George Credle was mad yester day morning. An extraordinary Oc currence. Says he was mad clean down . to his feet. . j j- 'y '.iJXi. i; Mr. J. B. Fiver, of Beaufort, was in the city yesterday buying the sails and . outfit for his new sharpie which will be launched next Thursday. ';-".-r., The steamer Geo. H, Stouti of the Clyde line, came in about noon on yes terday from Baltimore with a good car- ' go of general merchandise.;. ; ; The chairman of the board of county . ..commissioners bought and turned into . the Register of Deeds on yesterday $5, 000 of Craven county bonds. Prof. P. P. Claxton, of the Goldsboro Graded School, spent the day in our Graded School last Friday. , Prof, Clax- "v ton is & graduate of the University of , Tennessee. VjJ -; i :'.;-.. The "Bell" medal was presented last Friday to the Second grade for the best per cent of attendance during the month ending . June 8th. The presentation . speech was made by Prof. P. Pv Clax ton, a former pupil of Prof. Johnson's in the -University of Tennessee, and ' . who has been elected Principal of the Kinston Graded School. , ' . Quite a sprinkling of Jones Countians in the city Saturday. We were pleased , to meet and shake the hands of Sheriff ; Koonce, I. T. Wilson, ' Jos. Simmons, . Dr. C. J. Mattocks, Geo. K, Dickson and ' John Pearce, Esq. The last named gentleman reports the usual fine oat patch, and that cropB are pretty! good generally. He is preparing to erect a new gin house and to put in machinery with more capacity with an eye to put ting in cotton seed oil machinery some day.. Mr. Dickson and Dr. Mattocks l report labor scarce and inferior We notice that Maj. Dennison has on the Clyde wharf a large lot of cotton f ... seed oil ready for shipment, Every cent that this oil brings is a clear gain to the community, for it has been - demonstrated beyond a doubt that the . meal from a ton of cotton seed is just as valuable for manure or feed after the ' oil has been taken out as before. This same rule would apply in manufacturing any other goods. The town or city that - can handle the cost of manufacturing anv goods gets the best profit out of those goods. ; ' The article alluded to by the Joubn At was earned by us from the Jnews-uo- " server, and as that paper published it ' without credit it appeared as an origi nal article and we very properly : gave -. the News-Observer credit for it. . We . had not read the Journal containing " . ..i the Mticlo,Nvt Shell. ih ' Xt :. i$ ' If our brother would read the Journ aiAs carefully as we do the Nat Shell ' we hardly thnp there would be' any ' necessity of clipping New Berne news ..'.-. from a Raleigh paper. We notice that " ' the Messenger copied the same article - , without giving us credit, and a week or , two ago the Wilson Advance published 7 " -an item which originally appeared in the Journal and was afterwards cop led in the Star the Advance getting credit for it; and again, sometime ago the Franklin Times copied an- editorial bodily from this paper and. never gave us credit. But we will not complain. We all do things that we ought not to do and leave undone things which we ought to do. Let us endeavor to mend ; .'Our ways. -I ": - (Church Services. Rev. E. M. Forbes will hold services :at Christ Church Episcopal this morn. -.ing and evening at the usual hours. llev. Dr. Burkhead will preach at Neuse Street M. E.

