t NOr WESTWARD ().
Westward once the star Df the em
pire .took its way, 'but the time
is not far off, if it has not already
come, when it will change its" course
to southward. : There 1 was a rbasdn
why-it took its way , westward. It
was not because it bad any particular
fancy for the- West, but because the
West held out a special invitation."
The west was' a , broad, iuninhnbited
field f with its great forests, . wide
prairies, flowing rivers;: in viting peo
ple to come,! cheap lands at, nom
inal prices furnished ? farms and
homesteads for all who sought them;'
On an average they were good lands
and'yielded well, for the labor given
to them. The hundreds of thousands
of home seekers from the old wor'd,
people from the older and more dense
ly settled States, looked westward;
went westward, and found the homes
they sought. The WesJ
is the the cVlille' Today and tliara
is scarcely 'tng-at. whn -mjehty bea
called a West in the sense it was then
used. , Rapid population, rapid trans,
it, rapid development have abolished
its distinctive features 'and there is
now between the two oceans really no
border line. V There is yet, it is true,
an extensive domaia buj'sparsely in
habited, but there are climatic and oth -er
drawbacks agajnst its Bpeedy settle
ment. ' It has a rival, too; in the
South, the New South,' if we may use
the expretiun, which has just begun
to grow, and just begun to develop
what there is in her. With a variety
of climate ranging from the temper
ate to the tropical,' with a variety of
productions unexcelled, anywhere in
the world with a forest growth bear
ing nearly every useful or ornament
al tree, with mineral resources un
bounded, in extent - and kind, .with
broad J navigable rivers IwitU thou

for driving machlnerjr, B with great

thousands of miles of stacoast, with
some of the best harbors on the con ,

the money in voster to come, and they,
will "come: : The cauijiff" t.rat( im-
peded their, 'corning hk the years

world knows more about the South
than it ever knew, and: the South
knows m ire ' ab)ut the world. In
certain respects it was a terra tncog
' nttq. It is so no longer. It was, we
might say, even worse than an un
known land, for J it was. known to
many only through the tongue or the
pen of the slanderer, who- did his
worst while he had a hearing. But
the time has come when the slander.,
er has lost his power and truth ' tri.
umphs over falsehood, and the South
is seen as she is, not as ' she was
painted. I Tiere are more people to
day reading about and studying the
map of the region between the Po-
tomac and the Rio Grande then there
ever were before, and they read with
interest and study with a motive,
not from mere curiosity, nor for mere,
desire for information.' - The time , is
not far distant when the tide df mov
ing people will be southward, as it
hes been westward, and when begun
it will be -continued, until these vals
leys are filled and these hills are the
homes of busy multitudes. . The
South of the present is to the South
of the future as the child to the grown
man, the rivulot to the mighty com
merce-bearing river, as the Rome of
Romulus to the Rome of Caesar. -

THE STATE Jt POSITION.
Important M'fettng of tbe Stockholders
1 Last Erening.J'
leigh News and Observer, 3rd Inst
A meeting of the stockholders of
the North Carolina State Exposition
was called ;. to ' order , by president
Primrose at 8 o'clock last evening in
tbe mayor's office, and Messrs. H E.
Fries, W- H Page and F. A. Olds,
were requested to act as secretaries.
The; "stockholders presented . their
shares and such papers as were held
by them, and it was found that 471
shares were represented." The presi
dent read his report, which was ae
cepted amid applause.
On motion' the secretary's report
was called for and submitted. A mo
tion was made that both reports be
spread upon the minutes. "
i From the secretary's report it ap
peared that should the remainder of
the stock and such accounts as are
considered good be paid, there would
be a surplus in' favor of the stock
holders of $877.30. In addition there
remains at the disposal of the stocks
holders the main building, machinery
shed, some Water-tanks, water-pipes
Shafting. &C. . - :
Col. Burgwyn reported Xhe follow
ing- !- :: r-: H ;
. "Resolved, That from the surplus,
$300 be appropriated to purchase a
silver service to be presented to our
most worthy and highly esteemed
president, in appreciation of the vals
uable services rendered by him." .
The resolution was seconded and
being put to a vote by CoL B irgwyn,
wrs carried unanimously. Col. Bur
gwyn, Maj.?R. S. Tucker and Mr. H.
E; Fries were appointed to make the
purchase and present it in the name
of the exposition company.
After much discussion it was - re
ived that a committee of nine, id-
eluding the president and -secretary
be appointed to confer with the State
Agricultural Society: or any other
body, concerning the disposition of
the building, they to report their acs
tion to a called meeting of the stock
holders ef this company, and ' should
it be impossible to secure a meeting
of the stockholders, the - committee
should then have power to dispose of
the buildings in such way as they see
fit, and divide the proceeds, if a sale
is made, pro rata among the stock
holders.. The following were aps
pointed on that ' committee: W. S.
Primrose,'' president, chairman; Eu
gene Grissom, W. G. Upchurch, R.
S Tucker, E. R Stamps, W. C. Stro

dog: " "
Executive Mansion, Albany, N.
Y.. vNov. 27. 1884. My Dear Sir
Day before yesterday, when I arrived
here in the evening trom the execu
tive chamber, I found in the house a
fine Newfoundland dog, and: yester
day I learned . through your letter
that the dog was . intended as a gift
from you. I hope you will not deem
it affectation-on my part when 1
"write you that I am very adverse to
receipts of gifts, especially in the res
lation of strangers,, which aou and I
sustain to each other. A number of
small gifts have been sent to me.
' some of them, '. doubtless, from those
who : seek in this manner to show
their good; will, while others have
been received from those whom I sus
pect of attemptmgpurely to: procure
an acknowledgment. It is hard to
offend the former class by an - ezhibi
tion of churlessness or lack of appre
ciation, and my disposition to humor
the desire of the others. The accept
ance of presents of value which could
involve an obligation I should deem
in""mv nresent Dosition entire inad
missible, and I confess I should feel
better if all gifts of every description
