Land left on the steamer Neuse yesterday tor Fortress Monroe with the expectation of there joining the United States Army. Some complaint, and justly too, is made at having no light at the entrance to the theatre.

Slover, is building another neat dwelling, at the foot .of Union street, alongside the one he remodelled last year. The change in that building made quite an improvement and the new one will still further add to the pleasing appear ances of the place. Mr. Josiah Daniels, of Hog Island while out bunting with a friend last week had the good luok to kill three raccoons at one shot. He saw only one, and getting Into a very advantageous position he blazed away, when down tumbled three instead of one. This is the best coon shot we ever heard of. With this issue we begin with a por tion of the reading matter fur the Fair Edition of the Weekly Journal, which will be issued next week, but all that is intended to go in It will be required this week. We wish further to state that all addresses furnished us to stnd a copy to should be written plain. We can not guarantee the parties ever getting them unless the address is written in English. The operation on Mr. M. E. White hurst's eye proved a vcrysuccesslul one, and though improvement in bis sight is ' not looked for, it is expetcd that it will not become any worse.

The Treasurer as soon as possible, will pay the successful exhibitors who have been awarded premiums. All premiums not called for w ithin 30 days after awarded will be considered donated to the Fair. INVITATION. Tht members of the press generally are invited to atteud our Fair, and if they will make their intention to come know n to the Secretary he will gladly furnish them tickets ot admission. SI OOEST10N8 TO EXHIBITORS. Make your entries early, and take your exhibits to the grounds at the time desig nated in the rules, and don't nf k to re ove them until the close ot the Fair. It is not a wise plan to conclude, be fore you leave home, that the things you arc going to show are so macli better than what anyone else will have, that yours will take the p-cmiutii as a matter of course. When you are unsuccessful, don't ex pose your temper or disappointment by loud and angry talk, and uncompliment ary attacks upon the judgts. Judges somtimes make mistakes, but they iutend to be honest, and their shortcomings, as a rule, are pure and simple errors ol judgment. It is often the case that there is not room for decided judgment, and the skill ol the best judges is overt.-.xed t detect differences. A slight point may have weight to turn the decision against yoc; but still you are really bene fitted by the bIiow about as much as though they marked the prize for you, because the public, being aware of close contest, will fairly discriminate and rec ognize the fact that your animal or arti cle is a superior one,quite an equal match lor the prize one, and really good enough for any body. Under provocation, bet ter be silent than noisy, that will be advertising your disappointment. Don't growl and grumble, but make allowances for the difficulties of (running a big Fair without some misfits. What you can't put up with go to the officers quietly, and it will be remadied. 50 INCH DOLL for TAYLOR'S. 12.50 at L. J.

The In flny of Nms Rlv.r 4 hannrl From Mumps Now la Projn . For lie past two year Mr. W. 11. Chadoi urm , I S. Assistant Eogii eer. has tK-en dwn:: o.d feivice in this ilis trict in river and harbor improvement woik by removing from Ess, Carolina waters tho,- things which were a bar tn navigation, orwliuhwere a menace to vessels usin' our streams. In t lie NeUse river heretofore 111 ia work has lieen con fined mninlv to the removal of logs, trees and Miags, but three nocks ago he began pullin:; up stumps from the channel ol t:ie river. We paid a visit ytstcrday to where the work was in progress, out in the clunnel just in front ol the Lewis Ferry wharl a little above the city, and were con siderably surprised at what the investi gation reveaied to us regarding the nature of the river's bottom. v e lounci mat wncre the lorce umler overseer Durham was at work the bottom of the channel hail stumps in it pretty near us thick as large trees would iw in a ioresr. .nr. Lliuilbourne gave the interesting information that the stumps a.e found entirely across the river as far up and down it as he has examined until the point U reached where the water leco'in's salt. I iie-o s'uinps indicate unmistakably Hi il at th time they grew the Ne lse river was not. flowing just where it .Iocs new, nut us nearly an tne stumps are cypress the natural presumption is that the present river course was low swampy land wnrn they flourished. In the work ol removal no attention is paid to the shallow water clearing the channel is the object aimed at. One of the stumps pulled up last week. neir where I he hoisting machine is now working, measured six feet in diameter. One that we witnessed them at work was near the same size. The stumps was broken into several pieces by dynamite iu order to release its hold on the bottom, but one of the roots taken up entirely was about fourteen lect in length, and larger around at the thick part than a man's body. The top of this stump, standing in the channel, right where the tree grew w as seven leet below die surface of the w ater, and y t it w as chai red across the top shnwing that at some time in the remote past it had been on lire. After we had witnessed the removal of several pieces the hooks failed to do their work. After a dozen or more ineffective attempts recourse was again had to blasting. The first thing pulled up then was a big anchor of several hun died pounds weight. It was judged to have been there about half a century Janil was no iloulil lost by becoming entangled in the stump; so that, it could not be re leased. The action ol t'.ie water bad put a curious appearance upon it. in some plnccs it has, upon a casual look, almost as much the appearance of wood as of iron. The anchor and some of the big stumps removed will be exhibited at the New Berne Fair. It can thus hi seen. to some extent, the benefit of the work being done. One sharp prong of the anchor was sticking directly uptvur.l and if a vessel had struck upon it, trouble would have resulted, as it would also if soinj of the worst stumps were struck. Tho Government should continue to look out properly for all improvement work; and entrench on expenditures that benefit the public but little. GET OLD BAKER 1801 TOU YOUR CHRISTMAS.
