E5y TVIliIiXAITJ H. BERNARD. WILMINGTON, N. C. Satiteday Evening, May 22, 1886. EVENING EDITION. A NOTABLE PUBLICATION. The Northern States are very care ful in gathering all records concern ing themselves. The little State of Rhode Island, not so very much larger than "Wake county, has proba bly a hundred volumes or more pub lished that concern her history. North Carolina, like many other Southern States, has been careless and neglect ful to some extent. She has been parsimonious, even niggard, in her expenditures to gather documents that illustrate her annals and to pub lish them. We have no doubt that in England to-day there may be found many important documents that throw needed light upon the early and even upon the revolutionary his tory of the Colony. They all ought to be copied and published by the tState. It is surely money well spent that preserves and circulates the facts of a people's history. There is very much in North Carolina history to cause the true native to hold up his head with modest pride. The best ac count of the American war we ever read is in Lecky's "History of the Eighteenth Century." We are satis fied that he has given a much more correct account of the-condition of affairs and of what really happened than either the Democratic Bancroft or the Whig Hildreth. Mr. Lecky had access to all American and Eng- , lish documents, and he is singularly judicial in temper and tone. We are reminded of all this by the labors of the able gentleman who how fills tfie office of Secretary of ; State, Col. William L. Saunders, i'..'' : -who was our school-fellow in the V" '-J forties. But the Colonel is a widower -' " and we will not particularize. He has devoted seven years to the tedious work of preparing for publication the Colonial Records of North Carolina. Col. Saunders has published thus far, we think, some four hundred pages, royal octavo. There is no overestimating the value of the doc uments thus far edited with intelli. j 't';'. . gent painstaking and printed. They I fC cover the portion of our history as a figeople the least known. Let these fTSfS documents as gathered, annotated i i V : and published by the Trustees of the , If State Xibrary under the careful over- , ' sight of a most competent editor be I ggSi studied byJtne people of North Caro , ) j jJilina and they will be informed above "'" f Vviil be people of most other Southern States The materials of history are V:i j ere gathered. The history itself is I fli .C V- .L limnh.. TI71--i TT- t M I - . . "V wjikbcii uucaiici, v Iiai XJaWKS aid was invaluable. What some other ! f A ' .writers of the State have done from 1 : tim'e to time will prove of the utmost . ' ' help to him "who shall assay to tell J t;. the true story of. a resolute, brave, ; liberty-loving people. : We have not I . t ' i-'v "-"' jreu w go careiuny ..over; :.these records these precious evidences of the past, but we hope to do so before, the year ends. We avail ourselves of - a well .considered notice of the Colonial Records in. the Raleigh Netos-Observer of a recent date. It says: "The work now in Droccss Of publica tion not only lays open to the public the material collected by the industry of Swain, and the public records preserved in our ar chives, buta great mass of valuable matter obtained from England, mucn oi wmca has been only lately discovered among me Sbaf tsbury papers . No paper now extant, of which there is any information, has es caped the watchfulness or Col. saunaers. The publication, tDereiore, is ui me inv est interest. "While Col. Saunders' task has only been one of thorough investigation and in telligent compilation and arrangement; yet he proposes to tppend a lew notes in meir nrorter- nlace. directing attention to Buch errors as newly discovered testimony has led him to detect in the existing histories of our people," We must hope that before the present century closes God will raise up some man of parts who will give his years to the preparation of a his tory of his native North Carolina. He ought to be a scholar, a worker, a most conscientious student, and a master of a simple, pure, lucid style. He ought to be so enthralled with his work his magnus opus so in love with truth that he will have "no friends to reward and no enemies to punish," but his sole aim shall be to tell the truth to present to coming generations in clear narrative a faithful account of the past and to reproduce as far as pos- sible a vivid, realistic picture of the manners and customs of the people in the seventeenth, eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. He ought to do for North Carolina what Mr. Parkman has done so ably, so excel lently for Massachusetts. An ordi nary man will be sure to produce an ordinary history. A prejudiced and time-serving man will be sure to write a political "stud-book" or a one-sided, unfaithful account. Nothing but a broad-gauged, intellectual man will do. He must be catholic in opinion, generous in impulse, and love the truth. The ereatest work of historical genius, as we hold, in the Jast hun dred years is "Green's Larger Histo ry of the English People." The most remarkable work in historic literature of which we have knowl edge is Green's "Short History." It is indeed a marvel of condensation, of mental grasp, of penetration, of learning, of pictorial power, of, beau tiful and lucid writingr. ' The man who will take that work as a model and write the History of the People of North Carolina in the same -en lightened spirit and with something of the ability that characterizes it, will have indeed achieved a most notable success, and will have erected to his own memory a monument that will defy the corrosions of time and .the forgetfulness of centuries. McMaster has made