tThere has been much written of
late about the negro as a tenant and

the various writers, and as a sample 1
of his industry and thrift the follow
ing speaks for itself: Within the

them driving into town in all kinds
of vehicles loaded with fodder, and I
made it my business to investigate,
when about the following dialogue

of the very best of our exchanges, and consider it
the peer of any journal published in the South.

Why is It that all the papers With the name of
Star are such bright little Journals ? The Wuming
ton (N. C.) Stab, the Washington Star, the Fred
ericksburg Star, New York Star, for example.
There must be something in a name after all.

EfThe Wilmington Stab haa entered uponlts 12th
volume, and we are pleased to notice still contin
ues on the road to success. We esteem the Stab
very highly, regarding it as one of the very best
newspapers that comes to this office.; Its news
columns are always a little fuller than those of
any other of our exchanges, and its editorial de-.
aartment is conducted with much ability. 2kr

Humble In its beginnings, as was Inseparable
from an enterprise begun amid the wreok of tori
tune that attended the collapse of the Southern
Confederacy, the Stab has steadily "waxed" un
til It now beams resplendent in the full glow of a
nnnafsLntlv brtehtenln? prosperity. As a newira-
ver it has few equals, and no superior, for apprs-'
priate selection and ludlolous arrangement, ana
We are proua to ran lb amvug uiu uiuuuct.iai
ble exchangee. EUlsboro Recorder.
The Wumington Mobhihs Stab has entered up
on the thirteenth year of its existence, and we
take this opportunity to congratulate it upon its
prosperity and aeserveapopuianiy. -ine remark
able success of the Stab is due to its strict atten
tion to business. The boast of the Stab (rightful
ly too) is that it always has the news, and this is
the first thing in Journalism. Otherwise the pa-,
per is all that the term of "good newspaper" im
plies, and ts corps of editors and reporters are
thoroughly educated newspaper men. May the
healthy, moral Influence of the Stab never be re
tarded, and may its genial enterprising proprie
tor enjoy many more happy years of usefulness.
