Internal Revenue in this district, devel- ojed a most correct condition in that county of distilleries: The rottenness was found most glaring in three partic ulars: ' 1st, In the fact that In Reveral instances it was proven that storekeep ers of small distilleries were in the hab it offloarding with the owner of the dis tillery and paying him such fabulous prices for board as to leave no doubt in the minds of reasonable men that the money was paid, not for board, but that thedistillerymightbekept up to the standard required by the government before the appointment of a storekeeper is made. 2d , That the owners of distil leries were supplied with keys to the storehouses, which is against lhe law, as ampie opportunities are thereby giv en for the perpetration of fraud, upon the government, and that such frauds did result the testimony further estab lished amply. 3d, That further viola tions of the Internal Revenue laws were condoned by the storekeekers in allow ing, or being blind, to the fact that three instead of two gallons of spirits were distilled from a bushel, which give op portunities for fraud which will be clear to those familiar with the revenue laws and the distillery business. Charlotte Journal. ' , ' -The Future of New Berne." j ,:! -.n! (W11. New Month.) " ! No' place in North Carolina haa brighter future before her than New Berne, though for many years up to a year or so ago she has been eking out a dull, lethargic existence until newer and younger men placed themselves at the head of her mercantile affairs sought the assistance of capital, put in circulation a first class daily newspaper the Journal, and encouraged the estab lishment of manufacturies. That she has been, "lethargic and antiquated no unbiased mind can dispute; that she is now a bustling, enterprising little city, rapidly throwing off the seedy clothes of a past regime and donning newer and more pretentious garments, is, we hope, equally as indisputable. New Berne is destined to be one of the largest manufacturing cities of the State; if not the largest. Her industries are. not confined to a tingle department, but are 1 varied. ' At present we can enumerate a cotton factory, a tobacco factory, a Cotton seed oil mill, a wooden plate factory ! and ' a canning establish ment. ' Since April, as' we learn from the Journal, five new1 steamers have been brought into her waters. When the Clubfoot aud Harlowe Creek canal is finished, thus supplying New' Berne with better maritime facil ities she is bound to boost forward. And should the Norfolk and Southern Railroad continue its line to her bor ders, this would give an additional im petus to her advancement. As we said, in a former editorial on New Berne; the city needs newer and bettet residences and places of business. Run up to Goldsboro and look how like a bright, new pin she is, with all her fresh paint on, new and prettily de signed residences and handsome brick stores. . Learn a lesson from her, as many other cities of our State could do, Wilmington for instance. PROBABLE HOMICIDE AV EESE. IN I)E- How the Renewal of a DliHculty Re : suits in the Fatal Wounding of a Negro by a White Stan. , ; , Charlotte Journal. . ' , A probably fatal shooting oc curred on Thursday in Deweese township ou the plantation of Mr. Adolphus Black. On the morning of that day, a colored tenant on the plantation, named Kufua . Qniller, went to the house of a young white man named Scott and asked for a horse for the purpose of riding to a neighboring place to purcliase some .whiskey. Scott inquired who had sent him for the horse aud Quiller replied that Mr. Black had done so. Scott expressed his incredulity by contradicting the negroe's ; state ment, whereupon the latter called Scott a u liar." Scott there upon drew his pistol and fired upon Quiller, . inflicting a slight , flesh wound in the inner : part of the thiah. The wound was. however. so slight that after it was dressed the quarrel was amicably arranged between the two ; the horse which Quiller desired was brought out, and, the negro proceeded on his way to; get his whiskey. He re turned about six o'clock that even iug with a quantity of it under his shirt. . . . , Thus-stimalatetl, he armed hini- si'lt with au axe handle and pro coediug to Scott's house entered, with the remark that he had ( come back this time to settle the difli culty of .tho moruiug in a more ac ceptable inauuer to hisowufceliugs Continuing to advance upon Scott with tlie axe handle, the lattci again drew his pistol and fired, the ball taking effect this time in the negro's side mid bringing him to the floor, it is much feared that the wound will be fatal, as all day jrulay the negro was in nn ex tremely erirical condition, and his physician gives little hope for his recovery. Scott has been arrested and laced under bond to await the result of the negro's wound. COMMERCIAL. NEW BERNE MARKET.
