LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.

WATER MEETING SATURDAY NuGl,r
--On Saturday night, the citizens meet
ing called to discuss the Water question
was held at the Court house. IT being
an adjourned meeting, the old officers
w. T. Harrison, President, and w. S.
Forrest, Secretary, held over. The
meeting being organized and ready for
discussion, MIR. Lockhart arose and
challenged the opponents of water to
come forward in q spirit of manliness
and set forth their objections, or forever
after hold their peace. Jas. l.. BelOte,
City Collector, fearing an increase Of
business in that office, when the water
rates increased the city's Revenue,
having been understood to oppose the
water question, was called for. He arose
and said he was always open to convic-
ton, but being naturally an enquiring
disposition, he desired to hear the affir-
NATIVE side.
w. III. G. Ellis then addressed the
meeting on the advantages, benefits and
influence of water to any community
&. b. Duffield followed, and argued the
Dollar and Cent question of the issue,
and fully showed to the satisfaction of
every liberal and Investigating mind,
that the saving on insurance alone,
would take every dollar of the Stock
asked. Col. Sangster followed and in his
peculiar, powerful and impressive style,
showed water was not dry subject, his
argument was too strong for Belote's
opposition, and he, Belote admitted
that he was converted to egood cause.
A vote was put 10 the House for those
In favor of it, TO say so, it wasSunani-
NOUS, not one dissenting voice being
heard against Water The meeting was

THE ALBEMARLE AND CHESAPEAKE
CANAL.--This route to Newbern is be-
coming exceedingly popular, from the
fact that it is the most direct and speedi-

doing well, aud bring in large freights
of produce upon their arrival. A
large amount of cotton, grain and naval
stores, with other produce, is to come
forward, which has been held back here

that this demand is supplied, the pro-