an attempt to model an historical work on Green. He servilely copied certain passages in Macaulay and attempted to treat of the people after the manner of Green, but what a tremendous fail ure. It teems with bitter personal ana political preiudices: witn evi dences of bad taste; with unfairness; with errors; with the most tedious details, and with many sins of omis sion. It is the biggest possible fail ure for a pretentious work, and yet it has a very genuine value of its own. It can not be overlooked, and is a real addition to any library. But like certain so-called histories of North Carolina it must not be relied upon confidently, and to be read with benefit must be read after some thing of full information of the times treated. THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY. On Thursday last the General As Bembly of the PresbyterianCburch in the South met at Augusta, Ga. This is the highest judicatory of that influential denomination. It meets annually and it represents a large and unusually intelligent member ship. It has thirteen Synods and sixty-nine Presbyteries. Its ministers are well educated. All have to take a regular theological course and to be scholars in Greek and Hebrew. Many of its ministers are eminent for learning, for ability, for raenta power, for eloquence. ' A Church that numbers among its clergy such men as Drs. Reade, Hoge, B. M. Smith, Preston, Moore, Miller, Girau deau, Palmer, Dabney, J. R. Wilson, and fifty others of marked ability, who conld be named, is compelled to be a great power for usefulness, for moulding public opinion, and fqr up building the Kingdom of Christ on earth. The General Assembly was organ ized in 1861, the War necessitating such a course. It began with fifty- five ministers and now it- has about one thousand ministers, two thousand one hundred churches and' one hun dred and thirty-five thousand conjmu nicants. There are - now Hvins thir ty-eight.-of those who were at. tho organization ",Rev. Dr. Wilson was of the number. ' fie During the -past year .it raised $27,500 for sustentation; for evan gelistic work, $19,043; for invalid fund $10,797; for colored evangelis tic work $1,312, Sixteen colorod ministers and seminary students were aided. During the year 44 church buildings and. 8 manses were erect ed. For foreign missions the receipts were $73,170.27. There are mis sionaries, 45 native helpers, with 1,616 communicants. For publica tion cause $0,861.07 was raised. Bonds redeemed $8,350. Donations $1,889.69. - Probably Dr. Woodrow's case will be the most exciting event of tho session. He is to be tried for sup posed views upon evolution "that militate against the teaching of the Word of God. AN ESflNENT WITNESS. There are few Bishops among American Episcopalians who deserve to rank with Bishop Littlejohn as a writer and thinker. He deserves to stand high for mental power and ac complishments and he is very well thought of in England. His pub lished works exhibit marked ability. He has just been addressing the twentieth Annual Convention of the Diocese of Long Island, and his re marks were received with applause. We refer to it because of the views he expresses on the subject of educa tional work. He made a very power ful appeal for religious education. Like all wise, reflecting men he sees that the American system in the public as well as in the high schools and colleges is defective. He sees that a moral education must keep even pace with mental educa tion. We must make room for a somewhat long extract, because such a learned, able, eminent ecclesiastic has a right to speak on a subject with which he is so familiar. Bishop Littlejohn says: "It is admitted that intellectual, apart from religioui, training is a dangerous thing; that in our popular methods, under State control, there is not only no effort to com bine them, but rather a pronounced and recognized intention to separate them. Among all thoughtful people thete is no question that civil government and social order, if they are to be beneficent and eil during, must rest upon conscience as well as intelligence; upon a disciplined sense of right and wrong as well as upon a trained faculty of acquirinc and using knowledge, ,and, further, that the morality of the peo ple cannot be vital and healthy unless its roots are planted in the soil of religion." Again he eays, and his remarks are commended to the thoughtful: . "Religion cannot grow unless it be in telligent, and intelligence cannot be a safe guide unless it be religious. The same Qod is the source of both. It is beyond dis pute that the current in our higher, and in our lower education as .well, is drifting away from the Ghurch's historic faith, and if from this, then equally from the ethics founded upon that faith. Our leading edu cational centres are beginning to throw off all restraint or disguise in their admissions on this point. With increasing frankness and assurance they tell us that it is no part of their business to teach, in any form or way, the positive truths of Christianity. They have not progressed far enough in their favorite line to treat Christianity with disrespect. They still imply, rather than to say, that so venerable a pretence should be allowed what room it needs. They have no objection to handling the faiths of the past as anatomists handle dead bodies, but for the faith that is alive they make no provi sion and repudiate all obligation." It affords us singular satisfaction to draw attention to a report of the majority of the House Committee on Appropriations. A step in the right direction has been taken to loosen the thumb tcrews of the humbug Civil Service. It is that the Commission shall not be paid until the present limit as to age is removed. This is right. As