At the meeting just held the speaking for two days was principally on "watered stock." Most of the speakers thought the stock had been badly watered and many of the stockholders thought the speakers were watered to some extent. Anybody who has a share of stock or a proxy, from the Governor of the State down to a township constable without bond, can speak at a stockholder's meeting.

Theie were some good spseches made at this last meeting, fllaj. John (Jatun opened the ball with the first speech. He is a capital speaker; makes a plain argumentative matter-of-tact speech, hewing to the line and carrying convic tion to his audience. Uov. Jarvis is not so good in a deliberative body as before a popular assembly.

While his speeches have a tendency to animate, Gatlin's will put people to thinking. Jos. B. Bachelor is a fluent, eloquent speaker, but when will he get to the point? Col. L.

W. Humphrey makes a good, sensible railroad speech, has a good share of repartee at his command, which he can readily apply, especially when Mr. Bachelor says "talk louder." F. H. Busbee has a beautiful flow of language, is quick to seize tbe weak points of his opponent, and in all makes a happy speech.

In contrast with him, Judge haircloth, while he makes a sound, sensible talk, without any waste words, seems to be endeavoring to over come some tremendous task. Col. J. L. Morehead is a man of few words but he talks sense.

As for our home gentlemen, Messrs. M. DeW. Stevenson, Clement Manly and Washington Bryan did the most of the speechifying and they combined the elements of good judgment, sound sense, eloquence and "grit. We were anxious to hear the Hon.

C. C. Clark on the subject of leasing the road. He has always opposed a lease and no doubt can give as strong reasons for his course as any stockholder of the company. We wished to hear the question discussed upon its merits, and we kuow of no one better prepared to dis cuss the negative side of the question than he.

At the next meeting we hope the question of watered stock will have been settled and some more definite and conclusive action be had as to a final disposition of the road. Died, In this city on Sunday night, July 10, of malarial fever, Mary Maria, infant daughter of J. P. C. and Mary Maria Davis, at the age of 4 months and a days.

At the residence of Mr. Anson G. Wallace, in this city, on the 2d of typhoid malarial, Mr. John B. Grace, of Portsmouth, aged 22 years.

Mr. Grace was one of the main hands employed in the cotton factory in this city, and was sick only eleven days. Near the village of Richlands, N. C. on the 23d of June, of cholera infantum, Isaac Brock Koonce, infant son of Calvin and Laura Koonce, aged 14 months and 19 days.

He staid but a short while winning the deathless love of his parents and then his little life went out and be passed up tnrougn tne pearly gateway into the realm of eternal glory where he awaits their coming. The community join in sympathy over the bereavement of the parents. Lately launched a trembling stranger, On the world wide boisterous flood Pierced with pain and tossed with danger, Gladly he returns to God. jittle mound just over yonder Where the night wind 6obs and weeps, Little feet at rest forever. Baby sleeps.

A Friend. In this city, Friday morning at :20 o'clock, of pleuro pneumonia, John D. Howard, aged 24 years, 8 months and 23 days. Mr. Howard was sick only for a short while and his untimely death is regretted by the entire community.

He was actively engaged in the mercantile business and was a man ot mucn vim and energy; in his business he was a de cided success, he was always ready to take part in anything that tended to enhance the prosperity or develop the resources of our city. He was a member of theMethodist church, consistent, kind and affable in his manner and had that nobility of soul that is found only the true man. Straightrorward in all his business transactions, decided in his views of all matters of interest to the community, and when once satis fied that he was right, nothing could bend his mild, though firm, determina tion. In all, he was one of our live, energetic, young business men, who are so much needed in our city. His loss is irreparable to this commu nity and will be keenly felt by all who knew him.

