On last Tuesday the citizens gave a concert to raise money to buy an organ for the school. We understand that they will repeat it soon. This is a commendable step. Every school should be taught music, and musio cannot be properly taught without. We hope the colored people will take an interest in their school's efforts to buy an organ. MVe are glad to know that the theatre was well patronized last week by the friends of education. A good organ can be bought very cheap now. A Case la Point. Yesterday the. Sheriff left with Ran dall Nelson, who was committed to jail sometime since upon the charge of burglary, for Warrenton, where he is to appear before Judgo Graves on a writ of habeas corpus. Randall was accompanied by his attorney, O. H. Guion, Esq., and in order to reach War renton they must . travel at least one hundred and seventy miles. This is one of the advantages of a "shoo string" dis tricts, or the result of laying off a dis trict without regard to the contiguity of counties composing the district, . Wise Benevolence. Yesterday an old colored man was carrying a lot of split-wooden scrubbing brooms through our streets, for sale. A young gentleman of our city called him to him, and, enquiring the price, bought one. Those standing by inquired why he made the purchase, well knowing that he had no need for the article. He said: "There is a great deal of distress among us, and it is the duty of all who are able to relieve the worthy poor-- those who are trying to help themselves I bought the broom to help the old man, wad the quarter of a dollar I gave him will do him more good than if I had bestowed it in alms. I have at my rooms a lot of mats and light-wood which I have from time to time bought in the same way. This does not destroy the self-respect of the poor. Do you re member the incident of the impotent man at the gate of the Temple, who be sought an alms of St. Peter? Ho looked on him and said: 'Gold and silver have I none, but, in the name of the Lord Jesus, take up thy bed and walk;' and he arose and went forth leaping and walking. If St. Peter bad given him an alms, he would have remained, to the end of his days, a beggar. But he put him in a condition to make his living My motto is 'Help the poor to help them selves.' " , A Suggestion. Editor Journal: The A. & N. C. Railroad being owned by the State and the citizens of Lenoir and Craven coun tics, and also being in a good financial condition, would it not be a move in the right direction if they would lease to the foreign corporation known as the Wilmington and Weldon Railroad, and run it in the interests of the people of the State? IS. A. & S. C. RAILROAD.. Fatul Proposition of Lease to W. b W , Railroad. - New Berne, March 2, 1885. Editor Journal: The alleged policy of Governor Scales, proposing a lease of the Atlantic and North Carolina railroad to the Wilmington and Weldon com pany, places the Executive in an atti tude of singular hostility to the material interests of this portion of Eastern mto- The portion of North Carolina lying east of the line of the Wilmington and Weldon railroad comprises rather more than one-third the area and population of the State. The railroads penetrating Eastern Carolina are the Atlantic and North Carolina, the Jamesville and Washington, Albemarle and Raleigh, and Norfolk Southern railroads; all told, less than two hundred miles, or about one eighth the total railroad mileage of the State.; About 90 miles of railroad have been built in Eastern Carolina during the past quarter of a century, to which the state has contributed notnmg prao tically During the- same period the railroad mileage of middle and western Carolina has been quadrupled, by State aid, directly and indirectly. From the tributary waters of the Al bemarle to the Cape Fear, the Atlantic is the only piece of railroad serving the people of Eastern Carolina, and upon it depends in large measure their hope of progress and prosperity. Theirs is a section dependent in the largest degree upon the natural advantages of water communication for transportation acu ities, and to these the Atiantio Railroad is a necessary auxiliary, ihese con ditions must .always remain so. - No disposition of the railroad should be made, no alliance permitted, that would disturb the harmoay and unity of pres ent and prospective relations between the Atlantic Road and its terminal water communications at New Berne and Morehead City. - ' ' Except in the construction of the At lantio Road, North Carolina has never aided this third of the State in works of internal improvement, and in that she never paid a dollar out of the rublic Treasury. The policy which governed connecting lines of railroad under State as well as individual control has always been to defeat the grand terminal obioct for which the Atiantio Road was built to Beaufort Harbor, and the Road ha3 been left to strujle along as a local lina without any advantageous connec- tions. It has managed to exist under every variety of vicissitude, and has finally built up permanent water con nections at New Berne and Beaufort Harbor which enables it to live and im prove its physical condition every year. ine Atiantio and North Carolina Kail- road is therefore made a local line with steamer connections for the service of this portion of the State, and now let it remain an independent line for the benefit of Eastern Carolina. A union of the Atiantio with the Cane Fear and Yadkin Valley Railroad would have been good policy, for it would have assured the extension of the At lantic to Fayetteville, and instead of drawing away from, such connection and alliance would have- concentrated traffic at the deep water points of the Atlantic Road New Berne and Beau fort Harbor; and at the same time maintained healthy competition at Goldsboro, which competition has in a lew years changed Goldsboro from a hamlet to a great, thriving city. But only disastrous results can follow a lease of the Atlantic Road to the Wil mington and Weldon. To make it a mere branch line of that Road is to keep off and draw traffic away from the deep water