The Doily Review, JOSH. T. JAMES, Editor & Prop. VIL,!lINTON. N. C. FRIDAY DECEMBER 12, 1879. Entered at the Vostoffice at Wilmington, 'N. C, aj Second-Class Mattrb.1 VEIWs AXiJ ilisi VII3VS. More than 3700,000 ia realizedJn Fra: ce by parasol making. A single property in California ia half the fcize of Rhode Island. According to the Russian paper Rasvet the total number of Jewish farmers is Russia is now probably upward of 100,- 000. The Polish residents of New York, on Saturday, celebr ted the anniversary of Count Pulaski's heroic death at Savannah in 1779. In Chicago, during the piesent year, one thousand and six'y-five new buildings, mos'ly brick, have been erected, at an Apartments prepared for Grant at the Gibson House, Cincinnati, are said to be 'fit for a king.' The greatest extrava-t- ' ; is bhovn in tbe real lace bedspread a ' i ; it u v bhaius. A labi'et erected to the memory of the late Commodore Vanderbilt in the Cburch of tbe Strangers, New York, was un veiled on Saturday in the presence of am company specially invited. Tbe profits of the Astor House, New York, on an average, are larger than those of any other hotel in that city. The re ceipts of tbe; lunch room alone are said' to be suflicieLt to pay therent. Airs. Hendricks, it is saidj believes she shall yet live iu the White House. Mrs Lincoln had a similar premonition, and used t say of her husband, 'He's going to be IVi-sldt nt, or I shouldn't have married him, fur Ypi isn't pretty, you know.' It tt-ai decided at a meeting held on 6 it rr day try proruiueot citizens of Elmira V V., to a piously push the work of eer.og a luonuiuont to the memory of Adam. A committee of three was ap Qpiotfd to correspond with eminent nlp4ors for tbe purpose of securing &gos, suggestions and estiiualeb upon bt cost of the memorial. The Matrimonial Aid and Benevolent Society of Cinciuuati started with great eoJat last summer. A picuic, at which tbe M 13 1 r preslrlt d, and three . couples were-wedded under the society's auspices, yielded a profit cf $2,000, and it was aunbuncea that the work of encouraging poor v6ud persons to marry would be pushed by giving them financial help. But the scheme has already failed. There is no money iu the Treasury, the youDg husbands and wive haves have not re ceived the promised assistance, and it is even charged that the wedding rings, presented to the three brides at the picnic, a-e oulyj plated. The Pue received on Sunday, Nov 23id, 500 re;et-eutativ(8.of the Lesgue of the A pustulate of Prayer an organization which promotes devotion to the Sacred Heart, lie eul giz d that devotion as in the front rank of means of salvation reiiiarKiu-:. -i ne neart oi Jesus is a porfeel ujoiie! ol the most sublime vir a :. : .1 ; I , ;i.

This is what we are told and asstrred by thy herotue of the Sacred Hearty the b'coed Marguerite Alaccque., The iiemvtn tiaveller Ernst vou Weber stronglysdvocates the acquisition by Ger many of Certain points ou the eastern and westerni coasts ot Africa. The establish meut of German colonies in southern Af rica is a favorite idea of Herr von Weber's and upward of tour years ago he wrote a memorandum proposing a scheme by w hich Germany should obtain possession of Delagoa Bay and the Transvaal, the Germati-Afrkau emphe of the tuture,' which lie ser.t tjom Southern Africa to the Emperor Wiiiiam and Bismarck. The P iuce th.Uikod him for his patriotic pro posal, but added that he could not hold out any hope of the realizHion of the scheme. Thr prospect for a canal at the upper end of Manhattan Island, connecting with tbe North and East rivers by way of the Harlem, ia reviving, and it looks now as if that might be a fact before the Brooklyn bridge or the Hudson River tunnel. The coat will not be over $2, 100,000. A depth of twelve to fifteen or eighteen feet will be secured, and the up per end of the island will, if the scheme worki, be transformed. Line the Harlem River with shipping and open Long Is land Sound to commerce, and business may drift up that way and tashion work back again to the Battery for its homes Considering that Gen. Newton, of Hell Gate fame, is at the head cf this workit tnav be exDccted to HO if the Annmnria m J j-. w. M lion is made. ANXIOUS FOR A MONARCHY; The sentiment (ff the people of tbe North for the complete overthrew of every principle of State sovereignty ia undoubt edly a growing one. Ever ioce tbe reball liation of the Southern States, after the close of the war, this sentiment .Ins been cropping out. in certain 1 localities and from those who hav3 considerable weight and influence in political matters. It baa grown in favor 'and, popularity within the last three or four years. It is true that there is yet a strong feeling against It, but the accumulation of testimony goe to show that it is gaining in favor, es pecially among the smaller class of politiciana and the extreme portion of tbe votim? Donulation. To eive an idea of C7 l L , the feeling at tbe North we quote the follo'.vinz Dreamble to a petition of rr VVi.li.iai Giles Dix, of Peabody, Mass., which was presented to the Senate on the 9th inst , by Senator Hoar, of tha1, State: "The time has come 1 when the doc trine of State sovereignty, logically a begging of the questioq ai,d historically a lie. ahould be eradicatsd frcm the civil structure of the Unitod States and when the principle and the . fct of national eovereignty, claiming the direct allegiance of all and directly guarding the rigbt? of all, should be thoroughly and for ever confirmed by organic law, beyoua the reach of doubt, denial, or defiance." Connected with the I preamble was a petition for a national convention to form a new constitution after the plan indica ted by the spirit of the foregoing, which was referred, on moiion, to the Judiciary Committee. 