I Cotton Sales. - I The sales of cotton at the . Exchange for this season to date foot up 20,855 bales against 21,047 bales the same date last year leaving a deficiency in this year's receipts of 692 balep. Before the close of the cotton year Aug. 81st this deficiency will be reduced ; to less than 500 bales., i At the opening of the present year it was estimated by good judges that not more than thirteen or fourteen thousand" bales could possibly be marketed here on account of the short crop. We insisted , that if good prices, compared with other markets, Were paid, that the news would be car ried through the columns of our Week' ly Journal to the surrounding counties and cotton Would be drawn here that had been heretofore diverted to other markets, sufficient to make up for the short crop. Our predictions were about true. , , What' In a Name. , ! A new fish has appeared in our mark et and the difficulty seems to be in find' lug the right name. Mr. W. H. Oliyer says it is the "hallibut;" Mayor How ard pronounces it the "heck" or "hal- lett;" Mr. Thos. Williams declares it to be ' nothing but a freshwater codfish; Major George Credle and Walter Biir- rus, ' two w Hyde county men and ought ' to know the names of all the fish in or out of , the sea, know it is none other than the "horse mackerel;" Capt. Bragg from Ports mouth, whose knowledge C.f fish no one can dispute, calls it the "pilot fish;' Mr. Geo; N.Ives, whose long experience in the, fish trade entitles his opinion to great weight, says it is the "caven- augh," and Mr. ? Carhart, 'the truck dealer, has seen many. of them selling in the Norfolk market at 12 to 15 cents per pound, and he knows it is the "boni- to." This last name is the one for the fishermen if they bring such prices as that.f ' " .. ' ," , - Baptist Picnic Mr. Editor: The Baptist Sunday School Picnic, though last on the list, Was byn o means the least, either in en joyment or numbers, We started from the city precisely at seven o'clock Friday morning and our trip down was not marred by a sin accident, but after a most delightful run of two hours, we arrived at More head. After being informed that din ner would be 'served, in the dining room of the New Berne House (where by the kindness of Mr. W B. Wiggins we had been invited) : between the hours of twelve and two,. and, that the train would leave, precisely! at six, we went our different ways, some ' fishing, some to Beaufort, while others enjoyed the musio and pleasent breeze at the At lantic Hotel. , Returning to the New Berne House at twelve we found the, dining room filled, and the large-tables completely surrounded by- the little folks who seemed "bent" upon destroying all that lavish hands had placed upon the heavi ly laden tables, and the old people must haye felt disheartened, as they beheld crowds of children- eagerly pressing in to fill the places of those who had been fully satisfied. But; to think amaze ment, , as well ; as ' satisfaction they found upon being admitted to this most delightful of places (at that time) that the same kind hands had again loaded the tables with all that was good to eat.' At. last the crowd had all had dinner, and then Bailing partieB were formed, with as fine a breeze as ever old ocean", could ' furnish,' nearly all had embarked for the different points of attraction. At this, juncture; (after dinner) Mr. is George Credle, who had during the en- tire morning, been prominent in afford ing amusement for the young ladies, was misBing, couia nownere De xouna, therefore we sailed without him. Our destination was the Fort, -..'where we ar rived in a very short time. The day waa delightful, just clouds enough to prevent the sun from being oppressive. The girls could , not resist the tempta tion aud therefore they went wading in the sea. Well, as all such occasions do, I the time passed off too swiftly and we were soon reminded that but a short time remained of this most pleasant of days. ,:A:;'t-sCuc4?.nW-l"i:J I Upon , our return, to tthe hotel we le&rnad that tltr: Prnitln huA hnnn fniinri 1 after ' enjoying a short nap of three hours. ..!; ":.: y Six o'clock arrived all too quickly, and five minutes past six we started for home. During the entire day nothing I occurred to mar the enjoyment of the occasion, but tne day was wholly given Capt. J. P. Darling, of the U. S. Sur to innocent amusement. ' We , arrived Vey has finished his survey of Clubfoot's home at eight o'clock tired but pleased Creek, and, leaves to-day for Newport and we all hope to be on hand the "next River and Harlowe Creek, where he time. B. Kinston Items.! One of Tar horn ' fairnRt f1ftiicrhf,PT. Miss Eva Bell, is visiting the family of Dr. J. T. Walsh, her relatives at this place. Young and talented , school teachers are carrying the day in this section, witn tne fair sex. Several marriages are spoken of which indicate good judg ment. ft thn uh?rTi AnifVafitiw nnriaa " The Trustees of the Einston Graded School "have killed the goose that laid the golden egg" for them; but, with