Remlvcd, That the material advancement and solid prosperity of the State of North Carolina mnst be substantially based upon the improve ment of its system of Agriculture, upon the development and application of its resources for manufacturing, and above all upon the en lightenment of the people of the State through the influences of education by which alone they can become conscious of, and avail them aelve of their superior advantages. Resolved, Thnt no more reaily and effectiTe, because all pervading, means for the diffusion of information exists than through the instru mentality of the f rese. Reaobsed. That this Convention earnestly urge upon each conductor of a public journal in the State tbe recognition of the true mission of the press, and that it regard the material interests of tbe State as embraced in iu educational en lightenment, its agrirnltuial improvement and its industrial development as paramount to the less weighty, if more attractive consideration of partisan politics; and that the press of the State be urged to collect and disseminate all the information' embraced in those subjects which may be obtained in their respective lo calities, by which our own eitisens may be in formed and encouraged, and population from abroad be attracted into onr territory. . t , rr. i . . 1 . . 1 n jtcaMveo, xnai ii is me sense ot in is conven tion that we reiterate and recommend the pre amble and resolutions adopted by the Associ ation at its first annual meeting in resard to inducing healthy immigration into the State of North Carolina.

Resolved, That we recommend the appoint ment of a committee to bring this matter in its proper light before our next Legislature. Resolved, That the Press of the State, as ex pressed by this Association in Convention as sembled, be requested to encourage and foster the development of our resources, and that we extend our heart v cooperation either to the industrious mechanic or the capitalist who will invest his mentis in mechanical pursuits. Resolved, 1 hat in view ot the vast importance ! of the early development of tbe rich and valu able mineral resources of the State of orth Carolina, it is the duty of the Press of the State to aid in dtssemminating information in regard to the same. Rctoleed. That this Convemion heartilv en- dome the aeneimenls enunciated by our Presi dent in his opening remarks on yesterday on the participation of the press in the approach ing campatgn, and that while tbe Convention recognizes the necessity of zeal and vigor in the conduct of the approaching campaign, vet cour tesy and fair dealings are not incompatible with the requisite degree of animation, and that this Convention, therefore, discountenance the use of personalities and opprobrious language, one to another, and recommend adhesion to the rules of conrtesv which is tbe guide of gentle men in all the relations of social intercourse.

The owners of the property were unable to pay tbe taxes and the property was offered' I for sale without finding bidders who were willing to profit by the misfortunes of their neighbors, and accept tax titles which will most likely prove to be worthless.
