North Carolina, is published in the: Wash.

yors the separation of the white and black
races, and advocates the colonization of the
blacks by the Government. He declares in
sincerity that if this separation does not
take place, the Southern States will, in ten
years, relapse into barbarism, and asserts
that hispefsonal observation convinces him
thasthe labor of the black race cannot be
made, available in the South. In North
Carolina be adds, public opinion is uuani-
NOUS in favor of the separation of the white
and black races, aud that the same view is
gaining strength rapidly over the South

Heavy Robbery near Warren, Ohio
$4,000 Stolen.
rErt1Yra ba pItfshnt1I

On Friday last, as we learn from reliable
source, a most bold and successful robbery,
on the highway, vas peTpctrated near War
ren, Ohio, under circumstances which render
It difficult to detect the thieves Mr. George
". Van Gortler, q resident of Warren, had
recently so@d farm In 1own for 81, GOO, and
had returned to Warren for the purpose OF
purchasing farm In the vicinity. On Friday
he left home, in company with his father.ia-
Law, to look at place some distance from
the town, which he had concluded to- pur-
chase. He took his money-consisting of
s11, 600 In compound interest notes, ard 6, 900
in smaller bifls-tntending to- pay for the
tarrn. The bargain was not consummated,
however, mud the two got into their buggy to
return home. When crossing a covered
bridge, one mile from Warren, at about SIX
o'clock in the evening, the horses suddenly
stopped aud refused to proceed any further.
Atr. Van Gorder, fearing that plank Of the
bridge had been misplaced, got out Of the
buggy 10 examine the floor, 1t being so dark
that be could zee nothing distinctly. Just as
he got ont fhe was seized by the throat and
choked until he became insensible, In the
meantime his wallet vas taken from an inside
coat pocket, and his assailants fed. His
father-iu.law was not disturbed, the thieves
being evidently posted as to had the money.
It Is said TINT the fact OF Mr. Van Gordcr's
being possessed Of this large sum Of mouey
WAS known to b1t three persons. As yet,
however, no arrests hare been made.
