New Berne Should Have a Hospital.
Yesterday Dr. J. W. Duguid had three
cases to come under Ins observation
which shows the need for a hospital in
New Berne. The patients needed the at
tention given at such an institution, but
the only hospital here is for sailors and
they were not sea-faring men. The only
public place open to them, was the poor
house and they were not of the kind to go
there.
These oases of the kind are such as are
constantly coming under tho observation
of every physician in the city. The only
difference is one physician received more
in one day than often happens, but such
cases are frequent enough to need provis
ion made lor them. Again we say New
Berne needs and should have a hospital.
Who will move in working up the estab
lishing of ones.
Old Bern To New Bern.
Our readers will remember that the
late Professor Edward G. Daves interest
ed himself in many ways in promoting
kindly feeling and ictcr-change of court
esies between Ben in Switzerland, and
New IBern, mother and daughter. It
was partly at his suggestion that our
city adopted as its colors black and red,
those of the mother city. A new evi
dence of this continued interest comes to
us now. A friend writing from Bern a
short time ago to Prof. Daves says: "A
cordial letter from Hons, de Muralt,
President of the Municipal Council of
Bern, announces that at the last session
of the Cou ncil he proposed that Bern
should send to her 'daughter across the
sea the emblem of the tie which has been
Kirmed between them, and the proposi
tion was adopted with enthusiasm."
The writer adds:
"Now that the deel
ion has been made. I hope the carrying
it out will be prompt, and not in accord
with the traditional slowness which is
indicated by the old Bernese saying
'Only no haste,' which corresponds per
fectly with the solemn, deliberate move
ment of the bear.''
The bear is the heraldic animal of Bern
and is borne on its coat-of-arms and
shield. The animal is everywhere pre
sent in that city in life or in effigy, and,
indeed, is the old Suabian word (Bern, a
bear), from which the city takes its name.
The "emblem" mentioned will probab
ly be a banner of the Bernese colors, and
the coat-of-arms.

JONATHAN HAVENS DEAD.
This Aged and Respected Citizen Sud
denly Taken Away-Hls Character
and Career.
Again has the death Angel visited our
city and unexpectedly removed from our
midst one of our old and honored citi
zens, Mr. Jonathan Havem. He expired
betwoen nine and ton o'clock Sunday
night, August 5th. The funeral services
were held from his residence on East
Front street yesterday afternoon at five
o'clock, and were conducted by the Rev.
I j. A. Brnoot. The pall bearers were
Messrs. Graham Dives, Ch C. Clark,
W.P. Metts, T. A.Grm i, Tuo. H. Abott,
Joseph 15. Clark, Jiis. B. Chirk unci Jas.
W. Biddle.
For four or five d y- Mr Havens had
been troubled with indigestion, accompa
nied by some pain, though he keep
going about and was out on Sunday.
That night a little before nine o'clock
he was attacked by a fainting spell, from
which be slightly rallied. Two physic
inns were immediately sunimjned. Dr.
Primrose arrived shortly before he died,
but bis services could not avail, and by
the time Dr. Hughes ontered Mr. Havens
had breathed his last, hardly an hour's
time from the time the scrvere nttuck
commenced.
Mr. Haven's leaves a loving wife nee
Miss Mary Latham daughter of Mr. John
W. Latham, of Washington, a son Ed
ward who is now residing in the north
and a sister Miss Sarah Havens of Wash
ington. Mr. J. Havens was 73 yours of ugc.
He was born in Washington, entered mer
cantile life before attaining bis majority
and soon alter that went out to California-
He was one of the early emigrants to that
State, being among the argonauts of 1849,
and was among the first of those who
viewed the big trees of that State, an
other New Berne captain James Biruie
being the discoverer of them.
Mr. Havens resided about eight years
in California, and travelled considerably
both in North and South America, but
finally moved back to Washington and
married there in 1861. He served in the
Confederate army for awhile, his family
being at the time refagees in Greenville.
At the close of the war he made New
Berne his home and has lived here ever
since.
Mr. Havens was a mau whose true
worth was understood only by those who
knew him best. He was a mau such as
one seldom meets a man with very little
respect to rank. He was at home alike
with those in wealth or high position, or
with the Door and humble. He was fond
of children and when time permitted sel
dom passed one without notice.