ne leaves a wiieio mourn his loss, besides a large circle of relatives and friends. Only a few short months ago wa were at his wedding reception, to-day we will attend his furneral. We extend to the bereaved relatives the sympathy of the entire community. Sale or Lease Which 1 EwroK Journal Your sugges tion that the railroad snouia De sold and the money distributed inong the stockholders is not a new idea, neither is it one unworthy of serious consideration. But it must be admitted that there are both difficulties and objections to this course, and the interested public have a ngiu to expect that they will not be concealed, lhat the railroad if exposed to sale, either public or private, will bring half a mil lion dollars, may or may not ne true but if you sell to the highest bidder, can you tell or even conjecture wno tne purchaser will be, and in what interest or against what interest he will operate it It is well known that some of the corporations that have shown a wish to possess themselves oi mis vaiuaDie property, have no interest in common with us and mean no goou lo us.

ian the individual who you say is ready to purchase it, pay as much for it for the purpose of operating it as these hostile corporations can to shut it up and remove the competition and checks which would be the result of its efficient man agement i These are grave questions, and an intelligent discussion of them by a journal which aspires to lead public action and thought, cannot fail in good results. Again, in discussing this question the rights of the construction bondholders should not be put out of sight. The State's stock is mortgaged to them for a sum largely in excess of its value. If the State were to donate this stock, the beneficiary would take it with this burden it is not, however, by any means, pertain that the same result to the purchase would follow a sale. If the sale is fair and for a full price, it is asserted by some of the ablest lawyers in New Berne, that the purchaser would take it divested of all leins aud the bondholders would be driven to the money going to the State.

How this may be. we do not assume to say. but we think it clear to have this effect and without this effect no one would buy the State's interest the. sale would have to be for the largest amount possible to be obtained. No sale to the best interest of this section.

No sale whose chief consideration would be the policy to be adopted to the grantee. ba.sed upon something ulterior. No in fact except for money and the greatest amount of money, would be just to these bondholders, if indeed binding upon them. Are we then ready for a sale to I he highest bidder, whether that biddei be the Uiehmond and Danville Railroad, the Wilmington and Weldon Railroad or Mr. John IJohinson and the eomp.icated system of railroads which he dominates 'i It should be remembered too that a sale of the Stale interest cannot be made without authority of the Legislature, and it is not certain that can be obtained, in any event not before 1SS5, and we ask in all candor is it wise to allow ourselves to he diverted from the present opportunity to lease the road Uu advantageous terms by the sug-I gestiou of a sale, especially in view of these difficulties and objections X.

A large crowd was there on Thursday last and still they go. None but a good and experienced hotelist knows how to manage such a crowd Dr. Blacknall is always equal to the oc casion. While transient guests re ccived the same attention of regular boarders, he does not allow the rush to inconvenience the latter. The fact is he has a big house and the capacity to run a hotel.

A good band of music is engaged, the sail boats are in fine trim and everything lovely. Morehead is bound'to grow in popularity as a sum mer resort, and Dr. Blacknall Is sus taining his reputation handsomely. The North State Improvement Co. This is the new name for the syndi cate which bought the (Jape rear and Yadkin Valley Railroad.

A Soavenler of tbe War. We have a "war relic," in the shape of order, No. 26, headquarters department of the Trans-Mississippi, Shreveport, La July 2d, 1863, published by command of Lt. General E. Kirby Smith." The order announces the proceedings and findings of a general court-martial.

One of the offenders was W. G. Dotson. who stole a shirt, the property of William D. Murray, both men being members of Co.

17th Texas consolidated Regiment. The sentence imposed was: "The said private Dotson to ride a mule, to be seated on the mule face backward, feet tied under the belly of the mule, to be led in front of the whole brigade drawn up in line of battle; on his hat is to be fastened a board, ancT on it -written, in large letters, the word "Thief." The drummers and buglers are to follow him, making all sorts of discord with their instruments. News and Observer. Broke Jail. John Sugg, a prisoner confined in jail here, having been convicted of highway robbery and sentenced to forty years in the penitentiary, from which he appealed to the Supreme Court, broke jail Wednesday evening in the broad day-light and walked oa.

