Only a few k years ago the seed of tin cotton plant ^ was practically a was'e p:oluct. and , often a source of annoyauce, if not acta tl expense to th? planter. Ti:a growth of the cotton oil industry ' has hoon harrlltr chnrt nf mftrxrolnna T.Act ' year there were shipped nearly 40,000,000 gallons of the oil to Europe, a lar<^e increase over all previous years, ^ and it is confidently expected that the exports of oil for the present year will be very mucb greater.

Reversals in industry, equally as remarkable a* this would be, have herelofoie occurred Five or six years ago the principal! mines in Colorado were known as jilvtr uiinc^, though they also contained gold.

There was published in jester Jay's panerja newsjtem from The Wilmington Messenger, setting forth that on Friday last tbe business men of thu :ity through a committee of two gen- j Piemen, paid over $t>yu to me several negro lodges which owned The Becord building which was burned oo the LOth of November last, when the plant if The Record wa? demolished. The public knows all about (bis o?cnrrenee. J fhat paper had made an infamous j atterance and its office had to be ] sacked. While this was io progress i :he building caught fire and was con- j sumed. It was claimed at the litne j md has been claimed ever since that. ;he fire was accidental. We hive our j loubts about that; it seema much j aaore probable that the fire was de- j iberately applied by some irresponsible member of the mo b?some lightleaded, hot-headed person, such a3 ilways attaches himself to a movement I >f this character. Bat however this may be, the poiat; ipon ^hich we would fix public &t:ention is this: that tbe just and fairninded people of Wilmington have voluntarily paid for the building jnrned. As said above, the printing >ffice had to be sacked; moreover, the , iditor of the paper bad to be driven iway. These thing* were acts of astice?stern jastice, it is tree, bat ustice. Bat tbere was no purpose o visit barm upon the innocent, and s&AQ harm mm a tn .the proitprty of. >rderly and unoffending uegroes, hrongh no fault of tbe good men of rVilinington, they "promptly, like tbe ast and generous people they are, loutributed the money and paid for it. rhis proves that they do not/hatetbi tegro, as sach, nor seek to punish him oerely because he i3 black. The nayor and chief of police whom they an away were white; Manly, the iditor, black. All were run off not iccanse they were either black or yhite; not, primarily, because they vere Republicans, but because tbev ?ere bed citizens, disturbers of the ieace. Tn novinor fnp Bcwiwi hnildlTiy I he white poople of Wilmington did ?hat was right; at the same time rqat was generou?, liberal, as these hiog$ go.
