Are the patriotic North Caro-
llnians at home resolved to have
nothing whatever to do with the
purchase. of "Old Fort" on Roam
oke Island, in this Slater It looks
that way. A prominent North
Carolinian living in Baltimore
writes us that thus far but 500
of the 81 600 have been raised,
and of this small sum bot $500
have been raised in Nosah Caro-
lima. The 500 have BEEN raised
as follows: About $3.50 In Balti
more, given by native North
caroliniaus residing In that city,
and sr5oSSSIsed by Profesa0r I'd
ward Graham Dawes In Massa-
chusetts. Surely the w&!l-to-do
men of North Carolina will no
longer refuse to help in NE pur-
chase. There are plenty rich men
who could give 500 each and be
richer by the giving. The cause
is one that appeals peculiarly to
North Carolina pride Of State,
Our correspondent refers US to an
article in the AMERICAN, but we
do not receive that paper. 1t
would bsa repreach upon the in
telligenee and liberality 1t 500
needed to complete the purchase
should not be raised in the State.
The patriotic North Carolinians
in Baltimore have set indeed a
noble example, and let our peo-
pie emulate it at ONCE: Raise the
money. What are 800 for 1900
900 people to raise? 1t is a mere
triAe. Shame and reproach if it
is not done-Wil1nington Mes