rare good luck, have found another 'goose" to take charge of this school the ensueing year. Charles W. Burt, the auctioneer man of this place, has recently rented the storehouse in New Berne, formerly oc eu pied by J. and M. Hahn, and will open a branch house there on the 20th inst. Snow and Dennis and Traylor will assist him. gayor Uzzell, besides studying the intricacies of Coke, i Blackstone, and Uhltty, is turning his attention to rais ing fine stock. He has recently bought Leon Albritton's fast . clay bank mare and her colt, and now owns the most val uable animal in the county. The batteries of the town constable opened last Saturday on "Tray, Blanche, Sffeet Heart" and all other- dogs, not ornamented with town standing collars. An earnest prayer is before the city fathers, asking a special dispensation in favorof the bench-legged 'Zip" that has taken up with Justice Coleman. A fine hog, belonging to Mr. Everett Brinson, farm manager of the late R. W. King, for which he had been offered $13, was taken down with cholera. He Was advised to give many . things, but nothing did any good until he bought a bottle of Pollock's No. 7 and adminis tered it to the helpless animal, giving one teaspoonful in water two or three times a day for two days. The hog was immediately benefitted, and in a few days was well, This hog after wards fattened exceedingly well he kept her . fifteen.; days, . during which time she gained twenty pounds lost while sick and said he would not give five cents for her. No. 7 is the great remedy for hog cholora and every lady should know it. John Rhem recom mends it highly for. this enemy of the hog. .v Beaufort Items. , ' . Telephone. . Boats are being renovated and repaint ed in anticipation of the summer trade. The Baptist Church has been treated to a new set of front steps, an improve ment much needed; , hy ; ,V j Mr. Theodore Adair is building a new piazza on the front of his residence on Orange street. " 1 Signs of improvement are visible in various parts of the town. Mr. C. V. RobersonV house will soon be ready for "the raising," Capt. T. Thomas is adding another story to the rear portion of his dwelling. The continued rains for the past week or two have kept the farmers from com ing to town, and when a few of them venture in, they seem almost as dull as thev find inactive the merchants, whom and "down in the mouth uth.". :.!.''lV. John Forlaw, infant son of WUliain andSallie Sabiston, died on Tuesday, June 12, 1883. ' It was a little over six months old. ! These parents have been singularly unfortunate with their chil dren all dying at a very early age-1 Many hearts in this community sympa thize sincerely with them inthoir afflic tion. ; yjif'y-yi. .Messrs. Green, Maltby & Green, of the North Carolina Oil and Guano Company, are crowded with fish and scrap, and must enlarge their grounds for drying. , They are holding most of their product for a higher price', as the market just now is dull and inactive, and we think they are justified in so do- in .They have . mvenl htradwd :ions of scrao now on hand. . . i Mr. R. Rowland shiniled on Tuesdav last, quite a large amount of fish scrap totheNavassa Guano Co. of Wilming ton to be manufactured into fertilizers. Why not have it done at home ? With. the four or five factories now in opera- tion in this" county, there is a rare op- portunity for capitalists to invest in-a business that will pay immense profits.

One of the dams across the canal gave way on Monday on account of the heavy pressure caused by the great abundance of rain with us recently. It will soon be fixed again, wui resume ms survey, y i , , ; ; :, Mr. A.

We hope we shall not have such another visitation this year. Mr. W. S..Bell attended Greensboro Female College commencement, his daughter, Miss Allena, returning with him to spend vacation. Mr. M. A. Perkins is also home from the Univer sity. '- We regret to have to state that Mr. J, S. Bell lost another horse last week: cause of death, peaviness. He has been unfortunate in the last month, two hav ing died, but he has this consolation, if he has lost two horses his twenty acres in watermelons are the finest in the community, so say all who have seen them. : Hope they will amply pay him for all his trouble and expense. Mr. J. N. Jones, living in the extreme western part of Newport township, re ports having shot a bear a few nights since whose track measured eleven inch es and he thinks he would have weighed seventy-five pounds to the quarter; he didn't kill him and after he shot, the bear showed fight. We asked, "did you run V" Said no, he never run from anything in' his life but once and that was from one of the most trifling men in the county. The man was lost and kept hallooing, and he thought it was a panther. Said the leaps he made that night measured fifteen feet for more than a mile. From that time hence forward he said Jick will run from nothing. Mr. Jones is a great bear hunter, and we expect to have to report many daring adventures on his part be fore the year closes.
