Two plans have\tren siggested’ during the past year~one in the -Raleigh Observer carly in the Sum mer and one in the Chatham ubout » mouth ago—either of which would be fair, and in atriet compliance with the apportionment act of Congress in regard to population and contiguous- ness of territory, Whether the question of couuty government will be agitated or whether the result of the election will be taken as an expression ef the wishes of the people against such agitation, we do not know bat we hope that until there is stronger demand for a change than there has been, the present system of county government will be continued, The establisnment of a Railroad Com- mission, will, deubless, be another im- portant matter for consideration, and, if it is determined that there shall be one, the Commissioners will doubtless be elected by the Legislatare. Other railroad matters, including what may be done about the extension of the Midland, and the State's interest in the A. & N.C., will also demand attention. One subject which ought to receive careful cosideration, and to be perma- nently settled is the law in regard to conve, ances. We shall have something ito say about this matter hereafter, We suppose it would be expecting too mach to hope for a law to pretect sheep husbandry but it is needed badly enough to justify prompt action on the subject. These are ‘among the more important matiers that will probably receive at- tention atthe hands of the legislature, but there are many others to which we have made ne allusion, and which are of equal importance to the people. The Governor's message will probably desig— nate most if not all of them and we hope to see the Legislature go to work prompt- ly and dispose of them in sucha way that all the people cam say, ‘‘well done, good and faithful servants.”—Charlotte Journal. ————_~-a- Washington in Danger, this time from indignant tax-payers.

We watch with interest. Wasaineton, Jan. 1.—The weather to-day wae clear, bright and spring-like. The great event of the day was the Pres- ident’s reception. The Executive Man- sion which has just been thoroughly re- pajuted, decorated and newly upholister- ed and furnished, presented a handsome appearauege, The floral decorations were plain byt elegant, The Marine Band was stationed in the vestibule and played several airs daring the reception. The President and party ateod in the blue parlor and the presentations wors made by Marehal McMichael and Col. Rock well The President was assisted by the wives of several members of the Cabjvet and a number of other jadieg, At 1] e'slock the members of the Cabjnet aud diploma- tic corps and the dress of the Chinese ro- ceived much attention. At 11.15 Chief Justice and Associate Justices of the Sn— preme Court of the United arrived, and were fgllowed at 11.30 by Senators and Representatives in Congress, Judges of the Supreme Conrt of the District of Col- umbig, &c. At 12 o’clock officers of the Army and Navy, in full drees goiform, filed in, headed by General Sherman and Admiral Porter, and were each in turn presented to the Preeident, At 12.30 a number of officials of various departments were received. Up to this time the pro- gramme laid down bad been followed, aad the President and all in the building were in the best of spirits, when an event eccurred which at once changed the whole spirit of the scene, Hen, Elisha Allen, Minister of Hawaiian Islands, oldest member of the diplematic corps, whe-had remained short time after being pre= sented to the President, had retired to the cloak reom in company with his son aod was chatting pleasantly with a num- her of gentlemegn, when saddenly bis bead fell bapk ang he became speechless. Sargeon-General Crane and several other Army and Navy Surgeons, who were in attendance at the President's reception gave Mr. Allen prompt atteation, but -he died in a few minutes. The canse of his death was augina pectoris. Word was conveyed to the President, who at once sfopped the reception. The band was 3i Jeuges and the White House closcd.

Bosrow, Dec. 31.—Elizabeth Lambert, “sri 30 ald, who lives in Nort Cami, inn st ' with of the spine and other ailments for seventeen years, and fur the past seven had been confined to her bed, anable to walk, even with the aid of her crutch, She employ-, ed the best medical skill, until, about two yeare ago, she became discouraged and diemiseed all her physicians, and has lived hopelessly on in great pain, unable to rise from her bed. A short time ago, aceording to the story told by herself and her relatives, a friend seut her a newspa- per account of an alleged prayer cure, in whieh it was related that the patient was restored to health while a number of clergymen were praying around her bed. This so impressed her that she determin- ed to pray, Accordingly, while she was alone, she prayed ferveutly that she might be restored to health, and, to ber surprise aud delight, she was soon able to rise from her bed. She went to the door, call- ed her mother, and teld her story. Since then she has beeu able to go about the honse and up ind down stairs every day, and has been «i: tirely free from pain.— Within a few days, however, she met with a fall, which, while not preventing her from walking, has rendered ber lame, so that she walks with a slight limp. All of her frieuds believe that her recovery is directly dae to Divine intervention in her behalf in answer te prayer. LL Rattlesnake Versus BLACKSNAKE.— On the other side of the Sunta Fe water tanks yesterday a fight occarred between ® rattlesuake and a blacksnake, The rattlesnake was apparently on a journey and the meeting was quite accidental. At first the rattlesnake soaght to avoid a difficulty, bat when the blacksnake press- ed the matter he halted and folded his length inte acoil. The blacksnake glid- ed round in increasingly swift circles; the rattlesnake never changed its posi- tion—enly, his head went round fvllow- ing the swift movements of his foe. But the circle still diminished its size, and as the blacksnake drew close the rattlesnake appeared to get confused. His rattles ceased to give out the sharp sound, aud his head drooped as if vertigo was seizing him. The blacksnake seized, by a light- ving movemeut, the rattler by the throat and, winding him up in folds the two rolied over aud over together, and io a few moments the rattlesnake ceased to breathe. An examination of the dead body of the rattleanake revealed a frac- ture in the spine as complete as if done by a blow with aclub. The rattlesnake measured, dead, five feet and three inches. — Fort Worth Democrat. ~~. ___ How a Danisu Jupee Cuecxep Per- JuryY.—A Danish Colonial Magistrate for whose exceptionial character and ability we can vouch, once made a grimly comic experience in this direction and upon this principle: He was appalled by the endless perjaries committed in cases be- fore him, determined to stop them, and method, bat an English friend, seated by him on the bench, noticed that when- ever a witness told a palpable lie he jumped. He asked the reason, and the magistrate, after a caution, revealed his secret. ‘‘My orderly stands behind the witness, and whenever I put my left band to my ear that indicates that the evidence is false, and he runs a pin into him.” Itis a well knows fact to the many who will recognize thie story that the “sting of conscience” in this material form proved effectual, and that the mag- istrate who died heovored throughout Devmark, iv three years turned all Alsa— tia into one of the most orderly and law- abiding of communitics. He could al- ways get the tryth. ee ee A Davy Crockett ix Petricoats.—A correspondent writing from Kingston, New Mexico, says; ‘'Here, also, lives a woman of some thirty-five or forty sum- mers, who is a wonder. Sho has just completed a log cabin and done all the work herself except putting up the last logs. She cat the logs, hauled them, and made the shingles to cover it.

She basa husband and he takes care of the children. (Geod boy:) eo er The expression “white as snow” is pot strictly aceurate, for there is such a thing as red snow.

Mr. Editor :—In arecent number of the New South I saw an article from T. K. Bruner of Salisbury giving a catalogue of some minerals seut you by him. La speak- ing of the gold bearing salphurets of the State he suggests that there bas pot y been found a method safficiently economi- cal for their successful and profitable treatment. While Ido not pro to solve the problem and give a for the treatment of these low grade ores | desire to offer a suggestion which, under given conditious, may be worthy of same thought. At least there can be@o barm in the suggestion. If the gold in auch sulpharets as Mr. Braver mentions occars iv ite native state and is only mechani- eally mixed with the sulphurcts of iron and copper,and itis not mineralized,that is does not occur as a sulpburet of gold then it seems to me but reasonable that the ores might be manipulated in the maua- factare of sulpuric acid. This would desulphurize them and prepare them for the culleetion of the free geld that might be present by the amalgamating process. ‘The sulpharic acid —. certainly to de- fray every expense and,Jeave the geld and copper as clear profit. But I believe the sulphuric acid would yield some profit itself, especially siuce you have fortilizer works iu your city. This you see would cheapen the procurement of the gold and copper. If a portion of thegoldshould pass with the copper the value of the pig could readily be ascertained by chemical analy - sis and a market, so doubt found for it. If any of the sulphurets, referred to by Mr. Bruner, are sufficiently pure, that is, comparatively free from extraneous mat- ter, to justify handling for the sulpbaric acid they may be capable of yielding, theu 1 weuld be glad to see this process tried io their treatment for the profitable collection of gold. 1am not a practical gold miner, have vever attempted to handle gold beariug salphurets but it ap- pears to me that in practical and seleotific hands sume goud might possibly come of a@ proper experiment in this process. throw out the suggeation and shoald it prove to be chimerical and auworthy of serious thought, it will atleast do to talk about.— C. D. Smita, FRANKLIN, N. C. Dec. 26th 1822. in New South, Wilmington. The suggestions in the foregoing letter from Prof.C. D. Smith, are worthy of thought. The practical miner may by experiments determive ina short time the value of the saggestion. Prof. Smith overlooked the statement in tho Jetter re- ferred tv,.that ‘This is cuused by the re- fractory coudition of the u ndecomposed vein matter, the gold beiug in chemical combination with sualphurets,” &c. A large per cent of the gold which is me- chavically mixed with sulphurets may be saved by careful treatment with sim- ple amalgamating plates, to which may be added concentrating blankets. These blankets placed just beneath copper plates catch what fine gold escapes. It is of course, necessary to have the very best pulverizing macivery, as the free gold occurring in sulpburets is fine grained and light and is carried off by the weight of the sulphurets, hence the necessity of eonceatrating blankets. The salphurets of Rowan and Cabarrus counties are suf- ficiently pure to test this process, er manipulation in the manufacture of sul- phuric acid and subsequent collection of the precious metal. The ores trom the “Reimer,” “Ballivu,” or ‘Reudlewan” in this county, or the “*Phauix,” ‘Tuck- er” or “Quaker City” in Cabarras would fournish material which would effectu- ally test the practicability of Prof. Smith's suggestion. —— The following letter from Mr. R. Eames Jr., is so much like bim, that it is pub- lished fgr the benefit of his numerous triends, who will doubtless read it with pleasure. San PEDRO, (not Sanco Pedro) Rep. Honduraa, Cen. Am. Dec. I1th, ’82. My Dear Thos. K.—I sailed frow N. Yi: on Nov. 18th, and arrived at Puerto Cor- tez on Dec. 2nd. On the seventh day out we were some 20 or 30 miles off the coast of Cuba, could see the mountains very plainly which are some 5000 feet high and look very grand from the Ocean. At For- tune Island we took ou fifteen negroes as laborers. Not like the oves you bave io N.C., by any means. Long, lank, wild looking men—half civilized and less thao half dressed. They are treated aboat the game as slaves. I saw some of them div- ing fer sponge and it was remarkable how long they could stay uvder water. On the 18th (the same day I left N. Y.) one of the natives went down and came ap on the twenty-fourth with a cotten basket full. He wanted to sell it to me, but I concluded from the looks of the uatives that it was not fashionable to bathe with a sponge, so did mot buy. Joke, hey ? When about two hundred miles off the coast of N.C. we had quite asterm. | hope neyer to realize avother such; al- though we were ip no danger, 9a nothing happened tothe ship. But how she did jump! racks on the table did no good— dishes went all over. I suppose you wen- der whether J was sick or not? well yes, just wlittle, It euly lasted about 36 hoars. I wish 1 could describe the feeling to you, bat cannot. | felt like the may who was one minute afraid that he woald die, and the next, afraid that be would not. On the 26th, one of the negro laborers died, and was buried at sea. Just think of it Tom, we all went “black berryiug” on the briny deep, and in November too. We arrived in*Belize on the 28th.

We arrived at « place called Choloma at 11:30'p. m., and pet ap ata mad cabin, and sleptin a hammock for the night. We ran 27 miles in 134 hours, t times to fix the en the track and put mu so that it would not Jeak the fires eat. From Choloma to this place we traveled on mules, aud here I aus at this wiserable Hotel. wish you could see it and the proprietor, “Sub” as he is called. He is a nice hest and atall times wo knock down and drag out all who do not behave to suit his whims—a typical man of the country.

The soil is wonderful , and if the climate was ovly healthy, it would be the garden apot of the world. Notwithstandiag the bad climate, there are mauy good things to eat, but bere again there is treuble ; with what yon eat, you must also partake of quinine asa salt. Whew! just imag- ine it! I am sure this is a goud mining country, although I have not yet seen anything of the mines. The indications are ,te¢ wining lies, mining experts and fights. ] have been thinking ‘that if the mines proved no good, I would go into the sheep raising business. On enquiry have found that it requires from 30 to 40 oun- ces of quinine per sheep, per annum, to keep them alive. Quinine is worth $8 per eunce. So it does not figare like a N.C. sheep farm. Perhaps [ will start a “Nup- tial Asseciation”—it migth take with these people who do ne calculating. I am delayed here waiting for machin- ery to come on, and for the railroad track above here to be repaired. It has not been used fer some time, and is fast going to decay—the only “fast going” thing in the country.

This is from ove who disa proves and even carried a feeble voice iv protest, against the practice of masque- rados, remembering bow, 25 or 30 years ago the custom was so abused as to make it necessary in some Cities to Legislate against it, but the youth of Salisbury would not believe, because it could not see that it could lead to evil. Aud even this old knowing one could not see that it would lead to gross insult frem one of Salisbury’s own citizens (if it is a citizen) aud the publishing of that insult ina neighboring city, or that the pages of the Charlotte Observer would censent to be soiled by anything 80 foul—so vulgar. Such evilsas a man being clothed in wo- mans garb and imposing on the unsus- pecting is mortification enough ; even to these who feared it might come to that.

The interest iu home-made manvures is rapidly increasing. A host of farmers tried the formulas recommenvded |ast year, aud in spite of the bad season, they re- port very satifactory results. Using such materials as were found on the farm and supplementing them with such chemicals as ceuld be obtained nawmerous different wixtnres have been tried. The aim of all, however, was te apply about 25 ibe. phosphorte acid, ten to twelve poands of nitrogen avd twelve to fifteeu pounds of jotash to the acre. Let me present here jast one general and one special case, by wayeof illustration : Every cotton farmer has cotton seed and stable manure, and every one 18 able to get some dissolved bupe or dissel ved §. C. phosphate and a potash salt. A mix tare like the following was tried by a great many farmers last year ; 800 Ibs. Acid Phosphate, about $10.00 100 do. Muriate of potash, do. 2.50 | 600 do. or aboat 20 bushels — — 500 do, atable manure, Making a ton of 2,000 lbs., costing, not counting the home material aud laber, $12.50. One farmer who applied 300 pounds of this per acre writes; “I am wonderfully pleased with the results. I made, ia apite of the drought, 850 lbs. of seed cotton on laud that made last year 700 Ibs. per acre, highly manared with a commercial fertil- izer. Lhad a tenant whose crep joined nine (land equally as good) who ased the _ Gaavo and made about 500 IDs per acre. My eapericuce is that it is equally as good for corn as for cotten.” Many farmers 100 pounds sal- hate of ammonia to similar mixtures. This was necessary on some svils when stuble mauare and cotton seed were in- apflicient. But no farmer ought ever to have to buy all or even a part of his pitrogen, It is now the costly ingredient of gommercial fertilizer + and it is destin- ed to get dearer every year unless farmers oS , we | versi results it produces the first year the farmer to apply it — and a But these good results will prove ensnar- ing, if it is continued too long. It must be remembered that it su only a single element of plant , or countia the and seda as directly useful, only some subordinate elements at best. These are stimulating apd exhaustive of the soil when used alone, us explained. Whiskey may make a man strong for an hear or 80, but its continual use, to pro- duce this effect, will kill bim. I fiud exactly the same objection to the use of lime alone upen cotton lands, aud for a siwilar reason. Liwe is usually ac- coanted among the glements of plant food, but its primary action upon the soil is like that of common salt—digestive. It hastens the breaking up of organic matter especially and turns over its plant food to new plants. Hence its value upon new and upen peaty, sour low lands. But it is eminently desirable to rve the organic matter in the soil ta improve its mechanical condition and as a basis of fertility to retain ammonia sa)ts and mois- ture in the seil. Our light sandy lands are agually already deficient in organic matter. It is a puicedal policy, which vurns up all they do contain with lime in order to produce one crop. The contina- al use of any siugle compound ry soils is questiovuable. But the use of lime and potash alone are especially so for the rea- sons stated. The special case whieh 1 wish to cite shows how these things may be rightly used. When a heavy application of or- gauic matter, like cottua seed, stable manures, or even straw, leaves, mack, &c., can be made, this ebjectivn to lime is re- moved, of course, here immediate re- sults are desired from sach application the use of lime and salt becomes advisa- ble. Here isa case in point. A very successful farmer in an eastern county writes me aa follows: ‘I took a piece of land that, in its natural state, was too poor to produces cotton and put apen the acre the following manures: 100 cart loads of muck, 15 bushels cotton seed, 100 pounds of salt, 100 do of Kainite, 200 do of Lime. The reault was, I made about 1,000 Ibs. of seed cotton. It grew as high as my shoniders, Where there was so magsure it did not grow higher than my band. I am sure it was cut off at least one-third by the drought.” The lime and salt sup- lied the large amout of food contained in the vegetable matter rapidly to the growing plauts. The geotieman thinks the common salt may be omitted, as there is enough in the Kainite, and that the upplication would be improved by the addition of 100 lbs. of acid phosphate per acre to supply the first demands of the plant, before the organic matter is de- com . This would certainly be very eed nas atiag. C. W. Dasner, Jr., Director. Senator Rawxsom Ovursipe or His Sratk.--United States Senator Ransom is warmly endorsed for re-election by the leading Democratic paper of North Caro- lina. ‘The general sentiment of the press seems to be voiced when it says that “while there are many gentlemen in the Democratic party of the State who with experience would grace the position, we kpow of sone who weald fill it better than or as well as Hon. M. W.

In the name of the majority ef the workers we say —decidedly it is not. And why? We anewer briefly: Because the men whe do the work and produce the wealth of this and every oth- er conntry do not secure for their own comfort aud good the wealth which their work produces. Let us see how this is 80. The census tables ef 1870 showed that the real workers of the country thea pre- daced wealth to the amount ef about $300 for each pair of hands. The cengus tables of 1880 show that the average wages paid to all anical and mill hands was ouly per year; aud the wages of farm-workers in 1870 wae still less. Probably an average wage of $300 per year for all our workers is not far from the mark. What becomes of the balance of the workers’ production, amounting to $500 each f 7 Our ignorant avd conscienceless tax- spenders at Washington take some $300, - 000,000 a year; oar ignorant and coa- ecienceless legislators fur States, coun- ties, cities, &c., take twice as much more; whieh they spend regardless of the workers who make aud pay the taxes. Oar Railroad and other monopolists and speculators take the balance; and that Balance seems to collect in. the hands of vur plandering Barons, like the Gonlds, Fields, Vanderbitts, Rockfelders, Mill's, Spreckels, Huntingtons, Smiths, Tildens, &e., &c.,—millions upon millions, so that no man can now namber them.

