There are thirteen churches, two graded schools and one large Female College; also a Seminary for the education of colored teachers. The people are noted for the interest which they manifest. in education, and in schools. A graded school building has recently been erected at a cost of $12,000.


The town is lighted with electricity and gas, and water works have been constructed. An appropriation of $100,000 has been made to provide a system of sewerage and to pave the streets and sidewalks. The United States has erected a beautiful Post Office and Court building at a cost of $70,000, and the county court house is one of the finest public edifices in North Carolina. There are here two of the largest and best kept hotels in the State.

APPENDIX.


There is one National Bank with a capital stock of $100,- 000, with a surplus of $33,000 and undivided profits of $10,000. It carries deposits which average about $300,000. There is also a Five Cents Savings Bank recently organized under the laws of the State. There are here also the Bank of Guilford and the Pied- mont Bank. There are upwards of one hundred business houses, in addition to foundries, machine shops, large tobacco factories, knitting mills, cotton mills, lumber mills, sash and blinds, spoke and handle factories, etc., all of which do an annual business of about $12,000,000. There is no better opening for wholesale and jobbing houses.


INCREASE OF POPULATION AND BUSINESS.


During the past five years Greensboro has doubled in population and its business has been increased five-fold. The advance is grad- ual and substantial. No effort has been made to stimulate growth beyond the usual exertions in legitimate business. The territory . tributary to Greensboro is such as to guarantee extensive trade and traffic, and the attractions of this city to people seeking op- portunities to enter into any kind of business, particularly man- ufacturing, are very great. The large deposits of coal and iron, with an abundance of lime in Stokes county, 40 miles away; and the forests of superb timber of all kinds within easy reach, ought to be a great inducement to capitalists seeking such investments. Here is a good location for furniture factories, foundries, machine shops, wagon factories, manufactories of agricultural implements, cotton factories, tobacco factories, fruit and vegetable canneries.


In the country surrounding Greensboro, can be bought at rea- sonable figures, farms which are susceptible of good cultivation. All kinds of grain and fruits and grasses will repay the indust- rious farmer, and a good market is at hand for any surplus. The country hereabouts is well adapted to stock raising, and the dairy is always profitable. Great quantities of poultry and eggs are shipped from this point.


There is no part of the State or of the South that affords greater opportunities to secure comfortable homes and good returns for farm labor, than that around Greensboro; and no town which promises a better future for capital and skilled labor.


HISTORICAL INTEREST.


The most notable battle fought in the Southern States during the revolutionary war, took place at Guilford Court House, March 15, 1781, four miles from where Greensboro now stands. Gen. Greene decided the fate of American Independence on this ground.


Greensboro was named in honor of Gen. Greene, and her citizens are doing a patriotic work in reviving national interest in the bat- tle which covered that great General with imperishable glory.
