No entertainment of the season excelled the one last night by oar visitors from Wilmington In variety and in the genu ine enjoyment it afforded every one pres ent.

Pearsall called upon the chief clerk of the supervising architect of ihe govern ment public buildings for direct and positive information about the New Bcroe building in which we are all so much interested, that he might let N"w Bernians know reliably what to expect Mr. Kepper, the gentleman interviewed, a Tier consideration, told Mr. Pearsall, he could assure the New Berne people that the building was to be begun by the first of August, certainly not later, and possibly sooner than that. Mr. Pearsall viewed the plans of the building and is well pleased with them. It is to be a three-story brick building without basement and fronting the nar row way towards Pollock street. There will be one entrance at the omer of Pollock and Craven Btreets, and another on Craven street. The first floor will be devoted exclu sively to the post-office, the second floor will have the court room and the rooms of the officers of the court marshal, clerk, district attorney and judge, and the third floor will be devoted to the jury rooms and custom bouse.

In three minutes after the notice was prut up 238 looms wore shut down and all the weavers stopped work. Some, however, finished up the unfinished '.'cats" in their looms. The directors claim that even after the reduction they will be paying as high wages as the best mills and higher than the average. As an answer the operatives have got up and published a card giving figures showing higher rates paid for similar work at other North Carolina mills. The directors gave the committee from the weavers and carders a hearing, but no agreement was reached and the hands still refuse to go to work. A Day ef Pleasure at Havelock. WOtiave a communication from Have lock telling of a day, (be 16th inst., passed very pleasantly by the good people of the Methodist Sunday-school at thai place: The pleasure of the day consisted of indoor exercises and out door sports. There was music . by the choir, speeches by the small boy ana girls, and an ad dress to both the young and old people by Rev. Mr. Greening, the pastor of the church. The exercises closed with song, After this a plentiful dinner was served, and after dinner the young ladies and gentlemen passed the evening away ait ting under the shade of the trees or riding to and fro, while the boys played ball, girls Jumped the rope, etc. All had a good time. . - Visitors from Newport andRlverdaM we're plentiful.

