Last Monday morning, after spending Sunday night in Concord, we went over to Salisbury expresr jly to'see the connoctional institu tion of Zion Methodist church. We arrived at tho old town very early in the morning and proceeded to the residence of our old friend Wm. Henderson. He rose a little earlier than usual that morning, and as ho is a loading politician in Rowan county, we were soon ab sorbed in the discussion of politics. Mr. Henderson married ono of our best young ladies of Fayetteville, and his mother-in-law, Mrs. Carter, whom wo have known from our childhood prepared breakfast for us. After spending a few hours very pleasantly with them we visited ZION WESLEY INSTITUTE, where we found that talented and affable young divine, Rev. J. C. Price, who is always ready and on hand. He showed us around the grounds and through the buildings. They have about forty acres of land and one very nice two story build ing in which are lodging rooms and recitation rooms. It is the purpose to put up a temporary building at once, and in a few. months com mence the erection of a ten thous and dollar building. The plan was explained and is very convenient and spacious. . The grounds and all are paid for, nice desks are ordered, they have a nice organ and piano, and in short have made an excellent start. There were about thirty scholars in, and from the applications to the princi pal, nearly one hundred arc expect ed during the winter. Prof. E. Moore is the principal teacher at present. Now \VP would urge the members! ofSßion commotion to send in their boys and girls, wo would say to young men and ladies, patronize this your own institution. Mr. Price and Mr. Moore are both grad-, uates from one of the best colleges of the country aud rank among the brightest scholars of our day. Tho school has a fine and healthy loca tion. Let tho ministers aud all loading men do their duty, and without detracting from any other institution, Zion Wes|py may be fill ed at oncq, '{'hove is no work allot i»d for tho students and tho expen ses aro small. Colored Professors for Liberia. Rev. A. M. Browne, pastor of Shiloh Presbyterian ohuroh, New York, and Hev. T. MeC.

Mr, Browne is 31 years of age, and was born in Wash ington, D. C. He studied in Howard University, in his native city, and after ward entered Princeton Seminary, from whioh he was graduated in 1878. He then studied philosophy for two years in Ellinburgh University, in Scotland, after which he read theology and studi ed the languages in Germany. He is unmarried. Mr. Stewart is as years of age. He was bom of free parents in Charleston, & 0., and was graduated from the University of South Carolina in 1875. For two years he practiced law in South Carolina, and was profes sor of mathematics in the State Agri cultural College for two years. Mr. Stewart then entered Princeton Semi nary, but after studying for two years was obliged to give upon account of failing health. In 1880 he was called to Bethel Methodist Episoopal church.
