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.

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 than sixty millions of our own race to I. tiiwta— Ip mn W# M •Mcb •* AMgkadMMta haa w— mm Wm IWlitau i..M.*»aa lba< *ew *— ataiiqot* ' I nW» th aanlltaew* of the a hue gi* •# th** i maiy and it a f •—* ii i.a * mm m utaA tmgtauta *"* y. .. wmw * rvtT th*. the it— ban in— I hr Ibe tatetaMtant rlttaana «f Ibta comma •lff.

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.
