And ws think it poper to add that newspapers should eadeav6r to learn the character of the play be fore commending it to the publio: Edwin Booth is by common ' con nt the greatest living American actor. He is a man of culture and ability- He wrote to tbe New York Christian Union: "I never permit my wife or daughter to attena tbe theatre without previously ascertaining the character of the play.'' uere is a lesson for all parents. A Good Subscriber W. H. West, Esq., one of the county commissioners of Lenoir, called in yesterday to pay his subscription to the Journal. By referenoe to our books we found him already paid up to Oc tober. 1889. This is rather an unusual occurrence. We very often find those who think they have paid when in reality they have not. Mr. West be lieves in the doctrioe that the laborer ie worthy of his hire; he knows that it takes earnest, oontinued work to get out a good newspaper, and he wants to be certain that it is paid for. We are always glad to see him, even if he has paid op. for we feel that we are in good company when he is thre. Neatly Said. We copy with pleasure the following notioe of our worthy townsmen from the Wilmington Star: John 0. Long, Esq., of New Berne, has been invited to repeat bia University lecture before Wake Forest College in February. No living North Carolinian surpasses Mr. Long on suoh occasions. In a very remarkable degree he blends the charms of rhetorio with tbe attrac tions of thought. He usee rich em broidery but upon a eolid substratum. He is a thinker, a rhetorician and orator and it eflo ds us pleeeure to eay this for it ia tne trutn. We have talked with some of the boys at the University who heard this lecture and tbey eay it is pronounced tbe beet delivered there in many years. Mr. Long spent moch time in preparing It and he did it for the purpose of benefit ing as far as lies in his power the young students of today, who are to be the men of the future. Hie devotion to the educational interest of his State is high ly commendable. The Onalow Election. We publish in this issue a list of ap pointments for speakers to address the people of Onslow county on the railroad subscription. We are )ad to see suoh interest being manifested. If the people will go out to hear the speakers we are satisfied they will be oonvineed that it is to the interest of the oouaty to vote the subscription nd secure' tbe con struction of a railroad from New Berne to Wilmington and eventually on to Norfolk. The county will not be called ontto issue Its bond unless the road Is to be built, and there is not a partiole of doubt but the construction, of this line of railway will carry more than enough' taxable capital to the county to pay the Interest on the same. - Onslow has been too long wHbout steam naviga tion.

Several of tbe most important committees of the Home organised yesterdav and today, aod some of them expect to be ready to re port business for tbe House on Monday, if the call of oommittees is made. The committee on banking and currency appointed a sub committee, oonsistinK of Lander, of Illinois, Schneider, of West Virginia, Dinslery, of Maine, Weber, of New York, .and chairman Wilkins, to which was referred the bill of the Comptroller of Currenoy for tbe reorganization of the national bank log system.

The following letter was laid before the House Com mitt on Elections today : Hon. C F. Crisp, Chairman CommiM tee on Elections. Dear Bir: I learn from tbe proossdings of your oommittee that an application ha been made by oounsel for the contestant to reopen the oase and allow additional testimony to be taken, aad as I have bad time only to glance hastily at tbe affidavit filed in support Of this request. I beg leave to suggest that it would be proper not to decide the matter Anally until I oaa have reasonable oppportunity to ex amine the paper and if necessary file affidavits. So far a the affidavit oharge or Intimate any improper oon- doct upon my part in reierenoe to toe election, either before or after it was held, Iamteady now to contradict them in the mott positive manner, by my own affidavit, but there are other thing in the papers of whioh J cannot have per sonal knowledge, and which if left un answered, might produoe an enormous impression upon the minds of the com mittee. Please preeent (hi note to the oommittee. I will, of course, be entire ly satisfied with any course tbe oom mittee may choose to take, but it seems to me that under the circumstances 1 ought to have aa opportunity to care fully examine tbe papers and take suoh steps as may be thought proper before the application now pending is disposed of. very respectfully, J.
