a BIG EXODUS IN TROUBLE.
Fifteen Hundred Negroes at Goldsboro,
n. c., Waiting for Emigrant Agents who
have been Driven Away.

lSpec,al 10 Cne News ana courier.
CHARLOTTE, n. G., February 12-For
the past few days things have been
very lively in Wayne County, and the
local military companies have been
standing ready for service at their cap
tains' command. In that part of the
State the negro population is dense,
and nearly every year many Of them
emigrate to other States, where they
are made to believe milk and honey is
plentiful and gold grows upon trees.
It seems that this year the ex-
odus amng the negroes is greater than
heretofore, and consequently the wrath
Of the old farmers, who depend upon
them to pick their cotton and do farm
work, has been wrought up to its high
est pitch seeing their labor carried off
by the sweet promises Of emigrant
agents, who are generally very num-
erous in the eastern portion of the
State at this season Of the year.
A telegram from Wayne County to-
night brings news that nearly all the
white citizens are armed and fully de-
termined to stop negro emigration
from that county. Two military COM
panies are out to stop any trouble that
may arise. John P. Richardson, who
is the largest Southern farmer, and
who has been in the county 70 en-
ploy negroes to to Tennessee, Louis
lana and Mississippi to work on his
farms, has been made to leave the
county alone. Other emigrant agents
who have visited Wayne County in
the last three days have been compelled
by determined citizens to leave on the
first train. & s
There was a very exciting scene to-.
day at Goldsboro, where there were
800 negroes, with their families, who
had sold all their household pIunder
and were waiting for the emigrant
agents, who had been made to leave
town, to furnish them passage.
The negroes are almost riotous, and
only the glittering of the militia rifles
prevents bloodshed.
DISTRESS OF THE NEGROES HUDDLED
AT GoLDsBoRo.
CHARLOTTE, February 14.-Adyiees
from Wayne County are to the effect
that the negroes are in destitute cir
cumstances. in great numbers. At
Goldsboro, many hundred remain iu
hopes that the emigaant agents will
come to carry them away. They have
no money or food, having exhausted
all their means while idle preparing to
emigrate.
The railroad company now refuses to
furnish cars to carry the negroes away.
It is said that the cars would in all
probability be burned if they stopped
in that county. The mayor of Colds
bcro is feeding the hungry: crowd and
they sleep in empty box cars and about
the depot platform. There are women
and children among them and it is
sad looking crowd.

In Port Townsend, people got nerv-

The people OF Port Towns will not

we cannot even reply to the sneer which
taunts us with DeryOusGess on bearing

The Laugh of a Woman.

Here's something as pretty as it can
be: "A woman has no natural gift more
bewitohiDg than a sweet laugh. 1t is
like the sound of flutes on the water. 1t
leaps from her in clear, sparkling rilI;
and the heart that hears it feels as if
batbed in a csol, exhilarating spring.
Have you ever pursued an unseen fu2i-
tive through trees led on by the laugh
now here, now there. now lost, now
foundt We have, and We are pursuing
that wandering voice to this day. Some
times it comes to US in the midst of care,
or sorrow, or irksome business, and then
We turn away and listen. and hear it
ringing through the room like a silver
bell, with power to scare away the evil
spirits of the mind. How much We owe
to that sweet laugh! 1t turns tbs prose
to poetry, it filings showers of sunshine
over the darkness Of the wood in which
We are travelling; it touches with light
sven our sleep, which is no more the
image OF death, but is consumed with
dreams tfat are the shadows of immor-

The OId Custom House.

The brick building now owned
and occupied by y. D. Hill
& Sons as their drug store at the corner
OF Quincy and Water streets was built
in 1859 by Col. Morris II. Frost, at that
time collector Of customs, and the sec
oEd story was occupied 10y him as the
custom house. The lower story was
use for a drug store by DR.. T. NJ.
O'Brien, surgeon of ths L. ). marine
hospital, aud his father, DR.. Stauoton.
They were succeeded by DR.. George Y.
Calhoun and James VI. Harmed, aud
finally the property all passed into the
hands of Dr. y. ID. Hill who With his sons
has occupied it ever since as a drug
store. The business OF the firm has
been SO prosperous that it has become
necessary to remove the present build
ing, aud replace it 10y a more com
modious structure. The location is one
OF the best in the city, al q We learn that
is the intention OF DR.. Hill t1 build 4

TERRIBLE CONDITION.

As will be seen from the report of the
Street Commissioner the sanitary condi-
sion OF this city is in most deplorable
condition, particularly in the rear of the
public places on Water Street.
Certainly there must he q dereliction
OF duty on the part OF those who have
been placed III charge OF the sanitary
condition OF the city, or else the Street
Commissioner must have misrepresented
matters.
We have ordinances governing nearly
every evil, and particularly one govern
ing this matter, and it is the duty OF the
street Commissioner, and in fact every
oflcer IN the employ Of the city, to make
complaint against any person violating
this or any other ordinance; and should
They not do so they are guilty OF violat-
ing the duties imposed i'll them.
Ii such a condition of affairs exist, as
stated 1t IS great wonder that consider

Public Water Works.

EDITOR ARGUs-After Seattle's exper-
ience with fire, and in view of Port Town
sends wretchedly, defenceless condition,
it would be a good year to issue city
bonds and erect public water works ade-
quate to meet the future demands OF our
growing city. Victoria owns her water
works, and is not only paying interest on
her bonds, but is deriving net revenue
of something like 10000 a year. All
this with water rents only 81 per month