He was a man also of literary tastes and
of no mean literary ability. He accumu
lated an exceptionally good historical
library, and possessed a wide fund of
accurate information in reference to the
country at large and of general affairs in
the world. He was a writer of ability
and of strong convictions. His last work
of tliis kind was a sharp criticism of the
Administration, in the Journal of Sun
day morning (the very day of his death)
for refusing to appoint E. J. Hale of this
State to a position sought on the alleged
ground that Mr. Hale's services to the
party were not commensurate with the
advantages of the position sought, and
then giving of the very same place to a
wealthy Republican, a brother-in-law of
Vice-President Morton.
Mr. Havens did much with bis pen for
tie development of this section. He
was for some years the secretary of the
New Berne Improvement Association
and while holding that position he col
lected the facts, and wrote a valuable
hundred page pamphlet on New Berne
and the Pamlico section of North Caro
lina. It is now out of print, but it is
well worthy of another edition.
One of the great improvements which
Mr. Havens longed to see accomplished,
and which he worked for was an inland
water-way from New York to Florida.
We believe tho scheme as he planned it
will some day become a reality.
Two years ago Mr. Havens delivered
the Confederate memorial address in this
city a fine effort. The previous year
he had delivered it iu Washington and it
was so well received that by request he
repeated the same address here. Ho was
down on any such an expression as "the
south thought she was right." He took
the position, nnequi vocally that "the
south was right" and did the subject full
justice.
We think that Mr. Havens' death was
entirely unexpected to every one but him
self. He seemed to have a premonition
that his end was nigh. When told of
the death of his friend, Prof. Edward
Graham Daves, last Thursday, he seem
ed startled at the news, and then remark
ed! "I shall not be long in following
him."
Every one who knew Mr. Havens re
grets his death. As ono of our leading
citizens commented of him truly, that
ke was a man of eccentricities, but of
friendly disposition, good heart, and as
honest, upright and honorable in all his
dealings as anyone Hew Berne possesses.
Peace to ms ashes.
This talk about a fight between Ran
som and Jarvia is all bosh. There Is no
fight between Ransom and Jarvia, but
there is a fight on Jarvis. The sooner
it is stopped the better, for Jarvis is go
ing to oe "overwneimingiy eiecwa," ana
nothing can prevent it. Charlotte News.
THE CRUISER RALEIGH.
Ordered for the Naval Reserves A
Grand Cruise Expected.
The cruiser Raleigh has been ordered
to South port for use of the Naval Reserves
on their aunual cruise. This action is,
for obvious reasons, liked better than if
the Detroit had I ecu selected.
The news is announced in telegraphic
dispatches which state that "Assistant
Secretary McAdoo returned to Washing
ton Saturday morning and t ok charge of
the Navy Department during the absence
of Secretary Herbert in Alabama. Mr.
McAdoo has been watching the evolutions
I the naval militia for the past two weeks
and is thoroughly enthusiastic on the sub
ject, as indicated by his first action on
returning, whoa he decided to order the
new government-built cruiser Raleigh to
take part in the evolutions of the North
Carolina Reserves at Southpoit, at the
mouth of Cape Fear river next week.
'The North Carolina Resnrves already
have the use of the monitor Nantucket,
which, under the recent act of Congress
will b ! loaned permanently to the State,
subject, however, to be returned-in case of
necessity to the United States.
'The dispatch of the Raleigh to South
port will enable North Carolinians to see
the new cruiser named in honor of the
capital of their State, and will afford
naval oflicers an opportunity to make a
trial of the vessel which is the first ship
for a score of years built entirely at a
Government Navy Yard."
Lieut. Commandor J. H. Barnard of
the second division writes to Lieut. Com
manding Clatk, of the New Berne Divis
ion, that be has just received a telegram
from Lieut. Commander Geo. Morton
who went on from Wilmington to Vash
ington, giving the news of the ordering
of the Raleigh to Southpoi t to afford the
Naval Reserves gun drill with the mod
em g.iiis. Tho telegram also slated
that the other equipments wanted by the
Reserves would be shipped them.
The Raleigh is tho latest of the new
ships. She is 300 feet on the water line,
42 feet beam and 18 feci draft; .3,183 is
her tonnage anil 10,000 her horso power.
She carries ten five-inch and one six-inch
rapid lire guns, eight six-pounders, four
one-pounders and two (iatlins. Her
speed is estimated at 19 knots, over 20
miles an hour.
This news ought to awake enthusiasm
among all the Naval Reserves in the State
and bring them out in full force. Such
an occasion as this will be a big affair for
them.
Appreciate the Confidence.
x esu'ruf.y cited anotlier instance in
which confidence in TnE Journal has
been tbroroughly established. Two sub
scriptious for the Daily were paid a year
m advance.