the law is now the best and truest man in America, if over 45 years old, cannot hold office in certain departments. It also pro poses to remove the thirty-five-years limitation for classified pdstal ser vice. ' The rule ' is bad and works badly in the South. The other change demanded is to require the Commission to certify the whole list of eligibles to the official asking for a clerk, instead of the four highest on the list as now provided for by the Commission's rules. Whether these changes will be adopted or not it is quite certain that they ought to be adopted. If you cannot wipe oat the humbug the next best thing is to lop off its moet offensive features Of course the three Commissioners will oppose. There are thousands in it. Tho bill before the House relative to defining the office of a Second v ice rresident is a very important one. It proposes a Constitutional Amendment to create such an office He is to be President in case of the death, resignation or removal of the President and Vice President. He is to be elected when the others are, He is to be President of the Senate or act as such if the Vice President shall be removed, or shall exercise the office of President, and in the absence of the Vice President he shall but "without a r provisions of vote.- lb ere are oth the bill. i '9 - ,v it; Mr. Batton,f editor of-'the' Lynch burg-' Virginian, wai nominated for thepostmastership of that town. The Senate refused to I confirm his ap pointment. The ground of the re-j fusal was that be had criticised cer tain"bf . the Senaiprs in his paper. This is a new 'way; to put an embar go on criticism of politicians an ef fort to stifle freedom of publishing. It seems that if a newspaper has dared,, to say ; a word in disparage ment of their Mightinessess of the Senate that he shall not hold office. Upon what meat have the Senators in 1886 fed that they have grown above criticism ? So far from criti sing Senators unfairly or too much, the press has been too prone to con done their sins of omission and com mission, and to blow their horns up on all occasions. Senators are ex tremely human and they need watch ing. If the press would overhaul their records more than they do Sen ators would be more circumspect in life and less addicted to wasting tbe people's money. CVli BENT COMMENT. The defeat of the Blair bill is strong testimony to the patriotism and the integrity of the Representa tives of the South. It shows the ar gument to the pocket is not strong enough to warp their judgment, or to alter their course. The greater part of this fund would go to the South; to a people impoverished by the war; to a section which receives little or nothing from the pension bounties, but which, in addition to its heavy war taxes, cares for its own soldiers and their widows and orphans, or teaches them to care for themselves. It is convincing testi mony to disinterested patriotism. Representatives who have had the courage and manliness to antagonize this measure should as fearlessly and faithfully oppose the many pension steals by which the Republicans are trying to buy the "soldier vote." LouisviUe Courier-Journal, Dem. A letter from Mr. T. V. Pow- derly, addressed to this paper, asks what we have to say of "the boycott as practiced by the employers of labor?" We answer unhesitatingly that the boycott is a bad thing by whomever used. Mr. Powderly has himself condemned its use by the Knights of Labor, and it was the Knights who introduced it in this country. Tho boycott may indeed cause cruel suffering to its object; but, like other bad things, usually reacts and injures tho boycotters as well as the victim. Baltimore Amer ican. THE PRESBYTERIAN SEMJ3LT. AS Augusta, Ga., May 20. In op posing the election of the Rev. J, H. Bryson to be Moderator of the Pres byterian General Assembly, Dr. Flinn, of Alabama, declared that Dr. Bryson bad not kept his own house in order and could not be expected to keep the Assembly in good form. The vote on the second ballot was: Bryson, 55; Hunter, of Mississippi, 49; The following resolution was of fered by Dr. Armstrong, of Virgin ia: Whereas, It is known through tbe published proceedings of tho Pres byteries that several overtures will be presented to this General Assem bly asking for a deliverance on the subject of the genetic evolution of man; therefore Resolved, That a special commit tee be appointed by the Moderator, to whom all these overtures shall be referred with instructions to report at as early a day as possible. The resolution was adopted unani mously. This important question comes up on appeal from East Han over Presbytery, of Virginia, and will take a wide range. Thia Pres bytery opposes the theory of Dr. Wood row, and Dr. Armstrong, assist ed by Wirt Henry, of 'Richmond, grandson of Patrick Henry, are here especially to make this light. Dr. Armstrong refused, the nomination for Moderator on this ground. The retiring Moderator, Dr. H. R. Ray mond, of Alabama, to-day preached the opening sermon, his subject be ing "Orthodoxy." He condemned the policy of preachers who try to court popularity by sensational me thods and scientific' diversions. He pointed to the old paths as the safest. These people, he said, stigmatized orthodoxy with the aspect of cynics, the cruelty of bigots, and the pride of philosophy. SOUTHERN ITEMS. If the Democrats of.

The claim of the Mason Company is for an injunction and damages on the ground that Bugg's ap plication for a patent on the machine re ferred to was rejected, after a full hearing, by the Patent Office; that a patent was granted to the Mason Company; and that Bugg, having been defeated in the Patent Office, has infringed several of the Mason Company's patents in tbe construction of his machines.
