Dear journal q:
Times quiet and people busy. We
usually finish planting coFu ia March.

as yet commenced, or even prepared
their lands. About the usual acreage

Much less money will be Invested III

B"yi'ay manure don't pay IN Anson,
The late cold weather destroyed many
peaches and ptums, the only fruits il.
bloom here, but still, without further
accident. We will have plenty OF
politics, the late Legislature, the Cou-
veutione, ven the dreadful ''usuty''
law, one may meet a hundred men ii
day-business, professional men, me-
chanics and farner.-and not hear

OF Mr. Ashe and Col. BeDnett

distance from home, il fact from a di--
taDt county, yea, verify, Bnncombe !
Folks here don't talk so. Our
sportsmen are making the most of the
few days left them by the "bird law, )"

heartily approve. Two of them walked

well known, old and honorable citizen
Of our section, Isham A. Dumas, Esq,

Con.umpttves. Fake Notice.

Every moment of delay makes your cure
more hopeless, ard much depends on the ju-
dicious choice Of remedy. The amount of
testimony in faver of DIR. Scher ck's P dlmonic
Syrup, cure for consumption, far exceeds
all that can be brought to support the preten-
sons IF any other medicine. See pr. Schenck's
Almanac, containing the certificates of many
persons of the highest respectability, who have
been restoI ed to health, after being pronoun-
ced incurable by physicians of acknowledged
ability. Schenck's Pulmonic syrup alone has
cured many, As these evidences will show; but
the cure is often promoted by the employment
OF two other remedies which DIR. Schenck pro-
vides for the purpose. These additional RENE
dies Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic and Man
drake Pills. BY the timely use of these medi-
cines, according to directions, DR.. Schenck
certifes that most any case of Consumption
may be cured.
DR.. Schenck is professionally at his princi-
pal Office, corner Sixth and Arch streets,
Philadelphia, every Monday, where all letters
for advics must be addressed.

frmation was administered by the
Bishop of the Diocese. Around the
chancel and upon the altar flowers and
eyergreens were most exquisitely ar
ranged-the simple 'lillies of the
field" the pure and beautiful offerings
from nature to natures God
The occasion, the surroundings, the
stiffness of so large congregation, were
all calculated TO excite devotion and
awaken sympathetic feelings, and
when the leading female voice in the
choir, accompanied by the deep dia-
pason of the organ, walled forth the
words Of that beautiful hymn, Cfor The
voice sounded like the wall of
broken spirit, "Hear our solemn
lltany," we doubt if there was an indi-
vidnal then present who did not feel
that sit was good for him to be there.
The venerable Bishop of the Do
cese preached, his subject being the
resurrection from the dead It was a
mastery discourse, unanswerable il
Argument, compact, logical, free from
vcrbiege and Astounding in passages
of great beauty and pathos, and d.
livered with that unaffectedness and
earnestness which is SO characteristic
of this distinguished divine The con-
Guiding portion of his sermon wa- pc
cnliarly touching and impressive, and
"a he spoke of a happy re-urion in
that other and better world with the
loved ones who have gone before,
many an eyelid became moist, and
many a heart throbbed with emotion.
We do not envy the Individual who
could have witnessed the ceremonies
OF that day without some reawakening of
holy feelings; even the mere worldly
man must have felt some movement
within him of his earlier and bert:.r
nature. It was an occasion iong to be

the great value of these ap-
preparations to the growing
commerce of the port, they appeal
directly to the common sense of every
thinking mind. Our extensive and
dangerous coast Inc, with the delays
incident VI Oh obtaining early infor-
nation of disasters upon the coast, SO
tnat prompt assistance may be render
ed, gives great value to the Coast Line
Signal Service in the interest both of
commerce and humanity. We there
fore regard the appropriation for es-
tablisbing the Coast Line Signal Ser
vice, not only upon our OWL, but the
entire sea coast, as appropriate and
judiclous.
By resolution inserted in the River
and Harbor bill. the Secretary of War
has been directed to cause an examin-
alton or survey, or both, to be made
of line between the Neuse and Cape
Fear Rivers, in North Carolina, with a
view to connect the waters of the same.
And like line, with a view to connect
the waters of Norfolk Harbor, in Viz
glnia, with the waters of the Cape
Fear River, at or near Wilmington,
North Carolina
This too, we regard as a subject of
vast commercial lmpo, lance. particu
larry to our own port and Eastern
North Carolina, and secondarily to the
State at large. Aud of vital import
ance to the nation as one grand step
towards opening 81 inland water COM

Astounding 10 the finest lands for grape
culture, fruit and general agriculture.
We therefore earnestly urge the
Chamber to use every means in it,
power to have this project pressed to ii
succtssful termination at the earliest
practicable moment.
We would recommend to the Cham |
ber that immediate steps be tak.li |
for having the river lighted ia the it
terest OF commerce, and for having Il |
first class Life Boot stationed at or |
near Smithvilie in the interest OF hui
mauity.

Easter at Sc James.

The services at s.. James Church
on Sunday, Easter, were exceedingly
interesting and affecting. A very
large congregation flied the Church,
aud the stiilUess that re1gued through
ont the entire service was the best EVIL
dence of the sincerity aud devotional
feeling Of those who had come up to
that venerable temple to celebrate the
advent of their risen Lord.
At early mc IN, the sweet voices of
children rang out from the tower OF the
Church Ill joyous songs Of praise, and
as we listened to the exhilerati1 6
strains we could not but think that no
more appropriate welcome could be
offered to Him who this day triumphed
over death and the grave, than inno-
cent childhood caroling forth it's
Easter Anthem in strains of sweetest
melody. It was simply beautiful and
well calculated TO excite tender and
holy emotions.
