manufacturer, artisan and inventor, as the common stock of
a common brotherhood of workers.

annoyance may be avoided by compliance with this regula-tion.
XIV. Entries may be made in person or by letter. In
making entries it will be necessary to give the name of the

been entered for a premium, it cannot be removed until the
close of the Fair without permission from the Secretary or the
Supervisor in charge of the Department ; and if any person
removes an article or animal without such permission, he for-feits
all claims to a premium, even if the same may have been
awarded.

THE ISLAND BEACH HOTEL.
The Coast of North Carolina, from near the head of Curri-tuck
Sound on the Northeastern boundary of the State, to the
mouth of the Cape Fear river at the Soritheastern extremity,
is fringed with a line of sandy barriers, of from a few hun-dred
yards to half a mile in width. On the one side the ocean
beats its thunderous surge in time of storm ; more often it
washes the shore in measured stroke, as calm outside the line
of surf, which never suspends its ceaseless roll, as the placid
sheet of water which spreads itself between the banks and the
low shores of the mainland beyond. These banks are wholly
composed of pure sand, white as the driven snow, and like
the snow, have been tossed by the winds into heaps and drifts,
an illusive wintry landscape, but wrought into natural har-mony
by the verdant patches of the sea rushes and the beau-tiful
oat grass which nestles in the hollows between the mimic
hillocks, or catch a stubborn foothold upon their tiny sum-mits.
Sometimes the myrtle spreads its fragrant thickets,
and here and there a group of sturdy live oaks maintain a tri-umphant
contest with the barren soil, or hold defiant head
against the fury of the ocean winds.
The whole scene presents a picture of unique and fascina-ting
beaut}-, the boundless sea beyond, sometimes "with tem-pest
tossed," more often spread out smooth as a "summer
sea;" the snowy banks like waves congealed when in their
liveliest motion, the crests or patches of verdure which con-trast
with the dazzling whiteness of the sand ; the still, un-ruffled
waters of the sound, flecked here and there with islets
hidden awav under the vived <rreen of the marsh grass ; and

ISLAND BEACH HOTEL. 79
then beyond the forest-skirted shores of the mainland, make-up
a scene as novel as it is entrancingly beautiful.
These banks are cut through at frequent intervals by nar-row,
navigable "inlets" from the ocean, making a series of
islands strung like pearls along the North Carolina coast.
On one of these islets, conspicuous from its group or grove
of live oaks, which stand contrasted against the sea and sky
in picturesque relief, is the Island Beach Hotel. Really, it is
not on one of the banks islands, being separated from the
banks by the "sound," which here flows in a narrow channel
with a clear, emeral Is tream, with strong lively current, va-rying
with each turn of the tide, and filled with fish which may
be seen at all hours from the bridge wbicb spans the channel,
breasting the stream without apparent motion, and strongly
exciting tbe piscatory instinct.
On one of these islands, between the broad rusb-vcrdured
waters of the inner Wrightsville sound, and the narrower
channel referred to, stands
THE isi. \xn BEACH hot:; i.,
with its grounds partially shaded by the grove of live oaks,
which afford a pretty natural park ; the rest looking upon tbe
world of waters around in unobstructed view.
This hotel, constructed with reference to all the points of
comfort, convenience and luxury, is such a house as one-would
expect to meet amid such surroundings, broad, lofty
halls or passages, wide airy verandas encircling every floor,
large pleasant rooms with free access of air, and boundless
outlook of view, a table supplied with all the delicacies of the
land and water, most profusely in those of the latter, wdrich
contributes its fish, its oysters and clams, its crabs and its
shrimp, its turtle and its terrapin.
On the laud the visitor amuses himself with rambles, hunt-ing,
or with games; on the water with the finest surf bathing
to he bad on the coast, in sailing or in fishing.

them.

by a railroad, over which trains pass every half an
hour, and connecting directly with all the routes of travel.
At Wrightsville the North Carolina State Guard has its
Encampment, and here annually is the practice and review
of all the companies of the State. The United Stat'
here also established a coast battery, and these featuri

hotel is the central Ik
On all the Atlantic coast there is found no finer resort, no
finer nor safer surf bathing, no better sailing, no finer fishing,
with no better hotel, with no easier access ; no place where
the "sea side resort" so amply meets and fills all wishes and
expectations.
This hotel is now under the popular management of one of
of the most genial hotel proprietors South, Mr. Will Hunter.

