The only fear Is for the half-breeds
who voted for the treaty.

The Negro Editor Flee*.
The colored editor. Manly, hi* bro
ther and their associates have fled,
and could not be found by the eitl
sens. After destroying the printing
house, the march*ts returned to the
armory, where they had left a rapid
fire machine mounted in a wagon,
ready to be dispatched to ihe scene If
a battle should occur. The I aders
of the crowd said subsequentiy that
it was not the Intention to burn the
building, that it was the work of some
rash persons, or by accident, and did
not have rbe concurrence of the com
mittee.
Today’s action of the whites is a se
quel to yesterday’s meeting. The ap
pointment of the committee was the
result of the action by which the ne
groes were given until this morning
to return an answer to the demand '
for the removal of the press and the i
cessation of tha publication of The
Record.
Last night was an anxious one for
the citizens in the residence section.
■ About 8 o'clock a street car came into
J the business section and reported that
| the negroes had fired into it, and ihe
j passengers had returned the fire. The
car, loaded with armed men, was soon
speeding toward the scene of the trou
ble, hut the offenders escaped. The
entire eastern section of the town was
aroused and armed men were on the
| street cars, on every corner and pa
j trolling the dark streets. In the he
gro distict thirty or forty young ne
; groes assembled, but were not armed
I and were not violent, and the older
men said they did not contemplate
j trouble.
All night long the whites kept guard
i about the business and residence sec
tions, but no incident occurred to dis
turb the night.
The Scene Shifts.
At 10:30 the scene shifted to anoth
er section of the city. Scarcely had,
the marchers disbanded at the armory
before word passed that 800 or 400 ne
gro laborers at the cotton compresses
had knocked off work aaJ were assem
bling. Armed men hurried to the rivet
front and took positions at the head of
the streets leading to the docks. The
negroes gathered in groups of 15 or 20-
huddled together and apparently were
much excited. They were soon in a

The Resolutions
The following i» the full text of the
resolutions:
Believing that the constitution of the
Usited States contemplated a govern
ment to be carried on by an enlight
l ened people, believing that its framers
! did not anticipate the enfranchisement
jof an Ignorant population of African
| origin, ami believing that those men of
! the state of North Carolina, who Joined
! in forming the Union, did not contem
; plate for their descendants a subjec
tion to an inferior race,
We, the undersigned citizens of the
rity of Wilmington and county of
j New Hanover, do hereby declare that
,we will no longer be ruled, and will
never again be ruled by men of Afri
can origin. This condition we have In
part endured because we felt that the
consequences of the war of secession
were such as to deprive us of the fair
consideration of many of our country
men.
We believe that, after more than 30
years, this is no longer the case.
The stand we n«w pledge ourselves to
ts forced upon suddenly by a crisis
and our eyes are -open to the fact that
We must act novw leave our descend
ants to a fate too gloomy to be borne.
While we recognize the authority of
the United States,, and will yield to It,
if exerted, we would not for a moment
believe that it tsdhe purpose 0 £ more

dralre for harnomy and |>eace. Winded
I noth to our test Intrrevts attd our
rights A climax tea# readied when the
negro paper of thta city published an 1
article so vile and slanderous that it
would, in meat communities, have re
sulted in Ihe lynching of the editor. We ■
deprecate lynching, and yet there is no
punishment provided h>* the laws
adequate for the offense. We, there
fore. owe It to the people of this com
munity and of this city, as a protection
against such license in future, that
the paper known as the Record cease to i
Ik- published and that its editor he ;
banished from this community.
We demand that he leave this city
within ’.‘l hours after the issuance of
this proclamation Weootid, that the :
printing press from which Ihe Record j
has lieen issued he packed and shipped |
from Ihe city without delay, that p he |
I notified within 12 hour# of the accept- |
iunce or rejection of this demand
j If the demand is agreed to. within 12 :
' hours we counsel forbearance on Ihe j
[part of all while men. If the demand la
refused or if no answer is given w ithin j
the time mentioned, then die editor, ,
Manly, will be expelled by force.
it Is the sense of this meeting that
Mayor S. P. Wright and Chief of Po
lite J. R. Mullen, having demonstrated |
their utter Incapacity to give the city a
decent government and keep order .
theieln, their continuance in office lie- j
ing a constant menace to the oeaee of
thla community, ought forthwith to re
sign.
The meeting nt which these resolu
tion* were passed was presided over by
Col. A. M. Waddell, and 800 or 1.000
people were present. A great throng
was unable to get Into the- auditor
ium. F/nthuslastlc speeches were made
by many leading cltlsens, among
whom were Col. Waddell. Hon. Jno. P.
Bellamy, Junius Davis, Esq., and Geo.
Roundtree, Esq.
Attempted urglary.
Last night about eleven o)clock a
burglar attempted to enter Ihe home
of Mrs. Edgar Hubert at 333 Telfair
street.
Mrs. Hubert was only with her four
children, but her cries attracted n

j burglar escaped and there is no clue.
