designed to ultimately include all the me-
groes in North Carolina, with view to

elected. A call was issued for State con-
vention to be held in this city, April %, to

pioned mainly by preachers, who are advo-
eating it from. the pulpit. Meanwhile, all
the negroes of this part of the State are
thoroughly crazed by the exodus fever, and
are leaving in hundreds. The rush of emf
grants amounts almost to stampede. Rail-
road officials here state to-day that the rail
roads were unable to transport them fast

to a storm of applause, gave the
signal to raise it once more, and for
many minutes it went up and down and up

adopted of letting the artists skip down to
the footlights through a side door in front
of the drop After the performers had been
seen in body the desire of the audience to
do homage to Herr AlvarY was made mani
fest with even greater distinction than on
the previous evening.
For quite ten minutes 5000 persons,
mainly of the gentler sex, remained on their
feet, clapping their hands and cheering the
young tenor as he emerged again and again
from behind the curtain. The ver9cious
historian that sets down these facts is con-
strained to add to them that large crowd
of music-lovers in fashionably cut gowns
waited until Herr Alvary quilted the Met

fastening themselves. upon him as he made

once assumed the above name and filed his
application for a pension, which he has
been receiving regularly for years. The
real name of the man is not known. al
though he has resided and practiced law on
a very small scale for many years.
His actions would probably have never
been brought to light but for his repeated
and persistent endeavors to become a men,
Der of the G. A. r. of this city. A commit