The State Press Association was again very lortunate in having met in so de lightful a little city as Morganton, "The Gem of the Upper Catawba Valley." Morganton i situated on the W. N. C. Railroad, about rixty mil. .-.i-t of Aslie ville and in one .l lite most captivating and promising locations in I lie western part of the State. It wus our pleasure lu he the guet of Dr. Jno. Toll, a most estimatable gentle man and one of the leading men ot the place. The residence of Mr. Tull is on a commanding elevation with a Urge lawn shaded by trees of rich foliage, shrubbery and evergreens. The lu-ter, euonymus, so very well known in New Berne for its abuudance, predominates. The street fronting the bouse has recently been McAdamized, largely through the influ ence of Mr. Tull. The rock or cobble is from a farm of his on the side of the mountain that had been quarried years ago by gold seekers, and even now parti cles of the yellow niet'il can be seen glit tering on Morganton's highways street1 of gold. The home of Mr. Tull is a happy one, evincing all the influences of a refined anil culture.'! people. Ne v Bornians will lie glad to know that Mr. Tull is a native ol our city. He married a Philadelphia lady, whom is a relative of the Honored Col. McCluro, editor ot -the Philadelphia Times. The family is blessed with five exceedingly bright ami interesting child ren Miss Julia, a beautiful and charm ing young lady, and Masters Joe, John, Isnau and little flaxen haired Charlie with his flowing ringlets of curls. MORGANTON. Morganton is the county seat of Ilurk county which was forme 1 in 1777 from Rowan, and was named after Gov. Thos. Burke, and not in honor to the English statesman as has been popularly sup posed. The county lies just under the shadow of the Blue Ridge mountains, 1.264 feet above tide wwUt. aa4 baa a population of 15,000. Its area is 400 square miles and abounds in numerous well cultivated farms. The timber resources are good, and the water courses furnish the finest of power that could be easily utilized for manufacturing, building asd other pur poses. PHODCCTS OK THE SOU,. Among the products of the soil that does well are tobacco, grain, fruits, grass es, etc. Minerals end ores abound in many places in the country and uwait only development by men of experience and capital. PUBLIC SPIRITED. ..fc The town has considerable manufactur ing, and as an inducement to others, has a standing offer to all new enterprises, ex empting them from taxation for the first five years where $5,000, or more is inves ted. There is a good bank, schools, churches Baptist, Presbyterian, Metho dist and Episcopalian. A big fire destroy ed ono of the hotels a few months ago, but the Mountain Hotel still remaies. Mr. J. M. Kincaid, the clever proprietor, did all he could to mako it pleasant for "ye edi tors." The attests of Morganton are far supe rior to those ot the average town and are sure to'impress strangers. Fiom the ruins of the fire mentioned above there are now numbers of brick stores hat would do credit to a much larger city. PUBLIC INSTITUTIONS. Morganton has two State institutions that she may well be proud of the Hos pital and Deaf and Dumb Institute. The former is of native brick and is the largest building in North Carolina, having a frontage of 818 feet as against 723 for the Capitol at Washington. It takes a fall hour to walk around on the outside of this mammouth structure. It stands a lasting monument to the humanity of our State. As to the condition in which the hospital is kept, it looks as though it would be an utter impossibility for it to be improved upon. Dr. Murphy, the superintendent impresses you as a man of the highest type of character and is thoroughly conversant in all the branches of its management. The estimated cost of the hospital is one half million dollars, and at that it is pronounced to have been economically construe ted. The Deaf and Dumb Institute is another magnificent brick building not yet qnite completed, It stands upon a beautiful site .and com mands probably the finest view of any point near Morganton. Prof. E. McK. Goodwin is the able superintendent, and be is fully awake to the importance of the position. It will be ready for occupancy about the first of September.

Other peaks that are io view are Pinnacle of the Blue Ridge, Table Rock, Short Off, Hawk's Bill. Stowing Rock Gap. Grandfather, Ilibrlten and Propst'i Knob. Knjoysble drives are sometimes taken by pirties to these wild and rugged cliffs and mountain passes occupying days and even weeks along niauntain aides and gushing waters. The city of Morganton alone is a'gern of beauty, referring especially to the resiileut portion. Nearly all these residences over look some shadrd knoll with spacious lawns to set oil' their architectural appear mice. The usu'il crimp of a city is thus avoided . The drive-ways are more than beautiful tbey are anbliine, winding around verdant hillside aud over rippling streams and gurgliug water falls.

Olive makes a remarkably good showing on a little patch of Irish potatoes only a quarter of an acre which he plunteil at his home. The cinn iter of an acre gave him a yield of 83 barrels and after paying all expenses ol the crop Mr. Jurney found he had 76 85 cents lef: as net profit. This yiel l is at the lute of 132 barrels to the acre aud the profit at the rate of $307.4(1 per acre. For a short crop season this report shows remarkably well. Of course the right kind of land and intelligent culture had much to do with Mr. Juniey's suc cess but he also lays a good share of the credit to the special potato fertilizer man ufactured by Messrs. K. H. & J. A. Meadows of this city, anil to the good quality ol the seed potatoes which he also obtained from the same firm. Although Mr. Juniey's trucking was on quite a .small scale, full statcments-of his ma lagement of "the crop, audjthe cost thereof, the kind of land it was on, &c, would make interesting reading, aud if he will take the trouble to send us such a statement we will publish with pleasure.

The unsettled and uncertain condiiion of politics in the Slate has resulted in a disposition, largely entertained by all three parlies, to bargain and scoop ottn i -with each other. The Democrats will only give boot for members of the I,cgi- lalure in a lew doubtful counties. The discovery of the aiian hi-l plot in Washington, with which it is atteinpliil to implicate Coxey's army, is thought to lie but the lusginning of trouble there ami other money centres.
