Everyone will regret to hear that the Wilmington Eifo" Insurance Company has taken steps to wind up ami discontinue business, but it is a matter of congratulation that the affairs of the Company have been so conducted that it can wind up without loss or embarrassment to a single individual, either stock holder or insurer. The Company is perfivtly solvent, ami the Direc tors have decided to withdraw from the field of insurance competition while they can do so without lossor damage to any one. All ioliries in the Wilmington Life have Ut-n transferred to and re-insured in the Virginia and North Carolina Insurance Company of Petersburg', a safe and growing Company. Mr. James D. Brooks, late General Agent of the Wilmington Life is now with Dr. C. D. Rio. General Agent of the Piedmont and Arling ton Insurance Coaipany of Rich mond, with headquarters at Raleigh. A Moe in the "Wrong tion. Iiree- freights of the The incrcasd rates nf recent lv made on certain lines of Railway contmlU-d by that ! association of capital ami combina- ! tion of Railroad talent known as the Southern Railway Security' Company, was a movement quite i unexpected to the friends of Rail road extension and development in ; North Carolina, and, unexplained, must condemn the management of the Railway lines referred to. There Is some satisfaction ami a sense of protection, however, in the knowledge that the rates of freights and the passenger tariffs cannot be raised, on the Central Road, above the tables in force at the time the North Carolina Road passed, by lease, under the control of the Rich mond and Danville Railroad. When one reflects on the unneces sary and unwise opMitioi that has been made to the Richmond ami Danville Company in connection with its lease, and the expensive and frivolous litigation and dam aging delays it has been subjected to, it is not remarkable that that Corniany khould have decided to restore the old rates of the Smith management, which it had re duced some hundred and twenty thousand dollars on an estimated business equal to the last year of President Smith's administration, And doubtless the complaint of " up avenues of new industry, and so innocence of Democratic Congress the Statesville and Charlotte people-firmly establish his principle of j men and Senators, and so vindicate on an Increase 01 ireignis, to and from New York, is answered by the expensive shifting of all freights .it the two terminal points of broad gauge Charlotte and Greensboro a state of things rendered necessary ty the action of that friend and patron of North Carolina, Mr. Mon ure Robinson 'of Philadelphia, who, owning -and controlling tl Raleigh and Gaston Railroad, af fects to own and control the Stat f North Carolina; who assumes in fact to be the Slate, as records in the ourts of Wake county abundantly show.

How the North Oppresses the South. In another column the Era has spoken in terms complimentary of the Wilson Collegiate Institute. It will not be taken amiss if this pa per shall here indulge -what may seem to be a plain criticism. The very elegant catalogue with which Professor Hassell has favored the Era bears the imprint of Jas. B. Rodgers Co., Printers, 52 and 64 iVith one exception the Kditor ot the Era is personally acquainted with every member of the Board of Trustees of Wilson Collegiate In stitute, and with all the officers of the Board. Individually or collectively, these gentlemen have no love for Yan kees. They are of a class who hate the "Quaker City" and think it a misnomer to call it "the city of brotherly love." The politicians among them insist that the North is oppressing the South, and the political writers in the Board teach that it is treason, to the South, to draw any political inspiration from the prevailing sentiment of Phila delphia. In a political view of the subject, it may then be asked: Gentlemen where is your consistency in thus building up and sustaining foreigp, Yankee, and mayhap i2acui',insti tutiona ? If the disposition and the practice of the North and the North ern people is to oppress and grind down the South, why do you aid this oppression why take your grist to be ground at the mills of these oppressors? If there really exists the state of things you allege, your free presses the scourge of tyrants are fighting to destroy and break down the power that op presses you. , Why did you not spend yourwnoney to print a cata logue with Engelhard of the Jour nal, Bernard of the Star, or Stone of the Xews, either of whom could have executed it as well and as cheaply as Rodgers ot Philadelphia ? The Era has no interest, directly or indirectly, in any job or book printing establishment anywhere, and hence it speaks from no motives of self-interest when it says this practice of getting up home-schools to give foreign printing offices work to do is an abomination in the sight of all men who have the instincts of home or the pride of State, and the material interests, growth, pro- gress and prosierityof North Caro lina at heart ; and it is a practice, the tolly of which, the Era hopes never to see repeated. Cicero W. Harris, Esq., of the Wilmington Star is a Trustee of Wilson Collegiate Institute, yet, for his Board, Rodgers of the city of Philadelphia executes and is paid for a job of printing for a home in stitution that Harris' home jjitjjer is not permitted to touch. Is this the way to build up home institutions f Is this the way to re sist " Northern oppression" and Yankee aggression f Southern Members lay. and Back As a general thhi the Ilepublicau and j Democratic members from the South diil not get along very barmoniouslj' in j Congress, but tliey at last found a plat- i form upon which carpet bagger.s, color ed nVeh nnl Democrats could all stand together. They disagreed upon politi cal questions, but General Butler sig nalizixl tho closing hours of the session with a financial measure which brought nearly all of them iirto one camp and under one banner. We allude to what is familiarly known as the " salary steal." Sinco the adjournment of the Forty-second Congress they have dis played a still more striking unanimity upon another issue. "Of the forty-six Senators and Representatives who have refused to take their Lack pay or have returned it into the Treasury, there is not a single one from a Southern State. Radicals from New Kngland and Dem- I ocrats from the West have given up or f declined to receive their swag, but we find no man on this side of the Potomac who has yielded to the pricks of an un easy conscience enough to give up the spoils which were acquired in such a questionable manner. The lion and the lamb have laid down together and a little clild has deil them after back pay.

