Diversifying Crops.
0u Id friend, Cad .Koonce, of Ons
low county, while in to see us last week
stated that the people around Richlands
were inclined to diversify their crops in
view of the extremely low prioe of cot
ton But, '-What shall we raise for a
money crop?" is the all-absorbing ques
tion. Some speak of trying tobacco,
.others of rice. The first will be an ex.
periment, and will cost considerable in
Dreoarins for curing and marketing.
The second, unless grown on low lands
with facilities for flooding, is rather a
-riskr cron as It cannot stand drouth, . '
If an experiment is to be tried, why
not' try something new? We call
"attention ' to a communication in this
issue from Col. Benj. S. Pardee, who
it attending - the -Exposition at
JTewsDrleans and speaks of matters that
may be of considerable interest to all
Eastern Carolina.' When Col. . Pardee
was in this section we believe he was
' of the opinion that onr lands were well
adapted to the growth of hops. It is
evident that our farmers cannot grow
cotton extensively at the present prices.
The cotton belt proper Can grow it much
chef per than North Carolina farmers,
and as Texas is annually increasing her
acreage, it must necessarily keep the
price down and drive the Northern bor
ders of the cotton-producing belt into
some other vocation. We commend,
therefore, the subject matter, of Col.
- rardoe's letter to the farmers of Eastern
Carolina.

Capt. John A. Richardson has just re
turned from a visit to Washington City,
and he informs us that Congressmen
Skinner and O'Hara are doing their
level best to secure an appropriation for
a Government building in this city.
Many towns of much smaller impor
tance, and where less Oovernment busi
ness is transacted have had their bun
dredsof thousands appropriated while
New Berne has been overlooked. It
seems to us that our member, O'Hara,
ought to be able to command the aid of
his Republican friends in the House on
this measure, and surely no Democratic
member from North Carolina can afford
to slight the "black district." In the
Senate Ransom and Vanoe both are
bouud to help us. It strikes us that
O'Hara has the key to the situation if he
will only use it aright.
Capt. Richardson appeared before the
sub-committee on public buildings and
briefly and pointedly told them of the
necessities of a building in New Berne,
and he has strong hopes that the com
mittee will report favorably on a bill
appropriating sixty or seventy-five
thousand dollars. He speaks in high
terms of the manner in which he was
received by our members of Congress,
especially Messrs. Skinner and O'Hara,
and says lhat Washington is right
where it was when he received his ap
pointment, and that money melts like
snow while one is there.

Entertainment at the Uraded School.
One of the most pleasant entertain
ments which has taken place in New
born tor so tie time past was the one at
the Graded School building Frjday eve
ning. lor several days a committee consist
ing of Mrs. E. K. Bryan, Mrs.W. G. Brin-
son, Mrs. E. H. Meadows, Mrs. L. H.
Cutler, Mrs. J. A. Meadows, Mrs. J.
Schwerin, (with the assistance of a
number of the young ladies connected
with the school) had been preparing for
it. and certainly their efforts were
crowned with success. The sliding
doors of the upper rooms were thrown
open and the entire upper floor of the
building was virtually tnrown into one
large room which furnished ample
room for the large crowd which had as
sembled. '
For a half an hour the audience were
entertained with some very amusing
exhibitions of Phantom Shadows. " -
This over, the selling of the substan
tial and delioacies commenced.
There was an abundant supply of the
finest oysters, the nicest salads, ice
cream, plain and lanoy oases, etc..
which were served by the young ladies
who had been selected for that purpose.
Usually on such occasions extravagant
prices are charged which often deters
many from attending, but on this occa
sion directly the reverse was the case.
Evervthimr was prepared in the nicest
style and the prices charged were really
less than the articles were wortn.
For instance, a dish of oysters or salad
and a onn of coffee for 15 eta.: a saucer
of ioe cream for 10 cts., and a plate of
cake for 10 cts.
Mrs. E. B. Roberts presided at the
table where the substantiate were sold,
and Miss Georgia Street and Miss Carrie
Hancock bad charge of the ice cream.
Mrs. L. H. Cutler, assisted by a num
ber of the ohildren, were very active in
selling tickets for a handsome silver
card receiver, which was to be awarded
to the lady who received tne largest
number of votes. ; In counting the bal
lots it fell to Miss Myra Burrus. and to
no one could it have fallen with more
propriety. ' ' -
Miss Lata Roberts and Miss Laura
Hughes bad charge of the fish pond,
and here eyery one seemed to get a
prize fully worth the money paid for the
privilege or nsning. ;
MiRg Maud Moore and Miss Etta Nunn
were eneaeed in selling handsome
boquets. :'
It was certainly a pleasant entertain
ment; and to the young ladies, Misses
Burrus, Jones, Nunn, Meadows, Bryan;
Eaton, Berry and Walker, who so grace
fully acted as waiters, those present are
certainly under obligations.

