Ward Politics.
A Communication iu this isBuo caiU
on the Democrats of the 1st Ward, to
rally to the nominee. Of course, this
is the only plan to preserve party organ
ization. It is to be regretted that many
of our best citizens take no part in the
primary , meetings of their wards
Here is the place and the time to dis
cuss the fitness of a man's candidacy
and get out a proper man. We do not
mean to get out a proper man to elect
certain other parties to certain other
positions, but nominate a man who is
fit to bo Councilman , and when the
nomination is made, unless there was
some unfairness used -in making ic,
Democrats, and especially those who
participated in the nomination, should
use all their efforts to elect the nominee
We say this simply in tho interest of
parly organization, without expressing
any preference for either of the candi
dates in the lBt Ward.
Tho District C6urt.
Court convened yesterday morning
when Joel Whitfield, convicted for re
tailing liquor without license, A. L,
W iggins, convicted for retailing liquor
without license, in three cases, and
Jones "H. Young for embezzeling poet
office funds, were brought in for judg
ment of the court. Whitfield was sen-
tended to six month's imprisonment in
the jail at Wilson and fined $1,000
Wiggins was sentenced to four month
imprisonment and fined 5f2"0. In the
case of Young, counsel for the defend
ant, Moore & Clarke, had objected to
the testimony offered by the Govern
ment, being a certified Btatement of the
sixth, auditor of the postofficp depart
ment.1 showing a balance due or over
12,000 by the defendant, as contraven
ing the Bill of Rights which guarantee!
to every man accused of a crime the
right to confront his accusers. H
Honor set asido the verdict and re
quired the defendant to givobond in the
sum of $500 for his appearance at the
next term of the court.
Considerable business has been dis
posed of during the term and we take
pleasure in stating that the oiucers of
this court are uniformly courteous, and
conduct the business of the court with
perfect fairness towards defendants and
at the same time fully discharge their
uties totha Government.

Voters of the First Ward.
Eutor Journal: To-morrow is the
day for the election of oouncilmen in
the city of New Berne, and as is well
known there has been considerable
wranelinir In the First Ward. Whiln I
do not believe it will amount to much,
yet I wish to impress upon the voters
the importance of their coming out and
casting their ballots for the one whom
they have nominated at a publicly
called convention. Through the col
umns of the Journal Mr. R. P. Williams
has announced himself an Independent
candidate in this ward. Can a Demo
crat vote for Mr. Williams, and could
be considered Democratic' I think
not. If you feel any interest in the
Democratic party, then it is your duty
to keep it in a shape worthy of success,
You cannot afford to do otherwise.
Our nominating convention was open
to every Democratic-voter in the First
Ward; and now think of the responsi-
bility resting upon the member to be
elected from that ward in organizing
the board of councilmen, and ask your
selves the question, can Democrats af
ford to countenance disorganized
Voter.
A FEW ITEMS FROM FLORIDA.
Your Florida correspondent has not
written for you in the past several
weeks, and you will pleaso excuse his
laziness, as lie does not mean any harm
by it.
Had to say, but true, tho oranges are
about gone
Ocala has at last got a fire engine, and
it would amuse the old New Bernians
to see how the thing is petted. I sup
pose it will be somewhat like the first
baby quite a favorite in the family.
The contractors and builders tell me
that their engagements ahead will keep
them employed all the- year. The ring
of the saw and hammer is heard on
every side
Mr. James Harris, the orange king of
Florida, is doing a large part of the
building in this place. Col. L. J. Parr,
contractor and builder, has charge of
his building operations here. One no
ticeable feature about the new build
incs now in prosess of construction, is
that they are of the very best brick,
Four years ago Ocala had a population
of eleven hundred: now the population
approaches twenty-five hundred more
than double what ip was then. (Jcala
is surrounded by a good country a
large proportion of the orange crop of
Honda is raised in Marion county,
Marion county also ships large quan
tities of vegetables.
The sun is beginning to get pretty
hot here now, and I think by June this
"Tar Heel" would love to repose in the
shade somewhere on the eastern coast
of North Carolina.