The distillers held a quiet meeting last week in Cincinnati and agreed to keep their production down to 40 per cent. of their capacity instead of 35 per cent. as decided six weeks ago. For the purpose of aiding expert, each distillery which continues running agrees to pay four cents a bushel on the mash used, which is expected to aggregate $3,500 to $4,000 a day, aud is to be used in paying a bonus ta distillers who export their spirits. Over $700,000 is said to have been ex- pended in these bonuses last year nearly as much will be spent this year—a sig- nificant proof of the over-preduction which has glutted the home market. An old woman in St. Louis saved $1,- 100 out of the hard earnings of 30 years, and the other night lost the money Tu the street. The newspapers described her pitable grief, for she was completely prostrated by the loss, and when she read one of thesefaccoants she felt still worse, for she said she did not want the the whole world to kuow her trouble.

Since Sanday morning, the 3lvt ult., says the Coucerd Register, there has been a niatter of unusual curiosi- ty attracting the commonwealth of this town. On that morning an offi- cer from Ohio, armed with an order from Gov. Jarvis, issued on a requi- sition frusa-the Governor of Odie, ur- rested Mr. Morris Summerfield, an assdciate in the firm of H. Danrten- berg & Co., doing a mercantile busi- ners in this town, on charge of breach of promise of marriage with a+ Miss Goldstandt, of Obio, and also of ob- taining money ($1200) auder false pretences from an aunt of Miss Gold- standt.

Mr. Summerfield’s lawyer, C. Lowenstein, aq, says that Sum- merfield is a cousin of Miss Gold- standt, through the invitation of rel- ati¥es, visited Golumbag last August, suw Miss Goldstandt, wis attracted, by her appearance, proposed marriage und was.accepted, Mr, Summerfield found that au elder sister of his be- trothed was the wife of a Chinaman, and being incensed that the fanvily should recognize so low a connection declared the match between himself and Miss Goldstandt off, bevee the suit for breach of promise. ‘The grant jury found an indictment against Mr. Summertiekl, for obtaining $120) from Miss Goldstandt’s annt, which charge is denied by the defendant, Mr. Summerfield was held tw $1200 bail.

Journal. rr ee Wages Under a High Tarif. ~— Wilmington Siar, The New York Herald has beeu throw- ing light upon a subject made dark by the reiterated assertious of the protec- tionists. They have claimed all that a high tariff made high wages, This was the delusive ery iu 5880, aud this was what defeated Gen. Haucuck. Even the millions of money expended in cer- rapting the voters would nut ‘have ab- swered if there had been ne alarw creat- ed that their wages were imperilled by the Democratic ery of a tariff for revenue, The Herald has been comparing the census of 1870 and 1880, and with some annoying and startling results to the in- terested monopolists. It was shown most couclusively that wages are lowest where the tariff is highest. This fact, for such it is, has been known for a long time, and many writers on the side of low tar- iff or free trade have insisted upon the correctueas of the statement. Bat it re- maiued for the publication of the last census to make good all that had been claimed by the: anti- protectionists auti-bigh tariff advocates. The Herald goes into New England for its proof, It shows that iu that rich sec- tion so mach favored by the high tariff that “the wages of operatives are 24 per cent, less than the general average of Wages throughout the country, which is itself 8 per cent. less than it was three years ago.” This will surprise that large clase of operatives whose fears have been se often worked upon by designing mill- owners and selfish monopolists.

Having alluded te jute culture as the introduction of anew industry into the South, and to the recent invention of machinery adapted to the preparation of jute for market, for the farther infor mation of our planters ov these interest- ing subjects we copy from the Vicksburg (Miss) Southern Planter : ‘Professor Waterhouse, of Washingten University, St. Louis, and Daniel Den- nett, a most well informed and practical gentleman, and withal one of the most accomplished writers on agricultural sab- jects that we know of in the South, have proneunced the new jate machine, in- vented by Mr. T. Albee Smith, of St. Louis, a suecess. If these gentlemen be correct in their judgment, the stumbling block that has heretofore stvod in the way of profitable jute culture in the cot- ton States may be considered as virtually removed.” “The New Orleans Picayune, in a timely editerial based upon Col. Den- nett’s report of experiments made with this machine upon jute growing inp the field at the Menelas plantation, near Brookhaven, Misa, says: ‘‘So effectually did the machine do its work that Mr. Smith, the patentee who was present to test its operations, declared that it woald prepare jute fibre for market at a total cost for production and separation of 2 to 24 cents per pound, while the imported article is selling iu the markets of this country at 4 to 44 cents a pound, an un- usually low price by the way, but one, nevertheless, which will pay a handsome profit to the American producers. “There will be a twofold profit te the planting class from jute cultare ; first to all who are consumers of bagging ; second, to the growers of the jute itself. Taking the above figures, and supposing evough to be grown to sapply only the home demzn 1, the country will be gaiver by nearly two milliops of dollars annually which will be divided between producera and consumers, and many of the formes will reap a double share of prfit. But we ought not. fora mement to think of stopping our jute crops at the point of home supply. We should in the near future, and doubtless we will, in time, supply the demand of all the world this side of India. From an article in the Jackson Comet, that we are prevented from priuting in full by lack of space alone, we quote as follews: Jute can be more easily cultivated than cotton, while the profits per acre are about twice as much. The seed can be planted io April, and during the lat- ter portion of June the plant begins to blossom and is ready for the machine. Mr. Menelas has planted this year about 12 acres, which will yield about 2,000 pounds per acre, and is worth 4 cents in market now, making eighty del- lars per acre, or the value of 2 bales of cutton. On better land it can be made to pro- duce twice as much. It is more easily cultivated, more easily prepared for market, and is worth more than cotton. Hemp lands in Kentucky are considered very valuable which prodace a thousand pounds of clear fibre per acre, which, according te Professor Procter, who has written a valuable work on this subject, nets about $29 per acre. Jute will net twice this amount, Lonpon, Jan. 16.—A Cairo dispatch in Constaatinopla report that some Cir- cassiaus atiempted Sunday to assassi- nate the Sultan ; plot.

The members of the Legislatare from this section are urged to exert themselves in this matter. Will tley do it? Have they the welfare of the State really at heart? If so, they cannot be faithful to themselves, or te the peo- ple they represent, auless they take hold and help put thw State on au equal foot- ing with ber neighbors.

Journal! of Science. It is usually supposed that men of great intellectual powers have large and mass- ive heads ; buc the theory which Dr. Gil- bert, physician to Queen Elizabeth, was the first to suggest, is not borne out by facts. Av examination of busts, pictures, medallions, iutaglios, ete., of the world’s famous celebrities almost tends the other way. In the earlier paintings, it is true, meu are distinguished by their large heads buat this is attributable te the painters, who agreed with the geveral opinion and wished to flatter their sitters. A reced- theless this feature is found in Alexander the Great, and, to a lesser degree, in Julius Cwsar. The head of Frederick the Great, as will be seen from one of the portraits in Carlyle’s work, receded dread- fully. Other great men have had posi- tively small heads. Lord Byrou’s was remarkably small, as were those of Lord Bacon and Cosmo di Medici. Men of ge- nius of ancient times have ouly what may be called an ordinary or every day fure- head, aud Herodotus, Alcibiades, Plato, Aristotle and Epicurus, among many oth- ers, are mentioned as instances. Some are even low-browed, as Barton, the au- ther of ““The Anatomy of Melancholy ;” Sir Thomas Browne and Albert Darer. The average forehead of the Greek seul p- tures iu, the frieze from the Parthenon is, we are told, “lower, if anything, than what is seen in moderu foreheads,” The bor, but we must see to it that we | people understand the possibilities offer- ed by the basiness of that region.

The lumber interests will miles as the crow flies. Very few of our growth reads like a fairy tale, and yet it is simply a repetion of the influence of railreads upoh a region of rich mineral deposits. Great manafacturing ports have been built up oa the Atlantic by the agency of railroads in connecting the Apalachain range with the nearest and mest commodious harbor on the sea coast. Philadelphia, Baltimore and Rich- mond have grown in population and wealth by extending the advantages of ther harbors to the coal and iron regions back of them. Six years ago the Lonisville & Nash- ville railroad hauled enly two thousand tons of Alabama coal annually. Now there are 2,750 tons of coal mined daily ia the Birmingham district alone, giving a yearly preduct valued at $1,300,000 at the myues. There is an almost daily in- creasiag output, and yet the demand is far in excess of the supply. In and im- mediately around Birmingham there are five blast furnaces already in operation, and in two or three more months five new buildings will be completed and in operation. The daily product of the ten furnaces will be 865 tons of pig iren; or 315,725 tons per annum. This multiplied by the market price of $20 per ton, gives $6,314,500 as the value of a year’s pro- duct of pig iron in the Birmingham die- trict. Add the value of the coal output and the pig iron predact tegether and we have $7,605,675 as the sam of money to be dug out of the gronnd around Bir- ningham during the year beginning next April, even should no more furnaces be erected or mives opened. Bat we hear of many more furnaces to be erected, and mines will be epened as fast as the rail- roads can furnish transportation. Ju an- other year the annual productions in and around Birmingham, where twelve years ago there was nothing but poor cornfields will equal iu valae ene half of the cotton that comes to Mobile annually. en The First Railread. _—— Columbia Cor. News & Courier. Seme days ago Secretary of State Lips- comb received a letter from Mr. W. A. Ackerman, of Chicago, president of the Illinois Central railroad, saying that there had been discussions in Chicago as to which was the first railroad actually operated in this country and enclosing an extract from the Chicago Times claim- ing that “the first railroad train was op- erated on a road in South Carolina.” Col. Lipscomb referred Mr. Ackerman’s letter to Gen. Wilmot G. DeSaussare, of Chares- ton, with the request that he would fur- nish the desired information. He has just received a Jetter from Gen. DeSaussure enclosing the history of the South Caroli- na Railroad pablished in the News and Courier, Jaly 28, 1881. After alluding to this “carefully prepared” account of the South Carolina read, Gen. DeSans- aure says: “Asa child of about eight years I remember being taken to see the sail propelled car aud of being lifted into it. J. Smith Homans, in bis Cyclopedia of Commerce, says ‘the first passenger railroad was the first thirteen miles of the Baltimore and Ohio in 1830 from Bal- timore to Elkridge.’ ‘Frances A. Kemble, in her records of a life, undor date of September, 1833, tells of a ride taken by her on the Liver- pool aud Manchester Road and being seated alongside of Stephenson, the pre- jecter. She rede twenty-five miles and made the distance in less than an hour. Lieber’s Eucy. Amer. gives au account of the early roads in the United States, and Chambers’ Eucyclopedia epitomises it; ‘probably the Mauch Chunk was the first road, the Baltimore and Ohio the first passenger road, and the South Carolina Road the first in the world which carried over one hundred wiles.’ ” I may add that is Poor’s Railroad Man- uel for 1882 itis stated that the South Carolina Railroad when it was opened for traffic in 1833 ‘‘was the lougest ci n- tinueus line of railroad in the world.” This is undoubtedly the fact. STATE NEWS. Raleigh Observer: The biennial re- port of the opperations of the penitentia— ry, endiog October 31 last, is interesting. Capt. Stamps’ report pays the officers of the institution, their- management, &c., very high compliments. The report ot Mr. Hicks, architect and warden, show that there were on the 3ist of October, 1880, 993 convicts, and in two years 856 were received from the counties, and 117 recaptured, making a total of 1,966. Of these 501 were discharged by reason of the expiration of their sentences, 63 wore 237 escaped, 140 died, 8 were killed while attempting to escape, 5 were killed by land slides on the railroads, 3 killed by rocks while blasting, and 9 were killed in other ways, leaving the number bury, N. C. berry CH,S8.C; James Ramsay, Salis- gods themsclyes are represented with “ordivary, if vot lower brows.” Thus it October 31, 1822, 996. Of these there ‘Virginia 63, foreigners 5. Of thisn 580 coald neither reader nor write,!71 s ap gers, only one each is recorded as an in- mate. Whether the drummer was a mili- taire or a commercial tourist, is not stat- ed, perhaps the latter. Of the 856 prisoners who were received during the two years, 226 were under 20 years ef age; 399 between 20 and 30 years ; 108 between 30 and 40 years; 55 between 40 and 50 years; 43 between 50 and 60 years ; and 17 between 60 and 70 years. As to sex, there were: white males 128, colored males 683; white fe- males 1, colored females 44. Of married persons there were 374, single 462, wid- ows 4, widowers 16. New Hanover con- tributed the greatest number of cunvicts, 52, Wake 48, Forsyth 35, while Alexan- der, Graham, Harnett, Hyde, Ouslew, Pamlico, Swain and Yancey seut only one each, It was the first imprisonment of 769 persous, the second of 76, the third of 10, the fifth of 1. “So it will be seen that an hour spent looking over a prisen report reveals some curious and interest- ing facts. Freezing Sensations. James Humphrey, a Canadian, who vearly froze to death in a recent snow storm while dri ving home from a distance gives an interesting account of the sensa- tiens experienced: When -he felt no longer able to hold the reins with any grip he determined to seek shelter in the first house until well warmed. His tongue became stiff, then his arms, sharp chills ran through his back and it finally seemed as though his whole body was be- ing congealed, causing an almost total cessation of the heart’s action. The con- dition ef extreme suffering and despon- dency speedily gave place to a feeling ef gateful warmth saffusing the system and causing an exhilerating glow. By this time he had reached a house, bat drove on, thinking that nothing was to be fear- ed. The sleigh instead of crawling along at a spail’s pace, appeared to glide thro’ the alr with great swiftness, and the horses fairly flew like pigeons. A sense of exultation filled the farmer’s breast as he urged the horses to a greater speed, and the woods on each side were passing so quickly that they became un- distinguishable black lines. Then the sleigh bells sounded fainter and fainter, until the chimes disappeared in the dis— tance, the farmer fell gradually iuto a delicious slumber, which came near be- ing the sleep that knows no waking, and he knew vo more until brought to life un- der a vigorous treatment. EO ATLANTA, Jan. 16.—A number of cot- ten manufacturers met here to-day and orgauized a Southern Cotton Marufuactu- rers Association bys the election of J. F. Hanson, of Macon, President, and T. B. Dallas, of Nashville, Secretary and Treas- urer, the former is the agent of the Bibb Cotton Manufacturing company, and the latter is the treasurer of the Nashville Cotton Mills. Jersey Cry, N. J. Jan. 15.—President Boyce, of the city,bank, has been com- mitted to jail ia default of $10,000 bail ; and his sou-in-law and cashier Shaw, have been sent along with himin default of $20,000 bail. Lonpon, Jan. 15—An extensive strike of the employees of the Caledonian Rail way has taken place. Only 10 of 40 en- gines in Hamilton depot can be used. Five hundred men paraded in Hamilton te-day prior to quitting the town for Glasgow. New York, Jan. 14.—The elegant pri- vate residence of Sumuel C. Lewis, at Tarrytown, was burned last night. The loss on the building and contents is $130,000. The inmates barely escaped in their night clothes. ——- Newbern Journal: Thanks to the hu- mane heart of Gov. Jarvis, Kinston has been spared the brutal exhibition of a pablic hanging on the 19th instant. The death sentence passed ou Cicero Collivs has been commated by the Governer to imprisonment for life. Jadge McRae, be- fore whom he was convicted, and many citizens of this county, recommended the commatation. SS The propensity to erect military stat- ues, to which the Journal called attention recently as prévailing in this country, is about to have an absurd illustration. Ohio proposes to place in the eld hall of the House of Representatives at Wash- ington —now called the Hall of Statuary —a military statue of Garfield. Garfield |! was a staff officer chiefly, and wade no military reputation. His fame was ac- quired entirely by his service asa mem- ber of the House of Representatives, and therefore there is an iuaptness in this Ohio idea that borders on the grotesque. —Char.

These refusals caused scenes of recrimination aud often of pos- itive violence between the lovers. The man wearied of- the connection, and the woman clung devotedly to him for whom she had sacrified her honor. Gambetta disliked the child, who was sickly, but intelligent, and lived as hisnephew. He resembled Gambetta in character and features. Two years ago Leouie’s huas— band died, and ahe summoned Gambetta to fulfil his promise of marriage, but re- ¢eived another refusal. He made an agreement, however, to provide for young Leon, on the condition that he shoald be educated in Germany. The mother hesi- tated, bat finally consented, and accom- panied the child and his father to Dres- den. The connection was continued af- ter their-return, Leonie going every, Sat- urday afternoon to.his villa, where she wns aceepted as mistress by the servants and returning Monday worning ir his car- riage.

When he was first seen Sunday night he was on a narrow ledge 300 feet down the blaff, and one hundred feet above the water. A small light told where he was. It seemed impossible to rescue him, owing to the peculialr forma- tion of the mountain side. Atday break he could be seen clinging to the almost perpendicular wall. Five men took repes to-day and worked their way down until they got within 50 feet of him, threw him the rope, which he fastened about his bedy and was let dewn 100 feet to the ground below. > Mobile Register: A successful iron mas- ter of Bermingham, Ala., shows by indis- putable figures that iron is now made in the Birmingham district at a cost below $10 a ton, and this irou can be laid down in Cincinnati for $13.50 a ton, where it is now selling at $21 cash.

The Railroad Record, published at At- lanta, Ga,, noting that }],000 miles of new railroads were built in the United States and Territories in the year 1882, points to the fact that nearly one-third of it was done in the South, It says railroading has just begun in the South, and that there js no reason why a greater mileage will uot be constructed in 1883 ; the work is cut out for it and the capital is ready ; the steel raj? mills need sotdespaend ; al! their product will be reqnired for the next twelve montha.

