In peiusingold papers on filo in the e pf j:he Cjork of fhp Superior Courf ) t ,is county it is remarkable to see ' ' -it efforts were made by people a imd years ago to direct and control r v , il.llv Dossosflions - long after they li.. l i -od from the stage of ac tion. The following extract from the will of Daniel Veatos probated in 1703 is an illustration; 1Q0 acres of land on John Mahard's - tTi j lend and bequeath to my son i -r Yeates Ipnfc for life only tlien lent , J,e lawful begqtten heirs of his !,,, for life only, so to be lent to the " ' f nl l-r'Mttcn living heirs of his chil Vf ,i fi iicriitioiitoccnerafion only . t I ) I'U 8(11 1, li'i wuvejrcu It f.,r i ..';f'.l life from i, f 1-rt r-: I n r turn to tne !H ln " tn thi'ttr is writer in (ft ) V.h'.'.U WO'': !, f!liil Memorial Quilt. The ladies of the M. E. Church are getting up a handsome memorial quilt, whioh will be presented to the Parson age at itscompletion. Each contributor of ttn cents will have their name writ ten with indellible ink on a square, and thus be read of and remembered by the occupants of the Parsonage, for many years to come. ' ' J- Organ Music Home. : We call attention of our readers to an advertisement of the Chicago Cottage Organ Company, in another column, and take pleasure in recommending to the general public, a company whose organs have attained a popular reputa tion for their superior musical qualities, artistic beauty and general excellence. This company ranks among the largest and best in the United States,, having a capacity for manufacturing 800 organs per month, and its organs are shipped into nearly every inhabitable portion of the globe. The members composing the firm of the Chicago Cottage Organ Company are men of experience, integrity, skilled in their line, conduct their business on an economical, safe and equitable basis, and we predict for the "Chicago Cot tage Organ" a brilliant future. In this connection we would like to ask why it is there is not a musio house in the city of New Berne ? There is a limit to the demand for dry good's, groceries and hardware, i To extend the trade of New Berne, we must carry every line of business. Why should one of New Berne's regular customers have to go to Goldsboro or Kinston to purchase an instrument? We believe this a fine opening for some man of pluck and energy who knows how to conduct a business of this sort. Important Case On Tuesday last a case of some im portance wad heard before Justice F. W.' Hancock. It was the case of H. Cohen vs. The Neuse and Trent River Steamboat Co., being an action tore cover for the loss of certain goods that were shipped by plaintiff over the de fendant corporation's line to Bell's Ferry. The case was argued by Clement Manly, Esq., for the corporation and by Hon, C. C. Clark for the plaintiff. Judg ment fo the "plaintiff,; defendants ap pealed to the Superior Court. The de fendant claimed : that the goods were delivered to the plaintiff's agent who went along on the same boat, was pres ent when the goods were discharged and received them. The goods were stolen. The defendent denies that her agent received them. While the point in the case may simply be a question of , fact as to whether the goods had been properly delivered or not, still the trial and dis cussion may bring out and define the re sponsibility of corporations in carrying goods.. If they are forced to maintain warehouses and agents at every point tney aenver goods along tne Neuse and Trent river, men many farmers will be deprived of the convenience of landings unless they can always be on hand when the boat arrives, because but few land iogs furnish business enough to justify building a warehouse or employing an agent. . Notica to Mariners. ; Notice is nereby given tnat, on or about May 10, 1884, light-ship No. 44, moored on Five-Fathom Bank, (north east end) New Jersey, will be removed for repairs, and relief light ship No. 4 will be place on wis station. ; Lightship No, 24 is schooner-rigged, painted red, with the word "Relief" in large white letters on eacn side, ana jNo. si' on tne stern, ana has a noop- iron cage day mark at eacn mast-head The fog signal, while JNO. 24 is on this station, will be a bell and horn instead of a steam whistle, v" Light-ship No- 44 will be replaced as soon as the repairs are completed. 13y order of the Light-House Board : Stephen c.