Did you ever realize how delightful
it is to have myriads of gnats, buzzing
about your nose, eyes, mouth, ears,
dabbing in vour coffee, covering all the
vintnals. and vmi fornnd tn nnfc nnmn
gnats or not eat at all? Did you ever
nnk at the victuals, thinkinor thn hi unit
pepper on it was alive, and learn that
it was not pepper but gnats? Did you
ever light your pipe or cigar and sit
down to drive away the gnats, and to
your sorrow, find that the gnats are
more fond of smoke than you? Did you
ever go in your room, eo to bed, wrap
up head and- ears, and learn that before
you went to bed, that several thousand
gnats had gone to bed before you did
and were restless and sleepless waiting
impatiently for you to retire f Did you
ever have thousands of troublesome
gnats for your daily companions on all
occasions and everywhere at every kibd
of business, calm or windy under all
circumstances? If not, then you have
denied yourself one of, the spring
luxuries of Florida; and some people
tell me that gnat time has not fairly be
gun yet; that these few millions are
only tne advanced line 01 skirmishers,
Dade county, in the Southern part of
Florida, has only seventy-five voters in
it, and these are solid Democratic. . No
wonder that we elected a Democratic
President.
Did you ever see what is called a
'gopher'Vin Florida? The gopher is
very much like our old loggerhead tur-
tie,- except his front feet are a great
.laol hrAooi- iniiHii-4 m int : Tnmn
in Hernando county and further South,
gophers are very highly esteemed for
food by some persons, and are very
numerous. In sorqe places they are so
numerous and highly esteemed that, I
am told, they are taken in trade the
same as money, and the smaller gophers
given for change. .
Down on Indian river, it is said that
the mosquitoes are much worse than
the gnats are here. You have perhaps
seen or heard the song the negroc s sing
in reference to them:
'Sketers fly high; sketers fly low;
Get my kand on sketers baek bone,
Sketer won't fly no more. "
The native Floridians, or rather the
"Crackers," as they are called, do not
seem to mind the mosquitoes. Some
time ago, down on Indian river, a Yan
kee asked a "Cracker" "How do you
sit there nsning witn an those mo
anuitnao Vlitf no vftn p" ktTha uf!rnntrai"
answered, "They don't trouble me; I
can strip naked to my waist and let
them - bite without flinching," The
Yankee bet him fifty . dollars that he
could not. The "Cracker" bared his
back and threw himself across a log
with hiB sun-baked bide-a prey to hun-
dreds of mosquitoes. When the Yankee
saw that the old fellow did not flinch,
and be was likely to loose his money,
he stepped up behind the old man and,
taking out his sun-glass, drew a fine
bead on tbe old fellow. , When his hide
began to - fry and crackle under the
elass, the "Cracker"? beean to flinch
and move, the Yankee said, "Oh, but
stop; you are not to flinchl" Well, I
never mind mosquitoes, , but I wish you
would brush off that yaller jacket. '1
Samuel Plirosoll, a member of Parlia
ment, London, England, and author of
the t'Pllmsoll Shipping BUI," has pur
chased eleven hundred acres of pine
and hammock lands in Marion county.
His purpose is to settle a colony of
thrifty English gardeners. There are
""y sewers nere from almost every
P tbe habitable globe. . How 1
hav9 ' ,auKhed in seeing: these old fat
uermans pass heregqipg south, wnen 1 or
wouia tninic wnat a pleasant change the
mosquitoes wai nave from tile hard,
uijr nunutt rucKer - hi ums lac, meex-i

The social features of manv barts of
x loriaa are vastly different from our
old settled communities in North Caro
lina. People from a dozen different
States, perhaps, will settle in the same
neighborhood, and each, family bring
. 1 peculiar, sooiai leaturesot
H,B,r iwraernomes; ana 11 is soon mat
they learn that "iHy they hold little
or nothing in common, and that those
wuu uvu dmi iu you are uuii luur
vou
neighbors. .But one thing, is. funny to
watch and that is '. how soon these
Yankees become disgusted with the
Begroes. When a Yankee hires a man,
he is pretty sure to get work out of him;
but when he strikes "cufue' , he runs on
a stump. The Yankees who have come
down here say that negro labor is the
poorest labor they have ' ever seen.
Negro labor in this section is not even
as good as the average negro labor
of N.C.
I will try to write more sense and
less foolishness, unless the correspon
dent from Swansboro wants me to beat
him on an Alligator storv, and then I
will try my hand. I must though, in
my next, yive you a little reminiscense
of the late war on the St. John's River.
