. (rectal Cor. naiiy Review ) . .
WisiiiKGTOX. 1). C. Mch. 3, 1887.
The Kcal politicians are a?ain at fe
ver heal ovr the nomination of a Mas
sachuselfa negro to succeed the un
bleached American from Albany, un
confirmed, bat holding over as Record
er of Deeds lor this Distrii t. The Sen
ate committee has reported adversely
upon this nomination also, and it is
thought the Senate will ratily their ac
tion. The matter ha3 been complica
ted by the appointment of the new
nominee by the old at his deputy, and
it looks as "if they intend, between
hem, to bold the fort. As Matthews1
appointment is held to expire to-inor-ro-
it may be thU ha b pe3 the
new appointee, confirmed or uncon
firmed, will appoint him as his deputy.
The appointment i3 much discussed
and 'cussed" here, and has caused
much bitterness os feeling among wh.te
tolks generally wjtnout regard 10 party
aO't'iations. They ray that Mr, Cfeve
land is under no oblieations to tbo nc
groe. He caibo into oflice not only
without their assisteiice but they viited
solidly against him. He owes them
nothing and his ilicial recognition of
he race is gratuitous and iMVnsive as
well as uijust to those who' did elect
him.
.There is another side to this question,
ho reverb which it is well to look at.
The negroes have been taught, ever
since they have been freemen, thai if
the Democratic party should ever get
control of the government ihey would
Gte reensl&v' (1 "ou know by whom
they were thus taught, and for what
purpose. That they were deceived
makes no difference. Tney be.
libVHcl it, or the masses of mem did,
and, hence, when Mr. Ctevelaud was
electf d the scare was almost universal.
A delegation of the race was appointed
Co wait upon him at Albany and ask
him what he intended to do with tbem
He told ihem that the Democratic
Party bad neither the power or the
wish to reestablish slavery, and that
they should fare no' worse under his
administration than that of. hi Repub
lican predecessors. This is the pledge
he seems to bo carrying out. A negro

President Hayes brought Fred Douglas
down herefrom Rochester, N. Y , and
iade him U S. Marshal.
Rut, notwithstanding hi miserable
caul about the "poor negro." he did'ot
want him too close to himse'f. and so
devdved the personal service upon
another officer, a white man. and Fred,
was not allowed to come '"between the
wind and his nobility " Garfield trans
ferred him to another oflice. Recorder
of Deeds, and there Mr. Cleveland
found bim.
Now, Mr. Daniel R Goodloa made a
suggestion . at the time of Douglas
appointment that, if acted upon, would
have cured the evil, and have saved all
this trouble. His proposition was tbat
Douglas shoaJd secure all the endorse
ment he could at his home in Roches
ter, and that the President should give
him an oflice in Rochester.
When the Democrats of -the District
called upon the President in regard to
the local offices, he asked them it they
did'nt.know some good Democratic
negro here that he could appoint to
succeed Douglas, and they very fraukly
told him tbat they could not pee the
necessity for any snch appointment.
He told tbem that he could find one in
New York, and he did so.
There is something of the ring of
''Old Hickory" in the Grmncss mani
fested by Mr. Cleveland in following
his convictions of right. One can N
most bear the old hero's: "By t lie
eternal.5'
The nomina'ion of a successor to
Hazen. the Third Asseutant Pos:
in aster General, created a dealif sensa
tion in the bureau cf that functionary.
Everything then has remained in statu
quo there. anl this move is suggestive?

