The treatise .was an extreme ly Jnteresting account of the lost col ony, which is supposed to haje'. be come amalgamated with tne; Indians, and to he : exemplified at present; in ; the Croatans of the Carolina swamps. , After - the rendition of the pro gramme the members of the society devoted themselves -to the enjoyment of the social feature.

No Englishman of his age possessed so various or so extraordi nary qualities. Courage which was : never aauntea, uuiu seii. iwjsscbbiuu, ' and fertility of invention, insured him glory in his 1 profession of arms; and his service in the conquest of Cadiz, or the . capture of - Fay al, were aionej sufficent to establish his fame as a gallant and successful commander. In every danger, his life was distinguish ed by the valor, and his death was en nobled by true magnanimity. Raleigh had suffered from palsy, before his last expedition. He returned broken hearted by the defeat of his hopes,, by the decay of his health, and by the death of his eldest son. vvnai sun be . said of King James, . who would open to an aged paralytic no other hope '. of i liberty but through success in the 'discovery of mines in Guina? What shall, be said of the monarch who could, at that time under a sentence which was orginally unjust, and which had slumbered for fifteen years, order the execution of the decrepit man, whose genius and valor shone brilliant ly through the ravages of physical de cavy and whose English- heart, within a palsied frame, still beat with an un dying love for his country?" -Sir Walter Raleigh. Soldier, knight, and statesman Sir Walter Raleigh, was sa citizen of lofty . and " undeviating patriotism and as -a scholar his History of the World, .written in prison, remained a work of profound erudition. Prince Henry the eldest son of James I, whose pre mature , death made his brother, Charles, heir apparent, to- the throne-, possibly, changed the whole history of Great ' Britain, ior he was frank, loyal, genial, and beloved by the people, and not imbued with' the spirit of the"divT ine right ' of . kings" so : early evinced by his brother, and which made the English , people regicides in their own despite for. they had far more war rant for the execution of Charles I, than 4he French had for the death of Louis Sixteenth nearly one", hundred and fifty - years afterwards. . Prince Charles was wont to tsay .thaf only, his father would cage so sweet a bird: as Raleigh. . - , ' - , ' In spite of W ill success of Lane's Colony, Raleigh ). determined . to : plant an agricultural sect in Virginia; "who should at once make ' their bomes In . the new wo'rH; and - that life and Property might be secured, he-granted a charter of incorporation, and with their lives to Croatan. and through-, the friendship of Manteo, .be come familiar with the Indians ? The conjecture has been hazarded that .the deserted colony, neglected by their countrymen, were ' hospitably adopted into the tribe of Hatteras Indians, and became amalgamated with the sons of the forest This was the tradition' of the natives at a later day, and it" was thought to be confirmed by the physi cal character of the tribe, in which the English and the Indians races seem to have been blended. Raleigh though ' he had given up the hope of colonizing "Virginia, he yet sent at his own charge, it is said, and at five' sev eral times, 'to search for his leigemen. P-ut it was all in vain; imagination re ceived no help in its attempts :to trace the fate bf the colony of Roan oke." v - .M::-- The White Doe. . In one of the "North Carolina Day Excercises," prepared and published by f the: scholarly Prof. . Connor, is : the sketch, "Virginia Dare," in. which oc- fcur- the following paragraphs: VBy the Indians Eleanor . Dare, the first mother ; of the white race known . to them,' is said to have been called, in their figurative and descriptive way The White Doe and her baby, the little Virginia the first white infant they had ever seen, "The White Fawn, and there is a pretty, tradition -' that 'after her death her spirit assumed that form-r-an elfin fawn which,- clad in Immortal beauty;v would at times be seen haunting like a tender mem ory the place' of her birth, or gazing wistfully over the sea, as with-pathetic yearnings for the far away land. " ' , The colonists had evidently gone to Croatan, , as we now have the word, the home of -Manteo, the" friendly chief; but , none of them was even seen of white men again. They ' died and made no" sign; . though it is prob able that their descendants may still be found among the Croatan; or, more probably Hatteras Indians ,bf . Robe son county." y-'' J"s --:".'

