ARE THKEE 1IUN IHi:i THOUSAND SOUT1I- i:km:ks in gotham. Rev. Thomas Dixon, Jr., llim seli' One of the Brightest and Biggest, -Tells What Some North Carolinian: Are Doing in the Metropolis. . Nkw York, April 25. I have been promising for six months a letter I will give it this morning, if I have to strain a point. ' I thought I had been a busy man be fore, moving to New York; but since coming here I know what it is, I think, to be busy. I promise my self to do a thing, and find , six months latei , that it had slipped my memory for .that short space of time. 1 . ,."'f..y . . "i There arer thousands of .Southern people in' New Y'ork City. There i no eity in the North in which there are so many Southerners. There are perhaps : nearly three hundred thousand Southern people in New York City . - North Carolina has her share . I can only ,mention in this letter three or four names; reserving others for a future letter. CHARLES F. DEEMS. In thinking of North Carolina in New York,Nthe first name that nat urally occurs to us is that of Dr. Deems. He is a man of national re putation, a man of international re putation, lie is a scholar and an orator. His influence in New Yor ia wide-spread and wholesome. lie is one of the New Y'ork celebrities. As President of the Institute of Christian Philosophy , his influence is ever broadening; He is the an thor of several ver- successful books, a voluminous and successful writer It is curious to remember the sue ce&s Dr. Deems Ji'as made m this great metropolitan; t-entrev-and com - -. pare it with the estimate . that some of his North Carolina friends might put upon him. I remember for in stance, one evening the Doctor was booked to lecture in Goldsboro. I eagerly took advantage of the- op portunity' to see him. To my amazement, ! found there were only twelve or thirteen people in the audience . I could not but recall the old saying, that , "A prophet is not without honor, save in his own country ." The Doctor laugh ingly took in the situation, and ad journed the meeting to some other day.' - j It seems somenow riecessary for a man to leave home, jin order to be come the highest of 'which he is ca pable. Henry M. Stan lev', the man whose name is- now , "on the lips of the world, kings, -princes,- and com mon people, alike doing him honor, when he was in America some years a;o, was sometimes greeted with an audience as small as seven. Dr. Deems reflects srreat honor upon his.native state and church He is a broad gauged man, buils on a broad pattern, thiriks big thoughts and lives them in his life. "What a pity it is that there is no career for such a man, or there has not been, as yet, at least, in North Carolina. One reason, of course, is that North Carolina is a rural- state', has no cities, while the Held for modern .'--"-' i " genius must inevitably be the city It is useless, for this reason, for us to grieve over the departure of such men. The development of the modern city is a development of the country. It is the highest work of the civilization of the age, destined to mightier influence in the future than it "has ever had in the past Such men will inevitably, find their home in these centers. WALTER II. PAGE. The man I see most of perhaps is your old friend , th founder of the Chronicle, Mr. Page. He isv now the manager of the Forum. His of fice is not far from "my, church , only across Madison Sauare. two blocks- up Fifth avenue, and I manage to drop in to see himj every few days, lie is a busy man, on whose should ers now rest's the entire business of this great magazine. He keeps a half dozen clerks and stenographers busy at work. The magazine has shown the touch of his talent since he took 'hold of Its management. The volume of its business has vast-; ly increased. Its advertising patron age increased without precedent. , The dividends to ;the; stockholders iave increased, accordingly. Mr. Page has good reason to be proud of what he has achieved, thus far in this short time. The Forum ' is the strongest published in New York of its character, st.rrmo-pr than the North American Review, or than any others that compete in this field. The position he occupies is one of importance and of honor. Mr. Page is a member of the Southern Society and of the New York Reform Club. In the latter, he takes con siderable interest. His influence is being 'elt as a practical power in' American political life As a writer, his articles are eagerly sought by the metropolitan press and well paid for.; A.Ve have, in Mr. Page, anoth er illustration of what a man can do away from home that could not be done at home . : The reason for this is very simple. There was no field in North Carolina for such a man, at' the time he un dertook his work. The great citv with its rush and roar and busy life, could furnish the only field for the capacity and peculiar genius of such a