The total of ex- uses for tuition, board, bvoks, fuel, ights aud washing need not exceed $200 a year. The most liberal estimate would not exceed three hundred. We do not knew where so many and such excellent aivantages may be had fer so little muney. The University is a State Institution. It recognizes aud teaches the Christian religion, bat it belongs te no sect or de— nomination. It belongs to no’ political ty. It is the property of the people of orth Caroliua as citizens, Among its students are young men of all parties in politics ; of all creeds in religion, und from all sections of the country. Representiug, as these young men do, a wide range of culture and talent and thought, the ag- regate result of their assuciation in the ecture room is a high standard of schol- arship ; of their association in daily life a high type of decoram and manliness. The student bedy is an essential aud powerful element in moulding the character of a college. The remarkable success attained in all the walks of life, both in North Caroljvua and other States, and in the councils of the United States, by grada- ates of the University, is attributable in no small degree to the influevces emava- tiug from and controling that powerful stadent body which for three-quarters of & century has gathered iu its walls; in- fluences which are but the miniature of the ferces of society. in broader life.

J. C. Price, now numbers 75 pupils, some of them from a distance. The object of the Insti- tution is to qualify pupils te teach both in this country and in foreign fields, The opening is certainly very premising, and the work is progressing quietly and effi- ciently. The growth of the Institution has been so rapid as to necessitate the erection of a temporary building of cen- siderable size to accommodate the pupils. o—- — Mr. J. P. Gowan of this city has in his pessession a hickory cane, presented to him by Mrs. Carson, the wife of Col. Jno. Carson. The cane was a preseut from Gen. Andrew Jackson to her husband.

The mill house is nearly completed, and the mills are to start soon. They will handle from 40 to 60 tons of ore per day. New shafts are being sank —hoisting brown and salphar- eted ores of a good grade. The Reporter dropped in at the U. 8. Mint, Charlotte, ang had a few mements interview with Prof. Geo. B. Hanna. Prof. Banvasays: — At the Herring mine, in Randolph Co., they are working a small force—using Howland pul verizer—bat is not informed as to returns. the building of a new charch. This action is necessary for several reasons ; the present building being too small and is also considered dangerous—the walls being sprung. Rev. Mr. Smith has drawn desigus that are very attractive and the estimates fer the building will cost $38,000. This is very moderate for a eongregation estimated to be worth a quarter of a million. Rev. Mr. Smith has resigned his position as pastor in charge, bat can be induced to stay, provided the congregation baild the new charch within a reasonable time. —_— oO A bill to work the pablic roads by taxation has been lost in the Legislature —it is said by a strict party vote—the re- publicans favoring and the Democrats opposing. If the vote had just been the other way it would have been more grat— ifying toa large number of the Demo- cratic voters of the, State. With all sin- cerity, we wish every man who voted against the bill had to walk over the roads—dirt roads—frow Raleigh to their homes, and that they bad to start with the next rain fall. Good roads are a necessity in the State, whether under Re- publican or Democratic rule. "> The few linea in regard to the “town government” in last issue has elcited much comment; one gentleman said, “unfortanately for as, it is all trae.” And so others have expressed themselves, de- nouncing the carelessness of the mayor as an enemy to law and good order. Look back to the holidays and the events oc- curring from the loose way of doing busi- ness. The results are sach as to bring sensure onthe town, and on the Com- missioners, when neither were responsi- dle. The Commissioners are ready to hold their meeting to transact the impor- tant duties connected with the changes proposed in the town charter, But the Mayor is teo basy with other busivess. A gentleman,tuld the Reporter that a policeman stepped up to the Mayor, while engaged ina conversation on a street corner, and said: Ihave a man at the office, for violating an ordinance (men- tioning the offence) and the. Mayor said, ‘‘what are you going to do with him 1” The “Cop” replied, “that is what I came to you for, to find out.” The Mayor told him he would see him after awhile. Whether be ever did see him er not, the Reporter was uninformed. Bat it is the careless, want of business principle that the people object to'in the Mayor. He is capable of performing the daties im posed by his office, but he is so crowded with other business that he cannot find the time to give to municipal affairs. In jus- tice to hinrself and the men who elected him, he should resign in favor of some one who has the time and the incliva- tion. How he can draw the meagre salary ($500.) for his services as Mayor, while he has so effectually ignored the duties of the office, is a question. A careful calcalution might make the town 49 cents his debtor—and that would be duubtful if the losses sustained by the town indnes which should have been imposed aud collected, were taken inte ac- count. The time is approaching when a new Mayor is to be elected—let the peo- ple of «ll parties, white and black, make up their minds toeclect a mae who has time, and who is poor enough to appre- ciate the salary, and who really feels some concern for the reputation and im- provement of the town, Black voters are mentioned, because no class suffers more from disorder than they, and they have felt the force of it. Mr. E. W. Hovey continues to work at the Cramp mine, with some resalts. The Crump property is pear the Mecklenbarg and Union line. Mr. J. C. Bates, Sup’t. of the Victoria mine is getting out some good material —galenite. He has also a small force working at the “Howie”—old Stockton. Both these mines are in the same section —near the.Cramp. The McGinn mive, near Chartotte, is full of water—the pamps were stopped during the Holidays and the work has not been resumed. Atthe Arlington Guarantee, they are down 80 feet and sinking. They expect to explore the property thoreaghly. Not a great dealof ore has been develop- ed so far. The Capps Hill mine, which adjoins the above, ia worked with usual vigor. They have 900 tons of ore on the dumps. DesiGNOLLe.—Ores from Capps Hill, Herring avd New Discovery mines have been sent to the Designolle werks. Sev- eral preliminary rans have been made and aatisfactory results reported. Atthe Brewer mine, 8. C., they have recently opened a valuable part of the property—a class of soft ore worth $3, per ton, suitable for hydraulic mining, and ig likely to pay very well. “The Rich Knob Copper Company,” of Ashe county, and the Brown Mountain Mining Company” of Watauga ceagty, have recently been iucerporated r the laws of the State, and will begin operations at an early ‘late.

After along discussion the provision for extra duty on iron and steel articles manufactared from them when galvaniz- ed or coated with any metal, was amend- ed so as not toapply to painted articles or to wire, and the extra rate applicable to other articles, was reduced from one half to one quarter of a cent per peund. *On motion of Allison, the rate on stéel; not specially ena was chatiped from 3 cents per pound to 30 per cent ad- valorem. On motion of Platt, the duty on nickel in the ore or other crade form was reduc- ed from twenty cents per pound to cents. The same reduction was made & to nickel oxide or alloy of any Kind is which nickel is an ingredient of thee value, and “ingots sheets or other of irow ore or other metal covered or pla- ted with nickel, and ware made of meta? so covered or plated” were struck from the paragraph. On motion of Dawes, the duty on sheathing or yellow metal pot wholly of copper nor wholly or in part of iron un- galvanized in sheets, 48 by 14 inches, and weighing 14 to 34 ounces per square foet was fixed at 35 per cont advalorem. Platt meved an additional clause, pro- viding for a duty of 35 par cent advalo- rem ov all sporting, breach-loading shot guns and 10 per cent. advalerem on forg- ed shot gun barrels, rougl bored. Agreed to, 22 to 19. Beck moved to fix the duty om metallic pens, penholders and pencils, 40 per cent advalorem. Agreed to, 22 to 20. Bayard moved to reduce the duty on nianafactared articles or wares not spe- cially enamerated from 45 to 30 per cent. advalorem. Sherman moved to make it 35. Bayard accepted the amendmeut aod it was agreed to. Geerge offered an amendment provid- ing for a duty of 10 per cent. advalorem en machinery for the manufacture of clothes and thread composed in whole or in part of cotten, hemp, jute or ramie; on all tools of mechanics used solely in manual labor. George said he desired to make some remarks on this amend- ment and as it wa’ now 9 o’¢lock the hour agreed upon fer adjournment, he moved to adjourn, Edmunds called for the ayes and nays and the motion to adjourn was loat, ayes 18, noes 25. Motions to ge into executive session and to adjourn were lost. Beck and Morley complained of a breach of the understanding that the Sepate would adjouro at 9 o’clock. Morrill said several Senators having anderstood the day’s session was not to extend beyond 9 o'clock, he would sow move to adjourn, so at 9:30 the Senate adjourned.

Accordingly the first vote ‘was on the provision that. machinery for the mannfacture of cotton and woolen gvods, or goods composed of hemp, jute ot ramie, should be admitted at 10 per cent advalorem.

Jenas and Vance’s amendments were also rejected by an equally decisive vote. The metal schedule being disposed of the Sevate proceeded to consider the sugar schedule. Morrill offered a substitute for the schedule of which he gave notice on the 20th inst. At 10:30 the Sevate was still in session. Hovse.—The House at 11:40 went into committee of the whele, Barrows, of Michigan, in the chair, on the tariff bill. Debate ov the pending paragraph and on all amendments was limited to 30 minutes. The schedules of the bill were finally reached, and a large number of amend- ments were offered rapidly, and as rap- idly voted down, until Carlisle moved to place tartaric acid on the free list, stating that the estimated revenue from that article weuld be 85 cents during next year. As the debate was running on, Ham- mon, of Georgia, suggested that if the discussion was stopped, and the article pat on the free list, he would pay the 85 cents revenue outof his own pocket. The motion was lost. _ Belford, of Colorado, called attention to the fact that the House spent 2 days on 9 paragraphs of a bill comprising 140 pages, avd said the present Congress would expire by limitation before the last page of the bill coald be reached, and he urged less talk and more work. Several amendments to the rate on castor were offered, and 70 cents per gal- jon was finally adopted. The duty on glucose was placed at 20 per cent adva- lorem.

On motion of Morrison, of Illinois, the clause repealing sections 2,907 and 2,908 revised statutes, was inserted in this part of the bill instead of in the concluding sectinns as proposed by the committee. (These are the sections for duties ov com- missions and charges.) White, of Kentucky, offered an amend- ment previdivg that upen the re-impor- tation of articles, the growth, produet or manufacture of the United States, upon which no internal tax has been assessed or paid, there shall be levied, collected and paid a duty double instead of equal as. provided by the bill to the tax impos- by internal revenue Jasre upon such a ticles. He said that the provision of the bill wils an attempt which went far to convince Lim of the truth ef thie state- ment made on the floor last year that there stemed to be an understanding be- tween some special tariff men aud some cial whiskey men, which was doing 00 benefit te this country and a goud deal leds to the Republican party. He chal. lenged er of hie assertion that it was an atteinpt to do by indirection what way. The bonded extension bill had beeu slipped throagh the Hoase in a method which was infamous.

On the arrival of ono of the packets from Baton Rouge, Gov. S. D. MeEnery was seen descending the stage-plank leading an aged negro with one hand and carrying his carpet sack in the other. The incident attrac— ted the attention of a reporter, who dis- covered that the old man had formerly belonged to the McEuery family and was blind.

It woald be wise if such a law was enforced throughout every state day, in reference to the immense acea- walation of silver cuin, which the gov- ernment is helpless te put in cirenlation ought to be sufficient to convince the most obdurate that it is time to discon—- tinue the coinage of silver. In the last, four yeara it has cost the government over $105,000 merely to build vaults to store its surplas silver; $8,268 of this amount was expended to build a vault in the sub-treasary at Baltimore, and this | vault aud the others whieh have beco | built at New York, San Francisco and | aud Philadelphia are filled to their at- most capacity. Thirty-five hondred tons of silver, more than $120,000,000 is now ow hand, and it does net seem that any method can be devised to get rid of it, unless the plan pointed out in a petition which was presented in the Senate some years sivce by Mr. Howe, vow the post- master Geueral, be followed. The peti- tien, which came from Iowa, asked that there be paid out from the treasury a dol- lara week to every man woman and Child in the country. The adoption of this plan would empty the treasury of all its silver in about three weeks, and it would be just as sensible as to continue silver coinage.— Wash. Cor.

J. Hale, Jr. Success to the enterprise. The old ‘Fayetteville Observer,” by E. J. Hale, Sr., was one of the best papers in the country, because always on the side of truth and righteous- ness. May the son emulate the father by a like distinction. re Bills have been introduced in the Leg- {slature to change the present county goverument and the mode of appointing magistrates, bat they are not likely to pass, Why? For the reasons that a ma- jority of the members have not forgotten that the present system was ratitied by the people, and that all the noise made on these subjects last sammer and fall was made by mon who thought these would be popular hobbies to ride into popular favor and the people did not al- Jow them to dae it. eer Oe ScHOOL AssxssMENT BILL.—Mr. Dortch has subjpitted a bill in the Senate to pro- vide for asseasment by school districts for tlie benotit of schools. Ten white vo- ters of a school district may petition for an asbusament, and the County Couimis- sioners under certnin proscribed rules, may order av election to pass on the prayer of the petitioners. Tho negrves, wonder the same law, muy also petition for an asagasment, and precisely the same rules apply to them, The monies raised by assessment on the whites is to gu to the support of white schools exclusively; and the money raised by assessing the blacks, will be for the exclusive use and benetit of the aghools for colored children. The bill is spoken of very bighly by the press, and ia likely to become a law. SD A Dr. Ramsar’s bill for the relief of those who had tried the stock law and wanted to change back to-the old system, came up in the Senate last Thursday, and after the Doctor delivered his Lest speech on the subject, with several references to the political creed of Thos. Jefferson, Mr. Linney, of Alexander county, spoke in Opposition to the bill, which he declared was in conflict with Jeffersovian princi- ples and of law and justice. Watson, of Forsyth, also made a pass at the Senator's bill; so thatamong them, the old Sena- tor’s bill went glimmering away to where the “‘wood-bine twinetb,” at the rate of 27 to J0. At the first glance at the plausible cap- tion of this bill it looked harmless. We thought se, and so said. Buta close in- apection and a little reflection shows that jt was a political pandora’s box, out of which nothing but contention, disquict and trouble could ever have come. ee Aw Excitine Bgeag Cuase.—Captain Was. Brown relates quite an excitiug ac- count of the chase and capture of a large 450 pound bear, which was killed a few weeks ago by Mr. Geo. Carson, of McDow- ell county. Early one evening, just af- ter supper, Mr. Carson was alarmed by a great noise among his hogs, when le went put, hjssed his dogs which struck out in hot pursuit of what proved to be the great brute in question. Mr. Carson, with a couple of friends who were present, all armed, followed close upon the dogs. The bear was soon brought to bey,on the side of a high bluff, on Deer Creek. The Par- fy came up with a solid front, but found the darkuess so dense it was impossible for them to sce the enemy, and according- ly they directed their fire in the direction of the neise made by the angered mon- sterw’s teeth-guashing and geewls as he was trying to make miuce-meat of the slogs. All hands advanced cautiously so aa to get withia close range, wheu Mr. C., who happened to be standing on the side of the bluffimmediately below tho bear, ata given signal, fired a heayy charge pf byckrshot, aud the next thing he was aware of, he and the bear were polling down the side of the bluff in each other's eusbrag:, Mr. C. yelling, © Take him off!

Observer.) Senater Beck, who has made a more exhaastive.study of the tariff than any man except Mr. Carlisle in thé Congress, says concerning the cotton schedule of the Senate bill that it is not only a badly adjusted schedule but one calea- lated to deceive. He asserts that it is a large increase on the present rate on many classes of cotton goods very adroit- ly arranged so as to prevent the fact be- ing known. The debate yesterday bore out the assertion. Aldrich explained and explained, and scolded Vance who expes- ed his line of battle. Vance used up both Aldrich and McPherson, a protection Democrat. The Rhode Island Senator checked an interruption from Vance, bat permitted the Senator from New Jersey, as Vance said, to “shy a brick bat at him.” This, however, only gave our Zebulon a better chance whea he again got the floor. He made a point, which only received a feeble reply, when he said: “The great argument for giving this tariff is that it enables our people to pay higher wages te our operatives than the English can pay; and vow that we have got to a point where we can manufacture on a par with English, cent for cent, just as cheap as they can and pay wages atill higher, I want to kuow apd have a candid answer frem the Sen- ator, if that does not show conclusively that the price of labor in this country does not depend upon the tariff?” In the latter part of his remarks Gov. Vance denounced in vigorous and picturesque English the policy of drawing bounties to sustain industries which would other- wise fail, such as the manufacture of laces to rival those of Nottingham. Both the Rhode Island Senators referr- ed to mills in North Carolina and other Southern States. Vance replied to Aldrich and Ransom to Anthony—janier to junior and senior to senior. The former ex- plained that the goods produced at the few factories in North Carolina were ef the very lowest grade as to quality of goods and required labor the least skill- ed —the reverse of the state of things in Rhode Island. Mr. Anthony thought that the States of North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and Alabama were des- tined to be the great centres of manufac- turing in this country ; that the protec- tion of the manufacturing of cotton was mere important to those States than to any State iu New England. Bat he let the cat out of the bag the next moment by saying that the bill reduces rates on articles of common uge, such as he re- commended in a patronizing way to the Southern mill owners, and increases the duty on laces and other objects of taxing, which he proposed to have made by Nerthern manufacturers. The bait was net shrewdly hidden. Gen. Ransom saw the poiut of the hook and refused to bite. Said he: The Southern cotton factories now make coarse cotton goods. The fac- tories in the Senator’s section of the country propose to make stil! finer goeda. This it seemed to me if I voted for the proposition, and should give the vote I wished to give, I should be voting for discrimination against luxury and in fa- vor of the necessaries of life. But the Senator from Rhode Island has nut left me thut option. By his remarks he has satisfied me thatthe effeet of the propo- sition is to increase the duty, the protec— tion upon articles which the North pro- pose to manufacture, and to reduce the protection upon that class of goods which they would leave te the Seuth to manu- factare. With that view of the case, coming from the South as I do, 1 caurot vote for this proposition.” Ou Weduesday General Vanee present- —_—>—____ Flood at Cleveland. The Highest Since 1859. CLEVELAND, Obio, Feb. 5.—The flood Was at ils height at noon yesterday. The river is ten fect higher thaw the origiual stage and flats are covered, and the lum-— ber yards, elevators, iren works, machine shops, flour mills, packing houses, facto- ries of various sorte and railroad freight houses more or less submerged. It is estimated that 23,000,000 feet of lumber, from tem to fifteen million shin- gles have been washed from the lumber yards. ‘The Valley railroad is under water for miles, and its bridge at Weightlock is swept away. The mills of the Cleveland Paper Company, containing 40 tons of paper, are in water nearly to the top of the first story. There bas beon leas dam- age to shipping than was feared. The tug Florence was sunk and schoon- ers and steamboats were rudely toased about but most of them rede through with little injary. The freshet is the uiost destructive ever known here and the water higher than since 1859. The damage is scarcely less than $1,- 000,000, aud may be greater. The rain hag geased and the weather is turning rapidly gold, The heavy rains have dene great dam- age threenfoas this portion of the State aud Western Penpsylvania. All the stieams are high, bridges carried away and farms inundated. Property and live stock have been carried away.