Congressional Work.
Senate. Feb. 18. Among the pe
titions presented to the Senate and ap
propriately referred was one by Mr.
Hoar, from "Citizens of the United
States" citizens whose names, Mr.
Hoar said, seemed to indicate that they
were of foreign birth, praying for the
submission by Congress to the several
States of a proposed constitutional
amendment abolishing the Presidency.
The Educational bill was then taken
up and its consideration proceeded with.
Mr, Jriumo ottered an amendment
providing that as to the territories, not
the Secretary of the Interior, but the
legislatures of the several territories
shall have administration of the money.
Agreed to.
Mr Ingalls said the North, Northwest
and West did not want this bill. On
the contrary, they spurned it. The
people of Kansas indignantly spurned
the assumption that they desired a do-
natiou from the national treasury to
sustain their common schools. Mr.
Ingalls waa "fatigued" with the pre
sumption he had heard that Northern
and Western people wanted this money.
"Let us drop disguises and come down
to common sense. Do not insult the
people of the Northern and Western
States by declaring that they want any
portion of this donation bill." The
bill, Mr. Ingalls said, "was essentially
dishonest; and States that would take
money under it were actuated precisely
the same spirit that would piok a pocket
or rob a grave yard." Laughter. "It
was an act oi grand larceny on the
treasury; When the States of the South
asked for this money on the basis of the
whole number of its illiterates above
ten years old, they knew, and the whole
country knew, that they were obtaining
money under false pretences. ' '
Mr. Maxey emphatically denied that
Texas asked for the bill.
Mr. Morgan read a telegram from the
Governor of Alabama (Gov. O'Neill),
saying he saw no constitutional author
ity for the bill, and endorsing nis l Mor
gan's) position on it.
Mr. KiddieDerger saja some states
might not need the money. "On behalf
of as good people as those of Kansas or
Texas," continued Mr. Riddleberger,
I am not ashamed to say that we do
want it. We think it is due to us. 1
am glad the slave is free; but I ask the
gentlemen who considered it their duty
under the higher law to free him.
whether it is not their duty to come to
the rescue of an impoverished people,
who accent the situation and who ask
that the f reedmen may be educated?"
Applause in the galleries, whicn was
suppressed by the Chair..
Mr. Coke addressed tne senate in op
position to the bill. He entered an
earnest protest against its passage, de
claring; lv - W U0 buo uiwi im uiuiuuv
measure introduced into either house of
Congress since . the war. Mr. Coke
quoted from the writings of Jefferson,
Madison and other early authorities on
the constitution to'maintain his position,
and ars-ned at some length that the pas
sage of the pending bill would make
Congress a body of unlimited and des
potic power, and would be subversive
of all the rights of the States. It would
result; he said, in stirring up endless
strife between the North and south,
A number of amendments having
been submitted in order that they may
be m-inted. Mr. Evarta took the floor,
He remarked that he was heartily in
favor of the bill, but would not speak
on it it the Senate desired to come to a
vote. . ' . '- '. - .
Mr. Blair said that if Mr. Evarta was
going to make a speech somebody would
be sure to move an adjournment. This
remark was greeted with load laughter,
in which Mr. Evarts himself heartily
joined, and the Senate went at once into
executive cession. After a few minutes
the Senate at 5:40 p.m. adjourned till
tomorrow.
House The Speaker announced the,
appointment of Mr. Findlay, of Mary
land, as a member of the committee on
banking and currency, to fill the va
cancy occasioned by the resignation of
Mr. Curtin.
. In the morning hour the House re
sumed consideration of the bill forfeit
ing the Atlantic & Pacific Railroad land
grant.
The bill was discussed, witnout any
result being reached, until the expira
tion of the. morning hour; and then the
House went into committee of the
whole on the Fitz John Porter bill.
Mr. Phelps, of N. J., said he had be
lieved for twenty years that Porter was
a traitor and deserved to be hanged.