SOUTHERN EXPOSITION
AT RALEIGH, X. C, OCTOBER 1ST TO DECEMBER
1ST, 1 89 1.
The Exposition of Southern products and industries is no
new or novel undertaking, since the one held in Atlanta in
1881, and that subsequently at New Orleans, not to speak of
that at Boston in which the South was conspicuously repre-sented,
and amply demonstrated what a store of treasures in
natural and created wealth the South possesses, if the touch-stone
of local pride and united interest be applied to evolve
them.
It is to renew the impressions made by the former Imposi-tions
referred to, to enlarge the sphere of beneficent influence,
to give still further proof of Southern advancement and the
growing development of long latent resources, and again to in-vite
our Northern brethren to the ample participation in all
that so greatly blesses us, that the Exposition at Raleigh is to
open its doors and invite all, from all our sections, to enter
freely therein.
This is to be done under the auspices of the Southern Inter-
State Immigration Bureau; and that Bureau owes its being to
the Southern Inter-State Immigration Convention, held in
Montgomery, Ala., on December 12th, 18SS, confirmed by a
similar convention held in Asheville, beginning December
17th, 1980.
These Conventions, both of them, were indorsed by the
highest authority in the several States represented therein :
by the Chief Executives, by Municipalities, by Boards of
I. WINKTROB.

Trade, by Railroad authorities, and also by the respective
State Commissioners of Immigration, acquiring a sanction of
most imposing and authoritative form. Moreover, State Leg-islation
freely lent its aid to confirm and strengthen all that
had been done ; and in so doing recognized the work the
Southern Inter-State Immigration Bureau had undertaken as
the most comprehensive, intelligent, and effective agency the
South could employ to increase its population, add to its cap-ital
and develop its resources. For the South found itself in
possession of vast territory which it was not filling with its
own population; of vast stores of mineral wealth which it had
not the experience, if it had possessed the capital, to develop.
It had abundant water power which was not fully utilized ; it
had railroads which were not overburdened with freight ; it
had sea-ports which were not crowded with shipping.
While the South not only extends this welcome to the
North, and urges its acceptance, it is not umindful that it
has a duty to itself to perform ; recalled and inforced by the
coming, as well as by the preceding Expositions, It has been
reproached for its indolence, censured for its want of sagacity,
and ridiculed for its insensibility to its good fortune. The
South is to prove that it was neither indolence, stupidity, nor
insensibility that kept her in the back ground. Before the
war her energies were applied to the great advantage of the
whole civilized world. After the war, conditions were
changed, ruin was upon her, and poverty for a time pressed
upon all her energies. The South will prove in these Expo-sitions
how much of her ill fortune she has retrieved through
her own energy and intelligence, how readily and successfully
she fell into new channels, how sagaciously and prosperously
she applied her new resources. And the Exposition will give
confidence to the steps she is newly treading, and strengthen
her to farther and more magnificent efforts.

There is one more instructive lesson to be given to the un-thinking
and uninformed world. The negro, the once igno-rant
slave, stands to-day in most Northern minds an object
of pity ; the needless cause of bitter sectional exacerbation.
The Exposition will give proof that the negro is no longer in
tutelage ; that he stands in no need of federal bayonets for
protection; that he is no longer dependent upon government
rations; but that he is a free, industrious, self-respecting citi-zen.
And the very fact that he stands side b}- sid-e with the
white man, the equal competitor for industrial honors, acquits
the whites of the South emphatically and forever of the
charges so strenuously urged, of injustice, oppression and
cruelty; for the oppressed could never have competed suc-cessfully
in industry with the oppressor, and the injured
would never have presented himself in friendly rivalry with
his tormentor. The Colored Exhibit will be entirely under
the control of the colored people of the South, and in sepa-rate
buildings.
The Exposition will be opened October 1st to December iat,
and excursions run from every section of the civilized world,
and it will be advertised as no Exposition has been advertised
heretofore.

State Immigration Bureau or the Exposition, address J. T.