Street car traffic is badly deranged in nearly all the Northwestern cities, a ee An Incompetent Congress. The Mt. Airy News has recently been shown a letter from Hon. R. F. Armfield from which the following isan extract: It has been my opinion for weeks, and is still my opinien, that no bavukrupt law, no bill to abolish or redace the tax on to- bacce or whiskey, no bill to materially reduce the tariff, will pass this session of Congress. I hada talk the other day with Mr. Carlisle, of Kentucky, who isa member of the committee on ways and means, and has fall opportunity to knew the status of affairs here, and he agrees with me in the opinion I have expressed above. It has been clear to the country, since the Ist of January, that no legislation in the public interest is to be expected from the forty-seventh Congress. lt may probably pass a tariff bill, so contrived as to reduce revenue without affordiag the people any substantial relief from their burdeus of taxation or witbeat interfering iu the least with the profits of Northern manufacturers; but it will do nothing that the voice of the country demanded in November last. The work of reform will devolve upon the new Congress, which meets in December next, aud if it faithfully discharges its trust the way to the election of a Democratic President next year will be plain and casy.—States- ville Landmark. ———_-2_-— A Fight with a Bull Dog. Mr. Alex. Brooks, of New Salem town- ship, and a large English bull dog belong- ing to Mr. Jacob Mallis, had a terrible fight a few days ago, the particulars of which we learn from Mr. Brooks himself. Mr. Brooks wentto Mr. Mullis’ on an errand (they are neighbors) and before he got into the yard he was discovered by the dog, which made for him at once, bounding over the gate without touching it. Mr, Brooks saw the dog coming, and knowing itedisposition, made for the wood pile, which is eutside of the enclosure, to get something with which to defend him- self. Jast as he stooped to pick ap the axe the dog caught him by the shoulder and threw him, but be succeeded in free- ing himself and rising, made several passes at the deg before striking him, the dog all the while playing around him and trying to catch him by the throat. He finally stove the axe into the dog up to the eye, and nearly cut off ove of his fore legs, but he appeared not to notice such trivial matters and fought on, get- ting Mr. Brooks down the second time, and not until he knocked his brains out did he succamb. The dog was a very heavy one, aud all that saved Mr. Brook’s life is the fact that he is a very stout man and succeeded in getting hold of the axe just at the right time. A child ora weak- ly man would have steod no chance with bim whatever. It was Mr. Mullis’ custom to secure the dog in the morning, bute hud neglected to do it on this morning. Mrs. Maillis was the only one of the fam- ily athome and she had no control over the dog whatever. —Monroe Euquirer and Express. —_-_____ How to Kill a Town. Building lots can be bonght in Atlanta, Georgia, cheaper than they can be bought in Greensboro Nerth Curolna, and that is why Greensboro, grows 80 slowly. There are men in Greensboro, we are told, who have heretofore imagined that place would be the “future great” and have tangled up prices and raised real estate so high that they can never sell any more lots. At Os- wego, N. Y., where the editor of this paper saw & growth from{ 3,000 population to 30,000 and then a falloff to 23,000, 7,000 loss in five years, the ideas of city progress were well illustratrated While building lots were from §25 to $75 per lot the city grew. But when the pop- ulation reached 30,000 speculation became rampant and many aman who invested in city property by $10,000 bargains soon saw tenantless houses onevery side of him and subsequently had to mortgage some of his lots to pay the tax on the rest of them. The town began to go backwards then and is still at a standstill. High Point must not be conceited over a little prosperity. It is more difficult for towns to bear prosperity than it is for individuals. When our read- ers see’ the announcement of items of im- provement in our city, let them remember that they should read them with “modest pride,” and ifany one gets excited over them let it be our outside readers whem we are trying to influence to settle in High Point. Don't kill the place by refusing te selljots at reasonab’eratis! There is; nty of land to the acre” here and it is feolish for any one to imagine they should have $200 for a little “tucked up” let here when in the adjoining county of Randolph farms of 200 acres are for sale for a dollar an acre. Don't let a single man go away from bere agan, if he has any netion of buying and will pay you in cash, balf what you ask fer alot.—-High Point Pioneer. _—— ——~<—>- —- - + The Sheriffs of the State are to hold a mecting in Raleigh on Thursday the 15th for the purpose of discussing matters affec- ting their fees and other mattegg of interest to be brought to the atteution of the General Assembly. Piivty Men Carried Down | A Train Ove Denver, Cot., January 31.—Laat night about 3 miles from Crested Butte, oceur- lever known in the Rocky Mountain re- gious. Late in the night 30 men, employ- ed in the Howard Smith anthracite coal mine, were startled from their sleep by a rambling noise and almost instantly the avalanche was upon them. The building in which they were sleeping wascrushed, and the men were buried down the moun- tain side. A rescuing party started out from Crested, as soon as the news was received, and after several hours’ labor the men were all uncovered. Philip Car- miv, Logan Inman, Louis Richards, Wm. Moore, Charles Betts, J. J. Raymond and one other, name unknown, were found dead. Eighteen others were wounded, several fatally. All of the company’s expensite machinery was dos(royed. A passenger train yesterday, whon within six miles of Crested Butte, was divided, the engiue going ahead to clear the track. When about four wiles from where it left the coaches the engine was struck by a snow slide, ditched, and is now under about twenty feet of snow. A wrecking ongive which left this morving could not get nearer than two miles, and returned to-night for provisious for the starving passenger. —_—_—_—_—_——P OO ee Macon, Ga., Feb. 5.—An unknown young woman throw her infant from a car window this morning between Macon and Atlanta, near Frankville while the train was at full speed. She got on at Macon bound for Atlanta. Thechild was picked up by the road bands. It was badly bruised but it may live. Seo The Macon (Ga.)

M. Horal’s were kept busy barking io ‘the corner of his front yard, by a noctar- nal serenade ona banjo. Nothing was suspected from this occurrence, (by no means rare on our streets) until next morning when it was discovered that bis bacon had been stolén during the night. Then thelight streamed in—while the dogs were doing their best to relieve the monotony of the banjo, the thieves had actually relieved the smoke house. The police should keep an eye on every banjo- picking-meat-stealing do g-charmiug-in- dividual in the community. But the same game can hardly be played twice. ——— 1) Thecorener was called to the country Saturday to investigate the death of a negro woman. There were several cir- cumstances to demand bis investigation. She was found in a gully or ditch in the woods, and her husband had not only not noticed her absence, bat had been careless about her condition prior to her disappearance, which had occurred five days before her discovery. The Coroner's inquest only proved that she died from a multiplicity of diseases, any of which would have proven fatal singly, ander like circumstances. It seems that she was on her way for water, aud fell by the way and died from exhaustion—no evidence of foul play came to light by the inves- tigation. ————_o-—_———- The amendmeuts to the town charter have been prepared and sent to Raleigh fur ratification by the Legislature. The amendments provide for issuing bonds to the amount of $30,000. $5,000 to be ap- plied to settling the present indebtedness of the town, and the remaining $25,000 to be spent on the atreets— macadamiz- ing. It is feared that the amoant set aside for the streets is too small, yet our citizens may be thankful for what they can get. The preseut board of commis- sioners have been laboring for two years to get some organized system for im- proving the streets. They will be, or should be, continued as a board for anoth- er year, or longer, so that their’ plans for the permanent improvemeut of the streets may be matured. —_——o There is complaint that the freight trains block the wagon approach te the cotton platform at the depot, and keep them blocked for a considerable length of time, thus hindering business and making trouble. This same blocking effects the approach to the Warehouse, grain and hay—of J. D. McNeely and the Tobacco Warehouse also, The Railroad, or the Town must wake a ruling for the relief of teamsters. The resident railroad offi- cers will no dout have this rectified, as svonas the matter is brought before them in proper shape. ——O BLoopy Derps.—McDowell county has recently been the scene of severul bloody deeds. A Mr. White braived a Mr. Gil- bert, with a heavy rifle barrel, fear Old Fort, last Friday. There were no wit- nesses. It was the settlement of an old feud between the young men. White claims to have acted in self defence, but no deadly weapons were found on the dead man. Au old woman, living pear Uld Fort committed suicide last week by hanging. She got up in the night and tied three hanks of yarn together, slipped her head through one end and hung the other on a hook in the joice, aud jumped from the table she had used in the dismal prepara- tions fur the laarching of her soul into Eternity. Her husband and children were asleep in the room, and were not aware of the horible deed, until next morning, when they awoke to find the wife and mother swinging from the sealing, with ghastly countenance locked in death. At Marion last Monday wight, Mr. Connelly shot Mr. Brown, iu the back of the neck. This is supposed to be a case of accidental sheoting, aud the wound is not considered fatal. et OS A New York lady’s expression in regard to ‘Heart of Steel,” as expressed in a let- ter to a gentleman of this city: In regard to ‘‘Heart of Steel,” well I cannot say enough. It is certainly one of the most charming works I have ever read. It has completely bewitched jme, and I wish se mach I could see the “*Au- theress”-and thank her from my heart of hearta for all the beautiful thoaghts she has given me, Such charming caltivat- ed conversation—such a thorou hly refin- ed atmosphere pervades the whole book ; and the riptions ef Paris and Rome— I only know that I feel as if I had seen the eternal city, and lived over again my brief visit te Paris. There is so little “mawkish” love-making in it and so muel culture and talent.

Last weck’s shipment was 88 ounces of refined gold. The entire gold outpat forthe month ef January was $7,452. This does not take into account the output in copper, Which is more flat- tering than the return of gold. They are running 20 stamps now, aud have just closed a contract with Becket & McDowell for 10 more to be delivered at once. They will be planted beside the present battery. The company have rocently purchased the property adjoining, known as “Dodge Hill.” The outcrop on this property is very bold, and shows better than the Conrad Hill veins did on the surface ; and is enly 150 yards distant from the main Engine shaft, at the mines. If this property opens well, aud there is every reasen for believing se, the company will erect a mill a bundred and thirty stamps strovg. ‘This will be aucqnaled by any- thing in the Southern States. At present they are working a force of 150 hands, bat they have advertised fer 175 more— miners avd surface handa—to whom steady employment is promised. Oar readers will bave laid before them in a short time, a sketch of the mines and the work beiug dune there. $e The Foust Mine. Archibald & Co. A non-specalative, private corporation, with L. U. Campbell Sup’t., have taken hold of this property and begun its development. It adjvivs Silver Valley on the west, and is 1 miles from Lexington, N. C. The voin isa bold one, running N. E. aud S. W., down 20 fect. The first shaft was sank to the east of the vein, 65 feet deep, catting a lot of string- ers. The country rock proved too hard and fhe shaft was abandoned, and a pew one opeved on the vein; which at out- crop, is 20 feet wide. It has increased in width as depth was attained, at the rate of from 14 to 3 inches to the fvot. The yein matter is chalcopyrite, intersperced iu a gangue of silica. The indications are that it will run inte galenite at from 70 to 100 feet down. This conclusion js justified from the fact that the stringers cut in first shaft, were of a complex chur- acter, resembling in a marked degree the ores ef Sitver Valley. The compavy have also bought the Hunt property, (52 acres) adjoining the Foust. This isalso a new property, only prospected—to a depth of 15 feet, with a five show for copper. Exploitation work is now being conducted by the Sap’t. —_—$<—$—<— << ae eee The Southern Ore Company Again. Mr. J. Beno, one of the directors of the Southern Ore Company, recently eatab- lished in this city and chartered by the Legislature, expected to leave for Char- lotte last evening, on his way to New York, to attend a meeting of the direc- tora, who will elect a President of the new company. This honer will probably fall upon Mr. Beno, who, as the prime mover in the enterprise and its assidious pro- moter from its inception, is justly enti- tled to the distinction, to ar nothing of having a man of his experience at the head of affairs. While in Charlotte Mr. Beuo will sign contracts with two mining companies for the delivery at the works here of eighty tons of ore per day, all of which will come down on the Carolina Central railroad and will form quite an item of freight on that read.

The reason is obyious In the eveving) after a should ever walk with a gentleman in any city or town without taking hisarm. This is so imperative, that if the gentleman is too ‘ignorant to ark, no lady his arm, the lady should signify that she is ready to take it, afier walking » few moments. The fact that she has his arm, says to strangers ; ‘This gentleman has this lady under his protection. They are not merely strangers who have spoken to each other. In going to any place of entertain- ment the lady should-keep the gen- tleman’s arm until the doorof the auditorium is éntered. Then she should drop it and let him precede ber toher seat, which he will wait for her to enter first, he taking the outside place. This also is common Sense, as you can see; it gives the geutleman the position ef leader and protector, which he should always take in public. He should also, as a rule, always walk on the outside of the pavement, changing, if a turn alters his position, by passing behind the lady and then offering his other arm. There is no familiarity in taking a gentleman’s arm. ‘Phere is nothing Unt respect implied by the offer ef it It ‘Sa courtesy, anda proffer of polite servive, aud nothing to feel awkward about or conscions about, if the arm is taken properly, with one hand, not thrust too far past. the gentleman’s elbow. The lover-like way of clasping both bands on the coat sleeve is only suita- ble for moonlight rambles in courting days, or for very gushing wives du- ring the honey-moon. A8 a general thing, if a geutlewan of high social position and much CX- perience of the world offers you; his arm—we suppose you to be young and inexperienced—yon may safeiy take it, for he will not do it nuless he is sure that its correct under the parasols may be thus nga rain sfurm, “most ‘men of self-possession will at any hour know his duty, or too bashful to offer trust in me. serveme, You call me me, ‘i <+ . ‘When I condemn yon, th blame me not for it.

Marvin turned to quiet her, and as he advanced toward the cage he stum bled and fell against the bars. In an instant she seized his right arm above the elbow. In order to protect his read and body the man fell, and with his left grasped the bottom of the cage.

The family consisted, beside Augie, of her father and mother, and two brothers, John and George. Mr. McLane kept his room, being a confirmed invalid. John, strong-willed and arrogant in tem- per, ruled the family with a rod of iron— George being kiuder tempered, but of much less strength of character. Angie was the only member of the family whom John could not rule, and she carried the joint of her engagement against his bit- ter opposition. Mrs. McLane was a mere shuttlecock between John and Angie, re- ceiving an impulse from one which Inst- ed till the other got held of her. John had accepted the engagement with an exceedingly bad grace, and made scarce- ly a decent pretense of concealing from Bob his contempt and hostility, aud his desire to find any pretext for forcing a quarrel. This was particalarly anpleas- ant and demoralizing to Bob, because the injury to his own self-respect by the sense of the tacit deceit he was guilty of as to his wig, left bim anable to meet Johu’s overbearing insolence with the quiet dignity he would have liked to as- sume. After going to bed he lay awake a coa- ple of hours, thinking over these embar- rassing circumstances, and the delightful fact of Angie’s love to which they were offsets. In the course of his tossings he became aware that his geal ring was not ov his finger, and instantly remembered that, after using it for a forfeit ina par- lor guhe that eveving, he Ifad forgotten to replace it. Vexation at his carcless- ness instantly made him wide awake. The ring must be on the library table. If not, then he knew not where; aud, if there, it might be filched by a servant in the morning. Associations made it in- valuable, avd he found himself so uueasy about its safety that he could not sleep. Perhaps the best thing he could do was to quietly step down stairs in hia stock- ings without disturbing anybody, and make sure about it. He knew that he could even in the dark, steer his way straight to the library. Iu this sleepless excited state of his mind the slight tinge of adventure iu his plan bad an attrac tion. ’ Jumping out of bed he put ona part of his clothes, and softly opening the door of the room, went ‘across the hall and down the steps to the ground floor. It was quite dark, but he found his way ca- sily, having a good topographic instinct. From the lower hall he entered the din- ing room, and frem that the library, The sea-coal fire in the grate was still flicker- ing brightly, illumiuating the samptaons- ly furvished room with a faint, soft glow of peculiarly rich effect. There on the table his ring glittered in the fitful firelight, and, as he slipped it on his finger, he felicitated, himself on his successful enterprise. The room was so charmingly cozy that he felt it would be a sin not to linger awhile. So, throw- ing himself on a sofa before the grate, he fell into a delightful reverie. Just there, in that chair, Angie had sat during the evening, and there he pie- tured her again, fivally going and leaning over it in a caressing attitude, fondly cheating himself. Over there had sat Mrs. McLane, and the chair back at ence transfixed him with two critical eyes, till he was fain to look aways The brothers were there, and there. Bob chuckled with a cozy sense of sar- reptitiousuess as he thought how thy would start could they see him now. Tle subtile pleasure of clandestine things ‘8 doubtless partly the exaggeration of the personality which takes place as the pressure of other minds is withdrawn. To persons of Bob's sensitive mental at- Then he stirred aud aroused warm voluptaous atmosphere of imagi- nation, as ove leaves an cnervating bath. He had been lying thus a fall hour and it ' was high time to return to bed. He left the library and started across the dining- room with a hasty step. | Perhaps long gazing at the fire had daz. . zled his eyes, or perhaps his haste, to- gether with an undue confidence iv bis any thing you can use skill in vavigation by dead-reckoning, F ; rendered him less careful than when he had eome down. However that may be, a light-stand which he had easily avoided then, he now blundered fully upon. Everybody knows that when one stubs the toe in the dark, instead of delivering the blow when the foot is moving slowest, © at the beginuing or the end of the step, it always happens so that the toe strikes with the maximum mowentum. So it, was this time. If Bob had been kicking football he could yot have made a uicer calculation of force, and the shock sent the stand completely over. It would have nmde noise enough any- how, but it mast happen that on this stand the family silver was laid out for breakfast, and the clangor was similar to that of Apollo’s silver bow, that time he let fly at the Grecian host before Troy. _ Bob stood paralyzed with horror. Even the anguish of a terrible-stubbed toe was | forgotten in au overpowering sense of the awfal nfess he had made, and the unim- aginable consequeuce that weuld at once ensue. At the hideous clangor and clat- ter rang through the house, shattering its sacred silence, he shrank together aud | nnde himself small, as if re could impart a sympathetic shrinkage to the noise. The racket to his ewn ears was splitting caough, but he felt, in addition, as if he heard it with the ears of all the family, and he waited’ before the conception of the feelings that were at that moment starting up in their minds toward the un-! known caase of it. His first rational idea was, to bolt for his room, and gain it before any one was fairly roused. But the shock had 60 scat- tered his wits that he could not at once re- call his bearings, and he realized, with in- describable sensations, that he was lost. himself all about the room before he found the right door. As he reached the foot of the staircase, voices were andible above, and lights were’ gleaming down. His retreat was cut off, he could not get back te his room without being discovered. He now distinguished the yoice of Mrs. McLane in an agitated tone entreating somebody te be careful and not get shot, the gruff voices of the bro- thers responding, and then their steps rap- idly descending the stairs. Should he go up and take the risk of a volley while an- nouncing himself? It weuld muke a pretty tableau. Presenting himself in sach aguise and under such circumstanecs, what sort of a reception could he expect from Johu who treated him with nudisguised con- tempt might have hesitated longer, but at a disadvantage? He might have hes- itated longer, but at this momeut the voice of Angie, ersing down to her broth- ers to be careful. decided him. He could not face her under sach terribly false circumstances, without his wig. All this took place far quicker than I can write it. The glimmer of the descend- ing lamp already shone dimly in the hall, and Bob frantically looked abeut him fora hiding place. But all the furnitnre stood ‘up too high from the ffoor, and the corners were distressingly bare. He sprang into the dinning-room, but in the dark he could not see how the land lay, and hurried into the library. The dying fire still shed a dim. light around, and he eagerly canvassed the va rios possibilities of concealment which the room offered. Youthful experience in the game of hide-and-seek now stoed him in good stead, and showed ata glance the inu- tility as refuges of half a dozen places would have deluded one less practised by the specious but tuo-easily-guessed shelter they afforded. Vainly seeking ®& safe refuge, he ran a-ound the apartment like a rat in a trap. He already heard the brothers in the dining-- room picking up the silver and wondering vo find it all there, when, obeying a sudden inspiration, he clainbered upon a lofty boékease that ran across one end of the room, arching above the dining-room door, and reaching within a few feet of the the Whando Phosphate Company, Char- leston, S.C.

