We are glad to hear that the color ed Industrial Exposition, now being held at Raleigh, is a success and very creditable to the colored people of he State. ; It is an encouraging in dication of future advancement to see these people taking so much in terest in the industrial progress of heir race, in which they have the ull sympathy of the white people of he State. It is not to be expected hat as yet this progress can be very great, considering the condition of he colored people and the obstacles they have to" contend against, most of them being poor, but compara tively few of them landsowners, or skilled worker, but that they show a desire to become such and have the spirit of emulation, as shown in these expositions, augurs well fcr the fu ture. The experience of years has shown them that the successful man in life, be he white or black, is the man who deDends upon himself and, in current parlance, 'hoes his own row." For years after iheir emancipa tion and enfranchisement they treas ured the hope, encouraged by the declarations of unprincipled political eaders, that they were to become the special wards of the nation, that they were to be provided with forty acre farms and mules from the es tates of their old masters, and that for them the future was to be, so to speak, a life of sunshine and ease They, in their simplicity, believed his, and it was only after long dis appointment that they ceased to hang to the delusion. In the mean ime they made but little effort at bettering their condition, shunning their besc friends, who could and would have helped them, and blindly bllowing the fortunes of their sel fish, mercenary dcluders and self- constituted leaders. They know bet ter now, think more, and as- a result many of them are working manfully and are succeeding well. Tnis is so in other Southern States, as well as in North Carolina. . The colored department at the New Orleans World's Exposition attracted TMnoh tf.Ant.irm as did nlsn t,h mis ored exposition in Mississippi recent ly held, all or which mark the pro gress that the colored people a making and show that at least a por tion of them have entered upon the work of their own advancement. There are. thinking men among them, who hplifivfithfiv havo a hatter nnn, pose m living than to be the mere decoy birds or politicians: who are doing a good work in exciting and keeping up the spirit of emulation among their i people, the happy re - suits of which are shown in these creditable expositions. Let them continue on this line and in time they will not only better their ma terial condition but command the consideration and respect of their white fellow citizens who appreciate and encourage honest efforts in the battle of life. Martin Fryer, of White Plains, N. Y., forty years old, had a wife and three children. Business called him to Pittsburg, Pa., occasionally, and there he became enamored of a young woman. - Last Tuesday he killed him self by sending a bullet through his head, giving as a reason that he "loved the girl and couldn't do with out her." As he didn't take the girl with him it does not seem that he bettered his case much. In addition to the successful candi dates elected at the late elections a number of simpletons were also elect ed to tackle wheelbarrows and trun dle other simpletons through the streets, a very ridiculous style o wagers on elections, which prevails, to more or less extent throughout this great Republic. The committee in charge of the re vival movement at Birmingham, Ala, at the close of the revival last week handed Rev. Saci Jones a check for 1,000 and took up several hats full of silver for Sam Small, about $450. - It is proposed in Richmond to make the inauguration of Gen. Fitzhugb Lee, Jan. 1st, 1886, a grand affair, and a committee has been appointed to consult with him as to his wishes. We rejoice with the Virginians in their grand victory, but we trust that the inaugural tomfoolery which has been carried to such excess in some States, not in Virginia, fuss, feathers and parade will be dispensed with. Jasushi Homura, the postmaster. general of Japan, visited Washington yesterday on Lis return from the postal convention at Lisbon. He says the postal service of Japan is in excellent condition. There are more than '5,000 postoffices in the empire. Two years ago postage on letters was reduced to two cents, and letters are now carried to any part of the em So pire ap that rate. Mobile, Alabama, shows signs of waking up. She has been one of the go-slow cities of the South. But the city council has decided to light up with! electricity, grade arid pave the side walks which had - gone to ruin, and : make other needed improve ments. V. It is said that Roscoe iConkling is laying his wires to go back to the XL S. Senate as the successor of Warner Miller twelve months hence. The Paris catacombs are said to contain upwards of 3,000,000 skele tons. This would be a good place for John Sherman to retire to. Florida oranges are such a drug on the New York market that ,70.000. were sold at auction Tuesday last. GUITEAU'8 BONES. V. Colonel Corkblll Unable to Un ravel the Mystery of their Rest ingr Plaee. Colonel Corkhill, District Attorney at the time Guiteau was hung,' was asked -. yesterday by a JNew York World correspondent what had been done witn uuueau s oones. tie res plied I don't really know. Cxenerally the ooay or a criminal alter he is executed j is given to his , relatives. Hicks, , Guiteau's spiritual adviser, got some sort of a will out of him, in which Guiteau left him his bodv as a oequest. 'ihere is no property in a corpse. He had no right to do that sort or thing. 1 found that Micks had made arrangements to have Guiteau's brain examined by a num ber ot experts who Deiieved he was insane. I determined he should not get held of the body for that purpose. I told the warden to hold on to it, and if Hicks made any row about it to nil the comn with quicklime and settle GuiteauTs remains that way I then got first class scientific experts and had Guiteau's brains examined. They reported that his brain was in a sound, healthy condition. After that I didn't care what was done with the body. I never said anything upon the subject officially to the warden, but I think he understood my wishes in the maiter. ' Hicks, I think, did get the body away about a month after the execution." How did he get hold of it?" "Well, it was a case of body- snatching, practically. Guiteau's bodv was buried in the corner of the jail yard, and the authorities there were not very much- interested m protecting it after I had established what 1 wanted to. The government could have stopped any exhibition of Guiteau's remains. 1 think Hicks got the body through his representa tions that he would give ic to tnei Government Medical Museum. I un derstand that he did give it to that institution, and that his bones have since been articulated there though they have never been placed on ex hibition. I think the institution has found them a white elephant. It should never have received them, in the first place. They could not have been used to any scientific advan tage, and to try to get or to receive such relics is more in keeping with the management of dime museums than of a Government scientific es tablishment. I think the authorities there are ashamed of. having them, and that is the reason they have sup pressed all information about tbem. The judicial authorities here never attempted to have any mystery about Guiteau's remains. We washed our hands of the matter when I had Guiteau's brain examined." Stolen from a Miser. John Suttle, an eccentric old miser, hvme near Weston, w. v,a., was robbed on Saturday ot i,buuu. sut tle kept the money in a hollow log in the woods, going occasionally to add to or take from his store of green backs, as occasion might require. On Saturday he went to his novel bank to make a deposit, when he found soma thief had been there before him and stolen the entire sum. Danffhters.
