I , ll i mi s snip uuiHisrs is excellent, inis now railway is a step in the right direction, and is a long felt want, as rapid devolop ment of steam transportation has necessitated vcssols of greatly enlarged carrying capacity, consequently of great er length, and heretofore all large vessels or steainors navigating our waters in need of repairs have been compelled to visit jnorioiK or naitimoro. wo may now reasonably expect that much of the business of ship repairing and also build ing of vessels and steamers will be retained in New Berne, and wo will again hear as in olden times, the sound of the caulking mallet and broad axe from the Howard's ship yard. Wooden vessels and steamon can be built in New 3erno, tnat will ranK in any marine insurance company with vessels built in any port of IUO UU1UJU OMWB, DREDGING SIIOULD BE ALLOWED. But Uuder Proper and Well DeQued Regulations. We copy below a petition that was circulated asking the Legislature to modify the ninety-day law recently en acted prohibiting the use of the dredge in taking oy iters in North Carolina. From the firet breaking out of the oyster trouble in our waters the Journal bas been an earneet advocate in the protection of this inuusUy, but it has oevtr thought it to be wiiso to prohibit dredin, but on tho other hand that it was injurious and a great hindrance to the development and pro gress of this valuable and growing industry. If wo arc) correctly informed, the quantity of ojaters in Fsmiico sound and some of its tributaries is enormous, and those in deep water will remain tuero it ;ett lor tne tongera, because they cannot operate successfully ex cept ia shallow water. Consequently j do not allow dredging where tongers work but permit it in certain depths and within certain boundaries. Beds can be destroyed either by longing or dredging by stripping thora completely leaving to yount; oysters to grow and replenish the supply, but a bed proper ly worked, either by touting or dredg ing is ca.;;'d thereby to improve rather than to deteriorate. Sovero penalties should attach to violations of tho oyster law than to trangressions of similar enormity on land, becauso it is more difficult to reach and correct too guilty parties. The penalty should bo one that will be dreaded with wholsomo fear. Owners and creiva of boats will be very careful not to violate any section i-f t!.o law where confiscation of tho boat by the State id thj penalty attached to a violation.

Tho ciiptninti cf our ojster boats aie willing to be tuxed for Fitch a purpose. They go farther even than to expr ph a willingness. They advocate the measure. Whilo on tho subject of legislation, we wish to call tho attention of the General Assembly to ono mora point. Nearly all canned oysters sent out of this State are labelled with the name of some other State. Hundreds of thous ands of cans are shipped marked 'Baltimore, Maryland." Tho cancers who moved to North Carolina when the beds became exhausted from which they had been receiving their supplies, state that the reason of holding on to the old marks is that their brands are known and Bought for and a changto would involve somo loos of patronage. Admit this, but even then wo still hold that tho St3te should not bo deprived of the credit of its products. Of course, allow the cannera freo priyiligc to use any sobriquet they ploaoa aa a brand, but that is sufficient. Wo do earnestly hope that the Legislature will embody in the bill it passed, a provision that every can nnd ovory box of oanned goods that leavos any cannery in the State shall be plainly marked "North Carolina. " At any rate forbid their being marked hero as tho pro Juct of another State. The petition to allow restricted dredging received tho signatures of many of our business men and has been taken to the Legislature by several of our influential citizens. It reads as follows : To the Honorable the General Assembly of North Carolina : We, the undersigned citizens of the town of New Berne and Craven county, and also oyetormon from surrounding counties and interested in the oyster industry represent 1. That we believe that the present law known as the Ninety-Day Law prohibiting the Dredging of Oysters in any of the waters of the State, is in jurious to the oyster industry, and to those engaged in both the catching and manufacturing oysters, and should be modified, so as to allow a limited amount of Predging ia the deep waters where oysters now exist, and where they cannot be caught by the use of tongs, and we do most earnestly request that you do bo modify your legislation as to allow the citizens of this State who shall have been bona fide citizens for the space of twelve months, to use scrapes or dredges in the deep waters of ram! too sound and tributaries, to say not less than ten feet water, and where the oysters abound in great quantities and cannot be caught by reason of the passage of eaid law. believing that this will afford ample protection to the oyster. 3. That we believe that with a prop er culling law that the use of dredges and eorapee in the deep waters would not be Injurious to the Oyster, but to the contrary would (a limited amount), be benefloial: and we further express it as our, opinion and belief that a very large majority of all the citizens of this part of the State favor such legislation as we your petitioners ask. . :Vo:vi::-v'v ";.;.' - ;' .: ..