The jail was a tough job and required much hard work aud time to ‘yet through it. Meanwhile the negro cut his own throat and was dead when reach- ed; but nevertheless the mob hung his dead carcass to a tree. _— rr io me —te add, may have been in North Carolina also, at a much earlier date than that of its first publication. It is aot quite certaia that the question of where the notable court scene occurred, whether in North Carolina or Virginia, is clearly settled. It is true My Atkinson says he “heard” it in Virginia between 1812 and 1818, and that “it was long afterwards before it was known ia North Carolina.” Long afterwards before it was published in this State, is undoubted- ly correct ; but we suppose if Mr. Atkinson were now living he would not undertake to say that a popular story like this was un- known to many of the lawyers within forty or fifty miles of where he first heard it, in the bordering counties along the line of his State. Nor does Mr. Gregory settle this question, for neither he nor Mr. Pegram, who told him of it, mentions the courthouse where the scene oceurred, or whether it was in Virginia or North Cafolina, There is no positive evidence on this point—no justice—though we admit & shadowy in- ference from the testimony of the gentlemen so hdndsomely, ard doubtless so justly, eulogized by the Star, that it occurred in Virginia. And yet this conclusion can only be reached by a slight reflection on the author of the story for accrediting it to a North Carolina court without knowing it to be just. This can only be account- ed for on the supposition that Mr. Jones did not know it was of.“ Virginia origin” — did not know where the scene actually did take place; or regarded that point as immaterial and of no consequense, Either this, or he did know that it occurred in a North Carolina court, and accredited it ac- cordingly. And it must be admitted that gentlemen in Virginia are not less liabie to be mistaken than was the author, who was risking his reputation for accuracy when he wrote at the head of the story “Scene in a North Carolina Court.” It should be mentioned that Mr. Jones was a native of Rockingham county, and like the gentlemen named by the Star, lived along, or near, the dividing line between the States. The probabilities as to the lo- cation of the court scene cannot, with the present lights before us, be very strongly claimed by either one or the other of them, nor isit abstractly material except as a matter of history. It is enough that Mr. Jones is admitted to be the true author of the story as published tothe world for the last 50 years, whether he depicted what he actually witnessed, or formulated an old story float ing around the country. It was not neces- sary in his lifetime that he should “‘c/aim” what everybody conceded him ; but “honor bright” would have led toa denial if he were not entitled to it, > ae A New Method of Cultivating Cotton. The improvements made in the past few years in machinery for cleaning and gin- ning, bailing, spinoin and weaving cotton are fast driving the older and slower meth ods out of use.

That money was used to bribe and corrapt voters in the interest of R. T. Bennett. 4th, That the Poll Holders and Super- visors wsre assaulted and driven from the polls. 5th. That men were allewed to vote in Counties not their legal residence. 6th. That legally qualified voters were prevented and obstructed from voting for O. H. Dockery. in the interest of R. T. Bennett. ‘ 7th. That ballots. by design or other- wise, deposited for O. H. Dockery in dif- ferent boxes were thrown out in violation of the United States Statute on Elections. 8th. That in localities the ballot boxes were secreted antil a convenient and agreeable hour for counting the votes was determined on. Oth. ‘That the boxes were reopened af- ter sundown in vielation of Jaw. I will give you notice according to law of the time and place where this evidence will be taken, and the names of witnesses relied ou to prove the above grounds of contest. Very Respectfully, O. H. Dockery. CONTESTEE’S REPLY. Srate or Nortn CAROLINA, Anson County. Oliver H. Dockery, Contestant, vs. Risden T. Bennett, Conteslee. Answer of Contestee to notice. Pro- testing against the allegations in said no- tice, I object and say that said notice is so insufficient and defective that I need net deny or admit the allegation tlfereof fur the reasons, to wit: Said notice does not specify particularly the grounds apon which yoa rely, aud gives no reasga for failing to do &o. ; The allegations are only conclusions of law and geveral averments of wrong do- ing in some undefined portions of the State by unnamed election officials of pre- cincts not specified in unnamed counties or by persens not uamed or described, and iu places and by means not specified aud in violation of laws and the rights of others not designated. your vote was 29 instead of 79. 8 that all these votes shoald be counted for me, and that my majority in the State should be eight hundred and fifty-one in- stead of the number found by the Board of State Canvassers, and I will offer proof in support of this contention. I ehurge aud aver that yeu have made the whole~ sale charges of all kinds of etimes and jrregularities contaiaed iv your said Bo~ tice without specification of persons or places vot because you had reason jo be- lieve that any one of them had beeu com— mitted to your injury, but with the de- liberate purpose to evade the limitations of the Statute and to speculate upen my future discoveries of evidence, and so yuu bave made unlawful, vexatious and fraud- ulent use of the notice and process ‘au- thorized by the Statute, and the same; should be quashed aud dismissed. Rispen T. BENNETT. Feb. 7, 1883. Wadesboro, N. C. WirHpRAWN.—Since tho above letters were made public, Gen. Dockers bas dis- covered that the requireweuts of his neg- lected farm and other private interests, demand his presence at home. Aud cov- siderations of this kind, together with the fact thaf the House of the next Congress will be largely democratic, he feels con- strained to relinquish the coutest with Judge Bennett, who he still believes was elected by fraud and intimidatioo. His letter backing down is dated at Mangum, Feb. 7th, aud was designed to cover bis retreat. SO Tux Washington correspondent of the New York Sua says: “Gen. Grant, Gen, Sherman, Don Cameron, Gen. Beale, Senetor Jones of Nevada. and Senator Wade Hamp- ton have made up their minds that Gen. Jos. E. Johnston sir to be the next District Commissioner.” The four first-named waited on the Président in regard to it, and the prospect seems to be that the Pres- ident will send in his name to the Senate, the appointment to take effect after the 4th of March--which will obviate the difficulty at first suggested that Gen. Johnston had not been a resident of the District quite two years. The correspondent says that one of the quaintsst friendships in Washing- ton is that between Gens, Sherman and Johnston, and quotes the former as saying. “And whenI was pursuing Joe Jehnston sir, through Georgia, by George, Sir, he made me pursue him on his own tactics, Sir.” e nae eee er eS eT GREAT INDUGEMENT TO AN ENTERPRISING MAN who wishes te enibark in the mercantile business, by au old merchant with a built up trade, who wishes to retire. vassers by ad.error of addition ; that is, |" the throat and the lungs with choking mucos ; seven Bra Pills taken at night on an empty stomach, will restore the perspiration, break up the gold and purge away all the wa- tery secretions that should have passed off by the skin, Diphtheria, a family disease and a most dangerous one, is almost immediately tured by one or two doses of Bran ef Ps Pille, aided by a gargleof lime water. Rhumatism, which comes from too much acidity or too much alkalinity of the system, requires noth- ing but Brandreth’s Pills and a few good sweats to make a perfect cure.- It is marvelous how they purify the blood. After two doses, the effect is seen in brightness of the eyes and clearness of the skin. All pim- plee and eruptions vanish like magic under the influence of this purifying purgative. We cannot stop the march of time with any medi- ‘cine: but Brandreth’s Pills will remove the excessive Jime from the system and prevent grey hair. They improve the sight and tone up the human body, so that the old man’s eyes will be undimmed and his natural force una- bated even after seventy years. Best in the World. Brandreth’s Pills have stood the test of forty- five years of use by the Amertcan people. They are entirely Vegetable. They are absolutely vAiversal, for there is no disease they will not cure, iftakenintime. They are safe for infants and adults. They aim to ac- complish three things : first, to purify the blood; second, to cleanse and regulate the stomach and bowels; third, to stimulate the kidneys and liver and purge away the ashes of the sys- tem and diseased matters of the body. By pur- ging wi.h these. Pills constantly, a new body can be built up from fresh, healthy food in a few mopths, In this way, gout and rheuma- lism, ulcers and fever sores can be eradicated in a few weeks. The worst cases of dyspepsia and costiveness can be cured by taking one or two pills eyery night fora month. In casesof twenty years’ standicg, gentlemen have been cured by taking one pillia night for a year. Brandreth’s Pills give t@the human body, no matter how worn or decayed, the recuperative powers of youth. In their action, they imitate the rapid changes of the youthful body. We all wigh to die of old age, “A hundred sears is the natural limit of life, which can only be reached by purging and purification. In general debility, nervous tremor, and mental depression Brandreth’s Pills havea marvelous efiect. They have won the confi- dence of millions ia all parts of the civilized world, Constitutions shaken by long residence in unwholesome climates, ur by sedentary hab. its, are wonderfully renovated by a course of this extraordinary medicine, which, powerful as is its action on the whole system, is perfect- ly harmless to the tenderestframe.

Y., and used generally in this State for preparing lands and put- ting in small grain and harrowing brvad- cast over corn and oats in the spring, has been found to work just as successfully when used to run over yonng cotton, and our largest planters claim they can save the cost and labor of two hand-hoeings and two plowings by its use in cotton, which is no small item in the expense of makiug the crop. The saving is fully 2cents per pound. The directions for using the harrow io cotton are as follows: Ist. Remove the old cotton stalks and other trash. 2d. Prepare the fand thoroughly, using the harrow after breaking. : 3d. Plant fully two inches below the sur- face of the ground. 4th, When the cotton begins to come through, instead of “boarding off,” put on the harrow and go directly across the rows. 5th. After five or six days harrow in the opposite direction, and repeat in another six days. This will keep all the grass down, both in the middle and on the rows, and not injure the stands. Finish with the “sweeps.” The work is said to be very rapid, as a boy and team can cover from 12 to 20 acres per day, according to the size of harrow used. Thus the only use for the hoe is for “chopping to a stand,” which can be done very quickly, as the ground is free from weeds. , Oe Legislature. Senatge.—Feb. 6.

I most cordially give’ my testimony as to the great value of Brandreth’s Pills, verified by eighteen years’. experience in wy mother’s (the late Mre, Dr. Geo M Browne) family and my own. They were at first taken as a “for- lorn hope,” for the cure of a very severe case of Neuralgia of several years’ standing, the patient being completely prostrated by disease and the excessive use of opinm, taken to dead- en the pain ‘by advice of her physician.) The effects were almost magical; in one month she was able to be up and walk around freely, and the disease has never returned. My mother was also cured of an attack of Inflamatory Khumatism by the same means. About six years ago [ was taken with what appeared to be a bad cold, but in a short time, symioms of confluent Small Pox were developed, causing us much alarm. J determined to try Brand. reth’s Pills as a remedy, and their efficacy was soon apparent. J was well much sooner than was expected, and without receiving «single mark or trouble of any kind. Jt is my firm belief, judging from the severity of the case, that had I gone through the regular routine prescribed by physicians, I should have died. I know of many other instances of the valne of Brandreth’s Pills in disease and sickness, which I will be happy ‘o give to any one who willapply to me. Mrs. E. St. Joun. —E USED THIRTY YZABS.

There are several examples in the State of surprising success, the secret of which might be profitably to studied. Charlotte has the largest Graded School in the State, numbering over 600 daily attendants, and various accounts of its exercises represent it as very successtul in its work, There may be nothing lacking in our school : every community has its fault finders and it is easy to complain ; bat it is the prov- ince of the Board of Commissioners to see that no just cause exists for such persons to harm an institution designed to perform so important a work as this. ————__ 0 ——_——_ First Grape Teacners’ RepuceD IN SALARY.—The action of the County Com- missioners in reducing the pay of first grade teachers from $40 to $30 a month, is likely to resalt in the abolishment, or disorganization of all the schools tanght by teachers of this grade. The action has met the hearty disapproval of the teachers in the county. They in conven- tion assembled, on Saturday last, passed the resolutions presented in another col- ump. . The Commissioners had, or fancied they had, reasens, for reducing the pay. What these reasons were,the public is not informed. They may fear that the amount appropriated will not ran the schools the required four months; and that, by reducing the pay of the best teachers in the county, they can save the trouble (!) of levyiug a special tax, pro- vided for by Jaw, to meet just suclr cases, Is this true economy? Is it economy at all? Oris it that kind of cowardice which savors of official self-preservation, superinduced by the fear that an ignorant commonwealth would require the sacrifi- cial guillotine to relieve certain public servants (!) of their arduous labors. Hence, the ecenomic act. Is the reduc- tion of the already small pay of the best fitted, and most thoroughly prepared ed- ucators of the county economy ? Two things, common sense, and the spirit of the Law, say not. It is an outrageous, wanton waste, of both the people's money, aud the childrens’ more precious time. The advantages of the farmer’s child for attaining even a common school educa- tion are meagre iudeed. Four months ia a year! Winter months—threugh rain and snow, and bitter cold they go; brav- ing, in their pursuit of knowledge, weath- er through which stouter frames and hearts are loath to ventare! This action of the board is a stumbling-block in the child’s progress. They must receive their pittance of knowledge from 2ud and 3rd grade teachers—the cheapest class of in- atructors. ‘This economy is the kind that robs the next generation ef its quota of cultivated workers and thinkers, and puts & premium oo the half-prepared, ivexpe- rienced teachers ef this. Yet our com- missioners are good, hovest men; con- scientious iv their endeavor to do for the the wajority, the most good. But who can say them thoughtful in this? The Coanty Superintendent of Public Instruc- tion is in despair. He says all the best teachers in the county will leave. He has written to the Legislator of this coun- ty, now in Raleigh, pleading in behalf the people for competent teachers. It will be a aad day for Rowan, when her thorough trained educatora are forced to seek employ ment elsewhere. This is one side of the question. One of the Commissioners told the Reporter that he had been congratulated by tax- popular educatien, then do away with all the school tax.

Mr. Walker went to the house of ane David Fraley, of Harris Township, to col- lect some back tax due on brandy which Fraley had distilled last autum. Not find- ing Fraley at his house, he drove down to the stillhouse, and hitehing his horse, went in. No one was there, but on leaving the house, he saw a man lying on his back on the hill above the house, with a gun across his body. Mr. Walker approached him, but when within thirty yards the man jumped up and poin-ed his gun as if to fire upon him. Mr. Walker exclaimed “Don’t shoot !” but’seeing that Fraley intended tc fire, the gun was discharged and five rifle bul- lets entered his body. His horse, naturally a fractious animal, commenced rearing and struggling where he was tied, but Mr. Walker, after some difficulty, loosed him, and crawling into the buggy, directed him into the road.

