The Sealioard air line has deeideA to return to ttaleigh the repair shops which were removed to Portsmouth. Va., about a year since. This move indicaces to some extent the policy to bo pursued by the new management. Instead of con centrating the work at one point, divi sion shbps will do most of the worlc without necessitating the expense and risk of hauling damaged cars a long distance. The keen competition among the lines interested in Florida business may prove of direct benefit to Charlotte, It is well known that the Seaboard air line is anxious to get her own rails into Asheville. The Southern railway now owns and controls all lines entering Asheville. although the Seaboard air line at Rutherford ton is only forty miles away.

Washington, March 25. Senator Morgan, of Alabama, thinks the pres ent exodus of negroes from the south to Africa will increase rapidly in pro portions, and he believes that the time will soon come when the govern ment of the United Htates will take the matter up otlicially and aid in their de portation. In discussing the question, he said : Africa is the natural home of the negro, and a majority of them desire to return to that country. They cannot well lie blamed for tn-t'-rtaining that wish, for there Is nothing in this or any other white man's country for Hie African race.

Senator Morgan also asserted that a large majority of the white population in the south would prefer to have the negroes go. He said: It is certain that many of the planters, the owners of large plnntations. prefer to have them remain for the reason that they favor their labor in comparison with a certain ciass Of whites, but this element is in the minority, aad the poorer whites and the professional classes in the south prefer to have the negroes sent away. The poor man does not want thuir competition, and all classes object to negro equa'itv in political affairs, as all feel that they stand directly in the way of securing a more desirable class of residents, by prev. nt ing immigration. Furihermore. it is not true, as it seems to be supposed, that only negroes can do the labor in the southern state an as sertion which is substantiated by the fact that the cotton crop of this country has Increased from a little over three million bales bef jre the war to nine million bales. The senator expressed the opin-'on that congress would take the problem of exporting the negroes in hand at no distant day, and said he expected t jat within the next three or four years the government would be found providing means for their transportation. although the volume of business is smaller. because it is between seasons with dress goods mills and Australian wools are more popular.

At Nashville, Memphis, and Savannah the week's volume of business is reported slightly in excess of a week ago. increased demand be ing noted in groceries, hardware and agricul tural implements. At no other prominent southern cities are gains reported except New Orleans, though trouble with the dock freight handlers has resulted in a loss of business. At Charleston, Chattanooga.

The volume of business through clearing houses gains a little, being 14.1 per cent larger than last year, for the week, but 32.1 per cent less than for 1893. ' Most of the increase is at New York, and here and elsewhere partly due to active speculation. Bankers report a decid ed decrease in commercial paper offered and Western banks give evidence of a larger de mand by reducing balances here.
