A meeting of the colored people was recently held at Henderson with a view of establishing a col ored Orphan Asylum to be called "The Laptist Association of North Carolina."

Evans has been sentenced to three years in the house of; correction for having a plurality of wives. Evans has lieen hugging and kissing around gener ally. It is said that the chief reason why the .Cincinnati ."Enquirer" is so hostile to Geo, II.

Judge Uoadly's Philidelphia physician says that he is suffering from "excessive political enthusi asm." Editor Walterson pronounces the story of the recor.c'liation be tween Tilden and Kelly "the worst of bosh." Mr. Blaine is generous enough to say that his bitter enemy, Conk- Hng, is the brains of the Republi can party in New York. Lyman Abbott was nominated for Governor by the Democratic State Convention of New Jersey ; the Albright men threaten to bolt. Mr. George .William Curtis de scribes Mr. Edmunds as "the one Republican in - tlie country who is universally acceptable to the par ty." ! : David A. Jenkins still raises his voice against Mott,his Liberal Anti-Prohibition lolly, and the rascali ties of the Mott, Cooper whiskey ring, says the "Carolinian." The Democrats in the First Dis trict will hold their convention at Edenton on" the 2nd o October to nominate a candidate- lor Congress. We hope to see Jas. Edwin "Moore nominated. ' . . - Gen. Grant says he would rather see. Conkling President -tljan any man in the country, But he will never work as hard to mak$ Conk ling President as Conkling did to make him President. : Mr. Carlisle says it takes 99 to nominate in the Democratit ciu ens and he has more than that number pledged. He doubt if Randall will run unless he caiiget some Western man to break , nto Carlisle's vote. .. - Sugar coated taffy: Col. Ltt W, Humphrey says that Gov. Jir: vis has growji more in the last to'r years than any jmblic man of hW "acquaiutance,- says the "Souther ner." Cob II. thinks him a broa level headed, strong man. Mr. Hendricks, when he was in New York last week, called on Mr. Tilden, at Grey Stone. The chat' ter of venerable gray.-lK-ards, if some Asmodeau reported for the press could have obtained it. would have afforded a nine, day gossip for the country. The "old ticket" no doubt went over the old racket of '70 together. In New Jersey there is an editor yvho runs a republican daily ueyvs paper and a Democratic weekly. Iu one journal he violently attacks the political pi iiiciples enunciated by the other, and sometimes ey en goes- so far as to assail the charac ter of the editor of the other sheet. This course seems to please the readers, and does not lay the edi tor liable to a Hogging or libel suits. Ex-Governor St. Tohn,ol Kansas, tihinks that David Davis must be regarded as a Presidential proba bility. He says his head is so well balanced and his record so clear that he would capture the entire conservative, vote of both parties. And he is so popular at the South, says Governor St. John, that he would ..'very, likely carry several Southern States. We have -never heard Governor St. John spoken of as a joker, but if he really gave expression to such an opinion, he must have developed a fmul of humor in his composition.-' or liis previous ettorts to inaugurate pro hibition as a national issue have turned his head. David Davis could doubtless poll the full vote of his party, but that has at no time amoiititjed to over one vote, which was in the safe kceniiisr of the Judge himself. No serious appre hension need be felt that he is likely to seriously! interfere with auy of the very numerous and promising booms which enterpris ing statesmen are now tenderly nursing.

