Jones County Enthusiastic Progress of the Work The Surveying Party at rollocksville. Believing that our readers are deeply interested in whatever pertains to the railroad now in process of construction between Wilmington and New Berne, ye reporter in company with Mr. 0. E. Foy, equipped with one of Mr. J. W. Stewart's serviceable teams, made an early Btart Thursday morning with the intention of finding the surveying party, so that we might furnish our readers with the latest information on the subject. By inquiry, as we noared tho scene of operations, we learned that the survey ors the evening before were on the plantation of Mr. John Simmons, a prominent and prosperous farmer, three miles from Pollocksville, which plantation, by the way, was the birth place and early home of our companion, Mr. Foy. The house in whioh Mr. Sim mons resides is the same that was owned and occupied by Mr. Foy's father, and Mr. Simmons keeps the surroundings in such good order, and tho dwelling so nicely painted, that in spite of its age one might well be ex cufcd for mistaking it for a recently constructed residence. Wo found we had missed the party we wero in eearch or, but the good folks of the house save us what infor mation they pOBgessod find made us heartily welcome, and we remained with them an hour or two eniovine their genial hospitality until dinner, soon after which Mr. F. L. Pittman, the chiof engineer of tho road, and several other gentlemen made their appearance Und we met with nn fnri.hnr difficulty in prosecuting our search. We found that the survey had indeed been run the previous evening close to Mr. Simmons' dwelling and a little be - yend it, but it was discovered that they w re about to come out a little above Pollooksville, which was not what was desired, so their steps were retraced and the line iun a little more to the right, through the back part of Mr. Simmons' place, through two of Mr. Foy's plantations, through Mr. John Pearce's between his residence and gin house, and then down tho eastern- most atreet of Pollocksville. to the banks of Trent river, at which spot we left them about eundown Thursday even - ing, when wo parted from them and started on our homeward way. They expected to continue tho survey yesterday on this side of the river, which was doubtless done, and the close of the day in all likelihood found them about three miles this side of Pollocksville, within about ton miles of New Berne, which is as close as they intend to run this Burvey at present. "But," some of our readers may aBk, why this delay? Why should they stop? Why not complete the survey at once, right on to New Berne?" We will explain the reason, which is just this: While it is an assured fact that the road is coming to New Berne, it is by no means certain that it is going to Pollocksville; there are other routes under consideration, and this is only a preliminary survey to determine which routo will be taken. The final survey hat been made, and the route accurately determined from Wilmington as far as Jacksonville, and the road is now built and engines running on it within eleven miles of that place, and about the middlo of next month it is expected to have the trains running, not into Jacksonville, but to the opposite side of Now river, on which it is situated, but it will not be long before tho bridge across the river, leading the railroad into tho town will be constructed. The road is then coming on to New Berne. The question arises: How BhallHcome? . , There aro three routes under con sideration, known as the upper, the '"D u" P1"1 now hft9 a Preliminary Survey II..-, m . l m . . 1 antiafonfArtf Wfw f Vtniv mivnASd aF r.M A "T "rA lower route from Jacksonville to Stella and from Stella to James City. It passes through no village except Stella. The middle route is the one now just surveyed, through Maysville and Pol locksvllle and a little beyond, and the r,arhr will now rMnrn to -j j Jacksonville and commence on the - nnn.r r Qd&ker Brtdire route and snr- in 1 ----- t- - . .. . . . Berne. This upper route does not pass through any town or village, but tounh on th hnrdftr th.t action o nn.i- nnn,i. fcn. nt.hi.iM.. . . I . The shortest route that can be Uken it Ll. aireot llne-would be two or three " j -1 l.

