THE STATE CHRONICLE, SATURDAY, JANUARY 6, 1884. THE FRUITS OF ADVERTISING Are Beginning to AppearA Report of the New York Agent of Immigration. John T. Patrick, Gen. lm. Agent of the State of North Carolina : Dear Sir I herein submit a brief report of my work in co-operation with your official ef forts in turning a select class of laborers, c. ttlcrs and capitalists into Xorth Carolina. The preliminary steps in organizing this agency in connection with your State department, were taken on the first of September last. During that month and October following, some progress was made in securing and furnishing a large and commodious room, fronting on Broad w ay in building J91, in the block between the" Grand Central and New York hotel ; a location central for New York and its surrounding cities. Through the kindness of the officers in charge of the North Car olina exhibit in Boston, samples of the products of mines, woods, farms, facto ries, etc., were obtained, and they are permanently- exhibited in my office with tell ing otlVci. 1 began to advertise the advantages of North Carolina for settlers last September in several of the widely circulated papers of New York. The New York Sun and other influential journals have sent report ers to examine the exhibit of products in the office, and they have published gratui tously very beneficial and gratifying re ports. These papers have carried infor mation concerning my agency and its work all over the continent, and letters have heen received from the far West, as well as from the Northwest, the North, and the East all manifesting a deep interest in the subject of immigration into North Carolina. The real work of my agency may be re garded as having begun on the first of No vember, and this report is chiefly for the two months ending 31st December, 18S3. During this period sixty (GO) persons have been directly guided into North Carolina through thh agency. Most of them went as heads of families and representatives of other parties to look out locations for bu siness aud settlement in the State. Of this number several persons and families have already moved and located at various places in your State and are pleased. Of this number, also, are the represen tatives of a number of Europeans, mostly French, led by Mr. R. A. Bonhomme, who in connection with my agency has organ ized a colony to locate in North Carolina and engage in the culture and manufacture of silk and the growing of grapes, fruits, and vegetables. Some fifty (50) families are ready to go and unite with the colony as soon as the lands have been selected and divided for them. Several other par ties at various places are getting ready to move with their families and locate in col onies or settlements on large tracts of land which are being secured and divided for that purpose. I have appointed several assistant agents in New York and adjoining States, who are co-working with this agency and good results are alreadjr seen growing out of their enorts. A very competent gentleman has been appointed to work with this agency in England, with headquarters in London, in that direction. A very prominent French gentleman who recently went back to France for a time, has been appointed to represent this agency and especially the Bonhomme silk and wine colony, among the French peo ple. A prominent Frenchman, also, now head of an immigration and land bureau in St. Paul, Minn., has made application and been appointed to represent the North Carolina agency among the people of the Northwest, many of whom are so anxious to remove to the South to escape the severe winters and disastrous storms of that sec tion. "With ten years' observation and expe rience in the pioneering work of turning se lect immigration into the Southern States. I am now convinced that the right policy is to secure chiefly that class of people who have intelligence, courage and means suffi cient to secure and build up occupation and industries on their own account. My general rule is seldom to send any one South who has not means to pay his or her own transportation. I think now that I can send 1000 good people into the State during the year 1S84. If so, it will add materially to the wealth and progress of the State. For it is esti mated by economists that each able-bodied laborer is equal to a capital of $1,000 in State wealth, besides what they take with them in means. Respectfully submitted, Tilman R. Gaines.

The graduates in music of this Institute attain to a standard of taste and culture rarely reach ed in any school. Its art pupils, with no more time devoted to it than in other schools, have given in both North and South Carolina such exhibits of their work as have never been equaled elsewhere in the South. The reason of this superiority is that only Teachers of ap proved experience are engaged. The same high standard of excellence and thoroughness is sustained in every department. Rev. WM. 11.
