Improve the Academy Grounds.
As will be seen by a notice published
elsewhere our townsman, Jno. S. Long
Esq., is to deliver his lecture on
'Nineteenth Century Perils" for the
benefit of the Academy, grounds. This
lecture has never been delivered in this
city, but few of our citizens have heard
it. It is a rich literary treat and we
hope New Berne will give Mr. Long
eood audience. , -
The improvement of the 1 Academy
grounds is one that every citizen should
feel a pride in. It is an index to the
public spirit of our people and we trust
that it will show that they have
plenty of it. ; . -.. , t
More Farmers.
There is plenty of rooin in Craven'
county for more farmers. We want
good, thrifty farmers who have the
means to purchase lands and run a
farm. We believe there are numbers
of these North who would gladly locate
nmong ua if they knew tho advantages
ot our country and knew their invest
ments would be safe and profitable,
V.'o expert in the near future to publish
n series of articles on Craven county, to
be written by one who will visit every
neighborhood, and who will give a cor
reet description of the lands, schools
. churches, facilities for transportation
tn. , :
We believe by doing this we can at
tract the attention of some men who
1 ave rnriTipy to invest in good farm
l.uiu ;, au.l if our land owners will oiler

Improvements In New Berne.
The year 1884 was doubtless a hard
one on business enterprises as well as
an
unprofitable one to farmers. But
notwithstanding the general depression,
New Berne has made some progress,
and we doubt not a survey of theim-
provements for the past year will sur-
prise any one who has not thought about
the matter

We have also erected the following

stores and a row of brick stalls by Bur
rus & Moore; brick store by J. F. Clark;
brick store by 17. S. Mace; iron building
re-built by U. S. Mace; brick office to
ice house by Watson & Daniels; repairs
tD brick store by T. A. Green.
The walls of the new court house
have been completed and the roof put
on, and the Odd Fellows Hall built by
the colored people has been completed.
Besides these, numerous repairs have
been added to houses which we cannot
recall., We think we would be safe to
put down the amount of money ex
pended in improvements for the last
year at between sixty and sevent-flve
thousand dollars.
pWe hope to see tha good work of im
proving the old buildings go on during
the present year. Already we note ex
tensive repairs being made on the
Roberts building on the Academy Green
square, now owned by Mr. Geo. B
Guion, also Mr. Jas. A. Bryan is adding
repairs to his dwelling on Middle Btreet

Judge was detained to hear an applica-
tion for a habeas corpus, and as the law
imposes a heavy tine for a refusal to
hear such, cases,1 it will be seen at
once that his failure to reach hereon
time was , unavoidable and in no
way his fault. . The reputation
of Judge Shipp for. faithful and con
scientious discharge of duty is too well
established to admit of any suspicion of
dereliction on his part, and no one will
regret any inconvenience that may have
occurred more than himself. '

' John S. Long, Esq., at the request of
the Trustees of the Graded School, has
consented to. deliver his lecture on
"Nineteenth Century Perils," the pro
ceeds to be applied to the improvement
of the bchool grounds. 1
The lecture has been delivered, with
earnest success, in Washington, for the
benefit of St. Peter's Church; before the
Graded' School, at Kinston; and the
Commencement of King's Mountain
High School. '-' . ; .- ; -
r Mr. Long is a writer and speaker of
rare ability ; choice and elegant in dic
tion, elfoctive and eloquent in delivery,
It is to'be hoped that the brilliant repu
tation of the Lecturer, coupled with his
benevolent design, will attract a large
ind appreciative audience, so that the
School grounds may be made attractive
and inspiring to the teachers and pupils,
as well as ornamental to the city.
Tho time and place of the lecture will
be announced in due time, when all ar
rangements are perfected.

An old gentleman not many miles
from here was walking down the streets
of the town in which he lived, one
morning, and chanced to meet his son,
when to the young man's surprise the
old gentleman grasped him warmly by
the hand and inquired how he was and
when did he expect his father home
Another was a man sitting in a boat
opening oysters, which he was eating
raw, who put the shell in his mouth,
held the oyster in his hand, and threw
bis knife overboard.
Neither of these, however, were much
ahead of the man who was hurrying to
the train and was taken with the idea
I that he had left his watch at home, and
I pulled it out of his pocket to see if he
had time to go back for it.

the Indianapolis news:
Many anecdotes have been told of the
absent-mindedness of Congressmen. I
saw a funny instance of it the other day
in the House. They were calling the
roll and came to the name of York, of
North Carolina. He was very busy
writing, when the call was finished
Mr. York rose and stated that he would
like to vote and that he did not hear his
name called. -
"The gentleman's name was called,"
promptly replied the Speaker, "and he
voted in the affirmative."
The old gentleman from North Caro
lina looked a little foolish, but finally
joined in the laughter at his expense.

'Cancers Conquered.
The Swift Specifio Company have the
most indubitable evidence as to the
cure of Cancer by their famous medi
cine, S. S. S. Among others, John S.
Morrow, an old and highly esteemed
citizen of Florence, Ala., makes the fol-
lowing statement as to the merits of I
this remedy.
"1 have been sufferinsr with a Cancer
in my right ear, for about three years.
I tried various remedies and was treat
ed with Iodide of Potash, which nro-
duced rheumatism. My feet and lees
were rreatlv swollen, so that T could
greatly swollen, so
not walk. About one year ago I was
induced to try Swift's Specifio, which
B0n removed the trouble in my limbs,
and my rheumatism is now entirely
gone and my Cancer is steadily improv
ing, being better now than at any time
within two years. This medicine has
done, me more good than anything else
l nave taken, and 1 reel that 1 am on
the road of a speedy cure. Undoubted
ly Swift's Specifio is the best blood pu-
nner in tne world."
John S. Morrow,
Florence, Ala., Sept. 22, 84.
I have had a cancer on my face for
many years. I have tried a great many
remedies, but without relief. I almost
gave up hope of ever being cured. Dr.
nardman, my son.recommended Swift's
Specific, which I have taken with great
results. My face is almost well, and it
is impossible for me to express mv
thanks in words for what this medicine
has done for me.
