The present Irish potato crop in this vicinity is the best fall crop of these tu bers ever grown here of course the fall crop is not expected to near equal the spring crop, but there have been some good yields. Mr. Henry Taylor dug four hundred bushels off of less than nine and a half acres which is better than we hive beard of any one outside of Craven doing on the same size p'ece of ground. Just on a small patch Mr. B. F. Tolson did better than we have thus far heard oi any one else doing. He dug thirty three barrels of large, very fine potatoes from a half acre. At the rate of sixty- six bushels to tbe acre is a very good yield indeed in the fall. The Durham Sun says: 'Rev. and Mrs. O. C. Newton, daughter and son- Miss Berta and Master Roy, who have been visiting friends and relatives in Ncrth CaroHm since their return from Africa, having spent much of their time in Durham, left this morning, via the D. A N. for Richmond. Rev. and Mrs, Newton and Miss Berta will sail next on their return to Africa, to resume their work in the missionary field.' In the correspondence of the N. C Presbyterian newt is given from the First Presbyterian church of Savannah, of which Rev. L. C. Yass, D. D., formerly of New Berne, is pastor. Since Dr. Yass' pastorate began In November J890,"119 aembers have been added to the church, 43 have been add.l . since July 1892. Daring the past year' the increase in col lections was S,267. - God's , blessing seems to rest 'upon the chnrch In every way. ? j ?: i ' ":4fe ' ' " " .:, The Charlotte Observer says that it is a little curious that jnst now the Popn list in this State put in a good deal of their time asking Democrats "if they , en done Mr. Cleveland." " One of them was asked why he made this .inquiry, and his reply was that if so there waa going to be s split in the party. " He talked about this as if he felt sure. He spoke then of Populist chances In North Cxolina and hinted (rather vaguely that big things might be done here by his party. He was asked why ' there ,-, was V "such a flat - : failure . in , , .Yir ginia, after a Populist editor . in this State had, declared that such great work was being done in the Old Dominion. He then said that this editor some time ago had said confidentiolly that the Populist sfood no sort of show In Virginia. . The ropu'lsts wi'l in this State seek to draw iii to f.i-ir i 'a every Democrat who u'. , i cf i1" "tiolaction. ANOTHER YKTZBAW PASSES A WAT Capt. John O'Coaaer, Ue Xoted Scent " Dies at Bis Heme la Herfolk. Captain John O. Connor, a very daring Irish-Confederate scout who rendered the Southern cause strange service, died in Norfolk on tbe 15th Inst A number of Capt Connor's exploits were perfor med near New Berne and this city was bis home for two or three years after the war, then be removed to Norfolk. Our older citizens, especially those who ser ved in the war, know and tell a number of interesting reminiscensea of this brave and ingenious but modt man. Space forbids our goinj; into Hiem bowover and we content uuiaulvea witb furnishing the following notico from i ..c Norfolk Ledger John O'Connor, was a man who seldom apeke of bis own achievements, but those best acquainted wilu him knew uim to be one of tbe most daring scouts that served the Confederacy during the war between tbe otau-s. liis nclu ot oper ations was in Eastern North Carolina, undc the command of General Robert Ransom, and so valuable were his services to the Southern cause that a large reward was offered by tbe Federal authorities for bis capture. On one occasion, with seven men, be surprised end captured. near Hew Berne, an entire company ol Federal troops and carried bis prisoners across the lines to GoldBboro. lie was a man of great bravery and determination. In his death whicn occured at Ins resi dence, No. 99 Yarmouth street, this moruinc, Norlolk loses a highly esteemed citizen, and one who had been among her most successml residents. Ho was 5i years of age, and leaves a widow anil several ebildren. One would not eunnose. from his unpretentious mien, that he was a man ol remarkable history, but tbe story ol his life is one of interest. As a Confederate soldier he was distinguished for intrepi dity anu great usefulness. Commissioned by the Confederate Government as a captain of scouts, with a roving commission, bis operations wee generally conducted within the lines