Fir Near Flv Points. The sounding of the fire bell Sunday night at a little after two o'clock called the department out. A big light in the direction of Five Points gave the loca tion. It was found to be houses occu pied by colored people, and the burn ing had made considerable headway, the buildings being so far up town. Two buildings with all their contents, oeionging to bnade towards, col., were burned, he barely escaping with his life. Another building belonging to Frank Young was also burned, and a fourth one, occupied by an old colored woman, was so badly damaged that it had to be pulled down. The cause is attributed to the explc&ion of a lamp. Simmons at Vanceboro. F. M. Simmons addressed s large, in telligent and highly appreciative au dience at Vanoeboro on Saturday. The effects of his efforts were best evidenced by the wrapt attention paid, during this entire discourse, for the space of two hours. He was introduced by that indefatigable and zealoua Democrat, A. Conn, in his usual happy style. After the conclusion of Mr. Simmons' speech, Riohard Clave, Esq., made a few re marks complimentary to Mr. Simmons and asked the full vote of the township in his behalf. O. H. Guion, Esq., be ing called upon, made a short speech of rally, and as chairman of the Demo cratic Executive Committee of the county, called upon the Democrats of the preoinot to resolve themselves into a Democratio club to aid him in palling the full strength or the party vote in the first township. Bis call was flatter ingly responded to and resulted in a complete organisation, with the follow ing offloers: A. Oohn, President; . J. White, 1st Vice-President: Major Ed. Whitford, 2d Vloe-President; Macon Bryan, Esq., Secretary. This club extends a eordlai invitation to the Democrats of the county to ad dress them on each and every Saturday until the 8d of November, when they pledge the largest vote old Craven has yet called forth from the Democrats of the nrst township.

Sher- iu, who is stopping at the Fifth Ave nuo Ilotf I, was asked today whether he desired to reply to the vigorous attack on him by Jefferson Davis in the Balti- jie Sun of this morning. lie was told that The Sun would be pleased to publish any statement that he might care to make relative to the controversy, but the General politely, but firmly, de clined to talk. "I do not care to revive this controversy," he said. "It hi already been thoroughly disouseed. When asked if he would have anything to say later on, he replied that he did not think so. The Davis letter was widely read here, all the principal morning papers printing liberal extracts from the letter, as published in full in The Sun. While local sentiment here is by no means partial to the Southern leader, the general opinion seems to be thst Mr. Day is has made a very con clusive reply to Qen. Sherman's charges. In putting out trees, the pecan is well worthy of consideration, owing to the many advantages it offers. They grow wild in the South and West and yield a nut that is of much value for a wins. Cultivation makes them much more prolific and wonderfully Improves the quality of the fruit, and besides it be ing a very hardy tree and capable of withstanding most any storm that ever visits North Carolina, it is a tree of handsome form and beautiful foliage. The pecan tree lives to a great age and continues long in bearing. It is well adapted to almost any kind of soil, do. ing well even on rocky hills and waste land. There is no nut or fruit tree more valuable and requiring so little attention. Every farmer, in our opin ion, should hsvs his nut orchard, and cultivate especially the pecan for home use or sale. The nuts always find ready sale at fancy prices. In planting the trees, the only object is to obtain good fresh nuts, and of a good early variety, of large size, from which to grow the trees. If it is preferred to set out the plants, get healthy trees of a good variety one to two years old. Baeklea'a Aral B&lv.

It to thus that tha disease la often dif fused from house to house and kept alive where it ought to be diligently extirpated. Every person having it ought to be isolated, and every house In which it is ought to be quarantined and a colored flag placed in a conspicuous position upon the dwelling to mark ths location of the enemy.

Candidates are even mora numerous than in Cra ven. For clerk of superior court of Burke county there are four candidates, three Independents and ona Democratio. ins lMmoorano candidate will be ever whelmingly elected. In almost; every county adjoining this there is an Inde pendent movement, but they all amount to nothing ss tin Independents are but Mott Republicans seising on to the In dependent movement in hopes of beat mg toe straigns Democratic candidates. Some of the counties have made their Democratio nominations by primary lection, something unknown hereto fore among them. This expedient is highly favored. In' fact, take it all in all, the Democrats are better united, more sanguine, and their chances are far superior than has been since the war, notwithstanding the disgruntled. Independent and Republican elements. In this Senatorial district, the 36th. Dr. John Tull, a New Berne boy, is one or tne candidates. JJr. Tull was born in New Berne, May 1st, 1849, and is therefore 87 years of see. He left New Berne in 1863 for school at Princeton, N. J. In June, 1864, his father, the late Dr. J. Graham Tull, and family moved to Philadelphia where they have since lived and where Dr. John Tull studied pharmacy and graduated at the Phila delphia College of Pharmacy. lie moved back to North Carolina in 1879 and settled here in Morganton, where be has won the confidence of the people ss an able and competent pharmacist and their respect' and admiration as a gentleman of irreproachable character and conduct. Dr. Tull 's ability, ener gy and influence was at once recognized by his near friends, as he was three times successfully elected Mayor of Morganton, giving such entire satisfac lion inat ne was earnestly solicited by a number of our prominent citizens to be come a candidate for a fourth term He was at one time elected a member of the board of county commissioners, served for a short time when for rea sons satisfactory to himself, found it necessary to resign, against the wishes of his numerous friends in the county- He has been and is still an acting mag istrate, and h&B been more than once complimented for his wise and judi cious rulings by different judges of the Superior court. The Doctor is an intelligent gentle man, with broad and liberal viwws, pleasant and affable manners, making friends resdily and withal a thorough Democrat and New Bernian. As to Dr. Tull 's election there is not even the shadow of a doubt and in the Senate he will always be on the outlook for old Crsven's interest. If Mr. Clark is elected, he and tha Doctor will see that our good old county is no looser slighted. I am sure the people of New Berne will be oroud to hear of the ad vancement and success of one of her sons and I assure them that in this in stance they may well be proud and thst while In the State Senate they can unhesitatingly rely upon Dr. John Tull.
