Suedliche Post

by H. G. Jones, 2006

The Suedliche Post (Southern Post) was a short-lived German-language newspaper founded in Goldsboro [2] in 1869 by August Heinrich Christian Julius Bonitz [3] (who usually signed his name Julius A. Bonitz). The newspaper sought to benefit the substantial number of German-speaking residents in the area. Bonitz, a native of Clausthal-Zellerfeld, Germany [4], had settled in Goldsboro, where he published the successful English-language papers Daily Rough Notes [5] and the Messenger [6], both stoutly "advocating the supremacy of the white race." In addition, he was agent for the Carolina Immigration Association [7], which encouraged foreigners to buy land in North Carolina; the Die Suedliche Post was its "adopted organ." Only three issues of the paper are known to be preserved; the last (number 9) was dated 27 Nov. 1869.
