In the crowd Were, Gov Ellis, ex-Gov; Swain, Prof. Hubbard, W- W-Holden, Esq., Rev. C. H.

At Hi o'clock ' the convention ad' journed to the- Presbyterian church to hear the lecture of Rev. F. M.

'; - We have clipped the above items from the proceedings of the convention to show the interest taken in educational matters just prior to the war. Fn this convention were some of the purest and most patriotic sons of North Carolina, but among all those who figured con' spicuously in; that) assembly we don't recognize the name of a single New Bernian. Was the old town beginning to slumber at that early date on this most Important question? :. i ice o Tha Pic Nic Tuesday.; t-- Ed. JOcbnal: As already, stated in your paper, the Episcopal Sunday school had its annual pic chip- on Tuesday which differed from ordinary ones in that it was a combination of pis nie, eX' cursion, and moonlight excursion all run into one and the same enterprise. ; Just after Mr. Wood's mule fell in the dock, or in other words, about 9:80 m., the snug little steamship, Elm City steamed; out of her birth laden " with a commodiously large cqwd of Sunday school children, teachers and friends and directed her course down the Neuse for Adam's Creek, where ' the landing was to be made and the dinner served It was a subject of regret that the Rec tor and his lady could not join the hap py party on account of sickness, but he had as shepherd of tha flock assembled them at the church and implored the protection and defence Of that Great . rpherd whose watchful eye is ever ct. . r Uicm, and whose presence though i : v!o'ble, is none the less real, conduct 1 1 them to the boat and bade them t lieu; ' . - y Tla Cnnerintendent, Geo.

Tinker and .t cf vr-' 'r'-ors, 8'"nE"cJ c i U2i ) i , Yl'-la tl.e f " ' ' t .v ; C 1 t-0 i' ', , L "i of which were well done from the be ginning even unto the end of the same. About noon the landing was', )reac!,cl and the debarking soon, aocompliahel, and the meandering route to the grove soon lined with little ones and joyous older ones rushing to the frontf! j '. The road ran through a cotton field and by the border of a ditch festooned with wild . roses,' plum bushes and blackberry vines and hard byV a nnnv ber of apple trees loaded with promising fruit, which was temping to mother Eve and also to her numerous progeny. Keep off of that cotton," "children, let those apples alone," f'keep in the road, children," were commands con- Untly heard along the line,' by all, ex cept ihose for whom they were intend ed, until the gate was reached and the serpentine road through a forest deli ta ken for. the beach.: Soon the swept ground, white-washed trees, new seam, tables, "swings, eroquet square, "hick horses" and all are possessed without the loss pf any killed, wounded or miss ing. .The whole establishment was ta ken possession of in the name of Peace! Plenty and Pleasure, and only awaited the arrival of the basket train fo perfect the same, r ,.JS i L ; -- i i, These were soon at hand, the tables loaded with choice substantial, delica cies and such condiments as the like oc casions demand. ' The walk was just long enough and the delay just suffi cient to fill the bill of a first class apeti- tiser, ana xrom appearance was a sue cew; that is, if any apetiser is necessary to the average child at A picnio. , About 6 o'clock, found all on board and the ship heading homewards, and as there was no dancing Mr. Tinker in troduced as amusements a huge tub of lemonade and a general waltz' began and continued throughout the .trip to town. After night the moon shone out beautifully and added the third and closing character to the Expedition that of a moon, light excursion which was terminated at about 9 o'clock,- and all were happy and safe at home and only a few came in minus their head' gear, having permitted their hats to be donated to tne use of the fishes of the river. - , ; . 1 I must not close, this already too long epistle without mentioning the ' singu larity of names along; of Kings there were five Georges! and of that number was our friend George Credle who to 'enjoy himself, greatly and lost no opportunity of using every ef-, fort fa l aid other to eTbtteamrlIrt Credle proved that he can be as enter- tammg ana engaging in manners among elegant ladies as he is with credulous newspaper reporters or when describing one editor. to another. Of the patriarchs there were Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, while the saints were represented in name by John, James, Peter, Mathias and Thomas who was surnamed Diddi mus. - (. C. ' Catharine Lake Items'.

Situated just at !the mouth of , Adams Creek, on the south side of Neuse river and only about fifteen miles from, and in view, of Pamlico Sound, it is one of the finest water views in reach of bur citizens. ; Facing ' westward, on ' your left is the wandering creek seven miles long, in . front,' Neuse river, with its bends and curves' as far as the eye reaches, with ' Wilkinson Point raising its head as if to hide the city of New Berne from view, then turning to the right you see this same river spreading but until the name is lost and the inland sea catches vision and scoops the hori zon: while behind you groves of myrtle, pine, sweet gum, and above you the sheltering .limbs, of huge hickory and other lords of the forest i seem to, wave rejoicingly ,mai auer waiuug w iumij years for the pleasure, they, are at laBt granted the , privilege Of ; furnishing sweet, shady bowers for lovers to shore and , innocents to revel beneath. . , ;' The white sand which produces such an unpleasant glare in the sutt is entire- abiinrahdairwetf-filagB water rushes produce the exaotly oppo" site effect and adds greatly to the com fort of all who may enjoy it.
