A Big ::Brown-Stone Deal.
Carthage Blade-]

Col. Evans, of Philadelphia, repre-.
senting a syndicate of capitalists, has
been here several days on trade for
large brown-stone interests, owned by
Messrs. L. Grimm and j. Mel. Kelley
situated three or four miles northwest
of town. The trade has not been
closed yet, but the papers have been
drawn up, and it will very likely be
settled within a few days. These
quarries contain thousands of tons OF
stone, which has been pronounced by
experts to be the finest in the United
States. The purpose of this company
is to build railroad to these quarries,
and begin taking out the stone at an
early day. Col. Evans has secured
the right of way for the railroad over
nearly the entire proposed route. The
opening of these quarries will be quite
a boom for Carthage, aud we hope it
will not be loug before they are rum
ming at full blast.

North Carolina Oysters.
| From the Wilminqton iStar.l

The oyster beds of North Carolina
properly husbanded, may become a
mine of wealth to her in the future.
The Elizebeth City Economist quoting
Byron Styron, of Hatteras, in Dare
county, man thoroughly competent
to speak on the oyster question, says
that Pamlico Sound is literally paved
with oysters, and that the supply is
absolutely inexhaustible. Buthe says
our oyster laws are defective and
should be repealed or amended, as
they discriminate against large class
of people, are unwise and injudicious.
He says oysters accumulate and
smother each other, and liberal TAX
ing of them is relief and tends rath-
er to increase than diminish the sup
ply The opinion as to the abun-
dance of oysters in the Sound is
shared by many oyster dealers who
are locating along the Sound and 60

The striped bass placed in San

are plentiful all along the coast, from
Santa Barbara to the Columbia river.
