' The Seventh Annual Exhibition of the ..East Carolina Fish, Oyster, Game and In 1 dastrial Association, the grandest one yat .. held, has passed into history. It was a . great success.. - - The art exhibit from Kinsey Seminary though , not as large as the school has sent to the Fair was sufficient to fill one end oi a room with beautiful paintings . and crayon work " and show the good character of the instruction given at the school. ; Those figures of SjuUi sea Islanders exhibited by Mr. John W. Edwards of Goldsboro, In toe curio department de servedly attracted much attention. We heretofore alluded to tbem as being. hid ious yet life-like. We are only sorry that Mr. Edwards could not have been here to. have represented . them bimailf. We are also aotry that Qea'L Lewis was not here to have shown that his bNiaa" was not a good representative ot Mr. Edwards fara C';' 'IT: '-V Mrs. Judge Bryan, we learn, has taken an interest, in the curio department, ; which must certainly result in bringing' oat foots for the future which wilt be of great interest to our people, and we are gratifled'to see such interest manifested by such persons as it ctn and will be of great value because , of bringing before those who came eafUr as matter that otherwise would not lie known though of great interest to our people. r ' The best in 27 States." : Capt.

"I want you to tell the people," he said to us that I "have attended lairs In twenty ' seven States and this is at the. top notch of tbem all the best exhibits, the pret tiest ladies, and the most attractive in every way." He expressed his apprecla tiori of courteoies extended by the Fair officials and others and he seemed to linger - most lovingly on the way be was filled . with fish and oysters while here. .

' They ant intended - to carry off the water which stands along Jie rail in the litt'e groove eat by the flanges of the car wheels, lnsbnificant in appearance but which has been giving annoyance to the railroad people ever since the filling in of the atreet nearly level to the raila. TLe wheels throw water and sand in wet weatb r np to the working parts causing hot boxes, hence the need for the drains. Relics of the Revolutionary Periods. The cup and saucer in the curio depart ment, we observed, exhibited by Miss Saliie B. Haywood, of Raleigh i was used on the night of Gov. Caswell's first inauguration as first governor under the constitution of the United States. We see also a bell on exhibition by Col. J.D. Wbitford, which bell was used in ringing to notify the members of the legislature during there sessions in the palac. The bell was presented to Gov. Caswell by the legislature. This bell will be presented to the antieque society of the State through Mrs. Gov. Carr. Miss Haywood also bad a medallion representation of the lady refusing to take the money from Gen'l Natlianial Greene which she bud loaned for the Revolutionary cmse. No Other S at Has it. The beautiful spotted stone anions? the marbles, granite and other liuitdiiig stones in the Stale exhibit which nearly every visitor noticed with admiration was leop pardite. It takes its name from the dark spots which abound in it If any one wauts a plainer description than this we will tay that it is a "p .rpliorhytic rock with manganese stains, dendritic forms," then maybe they'll know more about it. Leopardite is a raie stone; there i3 only one place iu the Ui.itcd States in which it is found and that place is Mecklenburg ounty, N. C, and the deposit there, is as beoutilul as is funul in the world. All latbologieal societies get their speci mens from this source. The undeveloped wealth of North Carolina is great und not half opprerial) ed but the t.uy is not far distant whin it will be, and exhibition like the above will aid materially in luinuiii il ui.uiit through the knowledge ol the resources that W'll thus be diffused.

This dog is pro nounced the best headed, heaviest-boned and largest St. Barnard in the South to day, and he bad for his dam the famous Chicago winner, I, acknowledged the grandest American bred female in the United States. At twelve months old he stood 83 inches U the shoulder and weigh ed ITS pounds and.basnot yet attained his full growth. All ihe dogs shown were fine specimens of the various good breeds and whether a a person was a lover of the dog family or not a view of them would be pleasing and instructive and to sportsmen and dog fanciers a visit to the kennets was a source of positive delight. .