When the call came for soldiers he responded, enlisting in the Fourth Regiment and served throughout the rebellion, lie was in Ander sonville, Libby, Belle Isle and Florence prisons. At the first named he was sentenced to be shot July 17, 1801. The night preced ing the day on which he yvas to meet his death he, with seven others, managed to escape. They managed in the darkness to get close to the guard, when a com panion named Bob Allison, of Connecticut, threw a preparation of fine tobacco and pepper into the At the conclusion of his war ex perience Wallace went on the plains as 'a scout, carrying with him m his body nine ballets, seven of which can be distinctly felt. During a fight with, a party of Apache Indiang ' he had a personal encounter with a chief of the tribe, named Osceoneo. The fight was hand to hand and meant death to one or both. Wallace received a" dagger thrust through the palm of his hand and was also held by his throat. He then drew his revol ver with his right hand, and, twisting his free arm across his back, shot the chief dead. The knife with which he was stabbed was combined with a revolver, having in one weapon a scalping knife, dagger and shooting-iron. In the handle was a chamber for poison; with which Jto make, the work of the instrument more dan gerous. As mementoes,' of this fight the scout carries with him the min iature arsenal described and - the scalp, of Osceoneo.J The wonderful markmauship of Charles Wallace is the talk ot the town, and his exploits in this di rection are ably seconded by his wife. Mrs. Wallace will at a dis tance ol 125 feet hold a ten-cent piece betvveeu her lips and her husband will knock it out of her mouth every time without harm. This is regarded as the most diffi cult shot ever made, and has been done here several times since their advent in town. A common .tack is placed on a white surface, point towards him, and Mr. ,Wallaca will drive a bullet on the point nine times out of ten. He will stand 100 yards away, hold a ten cent piece between his fingers, which his wife will shoot out with a re volver. Marlboro letter in the "Boston Globe." Offering man Sacrifices. Tho eastern part of this county is intensely excited over the action of a man crazed by religion. Some V months ago Silvester Knott, a well. to-do farmer living in a compara tively isolated spotjon the shore of Lake Erie, 'attended a meeting bf the Salvation Army at Franklin lie became very much excited, and Anally insaue. For two yveeks past he has Wandered up and down the shore, declaiming on religious tlemes, picturing the horrors of the, Judgment Day, and calling urbu sinners to worship God or be eternally lost. Vesterday morning he planted a larjre cross in the woods upon whfphtonaii his eight year old soij believing the boy would be tormented in hell hre torever un less die died the death of the Savin"-. With almost superhu man strength Knott held the lad fitmlj- while driving a large nail tbroumi the little lellow's Land, perfettly regardless of his piteous cries for mercy. The dreadful work! was inteirupted by some wood jcutters who happened to be passing. Leaving his son hang ing, the maniac lied, first striking down one ol the rescuers with hammer. He leaped Into the lake, and asihe search for him proved fruitless it was thought that he had beea droyvned. This was not the , case however. Before miduighfc the crazed man returned smashed in the door of the house, and knocked Mrs. Knott insensi ble at a Single blow. " Enteriug a chamber in which his only daughter, Minnie, a girl of 17 lay asleep, he bound her hand and foot and carried her to a lonely place in rue torest, where huud- ureus oi ctrds ol wood were piled An altar ras quickly built, and upon it tht madman secured his child. -'Eren as Abraham ' did with Isaacs will I offer vou as burnt offering unto God," chanted the madmsn, setting the funeral pyre on lire. The flames soon reached the limbs of the girl, whose shrieks ol tgoi y and prayers for a most inert i lu l death were music to the madman's ears. Dancing around the Leap on which lay the girl, he implored the Almighty to accept the sacrifice as atonement for the sinful deeds committed by him iu past years. He added fresh fuel to the altar. But help arrived iu time to pre-, vent the consummation of the fear ful design.

I ST AT, BE IHI COISTRT IMMIGRATION. OUR HERITAGE GOING INTO THE HANDS OF STRANGERS. A PLEA FOB RESTRICTION. A friend sends as the following note and clipping from the "Zion's Watchman.'.' A it touches npon a subject whieh is of the highest im portance to all our people we gladly give it space in our columns) and commend it to the considera tion of our reader. Editoe. Editor Advance: Dear Sir : Where are our Leg islators, Congressmen and ruling men who the people look to for guidance and protection I Standing id'e ami looking comolacieDtlv ou and seeing the noblest heritage the sun ever shone- upon going into the control of straugers, the scum and serf of all nationalities filling up our blood bought A merica by the million yearly in addition to our rapid native increase. At the present ratio of Increase in the next decade you will behold the spectacle of six hundred million of inhabitants of all nationalities and anguages embracing the thriftless the lazy and drunkards, just such as every nation is glad to get rid of by paying their passage across the ocean and lauding them on Ameri can soil. Such a movement may be good in some respects but death to our posterity which Washington fought for and our revolutionary