tf fJi By Wail! H. BKBNARD. WILMtNGTON, N. C: Thursday Mobkutq, March 1,1877. BISHOP HOOD Off COLONIZATION. Biabop Hood, the anti-colonization is, - - addressed a large andlence In the court house on Monday night of last week. Af ter a few introductory remarks, he pitched into the theme -f his lecture, which was LiberiaitsuiAate and pizen fruits. In regard to the latter, the Bishop stated that to eat of the frUlt of that country between i o. n'oitoir anri shadow is certain death. "You can eat the fruit before the sun shines on it, and it becomes feverish before 10 o'clock in the morning or after night fall." Besides this, there are no apples out there, and life without apples, the. Bishop . - ' - miunr TTn armierl t InnPtll tostablish the fact that he had "never in terviewed one man who has been to Liberia and come back that advises us to go there." He thinks that before any one leaves Liberia he is sworn, uot to disclose- any unfavorable facts in regard to that country. But the Bishop saved the sensible part of his ad dress until the last. Then he showed why the colored people should stay here, and why it was best for them to remain. He imm) Knllnf flnltivatwin hotter Mllti VAt inn of the soil and better cultivation of good feeling between the races. He spoke in very favorable terms of Gov. Vance's in augural, and felt sure a brighter and better day was breaking upon the colored man. The Bishop said he used all his private in fluence against Gov. Vance, but said that his address was magnanimous toward the colored people, who, as a mass, voted . against him, and he (the Bishop) wss will ing to risk four years under his administra tion, and urged it particularly upon his co lored friends to banish the idea that they could not live under Democratic rule, ac cept the true situation, and stay at home to dwell in unity and brotherly love together. Concord Bun. We are really glad to read the above. We are pleased to Bee so in fluential a colored man taking such a judicious view of the follies of colo . nizatiou. Bishop. Hood gives his col ored friends a good example as well as erood advice. We tnink we un derstand wbv the colored people in some, sections nave oecome bo dis turbed by the result of the State election. They have been deceived by lying partisans, who have misrep resented the purposes of the whites. We have information that in some sections some debased white men have been operating upon the fears of the negroes to a shameful extent, telling them that Vance's election . t i . - j: would result in their enslavement, and invoking all manner of horrors to alarm and excite the too credu lous and ignorant colored people. A gentleman from Mecklenburg, Virginia, gave us recently the fol lowing incident: Dr. W., a prominent physician of Granville county, tells the following. Early one morning, not long after Vance's election, a ne gro man, a former slave of the Doc tor's, came to bis door and asked for the stable keys. To this strange de mand the Doctor replied, "Why, what do yon want with my stable keys ?" The answer was, "To feed the horses." "What have you to do with ray horses?" The poor negro made this response "You see, mas ter, John Ragland done tole us that we'es all going to be put back in slavery. I didn't want to be fotohed back, so I just brung myself, and I want to stay at de ole place." Is it not a burning shame to play upon the apprehensions and credulity of the negroes after this way ?' John Ragland is a notorious Radical of Granville, and was once or twice in the Legislature, and he knows how to alarm the beings upon whose support he once successfully leant. It is not a matter of surprise that the colored people should desire colo- nization, or indeed any change, if they are thus deceived as to the views and. policy of the whites. We are not surprised that petitions upon the subject of colonization have been sent to the Legislature. We tell the colored people that their liberties are at least quite as secure as are the lihprtips of t.hp whiton "RVnm t.tia r a j u n j , . - A a ITjrnr Fnllv farripH to a nnahlir Kir tha ainlit j " J ItnAvaa of tha draat SiriniHo tharo is no certainty that liberty will lone survive for whites or colored. But, this at least is true: the whites and blacks of the South must long live together, and prosperity and peaoe and happiness are ail wrapped up in the friendliness, confidence and har mony with which they pull together. We assert it as a fact that can be clearly established, that wherever