he had opened the ball by giving to the
publio an argument in favor of tnoh an
association. But we hope no harm is
don by this oversight on our part. The

that a meeting of those who have sub

to do to, should be held at an earTy day
k a good one, and we hope the time

Origin of Chatauqua.
Tbe Haleigh News saj "How many
know whence comes the name Chatau
qua and where the first Chalauquaa bad
their habitation ' Should ihe question
be &tked, th ret) fourths of our assembly
would answer from a place in New
York named from a tribe of Indians
Yet it owe its origin to our Old North
State so (treat in beginnings of many
things. Chatauqua was the Indian
name of New Heme. To New Berne
belongs the honor of having given its
name to our great teachers' meeting.
There the first Chatauquas copper
colored, black tfhired savages, roamed
and fished, njuch after the fashion of
their modern namesakes. There De
GrsfTenreid visited the king of tbe coun
try and bought the land on which New
Berne stands from Taylor, the king of
the Chatauquas. He describes them as
a kindly race, who treated him on 'cider
and domplins.' That was, however,
before he was taken prisoner and nearly
killed by another portion of this great
Tuscarora tribe. The after history of
this tribe is well known. One of the
six nations, it rejoined the other fire
tribes in New York, taking with it the
name of its Carolina home, the Cha
tauquas." Building and Loan Association.
Editors JocbnaL: We are much
pleased with the remarks of Mr. Pelle
tier in your issue of yesterday upon the
question of organizing a Building and
Loan Association in New Berne, and
we congratulate ourselves that our
efforts in that direction are to be sup
planted by one who is -both capable and
earnest in his endeavors to build up the
waste places of our city.
As yon are doubtless aware we have
been eneaeed durino: the oast rear at
sucn intervals as we could spars tbe
time from our business in soliciting
subscriptions to stock in an association
of this kind, and as the result of onr
efforts, are enabled to report the sub
scription of something over three hun
dred hares, and we doubt not that this
numbeajoan be doubled in a short time
by united effort and oo-cperation.
Tn raDsoriptton list may be seen at
our office at any time, and we will take
great pleasure in reioeiving subscrip
tions or In furnishing any information
in our possession in regard to the opera
tion of snoh associations.
We suggest that a meeting? of the
subscribers be held at sometime during
the present month that steps may be
taken looking to an early organisation.
We trust, gentlemen, that you will
not cease to keep this matter before the
people, that they may be thoroughly
awakened to the importance of the
movement and learn of the great bene-
uta tnat are to now mm it.

- The reduction of internal revenue and
the taking off of revenue stamps from
Proprietary Medicines; no doubt has
largely benefited tbe consumers, ar well
as relieving the burden f bom em an Or
factum. Especially is this the ease
with Ortena August Flower and Bot
eftee's German Syrup, as the reduction
of thirty-six eentt per dosen. has been
added to increase thesia of the bottles
containing these remedies, thereby giv
ing one-fifth more medicine in the 75
oent sis. The Avgutt Flower tot Dys
pepsia and Liver Complaint, and the
German Syrup for Cough and Lung
troubles, have perhaps the largest sale
of any medicines in tbe world. The
advantage of increased sise of the bot
tles will be greatly appreciated by the