He effected his escape by filing one of the grates of the window in two and crawled out. He was met by one of the sheriff's deputies up town who dared not tackle him, but hastened to the jail to inform the jailor of the escape. Phillip Wiggins, with a posse, started in pursuit of him, but up to this writing nothing has been heard of him. This thing of allowing prisoners to escape is becoming rather to common to be funny. Already-one murderer is at large by having escaped from the jail here not more than six months ago, now another for highway robbery is gone, somebody snouia De neld res ponsible.

Play and Work. A man who devotes a good deal of his leisure moments in playing games is not always to be considered the best player, because sometimes the exercises of the game or the theory connected with it bears a great similarity to that used by the horny-handed son of toil in his daily labor. This was demonstrated at Morehead City durmg tbe stock holders' meeting when a farmer from Falling Creek, Lenoir county a member of the Legislature and of the Sporting Club walked into the ten-pin alley and the first ball he rolled being in the first game he had ever rolled he made a ten strike. This was followed up by a "spare," then another strike, when his opponent exclaimed, "You deceived me! You said you had never rolled a ball before!" "Upon my word, said he, "I never rolled a game in my life. But I tell you, I am used to running straight corn rows, and anybody that can lay off a straight corn row can roll a straight ball, and if you win roil em straignt you can knock down those pins." Prof.

Johnson's Report. At a meeting of the Board of Trustees of the New Berne Academy held on Tuesday Prof. Johnson submitted his annual report and tendered his resigna tion. The report shows tne numDer oi pupils enrolled during the year to foot up S39 263 males and 274 females. During the year two males were suspended for tardiness and three for misconduct.

No. restored of those suspended, five. The report also shows that 80 per cent, of the school population were in attendance during the session, which is an extraordinary good showing. We believe the attendance at Goldsboro was 60 per cent. The Professor left on the steamer Shenandoahfor for a trip to New York, which will be extended to Martha Vineyard for recreation and business connected with his profession.

He car ries the esteem of all our citizens and the love and respect of the children who have been under his cave during the year. Land Lubbers' Sail. On Thursday last as the sharpie Jessie Douglass, with a dozen old fashioned "land lubbers" who were out enjoying a sail, was rounding the point off Fort Macon she ran on a snag which went through her bottom causing the water to gush in and rapidly fill her. To be serious, the party were really frightened, and well they might have been, as Capt. Oaksmith informs us that no living man can swim ashore at that point on account of the whirling under current.

After they were safely landed at Morehead, however, many amusing stories were told on individuals of the party. The Sunny Soutli was just ahead of the Jeaxie Duuyhiss, and when the water began to pour iuto the latter boat, and her passengers saw the danger they were in, the voice of a State Senator was heard pealing forth the cry us. we are A doctor on board would have Riven a thousand dollars for just one foot of land: an old farmer caught up a baa of sand, used as ballast, hugged it to his breat, and was going overboard thinking he had a life preserver; a young school teacher, who was lying in the lottom of the boat seasick was suddenly cured and started up the mast with the ninibleness of a cat Miuirrel: a member of the new syndicate, said to be the backbone of the Kinston members, calmly surveyed the situation and prepared to leap into the sea- Of course those who tell these stories were perfectly calm themselves not the least excited but other amusements were more desirable during the remainder of their stay at Morehead. The farmer explains that he had the good sense to kuow that by throwing the sand overboard the boat would be lightned and be that much louder sinking. The Sunng South came to their rescue and probably saved some lives.

W. J. Crumpler is to return to Paatego, so says Madam Rumor.

The President of Hamilton Female College is a poet, as this, written in the Album of one of our North Carolina girls will testify: 1 were but a younger poet I'd write a song, aad here I'd throw it; I'd fill it full of Cupid's lances That whea they met your loving glances Tour heart would flutter pit-a-pat While wondering what dear friend wrote that. I'd then my answer want te know, I 'm sure you would not tell me na Swansboro Item.

The loafers spoken of some time ago hare all gone to work even the President has gone to plowing, and the Secretary is pulling the hoe, so we hare a working crowd now, all trying to get done work first. R.

