At this rate he would have realized from one acre, which, at fifty per gallon, would have been worth or about fifty per cent more than could have been realized from cotton. Salisbury Col.

New The differ- of opinion existing between Pamlico and Craven counties as to the amount Pamlico owed Craven as her proportion of debt when the former was established, and about which the two counties have been contending in the courts for three years, has been adjusted by compromise.

Of course we called on these gentlemen while iii Mr. is well known by many people in this section and during our pleasant chat with him made inquiries after many of his old friends here. By his strict in- and close application to business he has not only won the confidence of all who deal with him but has made considerable wealth. He is President of the Cotton Exchange and his ability has caused him to hold other of honor in the city. Both he and his clever boot keeper Mr. Latham, who is a brother of our late beloved Rev.

They have worked hard for it and built up one of the best wholesale trades in the city. Eastern North Carolina does its share with them. Many other interesting things could be written about Norfolk, her splendid hotels, handsome Y. M. C.

However, we want to say just a word about Berkley, before the subject entirely. Our leisure time on the trip was spent with a relative there and for- mer impressions that we had en- about the place were changed to something entirely different. Our ideas of it had been that was only a lit- Norfolk suburb, separated from the city by the river, where only a mere handful of people lived. Imagine one's surprise when it was found out that more than people live over there, that Berkley is a little city all to itself, having street cars, telephone ex- change, electric lights, two news- papers, one of them daily, half dozen or more handsome church- es, and a good business is done there. Like Greenville, though, it needs hotels worthy of the place, and the streets need proving. The Slate Democratic Executive Committee had a lull and meeting in Raleigh on 15th inst.

The Legislature has the Board of County Commissioners to construct the dam, I have talked with the county Treasurer and he says there is plenty of money on hand to do the work at any time, so there is no reason why the should wait longer unless they just want to be contrary about it. The people pay the taxes and have a right to ask for the dam when it is their money which pays for it.

Bur- went there intending to go to Kinston on the evening train, and expecting a party whom he wished to see to come in on the train upon which he was to depart he did not get aboard at once, but waited until the passengers got off to see if the for whom he was looking was among them. While standing there the signal to start was given and he walked to the steps just as the train was moving off. He caught hold of the railing on each side of the steps and was pulling up when several colored boys came rush- off the oar and run right over breaking loose one of his hands from the railing and knocking him so near down as to leave hang by the other hand. By this time train was gaining speed so that be could not recover his footing, and fearing to turn loose the railing lest he should be dashed under the car by the motion of the train was drag- along for more than a car length. Fortunately two men were standing near the track a short distance below the depot and seeing Mr. Burgess hanging to the railing rushed and snatched him from his Ions position as the train passed them In relating circumstances to the reporter Mr. Burgess said that never in bis life he experienced such a feeling as when be was hang- to the railing of oar. He felt every moment like he was being drawn under the moving train knew from the forward motion that if bis bold gave way he would be thrown under it.