Augusta (Oa.) Chronicle. In other words this Democratic organ of Georgia inadvertently con fesses and declares that public thieves and corrupt officials are not the exclusive property of the Re publican party, all the "virtue, in telligence, trealti and tcorth of the country' to tho contrary notwith- standing. No one with a proper apprecia tion of the brevity of life, and the amount of general work assigned to each individual, would, of course, undertake a defence of Major-Gen-eral Benjamin Franklin Butler, but, injustice to that much-known individual, be it said, he was not the author of the salary steal. A distinguished Democrat, by the name of oorhees, enjoys the honor of "working up" the salary steal, planning the Congressional burglary on the National Treasury; Major-General Ben simply engin eered the bill on the floor after Mr. Voorhees had perfected it in Com mittee. With a singular unanimity Dem ocrats and RepublicanSjOf the South, rallied to the "back-pay" standard of tho hero of "Dutch Gap" taken, nfVnrt. Tidier not taken, find see now which party returns any of these salary stealers to Congress, from the South. The Republican party, and its press, has put the seal of political condemnation on these men individually and collectively, and so far as North Carolina is con cerned, not one of them will ever again get his hand in the public ! crib through the aid of Republican J voters. ; The Democratic presses of North : Carolina have been conspicuous for 1 their silence in reference to the five 1 Democratic Congressmen and Sen- ator from this State, but it is un derstood that they have arranged to come out, .simultaneously with articWon the subject that will have the effect to establish the complete the Democratic party. The public awaits this performance with inde-! tor, a great deal less than ten thou scribable interest. sand dollars default is alleged, and The Duty of the Laving and Their Duty to the Dead. When one reflects that many of the North Carolina soldiers slain in the late war were poor and ignor ant men, unable to comprehend an issue, no matter how important the issue involved: and that of this 4 class, toward the last, nearly all were forced into the ranks against their will, dragged into a conflict they neither understood nor cared I M l .1 .1 " " It ' wives, cnimren, tamers, momers, brothers and sisters, to be vainly and cruelly done to death, a con templation of the can cr and end of the Confederate soldi or is unuttera bly sad. The spectacle of their be reaved parents, heart-broken wives, orphaned children and sorrowing friends, has made life at the South sometimes seem like a perpetual funeral procession. The suffering, want and irreparable loss to the class of survivors alluded to above, when known and fully appreciated, is enough to toften the hardest heart. Nor can oue forget or ignore the fact that of . the myraids of North Carolina dead, a large majority of all were of those opposed to the war, and who had, as late as Feb ruary 1SG1, voted down the propo sition to even call a Convention to consider of Secession. They were men who, when the issue came, simply accepted the sit uation. How few of their surviving friends and comrackis had the pa triotism, the manhood and the courage to accept the situation recognize the inevitable in the Reconstruction crisis of 18G5 and 18G7? These remarks are intended as simply appropriate to a notice of the Statesville .Survivors' meeting last Friday, and the resolutions then and there adopted, which by request are inserted in this Era. This writer never has and never will yield to any man in his admi ration for the valor and achieve1 ments of the rank and file of the Confederate Army, and he would have the Southern people neither forget nor dishonor their dead. He likes the- tone and spirit of the Statesville resolutions, altogether, and has always held that the hero ism and valor displayed on both sides to the conflict should pass to ; the credit of the American name. But how stand the gentlemen who, as o'fficers of the meeting of , the fourth, propose to perpetuate J the memory and gallant deeds of; brave men? Has .their conduct been to accept a situation, no-more trying, and certainly not more vio lent to preconceived notions, than the it nation of tear which; the Union people of North Carolina tic- i eepieo in ioui -viu mrji uwi the men who strangled a btate anil , attempted to throttle a nation ; and are not their hands today virtually j raised against the Government un- j der which they live and whose; honors and protection they enjoy? They may say it is not now a per- j feet or a protecting Government. ; If this be in any particular true, ! why have they not given their aid ; and influence toward making it : what the Government was when they voluntarily abandoned it to . bad men and fanatics