Their faces, grotesquely lit by the mingled fire and lamplight, showed a fierce hunter’s look that made Bob fairly sick. He did not dare look at them long lest the magnetism of his gaze should attract their involuntary attention. Nay he never made a frantic effort not to think of them, from the fear that some physical current might have the same effect—for he believed strongly, though vaguely, in the mysteries of animal magnetism, and a notion that a person sensitive to such influences might detect the presence of his victim by the very terror the latter had of him. ; He could scarcely believe his fortune, when a moment later, the two brothers passed again beneath him back into the From there they went on through the beyond, and the sound of their foot- rhaps five minutes after, they returned —that is, as far as the dining room—and Bob gathered from their conversation that they had found one of the fastenings in the basement in a condition indicating that the burglar might have escaped there. rs. McLane and Angie, having satisfied themselves that the coast was clear, interesting, as it turned on himself. He heard Mrs. McLane saying : “He must be a hard sleeper, for I knock- ed sev. rul times on his door.” Then one of the brothers grunted some- thing contemptuously, and he heard Angie’s “Are you sure you looked everywhere in the library?’ was Mrs. Mcl.ane’s next ' qnestion, at which a cold sweat started out jon Bub’s face. He had just begun to feel quite comfortable, John and George declared, however, that they had looked everywhere. “Did you look under the sofa?” “Behind the window curtains?” “In the dark corner by the book case ?” asked the ladies in succession. Ingenious cruelty of Fate! Even Angie was racking her brain to guess his hiding place. What if it should be she who hit upon it! Bob drew a breath of relief as Jwhn re- plied, with some asperity, to all these questions, that he had told them once that they had looked everywhere. This silenced them, but Angie said, a moment later : “Just let me ask one more question: Did you look on top of the bookcase ?”’ It seemed to Bob that he died then, and came to life again to hear Juhn reply, con- temptuously : “Over the bookcase? There’s no room there; and, if there were, nobody but a moukey could get up.” “There’s room enough,” persisted Angie, “and I have often noticed, when sitting in the library, what a nice hiding place it would be. What if he should be up there now, and hear what I’m saying !’*she added, in an agitated whisper. “Nonseuse |” said John. “Well, there’s no harm in looking, any- way,” said Mrs, McLane, “Come anet then,” grumbled John. “You shall see for yourselves.” At this Bob shut his eyes and turned his face to the wall. The ostrich instinct is the human instinct of despair. He tried to fly away from himsetf, and leave his body there as a direlict. The effort was desper- ate, and seemed almost successful. But he could not quite seyer the connection, tho’ his soul appeared to be hovering over his body, only attached by a single thread—but a thread which, alas! would not break. A moment after they all passed through the door directly beneath him, and going clear to the other end of the library, stood on tiptoe, and peered at his hiding place. There seemed to be eyes in his back which felt their scrutiny. But the lamp they carried did not suffice to bring out his figure clearly. “Dm sure I see something,” said Angie, getting up on a chair. “It’s only the shadow of the firelight,” replied Jobn, “Light the gas and let us make sure,” said Mrs. MeJ ane. George stood up on a chair under the chandelier, and lighted one of the burners. An inarticulate ejaculation fell from every mouth. A human figure was dis- tinctly visible, reclining along the top of the bookcase, with his face toward the wall. The ladies would have forthwith ran away but for the fact that one door of the room was dircctly beneath the bookcase, and the other close to it. Upon Boub’s paralyzed senses fell the sharp words of Jobui: “Wev’e got you. Get down!” He did not move, but at the summons his soul, with inexpressibie reluctance and dis- gust, began to return from. the end of its floating thread, and reinhabit the quarters for which it could not quite shake off re- sponsibility. » “Get up, or I'll shoot !” said George. “Oh, don’t shout him!’ said Mrs. McLane, while Bob, still motionless, dimly hoped he would. “Get up!” reiterated Joho; and he did et up. is own will was inactive, and Saha s was the force that moved his mus- cles. He turned around and sat up, bis legs dangling over the edge of the bookcase, and his wet, white, wretched face blankly directed toward the group- -a most pitiable figure. “Jump down,” said John; “and if you try to escape, you will get shot !” Bob let himself drop without regard to how he was to alight, and in consequence was severely bruised against a chair and the edges of the bookcase. He stood facing the group. His eyes mechanically sought Augie’s. What was his surprise not to perceive in her expres~ ~iun ot mingkd curiosity and fright the slightest sign of recognition! A glance showed him that it was the sume with the uthers. John and George evidently sup- pozed that they were dealing with au ordi- —— SS identity. fis wig! He had forgotten all about. That explained this singular de- meanor. The bald man in stockings, trousers, and shirt, caught hiding in the library after an attempt on the silver, quite naturally failed to recall to their minds the a or rather foppish attire and luxuriant locks, who le them goodnight a few hours previous. As this fact and its explanation broke upon Bob’s mind he felt an immense sense of re- lief, inatantly followed by a more poignant perception of the inextricable ity and cruel absurdity of his position. He had little time to think it over and had little time to determine his best courae. John stepped forward, with the point of his cane sword motioned him into a corner, thus leaving the way clear to the Isdies, who at once hurried into the dining room, mene glances of fear and aversion upon Bob as they passed. Angie paused at the doorway and asked : “What are you going to do with the dreadful man ?” Bob even then was able to notice that he had never seen her so ravishingly beautiful as now, with her golden hair falling over her charming deshabille, while her eyes scintillated with excitement. She would have blushed to have been seen by him in such an undress toilet, but, with an odd feeling of being double, he perceived that she now re ed him as she would have an animal. “George and I will attend tohim. You had better go to bed,” replied John to her ‘questiou ; and then he sent George after some chord, meanwhile quietly standing in front of Bob with cocked revolver. Had he scanned his prisoner closely, he might have detected something familiar in his linia- ments, but in careless contempt he took him in with a sweeping glance as an av- erage burglar, whose identity was a ques- tion for the police. Bob had not uttered a word. In_ the complex falsity of his position he could not indeed muster presence of mind to resolve on any course, bes regarded with a kind of fatuity the extraordinary direction events were taking. But when George returned with the rope, and ordered him to put his hands behind him, be said, in a tone so quiet that it surprised himself: “Hold on, Mr. McLane: this joke has gone far enough. I am Robert Withers, at your service, and respectfully decline to be considered in the light of ao burglar any further.” George’s jaw dropped with astonishment, and Jolin was scarcely less taken aback. “Blamed if he isn’t!” ejaculated the for- mer, after a moment, in a tone of incredu- lous conviction, as he recognized at once the voice and now the features of Bob ; “but where’s your hair?” Bob blushed painfully. “I wear a wig,” he replied, “and to-cigm, coming down stairs after you were all a to get 7 ring which I had left on the table here, I did not fully dress. Going back, it was my luck to stumble over that cursed stand in the other room !” ra But what did you hide for ?” asked Juhn arply. . Bob just touched his bald head and replied : ‘I heard the ladics up.” John pitched the revolver on the sofa and stood pensive. Finally he said, with a sardonic smile: “Mr. Withers, how do you pro to get outofthis? Shall I callin the ladies and let you explain? They will presently be wanting to know what we have done with the burglar.” Bub made no reply. Already, bitterly humiliated, he saw no way of avoiding in- definite and yet bitterer humiliations. Jobn thought a few minutes longer, and then suid : “Take a seat, Mr. proposition to make.” They sat down. “You are aware,” continued John, in the calmest, most impertorbable tone, “that I don’t like. your match with my sister, and haye done my besr to break it off. But she is an obstivate girl, and I had pretty much given up hope. These peculiar circum- stances have most unexpectedly put you in my power, and I propose to make the most of ny advantage. If I were to call in Angie now and introduce you, I feel toler- ably well ussured that it would be the end of your matrimonial expectations in that quarter. Still you shall have a chance for yvur life, I will call herif you say sv?” And John rose. “For God's sake don’t let her come in here !” groaned Bob in abject pain. John grinned, stepped toward the door, and then turned eek irresulufely, mutter- in . Withers; I have a g: “Wonder if it wouldn’t be the shortest way out of it tocall her down?” Then, with a saving reflection on the uncertainty of a woman’s course under any given set of circumstances, be came back and reseated himself opposite Bob, anc said, with a sar- donic smile: “So you don’t like my little suggestion of giying you one more chance with Angie? On the whole, I think you are wise. ‘The other alternative is to leave the Louse at once, relinquish your engage me?.t, and nevor see ber again, Make your choice and as quickly as coavenient, dor I am getting sleepy,” and he yawned lazily. Bob sat in an attitude of utter dejection, sturing at the ashes of the fire, which an hour ago had blazed as brightly as his own love lit fancies. He was completely de- moralized, and almost incapable of thought or resolution. There was something 80 pitiable in Bob’s odd-looking, dismantled tigure, half-dressed, with that queer, white, bulbous head, dimmed, black eyes, and ex- ression of crushing shame and defeat, that t would have moved almost any one to compassion, It did stir compunctions in George, but there was no mergy iu John’s still, blue eyes. Two or three minutes pussed in a silence so complete that even the almost noiseless movement of the French clock en the mantel, was distinctly audible. - “You are taking altogether too muct time to make up your mind, Mr. Withers. Jt will make shorter work to call Angie,” finally said John, sharply, his patience uite atan end. He rose aid stepped to the door as he spoke. “It wou’t be necessary, Juhn-—here I am !” said a clear voice, with a sharp ring in it that the family had learned to know meant decisive work, and Angic stepped into the room, her blue eyes flashing with indignation and her lip trembling with scorn, beautiful as a goddess, Bob started up from hts abject attitude and stood facing ber with the look of a man waiting his doom frem the fir squad. As he stood there, drawn up to tull height, with just a touch of a softening the defiance of his expression was a manly face and figure in spite of all. But her brothers received Angie’s first at- nary burgiar, and the others wete epparen - iy quite as devoid of suspicion as to his tention. “You mean, cowardly fellows !” she said, of you, Mr. Withers,” Bob, with a softer but 7 Did you think, sir, that beauty? 1 don’t care if you 1 wigs, or none.

Then John said : “T don’t ask your pardon, i because I mean to succeed, and P’m soiry I didn’t. But I know when I’m beaten, aud you need expect no further opposition from me, Let’s go to bed.” aS et into A Cheerful Home, A single bitter word may disquiet an en tire family for a whole.day. One surly glance casts a gloom over the household | while a smile, like a gleam of sunshine, may light up the darkest and wearest hours. Like unexpected flowers which spring up along our path, full of freshness fragrance and beauty, so the kind words, and gentle acts, and sweet dispositions make glad the home where Christ's peace and blessing dwell. No matter how humble the abode if it be thus garuished with grace, and sweetened with kindness and smiles, the heart will turn longingly toward it from all the tumults of the world; and home, if it be ever so homely, will be the dearest spot un- der the circuit of the sun. And the influences of home perpetuate themsclves. The gentle grace of the mother lives in her daughters long after her head is pillowed in the dust of death, and fath- erly kindness finds its echo in the nebility and courtesy of sons who come to wear his mantle and to fill his place; while, on the other band, from an unhappy, mis-governed and disordered home, go forth persons who shall make other homes miserabie, and per- petuate the sourness, and sadness, the con- tentions, the strifes, the railing,which have made their own early lives so wretched and distorted. . Toward the cheerful home the children gather “as clouds, and as dover to their windows;” while from the home which is the abode of discontent and strife and trouble, they fly forth as vulters to rend their prey. —————- — oe A correspondent of the Mining and Secien- tific Press, speaking of the famous turquoise mine near Santa Fe, perhaps the most ex- tensive and largest-worked mine of that mineral on the Globe, says it had evidently been worked for centuries before the Spanards made their appearance in Mexico, “The irregular opening in the mountain, made by the ancient Aztecs in their search for this precious mineral, are called wonder eaves. When the Spaniards came they took possession of the mine ani worked it for nearly a century with a large force of natives. It is said that an extensive cave in this mine, which killed a great number of natives, was the immediate cause of the uprising in 16380, which drove the Span- iards from the country. The Washington Post says: Editors who make the greatest efforts of their lives in abusing the ‘daddy’ dollars, are not unlike- ly to see the time when they will rejoice that we have many millions of them on hand.

Children hunger perpetually for new ideas. They will learn with pleasure from the lips of parents what they deem drudgery to study in books; and if they have the misfortune to be deprived of many educational advan- tages, they will grow up intelligent if they enjoy in childhood the privi- lege of listening daily to the conver- gation of intelligent people. We some- times see parents who are the life of every company which they en‘er, dull silent, aud uhinteresting at chome among their children. If they have not mental activity and mental stores sufficient for both let them first use what they have for their own house- hold. A silent home isa dull place fur young people, a place from which they will escape if they om.

The aim of the State should be to make the common schools aa good as it is possi- ble to make them. To this enda long | term is indispensable. To this end thor- oughly qualified teachers are demanded. The former cannot be secured ‘except by ample fands. The latter cannot be se- cared without ample fanda. As far as North Carolina ie concerned there will be no appreciable increase of the fund. The people are already bur- dened with taxation of various kinds. The party that would take the initiative jn increasing the taxes of the State for any purpose would have an accoant to render to the people and the election would give the result. So better schools —that is public schools with loug terms and the best teachers are are not within reach uuder the present system. Mr. Dorth seeks to remedy this, as we un- derstand it, by allowing the two races to extend the terma of schooling in the va- rious districts if they prefer to do so by a voluntary contribution on their purt. Not that they must do sd, but that they can do so if they are willing to place upon themselves the additional burdep—to pay more out of their own pockits for more and better schovling. In North Carolina, we rejoice to know, the academies have not been set aside, bat they are even more bumerous than ever before. There are private schools in North Carolina that will compare with the bestin any State. Woe hope they will be always maintained liberally for tu them we must continue to look for the scholars who are to fill all of the impor- tant places in our State in the years to come-in the pulpit, at the bar, in the halls of legislation, in the civic offices, jn the colleges and academies and nor schools and graded schools, in the ja cial tribunals, in the professions gen ally, ineluding the editorial chairs thet ought te be as important as any.—Wil. Evidence of the extent of the business done by Fleming and Meriam and other professional grain brokers at Chicago, the delivery of money letters to whom was stopped by the Postal Department a few days ago, accumalates from day te day. It appeays they not only recieved money from farmors, towns and villages all over the country, but also from Canada, and even from some points in England and Scotland. The sums transmitted to them fro investment in grain fatures are esti- mated to reach into the millions, and it is intimated that certain respected and highly concerned persons joived hand with the recognized gambling element in working the scheme. ~~ —__ — WasHinaton; Feb. 15.—Representative King yesterday addressed a letter to the chief signal officer requesting information asto danger of a flood in the lower Missis- sippi with a view of basing upon that in- formation any necessary Congressinal action.

Some days ago a young married woman was taken ill, and her hus band Juid it to the fact that she is bewitched. Anxious ‘to discover the guilty party, he procured q new horseshoe from a black g nith shop, frepared it in some way to act like acharm and then threw it into the fire. Not long afterward he heard one of his nigh- bors complanin ofa burning pain in her chest and believed that he had found the witch To make sure he placed some salt under the carpet at the doorway of his house and awaited the result. Several neighbors came to see-the sick woman and crossed the threshold without difficulty, but the suspec- ted one stumbled in passing over it. He intends to try farther experiments reported to be effective in discovering witches. , —— —~—- Washington Post: Black slavery is dead, but whity slavery still lives.

Can the iron works of the North hold their own against Alabama ?— Philadelphia Record. [It is pretty certain that iron can be made in several other States of the Squth, notably in Virginia and Tennessee, as cheaply asin Alabama, There are localities in Virginia where the best iron-ore, coal suitable for coking, lime stone, water-power, and what- ever else may be useful in the manufacture of iron,are found in almost immediate con-' tact with each other. All the conditions for the most economical manufacture exist, and only good management would be need- ed to get the cheapest product possible. } In the last number of Bradstreet's Journal, New York, than which there is no better authority on any business question, we find the following unqualified admission that the iron manufacture must come South : “It is plain that a revolution is going on in the iron industry of the United States, in the course of which the manufacture must be given up at unfavorable points owing tu the necessity of seeking the point of cheap est production. This point js in the south- ern States.” ; The people of the South should realize the situation and rise to the occasion.

ALLcock's PLAsSTERS have been of such great service to me and mine that I feel it a duty to state the facts, as briefly as possi- ble, to induce others te usethem. My wife for many years was confined te her bed, suffering from spinal disease. After spend- ing a thousand dollars in vain effort to get cured, she applied three ALLcock’s PLas— TERS to the spival column, one above the other. Ina few days all pain left her. She applied fresh plasters every two weeks and in the course of two months she com- pletely recovered her health. At first she could hardly walk across the ruem; each day she walked a little further, and now she is able to walk five miles without fa- tigne. She still occasionally applies the plasters to her back, but she has been per- fectly well for upward of a year. LEWIS L. HAMMEL.

No family should be without ALLcock’s Porous PLastTers; their healing powers are wonderful and their efficacy far-reaching and lasting. For years past I have seen and known them to cure and relieve the most obstinate and distressing cases of rheumatism, kidney complaint, bronchitis, neuralgia, lumbago, inflamation of the lungs and ¢hrogt, paralysis, astlima, spinal weakness, gn coughs and colds. In my own case they afforded me almost instant and permanent relief. My friends consider them an itfvdluable and speedy remedy tv. all kinds of aches and pains, They are a blessing in disguise; and no wife or mother should be without them if she values ber peace and comfort and freedom from ner- vous exhaustion and other ailments. As a strengthening plaster, also for bagkaches and weakness, they have no equal. I have never yet found a plaster so efficacious and stimulating, or to give so much general sat- isfaction.

The attention of our readers is again called to this company located within our borders, for the purpose of buying and manipulating the sulpharetted gold, sil- ver and copper ores of the State. The Virginia Enterprise says that “a properly and honestly cenducted sampling mill does equal justice to both buyer and seller. By means of properly taken and assayed sampless both parties knew exactly what they are bargaining about. Not a few min- ers who have sent assay ores to Cualifor- nia, to be sampled and sold, have fared so badly that they are inclined to look upon sampling mills asso many traps for swindling henest labor out of ita just reward. However, there are swinders as well as honest men in all kinds of busi- ness. In Colorado and Utah the greater part of the ore m.ned is sold by sample.” This is also true in most of the mining districts of the west. It is an evidence of honest legitimate mining. The facts are mentioned in connection with the South— ern Ore Company, of Wilmington, N. C., for the purpose of calling to the attention of miners and mine owners the fact that this company has been organized and is being run for the purpose of helping the great work of miuing in this State. They buy and pay cash for ores. They have secured reduced freight rates, and are prepared in every way to manipulate the ores 80 as to give the miner the best re- turns. Parties desiring to send ores fur assay, may leave them at this office—we will guarantee acurate assays free of charge. Send iu your ores and get valu- ation. This proposition can only be made to parties intending to ship ores. ee Thomasville Notes, It is reported that Mr. Sam’l Norris will soon bave a force of hands at work at the Jones or Key stone mine.

