The Editor of the North Carolina
Tsaoher seemingly fixed it Inovaoably
New Bern. . ;.: ,
A week or more ago we promised to
say something on the eubjeot for the
Joobbal. It would have been incon
venient before to have undertaken the
task. We will therefore at this time
attempt to present feota which mar not
prove uninteresting to our people. -
"The editor of the Teaoher" it is
stated, "assisted our lamented Ool. W.
L. Saunders, secretary or state, in a
long search of the old records for the
oorreot orthography ot this name and
we find it to be beyond all possible
doubt "New Berne" and ia this man
ner we expect always to spell it."
Indeed very cool. It forcibly recalls
an incident in the life of our famous
oitiien, John Stanly of New Bern.
New Bern is thus written on nis tomo
in Cedar Grove Cemetery. It oould
not have been accidental. The marble
slab bearing the Inscription upon it on
arrival here from the North was re
turned to have the e out out of the
name. Stanley, and the dates out in
words to rsDlaoo the figures, ho
attention then was given to the Ceme
tery. It was not an unusual occurrence
for unthoughtf nl boy s to make a grave
stone the target for gun ebot and to
ohangewith their pocket knives the
ages of the dead insoribed on their
tombs. It was the favorite resort for
bird hunters in winter and a place for
oattle to bronze and rest in summer.
It was the home for goats and the root
ing gronnd for hogs. . Under the oedars
dogs prowled and howled without
molestation. Bank growing weeds.
bushes and briars oovered thickly the
saoredduet. It was shamelessly neg
lected. The Cemetery had been better
oared for before, but of the period of
whloh we write, it was thus neglected.
Unroll the record ot time. See it
was only two soore years back. Won
der and wonder again and again, ts
well we may, how there have arisen,
under the circumstances, opposition f o
strenuous to the construction ot the
rook wall around the city Cemetery for
its permanent protection that it reached
the verge ot -defeating some of the
town Commissioners favoring the im
provements. But the ladies coming
forward unitedly tnd without e saluta
ry laggard quiokly gave the victory.
Ever last at the cross and flfdt at the
stave woman. Many of the routers

thiiwall was erected-" .
But to the inoident referred to. John
Stanly and Vine Allen, both lawyers of
prominenoe, were wrangling in court
rotative to the statement a man bad
before made and who was tben dead.
Allen averring what be stated was
bevond all nosslbe doubt as he had
himself she man prior to his death
whose words he had oorreotlv repeated.
Stanly hastily rejoined that might be
so but he had also visited the slok man
afterwards who must have believed he
erred In his previous statements as he
was bv ntm given tntormauon aireotiv
in oonfliot with that the court had just
heard ' and It oould not have been

8. B. Street, Esq had another case
growing out of the trouble before him
yesterday. Tuesday three of the men
who favor retaining the present pastor,
Bev. Thoe. MoDaniel were at work in
the ohuroh with fastened doors, chang
ing the looks oa them so that the oppos
ition oould not get In. Four of the
women who are opposed to the preacher
forced the doors and were ronghly
ejected by the men. Mr. Street
found all bnt one of the men
guilty of an affray and fined them
S3. 50 eaoh and costs. All took an ap
peal and were plaoed under a $50 jus
tified bond. An attempt was made to
place; two of the men under a peace
bond but the action was dismissed at
