There are but three or four houses in the country which could have accom- plibhed tliis, and the firm can more than duplicate it to-day. We clip the above from the Baltimore Sun and take pleasure in adding our testimony as to the promptness with . which this firm fill their orders. ; r,(t, R0fH. f the, inf in ft littifl f rotted over the . rape made1 on Edge- rnrnhft'a territorv bv WUson. and calls it "nil tnrkev for Wilson and all buz- zard for Edgecombe."

Sickness in the county, is not abating. One morning last week Dr. Had ley re ceived two calls before breakfast. Dr. John S. Bizzell has returned from Goldsboro to this-place, and will make it his place of business, for the present at least. ' 1 Glad to hear favorable reports in re- ardtt0 Bt in thele-oe districts, The tax listing now going on shows that the hogs are more valuable than at last year's listing.) : 'i u';' Three new public roads are to be laid off in this township during next week. A plenty of good public, roads, Bchool houses and churches, speak well for the moral and financial condition of a country. , "v Jesse Whitfield assaulted Jesse Moore in this place last week.

' Occasionally a cow strays off, on mis chief bent, and is not "penned." Du ring the night, when all slumbered and slept, the stray one enters 'some one s roasting-ear pateh When the fact is learned next ;morning, and the corn man geeg all hopes of a mess "blasted, he uses some hard words and makes bad wishes against the stock law man. Since vacation began our town shows a deserted appearance. , The ladies are nearly all gone, and this always takes off the young gents; and the young gents are; nearly all gone, and this eB away the young ladies.. Even the principals of the schools (all of -them young gentlemen) are putting on flying arena airs. I don't know what ails Murphy, but somehow he has much travel, and it's all East of this place, Onr town was a little' agitated" Thurs day'evening by -Mrs.--, Nancy Casey; be ing on the streets in a deranged condi tion. It has been' suspected for some time that Mrs, Casey's mind was giving way and on that evening her conduct was such as to leave no doubt.

We hope he may bo that fortunate, but the preacher must not be too sure of it, if our preach ers are allowed to tell their experience They inform me that some of onr young people think that the honor of being the choice on such an occasion is sufficient fee. - V : : 1 Maple Cypress Items As I have seen nothing in your valua- ble paper from our section, and as ours is one of best farming sections in East-1 ern North. Carolina, I think it highly essential that it be represented through your columns for the benefit of those who have not been blessed with an op-1 portunity of seeing and judging for themselves. . , ' ; ' ,1 Corn on our swamp lands, known as Charlton swamp, grows to the height of fronv twelve to sixteen feet,; and yields patient of confinement, , proceeded to from twelve to fifteen barrels per acre, despoil, desolate, macerate, and oblite Cotton grows from eight to thirteen feet rate this engine of destruction to his high, and produces from one and a half tribe. The trap was completely torn to two bales per acre. They are also adapted to rice and potatoes, which we make in great abundance.. But for fear I of getting into the hands of a discrimi-1 nating public I will forbear to say more of swamp lands at present. Our post-office, . Maple Cypress, de rives its name from a maple growing in a cypress stump at or near the river, but they have not escaped the ravages of, time, for there is not a trace of either left to be seen. But what is more sin gular, there is not a great way off an other maple growing in a cypress stump. The maple is about twelve or fifteen inches in circumference. Maple Cypress is midway between New 1'erne and Kinston, a distance of twenty-feur miles to each place. - It is also the same dis tance to Hookerton and Greenville, and about the same to Washington, placing us within the limits of a commercial center. We have a line of steamers plying the waters of the classic Neuse, which affords us -ample facilities for transporting', our. produce to market, bringing us nearer market than those who live nearer and have not the benefit of navigation. In regard to crops, our cotton and rice are better than any ! have seen this season. Cora is not so good on ac count of bad stands. s. The copious show- ers we are receiving daily will soon play havoc with our low lands if they continue much longer. Every bottom and sink are full, and still it rains. One of our neighbors; Mr. C., relates that he was plowing a few days ago, when there c ame up a shower, and before he could unhitch his horse the water was over knee deep where he, was standing. ;We don't doubt Mr. C.'s veracity, but think he must have fallen in a ditch, Bro.' Ephraih. 1 i Hookerton Items. Mrs. McLohorn is dead. ' .' , ' Mrs. Sarah Hart is quite sick. . The steamer Snow Hill is making 1 regular trips again. Crops are looking remarkably .well since the recent rains. - Drs. Jordan and Edwards visited the La Orange commencement last week. Frank Rountree, Jr., and John Came ron, or lunston, were in town tms week, t . - Prof. E. W. Wilcox, of Hookerton, is among the teachers 'of the Normal school in Snow Hill. ' A' man came to town a few nights ago and put up at Sprawls' and became a black man before day-, -. , ; ;t It is said there is an old gentleman in this county to stingy that when a fly gets in the sugar dish, he catches him lhe lets him go. . ' , . ' ,t , Seven Springs Items. :' Tne progress of reparing the bridge goes on slowly indeed but we have a kind, affable and polite ferryman in the person of I, S. Davis, jr.,' who carries people over the river almost in a twink ling, bag and baggage. ,'. , The Superintendent of Public Instruc tion in Lenoir county says : that the ttatement in the Free Press last .week, to the effect that there would be no Teachers' Institute in that county this summer, was. entirely . unauthorized. The Institute will be held and teachers will be notified in due time. - ' 4 There ought to be an ordinance of the town forbidding the running at large of all 'hoes without a badge. Joe Allen says that hogs are a' perfect inucflaoe to a town, and that he thinks the pestilen- tial sublimity of hog cholera is due to the acrimonious -multiplicity of the multifarious circumambulations of hogs. Our young friend John McRae, from Kinston, "did ceaseless vigils keep" over his sick horse for two days and nights last week,: but merit' has its re ward and : John drove on his way rejoicing on i the third day. ! Deponent sayeth not; how much soft soap, turpen tine, chloroform, salts, castor oil, spice tea, milk and molasses, whisky and assafoetida a horse's stomach may hold without producing spontaneous com bustion.' John is puzzled to know what cured his horse and it is quite a puzzle to others that the horse did not die. Our friend H. E. Spenoe, in addition to his duties as town constable, runs a fishery on the Neuse ,". River. : Every morning he is seen toiling home; with dead loads of fish. But Henry's pisca- torial aspiration came near to an un- timely end the other morning. He visits that trap alone no longer, but with friends tried and true. His fishery was found in a dilapidated and thoroughly demolished condition.. Some prowling monster of the deep seeking whom he might devour, entered the dangerous precincts of that trap and being im- from its moorings and presented the appearance of a target for rifle cannon. It is thought that nothing less than a monster whale, a sea lion or a hippo- potamua could- have committed such depredations. COMMERCIAL. NEW BERNE MARKET.
