The police had four or five boys iu custody yesterday for violating city or dinances. Mayor Howard was unable to hold court so they were recognized to appear to-day. Sixty copies of that most excellent Juvenile Magazine, "Our Little Ones," and seven copies of "Our Little Men and Women" were received and dis tributed at the Graded School yesterday.

Tux nips and radishes are getting oil nicely, but his field of cabbage is the finest e have ever seen for the season. Ho has some that will mcasuro over twelve inches across. Two or three weeks moderate weather and radishes will be ready to ship. . manure Distributors, We noticed on Mr. Rheiu's farm on Wednesday evening a double manure distributor which was drawn by two mules and distributed the manure in two rows at a time nicely and equally, and can be arranged to distribute broadcast. It does pretty work and is a great labor saving machine. It cost 125.00. ' - In this connection we take pleasure in calling attention to a distributor kept for sale by Mr. J. C. Whitty of this city It can be used witbmy ordinaTy'farm wagon or cart, and it is said from eight to tern acres per day can be manured with it. It cost only $13, and is to con structed that any farmer can do his own repairing. The scarcity of labor will be bound to bring these distributors into requisition. , - ' . Trucking Oas. Our correspondent de Granville which we give on our fourth page, is evidently - a trucker and has been beaten at the business, or at least ho has been beaten in telling ' truck stories. " We think amidst all the wear and tear on a truck er's brain and muscle in preparing and planting a truck farm he ought to be . allowed the privilege of "blowing" a little if it any consolation to this weary mind. We know the ladies should be allowed to brag on their crops and 6urely no man will be so ungallant as to dispute with them. We intend, however, to visit the truck farms near the city and give the true condition of each, de Granville included. Cotton market.

Of Gen.-McAlpine, the engineer who has been examining the Atlantio Road and the Midland to Smith field with & vjew of its extension by way of Fayette ville to Charlotte the Buffalo Express says: "Geu. McAlpine is one of ' the three Commissioners to consider the change of route of the New York Lackawana and Western Railway; is expert for the Mayor and Common Council of New York for increasing the Croton water supply. From here he goes to Wash ington, called as an expert by the War Department to pass upon several differ ent propositions of engineer officers of the United States Army for the improve ment of eastern branch of the Potomac River. He was at one time the chief engineer of the Erie Railroad; con structed the Albany and the Chicago water works. The re-construction of the Erie Canal was accomplished by his engineering skill and under his super vision. He is one of the four oldest members of the American Society of Civil Engineers, and has been its Presi dent. For a long time he was the only American member of the Institution of Civil Engineer of Great Britain which is composed only of the most eminent engineers of the world. He has been for many years a member of several institutions of France, Aus- tria and other European countries, and of almost all the scientific societies of the United States. Was. Engineer-in' chief of the United States Navy, and as such constructed the United States stone graving dock at the Brooklyn Navy 1 1 . i l l : ing work of the country. He has been State Engineer and Surveyor General of New York; and Ghief Engineer of many railroads, and of water works too numerous to mention. Gen. McAlpine is the author of a well known work on "Modern Engineering" for which he received the great Tilford Medal of England, being the only American En gineer wli3 has acquired that distinc tion. .

Tlio entertainment given at the Pres- byterian locturo room bust night was attended by a respectable and apprecia tive audience The pieces were all well rendered but we think it will do no harm to make' special mention of Miss Rosa Schweriu who sang "Come in and shut the door" so sweetly, and of Misses Mamie Allen and Mamie Stimson in the instrumental duet "Waves of the Ocean." The "Three Old Maids of the Lea" by Miss Stimson was quite amus ing' and "Beware" by Prof. Johnson, Messrs. Ed. and Ben Bryan and C. E. Slover was very good. ' New Berne' possesses rare talent for getting up entertainments' of a high order, and we wonder why they don't have them oftenejr. : It is certainly a pleasure to business .men who go through the same old tread-mill day after day to attend an entertainment which for the time, being,, will relieve the mind of the pressure of business. The change is conducive to health as well nn pleasure. . .. STATE NEWS ' Ulcaned from our Exchanges.

One of the most interesting reports presented to the General Assembly this year is that ol the helllisli(Jommission erst. The figures afford a foundation for the assumption that by the time of the opening of work next spring 1 45,000 acres of ground will have been deeded to applicants by the Commissioners These, with the 4u, 000 acres deeded by the towns prior to May, 1581, .will show an aggregate of 00,000 acres held bv cul tivators under State jurisdiction, Of this vast area a large portion has been cleared up and chelled. One firm has laid down Jaau.uuu Dusheisof snens. sev eral large growers have laid down as many as 200.000 bushels each. A still lanrer r number j have 1 . scattered 100,000,'50,000 and 20,000 each. There are about thirty steamers engaged in this business, besides a very large num ber of sailing vessels. If no unusual ac cidents occur the crop the next two years will be enormous. One cultiva tor alone looks for no less than 1,000,000 bushels of marketable natives from his own grounds. ( As the oysterB are. worth from 75 cents to $1.25 a bushel, and will certainly average $1, here is a business of $1,000,000 for a yearf-JVeu) Haven IJtegister , 5 ,,,'.;. Wv. ' The State of Connecticut with not one hundredth ' part of aa much oyster ground as North Carolina to raise 1,000, 000 bushels of oysters and North Caroli na with all of her immense, advantages not one hundredth part as many. Is it indolence, carelessness, or has it been that heretofore we have not had a demand sufficient to take them. Now that the canning establishment is in op eration and that any quantity , no mat ter how many are offered can be sold we do hope that our .' people will take hold of this most important industry and make money out of it. We believe one acre planted in oysters will yield far more actual prof ? it than five will in cotton or corn.