fathers died for. Solomon says "the wise or prudent mau sees dan ger afar off and hidethor prepare to meet it." Our Agricultural Bureau has "employed at remunerative wages an Emissary or Agent to stand at the ports and when such emigrants land enumerated in the above they arc courted and persuaded to come to North Caroli ua and get fat on milk and honey and a salubrious climate. For God's sake and for the sake of Wash iugton and our rapid increasing posterity instruct our agent to ad vise these emigrants to go an other course as we have as much such society as we want, I hope some able pen wjll come to the froutjSiich as the larin ng man, and speak out for posterity. Charity should commence at home and the first law of nature is self perserva tion. Let America take care of her paupers Europe, Asia and Africa can do likewise. Watchman. Yes, in a few years, says the "Zion Watchman," the heritage of our chudren wdl he given to strangers, if the present rate of im migration continues. It is simply astouishing how the people f f all lands yearly Hock to these shores True many of them are industrious, but others are hopelessly lazy. We read an item the other day of fifty men being sent out from New York to work on New England farms, situations having been procured. But iu a few weeks they were all back iu the city, preferring a life of street-begging to the comforts of fresh air, happy homes iu the Coun try, nd a life of honest industry The following from the "Christian Advocate" is worthy a careful, read inir: Again and again have the readers of this paper been in formed that at present, and for several months past, the immigra tion to this country far exceeds all former precedent. . It is going on, and with a prospect of still further increase. Twenty or more millions of acres of land have been granied to railroad corporations; individ uals and companies of individual.' have possessed themselves of large bodies of lands in different states and territories, for purposes of speculation. They are anxious to sell. Radroad corporations are anxions to sell ; hence, extraordina ry inducements are being held out to bring immigrants to these shores and they come by hundreds, by thousands, by teus of thousands,by hundreds of thousands, and by the million ; and these yvith the natural increase of population, are filling our country more rapidly than ever belore- Soon the most valuable of our public domain will all be in the hands of individuals; and what then? We shall have taken the heritage of our children and given it to the stranger, and the childreu left homeless. "But this immigration will de velop the resources ol the country." Perhaps so. Land-sieciilators want profit, raiload companies want business, and they urge on the immigration. But has it uever occurred to them, that it is as true now as it was in the days of Solo mon that, -'when riches increase they are increased that eat them; and what good is there to the owners thereof, save the holding of them with their eyes!" Civil and social jieace and prosperity do not depend alone upon wealth. Mere wealth alone tends to arrogance and oppression of the poor. Al ready do laboring men deem it S, THY GOD'S. AND TRVTI1S ucveaaary, even in mis country as it is, to form alliances and leagues under different names to resist what they regard as the encroach ments and oppressions of realth, and the further this goes the worse it will become. There is not, there never hjs been, nor is it at all like ly thee Vf'U be, a country on earth in which the people are weaLhy. The tendency is for wealth to glide nnder the control of the few, and to leave the many in a state of comparative dependence; and facts show that the gap between the rich and the poor is wider and more impassable in thickly than thinly settlpd countries. Besides a large proportion of the immi grants, now ocking to this coun try, come with very vague and in definite notions as to the real char acter of civil liberty. Having been accustomed to less liberal and even oppressive forms of government, and broken loose from the time rotten institutions of the Old World, they come here with the feeling, if not with the firm be lief, that they may do as they like and, if we cannot speedily absorb them, they will absorb us, and the character of oar Christian civiliza tion will be changed. So the pe cuniary interests of the country as a whole, our social and our civil interests, all demaud that a res triction be placed npon this immi gration. These are no idle words. Let the subject be considered in all its parts, in all its relations, and in all its local sequences thiuk of the influence already exerted by the foreign element in our society particularly in regard to the ob servance of the Sabbath, and the use of. intoxicating liquors. It Is in the memory of men still living, when such a drink as that now called "lager beer" was scarce, if at all kno.vn in this country ; but now think ot the hundreds of thousands of barrels that are annually' con sumed among us, and with what effects ! It is vain to try and ig nore the fact that we are fast drift ing away from the principles on which our Government was estab- pshed, when personal virtue, honor, sense of justice, love of truth and recognition of God and duty of obedience to him, yvere regarded as the foundation principles. Theu think of what the future is likely to be if this class of the community continue to receive accessions at the rate of a million or more a year. If the people understand their true interesta,.and desire to