Sknatob Vancb has introduced a bill to repeal the' Civil, Service lawv. He. is thoroughly in accord with bis party in Forth Carolina.' Several members of tbe North ' Carolina delegation in tbe House hive introduced billa to abolish the ' internal revenue taxatiou. This is in 'accordance with the oft repeated fecntiiuents of the Democratic party of North Carolina in Convention .is eembled. t 'i The New York World, the papep . ' thjaVt arped on North Carolina bar. Wxigm in hanging bnrglaraw4 be moaning the fact that New Tori; citizens are imprisoned for poverty; That is, if a man gets in debt, in - 'that State and can't pay, he is sent to Ludlow street jail. . r among . the - seven hundred1' and fifty bills Introduced in Congress on Tuesday last was one providing for. the erection of public buildings at Charlotte, Wilmington j New Berne; Asheville and Salem. So New Berne is not left oat in the cold this1 time'. Bat it is an easy thing to introduce a bill; getting it through is the im portant work. '"" ' " ' The Blaih educational bill will ' again pass the Senate unless several 'Senators have changed their views. We presume it will also pass tbe . House this session as the Democrats all over tbe country told the people daring the Presidential canvass that the reason the Democratic; fionft did not pass it was" for want pf time. They have plenty . of time now. " . It seems to be difficult to under; stand exactly how'1 the Hon. Wil. liaM Maxwell Evaets, the talk ing Senator of New York, stands on the silver question since bis talk at the Boston dinner. ' He has a peculiar tact for making ong' sen tences and leaving everybody In diubt. Tho silver men, notwtth4 standing the Senator's doubtful po- sttion, are in high spirit and feel confident that the coinage will go " . . OPEN LKTTEK TO J. HAYIIIS.lSSq. IaVsville, Jones Cq.,"N. C, Dec, 1885. f Mb. J. Havens: In response-jtp your request through K.'F.Toacue, I will undertake to write you some thing of the country you desired we to v write I about, namely, the lower ' portion of Jones and. .the county of Onslow. -I will also give" yon my views how this splendid country can be. improved and made the garden spot of Eastern Caro lina. The White Oak. section of this country is unsurpassed or the fertility of . the soil; marl abounds everywhere, and even our gallberry land, when given a dose of two hun dred bushels of marl per acre, 'will produce 1,000 pounds of seed cot ton, or in corn, from five to .six. barrels per acre, and last al ways. vast Doaies oi tana are in original growth of timber. Mr. Terry, who has recently explored . White Oak river from Swansboro to the Cran berry pond, reports an immense quantity of timber of every variety and of the . best quality found in (he South; this river is navigable to tbe mouth of Black Swamp creek, which has its sonrce in Catfish lake. With but little .cost the river can be made navigable a long way njy and is the natural drainage of the State lands at its bead. The tim ber on Black Swamp is abundant, and the richness of the creek bot tom unsurpassed anywhere. I may say the same of Hunter's creek. Oa the Onslow side of tbe river tbe soii is very fertile, and a number ot beautiful farms are in cultivation and a vast amount of produce can be made. ; But, Mr.: Havens," this river has no outlet, for. navigation; blocked op with a bad bar at its mouth and Goose creek shoals in TBogue sound, the people are sUrv ing for the want of transportation How are we 1 to" get itt I will tell you after awhile. Let me first say something - about the balance of unsiow: ana now . can l uo my.ua tire county justiceT I Jove every inch of its soil and every One of its people, ana l write . turn letter in the hope that it may be of some benefit to Its people. Watered; by White Oak,' river on one side aad New river through' its center, it is apauifj oi supporting a uenso pop ulationtiiand as fertile as any in the State; a large portion with red ClajBubsoil; with marl in abund ance: and 1 believe a bed of phos phate at Stony shoals on White Oak Ytver equal' to any at .Charles ton, S. C. This county can produce any and every , variety of crops and in the greatest abundance. 'Fish and oysters are plentiful,: and the New river oysters are famous.,- Tbe river itself is worth a trip;: to look at; it is more of a lake than a river; at tho, mouth of .Northeast aid Southwest, it is five orBix milps wide and a beautiful sheet of water. The river is navigable for steamers to within, seven or eight: miles pi the village of ltichiands in the up per part of the county,' and can be made navigable with a little con vict labor : to Doctor's bridge two thirds of the year, which . bridge is near the village. The land around Ricblands is noted for its fertility, large and .extensive plantations be ing in cultivation. Mr. Havens. I could talk .about. this county two hours by the ; watch, and not tell one halt :ot woatic is and can De made if developed; it is in its virgin state. What is required, is a way to get to market. , Where is that market, New BerneT How does tho, produce get there nowf Oil, wheels, over iorly or fipy miles of bad roads. On the 1 other side of New river,- fitly br hixty . miles through deep sand to Wilmington; Can jieople live in such a country! Certainly . not. They may'' stay there uot live; they have the soil. The people are clever, industrious; no better DSODla in the world. All TEat is waated is quick-, and cheap (ranspprtation; they must and shall have it. Here is mv plan for tlifl uppef part of Cartere 'the lower part jQncqaiuJ all of Onslow county. Now, , Mr. Havens, follow,, pne alotigs 'patiently as you can; I can talk hat un a poor-hand to write.
