WILMINGTON, N. C: -
Wednesday Evening, Dec. 15, 1880
EVENING EDITION.
AiuEBicAN sNOBOCKicy.
Mr. Frederic Gregory Forsyth, the
originator of the Grand Aryan-Blue-Blood
Combination Show of the
Nineteenth Century, has been heard
from. He writes a communi
cation to the Baltimore American
on the "Aryan Order." He makes
an explanation or its design which
has been misrepresented, according
to the founder. He says:
"The purpose of the order, which is a
social one, declared in its constitution, ,is
'io promote social virtues; to reprobate
fashionable vices and follies, and this, to
the degraded vision of those who feed the
minds of the American public, is 'soob
oery.' "Our process of realizing a state of ideal
virtue is by imitation by imitating the
grandest examples the human race can of
fer n9; and if any of those examples have
occurred among our own as do occur
ws record the examples as a stimulus to
those who believe themselves to be pos-
sesstju or gooa ana magnanimous attn-
bute9.
"But this process of imitation must be
gin with childhood, when the mind ia im--pressible
and the form undermined. It is,
therefore, in course of time our intention to
establish for our children a university in
which paid instructors are not to teach, but
those of us who have the love of work in
our hearts, united with care for the well
being of our charges."
We copy what Mr. F. G. F. haa to
say that our readers may have a
further understanding of this great
Combination -of Aryan Americans
that is to electrify the world, trans
form human nature, make society of
ideal purity, and insure the highest
development of the species. Surely,
d fcociety or Order, be it called the
sacred Order of Empire" or the o,

of Mr. G. F. C.'s letter says im
pressively: "The unknown heroes of the coal mines,,
the common Bailors, chevaliers of the police
and fire department, obscure clergymen,
the mute, inglorious Miltons and bloodless
Cromwells of 'the-lower orders,' that the
Aryans would not condescend to notice,
might furnish grander examples of forti
tude, patience, faith, incorruptible integri
ty and devotion to duty than can be found
in the books of the peeracp. These are the
true "unpaid professors" of the great Uni
versity of Human Life; and if the haughty,
sway-backed, cold-nosed Aryans would sit
humbly at their feet, they would learn
something good for them to learti and for
get much that, for their souls' health, they
ought to forget. It is difficult for the
average American to look upon the pro
posed 'Aryan American' order, and the
proposed HeraldsUo)lege, and the 'Sacred
Order of the Empire,' as other than a huge
joke. But already there are enough of re
putable names in it to show that the plan
has touched one of the weak spots in
American character that ingrained flun
kyism that delights in titles and pedigrees.
The whole thing is stupid and not
worth noticing. We were led to sap
pose first that it was a seoret order
that meant to destroy if possible our
liberties, but it is only the disordered
development of a fellow who would
rather be the son of Charles IL, or
some other debauched King, by one
of his mistresses, than the son of an
honest, horny-handed yeoman and a
pure, good woman, who could not
boast of "blue-blood" in their veins.

county paper one time a statemeat of
every dollar they have expended. It
says properly, we think, that they
should fix the schedule of priceM- at
reasonable and just rates, soaa to
provent excessive charge od the part
of the papers. It says:
"If there is any one public thing that the
people are interested in more than all oth
ers it" is in the question of what goes with
the taxes they pay. They want to know it
all along as the taxes are being used, and
the idea of posting up at the court house
door, once a year, an itemized exhibit of
county finances is supremely ridiculous."
We have been reading, with ex
ceeding pleasure, the quaint sayings,
the bright humor, the clever sketch
ing, the tender reminiscences of
"Uncle Keraus," and have found the
adventures of "Brer Rabbit" and
"Brer Fox" and the remainder of
the characters of the fables really
delightful. There is a rich store
house of genuine enjoyment in this
new Southern book. We are glad,
really, to see how cordially it is liked
in the North. The best papers aro
