Some of our oilzsns with members of the Board of Trade met Mr. J. P. Coffin fc representing the Baltimore Manufac turers' Record, at the rooms of the Bjard o; Trade Tuesday night. The objeot of the meeting waa to adopt means of bettor circulating the induce ments offered by our citizens to estab lish manufacturing industries. A com mittee of five was appointed to take the matter in charge and with power to act. Personal. Miss Maria Manly is on a visit to Baltimore and New York. Shipping News. The steamer Vesper of the E. C. D. line sailed yesterday with lumber, truok, Ac. The steamer Ttihoma will arrive this afternoon. Burned Out. The fire at the railroad station burned the clothing and bedding belonging to Mr. Blake who slept in the baggage room. The opinion or the f resident of the road is that the building was set on fire underneath the floor. He gives Blake credit for leaving his own effects and trying to ve the property of the oompany. Railroad Station Burned New One to Be Erected Immediately. The fire alarm was given yesterday morning at about 4 o'clock. The pas senger building and baggage room at the station of the A. & N. U. K. were discovered on fire and the fire depart ment hastened to that point. The fire had gained snob, headway before the engines got to work until the floor (the fire seems to hare originated under the building) and roof were entirely de stroyed and nothing is left bnt tha frame work of the building. A strong north-east wind prevailed and the good work of the departmedt prevented communication of fire to other build ings near by. The building burned was erected by the Best management and waa a neat and substantial one. For the present the building opposite tha general offices will bo used for waiting rooms, ticket office, eto. When we visited the station jester day morning arrangements were be ing mad to begin the immediate ereo- tion'of a new and modern station with every convenience for passengers train men, engineers, eto.- It will be two stories, handsomely finished and oomplete in all the appointments of first-class modern station'. It -will be located at the corner of the railroad park with a covered platform extending up the track and covered drive ways for bus, drsyT, etc., so that passengers and bagage will be at all times protect ed from the sun and rain. Mr. Bryan informs us that it will be so built that the motley crowd of small boys which now impedes the movement of passen gers upon the arrival end departure of trains will no longer be able to give an noyances Being located on the down town aide of the Jraok passengers and vehicles will no longer have to oroee the railroad to reach it. Architecturally it will be an ornament to the town.' Want to Know What Was Written, We had several calls for the Golds- boro Argus yesterday end many re quests to publish what the Argus said about the petition thai was carried around by Mr. Dill in Oddsboro to ob tain signatures for the purpose of keep ing in the present management- of the A. &N. 0. E. "; It is the duty of s newspaper to pub liah the news; this is what people sub scribe to and pay for them for, and while he publisher claims the right to decide what will suit his readers beet yet he must on some occasions yield to their demands and give them what they want. -JfVffi -2- t if- 'K '-- Touching this matter of petitions we think there is something in the consti tution which guarantees the tight cf r '' :a,er.lif the people wact Wpe- Ution the Governor to retain the preeeat management of the road we think they have the right to do so." The point, however, that the Argus makes in this oase is, that tha petition is carried around by one of the employees of the road, and it wants to know who is pay ing fo( tha time. The JoraftAL. withes to state, oaoe for ail, that in discussing the A. & N. C, R. it wishes to be perf eotly fair and juat to the preaent management. We have no more interest in who manages the A. & N. C R. than any other tax-payer in the county. We have earned and ex pect to earn every favor we have had or expect from it. Every tax-payer ought to want its trafflo inoreaaed, its earnings increased and its yalue in oreaaed. If any management uses it In a way to injure its traffic, to decrease its value and to the injury of the people who hare a special interest in it, the Governor, who hae the ap pointing power, ought to be acquainted with the facta. The Journal is ready to give facts in regard to the matter if the people or the management want to use its ool umns for that purpose. To the Citizens of New Berne. At a call meeting of the Board of Trade and citizens of New Berne, on Tuesday night, Mr. Coffin, the repre sentative of the Manufacturers' Record , a well-known publication edited and publiehed in Baltimore, Md.. and de voted to the development of the manu facturing and general interests of the South, addressed the gentlemen present. After a brief introduction by Mr. Allen, Mr. Coffin said that speech-making was not in his line, but that he would en- ear or to lay before the meeting some facts and figures. He said that people living in the South but in a faint meas ure appreciated their great and rapid progress and the untold undeveloped resources of the South that yet re mained