The chief scource of the South's wealth, and upon which we must de pend in the future, is that royal gift ol God which makes the cloth of the world, warp, weft and web, fang Cot ton.. As ex-Premier . Balfour said, at a meeting pf the Brittish Cotton Grow ing Association at Manchester last year, "There s not a civilized man in the world who "does not want cotton goods. I don't care wio he is, . or where he; is, how he slives t or what he does, -V every man' wants cotton goods in sQmehape or form" It is the new born baby's first gift and the last debt paid to the honpred dead. 1 Nineteen centuries, ago Ovid de scribed the art of weaVihg in his day, which, in modern times, Is simply .'the mechanical execution cf the same pro cess:., .V' ...,. "The web enwraps the beam, the. reed divides, While through the widening space" j the shuttle glides, Which their swift hands receive, then poised with, lead, - The swinging weight strikes close the Inserted thread." To-day Great Britain, the leading cot ton manufacturer of the world, derives 75 per cent, of Its supply of raw cot ton from our Southern States. 1 A failure of the cotton crj in the South would be a stupendous disaster to the ly to that large population of England dependant upon the Cotton Mills for its 5 daily' bread. The f possibility ;i of such an event,: and the wide fluctua tions in prices- of-recent years, under the manipulation of rapacious specula tors and gamblers, have brought to the serious consideration of British State men and .Economists, the . question , of future supplies 'f roml more : reliable sources. Naturally their thoughts have been centered upon the wide and al most limitless zone of - British terri tory adapted to the growth' of desirable Varieties of cottonj and the-vast;region of West 'Africa has been successfully exploited as a cotton producing country of great promise. j--..-: . --."v. . 'As yet there are practically - no means of transportation, and the Brit: ish Cabinet has been recently urged by a large and important deputation of the British Cotton Grower's Associa tion, to, provide means for the ex tension of railways and roads In West Africa, and the Improvement . of. the water ways of that country for - the greater development of cotton plant ing..: ;. -- ; " Alaother important movement, more interesting to us In the South, is the recent visit to the United Spates of the Lancashire Cotton Spinners' Commis sion, which, upon Its return to Liver pool recently reported that the possi bilities cf cotton growing in. the South ern States are practically unlimited, millions of acres being available, and the means of transit thoroughly sat isfactory. It is most probable therefore that the throne of King Cotton will long continue in " the South, and that7 under the more in telligent control '--of the farmers par liament, restricting the acreage to the increasing needs of the world, and regulating the movement for the. pow er, of a reasonable profit, his benign reign will add more than a billion dol lars yearly to our beloved South, which has risen from the ashes of humilia tlon and sorrow to a place-of exalta tion among the nations of the Earth. railway.;; : Direct Line to Principal Cities North.

Belief Regarding Croatans. ' Prof. S. B. Weeks, in his summing? up of his very, carefully considered article, "The Croatans; Whence and Where,"' declares : it most probable he does not say certain, tha the Robeson county Croatans are the Hatteras Indians, amalgamated with the Lost Virginia Colony ; Prof. Reed Hamilton McMillan takes the same view; Col. Fred A. Olds, of Raleigh, the valued historical writer, uses his pen to -the same effect. Now let us weigh briefly and im partially the reasons for the 'faith that is in these -writers. The very last trace of this Roanoke English colony finds them hastening for suc cor to Croatan, the tiny Virginia Dare in her distressed mother's arms, gaz ing wistfully over the sea as with pathetic yearning for the- faraway mother land.'' Beyond that they are swallowed up in mystery. As a tribe Croatan disappears "Natives of a Later Day" (Bancroft) tells of the amalgamation of whites with the sons of the ; forest. The Indians about their camp fires tell to their children stories of the White Doe and the White Fawn. John Smith and William Strachy both know of "scattered par ties of these colonists," and the latter tells of a young maid who fled , up the, river Chanoke." -n . '- But generation after generation elapses, and there is no amalgamated white and Indian race on record in history, or the theme of story in tra dition. After centuries, a strange people are found in the - swamps of Robeson county, who call themselves Croatans. v Wondrous, ' strange and significant! Whence came the name? Intelligent as they were," they vwere ho scholars ; they ; had i no -: libraries ; they knew not history ; they could not find material for the assumption 6f a name ; they would never imagine so strange a title. ; - ' . '" -v :. .'-.v --. v.:'; -. . : v . Croatans Not Negroes. -In the latter partj of the sixteenth century' an English, col6hy disappears Croatan disappears; in the nine teenth century Croatan- re-appears in the J swamps of Robjeson county a strange people, plainly a blending of Anglo-Saxon ; and Indian blood. Through all the years; of their setni civilized, nomad existence not one of them, even, the most ignorant, fails to repel the charge that there is negro blood in his veins, t They bear English names names common in England in the sixteenth i century, some of them borne by sailors in the", naval war of the Spanish, ; Armada: $ Applewhite, Oxendine, . Caldwell,5 ?Lowery etc. Their habits are those of the Indian; in traveling they march in single file ; they are gluttonous In times of plenty absteminous in the days of dearth; they are taciturn , and the women' do the field and other labor. vLast of all the most overwhelming fact in proof of the Indian-English blending of the race without the stain of negro blood during all the fear ful depredations of Henry Berry Low ery , and his band, not one of them committed,, that unutterable , crime which, above all others, show savagery of the African n The QuUaWBand. - - ' ' , -.. .'

Ine early afternoon, just as we hadjjrossed the Cumber land county line, five or six men came meeting us, in the middle of the road, walking in Indian file. "Those are strange looking people," I said," "Yes they, are," said Bundyv They grudgingly gave us 'the road, turning off into the foot-path. They were a tawny, blue-eyed set of men, and per- Ijaffs only one of them raised his nead and nodded at us. I turned back in the buggy and looked at them, and turning to the front again saw that my. companion's face was deadly white "My God!" he said, "That's Henry Lowery and his band; there has been blood and murder about here." And so there had. That morning the Low ery band had killed the 'two McLeods, their wives, and desperately wdunded their son John, murdering them on their hearthstone in the belief that they were possessed of a good deal of money. The news had reached Fayetteville before we got to town. "In vain, in vain, their heart-sick search, j . No tidings reached them more; No record save that "silent word Upon that silent shore.