the States in the South have been un der the control of Radicalism there has been neither prosperity nor contentment among the great mass of the colored people. We assert, too, that where the whites have had control, as in Virginia, Tennessee, Kentucky, Georgia, that the negro has prospered, his rights have been respected, and his peace, life and lib erty assured. The man who can be guilty of the cruelty of deceiving and exciting the unsuspecting negroes by inventintr every sort of fearful stories, big with Randolph Tucker, of Virginia,doubt threats and dancers, is ra&U a i u:Lr a' j Aiiti: subject for the striped clothes. It is about tinnrto clip his hair very short. THE NEW YORK WORLD. We have never taken any stock in this paper. It has a bad record is edited by men who Ja,ck prin and ballast. It is now show in ugly temper, and saying some things of the South. It is just kind of sheet that can not appreciate. the highest qualities of our people, and is quite capable, therefore, of misapprehending our aOTtW-TtnTrnWrff i tt Aj ; . 1 Dringing "railing accusations against men in whose shadows the editors of the World are not fit to Bland. The Charleston News and Courier of the 27th has this timely rebuke: "It is not the first time that the World has scolded the South, talking to Southern Democrats as if they were timid children, horn-book in hand. But the World, be fore this, had not told the Southern Defflo crats that they made causeless Wr upon the government fifteen years ago at the in stigation of their own pride and ambition, and were beaten.' Nor had it. accused the Southerners of 'degrading the character of American citizens.' Nor had it taunted South Carolina with 'the meekness with which Wade Hampton submitted to' the recent order of President Grant. These jibes and sneers, at men the latchets of whose shoes the World's writer is not wor thy to unloose, do not. we trust, meet with the approval of the New York Democracy, although there are signs in Washington that the Northern Democrats are dissatisfied with the conduct of the Southern Congress men. What these Northern Democrats fear, whatever it is, will not be made im possible of occurrence by denunciation of the South. "The South has keen true as steel to the National Democracy ! Wade Hampton, free from the encumbrance of the Tildsn electoral ticket, would have been elected Governor of South Carolina by ten thou sand majority. It was the apprehension that Tild.cn would carry the State that caused South Carolina to be garrisoned with troops. Every Federal act, ibterfer ing with a free election and the free instal lation of the Democratic candidates, sprang from the fear that South Carolina would give seven electoral votes to Tilden. The South Carolina Democracy ran the risk, and made the sacrifice, with their eyes open. They hazarded everything for the National Democracy. In return, no single thing was done by the National Democra cy to help us in our mortal struggle." Grant, in his last Sunday talk.con f esses that his policy has been wrong. He has come to the conclusion that it is not the right policy to uphold I State Governments by bayonets when the people of those States are utterly opposed to their rulers. It has taken the retiring bull-dozer a long, long time to find out what was known to every sensible and fair-minded man in the Union. Garfield sues the Cleveland Plain- dealer because that paper stated that the Congressional bull-cjozer attend- ed a negro ball whilst he was dancing , s - , attendance to the two whites and iwu ucgiucB vi due ijuuisiaun xcmiu- i ing Board. -JKelley weht and danced, j too, and he is a better man every ' . 7- , , . . way man trarneia, save in ine matter or Drains. I Our legislators, are timid. They fear to tax dogs and protect sheep. We notice that a bill has been intro duced into the Misaouri Legislature to tax them as follows: "The first dog owned by any individual to be taxed $1, the second dog $2, the third $4, and. every dog over that number $5 each. All bitches to be taxed $5 each, and the owners of dogs to be liable for any sheep destroyed by them. Persons are al lowed twenty-five cents each for killing un licensed dogs." Tbe hard times tell most in the use of luxuries. In 1876 the impor tation of sugar in the United States was about iou,ouu tons less tnan in 1875. Total exports of cane sugar in the .world, 2,140,000 tons. Beet root sugar production is very large and growing. France leads 462,259 tons. Germany next, 346,646 tons. Good.

