
dustrious people never discovered these
advantages themselves? Here again, at
the risk of being wearisome, I must in
troduce a witness from the experience
side. I once enjoyed the hospitality of
a Delaware farmer who had located in
that fertile portion of Maryland known
as "'luekahoe Neck, ' but still owned
his old homestead in the little State of
three counties. He was what is regard
ed there as a wealthy farmer, but an in
defatigable worker. Everything on the
farm passed under his rigid scrutiny,
and at his1 place I saw the first self-bind
ing reaper at work, outside the exhi
bition at the Centennial.
During the visit I said to him, "If you
were down South and worked as you do
here you would become immensely rich
iu a few years."
Yes, sir," Baid he; "I suppose I
would; but down there you don't like
work."
. "No, sir," said 1; "but I believe that
is a disease common to the whole family
Of mankind, and becomes epidemic only
where they can live without it, or with
very little of it
'That is true," he remarked; "but
then your people think work a disgrace
and look down upon working people."
"That," said I, "is more imaginary
tlian real. Education, refinement and
religion, are a passport to the best of so
ciety, and, with the possession of wealth
secures a reserved seat all over the
South. "And the laboring classes are
recognized as much or more than in the
North, provided they have sufficient of
either or all of these accomplishments
to entitle them to it,
'Another instance T met a mill man
from New Jersey. Said he, " How w
the milling interest in your State!1'
Very good," said I; "an illustration
will show yorr; ; About a year ago
called to see a country merchant in the
county of Halifax, North Carolina, on
business It was- Thanksgiving day,
and . he . had not many customers to
servie, so he asked If I had a little while
to spare to look through his newly' erect-
;ed. jmilhi I told him I would take the
time as I felt great interest in Buch im
provements. So, after taking me up
and down, showing the elevator, bolting
for making good Hour, 1 notieed quite a
number of barrels of Hour stacked up.
Said I: 'This, I suppose, is flour that
you have ground on toll for your neigh
bors?' 'No, sir,' said he; 'that is my
own ground from my own crop of
wheat, and for sale to my customers.
It would amuse you to see the letters
and postal cards I receive almost daily
from dealers from whom I used to buy
flour; each one supposing that he had
lost my custom from some cause that he
could have explained away if I had only
advised him of it, while the truth is I
have brought Minnesota right down
here into North Carolina and am play
ing the role of farmer, miller, merchant ,
railroad, canal boat and steamer right
here on this little hill, and giving my
neighbors the advantages of them all.' "
This, of course, charmed the Jersey
man. "But," said he, "how about my
politics? I am a Republican; would I
be safe down there?"
Here his wife said, "Well, am a
Democrat; that would save him,
wouldn't it?"
"Well, sir," I said, "if you went down
there to do a milling business your pol
ities would not be of great consequence
to any one. You could select your own
company, and if you did not make your''
self otherwise obnoxious I would be
willing to guarantee you against acci
dents or injury simply because you are
a Republican."
These illustrations seem to answer, in
the main, the question suggested.
The South has been ever held up as a
labor despising people, a set of aristo-
ats, that looked with contempt upon
everybody who worked for a living,
and as a lawless crew who would regard
the indiscriminate slaughter of political
pponents a joyful pastime.
Why this has been done and why it
has been accepted by our northern
neighbors as tine, is not a part of the
matter in hand, the discussion of which
would be of little use and of less inter-
st to those who see in the bright future
the dissipation of all such errors and
the realization of facts as they are and
as they will he understood by all
intelligent seekers after truth. When
the aaud in the South shall be as
much dwelt hihui as the htl, and our
irtues painted on the same canvas
with our vices, and our merits weighed
in the same balance with our demerits;
when the visitor shall come among us
to learn the cause of our prosperity and
the source of our happiness, and go back
with attractive narratives of the voyage,
nslead of proclaiming a devout thanks
giving tor his miraculous deliverance
from the atrocities of a semi-barbarous
ace and safe return to civilized life,
which has heretofore been too much the
case; when the keen eye of interest
shall peep through the veil of prejudice,
uid behold a land flowing with milk
and honey where was reported swollen
streams of human gore.

now owned by the Government, have
been occupied by colored squatters who
refuse to pay rent or move out. Mr.
Robinson' is here for the purpose of
legally ejecting them and placing the
Government in possession of its own.
There are about twenty of the houses.

which lias stirred up -the, blood in the
Democrats.
Newbernian ; Blackberries are now
bein!.' hawked on our streets at 5 cents
per quart. Theae is not much danger
ot starving in JNew jscme. Jivery
man in the State who now differs with
the Democratic party, dares to entertain
honest convictions and to express his
opinions, no matter how faithful he has
been m the past, nor wtyat nave been
his sacrifices for the good of his party,
is now written down by the majority of
the Democratic papers as a disappointed,
chronic office seeker, a sore head, and
a fool generally, and this passes current
with some tor conclusive argument

The fish season; now having virtually

During the past two weeks one or two

then in the fall will come the cotton and

is. The day is dawning and the good

Albemarle sections. , Immigration has
started, if in a small way. On Saturday

in this place, and took , the Juniata for

This is solid living wealth, and we hope
to see more ot it tor other sections.
