Interesting Pamphlet. jar. w. u. unver ia prepnting handsome pamphlet on the New Berne Fair for distribution. Fifteen hundred copies will soon be judiciously placed It treats brielly of New Berne and gives full page cngrnvings of tho Collegiate Institute and the Confederate soldiers' monument, but is principally devoted to highly complimentary extracts from leading papers throughout the State and in other States, showing how cur past efforts have been appreciated by the crowds of visitors, some of them from distant places that are drawn to New Berne annually by the exhibitions that we nvake. An allusion in it, oopied from tho Tennessee Argonaut, alluding to tho fish department, says "It wae dcubtlcs3 the finest collection and greatest variety of fish ever shown in this country." This annual Fair is doing more than any other one thing to bring Eastern North Carolina prominently before the world, with its fine natural advantages, its wealth of resources, and magnificent opportunities for profitable inyeetments bv enterorisina caDitalists in manufar. turing and other enterprises, and it behooyes not only New Berneans, but every resident of every neighboring county, to do his full share in providing exhibits for the Fair that will forcibly impress every visitor with tho excel lence of this favored section in which we live. Tho time for the Fair is draw mg nign. i)0 ready witn a gooa exhibit. The Fair. Mr. William II. Oliver has under' taken to get tip samples of all woolen and cotton goods which are manufac tured in the South for exhibition at the approaching Fair. Mr. Oliver has just received samples of hosiery made at the Goldsboro factory. We doubt if any of our merchants know that such goods are manufactured at Goldsboro, but bfre Mr- Olivor is done with them there will be but few who will not know it. Let the factories at Kinston Tarboro, Charlotte, Pittsboro, Asheville and other places eond in samples of their make of underwear and let it be put on exhibition. Don't wait until just before the Fair, but send it now direoted to Mr. W. II. Oliver and he ill see . it properly cared for. Tbe goods will cither be retained, or sold and oheck sent for the sale of them. Eastern Carollrra Dispatch I On and after Monday. January 5th ne9days and Fridays. Geo, Henderson, Agent.

Watson, their little grand daughter Carrie and the colored man who oooks for them, who were the only ones that partook of the coffee used at breakfast were taken violently ill the other members of the household not being affected. Drs. Frank and Chailes Duffy are attending them but they were still quits sick laet night. Symptom? are that of arsenical poisoning. The regular cook waa off Thursday and bis place was temporarily filled by a colored woman. She prepared the coffee for supper, but owing to the family's having had a late dinner, sup per was sparingly partaken of and the coffee was not used until the next morning. The temporary cook came in after the parties named were taken sick and offered to drink of tho cutleo, but was not permitted to do so. No charges have been made against any one, and the affair ia ea yet ehroudsd in mys tery. UNSATISFACTORY SUUUESTIONS. Objections to the Law Proposed by the Oyster Conference at Elizabeth City. Editor Journal: We noticj in the Weekly Journal of January 1st an article said to be a clipping from the Elizabeth City Economist, of an oyster conferenco held at Elizabeth City, of an informal, free-and-easy character, which, after a full, fair and straight forward investigation, came to the con clusion to suggest the following to the Legislature for its consideration, amendatory to tho oyster laws of North Carolina: "1. That the law in its reference to non residents, as it exists, should be gidly enforced." This we approve of and is to our minds the only wise and disinterested conclusion and suggestion of the meet- ng referred to. 2. That a 'culling' law should be passed by the Legislature requiring all oysters under the size of two inches from hinge to moutb.be not removed. under a penalty of fine, imprisonment, confiscation, or as the Legislature may enact, except oysters taken for planting n North Carolina. We are not burn thr.t -o craep the full meaning of the latter article, but will venture to say that it was not sug gested by an ojfetermau. or ono ac quainted with tho oyster business of our sounds. We approve of a "culling" law, but many of our best oysters grow in bunches which are often covered with mall oysters, leas than two inches in length, adhering to the large oystors. the removal of which would break the shell and spoil both large and small. 3. That a liconeo tax cf -?3 a ton should be required of all boats engaged n taking oysters from the natural beds, except boats owned by residents twelve months preceding tho act, and taking oysters for ealo to private porsona. " "Taking oystera for sale to private persons " we do not understand the meaning of, nor are wo lawyer enough to say whether this discrimination between residents and non-residents in regard to license conflicts with the Inter-Ftate Commerce act or not, but would say that of all the deliberations and suggestions of this oyster confer ence this is the most absurd, unreason able and unjust to the residents of North Carolina, because they, and not outsiders, ought to have the full benefit of the oysters, and this law would open wide tbe door for all non-residents to oarry off as large quantities of our oysters as they please without any restraint exoept the payment of this small license tax, which wonld amount on boats of from fifteen to thirty-five tons to from to lUO for a year's license for dredging. This dredger, so licensed, might pay the amount mentioned by a few hours' work. The fourth and fifth articles being lengthy and unimportant we will not quote, but would say that no wise body of men would pass a law without making provisions for executing the same. 6. That owners 'of oyster establish ments now in full operation or such as may hereafter be established shall have the same rights and privileges as rcai dents." This we approve of. The editorial opinion of article the third is ' that a license tax of two or three dollars upon non-residents would furnish a princely revenue, from which fund a police might be paid to execute the law upon such non-residents as attempted to take oysters from our waters without license. It oecura to us that this u similar to a suggestion to enact a law requiring horse thieves to pay a license tax for tbe purpose of raising a fund fcr prosecuting thoso that eteal without license. We do not believe that one man out of one hundred residents of the State of North Carolina who are interested and understand the oyster business in its every feature in the waters of our State would sanction permitting non residents to take oysters under any consideration.

Mattocks, M. D. Children Cry for pitcher's Castor?;, The Campaign in North Carolina. Under the above heading we find an article in the New York "Nation" of Dec. 11th. It is written by a corres pondent from Chapel Hill and gives what we believe to be pretty nearly a true statement of the situation in tb s State. We quote: "To the Editor of The Nation : Sir: It may interest some of your readers to know that during the recent campaign quite a number of tbe more prominent Republicans of this State openly withdrew from their party, most of them alleging as the cause tbe McKinley bill and the Lodge Election bill. Again, during tbe election, a certain tool of the Administration, for the purpose of getting material in sup port of the Lodge bill, went down to one of the black counties to watch the election, and. having been invited into the polling-place, was frcj to admit that he could see no unfairnees It is also interesting to note that tbe negroes eesm to have grown discon tented with the control of the white Republican minority, and in some oounties nominated tickets of the r own, in others did not vote at all, and in others voted the Demoratic tick it. In acertain township containing a large number of negroes, only one of them voted the Republican ticket, and he for only one candidate. If this beginning shall result in a more even distribution of the negro vote among the two par ties, will it not do more towards tet tling the negro problem than tha Lodge Bill ? Very truly, W. M.
