In Mr. J, V.WHliams' letter yesterday

The gross receipts from the Bon-Bon
party at Stanly Hall on Wednesday and
Thursday nights, under the auspices of
the M. E. Church Working Society
amounted to about $200. It was a most
pleasant affair, and we are glad to know
that the receipts were highly satisfac
tory'. Moore & Brady are making land rap
idly at their canning establishment at
Union Point. The south side and east
ern end of the building is now protected
from the waves by the huge piles of
shell that have been dumped. Such
manufacturing industries as this build
up the trade of a town and gives em
ployment to the needy. We need more
of them.
In response to an appeal from a mem
ber of "The Historical Debating Socie
ty," a colored organization in this city,
we give space in today's issue for him to
make a correction which appears else
where. The Society is discussing ques
tions of vast importance; the next thing
to discuss is, "Resolved, That a dieh
cloth is more ise to a house than a
wife.'f The particulars of the Carroll
ton trad gedy will also be explained at
that meeting.
Personal.
Charles R. Thomas, jr., of Beaufort,
spent a few days in the city last week.
He is prominently spoken of as the next
Democratic candidate for the Senate or
House of Representatives from Carteret.
He would make a very worthy repre
sentative in either branch of the General
. .Assembly ,and we hope to Bee him nomi
nated. The Besult of Persistent Work.
We are informed that two Russian
peddlers have canvassed the counties of
Jc nes and Onslow and within a very
short time collected a thousand dollars
worth of furs at Polloksville. How
many young men in New Berne who are
waiting for a job had any idea there was
a hundred dollars worth of furs in these
wo counties? Yet these two industrious
peddlers get out and collect a thousand
dollars worth and no doubt make a
handsome profit. .
Th. State Horticultural Society.
We have received the report of the
North Carolina State Horticultural So
ciety for the year 1885." It contains the
'discussions of . the fruit growers at a
meeting held at Raleigh, December 1st
18 35 .which meeting was for the purpose
of making a list of fruits suitable for
cultivation in the State. " j t,;
- In 'discussing grapes we' notice the
9 suppernong is not mentioned. Perhaps
If was beoause this gr ape is so well
known in North Carolina that it was
considered a waste of time to discuss it,
or it may be that our old friend, Capt. S.
W. Noble, of Wilmington, was not pres
ent to tell them of the good qualities of
this king of grapes in the East, '.
This Society, which is the successor to
the Fruit Grower's Aassociation is capa.
ble of doing,and is doing, a vast amount
.of good for fruit growing in tne state,
We believe more Kood could be accom
plished, however, if there was an East
ern organization, combining both fruit
- and truck. We" have thrown out this
animrestion before and it has been en'
dorsed by several prominent fruit and
- truck growers but we have yet to find
the man to inaugurate it, ;'; .' '

One of Baltimore's foremost commis

chase (of Chipehas Bros.,) writes: A
few days since I sprained my left foot,
' the pain was so severe that I could hard 1 y
walk at all. I saw your Salvation Oil
advertised, so determined to give it a
fair trial. A few applications relieved
me entirely and my foot is now a3 strong
as ever. - For the' relief and cure of

preparation of great merit.

It is thought there is a case of leprosy
in Yadkin county, this State.
The estimated amount of life insur
ance in the United States is $3,000,000,
000. At a political gathering in Laredo,
Texas, a riot occurred in which five per
sons were killed and a number wound
ed. Four of the killed were Mexicans.
Mail advices from Hong Kong report
that a dangerous anti-foreign .feeling
has been created at Caoton by the news
of the anti-Chinese persecutions in the
United States.
In the April 5th issue of the Southern
World," a handsomely printed paper
published at Jacksonville, Florida, is a
beautiful illustration of the mountain
scenery in the western part of this
State.
Gymnasiums are great nuisances for
boys and men who have any life in them
for work and exercise. Very often per
manent injury is sustained by boys in
their spine and abdomen. The fact is,
gymnasiums are dangerous to the bodies
and limbs of boys. Men and boys who
want or need exercise can very easily
get it by sawing or cutting wood, hoe
ing the garden or ploughing the fields.
No man or boy who is not too lazy to
work has any use for "dumb bells,"
"weights" and "pulleys." Cliarlotte
Democrat.'" Now that editor has no
privilege to a gymnasium, or he has for
gotten when be was a boy. There is a
gymnasium in New Berne in connection
with the Y. M. C. A. of this city, and so
far, it has been a success. Wo have
seen manv young men with pale
faces and odorless cheeks, with droop
ed shoulders, and limbs that are spare for
want of development, with sunken chests
breeding consumption; and, instead of
a nuisance, we deem the gymnasium a
groat blessing. If all young men and
boys were engaged in labors that would
furnish proper physical exercise, then
there would be but Utile need for the
gymnasium. The work of the majority
of young men in towns and cities does
not furnish this, and if the exercise to
be gotten only by sawing wood, hoeing
in gardens and the like at their spare
time, is relied on, it will be left undone
As for accidents, every vocation of life
has its risk. Of course injuries have
been received in gymnasiums, a boy
with ambition has the spirit in him to
excell, and will at times, overstrain
himself, but would he not be guilty of
the same offense in a contest it the buck
saw or wielding the axe Boys want'
some place to enjoy their leisure mo
ments, the gymnasium has been ad
vanced for this purpose, and is it not bet'
ter than many other places ' where they
would-be otherwise attracted? We
want less round shoulders, and more
erect forms with full chest that add so
much to the appearance pf persons.

In' 1860 the year I moved to this
county there was not a bale of cotton
ginned in the bounds or ramaco; tnis
year, in this place alone. C. H. Fowler
has had baled 400 bags at his gin and
has on hand enough to make 20 bales
not ginned, besides what F. F. Cherry
has baled at his gin. Cherry has one of
the Moore county grist mills lately put
up from which he supplies his custom
ers with grist to suit the most fastidious,
It is a complete mill.

Ma. Editor: Please correct the state
ment that appeared in the People's Ad
vocate in its last issue. In the Histori
cal Literary Debating Society, on Tues-
dav evening the subject for debate was
"Kesolved, mat slavery naa a one more
injury to humanity than intemperance. "
The subiect was argued by Messrs. J.
W. Telfair and w. a. Button in tne
affirmative and I. H. Swith and I. Har
ris in the negative. The points made
in the affirmative were 1. in tne nega
tive 9. The Advocalt had it backward
It was a wise one that said: "Every
man is occasionally what he onght to be
rjernetuallv." That must be when ha is
honest enough to acknowledge the
merits of Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup, the
I only sure cure for coughs and colds.
