Labor Us. Leagues.

In the secret and midnight meetings OF
the Loyal Leagues are the ignorant
and credulous negroes of the South banded
together against the white citizens by the
designing me. who want their votes for
their own selfish purposes. TO these oath
bound and secret associations are we IN
debted for much of the present demoraliza-
ton which is rapidly rendering them use
less as Iaborers and injurious as citizens.
We are glad to see by the Richmond
Enqutrey' that measures are being taken III
several counties in Virginia to break up
these leagues, and the subject is worthy OF
attention everywhere. In one county, that
paper informs us, the white people are
succeeding i'll breaking UP the leagues by
requiring non-membership as II condition
of giving the negroes employment. This
same policy has been adopted in other
counties with like success, and Intelligent
and Industrious colored men frequently &C
company their advertisements ior employ
statement that they never have belonged
to the Loyal League, or that they have
Withdrawn from it.
Surely we should Withdraw the Southern
negroes, if possible, from the influences
and teachings of the men who ordinarily
control these leagues. Without regard to
their political opinions, and with DO view
to force them into voting III opposition to
II, or y,;CbnC tho in,D,n1iata vyaIfara of thu
country and their own good demands that
weuse every Legitimate effort to protect their
usefulness. and stand between them and
those who are rendering them a posi-
tive evil to the communities in which they
reside. To this end there should be con
certed action. Some plan should be
adopted, and those who are saved from the
unholy influences of the leagues viii yet
bless us for our efforts.

There is no subject of greater interest,
certainly none of more importance to our
people, than that of Immigration, and it
always gives lis pleasure to publish any
facts connected with it which we think
may prove beneficial to our people. If
there is any future for this section it will
be owing to the introduction of thrifty
and industrious white population to work
our fields, our mines and our manufacto-
ries to wear bright with use the wheels
of industry which now corrode with idle
ness.
Sooner Or later the subject of Immigra-
ton must be brought to practical solu-
tion-must be attempted in real earnest.
Those who soonest realize this fact and act
upOnit, will reap the earliest rewards of their
enterprise. We are not prepared to give
the matter trial upon any extended scale
there is no association of capital to effect
this oblect-alas, there is with us but little
capital to associate. Every one must act
independently and for himself The farm
crs, even those who certainly have no po-
litical prejudices against the negroes, are
satisfied that as q class their usefulness is
very seriously impaired, if not altogether
destroyed. Since the war, planters who
have depended upon the freedmen for Ia
Dor have lost in the proportion of nine in
ten, and many have given up in utter de-
spair. To them, the subject of introdu-
cling white laborers is growing in interest
and Importance, and all would gladly vel
come any plan by which they could en-
ploy white labor upon terms compatible
with their means.
The following letter, addressed to a firm
in this city from Mr. Bomfort, whose adj
vertisement appears in another column, is
published as containing practical informa
ton which some of Or people may feel
justified in awaiting themselves of. A start,
upon a small fcale, must be made, and we
know of no better opportunity. We are
persuaded that those who make the expert
ment in this matter will have 10 cause fo1
regret

We are informed, through letter from
q friend, that General r. E. Co1sToN, the
distinguished Principal of the North Caro-
lima Military Academy, at Hillsboro', will
deliver his popular lecture on General
SToNEwALL JACKSON, in Goldsboro', on
Friday evening next, Goth inst, in the
Presbyterian Church. We are glad to
know that the people of Goldsboro' and
vicinity will have all opportunity to hear
this lecture and form the acquaintance of
the lecturer. Let every admirer of the
Christian soldier, whose character and
services form the subject of the lecture,
every lover of true heroism, every sincere
friend to his country, every patron of
learning and eloquence, be present at the
feast which will be spread be-
fore them on that occasion.
We retarn our thanks for the kind invi-
tation to be present. Nothing would give
us more pleasure, although we have on two
occasions listened to this lecture. We
could never tire of such subject, handled
with such ability and eloquence.

Phillip Drunk,

The Chicago Times, Of the 9th, has the
following account of late performance of
the great rider and the great walker:
Two great men of the nation met in
Chicago few evenings ago. Weston, the
hero of Weston's walk, and Sheridan, the
hero of Sheridan's ride" The place of
meeting was one where liquors were sold.
The two heroes approached each Other,
shook hands, and took drink. Report
has it that they then proceeded to coniu-
gate the interesting verb "to drink" and
got as far as the "past participle," where
the infections became somewhat difficult
to both, and were soon lost in genufiec-
lions. At late hour the bar-kceper found
them endeavoring to conjugate the verb
II to genufect."

The total production Of all kinds Of WING
in the United Statest, as given by the cen
sus of 1850, was 221. 249 gallons. showing
an increase Of 90, 515 gallons over the pro
duction of 1910. But this increase be-
came very significant when compared with
the astonishing multiplication of vineyards
during the last eight years. The animal
yield in the Ohio Valley alone is now over
500, ZOO gallons, and in the whole country
1t is rather above than below 4, 500, 600
gallons.
California, with it's dry and equitable
climate, has seemed to promise the most
satisfactory results thus far. There are
two or three valleys in that State which are
almost exclusively given up to vineyards.
One of these, the Sonoma, is said t. con-
tain the neatest, most carefully managed,
and most productive vineyards III the coun-
try, the product ranging from 22,OC0 to
43, 600 gallons for each vineyard per an
mum.
The total production of wine in Califor-
MA for the past year will be over 4, OO0 600
gallons. About the half of this is for ex-
rort to the West Indies and Japan, for
strange as it may seem, California has been
for some time supplying that portion Of
the old world with her productions. There
are 200 acres bearing grapes on the
Pacific slope, and it is estimated that 90
900 more are in a preparatory condition
which will come under cultivation during
the next year. Nine tenths of the entire
product is what is known in the market as
hook, or white wine.
In regard to the natural advantages of
California for grape culture, Mr. Charles
L. Brace, who has been over the country
with the advantage of a previous acquaint-
ance with the vineyards of Europe, recent
~ wrote:
In this wonderful climate the grape thrives
to perfection. The total rainfall in Cali
fornia is only Il. inches, while on the
Rhine it is n inches, and at Bordeaux 81
and even in Malaga %. 3 inches. It is rare
to find ayear in Germany or France in which
damp or frosts do not iniure the grapes
Here they are never injured. Rot is I'M
known, and disease scarce ever attacks the
vines. The mean annual temperature of
California is almost exactly that of Cadiz !;

The Ibberville South, OF the 7th instant.
informs us of the death of Brigadier Gen.
Walter III. Stevens. He was Il native of
New York, graduated at West Point in 1919,
and remained in the United States army
attached to the engineers, until the war
broke out. He had married daughter OF
the late Valery Hebert, of Ibbervilie, in
this State, and espoused the cause ot his
adopted State. During the war he was al
tached to Gen. Deauregard's command as
engineer officer, with rank of BrigaGier
General, and surrendered at AppomattoN
Court House, at its close. After this he
went to Mexico, where he was chief cnGiu-

Federal Government, if the negroes were
the tax payers of the country for the pull
pose of controlling elections and forming
constitutions for the government of white
men. When the South becomes produc-
tive, and not charge upon the National
Treasury. will the North be freed from the
industrial prostration which now depresses
her business interests and then, too, will
her industrious masses find remuneratlve
and constant employment this alone will
give that reform to the financial and revenue
systems of the country which viii restore
confidence in the currency of the govern
ment this alone will bring that relief
which will prevent ultimate reputation.