Waynesville News: The Division of the Sons of Temperance at this place is in a very flourishing con dition. About 100 names are now enrolled on the list of members. Work on the two trestles at Howell's mill goes on, while the track is now laid up to the lower trestle. . If nothing prevents the iron will be laid to the depot one day next week. The mica fever remains prevalent in toe mining section of Jackson county. We earn that John Price, of John's Creek, has opened an extra fine mine. Another one has been opened by Nichols & Co. near the same place. A Quallatown cor respondent to the News says the body of a 10 year old Indian girl named Louise Hornbuckle, was found in Soco Creek on the 8thinst. A jury of inquest decided that death was an incident of drowning, while, it is thought, she had at tempted to cross a foot-log, on her way to scnooi. Asheville Advance! Reuben and Hardy Sparks, arrested recently as accomplices in the Flat Rock Mica Mine murder, effected their escape i'rem the jail at Bakersville, Sunday night, by cutting through the floor. The prisoners were evidently t. as sisted by outside parties, since they nau in their possession a carpenter's bit and chisel, which had been used to advantage in making an opening in the floor of the prison. Officers are out in search of the men, but at last reports nothing had been heard regarding tueir whereabouts nor the direction they took after escap ing irom jail. There is another very large slide on the Western North Carolina road, this time at Iieonard's Cut, about ten miles this side of Morganton. The slide is over one hundred feet in length, and the railroad is covered with rock and dirt to the depth of from three to ten feet, and it is said that it will take at least two days to re move the obstruction so trains can pass through to this point. We suppose the mails and express will be transterrea to-day. These slides must be very troublesome and an noying tp the railroad authorities as well as to the traveling public. lioiasooro messenger: The new Methodist Church, which has been in course of construction in this city lor some months is Known as St. i'aurs. A beautuul white mar Jble slab bearing the name has been placed in the front wall of the handsome edifice. -A large crowd of darkeys were at the Raleigh train on iday Jast to bid good-bye to the ten convicts of their race that went up to the "pen" from this county for stealing.

Jordan, of the lt.&D passenger train, just before leaving time last Jmday morning, had two railroad danger signal torpe placed on the track, which, the moment the first wheel of the en gine passed over, exploded with the report of a large gun.

Murray for some days, yesterday made preparations to go to visit the family of Mr, Hugh Hayes, at the ' Cooke farm. She got into a spring wagon in front of Mr. Murray's,, I on West Hargett street. ; The wagon was drawn by a mule, whose bridle , was held by Mr. John Bell, a young man from the Cooke farm. The moment Miss Wainwright stepped into the wagon, the mule dashed off, down West Hargett street.. The young man pluckily held on to the bridle, but was dragged along until at the cor ner of Harrington street ho was thrown " to . the ' ground and the wheels passed Over him, causing bad wounds On the forehead. His injuries are not thought to be serious,: The ' mule fled until on West street it ran into the planing mills of Brlggs & Sons. !: The young uioy was thrown out and struct a pile Of lumber with great violence.

Stonewall Items. We had considerable frost Monday morning; so far as I have seen, no visible damage was done My fig bushes are almost entirely killed. I had a fine chance. I suppose my neighbors shared the same fate. We have had one week'seood weather and many nas been the grains of corn planted and furrows ploughed for other purposes. 1 i .

Taylor; produoe salesman with S. IK. Martin & Co., of New York. If he suoceeus us weu ui seuing pruuuco as ne does acting gentleman, I would surely recommend all truckers to ship to his house. Mr. Tuthill says the cyclone was pretty rough, uprooting trees, level ing fences and the hail stones smashing window lights. He says the great hin derance to northern immigrants to our sectipn is our system of fencing.' The idea of so much expense for the privilege of letting razor-back hogs and pint cows go at lame is more than they can stand Mr. T's son Luke has gone to Idaho to see how he likes that section. Mr. T. reports -garden peas as .not over one third to one-half crop. TheJCincinnatt Riot. Cincinnati, April 1. A large number of arrests of suspicious persons have been made.

An Extraordinary Offer. To All Wanting Employment. We want Live, Energetic and Capable Agents in every county in , the United States and Canada, to sell a patent arti cle of great merit, on its merits. An article having a large sale, paying over 100 per cent, profit, having no competi tion, and on which the agent ia protect ed in the exclusive sale by a deed given for each and every county be may secure from us. With all these advantages to our agents, and the fact that it is an ar ticle that can be sold in every household, it might not be necessary to make an "extraordinary ofpkr" to secure good agents at once, but we have concluded to make it to show, not only our confidence in the merits of our invention, but in its salability by any agent that will handle it with energy. Our agents now at work are making from $150 to $600 a month clear, and this fact makes it safe for us to make our offer to all who are out of employment. Any agent that wilt give our business a thirty days' trial and fail to clear at least $100 in this time, above all expenses, can return all goods unsold to us and we will re fund the money paid for them. Any agent or general agent who would like ten or more counties and work them through sub-agents for ninety days, and fail to clear at least $750 above all ex penses, can return all unsold and get their money back. No other employer Of agents ever dared to make such offers, nor would we if we did not know that we have agents now making more than double the amount we guaranteed, and but two sales a day would give a profit of over $125 a month, and that ono of our agents took eighteen orders in one day. Our large descriptive circulars explain our offer fully, and these we wish to send to every one out of em ployment who will send us three one cent stamps for postage. Send at once and secure the agency ra time for the boom, and go to work on the terms named in our extraordinary offer. We would like to have the address of all the agents, sewing machine solicitors and carpenters in the country, and ask any readers of this paper who reads this of fer, to send at once the name and address of all such they know, Address at once, or you will lose the best chance ever ot tered to those out of employment to make money. kenneh manufacturing Co., 161 Smithfleld St., mar5d&wly ; Pittsburg, Pa.