in 1SG1 ? It is meet and proper to cherish and perpetuate the memories of the fallen soldiers of the South, and an impartial history of that period should be written, but they unwit tingly outrage the memory of their dead, and make a false impression on history, who, failing to appreci ate the altered conditions and duties of the times, fail in the most essen tial work the fallen brave, had they been spared, would have accom plished. The Truth of History. The Era copies some matter from the Portland Argus, away down in Maine, in reference to the story that President Davis, of the Con federate States, was captured in woman's disguise. The story never obtained credit among fair-minded, intelligent peo ple who knew anything of the char acter or history of Mr. Davis. A soldier who had bled on the field for the United States Government before many of his captors and ene mies were born, and whose personal bravery and conspicuous gallantry gave victory to the American arms in Mexico; and who as Secretary of War had stood for four years at the head of the United States Army, was not likely to be the sort of man to skulk through the bushes in the disguise of a woman to avoid those who bore the arms and colors he had organized and led; especially when he represented in his person the dignity and sovereignty of a majority of the people of nearly one third of the States of the Union. The Era is no champion, advo cate or special friend of Jeff. Davis, but it is a Southern paper, and a representative, friend and advocate of the Southern people ; and South ern men of mark are not so plenty at this day as to justify or excuse the absurd story and senseless de traction that would thus reflect on Southern character and American manhood. In the light of present events, Mr. Davis and his associates were all wrong, and have much to answer for at the bar of public sentiment ; but the United States Government his life in his participation in So-1 cession, and the public sentiment of this day can only be degraded by the acceptance of a falsehood dis creditable alike to American char acter and Southern manhood. It is a matter so entirely above and disconnected with politics, or par ties, that it becomes the individual affair of every Southerner, and, in the eyes of the world, effects, more or less, every American citizen, to say nothing of the vindication of the truth of history. The Revenue Default. The credulity of the public has been imposed upon regarding the amount of Revenue default in this tho 4th Collection District. Of a total collection of some two millions of dollars under the ad ministration of the present Collec- more than that amount is not possi ble. In this the Collector is amply secured by subordinate's Bonds, and the Government is. secured by the official Bond of the Collector; so that the loss of a cent of the public money i's not possible. Of the indictments fonnd at the late term of the Circuit Court, all but one of the parties, and their friends, declare their' ability to es tablish their perfect innocence, in asmuch as theh?legeclguiltis,-at itTTTUOH" ii inn M dictment of the Collector is founded on the slim technicality of certify ing to accounts, found to be, in some particulars, incorrect and irregular, but which were certified to by the Collector and Assessor upon the cer tificates and oaths of subordinates. The friends of the. Collector insist upon his perfect innocence and are confident of his triumphant vindi cation. E. Tt. Stanley, Esq. The business and travelling pub lic is gratified at the re-election of Mr. Edward R. Stanley -to the Presidency of the Atlantic and North Carolina Railroad ; and not the least of this gratification is found in the fact that Mr. Stanley has so far recovered from his pain ful illness of last year as to be able to discharge the active duties of a Railroad President. The people of New-Berne and Craven county were peculiarly for tunate in finding such a man as E. It. Stanley in the Reconstruction crisis. His business-tact and strict integrity har, saved his section needless expanse, embarrassment and annoyance. Mr. Stanley has managed the affairs of the Atlantic Road ad mirably, and with a limited income has kept his Road in good condi tion, and preserved its credit by paying the interest on its bonds as it came due, pledging his private fortune, when, necessary to the suc cessful operation of the Road. Had the consolidation views of Mr. Stanley been adopted, the Western North Carolina Railroad would be now completed, and with an all-rail line from the great North west and the Mississippi Valley, New-Berne and Beaufort Harbor would now be lodking up in the world of commerce. In the course of events the long wished for Western connection of New-Berne and Beaufort will be eonsummated.and their commercial hope is still alive.