1 may never again be heard from, but in all probability, it will be followed by a host of otberl, conceived in tbe same spirit and incubated in the same nest. ' SLAVtRy IN NEW FKGLANU It ia well known that Ithe Northern . i i States, while British colonies, were the first to owxrfllaves, and that) they turned to profitable account the shipping, nd commercial advantangesj of that section by engaging in the importation of nei grofs frcm Africa to 'be aold as 'alaves. Itiaa fact well known i that in this en terprise of slave stealing and slave selling the New England' States, then British colonies, were more largely engaged than any other portion of the country, but; it is, perhaps, not generally known among the people of this section that their slave selling was not confided exclusively to tbe African race, and that while ihey im ported negroes they at the ,same time did quite a thriving business ,in exporting and Belling as slaves in ' the West India islands the Indians captured: by them. Those old Puritans had- a peculiarly im pressive way of transacting business, & ' though it would seem to ius of the pres ent day that their aty!e of mixing holy with secular things was, to say the least in rather bad taste. The following, which we quote frcm a letter written to Johul Winthrop, who wrs then Colonial Gov ernor of Massachusetts, combines saintli ness with slavery in a , most graphic nian ner: Sijr Mr. Endecot i and myself salute you in the Lord Jesus, etc. Wee have heard of a dividance of women and chil-, dren Pequot captives in the bay and would bee glad of a share, viz' (, a young woman orgirle and a buy, jif you think good. I wrote io you for some boyea for Bermudas.' 1 I ' ' In a letier written i$ 1G-15 to the same occurs the following: ! I "If upon a Just warre with thefNarra gnset th'e Lord shouid deliuer them into our hands, we riiiht easily have men, women and children enough to exchange for Moores, which wiil bj more gayneful piliadge tor us than ' wee conceive, fori doe not see how wee can thrive ,ubtil Vee geu into a stock ot slaves sufficient to doe an our children bu-iiuess for, our children's Will hardlv see this ereat Continent filled with w - piople, see that ' desire freedom our servants will still to plant for tht m selves, and not to stav but for very great wagest And 1 suppose you know ycrie well hdw wes shall mayn tayne 20 Moorso cheaper than one English servant."" i THE EXODUS MOVEMENT. We have had occasion, in a former, is sue of the Review, to speak of the exo dus of a large n j ruber ot colored pec pie from Lenoir county'td Indiana where, they have teen led to believe by the unprinci pled knaves whose dupes they rre, a land of milk and honey and the1 largest amon' of wages for the smalleat amount of labor awaits them. We mentioned that the movement was inaugurated and put in ex ecution solely for the purpose of colonizing a sufficient number of voters in that State to assure it to I the Republican in the next Presidential election: ana we- aiso stated that .the ignorance and credulity j of the colored race would lead to untqld suffering to them in consequence of this new coloni zation scheme . We were correct in our conclusions, for, although the exodus has not fairly begun as yet, the suffering is upon hem in fearful reality. Hundreds are waiting at Goldsboro, haying disposed of every worldly possession in order to reach the "promised land ' and expended it all before the journey had fairly com- i mi At I , I uieuceu. i nere iney are, dependent upon charity, but eager and anxious to push forward, and waiting hopefully1 for some oue to furnish the means by jfrbich they can proceed, A great many have reached WjashingtoD, where hey haye been obliged to remain in con sequence of a lick of the necessary funds. There th.y are also supported by charity and are actually sneering for the commits and necessaries of life. A very few have reached Indiana, aid they send back a d ileful ai d pi'iable ai count ot the condi" tion in which they find thfmsehes placed, and while they warn their race not to at tempt to leave tht ir prffeut hemes, th-y alsb make tl e most imploringappeala io help by which they may be a Me to return t North Carolma. The following extract from a letter frcm one of the most iutelii gent of these who have reached Indiana, which we clip frcm the Goldburo Jes-yen yer, reveals the true coLdition ofaffiiis wi'ih the colored people in that Statt : Gbeencastle.

" The most in4uisitivo person we have heard of recently was the young man io France who dropped a lighted cigar into the buoghole of an empty petro leum cask and thep applied his eye to said bunghole to watch the result. Ii ia presumed that the exhibition was eminently satisfactory as well as en tertaining, tut he has been remarka bly reticent sinoe the. performance, i'ne rioral offerings were many aud beautiful. Boston Transcript Who says the age of chivalry is dead? The other d.y an officer out in Davenport, li, attempted to arrest a bride just as she waj, starting on her wedding trip, only because she had koieu $50 from somebody's hunk. But the gallant crowd wouldn't have it. Tbey fired rocks and bad egga in to the nnromantic policeman till he had to run for bis life, and the bride got off with her $30 all safe. Young men should beware of the following paragraph, which was start ed by a Philadelphia paper, and is now going the rounds. Tbe cbanoes are that the man who wrote it is tied to a woman-with a hand Jika a Japan ese fan, and a voice that would make a buzz-saw pau e in astonishment. It reads: VMar.iage is a safe way to gamb.e; if you win, yon win a pile, and if you lose, you don't iosts any thing. ' Tbe American handbooks concern ing the usages of good society are at least equaled by a Parisiau manual of tsavoir-vivre, from which the following passage is taken: , In good society people always fold their nctes or letters and fasten down the flps or envelopes with the nails of the lingers. Inquiries are frequent ly made as to the reason why this should be done and why ithe tips of the fingerS would not answer as (well. The explanation is very eimple. A letter should be ? crupuiously neat and the tips of the fingtrs are generally dirty !' Young Kittleton Bragge (affably to' middle-aged stranger, wiiom he finds alone in Browne's studio) 'Gbod pic ture, ain't it? Old Stilton's bought it. The Dake, you know.
