PEACE ON THE RIVER.
(Hamptun Monitor.)
Reports come from the public oyster
bcds of Jamea river at length that all
M at peace. This is indeed moat grati
fying and fncouraging. For the past
three months the atmosphere has been
full of threats,and unrest has been mani
feat upon all sides.
On last Monday Surveyor Ruediger
completed running some of the most
important lines and set about at once
nlacing permanent buoys to mark these
boundaries. With these lines run the
worK will stop until some time next
cpring. It is eminently satisfactory to
all parties concemed, the Commission,
the tongera and the planters, that the
work cease for the winter at thia point.
Mr.Ruediger as an unbiased party to
theaffafr had an excellent opportunity
to feel the pulse of the people in the
Krown Shoals neighborhood, and in
Hampton a few njghts sincc he took oc
eaaaaa to express the general aatisfac
tion that prevailed amongall the people.
What was a storm of protest some
months ago is today a peaceful zephyr.
The secret of this success is that the
Commission has done the right thing
and.has hurried up ahout doing it.
THEY ALL DEMAND IT.
