Chamber of Commerce.
There was a very small attendance
at the meeting of the Chamber of Com
merce last night, there being some
misunderstanding, the general impres
sion among our citizens being that
it was called for tonight.
It was moved and carried that a meet
ing, and a big one at that, be held
in the Opera 1 House Monday night.
It was intimated that the committee on
subscriptions had some news of a yen
interesting chatacter to report.
- '
Vorlt Is the IVord,
Oxford is getting up a grand enter
tainment the proceeds" of which aie
to be offered by that town for the lo
cation of the Baptist Female College
there. That - just beats the biggest
thing yet done, and it shows that
town unqualifiedly in. earnest about
getting that college.
The above is from the Raleigh Call
and is intended to spur its people to
greater exertions. Here is an item
from the News- Observer which ought
to have the same effect upon our citi
zens :
The still hunt of the committee to
ra:se, funds to secure the location of'the
Baptist Female University in this city
is being pushed to a great success. Oh,
Raleigh will get there, or the Univer
sity will get heje. . ,