In the crypt like aisles of the Dismil Sw.ioip all was stark, silent and lifeless Not a pipe from a partridge nor a chirp from a spur- low disturbed the perfect biliernution; unt a yellow jasmine or redbud opened its calyx to the raw atmosphere. t New Bjrne the mellow whistlo of a blue bird greeted the newcomer, and blossoms of blue myrtle btspangled the glossy foliage which clustered by the stone walls. The sky was blue and devoid of a brumal cast. The air felt soft and warm, and truckers were loun I basily engaged in putting in their peas Hud potatoes for the initial crop. sjJmc wcre sb i u i in r rly cabbage and spinach to New York.' At this scisou of the year flurries of snow will come in .Norfolk, aud the pre vailing atmosphere is grav: but at New Bcnie, mocking birds and thrushes war ble in the hedges, yellow hammers and robins Hit from tree to tree, crowds ol ild lirl I lurks rise from the standing stalks ol corn, und the irreut nitrated woodpecker makes the forest rewound with the impacts ol h'S bill. Such de lectable c millions result from a simple dilTeronic of two degrees of latitude which gives New Heme truckers an ad vantage ot ten days over their Northern competitors, und by so iniicli makes tlicin the gainers. I.atu in November 200 varieties of r?e. fold their petals for a six week's respite from a peretiuial bloouiiiiir, but persistent litih liu.ls, tweaked aud defonce I by morning frosts, limit; on until Christmas. The clusierin white blossoms of the Japan plum keep them quiet company, together with the creamy Idoonis and purple fiuit ot the Spanish bayonet, which so much resembles okr i pods in shape and size, though not in color. Alter Ciiristuia it is dead winter lor three weeks, No presumptuous blossoni ven tures to iliMu.'ii tile res i fill hibernation of the H um except the purple winter vio leis w'licli never cease to urtold their constant petals, (iay gallants and cov maul' !'-i pluck the n lor tlieir tuition holes, c'lerishing tliein as souvenirs ol briglii r days. Ad winter lung they iiloo.ii, these irrepressible flowers, with out peroeptil'le intermission nestling close to tlio ground amidst a thick frnn dage of green leaves. You can find them on any warm day. Cold merely chills, out does not paralyze them. Once, alter a six days' freeze and supcrincuni bcut snow in the frigid January of 18W3, with the surface of the Neuse river skimmed wiht ice, they bloomed out bravely us soon as the temperature rose, as fresh and fragrant as before. In New Berne the winter :limale is sufficiently warm without leing enervat ing. Its average normal temperature is 44 degrees lor January, February and March. Snow tails are so rare as to be welcomed for their novelty. January, loiM, was nn exceptional month, it w phenomenal. Snow laid on the ground for five successive days, and one morning there was sleighing ! The oldest inhabi tant had never seen the like. Thereupon sleus auu runuers ot tue crudest construe tion were improvised. Cows were incon tinently stripped of their Lells to make a festive jiLgle on Ihe road. Everybody was ecstatic, nut tne sport was only lor a day; mud and slush supervened. In the previous winter of 1803 a single fall of less than an inch occurred. The current winter has been in keeping with previous records, and on January 10 the premoni tory oiuemra pipea tne advent or sDrinir as usual. At that date hyacinths and teatona are always seen in southern ex posures, followed on January 19 by nowering quince, orange, jasmine, a most fragrant shrub, spiren, jonquils and bridal wreath. Daffodils and narcissus appear the first week in February, and peach blossoms and dandelions by Fob ruary 15. We;ping willows come to leaf by February 27. By March 1 the sweet bay and dwirf magnolia are in bloom, their pare white or purplish pink blossoms showing in advance of the green foliage. Tulips and lilacs unfold n little later, and green pea vines ttand four inches high. Potatoes and almost all vegetables are planted in February, and by the beginning of April, radishes, peas aud asparagus are ready for shipment to tne isonu. In New Berne premises are many fruit trees, cherries, pears, apples, peaches. plums, apricots, tigs and pomegranates, and by the first ol April tbeir branches are all aglow with pink and white blos soms. - Wistaria then begins to bang out its white and purple cluster on the bal conies and verandahs; climbing some-tiraa to tne tops oi tue tallest oims. and the flowering almond illumines the terracers end parterres with its delicate floresenje, f mm that time on development is raDid. and flowering plants, trees, vines and shrubs vie with eaoh other in tbeir res plendent garnitare of color. Nearly all the shade trees which stud the lawns and overarch the. streets are florescent with pink, blue, red, yellow, . lilac.- straw color snd purple eolors, the polon'a, locnu, crepe myrue ana cninaoerrv uemc always prominent. Even the forests sre aglow, not only witn their own exuber ance' of .bloom, bat with the crimson, sea let and yellow blooms of jasmine, woodbine, noneysucue, trumpet flower. bamboo, sweet brier, sarsaparilla aud other vines, which clamber to their high, est tops and weigh them down, sometimes ppreadipg over a large area, of frondage. Reputable botanists declare that no less than 1800 varie.ies of trees, plants, shrubs and vines bloom In North Carolina in the months of March, April and Hay I . me winter touase ot tne toreats and gardens is perhaps even more enchanting to the Northern visitor because ' more w mr m n fn v w mm nws var i i ws novel, treryri-ens. not incluilini: coni fers, of no less than tlnrtv varieties, oaks und inn""" ins of s. vrral kinds, hollv. ! yoou, ban mid inonynui. ill brillisut "!''' rr;' 'tfi'- oli'- laur' ' :1M' , iirnr. coeroKet' iiisp. imniix 'i ines, ivv, cranberry, g.iii ikhvih l,:u. .puiigles. woodbine, li-ltrr foot, creeping w hurtle lierrv. honi vui k. . inu irern. rhodo jiicn'ir n. min i imriii, iii.m k oranie. nar-uipuni'ii.
