The Lutheran Seminary.
In the article in Sunday morning's

ted as pledged in subscriptions to se
cure the removal of the institution to
Charlotte should have been $1,700. Dur
ing yesterday this amount was raised

inary at this place.

Colored Aliaaeft. : ,
While an Observer reporter was
talking to Henry Horn&inv the jail, last
Saturday, a prisoner who was walking
the galleries, approached the burglar's,
cell and addressing Home as Mr. Scott,
disked the loan of a Testament which he
held in his hand. The reporter asked
Home why the man had called him
Scott. He said that after emancipation
many of the negroes discarded their
master's names and took those of the
most distant ancestor whose name they
could rind. It is a fact that very many
negroes are known by numbers of sir
names, and this is the first time the re
porter had heard it explained.

The State treasurer has decided that
the act passed by the last Legislature,

Wth, 1879, and tne provisions in the
amendatory act giving it effect "af
ter the first day of July, 1880, taken in
connection with section 3 of the amend
ed act, fixes the time at October 1, 1880.

that the race would be a' walk oyer.

the nominees, Walter Brem j two col