When the Journal first began publi
cation in New Berne twelve vcas ago. il
was almost an utter imposibility to get
any one to pay even a few months iu ad
vance. More especially was this difficulty
met with in procuiing subscribers for the
Weekly edition. They would invariably
say tinit they did not wish to pay more
than three months at a time, and very
rare as long as six months.
There was no such thing at all as pay
ing 85.00 in advance for the Daily, and
this lack of confidence could not be over
come until within the last few years.
Our books will now show a good per
centage of both Daily and Weekly sub;
scribers that show no hesitation whatever
in paying a year iu advance, and the pro-
portion is increasing all the time. tWe
only trust, that the Journal is worthy
the confidence bestowed.

The Raleigh correspondent of the Wil
mington Messenger gives the following:
Speaking ot the Republicans and the
fusion question, il is learuod that about
two weeks ago ex-Judge D. M. Furches
was on the "anti ' side, lut that his views
have undergone a great change, and that
he now t bin ks fusion a very good tlnng
Tho change occurred, it is said, some days
betore his nomination.
About 3 o'clock Saturday morning
there was a "head-on ' collision of freight
trains at Bolton, four miles from Weldon
on the Seaboard Air Line. One engine
lies sixty feet from the track. Both en
gines are literally torn to pieces and
many cars were wrecked. A side track
was built around the wreck and trains are
passing. A brakeman, Henry Williams,
colored, was badly injured his tnijih
la-ing crushed.
A special to the News-Observer-Chron-
ical from Rutherlordton says that John
Lewis, a negro about 40 years ot age
ana Known to oe a desperate character,
was shot and killed there Saturday by
Town Marshal John Bhotwell. Lewis was
under arrest and was trying to raise
money to pay bis fine, enforced for
drunkenness nnd disorderly conduct. He
got into a dispute with Shotwell and
advanced on him. Shotwell pulled his
pistol and shot Lewts through the side
and back three times, Lewis died within a
half hour. Shotwell ba surrendered to
the sheriff. This is the first man killed In
Rutherfordton since its corporate existence
of over a hundred years. . . ,
ANNUAL MEETING
Of the Roanoke Colony Memorial
Association.
The annual meeting of the blmreholdci
of this association will be held on the
1 Sth instant, the anniversary of the
birthday of Virginia Dare, at Nags
Head. Roanake Island is but it short
distance awav across the sound, and a
visit will be paid to the site of Old Fort
Raleigh. The association, which is now
incorporated, owns the cite of the fori
and a body of land adjoining, and at this
meeting a plan will be determined upon
as to what shall be done to prcsorveund
appropriately improve this scene of the
first settlement of the English speaking
rjee in America.
The coat of arms of Sir Walter Raleigh
has lieen adopted as the device for the
seal ot the Association, a fitting emblem.
It consists of a red shield charged with
silvor cheverons iu bend dexter; the crest
is a stag standing; the motto, the Latin
words amore et virtute. The stu" as a
crest seems specially appropriate when
we remember bow lileiitilul deer were On
the island when the Colonists went there,
and the pathetic story of how deer were
found by the party of ''Governor'' John
W bite tecding m the abandoned houses ot
the fifteen men left on the island by Sir
Richard Grenville the year previous.
The Ralcigh-News-Observcr-Chronicle
ives the above article. Alluding to it in
another place the Observer says:
"Referring to an article, printed in
.mother column, relative to the Roanoke
Colony Memorial Association, we make
hold lo suggest that the coat ot arms and
color tf Sir Walter Raleigh 1 adopted
our city as the coat of arms, motto
and colors of Hnleigh, anil for the device
on beeorporation seulofthei ity. What is
more appropriate than that the armorial
Searings of our city should be the same
as those of the distinguished man whose
honored name the city hears. The col
ors are red und white, and it so happens
that they are the same u those of the
Confederate Slates, Our city colors now
are red and yellow, but what is their sig-
nilication or association ': Raleigh's od
ors for Raleigh.''
The last extract is in exact accord with
a suggestion of ours, published iiiile
recently, in which we made bold
to givo an account of the interest we feci
we have in common with all North (.'arc,
linians in the capilol of the State what
colors can be as appropriate for the city
of Raleigh, as the colors of the man for
whom the place was named, and under
whose guardianship the first Anglo Saxon
colony in North Carolina and in America
waf planted. We hope to w. Sir Walter
Raleigh's colors become those of the city
of Raleigh; perpotuate not only bis hon
ored name but whatever else that can be
which pertains to him.