For the Star. THE WESTERN NORTH CAROLINA RAIL, ROAD. Much has been said and consider able has been written about this rail- rond-a railway in which the State is so largely interested, and yet the public knows very Utile about it. We propose to explain. Like the Wilmington, Charlotte & Rutherford Railroad, it was com menced many rears ago and has made very slow progress. Like the latter road it has cost a great deal of money and paid Very little profit; like the latter it has been sold out for the benefit of its creditors, and is now under new ownership, thought he same parties own it. Will the simi larity continue as to its rapid com pletion ? If we are to judge the fu ture by the past since the. new own ership, the similarity will cot con tinue ; it will be many years before it will cross the State to its western termini -at Paint Rock and Duck town, whereas the Carolina Central was very speedily completed. We have read the report of the Commissioners of its last operations, and also the report of the joint select committee on this road appointed by the Legislature to investigate its af fairs. The commissioners report the gross receipts from earnings at $81,589.30; the total expenditures for operating at $61,419.16; leaving the net receipts at $20,170.14. This shows a cost of operating of over seventy-five and a quarter (75) per cent, of the gross receipts, which seems to be unneces sarily high for such a road, in a coun try of cheap supplies, and when the receipts are o largely from passen gers and mails, viz: From freights, $40,150.70; passen gers, $32,059.98; mails, $6,515.68; passengers and mails, $38,575.66. This shows nearly one-half the re ceipts are from the most pro6table branch of the transportation business Vl wL i .v. .1 . nf npt. rpim nan l .nnii t it uki wt? e h , i.i v nr p. n the construction, it is of the greatest importance that they should be made " Pr 8Qa D5U WW of the most rigid economy should be instituted in the future workingof this xuau. u iiuuubius w wuikuu luemue i machinery (engines and cars) it now j lv ,u" w,c "V .,T road W1" De worn out before the neW rojia ,8 completed, and, if so. bv wnat means can new machinery and iron be supplied? Will the State continue to vote means to supply it ? We believe not. No doubt as the work progresses new business can and will be devel opo but that will be of slow growth, as it is with all new hoes; and at Asheville it will meet a new line competing with it for the Eastern trade. With these views before him, it be hooves the Governor to see that a most economical management of the road ia instituted and maintained. Experienced men should be selected, and nothing left to doubtful experi ment in its operations. With a gross receipt of $80,000 to $90,000 there is but little margin for extravaganoe. Tbe movement on the South. Washington Correspondence Baltimore Sun, 22d. MAKING POLITICS. The movement to build up a white Republican party in the South, to which allusion has been made several times in this correspondence, it is as- certained to day is being vigorously prosecuted by some of the leading men or tbe KepuDiicao party, who hold the closest relations to Governor Hayes. There is now no doubt that immediately alter the election over- tures were made to prominent South- em Democrats, in which it was plain- ly indicated that in the event of Hayes' accession to the Presidency the it ederal patronage in the aouth would be placed at their disposal, if in return any guarantee was afforded that the Republican administration would be supported and the white vote amaea. mese overtures re ceived little if any encouragement from those to whom they were made. After the formation ot the Electo ral Commission, and its partisan de cision in the Florida case, it of course was generally assumed and conceded ediv be th nower behind the throne in the Hayes administration, and the statement made last night that he is to be the Secretary of the Treasury may be repeated with greater confi dence. It may appear strange that after the malignant hostility which he has exhibited toward the South for ho many years, he should now be in favor of a policy of conciliation, but it is nevertheless the fact. It is also said that even Senator Morton has at last, nnma in thp nnnnl noinn that it will be wise to "let up" a little on uie ooam. mere is no aouot whatever that if a Southern Demo crat of prominence can be found who WiU accept a place in the Cabinet of Mr. Hayes he can have it, as distinct intimations to that effect have been Th received from those who, it is be lieved, are fully authorized to speak But it is not likely such a one can be" found. senator nobwood's views. The name of Senator Norwood, of Georgia, has been mentioned in thf connection by some of the Esoutnern nepublicans. J3ut Senator jn orwooa told me to-dav that he did not know what he had done to be spoken of in this manner. He said that if a api net position under Hayes was offered to him, and every man, woinfcn and child in the State of Georgia were to beseech him to accept it as a favor to them, he might do .so, but he should consider it a sacrifice. He' did not see how any Southern Democrat could accept a position of the kind, kmming tfat Hayes was, usurper and would be for the whole four years of his term nothing more than a de facto President. WHAT THEY WANT. Another very prominent Demo cratic Senator was approached by several Republican Senators, who said to him that Hayes desired to ex tend the olive branch to the South, and, said they, "What is it you Southern people want ?" The Sena tor replied, "YY want none or your Cabinet positions, nor big offices, but we want you to take your feet from off our necks, to treat us as equals, to show that you have some confi dence in us. We want you to take away your troops and let us regulate our local affairs just as you regulate your local affairs. We will Obey the Constitution and the laws and pro tect the rights of all with as much fidelity as you do, and we only ask that we be allowed to have the go vernments which we have elected. The South has one hundred and thirty eight electoral votes, and she has no favors to ask of any administration. If she is put, on an equality with the rest of the pion she can take care of herself." It may be regarded as almost cer tain that the plan to get a prominent Southern Democrat cannot succeed, and must be abandoned. But it is said that in the distribution of the lo cal offices in the South, Gov. Hayes is determined to appoint good meu, even if he has to take red-bot Demo crats, and it is certain that in most localities in the South one of these things must follow the other. South ern Congressmen say they think it very probable that Democrats in their section will take local offices if tendered them, but that it will be Wlth tha distinct understanding that they are not thereby expected to ab- 3ur th"r Pan7 fealt7- CAPTIONS Of tne Attn and ttesolatlon, by tbe General Assembly at slaa of '76-'7T.
