friend continued to inform me. the colored
people themselves withdrew from us at the
close of the war. I They dismissed the
white preachers, withdrew from the white
churches, and formed churches of their
owl, and they did it of their own volition,
and it is all right. As slaves they were
members in all our churches. 'In the
church where I was raised, they had one
eide of it to themselves, and white people
were not allowed to crowd them or drive
thcniout, when the church was over-full.
We want them to prosper, of course we
do. and there are the kindest feeling, jand
we help them all we can.' "
It is really remarkable how anx
ious the Northern preachers of all
the churches are "to run" the South
em religious denominations. They
do not give the negroes any equal
chance in the North even in religious
i outers, as we I have shown often,
rind as to the trades the colored man
is in disfavor and heavily handi
capped from the start. Ask any
fairly intelligent colored mechanic In
the South to day who has spent some
portion of his time in the North, and
he will tell you that colored, me
chanics have a poor showing injthe
North. They are exclusive in their
Church operations and relations as
any people in the world, but they are
nxious to have all barriers broken

negroes mingled in the same organi
zations. The Chicago editor I re

LKaVIKG NORTH CAROLINA
A gitted young friend, Kev.j M.
A. Moore, in a communication initbe
Christian Advodate,

writes thus:
"You talk about inducing immigration
to North Carolina. I want you newspaper
men to do something to stop emigration
r.way from North Carolina.. These young
men that are h-aving us every year, everv

want to develop our resource What can
be done? It is not worth while to abuse

not exchange one of them for ten of j the
'immigrants' that are brought. Loyuu
North Carolina as I do, bound to her hy a
local attachment that I sometimes con
template as foolish and absurd, this is a
very painful thought to me." I
uecentiy we have seen several
such complaints in some of our State
exchanges. The removal of young
and promising men to other States is
always to be regretted. An ordinary
wnite laborer is worth in dollars
good deal to a State. An educated.

Some told us that they would like to
return although they had been away
for twenty-five years. Tennessee,
Mississippi, Alabama, Arkansas,
Texas and other portions of the
South are filled with people who em-'
igrated before the war. We believe
it is a mistake to suppose as many
people leave now as formerly. We
have no idea that the percentage is
half as much as it was. But,
Second. If North Carolina can be
said to be a good State from which
to move, the same may be said of
Virginia and New York and all New
England. Those who have travelled
much in the South know that wher
ever you go you will find scores of
Virginians and North Carolinians.
They are all oyer the South, and are
scattered through the North, even as
far as New England. In almost eve

many from our own State. Prior to the

It was incorporated Oct 1st, 1886.
The company purchased the old Cape

and manufacturing all kinds of wood
work, such as sash, doors, blinds,
mouldings, turned work of all de
scriptions, flooring, ceiling,, wains
coting, siding weather-boarding, &c,
in connection with their manufact
ured material.
-The company, in a short time, met
with such success in their undertaking
that it was found necessary to increase
their plant, and they have now in
operation thirty-seven j of the latest
improved wood working machines,
and are still increasing their facilities
as their thriving business demands.
They constantly keep in stock, on
their large and conveniently arranged
yard, dimension sfuff, laths, shingles,
&c, and can furnish all material nec
essary In their ' line for erecting
bouses complete at short notice, j
The works manipulated from five
to fifteen car-loads of pine lumber
. each week, obtained from different
points in the two Carolinas. The
company has a railway train running
frOm their yard which connects with
all the railroads entering the city,
and have besides good facilities for
receiving and shipping by Witer.
The Carolina pine is found to be
especially adapted for factory work,
but besides this the factory consumes
large quantities of white pine, which
comes from Michigan, and ash, cy
press, walnut, poplar, ; cherry, red
wood from California, and last but
by no means least, our own "curly