Hinton, who is known as the transit-man, as certains the direction and keeps ac count of the distances the hinder seo tion, under the charge of Mr. J. W. Hinton, who is known as the level-man, ascertains and keeps account of the elevations and depressions of the land ; this is done exactly at the end of every hundred feet throughout the whole route. The party hews out a way right through (he forest; if they come to water, mud, noisome swamp or marsh, through it they plunge; if a sapling or a monarch of the forest is in the line of the surveys' instruments down it comes, no passing around it but straight on they march, thus a narrow path is opened up and the route can be traced thereby, as well as by their stakes driven in the ground. After the surveys of the different routes are concluded, three things will enter principally into the calculation to determine wbich one shall be used, namely: The cost of construction of each route and the probable amount of traffio that would probably be secured over it, and the readiness with which people along the different lines grant the right of way. Some circumstances, but little re garded as momentous by the people generally, might be the very thing that would decide the railroad managers to take one route or the other. The right of way is au important consideration, and if the people along one of the pro posed routes should be enterprising enough to take time by tLe forelock and I proffer the railroad the rieht of way without any break or interruption, through the places it wishes to traverso that might be the pivot on w hich the location of the road would turn, I especially if there were any objections raised to giving rights of way over the 1 other routes. Many of the people with whom we conversed seem keenly alive to this faot. Some have already given the right of way, and others signified their readiness to do so. Mr. II. C. Foscue and Mr. Calvin DeBruhl have not only given their own right but are busying themselves induoing their neighbors to do likewise. The people generally are anxious for the road, enthusiasts for it, and teem ready to exert themselves to secure it, and they are to be com 1 mended for their progressive and public spirit. The ladies with whom we con- versed seemed equally as interested as the men and as much in favor of it. All the people are aroused on the I railroad question. Go where you will- Ion the farm, in the stores, in other I nlaces of business or in residences and 1 you will find it the topio of conversa- tion. and vou will find the nartiea ad- vocating the road. The ladies with whom we conversed seemed equally as interested as the men and as much in favor of it. We were surprised to see such a fine I section as there is in the vioinity of I Polloksville and Maysville. A railroad I through such a garden spot of North Carolina would indeed make it bloom and blossom like a rose. We were clad I to soe the enterprising citizens so much I interested in the road. While we here in New Berne feel satisfied the road I will be built to this city, they realize if they are left out in the route they have most likely lost their only chanoe for a railroad ever to be built throuab I their section, and this is indeed an im- I portant question to them just now I Personal Rev.

INCENDIARY ATTEMPT. A Young Merchant or LaUrange Hires (1 VavW, is, III. Ilia U t ., .... I An inoendiary attempt was frustrated at, ijairrauKo iaBi inursaay num. About three weeks ago a negro, Robt. tiyman, tola Mr. J. A. Fans that Mr J. D. Summerlia had tried to hire him buom uib ouiuuieruu b; more uu lire. I Mr. bummerlin ii a young man who! was well thought of in LtiUraDge and Mr. raris did not believe the uei;ro The negro told Mr. Paris be would ar range a meeting with Mr. Summerlin and that Mr. Paris could overhear the conversation. One night a few day afterwards the meeting occurred and Mr. Paris heard Mr. Hummerlin's prop osition to tne negro to burn his etoro telling him that he was in debt en 1 the fire must occur on Wednesday night after the 2d Sunday in October, as he must have the insurance beforo a cer tain date or his creditors would close him up. Mr. Pans at once notified the police and a watch was kept on the store. It was observed that Mr. Summerlin was moving the most valuable goods into a little store across the street. Mr. Sum merlin had recently insured his stock for $800. The building he did business in belongs to Mr. J. E. B. Whitfield The negro told Mr. Paris, the police and others who were in the secret, of soveral other conversations afterwards, in which Mr. Summerlin tried to hire him to fire the store. The negro would not consent to do it, so he said. On Wednesday week the negro savs Mr. bummerlin tried to hire him to fire it that night, but he refused to do it. The negro was told to agree with Mr. summerlin to nre tno building on Thursday night if Summerlin would pnt oil on it. This Summerlin at first refused to do, so says the negro. The negro positively refused to fire the building unless Summerlin would put oil on it, which Summerlin finally agreed to do. That night Summerlin told the negro that he had poured on the oil and for him to do his part. The authorities told the negro to go on and fire the building but not to let it burn. The negro set the fire which slightly charred the building but was at once put out. ihe building hred was a small ware house between Summerlin's and D. M, Stanton's, and a fire there would have burned the entire block and possibly all the business part of the town. Summerlin was arrested and held until Friday afternoon when he was brought before Justice Sutton for a hearing. Messrs. N. J. Rouse and H E. Shaw represented the town. Sum merlin said he was not ready for trial and asked time to get counsel from Qoldsboro. The case was postponed until Saturday morning. On Friday night the prisoner escaped from the town lock-up, and we under stand the indications are that the lock up was broken open from the outside and the prisoner released. The town of LaOrange has offered a reward of $50 for the apprehension of Summerlin. Kinston Free Press. There Is Probably More Soap Brought to the town of New Berne than any other town in the State.