Our Senator, Mr. Watson, has intro- duced a bill to be entitled, an act pro- viding an alternative method of con- structing and keeping in repair the public roads. ‘The act upon its ratitication is only to apply to Forsyth county, unless the Board of Justices of the Peace of any county in the State see proper to adopt this alternative method, The county is to be divided into road districts. ch township is to compose such a district. A snpervisor for each district is appoint- ed by the Commissioners. This super- visor divides and lays out his roads into sections not exceeding two miles in length. These sectious are sold to the lowest bidder. The act provides that all able bodied wen shall work on their sec- tion three days in the year, or in lieu thereof pay two dollars and a half to the supervisor. It then becomes the duty of this supervisor to ascertain the amount of money still necessary for the repair of the roads and report the same te the County Commissioners, who shall levy a tax of hot exceeding seyen cents on the ove handred dollars valuation, and a ig ordinarily ® man of good pyctical Sense, and one of the beat carpenters in the State, poll tax net exceeding 24 cents—this tax net being levied apon those who are j otherwise exempt.— Winston Leader. oe - on house to oreven from room to ‘are expected at any time to quit the th of earth. The death of such an one occa- sions no surprise generally, but is regarded as a matter of course. But it is not always so: now and then we see a striking excep-| tion to the rulein the persons of individuals to whom the weight of years seems scarcely- felt; but when we add to that, continued vigor of body—the light and confident step—and the graces, mental and physical, of mid- life, we involuntarily ussent to his contin- uance with no more probabilities against him than against those in the prime of life, Such was the case with Mr. White. His was a rare example of retained powers of hody and mind far beyond the period when most men, if living at all, are bereft of them. Our citizens who saw him in our midst a few years ago, remember with pleasure his agreeable and graceful intercourse, as that of one in full sympathy with the people and their interests. Few men are better en- dowed than washe. Fewer still ever la- bered' more assiduously on subjects not personal but public. He was a liberal man in the largest sense of the term. He was a citizen to be proud of, a gentleman to be respected, and a friend and Christian to be loved, Men might say of such an one, live for ever, for the world is better by their continuance, The senior editor of this paper cannot do less than bear this testimony to one whom he early learned to reverence, and whose life for 57 years has been well known to him. Few now remain who knew the de~ ceased as a citizen of Salisbury, but those few will no less mourn the departure of one 8o intimately endeared to them. From the Utica Morning Iterald. SKETCH OF THIS PIONEER AND DIPLOMAT- IST—HIS CONNECTION WITH JOURNALISM, Hon. Philo White, so long one of the oldest residents of Whitestown, died at his home there Thursday evening, 15th inst. He has not been in good health for some time, and was 85 years old. He was born in Whitestown, June 23, 1796, the son of a man of the same name, and was grandson of Hugh White, the tounder of the place. The family was of Connecticut and origi- nally English stock. Philo received his education at home in Canada and in the seminary at Utica. Upon leaving school he became a printer on the Columbian Guzette, and while learning the trade, and subse- quently, wrote to some extent on the paper. After a brief cunnection with another newspaper in Manlius, N. Y., he went to Salisbury, N. C., and in 1820 became the editor and owner of the Western Carolinian, which he conducted forten years. His health having become impaired, he secured an appointment as United States navy agent on the Pacifie coast. His duties were mainly as a purchasing agent, and extended over a large territory, on our own coast and southward to the coast of South America. He held the place for four years, and then§returning to North Carolina, took up his residence at Raleigh, and establish ‘d the North Carolina Standard, which was subsequently made the State paper, and i's owner the State printer. His paper was democratic in politics, and commanded considerabie influence, its editor being one of the party managers in that State His health, however, soon again failed him, air. Hesccured a place as pay-master in the navy, and spent nearly seven years in that service, cruising much of the time with squadrons of the Atlantic and. Pacific oceans, and in the Guif of Mexico. He then detérnrined to settle in the northwest, and soon after took up his permanent resi- dence where Racine now stands, in Wis consin. The territory of Wisconsin was not divided off from Michigan until after his settlement there, so that be was con- nected with ‘all the early history of that State. Mr. White bought lead also in Milwaukee, and subsequently erected the United States Hotel block there, making it what was theu the finest buildiog in the place. Following Mr. White’s advice, Solomon Juneau, one of the real estate kings of the new city, decided to start a newspaper, to champion, in accordance with the notions of the day, Mr. Juneau’s real estate interests. Mr. White purchased an outtit in New York, and was for a few months the editor of the paper. This was the progenitor of the Sentinel, which in combination with another newpaper is now one of the leading dailies of the city. Io 1846 Mr. White was elected to the territo- rial council which corresponds to a State senate, and served from 1847 to 1848. When the territory became a State Mr. White served in its Senate, and with great credit to himself and his constituents. He was on the committee of education, schools, aad school lands, and his measures were influ- ential in estublishing a State system of in- struction and in founding it upon a broad and sound basis. His services in introdu- cing plank roads to the State were greatly valued, as they were a great step on any- thing which had before been in use. fn the territorial Legislature he had strongly opposed the divorce acts which he revarded us loose and demoralizing. Mr. White was one of the founders of Kacine College, an educational institution managed by the diocese of the Protestant Episcopal Church. He was one of its trustees. In 1856 the in- stitution conferred upon him the degree of doctor of laws. With the militia system of the newly organized State Mr. White had likewise an honorable connection, and was made a brigadier general in that service. In 1849 Mr. White was appointed United States consul! to the free Hanseatic cities of Hamburg, Lubec and Altona.” This was during the progress of the Sleswick- Holstein war, so that the post was of more moment than during a time of peace. His duties Mr. White discharged with diligence and tact. In 1853 he received the appvint- ment from President Pierce of minister to Ecuador, and in the autumn of the year he went to Quito with his family. There were then many claims of citizens of the United States against the government, and acting under instructions from the depart- ment, Mr. White set himself to learning the details of what had been done and what remained to do, and pressed the rightful claims with vigor. - After five years of ser- vice at this poiut, Mr. White returned to this country, and in 1859 he took up his residence in his native piace, where he has since passed a green old age. Mr. White had by no means lost his in- terest in Whitestown during his protracted absence from it. He felt an interest in preserving records of its history, and haying it retain its place as a beautiful and pros- perous village. In 1869 and 187) he was the treasurer of the yillage, and he has drafted petitions on subjects ot public in, terest—one addressed to the trustees of the ial } rth, and | .

He was a man of temperance and regularity of life, and his vigor was retained into old age in a remarkable way. Por the Watchman. Reduction of Teachers’ Salaries. Epiror WatcuMay: I but express the sentiments of the friends of -edacation in Rowan County, when I say that the action of the County Board of Educativa, in redu- cing the already small pay of Ist. grade teachers, is greatly to be deplored, hat motives actuated them in making this order, when the teachers have all made their contracts with the several committees for the present school rene, and most of the schools taught, I shall not attempt to con- jecthre. Perhaps, if they did not deem the ‘wisdom (?) on which their motives were founded, too prufound for poor mortala,not clothed with such omnipotent authorit# as they assume, (!) the County Board of Edu cation might enlighten the public on this point. The prime requisite for the success of the public schools, is to secure good teachers ; teachers who have taken some pains to prepare themselves for their important daties. And it may beelaid down as a rule with few exceptions, that where there is a ood teacher, there is a flourishing school. -urents feel that they have value received for the money expended and supplement short terms of free school by subscription. But this action of the Board of Education will force good and competent teachers to seek other employment. They can not afford to teach for less than they cam make in other lines of business. And the com- mittees will have to employ 2d and 3d grade teachers who have no inducements to prepare themselves for their profession. Is this for the best interests of education ? Is it not “penny wise and pound foolish ?” Is it not wasting the public money? Ifthe honorable Board ef Education had a blood- ed colt to be trained, does any one believe they would employ, for that purpose,,a mcre noyice, or person who was not thor- oughly skilled in his business? And yet, they force the school committees to employ as trainers of the immortal minds of the children of Rowan, on/y such pérsons whose services may be had for the pitiful sum of thirty dollars | Alas, that any county in the Old North State, so sadly in need of good schools, should be forced to take such a bacRward step ! H. —~——- ~——————- - For the Watchman. Salisbury Tobacco Market. Mr Eprror: As wuch as I dislike to write for the public, still I feel the import- ance of my subject to such an extent as to overcome all objections. For mnvy yearsave farmers felt the me- cessity of an active, live cotton market, and we uttered long and loud complaints against our county town for being bebind her more southern neighbors; - finally this objection was removed by the energies of Messrs. Ross and Gaskill mainly, and the prices for the five preceding seasons have been equal to Charlotte or Raleigh, as the writer knows from his own knowledge, having received those markets through daily papers from one or the other of the above named cities. In 1881 we all planted our largest crop of cotton with a reduction of every other crop. I should not neglect to say that my section of the county has always raised some tobac- co each and every year, and in 1881 we planted our usual crop of tobacco, or as nearly so as we could. We all remember well what kind of a season we had. Corn, cotton, tobacco, and all cultivated crops suffered to such an extent as to mark it asa vear of failure. We realized long before gathering time that as to yield our crops were failures, but we hoped to find some compensation in enhanced prices, but as to cotton we were sadly disappointed, but as to tobacco we were not The few whu madea little bad tobacco realized fine prices. One of my immediate neighbors averaged over $35 per hundred for his-whole crop. Every- thing was high except cotton, and too many of us had canes largely on it. Now this experience had for the time asalatary effect, and one of the most wholesome is the reduc- tion of the cotton crop, and the increase of tobaccu and grain. What we need, and what I began this paper for was to say something to help make a good tobacco marke. iu Salisbury. Many farmers bave pronounced in advance that the Undertaking to establish such in Salisbury world prove a failure, and they are dojeg what,they can to make their predictions good.;. Are they acting wisely? Does any farmer who fails todo allin his power to belp-this in- fant enterpsise in our town, disgharge the duties of a citizen intelligently? Does it ay us to build up Winston to the great and asting injary of home folks? Shall we join the strong of that town in their efforts to break down the weak of Salisbury? I say not. Apart from the advantages to those who grow tobacco, a great copnty towns of immense importance to every farmer in that county who raises anything tosell. A home market for everything raised is of incalcula- ble advantages to the seller, and nothing can help us so much as our help to make Salisbury a tobacco town. Farmers ought to know that unless they show a disposition to encourage this thing it is impossible to proceed. If Mr. Kluttz invites bayers to come to his warehouse to buy tobacco, they must know that there is a sufficiency of it on the market to justify them in paying board and losing time from other markets. Thus one of the very first requisites of suc- cess is a fair disposition on our part to make jt such, There are two things apparent to co. First, that it must be sold on the ware- house floor, and secondly, that the factory must be near by. Unless we sustain a mar- ket here, manufacturers must go where there is one, aod if Salisbury maintains herseifin this part of the business, then factories will be greatly multiplied among us, and every article of the farm will have an increased demand. town in reference to clearing and geeeg the cemetery, in which many distinguish If all the tobacco raised in this county, A. ilo White married Nancy |. to every pbserving man interested in tobac- Sans come to her, and the consuming classes will | Bees. with what is brought from others, was 80 d/ Wheat.......----+++ unwilling to sabmit to the reduction sup- plement the pay by private su and in that way keep up the It is better todo this thaa to prejudge the action of the Commissioners, and wound them | by harsh epithets, and all without fully understanding the facts u which their action was based.

To hear thear talk one would su that no such outrage was ever before attemp- ted to be practiced an alreat u overburdened class uf veople as this propasition requiring them to work eight hoarse a day, less the half hour or lrotir récess at noon, It was the neral topic of ‘conversation about ithe Cupital to-day, aud it was easy to see that the clerks, male and female iad a lobby of their friends on hand to defeat the measure. As it was pro- posed to pass the bil) under a saspen- sion of the rules; many of their friends discouraged the idea of mak- ing any fight in the House, but said they would assist in getting the Sen- ate to strike the provision from the bill. A handsome -and elegantly dressed lady who sat near me fora while was so vehemeut in her debun- ciation of the committee for putting such a provision in the bill that 1 ventured to ask her if she was in the ewployment of the Government. She rather disdainfully replied that she was not, bat that her husband wis. When, at her request, I pointed out Mr. Clannon, who reported the bill, she was pretty severe on him, aud said the clerks would see that he is uever elected to Congress aguin. Here we see one of the great evils resulting from a loug ascendency of one political party. The employes of the Government come to regard themselves as a privileged class, and think they have a personal right to the offices which they have held so loug. If any effurt is made to re- form the service, they look upon it as medgling with their personal affuirs, aud resent it by organizing to defeat the representatives of the peuple who have dared.to interfere with them. Now there are at least a million of people in the United States just as competent to perform the duties of clerks in the departments as those who are there, andthey would be glad to work eight, or even ten, hours aday,if they could secure those offices; but the favored few nd m- It ce, yO4 ‘he “he to ha- to oo orpoTtalL oT | Who have held them for so many counTigs. | Porcra-|Squaxx|] PROV-) Pi.0V. | years, seeu to think they have a di- rion. |MiLgs.|} ED, | ED ‘ = . | f —-|—_——j-—-+—} —-— | Vine rig itto live at the expense o Pinna sare #0901] q1,790| 180,968 | the Government, and shirk all the aa vas are! wan | work they can.

Fedonal Officeholders. | . —— A Mountain in Mot ras The Geneva correspondent.of >the) London Times telegraphs, under date of January 17: “Heavy snow storms extending over # of fiftéen days, have produced au extraordinary earthslip iv the valley of Faverges, above which towers a high mountain of the same name. The scene of the nenon is neat the village of arias and Chateau du Diable. On the night of ‘Tuesday last the people of the village wre a by a ter- rible noise, which. “knew could oa be oe, we dislocation’ ef the mountain, Quitting their hoas- es iv all haste, aud-taling only sugh things as they could lay their hands on, they sought refuge in the neigh- boring villages of Geravel and Bouch- et. hen the sum rose next morning the fugitives saw the strangest sight they ever beheld. A great mass of earth, solid and compact, pushin be- fore it heaps of mud and stones, drag- ging after it rocks and tree, was rolling and irresistibly down the mouutain side, straight toward the houses they had left only a few hours previously. Before noon the mud and stones had reached the village. The avalanche, followed by further earth slips from the mountain, still rolls:on its. course, and nobody can tell how svon the disintegration of the moun- tain will come to an ead.” -_——-a--—— What a Glass of Wine Did. A writer, who wished to impress upon his bearers that small incidents often influence great eveuts, recently ealled attention to an interesting bit of history. The Duke of Orleans was the son of King Louis Phillippe, of France, and was the heir. to the throne. ‘The duke was in the habit of drinking just se many glasses of wine. Que additional glass would make him tipsy. Ona certafn ooca- sion when he was about to leave Paris to join his regiment he invited sever- al of his friends to breakfast with him. Everything was so jolly that the duke forgot bis number of glasses aud drawk one-more than he should have duke. Bidding sdiea to his’ conipanions he entered his carriage. He stumbled ou the step and frighten- ed the horses. “Ihe horses ran away, and, though the duke was, inside coach he could not keep his seat, HE leaped from, the carriage. But f that one glass of wine he would have alighted on his feet. Ag it was, his head struck the pavement and he died shortly afterward. ‘That extra glass of wine overthrew the Orleans dy- nasty, confiscated — their property: $100,000,000, sent the whole family intw exile, aud changed the history of France for the next quarter of a cet- tury. es “The greatest obstacles in the way of the prosperity of the legal profes- sion,” said President Bonney to the Illinois Bar Association, “the most serious hindrances to their usefulness, the sources of greatest injury to their clients, the causes of d t dissatis- faction and prejudice, are the delays, uncertainties and expenses of legal proceedings. The lovses and the. anx-, ieties arising from these causes are often more than the results which the suitor is finally allowed to take out of the scales of justice.” ‘He said that ndove ought to be heard in a court of justi¢e except upon the condition of submitting both to de and receive substantial justice, without regard to any technicality ef matter of form. “Let the law provide,” he added, “that no judgment shall be set aside or edctaal in any case, civil or erim- inal, provided it shall appear from the whole record that substantial jus- tice has been doue.” rr The cheap ery of the Radical pro- tectionisis that the Demeeratig party is hostile to the manu fact uring™uter- ests of the country, has no foundation ip fact. As the Washington Post well says, Democrats are as deeply inter- ested a8 Republicans in the prospert- ty of the people as a whole, and Dem- ocrats are no nore likely than Repub- licans to make such violent changes as to create a panic; but there is au earnest determination ow the part of an overwhelming majority of the people that the tariff taxes shall be reduced and made more equitable, It is, therefore, unwise on the part of the majority in this Congress to provoke resentinent and hostility by refusing compliance with the demand of the conntry for tariff reformm.—Charlette Journal. —~—————— A Spartanburg, 8.

Charlesten News and Courier says: “It is ramered here that means have been secured to complete the Spartan - burg and Asheville railread, avd that the grading will be begun in a short time. ‘This will be a piteee of good news to the mountain tourists who have had to stage it from Hendersonville to Asheville dar- ing past seasons, and will probably io- —_—— OF| that.a reliable gentleman from Stanly jaw in re Lerense the sumber of travelers by this route.” os The Great Mogul. | Many years aga, at ithe tiessiofe’ great ceremon, Windsor Castle was honored with the ptéseice’ of three “sovereings. were, of course, in *mufti.” lighted with the grounds, and presently | niention, I must, In™ entered {nto conversation with a gardener | siot think m ie a for the who evidently took them fora party of cy.” The © letter is iow ia the “gentleman's gentleman” out for a strott. | After some: Hittlé affable talk he copld not, resist the querry: “Now, who may you gents bef” “Well said the spokesman side is the Emperor of Austria; and 4s for myself, I am the Emperor of Ruesia.”.

ALLIGATOR BustNEss.—The business of catching alligators provides. oceu n for uite a.number of persons in ox deste. The ‘he hide of a large alligator is worth from $1 to $2. It is almost a day’s task to skin a large one. Alligator oil, which has at first a most onpleaant smell, is much val- ued as a remedy for rheumatism, Fisher- men sometimes éat portions of the animal’s body. The ficsh of the tail, when cooked is said “to be like veal in appearance and like pork’ in taste. Young ones are bought by dealers at from $2 to $4 a dozen, if not over one footin length. They fetch a much ye price when retailed, as they are hard to keep alive. There is an increase in the selling price of 50 cents to $1 for every ad- ditional foot over a certain length. Alli- gators'sixteen to eighteen inches long are often found by dozens in shallow water, and they gr! be handled without trouble, pro- vided the ald one does not take alarm. alligator fishers are * usvall le lira out th eae to holes with « (Pia.)

He was uitted of any connection with the affair. ‘There seams to have been no. evidence against him what- ever, and the hearing before the mag- istrate was had forthe pitrpose of stopping all rumors in regatd to sus- picions pointing to him.—Charlotte Journal. -——->-—___— A boy astonished his Christian mother by asking fora dollarto buy a share ina raffle for a silver watch that was to be raf- fied off in a beer saloon.

Would it be right for me to steal money to put in the colectionit! And if it ‘ia @ght for the Church, is it not right forme to get this watch if I cant’ The geod woman was speechless, and no person can answer the boy’s argument. The practiccs are both wrong oF they are both right. The attention of the New York Nation is respectfully invited to the fact that there were 730 murders re- corded in the United States last year; also to ths fact that New York alone furnished 131 of them, while the whole South furnished only 212; also to the fact that half of the executions for. these murders took place in the South. Aud then the Nation, after pondering these facts, it is respect- fully invited to hold the slack of it’s rd to the murderous dis- position 0 the Southern people, and the anxiety of everybody down here to shield murderers.—Charlotte Jour- nal, Bob Ingersoll is still dreaming strange dreama, his latest being this abeut intem- perance: “‘If the Mississippi and all its tributaries were filled with pare whisky, it the banks were loaf sugar, aud all the]. lowgrounds covered with minut, there would be no more drunkenness thar there is to-day.

