AGRICULTURAL PROSPECTS o.
EASTERN NORTH CAROLINA.
From the Wilmington Journal

From the Wilmington Journal
A friend who has Just returned from a
business visit 10 some Of the eastern coun-
ties Of the State, has kindly furnished us
with few items of interest, which we feel as
sured will prove interesting 10 our readers.
In Gates, HEREFORD and ChOwan, which
were formerly large corn growing counties,
il was found that there was but little corn
on hand, and hardly sufficient planted TO
meet the home demand. The planters
were, however attending almost exclusively
10 cotton, with favorable prospects of sue
cess There is on hand in these counties
large quantities Of bacon. The Freedmen 5
Bureau, was managed with much satisfac-
ton, especially in Hereford.
In Perquamans and Pasquotank, corn was
still being cultivated as the chief staple Of
agriculture In these counties, especially
the former, negro labor was scarce. The
wheat crop in Perquamans was very good.
In Washington and Tyrrell there was
great scarcity of negro laborers, but great
activity, and determination was eyinced by
the white population tc engage in agricul-
tural labors. Shingles in large quantities,
and of superior quality were. being made, in
Washington especially. The town Of
Plymouth was literally in ruins
In Hyde as many acres have been planted
in corn as formerly, and there exists at this
time as iiattering prospects for as large a
crop as has ever been raised in this very
productive county There is at the present
time a large supply of bacon on hand. In
this county there is no Bureau organization,
and in consequence thereof there exists the
most kindly good feeling between the whites
and blacks, and the freedmen are laboring
with great faithfulness and contentment.
In most Of these coun.ies much DISPOSE
ton was exhibited TO seek a market in our
city, but vessels were very scarce and
freights extremely high.
Our friend speaks in the most exalted
terms Of the energy and spirit of the people
of that section, and the faithful and honest
earncstness with which they have accepted
the situation" and gone to work TO restore
the crippled prosperity Of their section and
State The noble efforts of these people
will 60 far TO counteract the obstruction
cast in the way of reconciliation by the Re
construction Committee, and the mechanics,
merchants, agriculturists and professional
men Of the entire South, by their industry
and attention 10 their various duties, and by
an honest observance of the laws OF the
country, are forming great and powerful
reconstruction committees, which VIII yet
restore the country TO its former prosperity
and glory.

NEGRO SUPrRsTIrIoN.-The chief Of po-
lice exhibited 20 us Yesterday 4 human
finger, which presented the appearance Of
having been dried The chief informs IS
that Il was taken from the pocket Of a negro
man who had been committed 10 Jail for
some otiense When found, the finger was
enveloped with sundry roots and herbs, in
termingled with fngor-nails.
The freedman begged piteously that his
talisman should not be taken from him,
affirming that "widout his o0Rjur bone he
couldn't never do muffin more These
charms are no new things among either
white OF black. As we examined the much
priced fetish Of the unfortunate darkey, We
were reminded Of the
Gall Of goats and slips Of ycw
Silvered in the moons eclipse,
Nose Of Turk and Tartar's lips,
Finger Of brth-stranglod babe
contributed by the witches in the famous
cauldron scene in Macbeth.
Before the war, il might have been the
subject Of inquiry, "where did that finger
come from ," But in these days of armies
men il is useloss.-AWqusia CoRsfutiOndtld.

sCHENCK's sEAWEED TONIC.

? This medicine, invented by DIR. J. II. Schenck,
Philadelphia, is intended to dissolve the food
and make 1t into chyme, the first process Of di-
gestion. By cleansing the stomach with
Schcncks Mandrake Pills. the Tonic soon re-
stores the appetite, and food that could not be
eaten before using it will be easily digested.
Consumption cannot be cured by Schenck's
Pulmonic Syrup unless the stomach and liver
Is made healthy and the appetite restored,
hence the Tonic and Pills are required in near
ly every case Of consumption. A half dozen
