Probably the wealthiest color ed man in America was in the city yesterday. He was born a slave in Henry county, 6e years ago. By ownership, his name would be Edward Abington, but like many others of his race, he preferred that of his slave father and took the name of Edward Dillard, "Dr." Edward Dillard, he having been a successful drug gist in Chicago for several years of his wonderfully prosperous ea ; reer. i The father and mother of the doctor were once owned by Cap tain H. C. France, and a sister of his was owned by Mr. J. H. Schoolfield. Dillard himself was owned by Mrs. Lucindy Abington, who still resides in Henry county. Edward made his escape from slavery in 1863, passing through the hostile lines, made his way to Pittsburg, where he made $2.50 a i a day shoveling pig iron and lived ' on 30 cents a dav until he had j saved up $1,400, when he bought .ahorse and cart and begun the peddling of coal, working in the day, and studying at night. Hav ing added to his capital while in the coal business, he went to Chi cago and opened a drug store. : He employed a capable drug clerk FIVE OF THE CLERKS OF THE SUPERIOR COURT OF THIS CO.

The interview with (jen. Ju lian S. Carr, of Durham, N. C, printed in the Times a week ago, in which he pronounced for ex pansion, against Bryanism and peanut politics, has been widely copied, and papers in the South are proclaiming him the McLau rin of North Carolina. General Carr was in the citv yesterday, and expressed satisfaction be cause his views had been well re ceived. A leading North Carolina poli tician said yesterday : "Gen. Carr will become tho McLauriu of North Carolina pol itics, and will lead a figlit against the machine and the Bryanite element of the party. Gen. Carr is not an anti-corporation man, and has no fight against them; he is a commercial Democrat, and his sympathies and politics are nearer those championed by Mr. McLiurin of South Carolina than those which carried Montague through and defeated Swanson in Virginia. Gen. Carr is one of the most popular men in North Carolina. He is iminenseley wealthy. He has given away in charity and to education and religious institu tions hundreds of thousands of dollars.