H. Jones beats he is done his corn and has a fine crop. The rest of the farmers around here are somewhat behind, but are all moving ahead finely. We hare some amusements in town some times, such as seven up and pitch, but a few days ago our seven up teacher got mad and because some of his schol-lars beat him, tore all the books to pieces and' we will have to petition for a new teacher and a new set of books before we can go to school again. Some school 'teachers will get mad when their scbol- lars get ahead or 'em, but 1 don think they ought to.

Mr. Bussell has about finished digging his Irish potatoes and has put sweet potatoes in the place of them all except about half an acre, which be will plant in Irish potatoes for a late crop. He has a piece of corn one-half of which is not manured, the other half he put a small spot in each hill, and the difference is surprising-. The fish rows are 23 inches taller than the other and looks SO per cent, better. He says he will know how to do next time.

Our crops here are all moderately good, but I learn are much better in Carteret county from Broad Creek to Cedar Point, as to. corn and potatoes, and mellons much better. Dr. J. W.

Sanders has one of the finest patches in the county, so said. I have not seen it but am going over in that section next week and visit the farms all around. Jesse Watson says he has Irish potatoes weighing 84 ounces. That beats any we have in Swansboro. We have plenty of fish, and the men are getting ready for the fall.

Capt. Heady has just finished a new seine and wishes it un-understood that he will be on hand at all times with plenty ef fish. So does George Littleton, who also has just finished a new seine. Jonathan Watson, on Bogue Sound, is a good fisherman he has somewhat of a novel way of fishing too, he uses his ox and cart in place of a boat, puts his net on his cart and drives ox and cart around the fish, that is he runs his net off of his cart, then hauling them ashore throws his net on the cart, drives out on shore aud spreads his net as he goes. He sells his fish.

On motion of Washington cry an, the meeting adjourned until five o'clock. A large number of stockholders are present. LATER.

Met according to adjournment. Washington Bryan stated that he had learned that the committee to verify proxies had not completed their work and suggested further time. F. B. Loftin called the attention of the chair to a resolution passed at the last annual meeting providing that the committee to verify proxies should meet before the annual meeting and attend to that duty and asked that the chairman of the committee come for ward and state why they had not per formed it.

M. L. W. Stevenson moved that a committee be appointed to wait on the committee and ascertain when they would be ready to report. Adopted.

Jn. D. w. Stevenson, B. Lofton and L.

The motion was seconded by Governor C. Wooten raised the point of order that the motion could not be en' tertained, as the meeting was not yet organized. The chair decided that tne point was well taken. J. J.

Wolfenden moved to adjourn Until to-morrow morning at eight o'clock. C. C. Clark raised the point that tbe meeting could not adjourn under the rulings of the chair. Motions multiplied rapidly at this point, causing some confusion; finally a motion to take a recess until to-morrow morning at nine o'clock was carried without opposition.

Many regard Gov. Jarvis' action in seconding the motion to adjourn until October as an indication that he is dead set against a lease. Julius A. Gray, of the Yadkin Valley, is here for tae purpose of making a proposition to unless he cast have an understancV.ag with the new syndicate which seems to have the inside track.

This motion provoked a long discussion, participated in by Messrs. Gatlin, Humphrey, Busbee, Manly, Gov. Jarvis, Bachelor, Morehead, J. A. Bryan, Oaksmith, Stevenson and others.

Messrs. Gatlin, Humphrey and others argued Jhat the report of the committee on proxies was final. Gov. Jarvis, Messrs. Busbee, Bachelor and others argued that the stockholders had a right to consider it.

The "watered stock" gas was about exhausted in the morning meeting. Upon reassembling the committee on proxies submitted two reports, one signed by F. C. Roberts and Geo. Dees, which recommended that the stock known as the Midland shares, represented by J.