man. Such men find their place as easily as the water finds its level, if they only make up their mind that they will not rest content with anything short of th highest things they may attain. ; It is laughable, when I reflect upon the estimate that some good friends put upon Page while in Raleigh. I remember I heard it said by several, that he was visionary, not practical he did not have practical business talent a good fellow; but lacked business foresight, business tact a good writer, good thinker: but could not succeed from a business point of view. Yet he has succeeded in the most difficult kind of business, in the most difficult field on the Amer- ican continent. . These talents he undoubtedly possessed, while he was at home. It was a not a question of talent ; it was a question' Of oppor tunity. ' AVe are ! proud that he is a North Carolinian. His life is lief ore him, not behind him, and you will hear more of him in the future than you have in the past. DR. J. H. PARKER. The President of. the New . York Cotton Exchange is a North Caro linian, Dr. Parker, who hails from the town of "Wilson. He is not an old man, though getting a little bald. He is a conspicuous example of a successful . business man. He worked his way up from small to the front rank. He. is a man of fine business talent, a man pf wide influ ence in the, business world, a man of brains and capacity. He has a home up in the aristoratic quarter Mur ray Hill a liome that is a poem in furniture, carpets and frescoes, and his charming wife, who is also a Southern woman, makes you feel at home when you go there. How much he is worth I dp- not know; but his fortune is well established. He and his family, although not Baptists, attend oiir church .pretty regularly . ' JAMES W. OSBORNE, ESQ. Jim Osborne has his law office at No. 10 Wall street, the firm name being Shepard A Osborne. He is a charming talker, j a witty, brilliant fellow, who can make you laugh un til the tears come. In describing his early experiences in New Y'oxk, he says the first thing he discovered when he came here to practice law was that he did not know anything about law; so he; dropped his at tempts to get business and entered Columbia College for "a course in law. He took the Columbia College course, and during this course took such a stand, and so won the estima tion of some men of wealth and in tluence with whom he came in con tract, that a business opening was obtained on "Wall street. He has been there, now, five years, and is doing a good business. , That y oung lawyer should be able to make his bread and meat, within five 3'ears after settling on Wall street, is phenomenal. There are ten thou sand young lawj-ers in New York City who are now working for noth ing, witn the hope of earning enough to pay board at a second- class boarding house at the end of any apprenticeship of from three to four years. They are graduates of Harvard rYale, Princeton, Cornell, Columbia and other great colleges of America. There are two or three of these young college graduates in the office of Shepard & Osborne now who are working, away with might and main, in the" hope of making , enough to pay board within three or four year?. There is no field per haps in thje city In which there is such tremendous j pressure as that of law, no fhjld in which success is so hard to achieve. Unless a young man has a; fund at home from which to draw, and does not want to ' 5 starve, hef better not venture into New York; as a lawyer. In view of these facts, Osborne's success is a conspicuous one. But he comes of a family o lawyers. His brother Frank, of Charlotte, is to my mind om of the sharpest lawyers! have ever known, north, south, eastjr west. I should like to see him Spitted against Cplpnel In gefsoll in at jury trial in New York. Ie is one f the few men I know who could to my mind, successful ly stem the torrent of buncombe, of sarcasm, of invective, of pathos and of humor, !tha Ingersoll hurls at a jury. Frank Osborne could do it, think, wth a great deal better suc cess than t(he thousand and one law- 1 . ' yers who Cry it. r I think Dim Osborne is going to make a lawyer of equal power and as great or greater success in his work than Fran k . It will take him New York; but onger to d? it in when it isidone, success will mean ten times more. DI W. B. PlilTCHAUD. "Within I about . ;f our years, Will .Mtchard pas achieved in New York City a permanent and lucrative prac tice as a physician. This is a re markable Jact. He has made a liv- j i ing from the first, which is more remarkablie still. I New York turns out doctors by the score and by the hundred ,e very year. It is the Suc- leadquarters for the doctor. ' 1 i i cess is hard to achieve. Young doc the hope of ends meet. i tors toil for years in barelv niaking both itchardjhas had; a lucrative prac tice now for two years.