Pursuant to notice a number of ex-confederates met in the Court House, in Statesville on the 4th day of July, for the purpose of taking some steps to perpetuate the history of the soldiers of Iredell during the late war. Upon motion T. S. Tucker was called to the chair and Chas. It. Jones -was requested to act as Sec retary! Maj. W. M. Robbins submitted the following resolutions which were unanimously adopted: Whereas, The people of North Carolina took a most prominent Sart in the recent war between the tates,- and it is important that a K roper record of the heroic deeds of er sons in that great conflict should be prepared and transmitted to posterity, and Whereas, We believe that the time is rapidly coming when the extraordinary prowess, fortitude and achievements of the Confeder ate soldier will be treasured up by the people of the whole country as a brilliant part of the common her itage of American glory; therefore Ilesolved, That we, the friends and survivors of the Confederate soldiers of Iredell county, will take immediate steps to collect informa tion, and place on record all the facts, concerning the men furnished by this county to the Confederate Army, their names, the organiza tions'to which they belonged, their achievements and their fate as sol diers, together with every incident worth preserving, illustrative of their career in the service. liesolced, That we engage in this task with no sectional aim and in no narrow spirit, but with the view of doing justice, especially to the memory of the honored dead, and in the interests of truthful and im- artial history, and we invite all iorth Carolinians who love the State and are proud of her fair name and her glorious past to co-operate with us in our work. Ilesolved, That a Central Commit tee of five be i appointed to receive such records,' contributions and statements of facts and incidents, as may be furnished them, and have the same embodied in suitable form for publication. Ilesolved, That one person be ap pointed in each School District, whose duty it shall be to gather up and transmit to the Central Com mittee all possible information in reference to the men of their respec tive districts who srved in the army. Ilesolved, That it is especially re quested that every surviving sol dier, or other person friendly to our purposes, furnish to the Central Committee such information as he may possess, or can collect, , touch ing the subject of our inquiry, and aid us in every possible manner in securing a full history of the sol diers of Iredell county. Ilesolved, That we respect fully re quest the assistance of the people of our sister counties in collecting in formation in regard to the soldiers of Iredell and promise them, if de sired, our aid in like manner, in making up the record of their own Ilesolved, That a committee of three be appointed to prepare and publish a short address setting forth our objects, specifying the proper points of inquiry, and urging gen eral co-operation. Ilesolved, That the chairman of this meeting be requested to ap point a committee of five, whose duty it shall be to draft a constitu tion and by-laws for a permanent ex-Confederate Soldiers organiza tion to meet annually on a day chosen and to report the same to an adjourned meeting of this body. Ilesolved, That we request the Statesville papers to publish the proceedings of this meetingand that the Raleigh papers be requested to copy. The setting of a great hope is like the setting of the sun. The bright ness of our life is gone, shadows of the evening fall around us, and the world seem3 but a dim reflection itself, a broader shadow. We look forward into the coming lonely night; tho soul withdraws itself. Then stars arise, and the night is holy. THE MECHANICS. To 3reebaiiieKand AVorkiiigmen 'lo the Editor of The Era: In your issue of the 3rd we see that you have kindly tendered two columnsofyourpaper to the "Working-men and Mechanics," through which to discuss any question look ing to their interests and advance ment in the community. That is a step in the right direction, and it is to ba hoped that skilled workmen are filled with matter of a character to instruct and elevate those who are not versed in the mysteries of what makes a Master Mechanic. About two years ago, as you re member, three printers in this city, seeing the necessity for establishing a Working-man's Journal, went to work and engaged type, presses &c, sufficient for such an enterprise. They called meeting after meeting and stirred up a few mechanics to the importance of such an under taking, but a few, thinking that it was a political move, - finally suc ceeded in throwing a damper on the project and the idea was aban doned. In the recent ten hour movement all our mechanics and working-men, saw the necessity for such a paper, and now we under stand there is a movement on foot to try once more, to establish such a journal. There is not a paper in the State devoted to mechanics and mechanical interests, and it is to be hoped that the gentlemen who have the matter in hand will persevere and push the present ; plan to suc cess. The want-ispelt not only in Raleigh, but .throughout the entire State. We