points of the Atiantio Road; to destroy the healthful competition at uoidsboro; and to cripple, if notde stroy our connecting steamer lines at New Berne and Morehead City, which are an absolute ' necessity ' to the people of this portion of the State. Destroy our steam lines out of New Berne and Beaufort harbor by placing the Atlantic road in indifferent, if not hostile hands, and the Governor may as well notify the Secretary of State that this portion of Eastern Caro lina is public land, subiect to entry. As a choioj of evils, a lease to the Richmond and Danville, would be the lesser. But wherein now lies the neces sity of any lease of the road ? Its traffic was never so good, and is steadily in creasing. . ine physical condition of the road is greatly improved, and improv ing, and the management of the road is in sympathy and interest with the com muiiities served by the road. We submit that Governor Scales, a western man, and a stranger to our sec tion of the State, will commit a fatal blunder if he shall precipitate this lease upon Eastern Carolina without having acquainted himself with the interests, situation and necessities of our people. Tide-Water. "Twice in the history of the Road the State has broken up successful and established steamship connections at Morehead City. Kinston Items. Our town clock has a trick of keeping two different times at once a rare ac complishment. Our brass band, the "Level City, "has thawed out, and gave us some excellent music on Friday night. Our fish dealer wants a law passed to prevent fishermen from catching all the baby mullets. They look like branch roaches. The beautiful weather on Saturday makes everybody feel better. Garden seeds are in demand, and the druggists are happy. Several lady visitors, some of them former pupils of Dr. Lewis, visited Kinston College on Friday p. m. and enlivened the scene. Mr. John Hay has purchased a moit eligible lot from Dr. Jobn A. Pollock, near the Methodist church, and is erect ing a building for a residence upon it, Let the commissioners of Lenoir county, at their next meeting, take steps to place seats in the courthouse. The Kinston JVee Press is right in urging tnis matter. The little speck of spring weather on Friday brought out the buggies, and our little city is gay again with vehicles passing in every direotion. Four p. m is the favorite hour for this paBtime tben, the girls are at leisure. Mr. George Hodges, our excellent register of deeds, though devotedly at tached to a life of single blessedness. yet loves to record thegood luck of others. He furnishes us with the fol lowing matrimonial items: . Number of marriage licenses issued in Lenoir county, during February,, fifteen. Of these seven were for -whites, eight for colored persons. ' Of the seven licenses for whites, one was for a town bride groom and six for the country. All the colored grooms live in the country, Hurrah for the country I Mr. Sol. Oettinger, who has just re turned from a visit to the New Orleans Exposition, gives a very interesting ac count of what he saw, ate and heard while there. The Bailey combination baby carriage reached New Orleans too late to be entered for exhibition in the main building; so it is now to be seen in the North Carolina exhibit. This pre vents the merits of the invention from becoming as widely known as it would otheiwise have been. The read from the city (New Orleans) to the Exposition is .five miles long and very muddy Sleeping places are scarce. Eating places are many, and the food various The States, generally, are not well rep resented. " -.- There are over 100,000 office-holders in the United States in the service of the general government. Now, let us figure a little. If Cleveland should commence immediately after his inau guration to make new appointments to take the place of Republicans, and Work ten hours each day for one year of 806 days, be would have to make an ap pointment every two minutes in order to get through' the list by the end of the year.

He has had little rest for the past few nights and is suffering constant pain in his ear and head. Dr. Douglass said he bad a talk with Dr. Sands at Gen. Grant's house and the result of the consultation was that both dreaded that the cancerous growth at the root of the tongue was hardening and steadily growing worse. Microscopical examination made by an expert proved beyond a doubt that it was a case of malignant epithelial growth. "Gen. Grant is a very lick man and I think there is little or do hope that he will recover." Carry down your broken glass and crockery and have them cemented to gether by Dr. Scott.

We feel that we would be wanting in the duty we owe to suffering humanity if we did not sound a note of warning in regard to the use of Mercury and other poisonous minerals in the treat ment of Blood and Skin Diseases. If the reader could see the horrible suffer ing, the awful wrecks of human health and happiness, shown by - our corre spondence with those who have been dosed with these mineral poisons, he would shudder with horror. Arsemo, Mercury, Antimony, and Iodide of Po tassium are some of the remedies most ordinarily used for these diseases, and these are all POISON. Do not take these poisons. They might dry up your dis ease for a few days, and with it you will have Mercurial Kbeumatism, which may bring you years of torture. The Mercury seems to sink into the bones, and the Potash drives the Poison into the system, only to lurk there and at tack the tender organs of the body, as the lungs, the throat, the nasal organs and stomach. Hundreds of people have been made deaf, and a great many blind, by the use of Mercury and Pot ash. Beware of Mercury and Potash Mixtures gotten up in imitation of our specific. A few grains of sugar of lead dropped into a glass of these imitations will cause the poisonous drugs to fall to the bottom, and show the danger of using them. Swift's Specific is entirely vegetable, and is the best tonic for deli cate ladies and children and old people in the world. Treatise on Blood and Skin Diseases mailed free. The Swift Specific Co..