Thas was the popular opinion of the
loyal North, and his heart had been with
it. he bad changed his opinion ana ne-
lieved that Porter was an honest man
and loyal soldier, when, as his repre
sentative, he bad been obliged to ex
amine the evidence and learn the facts.
In conclusion, he said: It is an old
story ;it is a wearisome one to us; but to
him, it is the story oi a lite, uei us to
day as courageous friends of justice de
termine that we will make what repara
tion we can and that we will end now
at.d forever, so fa'- as this House is con
cerned, the strangest and saddest story
in American history."
Mr. Warner, of O., expressed bis be
lief that Fitz'John Porter had done his
whole duty at the battle or tsuii ttun,
but he also believed that if the original
court martial could assemble again and
have additional evidence before it, it
wonld be oompelled to reverse the ver
dict. For this reason he would vote for
the bill.
Mr. Bragg, of Wis., closed the debate.
He stood here, he said, representing the
Fifteenth Army Corps, .wearing on his
breast the badge of the old army of the
Potomac that loved McClellan and Por
ter well: that fought the battles of their
country despite Congressional interfer
ence.
The committe then rose and reported
the bill to the House. Two attempts to
recommit the bill with instructions
failed, by a vote of 113 to 173. Mr.
Bragg, of Wisconsin, who had demand
ed the previous question, withdrew the
demand and again took the floor. He
sharply criticised the personnel of the
court which convicted Porter, and the
one-sided course in the trial, and ac
cused McDowell of falsification in rep
resenting the report of Stonewall Jack
son of the battle of August 30th to apply
to Porter's movement of the 29th. Mr.
Bragg said, "the gentleman from Michi
gan (Cutcheon) had taken the report of
the second battle of Bull Run and read
the number of killed and wounded on
the 29th of August, for the purpose of
showing that there bad been a general
battle. If the gentleman had been dis
posed to be ingenuous he would have
stated that the heading of these reports
was casualties between August loh and
September 2nd."
Mr. Cutcheon declared tnat lie naa so
stated in his speech.
Mr. Bragg You took a table or agures
from the heading that covered almost
the month, and you have published it in
your speech as evidence of losses on
August 29. but your Republican con
stituents, who do not read anything but
vour speech in a Republican newspaper
will think that a historical evidence oi
the war.
Mr. Cutcheon declared that the head
ing of the table showed precisely what
it was.
Mr. Bragg declined to yield, and Mr,
Cutcheon asserted his right to reply, as
he had been misauoted.
Mr. Bragg (advancing to the par oi
the House) I state what vou said. I
state what the figures are.
Now." exclaimed Mr. Cutcheon,
also advancing into the space in front
of the Speaker's desk, "you are trying
to ram a falsehood down the throat of
the House." Applause on the Repub
lican side.
"1 draw my own inferences as to your
purpose," cried Mr. Bragg, and, defiant
ly, "1 will repeat them, it you desire
ADDlause on tne Democratic side .
At this time tbere was a good aeai oi
confusion and excitement in the House.
and it was with dificulty that the voice of
either gentleman could be heard, but as
the Speaker rapped the House to order,
and Stated to Mr. Cutcheon that he must
not! interrupt Mr. Bragg without per
mission, the former indignantly ex
claimed, ''then the gentleman must not
falsify the facts."
Mr. Bragg s retort was, i am giaa i
- - . . 1 V
have driven that Radical from under
Stanton's peticoats so that he has come
to the front."' Mr. Bragg continuea in
this vein, declining to yield to inter
ruptions, his manner being at times
that of personal defianoe towards oppo
nents of the bill.
A vote was finally reached and the
bill passed yeas 171, nays 113.

Henderson, of the LaCroese national

ver dollar that is pronounced by all
bank people in this city absolutely the
most dangerous ever seen. It is the
standard silver dollar of 1881. The out
side is silver, and the die in eyery sub
stantial particular as clear as the origi

of detection is by the weight,
it being exactly 47 grains short of the
