Cape May, N.J., June 17.--Henry C. White, the last negro to sit in congress, the member from North Carolina in both the 55th and 56th congresses, is the head of a syndicate which has purchased from Senator Robert E. Hand 967 ½ acres at Buriegh, near the Pennsylvania and Reading railroads to found a negro colony from North Carolina. The name of the town is to be Whiteboro. 

Each colonist is to buy a house on the installment plan and is to be given ten years to pay for it. This is to be an agricultural colony, and on the same plan as the Jewish colony at Woodbine, this county, founded by tho Baron de Hirsch fund.
