A Northern Sjrad!cate Boy a Tract of Land In the Town To Be Improved and Open, ed Up for Building Lou. Tarhoro, N. C, July 24. (Special..) A syndicate composed of business men from Baltimore and elsewhere, through Mr. N. M. Lawrence, of this place, have -just concluded the pur chase of a tract of land belonging to Mr. W. S. Battle, containing 200 acres, lying on the west side of the town and partially within the incorporate limits. They intend to run a wide street through the property, laying it off in lota and offer them for sale for resi dences, etc. This property is very desirable, being higher than the town proper and beautifully situated for building nice and handsome residences. The residence on this property is one of the handsomest in the State and is located in a beautiful grove of oaks. It is substantially, built of brick and cost, when finished with the necessary out houses, about $25,000. Our town has for many years been visited by a large number of people from the North, especially from Mass achusetts, who are predisposed to con sumption, and the effects of our mild winter climate has had wonderful and invigorating effect upon them. To such persons there is a fine opportunity to purchase desirable locations and build comfortable winter houses. Tnere is, in fact, a fine opening for some one to open a winter resort for Northern peoplewho love-sport or are seeking a genial climate. We are satisfied this deal will greatly inure to the benefit of the town in many respects and we con gratulate these gentlemen on their fortunate purchase.

His opin ions on tho subject were fixed. Ths Jesuits had succeeded better than any other poplo living in the education of Indians.

These good people, he said, had applied to tho philanthropic Misses Drexell, of Philadelphia, and had obtained 20,000 which they had expended In a school building, recently completed. He was convinced that these Catholics were far more efficient among the Indians than any Protectant denomination could be. No other dc domination could take their place bo cause the Indians, like all other xop!e emerging from barbarism, bad received religious impressions that were paro mont.