promote them, they had better at once order their agents and represeutatiy-es in the Federal Con gress to put restrictions on this wholesale immigration, anI to do it at once ; otherwise they will be too late. There is no other country in the world that would permit such a thing, or if there be it is a country to which few yvonld care to go. In all this we mean nothing con trary to the spirit of full justice, patriotism, ph'lauthropy, or of Christijuiity. It is not to oppress nor to add to the sufferings of the poor, the oppressed, the down trodden of other lands, that w-e WMild have restrictions put upon immigrations, but it is to save this country from the evils that beset others. We would not throw straw in the way of any man doing the best he can for himself by all or HuyTionest means, but when he is consciously or unconsciously planning to pull down others, to his level the ease Is different ; and, in th;s respect, what is true of indi viduals, is equally true of nations, There are now nations of people who would be well pleased to rid themselves of part of over-crowded population.'' But yvhom would they send away ? Of whom would they prefer to be rid T The more indus- trious, the more thrifty, the more productive, the best and most use ful citizens ! Is that probable ? Is it politic or human like ! No. As every one knows, it is the less thrifty, the less useful part, and the society that atcually burdens the whole, of whom they would first be rid; and these are they who w.II, and do, receive the most encouragement to migrate. In re ference to them the half suppress ed cry is, "They are a burden, raise money and ship them to the United States as emigrants. We cannot get them there as panpers though paupers they may be am! it will be cheaper to us to give money and seud them there than to keep them here." That is the talk, and that, to some extent, is the practice. Let land-speculators, railroad-eompa-uiej or subsidized newspairs prate as they may about necessity for and benefits of immigration, here are some of its natural and necessary eonsequeuees. Look at them and see how you like them. Yes, ye toiling thousands, who love yonr country and hope ere you die to find and leave a home for your children, look at these re sults, and then say to the men who, too often, alas ! misrepresent you in Congress! "Gentlemen, you have placed restrictions on Chinese immigration. Now go and do likewise for all other nations." " MR. JAY GOULD. THE MILLIONAIRE ABOUT HIS EARLY" TELLS LIFE. AX IXTERESTIXG UTOliY, Tears glistenedjn Jay Gould's eyes and there was a suspicious buskiness in his voice as he nar rated some of the trials of his ear lv life before the Senate Sub-committee on Education and Labor on yvednesday. . A large audience listened in perfect silence to the interesting story yvhich Mr. Gould told. The .busy millionaire had promised to appear before the com mittee at 10 o'clock, but it was nearly 11 before he arrived.' He wore a modest business suit of dark material, and, with the exception of a plain watch-chain a uf cuff-but tons, no jewelry was visible on his person. Senator Blair asked Mr. Gould if he had 'rend the Senate resolution 'under which the com mittee was conducting its investi gation of the subject of the relations between labor "aud capital. Mr. Gould shook his head sileutly and the Senator read the resolutions to him.- "Now, Mr. Gould," said the Senator, "you are a mau ol large experience in enterprises involving capital and labor. Won't you please give the committee lis full a statement as "possible of your personal career, . beginning with yonr early life aim touching iqwn the businessmen terprises with yvhich you have been connected. Mr. Gould said that there was very little in fhis career that he thought would interest the com mittee or the public, but he was willing to tell all that there yvas. He was born in Koxbury, Delaw are County, In this State, a place about 150 miles from New York City, on May 27, 183G. nis father was a small farmer and kept a dairy of 20 cows. The future millionaire, being the only boy of the family ,was required to bring the, cows up in the morn ing and to help his sister milk them at night. He had trudged through the roads footed and had 'got thistles often his feet. It was a life that he did not like, and one day lie said to his father that he wanted to go to school. The school-house : was about 12 or 15 miles away. His father thought he was too young, but as he persisted iu his request, the old man finally told liiin that he was not worth much at home and he might do with his time as he pleased. The next day lie start ed off. lie yvas then aliout 11 years old. He found a good-natured blacksmith, who let him live with him and go to to school, he in return for his board writing up tin; blacksmith's books. After going to school about a year he got n sit nation iu a country store, and many a time he got up early to study. He had uii early fondness for mathe-aatics, and after a while thought he would like to be a stir veyori He heard of a '' man in Uls tei' couuty yvhowas making a map of that county, and he went to.' him and asked him if he did, not Jwant some help. Thejnau engaged him as an assistant, agreeing to give him $20 a month and pay hisjljoard bills. He received, at the outset only a sufficient amouut of money to pay his railroad fare to the point yvhere he was sent. His employer wanted him to go through Ulster couuty from house to house, collect ing information and getting his board and lodgiug . wherever he could.
