LOCAL NEWS.
MONDAY EVENING, AUGUST 26.

LOCAL ENTERPRISE. Our people should
wake up more fully than they now are to the
inheritance Of sustaining and encouraging home
manufactures and local enterprise. It is a tru-
lam that Shy encouraging home industry we
benefit ourselves" Every one who spends
money out of his neighbolhood for that which
he might purchase at home, is injuring not his
peiehbors merely who produce Or manufactures,
but himself also. The grocer who orders his
anti of clothing from Baltimore tailor, as is
known to be done by parties in our city, pre-
vents to that extent some citizen here from
earning money here wbict would be laid out
here for groceries And so of every other
branch of industry The doctrine that we
should help one another, is one more eminently
important now than ever, in local sense. 1t
is seldom true. as is alleged by some, that pur-
chssers cannot fLd what they want here, un-
less it be in some rare cases. The writer has
personal knowledge that many persons 60 or
send to Washington or even further, for articles
without even inquuing the price here and not
unfrequent!y they subsequently ascertained that
their PURCHASES could have been made more
cheapIy at home. Encourage home manufac-
lures, home industry, home enterprise of every
sort 1t is time enough to 60 or send to Wash
ington or Baltimore when diligcnt search de-
yelops the fact that what we want is not to be
obtained here How can merchants be expect
ed to keep or have articles for sale, if no one
creates an impression that they are in demand
by occasional enquiry for them? 1t is stated
OF certain profession here, at least two-thirdo
of the work done for cur citizens in the line of
that profession is done in Washington 1t is
no wonder that times are dull, and energies
crAmped, and that young men have left, and
are leaving here for more thrifty scenes of en-
terprise when local trade and home enterprise
are sighted. We want all our young men we
can not spare them they should be encour
aged in every possible way to stay here; and
The best and surest road to local prosperity is
10 hel p them in their effors to do business,
feeling we'll assured, as We may, that in help
ing our neighbor we benefit ourselves by put
ting him 10 way to help US, and by adding to
the business prosperity Of the city, we add to
the prosperity Of each individual resident

4 Coop SERMoN.-My own church being
closed yesterday, I attended, by invitation, the
colored peoples NJ. 4. Church, on Wash
ington street, where [ was pleased to find a
large and attentive congregation, composed
of colored people, most of whom are our old
citizens, who have, Notwithstanding the excite
ment of the times, and the attempted interter-
ence of designing politicians, maintained their
religious integrity, and allow their church to be
used only for the purpose for which it was erect
ed, in 1882 the worship of true God. The
sermon by the pastor, Rev. Henry Ebert,
from the text, Whatsoever man soweth that
shall he also reap" was one of the most
evangelical and impressive | have heard for
long time, showing All understanding OF
the Scripture, depth of thought, and entire
self possession that We tail to find in many Of