names are Abram Watson, Ephraim

was the first one - arrested. He was
pointed out by young Boatwright in
the crowd around the City Hall steps
Monday evening. Watson denies
that be had anything to do with the
robbery, and said to the white boy:
"What are you telling lies on me for?"
"Isn't your name Abram Tn asked
Swift. The boy said that it was, and
Swift then explained' to the Mayor
that one of the negroes holding him
called out: "Abram, get the rope,"
and this negro brought it and wrap
ped it around him, binding him to
the brick pillar.! Young Boatwright
said.further, that Watson had chang
ed his dress since the assault was
made; that at that time the prisoner
wore knee-breeches. At the sugges
tion of the Mayor an officer examined
Watsons garments and found that he
still had on the knee-breeches, but
wore over them a pair of long pants.
This seemed to complete the iden
tification, for j Watson wilted and
calling the Mayor aside told the lat
ter that he (Watson) was present
when the outrageous assault was com
mitted but was standing outside the
cellar. He gave the names of three
boys who he said were the guilty
parties. They were arrested, but one
of them it was j found had4 nothing
to do with the robbery. There is
pretty good evidence that the others
are guilty. j

Outrageous Assault and Robbery.
An outrageous assault and robbery,
that for coolness and audacity sur
passes anything of the ' kind ever
heard of in this city, was perpetrated
yesterday by three negro boys. The
victim was Master Swift Boatwright,
a boy of about twelve years of age,
son of Mr. Hal Boatwright and a pu
pil at Miss Hart's school, on Third
street, not a hundred yards from po
lice headquarters. Between 1 and 2
o'clock in the afternoon Master Boat
wright went into the cellar or base
ment under the school-house, when
negroes any one of whom
was more than a match for the little
lad seized him. One of them clapped
his hand over the boy's mouth and
another with a long rope, bound him
fast to one of the brick pillars of the
house, while the third took a hand
kerchief from the boy's pocket, went
into an adjoining lot and wet it thor
oughly, and returning, tied it over
the boy's mouth so as to gag him com
pletely. The three negroes then emp
tied his pockets, robbed him, and
treated him with great indignity,
even that of spitting in his face.
The robbers then produced three
sacks, which they filled with coal,
and took their departure. Some
twenty minutes after they had gone,
another of the pupils of the school
came into the basement and found
the lad bound and gagged and re
leased him.
Efforts were at once made for the
detection of the guilty parties. The
negro boys had disguised themselves
with paper bags worn over their
faces, but in resisting their assault
young Boatwright tore one of these
away. He recognized the negro and
later in the afternoon pointed the
boy out to the police in the crowd
that had gathered around the City
Hall steps to hear the address of the
Chief of Police to a colored fire com
pany. The negro was arrested, and
after being taken into the City Hall,
admitted his complicity in the crime.
Other arrests were made on suspi
cion by the police .and altogether
seven half-grown negroes were cap
tured and locked np. They will
probably be brought before the Mayor
this morning, i, !
' For the past two or three months
the coal-house at Miss Hart's school
has been robbed frequently, not only
by night but in broad daylight, and
it is estimated that altogether two or
three cartloads have been stolen by
these negro thieves, i i -

loss of self reliance on the part of scholars.
There was not a first class negro school in
the South that was not supported by ap
propriations or funds derived from chari
table sources. Even the Virginia Normal
Institute, which had been set Up as an ex
ception to tbe rule, had been aided by the
State. Had the Indian become less help
ful because of the education he received at
Hampton ? Howard University was built .
and supported by Government appropria
tions. Bring the President of that institu
tion before the committee and inquire of
him if it had ever wrought anything like
self-help among the negroes.! He would
reply that if any place fitted the negro for
the battle of life for political honors, that
place was Howard University Before the
war there were in the South no schools for
poor white or black- children. The old
master class had schools and ! colleges for
the education of their sons add daughters,
and no other could touch them. The poor
white boys was reared iu the darkest igno
rance; the black boy was a slave. In North
Carolina, after the war, no posts were used
as guide boards on the roads, because of
the number of people who could not read the
inscription on an ordinary mile poBt.
Every dollar appropriated byj the govern
ment to aid education gave an impulse to
the State to do likewise. The Yirgima
Normal Institute would never have been
established by the State if the government
had not aided the Hampton school. That
was an answer to the argument that govern
ment, aid to education would deprive the

the necessity of an immediate
step to provide for the election
of delegates to the National Conven
tion from the different districts. If
it shall seem impracticable to call
conventions; to meet in some of the
districts for this purpose, it is sug
gested that the end may be effected
by authorizing delegates to the State
Convention ! from 6uch districts to
meet in Raleigh on or about the 30th
oi May in district conventions and
elect delegates to represent the dis