It amuses me", wheni 1 look pack at our college ife that jwe spent together, and think of Will's way wardness and the natural perversity' of his methods, of study and work, and think now of the seriousness with which he I -grapples with the; difficulties of his work, and the real progress that he is making! as a student and practi tioner. "VYe cannot always tell bv what a man does at college what he will do in life. Will had a good time, when he was at college, and refused td be hampered by the in- con veniehces of hard work; but he is-now one of the hardest workers j'Ou can fiind, happy in the love of his little wife whom her home? in North. he took from Carolina.

He will be glad to chat; jwith you; that is, unless you are like, some who' call, who want to raise funds to get back home. My advice and his advice, to all whq come to such a place as New York, is too see to it, above all ... things, tlfat somewhere stowed away in the pocjket there is enough money a buy a return ticket. I am besieged almost every day in the year by somebody who is stranded in this bi city . It is simply amaz ing, the number of folks that mi grate here from the four quarters of this big country. There is no school that will teach a man wisdom quicker than to tramp around thes- streets for aboutUwo months , trying to find work, gojing to two dozen places every day and meeting with the same sucqess, which is simply utter failure .

A Pithy and Sensible Article from a Beaufort County , Colored Teacher. i The school teacher is no small fac tor in solving the Negro Problem. Then how important is it for us to push forward the work with all the vigor and ability at our command, arouse our people to a sense of their duty in this respect, and keep them warned as to the; great danger of neglecting the education of our youth. How can a teacher bederel lict in his duty when he sees around him the ponderous mass of ignor ance, superstition and lethargy among his own race, and then including the neglect and unconcern and opposi tion from a large : class, resulting from the above cause. Let us agi tate this question at all times, and get the patrons in the habit of do ing the same. ieachers, behold your sphere of labor! It it an hon ored and dignified calling, whether in the" city or in the country, whether you are surrounded with all the ad vantages that money and science can give, or whether 3'ou are in the dis tant country precinct, with only a log cabin where practical astronomy may be taught without being put to the inconvenience of going out doors, whether you are teaching an advanced school or a primary one, whether you have a big salar- or small one, whether you are teaching the rich or the poor, you are leading on to a higher plane human beings who will act their part in the great drama of life. A school teacher is not the product of a day's work, and when we consider the countless obstacles that have stood, and still stand, as immovable rocks in the pathway of our progress, it is not difficult to discover the causes. In i , . . . . some school districts the progress is very greatly obstructed by school committeemen. Their cry is, "a cheap teacher;'' or school deffered till it is convenient for cousin "A." to teach. But regardless of that it is our duty as teachers to labor earnestly at all times, for the dawn ing of a new day cannot be far. Equip your pupils with the habili ments of intellectual power and sagacity, and when wre shall have turned aside our successors will car ry on the work with a vigor that will never lag. M. A. Butts. Washington, N. C. . Teachers and friends, I will re mind you that I have been recently appointed, as agent for "The Free man," a national colored newspaper and the only pictorial colored journ al published in the United States, and for1 which your subscription is solicited. I M. A. B. Caho for Solicitor. Pamlico Cofnty, N. C. . f. April 18th, 1890. Editor Gazette: Will you give. me space to nominate in your columns my friend and your friend,. Hon. W. T. Caho, of Pamlico, for Solicitor of this district. I have not one word to say against our present Solicitor. He is able and makes a good Solicitor , Of course some find fault of him, and some would find fault of anybody, but I believe he has made a good Solicitor and done his duty, but he has had the place for eight years and he can riot complain if it is. now given to somebody else . Hon. Vf. T. Caho is competent and worthy of the position , and all Who know him will sa, every Democrat in this district knows, how true and faithful he has worked for the Dem ocrat party, in season aad out of season . No Democrat has been more faithful, or done more for the party than he has, and now I think it is time for the party to do some thing for him. lie is a Christian gentleman, a good lawyer and a Democrat that would command the votes of the entire Democratic party and many Republicans in this coun ty: I believe he would get almost the solid vote of both parties in this county. I don't think a better selection could be made when the convention ; meets, than to select him . Now let his friends in all the counties in this district go to work for him and; nominate him.