untouched. That the past three months of the new year bad outstripped the last quarter of the old year very largely, and that the coming months would show a much greater increase. He spoke of the towns of the West that bad under adverse surroundings and a great lack of natural advantages at tained phenomenal growth and devel opment, and in bis opinion the result was entirely due to printer 'sink coupled with judgment and energy. That the important and most necessary auxiliary to suocess was the fact of constantly keeping before the people the town or locality to be developed, and the ad vantages such town or locality can offer to capital or labor as a plaoe of invest ment or habitation. He gave figures and statistics to support his remarks. The meeting agreed upon a plan of advertising whioh is both practicable and feasible. Advertising cannot be done without money, and money cannot be had without business, and business cannot exist to any great extent with out progress, and a nourishing oommu nity. it waa deoided that a fund be raised to be devoted to the thorouchly advertisine: of New Berne, and that it be made a general fund, that one dollar be the maximum amount contributed, and that amount be raised by eubsorip tion, the person contributing agreeing to pay one dollar per month on demand. A committee, oompoeed of Jas. W Waters, K. R. Jonee, Geo. Allen, Ralph Gray, H. S. Nunn, and the chairman of the meeting, J. A. Bryan, waa appoint ed. The oity will be thoroughly can vassed, and it is hoped that a consider able fund will be raised for this very necessary purpose. The fund will be held by tho Board of Trade for the special purpose as is- set forth in this article, and for the carrying out of the establishment of factories of several kinds in our midst. Any one who wishes to understand more thoroughly the plan of advertising proposed, can get information desired on the subject by applying to the members of the committee as stated above. Jas. W. Watxks, Chairman. A Pltirni Sight. Goldsboio Argus. To such a poor pass has it come that Mr.. Washington Bryan. President of the A. & N. O. R. R.. has to send out his Superintendent, Mr 8. L. Dill, to make personal appeals to the merchants and tradespeople or uoidsboro and it is to bs presumed elsewhere along the line to sign a petition requesting that the said Washington Bryan, be retained President of the said road when the Dropef time oomes for . making change? It Was t pitiful looking sight to see Superintendent Dill, or the A. N. u. a. n., ambling up end down our streets Yesterday la the chilly atmoa pbere, end drizzly rain, worn store to score, peaaung'inas petition ior mu. President cry an. It was not only piti ful to behold, but it was undignified and unprecedented in the said Presi dent and his Superintendent, as well as beiscexoeedttglT distasteful to many of our citizsns. We dot know whether any of out people signed.the petition Or not. we hone they; did " not. , for as yet, the record of President Bryan's administration of this piece or vain able Bute property . has . not been made duduo .in. the meantime, we would like to know u superintendent Dill's ptr diem while performing this toeetat service of "carrying round" Mr, Bryani petition is to do included in nis salary aa Superintendent, or whether it is to be deducted front ni salary and defrayed' by Mr. Bryan from hie private funds. President Bryan is- so exact and hair-splitting in his performance of hi own "offioial" duties? that w ask fof information on this point, la other words, do the duties of Superintendent of the A. SC If. U. B. K. include that of "currying around" the petition in ".- ,:ru and suchlike 'foreign' set !. '.rri'if We know that the duties of President of the A. & N. C. R. R . include (in Mr. Bryan's estimation) that of "earrying" the fishing poles of the Governor; but the opinion of the public aa to the duties of these offices in ques tion, what of that? And as these offices are public offices the opinion of the public is to beconai Jered and nhould be regarded. OKTH CAB0L1.M EWS. From the State Taper. Asheville Citizen The bin!

Paul Howell and Henry Bean's stables were burned. The meeting which begun in the Methodist church last Sunday week is still in progress, and will probably continue through this week. The congregations have been large at every service and great interest manifested. The meeting has resulted, so far, in many conversions. Elizabeth City News: The commis sioners have at last decided to obey the law and build a new jul. The latest news of the storm confirms all that we first heard and adds more wrecks and further loss of life to the already long list. On the coast of North Carolina the storm was the severest for years, and in Albemarle and Pamlico Bounds there never was such loss of life and property. The schooner Parrot, (he Susan Caro line, the Maggie Etta, the Susana, and two other boats hailing from Elizabeth City are lost, and Robert Whiteburst, a white boy, Mathew Uranberry, Fred. Gaskill and a man name Bailey, all colored, are drowned. At Nag's Head a large lumber schooner is ashore, and the storm tore away several cottages en tirely and considerably damaged the others. The north end of the hotel is broken away and sanded over.