do notdesire a political paper, but one that will, when the rights of iiie working-men are as sailed, take up the gauntlet and repel such attacks. Such, a paper will not simply deserve success but will receive a hearty support from the working masses, both white and colored. The time is not to come, but has already arrived, for the mechanics to organize their different trades into Societies and Unions, (not for political purposes) but for their bet ter protection against inferior and unskilled labor. The skilled laborer is 'master of the situation,' but it is not difficult, in the present condi tion of the working-men, for the employer to find unprincipled work men who will undermine and work for barely a living whereas, if the different trades were organized and required thorough competency as a qualification for membership, in a very short time there would be a better feeling existing between the employer and employee, and fewer men, who own only a jack-plane and saw roaming through the country underworking.?s-e7ass mechanics. No proprietor is compelled, either through the demands of an organiz ed body or a feeling of commissera tion to employ an inferior workman, for an inferior .workman deserves no pity for his lack of ambition and consequent lack of skill ; and infe rior workmen generally find em ployment with proprietors' of infe rior judgement. . We therefore. say to our friends organize. There is not a single class of workmen in' the Northern and New England States thfct is not organized. What is the result ? We see them refined, educated and skilled in their vari ous pursuits, and commanding the respect of the communities in which they live. So let the mechanics of North Carolina aspire to the same high standard of excellence. There is not one-half of the carpenters of this city who can make out a bill of lumber required for building a first class dwelling; half of the machin ists who can tell the amount of iron necessary to construct a locomotive, and there is the same ignorance felt in the other different branches of trade in this State. Therefore let them educate! themselves, not only in a common English education, but with a mechanical education ; lot them subscribe to papers and magazines looking to the advance ment of their respective trades. If such journals are not be' found in the Southern States, send North for them. Be determined to have them and they will be found; and after getting them do not take them home to be thrown aside to attend a political meeting, or lounge around bar-rooms and street corners, but when your day's work is over, take your paper or magazine and read it, find out all to your trade. money saved. More anon. you can in reference It will be time and C. From the Portland (Me.) Argus. Jeff. Davis' Alleged Disguise. I am no admirer of Jeff. Davis. I am a Yankee, born between Sacca rappe and Gorham Corner, am full ofankee prejudices; but I think it wicked to lie even about him, or for that matter, about the devil. I was with the party that captur ed Jeff Davis; saw the whole trans action from its beginning. I now say I hope you.' will publish it that Jeff Davis did not have on, at the time he was taken, any garnlent such as i3 worn by women. Die did not have ovc-r his shoulders a water-proof article of clothing something like a "Havelock." He was not in the least concealed. He wore a hat, and did not carry a pail of water on his head, nor carry a bucket, or kettle in any way. To the best of my recollection, ho carried nothing whatever in his hands. His wife did not tell any person , that her husband might hurt somebody if he got exasperat ed. She behaved like a lady and festly - he was chagrined at being taken into custody. Our soldiers behaved like gentlemen as they were, and the foolish stories that went the newspaper rounds of the day, telling how wolflshly he de ported himself, were all false. I know what I am writing about. I saw Jefferson Davis many time3 while he was staying in Portland, several years ago; and I think I was the first one who recognized him at the time of his arrest. When it was known that he was certainly taken, some newspaper correspondent I knew his name at the time fabricated the story about the disguise in an old woman's dress. I heard the whole matter talked over as a good joke, and the officers, who knew better, never took the trouble to deny it. Per haps they thought the Confederate President deserved all the contempt that could be put upon him. I think so too, only I would never j perpetrate a falsehood that by any ! means would become history. And, further, I would never slander a j woman who has shown so much , devotion as Mrs. Davis has to her 1 husband, no matter how wicked he is or may have been. I defy any person to find a single officer or soldier who was present at the capture of Mr. - Davis who will say, upon his honor, that he was disguised in woman's clothes, or that his wife acted in any way unladylike or undignified on that occasion. I go for trying him for his crimes, and, if he is guilty, pun ishing him. But I would not lie about him when the truth will cer tainly be bad enough. J AS. Ellburnville, Pa. II. Parker. State News.
