TAR RIVER NAv1GATIoN.-Itis is said, that
the great want of our people is a spirit of
cooperation. That however much an en-
terprise may be proven to be of public in
terest few can be found to foster it, unless
it can be shown that great personal pecu-
MARY advantages will be reaped. Now is
this the way to build up country? In a
section where individual wealth is general
this argument is not so applicable, for per-
sonal interest will develope the community,
but as we are situated, few among us being
able to accomplish anything of magnitude
by individual efforts alone,> it should be-
come principle to cooperate.
Now the Tar River Navigation Company
proposes to accomplish general public
good, by giving our farmers another means
of transportation, 30 as to furnish compe-
tition, and to interest them in the concern
30 that whatever of profit is made by the
transportation may accrue to the benefit of
the farmer himself and not some third per-
son. The general good derived from a
well organized enterprise of this kind can
not be easily estimated. The simple fact
of another boat on the river, even if it failed
to accomplished any direct good of itself,
would awaken spirit of accommodation
hard to keep up where there is only one
boat.
Let the people of Washington, Green
vile and Tarboro, and along the line, think
of these things and come together next
Tuesday prepared to push the enterprise tc
speedy and successful issue.

BASE BALL MATCE.-Pirsuant to a
challenge sent to the Stonewall Base Ball
Club by the Wilson Club, which was ac-
cepted by the former, q match game was
played upon the base ball ground in the
Commons Wednesday evening. At the
end of the third ins the Stonewalls had
made four or five rounds more than its
competitor, but on the fourth the Wilson
Club succeeded in playing an extraordina-
rily successful game which the Stonewalls
were not able to overcome, and the result
was complete victory for the Wilson
Club, the score being 40 to Il.
The Wilson Club is composed of splen-
did material, is tastily uniformed, well
drilled, and stands as the champion club of
North Carolina. Their generosity to their
unsuccessful but gallant foes, in giving the
first cheer for the fallen, is worthy of COM
msndation. 1t is due the Stonewall Club
to mention that they have had but little
practice, the nina that played Wednesday
having never played together before.
The Hop given to the Wilson Club by
the Stonewalls was nice affair and much
enjoyed.

A SAMPLE BUSINESS MAN.-Some time
ago we met on the cars Mr. Geo. Allen, Of
the firm of Geo. Allen & Co., dealers in
agricultural implements, Newbem, N. G.
During our conversation with this gentle
men we elected certain facts in relation to
his business which are worthy of note and
which, we hope, we do no violence to pri-
vacy in publishing.
Mr.. Allen was the son of a clergyman
and commenced business in NeWbern when
he was but sixteen as a clerk At the age
of twenty one he was enabled to commence
on his own account, or rather, as partner
in the extensive agricultural house of
Mitchell. Allen s. Co., where he remained
until the death of MIR. Mitchell when he
assumed chief control of the house. The
business has more than maintained itself
under Mr.. Aliens supervision and to-day
is, we suppose, the most extensive of its
kind done IN North Carolina. Liberaity
and the free use of printers ink are the
characteristic features of Mr.. Allen in the
conduct of his business. He issues a
monthly circular containing valuable in
formation, distributes 1000. copies of an
agricultural journal to his patrons during
the year, all gratis, and advertises not only
in every paper in his city but in nearly all
that circulate at all in his section. He
says he believes he receives direct benefit
from his advertisement, but. even if he
did not, he thinks every merchant whose
business will justify it ought to spend al
least one or two hundred dollars year
with his local papers, as they do so much
for the prosperity Of bis section.