Memoir of Edwin Bainbridge.
The above is the title of a neat and
handsomely bound book received at this
office from the Y. M. C. A. in London
through the Chairman of the library
committee of the Y. M. C. A. here. Two
oopiea were sent, the Association retain
ing one of them.
The subject dwelt upon in this book
was a young English tourist who will
probably be remembered as having lost
his life in the terrible volcanic eruption
of Mount Tarawera, New Zealand, tbe
10th of Jane lt&S.
The sketch of the short history of this
young man, who was sailed away at
the premature age of twenty years, is
by Mr. T. Darlington, a school male at
St. John's College, Cambridge. The
preface is by Rev. W. F. Moulton, D. D ,
who was a teacher at the school which
Mr. Bainbridge attended. Mr. Moulton
does not claim for bim a distinguished
career or some great genius, but s
young msn of strong Christian faith
and a character that won the trust and
affection of all who knew him.
In the brief account of the life of this
noble and kind young man Mr. Darling
tou writes:
Edwin bainbridge was burn of Kug
lish parentage May the 5th. 1 ht6 . at
Newcaatle-on-Tyne. Ills father, Cuth
bert Bainbridge, was a prominent men
ber of tbe Wesleyn Methodic Church
and a man of deep piety and unwearied
in the service of Christ, ami genuinely
deeirous for the welfare of his fellow
men, lie died iu 1B73, his beloved wife
soon following So much is there in
an utterance of this father while on his
death bed, we quote "And the children
will grow up to be what their father
be." After this Edwin, with his broth
ers and sisters, was transferred to the
home of his grand parents, in whose
care he remained until his embarkation
for Australia w here his life of usrful
ness was suddenly cut off.
From a few reminiscences treasured
by his sister, Mr. Darlington describes
hrm as a gentle, amiable, bright aud
sunny-faced lad, and though considered
a household pet, was entirely free from
selfishness. Throughout his school davs
he was full of fun and frolic and was
considered quite an athlete by his fel
low students.
In December, 1S&4, he went from The
Leys to London In the employment of
Messrs. Hitchcock Williams & Co., who
were not long in learning to esteem
him for his open countenance and true
manliness of spirit. lie was never
charged with seeking to some special
work to make a display of bis religion,
but on the other hand what seemed to
please hfm most, was in doing good
where tbe little opportunities offered
themselves which lie in every man's
path.
Another blow, in the death of a
brother and sister, soon befell Edwin,
which weighed upon his mind so
heavily that an ocean voyage was
deemed advisable. It was to
embrace Australia, Fiji, New Zealand
and tbe United States. All but the lat
ter were reached.' He sailedin January
1886 by way of the Mediterranean sea
and Indian ocean. On board the ship
he was admired by all, for, said they,
he was so sincere and thoroughly natur
al, you could not help it. From Sydney
be visited New Caledonia, Fiji and
thence to New Zealand where he met
his eventful fate. He arrived there May
the 24th and had a pleasant time up to
the night of the awful calamity of June
9th.
He had left Auokland for Waiora,
the region of the Hot Lakes of New Zea
land which are so highly valued by tour
ists to bathe in for their curative pow
ers. .The first apprehension of the com
ing horror that launched so many souls
into eternity was the violen t shook of
an earthquake, which was soon followed
by a tremendous and deafening roar.
Everybody rushed out of the hotel only
to gace upon what I should suppose to
be one of the most glorious and at the
same time most borrowing spectacles
ever witnessed by mortal man. The
whole top of Mt. Tarawera, ten miles
distant, had blown to pieces and was
belching forth fire and brimstone. They
were out doors but a short while when
elouda of mud and red hot stones began
to fall compelling them to again seek
shelter. More than onoe the hotel took
fire but buckets of water served to put
it out.','; Kotjiutil the roof began to give
way under the falling debris were all
hopes of life abandoned. They gathered
to what was considered the strongest
portion pt the building and it was here
that Edwin Bainbridge proved his oool
ness and perfect oonfidenoo in the power
and wisdom of. God to do .his will. In
this' trying "moment' he told
then that' he believed God had given
them this' tesplto Before the end came,
that they might prepare themselves to
go to His presence; and exhorted them
all if they had not given thefr hearts to.
God. to do so now; and if any of them
should, escape, to let it be the turning
point in tbeir lives, lie pointed ou'
that at the last moment Christ heard
the prayer of the thief upon the cross.
At this moment another terrible crash
came so that his voice could no longer
be heard, lie closed his Bible and took
out his diary and wrote
"This is the mjpt awful moment of
my life. I cannot tell when 1 may be
called upon to mtet my God. lam
thankful that 1 find His strength suf
ficient for me. We are under heavy
falls of volcano .
Another crash and u.t-y all made a
daeh out of doors f.r aome other place
of relief. Mr. bainbridge was crushed
under the falling limbers and when his
body was afterwards lakeu out the
above quotation was fund on bis per
son. Thus ended the life of a noble
youth who had been so trained and
reared as not to fear death ben called
upon
He was buried near by and a rude

Tim people of tbe inter lur and eastern
portion of the Stale have taken up the
question of the propriety if connecting

The difference in favor of New Kerne is
132 miles.
The difference in lengths of route to
Northern ports, for it is to Northern
ports that over nine-tenths of our ship
ments are sent, is not by any means all
that oan be truthfully urged in favor of
New Berne as an objective point for tbe
Cape Fear & Yadkin Valley road. Tbe
transportation would be surer, quicker
and cheaper, the insurance would be
squally as low, if not lower, and there
would be no dangerous ocean storms to
encounter, as the navigation would be
on inside waters. As regards New
Berne as a point for foreign shipments,
the harbor of Beaufort is conveniently
near, only 86 miles by rail, and nearer
.to any point of destination in Europe
than Wilmington, and easier of ingress
and egress. One can easily see how
important it is to the interior of tbe
State that this connection of the two
roads should be made; and it is of vital
importance to the prosperity of, not
only the people of the East, but also
the Atlantic and .North uarouna Koaa,
in which the State is interested to the
amount of one million two hundred and
sixty-six thousand dollars, and from
which she does not receive one fanning
of benefit.
I think I have made a fair and impar
tial statement of the state of publio sen
timent as regards the future of the At
lantio and North Carolina Boad, and
also to the desirability of New Berne as
our outlet for the Cape Fear and Yadkin
Vallev road. I cannot see now tbe
slightest objection ran be urged to this
connection by any one who feels an in
terest m tbe prosperity or tne state.
The two roads, strictly speaking, are
North Carolina roads; ana tne only two
controlled by North Chrolinians, and
the only roads to which the people of
the State and also of the, East oan look
for relief from the fearful pressure
noon their energies made by other
roads controlled by parties inimical to
tho interests of tits people of North
Carolina.-1' wtnrBT.KT.iKP ,