C. Wooten as proxy, should not be allowed any vote; the other, signed by L. J. Moore, per Clement Manly, and J. C.

Kennedy, recommended that J. C. Wooten be allowed to cast 835 votes for said stock. After several ballots, motions, and points of order, the latter re port was adopted, Messrs. J.

L. More! bead and J. B. Bachelor protesting. Reports of officers of the company were read and received.

Met persuant to adjournment. Judge Faircloth moved to take the sense of the meeting upon the proposition made by the Eastern N. C. Railroad Company. A discussion arose from this motion which brought Gov.

Jarvis forward with a two hours' speech. He discussed the proposition offered by the Eastern N. C. Itailroad Company and desired to make a proposition to them. Said he: My proposition is this: If the E.

N. C. R. R. Co.

will amend their proposition in this particular, that they will pay $30,000 a year rental for the A. N. C. R. R.

(for it takes about that sum to pay the interest, keep up the organization of the present company, and to pay taxes), and after paying all expenses of operating the road, then pf themselves 6 rer cent interest on the money they put nto it, and the balance of the surp'us they will distribute among the private stockholders of the A N. C. R. R. I will take my bat and go home.

They are the men who built the road and put the money into it. The Governor further said that he would put the State's proxy and Directors in the adjoarned meeting without instructions; to act upon their best judgment. On motion a committee of five stockholders was appointed to consider the propositions to lease, and the meeting adjourned to meet at Morehead City on the last Thursday in July. No change was made in the appointment of the State's proxy and Directors. Stonewall Items Mr.

The County Commissioners passed an order on Monday for the purchase of the lot which they had leased con ditionally from the Trustees of the New Berne Academy, on which they are erecting a court houses The Trustees intend, we hope, to use the money ob tained -from this source in erecting a building, as it takes more than the interest realized from it to pay the rent of a building that is not at all suited for teaching in. If the citizens will only add to it about three thousand dollars we can have a building which the peo ple will feel proud of. JC.

Many patrons of the school were present, and highly pleased with the progress made bjsthe children. We regret that the exhibition on account of the extreme hot -weather and other causes bad to be dispensed with, not that there is so much real merit in an exhibition, or closing exercises, but it never fails to make a favorable impression a school when properly conducted.

Peetaf Orders. The new law in relation to P. O.

The office here has not yet received the "Postal note." A Turkey Cobler. A subscriber at Richlands writes us a history of a turkev gobler, one of whose peculiarities is that upon the death of his mate he took charge of its brood of twelve young turkeys and raised them. We think the action of the eobler is suggestive to his owner who is a widower, instead of looking fur another helpmate, he should take hold and perform the domestic work with his own hands.

Mr. Editor: We noticed while on a recent visit to Morehead, quite a number of new sail boats, and among them some new sharpies. This strange craft is the outcome of a revolution of ideas as regards tbe requisites of speed in a sailing model.

Heretofore, deep, sharp bottoms, heavy displacement, with the center of gravity low down in tbe water so as to enable the craft to carry a heavy press of canvas, with easy lines or clearance in the after part er stern, and medium sharp bows or entrances were deemed the requisites of speed. The sharpie model is the reverse, very light displacement, shallow bottoms, great length and very flat on the bottom or floor, which enables them to carry a very large area of canvass; they cannot be said to go through the wateri but to go over it. Their speed is astonishing, and in a sea way they seem endowed with life. We went over the bar in Capt. Piver's new sharpie with a very pleasant party of ladies and gentlemen, several of them from La Grange; the wind was at South West; we spread her wings and fairly flew over the water, and in a very short time we were dancing upon the tops of tbe rollers.

We were much pleased with the sea going qualities of the boat, 'and have changed our opinion as regards their safety in heavy stormy weather. We think under proper management, that they are the safest boat ever built; and the only improvement that can be made in them is to hx in them air tight tanks, so that in the event of a capsize or being swamped with a breaker, that the danger of drowning would be lessened. Capt. Piver is a very pleasant and gentlemanly commander and thoroughly understands handling a boat, and we heartily commend him to all who visit the sea coast. Old Salt.