of tbe enemy He kept tho commanding general well informed of the strength and move ments of the opposing army, and with bis small band of followers lei 1 upon Federal raiding, foraging and mauradiiig par.ies from r.mbush, with terrible coo seouences to them. n moving upon tbe enemy's rear the Confederate commanders often used Captain O'Connor as a guide and with implicit confidence lol lowed lum through forest and swamp. He was astute, let icent, imperturbable and knew not fcar. Ills operations were mainly earned on in Eastern North Carolina and near Nor folk when tbe Federals occupied this teiritory. The danger of his duties may be illustrated by a single incident: When one night he was in tbe enemy's crmp, counting their teats and estimating t.icir fo 'c, he was suddenly arres cd by Federal soldier, but by prompt action he disarmed bis captor, compelled him, at tbe muzzle of bis pistol, to guide him safely back to his owj lines, and then made tbe Federal a pr.soner. Captain O'Conner was held in sucu terror by the opposing a my in New Berne that his picture was published in a Northern illustrated paper and a re ward offered for his head. But that bead only fell upon his peaceful pillow, sur rounded by his family, and in bis last moments he mt t tho grim monster with out (ear or trerublin?. As a citizen of Norfolk he became well known as an active, intelligent and IVith lul member bf the Common Counc'l f.om the Second Wa'd. He was a consVeQt Democrat, always conservative, publx spirited ana the steady foe of corruption and improvidence. He was always on the side of good governme i. municipal, State and national, end for no selfish purpose. Coming and Going. Rev. C. G. Vardell went up to Durham yesterday in behalf of special work placed in bis bands by the Presbytery. Rev. F. W. Fairies lea for Clinton to remain until week after next serving the Presbyterian church at that place which at present is without a pastor. Mrs. O. W.

Good Roads Must Come. The town of Durham, says the Sun, is going right ahead In the making of good roads. It goes on further to say that the same interest should be awakened in the county. They are an essential condition of prosperity. Roads that will be as good in winter as In summer. Roads that will not melt in the rain. Roads that will not shame ns in the presence of visitors. Roads that will be a luxury for hauling and ' pleasure driving. Roads that will save temper, : time, toil, team. Roads that will show that we are abreast of the times. l '' A-rv; All that has been ' said by the Bun k equally fitting to oar section and tht Jot .mail will continue to agitate for bet ter roads until some move baa been mado in that direction. ", Our city has made wonderful improve menu in her streets and sidewalks, but Ciaveu county has done bat little. : - i. The Washington Gasette tells of a man trying to sell a hog to the batchers bf t J&t town which according to his own admission was sick when killed and which bore evidence of having died . with cholera,'' The Gazette urges that the man be apprehended and ' severely punished for trying to palm off diseased meat. It esg 'at to be done. J . Sawessfal Revivsls. Tie Concord Times gives tbe following religious item: Pcv. M. A Smith clcwd a most re markable aeries or religious meetings at Forrst Hill church. The meeting con tinued tor twowoeks, and resulted in about 150 conversions, a large number joining Jlie church. Mr. smith was assisted bv Rev. Z. Pan, or Norwood, and Mr. Paris waa presented with a purse of f r0 by the Forest Hill people for his faithful and efficient labor.'' The Burlington News has the following to say of a revival there: "The revival meeting at the Methodist church was carried on by Ri v. J. W. Jones till Friday night, when it closed, with services conducted by Dr. t. A. Yati s. The results have been wonderful. In all there were near a hundred conver sions and leclamations, and the cbuicb greatly revived. Eighteen joined the Methodist Church Sunday and many will join other churches. Mr. Jones' preach ing has wen of an eicelient kind, Hunted and to tbe mark, and ho will be remem bered kindly by all as an earnest worker and a consecrated man. It is the opinion of many that this has been tnc most powerful meeting held iu many years and the good done will go on down the ages. Returned Missionaries to Visit Sew Berne. Rev. Frederick W.
