The Party Press.

We have been familiar with the party press OF
North Carolina ever since 1874, and have watched
closely the political actions and sentiments OF
,rominent men, but never have we seen In all
that time SO much vituperation, scurrillty, abuse
ond indecency manifested by its members as has
boan during the last twelve months In the
<,rroesional contest last summer and the pres
ont canvass thus far, there has been more bitter
moss of feeling, more black guardism and less re-
rord for truth and decency exhibited by those
who should be the conservators of public taste
and public morals, than has ever come within our
observation before. Distinguished citizens oc-
cupying high places are spoken of the New
York Police Gazette would speak of bruisers,
nick pockets and other tancy characters, and pri-
vate character and public integrity serve alike as
food for the blood hounds to feed upon. The fact
is that, unless outraged public frown down this
growing evil there is telling what the end will
he. 1t certainly requires extraordinary nerve, at
this time for any man who has any selfrespect
70 attempt to manage political newspaper, how
ever well he may be qualified for the position.
We are glad to be able to assert conscientious.
1v that there are some honorable exceptions to
the class here alluded to, but they like angels
visits. few and far between So glaring has this
evil become that no sensible man now looks to
the political press for facts relative to political
matters knowing that their anxiety to party,
in the majority of instances, causes prejudice
which renders Justice an enemy, at their hands,
impossible
It is only in the power of the masses, who fur
nish the sinews of war" for the support of the
party press and other political institutions, to
correct this evil

Press.
We are very willing that tie editor of the Press
should call us disorganizer; but we desire sim
ply to remind the public that the writer Of the
above lines censuring u.s. was jealous advocate
of ad Ual0rem when Mr. Bledsoe first Introduced
it. as the flies Of the Giraffe will abundanty prove.
Mr. Bedsoe is consistent because he has not
abandoned his ad ratOren views, while the editor
:of the Press shows his Inconsistency by being on
both sides of that question in less than two years
Our own views on this issue, which never
have been and never will be changed, have been
frankly expressed
We admire the course of Mr.. Bledsoe in refu-
sing to oppose an issue of which he Is the repu-
ted author satisfy the dictation of his party but
we do not admire the course of the editor of the
Press or of any one else who yields submissve
" to the behests of party to denounce meas
ures which they have but a few months before
zealously advocated. If party organization can
only be kept up and partizans can only maintain
their good standing such by ignoring princi-
pies and conscientious convictions. we want none
of it. Really considering the age of the Press
and the limited amount of service which it has rem
dered to the democratic party, we think it is rath
er presumptuous in reading out old veterans.

The Fayetteville Courier calling attention to
the facilities for pleasure and comfort at Beaufort
and Carolina City, says:
Visitors to Beaufort Harbor this summer will
find that ample arrangements have been made for
their accommodation by the Proprietors of the
Hotels, both at Beaufort and Carolina City. The
Atlantc House. Pender &. Page Proprietors, was
opened last season. since then, additional
number of rooms have been added to it, with bath
ing houses sufficiently large to swim in.
The Carolina City Hotel has changed hands,
w. p. Moore OF the CASTOR House, New bern, is
now Proprietor, and from his we'll known charac-
ter as caterer for the public, and that of his
superintendent Shpman, persons visiting his
house may rest assured that pains will be
spared to make them comfortable.
B. A. Ensly s. Co., have opened the Front Street
House Beaufort and have thoroughly re-htted
and re-furnished 1T.
There is more pleasant place to spend the
summer on the Atlantic seaboard than at Beaufort
Harbor. and parties contemplating leaving home
in search of pleasure pastime, cannot find bet
ter Hotels, better fishing or better company any
where. Cannot we build up watering place in

| FIRST RIDE OF TIE JAPANESE BY RAIL
WAY.-The ride of the Japanese across the 18th
mus of Panama, their first railway experience, is
described in letter in the n. Y. Journal Of Com
merce:
| Upon the starting of the train, the first the
japanese had ever seen, and the first cars they
had ever entered, the conductor put the train at
moderate speed, which gradually increased
till it shot forward like an arrow, climbing des-
cending, winding along the valleys. dashing
across the iron bridges OF the Chagres. high conf
cal hills, equalling small mountains. rising on
either hand, covered with trees and verdure to
their utmost SUBMITS, while numerous clusters of
the more miserable huts lined the way, crowded
with people of all hues-indolent, stupid, and
half cothed-whiIe the pigs and children sported
at the doors in company, and equally naked
The japanese could not suppress their admiration
at this new mode of conveyance and rate OF pro-
gress, SO unlike the nOrimOns of their own coun-
try, in which they were carried on the shoulders
of men, 1t was amusing to see the attempts OF
the artists to sketch scenes and objects when the
train was at the top of its speed and the poor ar
tst ignorant of the rate of motion. taking his eye
for one instant only from the object to his paper,
upon looking again found it had utterly vanished
giving place to others which had the same ap-
partition existence. At last they were obliged to
desist, and gave themselves up to the gratltica-
ton of sight-seeing only
