The Laurads's Safe Return

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, May 22.-
The steamer Laurada entered the
bar yesterday and was met at
quarantine by J. A. Huau, agent
Of the Cuban Junta and a number
Of friends Of Cuba. The Laurada's
captain reported that he had
landed safely on Cuban shore
ninetenths Of the ammunition.
While attempting TO land the last
load smoke was seen on the horison
and fearing il to DO from the fun
nels Of a Spanish man Of war, the
steamer pulled up anchor and
started northward. After CON-
municating this information the
Laurada headed seaward. After
communicating this information
the Laurada headed seaward
ostensibly for New York. The

Durham has many causes o.
thankfulness to the great arbitel
Of trade--and all else, for a gen
erous distribution of her oppor
tunities as the first and greatest
tobacco market of the state, which
for many years, it was. .5
Before w. I. Blackwell, who
builded the market, and per Sc
quence, the town also, met with
the misfortune of having 10 settle
the debts Of so many other people,
the tobacco market here was first
and foremost both in quantity sold
and in prices.
Since that day, a narrower
policy has dominated, and sales
have fallen off from seventeen to
seven million pounds, although
the output Of our factories here
have been steadily on the increase.
There is something wrong
about all this; what, or why the
Recorder must leave to those more
directly interested to correct.
For some cause, unknown to
us, the men who have been the
bulwarks of the trade in the past
are seeking new fields to invest in
tobacco. One by one they quietly
dropped down to the new markets
in the eastern part Of the state,
and to clap the climax, it is an.
nounced now that Capt. c. A. w
Barham, the most potent drawing
card lef. here, is going to Wilson
for a year.
What we want to emphasize is
that if the Durham tobacco mar
ket proposes to keep running, 1t
cannot afford to dispense with the
service of Captain Barham, who
has been for seventeen years, both
OIL account of his auctioneering
ability, and his popularity with
the farmers, second only to Buck
Blackwell, the father of the whole
business. -~~-

Revolutionary Records.

A find OF great value to the
student Of history and heredity
has been made in the Office Of
the auditor Of the state.
The official records Of the
North Carlina Line in the Con.
tinental army have been dis.
covered. When Sherman came
to Raleigh with his blazing
torch he destroyed in pure wan
tonness many Of the rarest and
most valuable records of the
state. II was thought that
these records Of the revolution
had met the same fate that be-
fell so many other valuable
state documents.
In searching through the re-
cords Of the Office a few days
ago Mr.. T. Palmer Jerman,
chief clerk, came upon the Off
cial pay>list Of the North Caro-
lima Line.
The only official records of
the North Carolina soldiers Of
the revolution heretofore acces-
sible were those of the pension
Office in Washington, and as
few Of the survivors applied for
pensions, the list amounted to
little.
In his address at the late
meeting OF the sons Of the
American revolution, at Rich
mond, the secretary general,
Mr.. Franklin Murray, spoke of
the incompleteness.of the revo-
lutionary records, and especial
| ly those Of North Carolina; to
become a member of the sons Of
the American revolution, the
applicant must produce an Off