who had become quiet of nerve anil

TUK TOWN OF CHADDOUKX. .
! is ju-t live yeers ago since ground
kh ti'st troken at Chadbourn for the
erection at that. r-iniot the wm ks ot the
Ciiadb'irii 'Mill inl Ri' way Company.
F-r soiun liuu: pnst the necessities of the
miliinir business of Messrs. James H
Cuadbourn & C in this ciiy. required
m re facilities thanAVere to be had here.
Tlirre were rtlers cominsr in which re
quirnf timber which should bn. es
pecially selected for those orders and
henc? it was thought, best to find a
large tract of. well-timbered land not
far Irani the city and to erect thereon
tho necessary mills. After a careful
inspection the spot where now stands
the prosperous town of Chadbourn was
selected and 12,000 acres pf heavily
timbered land in the vicinity was pur
chased. Chadbourn is 53 miles lrom
Wilmington aid has tosday, in the be,
ginning of its sixth year, some five
hundred inhabitants. It is a regularly
incorporated town and the people there
seem happy, prosperous and contented.
There are three mercantile houses
there, all doing a good business, those of
the Chadbourn Mill and Railway Com
pany, and Messrs J. A. Brown and
High & Thigpen, There is also a news
paper published, tbete the Chadbourn
Times', of which Mr, H. S. McEachern
is the editor. "
We do not know the capacity of the
mill. It is of Stern's Latest improved
mills and has the newest hnd. best-tested
appliances for securing 'speed, accu
racy and economy in its operations. It
is under the supervision of Mr. James
II. Chadbourn, Jr., the resident mem
ber of the firm. There is no waste
whatever about this mill. Even the
sawdust is utilized. The scraps, or ref
use, we believe it ia called, is all dis
posed of, most of- it being sent to tins
City where it is purchased by the water
works company, by the compjresscs and
by the ice factory, who all use it for
fuel.
Tnore are a larae number of bands
employed by the mill and railway com
pany, who 3cetn to us to be a3 happy
and contented a set of laborers as we
have found anywhere. The regular,
pcrmaneut employees have all their
own houses, which they own them
selves, the company having furnished
them with the land at a low price and
assisted then in the construction of
their buildings.. Attached to each ol
these" is a roomy garden spot, largo
enough, in that rich soil, to grow vege
tables in plenty for home consumption.
The men take much pride in the culti
vation of these little patches as well as.
in adding to and improving their
bouses.
' TUE W. J. & C- K- K. V
The Wilmington, Chadbourn & Con
way R. R , had its origin in a short line
which was, constructed originally for
tho express purpose of hauling logs to
the mill. This was gradually extended
farther and farther into the lorcst until
finally it began .to carry freight and
passengers. Then ft occurred' to. Un
enterprising projectors that the road
might be extended to Conway, and the
work was then .pushed -rigorously ua
til now the line extends int'i South Car
olina, twenty miles from Chadbourn,
and within 17 miles of Conway..- In a
tew weeks work will be resumed and
pushed on towards Conway, which
point it is hoped.and expected will be
reached this maimer We took a ride
on a special train and in"the Pre?idenl?s
car" oyer the entire line, as far as com
pleted. We found it to be a smooth,
easy riding road, laid with GO pound
rails and with a 3olid. perfectly level
real bed. notwithstanding the fact that
some of it was built only last summer

gather at this point every (lay to greet
the arrival and departure of the train
and among tbem on each occasion are

THE CONSTKLCriON FOKCK
The company now have at work on
this road 60 hands, under U o efficient
road masters, thus making ten miles to
the section. These gangs seem to be
thoiough good workers and to be ex
ceplionally well-equipped lor railroad
construction. No liquor is allowed to
be sold in Chadbourn and none is sold
(we believe) any where on the line of
the road and hence the section masters
are able to keep their forces well in
hand. "
In the near future the equipment of
this road is to greatly increased. A
handsome new coach is to be put on
and new freight cars are now being
built by the Company at Chadbourn.
They have every facility there for this
work as the'material 13 always at hand
There are uow two tine and powerful
locomotives on the road.
Tfli: OFFICERS-
The officers of this road are as foK

Chief Engineer II. Chadbourn,

Auditor Jos. B. Cadbourn.

THE COUNTItr.
And now, a few words as to Iho
country on the line of this road. Wrc
had expected to pass through a low pine
couutiy. with but few points in its
layor lor agriculture. We found itjugt
the contrary. It is a rich soil nearly
every foot of the way from Chadbourn
to Ioris. There seems to be a rich lop
oil with a thick substratum of clay , all
along the line of the road. Some old
farmers tell us tbat it is as fine an agri
cultural country as can be found any
where in this Slate. Mr. Chadbourn
has a farm near the town on which Jast
year ho raised a bale of cotton to the
acre and one farmer uear him got last
Fall 400 bushels 'of potatoes lrom one
acre. These are facts, well attested, i
and some of thcie' days "we expect to
see on tbu line of tbat road some of tho
finest farms in the country