VON EBEKS11EN. Praj er is a petition reverentially addressed to Almighty God, the author of our being. ; When you have prayed, do you not find that your heart is become more light, and your mind more satisfied? Prajers render affliction less painful, and joytmore pure; it mix es the one with something I; know not what, strengthening, and sweet, mild and gentle, to the other a celes tial perfume, j What are jou doing upon the earth? have 3 0U nothing to ask from the - one who placed ycu upon it ? You are a traveller seeking a coun try. Do not walk with 3-our head bent downward; you must raise 30 ur eyes to recognize your road, j Your county, it is the heavens; and when you look at. the heavens, is it that within you nothing stirs itself ? is it that there are no desires which press 3rou ? or is that desire mute and silent ? There are some who say : What good is there in piling ? God is too much above us to listen to so vile creatures as we are. And who then made these vile creatures, who gave them the feeling, the thought and the speech, if it was not God? And if he has been so good towards them, was it afterwards to forsake, and to repel them at a distance from him ? In truth, I sa3 to 3 0U, whoever sa3's in "his heart that Gd disdains his works blasphemes God. j! . There are others who say: j What good is there in pra3 ing ? Does not God know better than we do what are our wants, what we are in need ot? God knows better than 'Oti 'whereof or what 3-ou are in need of and that is the reason that he wants and wishes that you ask it of him; for God is himself your first need, arid pra3'ing to God, this is begin nig to possess God. ! The father knows the needs of his son; 'and must it be on that account that the son has never one word of demand and expression of gratitude for his father ? I When the animals suffer, when they have fear, or when the3' are hungry, they scream in a plaintive and doleful manner. These screams are the prayers that they address to God, and God hears them. If it then is to be that now only in the creation is the only being of whom the voice is never to ascend to the ear of the Creator. There passes sometimes over the fields a wind which dries the plants, I and then one sees their withered stalks and stems lean, and bend to wards the grand; but wet and hum ectate them with the watering-pot, they will retake their freshness, raising their pinning and withered heads. There are alwa3s scorch ing and burning winds, which pass over the soul of man and which dry it up. Prayer is the dew which refreshens and invigorates it. Train the Girls' Hands. It is highly important, in educa ting a girl to be an efficient self reliant women, that ber hand shoujd be trained to be usefu . Of course the details of her education should be arranged with regard to the social position .vhich she will probably occupy. In ordinary ca ses the hand should be as carefully trained as the brain; for, to fulfill thfe ordinary duties which fall to the lot of average women, a "useful hand is absolutely necessary. Girls who have the advantage of stud3. ing at our female colleges and high schools, do not as a rule, belong to the wealthy and aristocratic circles where every domestic duty is per-f formed by servants. The general ity of such girls will not, when they are married, hjfve a staff of servants and a housekeeper to look after them; they will have to be their own housekeepers for the most part, with probably only one or two servants under them. In such a household as this the wife must assist 11 all is to gc well, and her head and hands must be the chart and helm of the domestic ship. j; I As an assistance 1 in acquiring manual dexterity, such as is often required in housewifery, teaching of some musical instrument is not to be overlooked. . A trained hand can always perform its task, and, guided by and educated brain of average intelligence, will j soon learn to perform any ordinary do mestic necessity well (N. T. Ledger.) SOME DAY.
