BRUTAL AFFAlR.-A Havana despatch
says the British Counsul has sent her Bri-
tannio Majesty's steamer Heron to Caibar-
len to investigate the affair of the British
schooner JEFF. Davis. This vessel was CAP
tured in the old Bahama channel and brought
into Baibnrien, because sho had on board as
passengers five Cubans, white and colored,
who were codeavoring to reach Nassau.
On arriving, the passengers were at once
brought on shore and their landing was
soon known. Two Of them, francisco nj.
Jiminez and Fafael Falero, were persons of
standing and wealth. They were surround
ed by mob Of volunteers, and. in the pre-
sence of the women and children of their
own families, were taken from the guard
of marines who had them in charge and
put to death in the streets, under q promis-
cuous attack with guns, pistols, bayonets
and knives. Even after they were dead, tho
volunteers amused themselves by sticking
their bayonets into the lifeless bodies.
When tired of this bloody pastime they
searched the bodies, and finding a bag full
OF ounces. greeted the discovery with cries
of " ViUa Espana!' The only crir1e of
these two victims was merely that OF try
ing to escape from being sent to the L, ,anl
OF Fernando Po, which has fallen to tho iot
of all Cubans of any standing. The I 4p-
tain and crew of the jeff Davis are still in
prison at Caibarien. The British Consul
is expecting fleet of several vessels, which
have been ordered to cruise in the Bahama
waters On the same day two Cubans we're
shot at Caibarien for being bearers of rebel
correspondence.

In a recent visit to Fayetteville, We were
gratiGed to find a wooden factory in foil
operation, whose business was such as 10
require enlargement of the buildings. The
Fayetteville Wooden Mills were started by
J. 7. Medearis & Co. about year ago, on
a small scale. The enterprise was 20 cue
cessful that it has already enlarged it's
operations, and is the largest wooden fac
tory in this part Of the State. 1t is filled
with machines for cardiDg, spinning
machines, looms, etc, which turn out cas-
simereF, jeans, casinet, flannel, blankets
and all the staple wooden goods of the
market. The burr machine, which cleans
the wool for manufacture, is an admirable
thing for this section. The proprietors
are practical men, and we wish them sue
cess.
We mention the above facts TO show the
ease with which home enterprises may be
built up IN our midst. 1t is an example
worthy Of imitation in all branches OF
mechanical industry. Small beginnings,
if properly managed, will grow to large
results. For such there is money enough
in the country. Let it be tried, and we
will soon be independent of foreign manu-
fac.urers.