Next morning, on the way te Gold Hill, we drove over the “EBagle™ and “Klan” mines, . both good andeveloped gold bearing mives. They are controlled by Mv. Newman. At GOLD HILL we were kindly received by Mr. Treloar, the Supt., and Mr. Hambley, the efficient assayer. Work is progreasing in the most satisfactory manner. The “Old Field” vein is proving all that had beea anticipated. The pamps are going steadily, forking the water from the Randolph shaft. The appearance of the place indicates that the work will be pushed with reasonable viger, with good prospects of permanent success. We walked over the ‘“McMackin,” “Troutman” and the “Union Geld and Copper” properties. The MeMackin and Troutman are complex orés, galivite, carrying gold, silverand copper. Mr. Newman controlls these properties also. THE CROWELL MINE, under the superintendence of Mr. C. G. Viele, was next visited. Here prospect- ing and some sluice-washing is being carried on. The severe weather has greatly retarded work at this place. GRAY HARRIS MJNE. From the Crowell, oar horses’ heads were turved to Davidson county. Iv this county the miuivg interest is quite lively.

The property of the Rich Knob Copper Company, promises to be the richest mine ever opened in the Stato. The property consists of two hundred and fifty acres of land, covered with a heavy growth of valuable timber, and is situated pear Gap Creek in the southeast corner of Ashe county, on one of the branches of the New River, A 12x14 incline has been sunk and is pow down one hundred and sixty feet; veinis four feet wide, and quality of ore is increasing in value. At the sixty feet level a drift has been ran on the vein over 200 feet out through the side of the mountain, and frow this level a winze has been sunk on the vein 80 feet, the ore incrensing ia value and vein in size all the way down. At the bottem of winze, vein is 4 feet wide and will average 20 per cent. copper and $40 in guid to the ton. At the 160 feet level it is proposed todrive ou the vein out through the side of the mountain. This will pass below the bottom of the winze aud through the body of righ ore shown to be there by the present developments. Prof. Emmons, late State Geolegist of North Carolina, says of this mine: “This mine is copper, and the special miveral which prevails is the vitreious ore, together with the blue carbonate and chyysecolla, or silicate of copper. 1 did uot notice any of the yellow salphurets, though the most charactetistic specimens came from a depth of from 90 to 6U feet.

Tie Midland has long been an important routeofsouthern travel, and since its combination with the Richmond and Danville it has become a still more popular avenue. The line of the Richmond and Danville between Danville and Atlanta, possesses pe- culiar advan as a locality for the cul- tivation of the soil. It is popularly known as the Piedmont section, and is remarkable for its salubrity and its beauty of scenery. It has attracted a thrifty population since the opening of this railroad, and there are et abundant and cheap lands available. besc lands are being purchased and trans- formed into productive farms, and owing to the general favorable conditions exigtin g the inhabitants are steadily increasing in number and prespcrity. As an indaceMent to permanent popula- tion, the railroad company have introduced liberal features, They not enly aid the intending settler in securing a location by cortespondence, but favor him with nom- inal rates of fare upon their road, as an in— centive to personal investigation. If heul- timately purchases, they transport his house- hold effects at greatly reduced rates and give him, without charge, @ one thousand mileage ticket.

Henderson, Con Commigsioner of Ag- viculture of Georgia, in a commanication te the Secretary ef State, presbutse seme useful ioformatien for the consideration of the planters of the cotton States. He says that the oil frem the cotton seed possesses no value asa fertilizer, and that consequently its removal detracts nothing from the value ef the seed for agricultural purposes; but, he adda, “there is one fact which 1 am very de- sirous of impressing upen the minds of farmers, viz: that they cannot afford to part with the cotton seed gfown apon their farms at any price, unless their equivalent in mavarial value is retarned to the svil in some form. This may be done in several ways, the most simple of which is by an exchange of the seed for ap equivalent in the value of the cotten eccd meal. The farmer cgnuot afford. to sell his cotton seed at less than twenty cents per bashel, since he cannot with the money, received at a lower price, re- place the equivalent ameunt of plant fuod to that removed in eotton seed. Unless thie is annually dune, the dete- tioration of the soil is certain. The fol- lowing analysis of cotton seed meal shows the per centage®’of valuable ingre- dients in cotton seed meal. Cotton seed meal, 0.14 moisture ; 2.65 total phosphate acid ; 8.80 ammonia, 2.45 potash. Am- monia is valued at 22 cents per pound ; phosphate acid at 12},. and potash at 6. According to the method of calculating the commercial value of commercial fer- tilizera, a ton of cottov seed meal is worth $48.62, but it coutaims au excess of am- movia, which would make an application of the meal alone wasteful. By mixing the meal, however, with a high grade superphosphate (uon-ammoniated) a very superior fertilizer is obtained, About the proper proportions would be one of cotten seed meal to two of superphos- phate. The ammonia in the evttou seed only as the particles of thé meal decom- pose, and hence it is better than that more promptly rendered active by the rapid decomposition of the animal mat- ter. The average analysis of six chen- ists shows that whole cotton seed con- tains ammonia 2.50 per cent; phosphate were last year.

He got appointed a Commissioner of Reada, and afterward removed to Bristol, where he obtained a ‘similar post and was made a magistrate. ‘Gifted with a mania on the subject, he began abont 1794 to travel over the country at his own cost; and these la- bors he continued from Inverness to the Land's End for 26 years, apparently to search for a well made road. McAdam’s plan. of road-making dif- fered as much from the old way which he ‘found in operation as a bridge does from a ford. Iustead of going deep for a | bottoming,” he worked .solely on the ,top.

Among Mr. Burn- ham, of Chicago, with only a six inch telescope, has discovered over one thousand double stars wholly new to science. Mr. Barnard, of Nasheville, Tenn., with a five inch instrument, has diseovered two comets, both within the past year, Prof. Schaeberle, of Aun Aarbor; Mr. Brooks, of Phelps, N. Y. aud Mr. Wells, of Albany, have all made cometary discoveries of an important nature. Prof. Swift, of Rochester, has disoovered two intramer- bile, and seven comets, for which he has been awarded three German medals and the Lelande prize of thé Fronch Acade- my of Sciences. Prof. Hall, of Washington, is the discoverer of beth of the moons of Mars, and Prof. Boud of the eighth satellite and transparent ring of Saturn. Many fine priv Within the past few years there has ate observatories have been erected recently in various parts of America, among the number being Prof. Draper’s, at Hastings, \. T. ; Prof. Morrison’s, at Glasglow, Mo., aud Prof. Rutherfurd’s, New York. By far the finest private institution of the kind in the world, however, is the Warner Observatory, at Rochester, N. Y., of which the above illustration represents the new and large refracting telescope. This instrument is more thau twenty-two feet in length, is composed of sheet steel and brass, is driven by clock work to exactly equal the carth’s axial motion, and mounted in the most modern and improved style. It is capable of magnifying 2,500 diame- ters, thus bringing the moon within nine miles of the earth. ‘The entire cost of the telescope and observatory in which it is mounted exeeeds *100,000. The Warner Observatory was erected fiom the private purse of Mr, H. H. Warner, proprietor of the Safe Kidney and Liver Cure and other remedies, who has atso- endowed and furnished it most liberally. In addition thereto he has paid out several thousand dollars in prizes for the discovery of comets and meteors, which has doubtless greatly stimulated the discoveries to whien reference has been made. With the zeal shown in the exploration of the heavens, and the improve- ments being made in the means of* observation, we are learning new facts every day about the bodies moviug in the vast expanse of space, of which heretofore only professional astronomers knew anything, and they but little. The time will come when we will know many things about them where we now have only conjecture. Oo Falsification of Brandy. ——————— rr ar The Rev. W. J. Maxwell on Tal- mage and Beecher.

His leading principle was that a road ought to be considered an artificial flooring, so strong and even asto let the heaviest vehicle pass over it without impediment. Then people began to hear with won- der of roads thirty and forty feet wide rising ouly three inches in the center, and he propounded the extraordinary heresy that a better and wore lasting road could we made over the naked sur- face of a moraas than over sold reck. Another of his easy first principles was that the native soil was more resistaut when dry thaw when wet, and that, as in reality it had to carry not alone the traffic but the road also, it ought to be kept in a condition of the greatest re- sistance ; that the best way of keeping it dry was to put over it a covering imper- viens to rain—the read, in fact ; and that the thickness of this covering was to be regulated solely in relation to its imperviousnesa, and not at all as to its bearing of weights, to which the vative soil was quite equal. Instead of digging a trench, therefore, todo away with the surface of the native soil, he carefully respected it, and raised his road suffi- ciently above it to let the water ran off. Impermeability he obtained by the prac- tical discuvery that stones broken small and shaken and pressed together, as by the traffic on a road, rapidly settled down face to face and angle to angle, and nade as close a mass asa wall. Man- kiud in general now believe that this last is all that McAdam invented ; the rest is fergotten, That important faction of his discoveries is what has given to us the verb to macadamize (“To pave a road with small broken stoves.—Skeat), and and to the French their nouns macadam (‘Nom d'un parage inrente par un An- glais.”—Littre), macadamising and the verb macadamiser. Ifa wan is knocked down by an omnibne, in the middle of the boulevard, a Parisian bystander will nowndays say: “Je [ai vu tomber sur le macadam,” Roads which were mere layers of broken stone, six, four, and even as little as three inches in thickness, passed through the worst winters without breaking up, while, as the coachman used to say, they “ran true; the wheel ran hard upov them, it ran upeo the pail.” Commis- sioners could not believe their eyes when they saw new roads made for much less than it had cost them yearly to repair their old ones. When an old road was given into Mr. McAdam’s charge, he often made a new one of it for £88 a mile, while round London the cost of annual repairs had been £470 a wile. For he knew that the reads—such as had been the ignorant waste —penerally contained materials enough for their ase for several years if properly applied.. Unless the ruad was hopeless, he went to work in a practical, cheap way ; first cutting off the “gridiron” of rats in the center ‘toa level with the bottom of the farrows,” | then “picking” the road up to a depth of ! four inches, removing all the chalk, clay, or wad, breaking the large stoves small, and simply putting them back again, and one of his directions to his workmen was that “nothing is to be laid on the clean stone on pretence of binding.” But too often the road was so bad, as at Egham, that it had to be removed to its founda- tions. . For the repairs of his road, when once made, he always chose wet weathor, and “Joogened the hardened surface with a pick” before putting on the fresh broken rig ~aVa’ oerr he weilior enongh to ua now, The property has an old, establish |,;- Surprise followed surprise. putation.

Of “these velrd | tribataries are net incladed in this eal three run with the formation and aye —— Postmaster General; as a last resource, a matter of indifference to him, previded they were stones, and stones only (Essex and Sussex), he said, made an excellent read, if only broken properly small; limestone (Wilts, Someract, and Glouces- ter) consolidates eoonest of all, but is not the most lasting ; the pebbles of Shrop- shire and Staffordshire were also good and the beach pebbles of Esaséx, Kent and Sussex were some of the best mate- rials in the kingdom ; but the whinstone or granite of the north and of Scotland he pronounced the most durable. Even in the breaking of stunes McAdam made a revolution, He saw that able- bodied men standing up with heavy ham- mers wasted the greater portion of their strength. He made his stone-breakers sit, so that all the fore of the blows took direct effect on the stove ; and the result was that he found small hammers did the work perfectly well, and thus was en- abled to confine it to old men past hard labor, women and boys, which reduced the cost of the broken stone by ove-half. The size to which the stone should be determined in a practical way by the area of contact of av ordinary wheel with a smooth read.- This’ he found to be about ap inch lengthwise, and therefore he laid it down that “a stone which ex- ceeds an inch in avy af its dimensions is mischievous,” that is to say, that the wheel iu pressing on one end of it tends tw lift the other end out of the road. In practice he found it simplest to fix a weight of six ounces, and his surveyore carried about scales to test the largest stones in each heap. He would allow no large stones even for the foundation of his roads,,for he found they constantly worked upward by the pressure and vi- bration of the traffic. The whole road was emall broken stones, even over swampy ground.”—St. James Gazette. OOO Oe IMPROVED Paprer Macue PROCEss.— A durable and inexpensive method of employing papier mache as a substitute for mattings, carpets, oil cloths, and oth- er fluor coverings has been introdaced says the Providence Journal, the simplic- ity of the process being also an additienal advantage iv its favor, After the floor has been thoroughly cleansed the holes and cracks are then filled with paper put- ty, make by soaking newspaper in a paste made of wheat flonr, water, and ground alum, that is, to ene pound of such flour are added three quarts of water and a tablespoon ful yal ger alam these being thoroughly mixed. With this paste the floor is uniformly coated, and upen thisa thickness of Manilla or hardware paper is placed, or if two layers are desired, a sec- ond covering of paste is spread on the tirst layer of Manilla paper, and then the second thickness of paper is put on, and the whole allowed to become perfectly dry ; on this being accomplised another surface of paste is added, succeeded by a layer of wall paper of any style or pattern desired. Ov the work becoming entirely dry, it is covered with two or more coats of sizing, made by dissolving one-half pound of white glue in two quarts of hot water, and when this has dried, a coat of “hard oil fiuish varnish,” nothing more being required after the latter has had time to become thoroughly dry in every part. 7 ———— Tue Great Watt or Curina.—An American engineer who, being engaged in the construction of a railway in China, has had unusnally favorable opportani- ties of examining the famous Great Wall, built to obstruct the ineursious of the Tartars, gives the following account of this wonderful work: The wall is 1,728 miles long, 18 feet wide, and 15 feet thick at the top. The fonndation throughout is of solid granite, the remainder of com- pact masonry. At intervals of between two hundred and three hundred yards towers rise up twenty-five to forty feet high, and twenty-four feet in diameter. On the top of the wall and on both sides of it are masonry parapets, to enable the defenders to pass unseen from one tewer to another. The wall itself is carried from point to point in a perfectly straight line across valleys aud plains and over hills, without the slightest regard to the con- figuration of the ground; sometimes plunging down into abysses a thousand feet deep. Brooks and rivers are bridg- ed over by the wall, while on both banks of larger streams strong flanking towers are placed. —_———_— aor Way Mr. Davis Senve IN His Resic- MATION.—Washington, Feb. 27.—It_ is believed that the anouncement by. Judge Davis that he will resign President of the Senate pro tempore, at noon next Saturday, was prompted by information from President Arthur that he does pot intend to cenvene the Senate in special session on the 5th of March.

No less than 21 men are in prison charged with being concerned in the murder of Cavendish and _ Secretary Barke in Pheonix Park, Scotland, and developments seem not yet at an end. The excitement incident to the unfolding of the great crime is great. Norfelk Landmark says: “To build forts require much time and large expenditures. Torpedo boats cost little, and are our only hope. That they may be efficient, it is important they should be at every point of attack on our coast. How shall they defend us in time of need? Will it not be by an inland channel, free from the danger of Hatteras and the coast of North Carolina? If so should Congress not at once provide for the extension of our inland route from North Carolina to the South. THE Philadelphia Times makes the fol- lowing very appropriate remarks: “The Clerk of the Supreme Court, whose net fees amounted to $29,000 last year, has been put upon an annual salary of $5,000 in the new appropriation bill. This would in- dicate that a committee of one hundred has been doing some leng-needed work in Washington. It seems scarcely proper to pay a Clerk of the Supreme Court almost four times as much as a Judge.” ————— ° PHOTOGRAPHING A ComeET’s TAalL.— Dr. Gill. at the Cape of Good Hope, succeeded in photographing the comet’s tail and with it fifty stars that were seen throngh the tail. The plate was exposed 140 minutes, and was kept up to the mo- tion of the earth by clockwork. ——-—-——-_-—- -—— Virerxta Mouse Story.—Mr. Robert Beverly, a well known resident and land ewner of Fauquier county, Va., says he has in his possession a natual curiosity in the shape of a mouse, that sings, chirps and has the other peculiarities of the bird kind, minus the feathers and conformation. It warbles similar to a mocking bird and its notes are of equal sweetness to either that or the canary. .

He was in public life for a great while, and has goue out withent « stain apon his character. His death is a great loss to the people of Georgia, and to the country at largo. The news of his death created a profound sensation througheut Georgian. His remains are lying.in state at the capitel, in Atlanta, many thoa- sands throngiug to view them. The Aa- gusta Chronicle says: **All denominations and classes, irrespective of party, are profoundly moved by the death of this statesman, patriot and philanthropist.” ——_— eee Lost It!—Nat Atkinson, of Bancombe who wasa spouting “liberal” last fall, and whose lusty voice waked the echos among hie vative hills but changed no votes, throagh the influence of the Mott combi- nation, got the appointment of Postmas- ter of Asheville as a reward for bis valu- able and disiaterested lubors as a stum- per. He has held it two or three months and when at last it come up in the Senate for confirmation, that body went back on Nat. and vow—he is disgusted, mopish avd melancholly, and no doubt feels like the fellow the calf run over. ae The passage of a tariff bill by the late Congress was not only a geveral surprise te the country, but also to the members of Congress themselves. It was not thought possible that it would pass eith- er branch, bat especially the Senate. The announcement of its passage was greeted by the Rgpublicans of the Honsc by the joyous clapping of hands, in which the Democrats are said to had small part. It is well kuown that the republicans were afraid to gu home to their censtitu- euts without passing seme bill, and it may yet appear that their action will fail to satisfy the people. —— p+ ae The act of the Legislature in releasing the R. & D.R.R., company from the per- formance of a part of their contract with the Stute hax elicited considerable foter- est, and needs to beguore perfectly an- derstooil by the people generally to war- rant their approval. It is fair to suppose however, that the people’s representa- tives did vet sacrifice the imtercest of the State iv this watter. The Raleigh News-Observer says: “The act does not make it ebligatory ov the company to build any branch road either to Maryville or througi) Rabun Gap. It dees require work to be begun in sixty days, aud pushed on the Murphy exten- sion. “The chief change is that if the syndi- cate s the $600,000 for its bonds own- ed oy the State, and builds the road to the mouth of Nantahala, it may step its ee at that point, and then tho urphy extension, if not finished, reverts to the State. — “In fegard to the liability of the State fer the annual interest on the $850,000 first mortgage bonds, we think, come what may, the State is protected there.” A pew edition of the Postoffice Direc- tery is just out and Assistant Postmaster J. B. Gill draws our attention to the fol- lowing ruling which it contains and which is of general public interest : “Hereafter no matter can be forwarded in the mails after it reaches its original address without pez ment of postage ex- eept letters which have one full rate paid thereon, namely, three cents, and news- parere and other periodicals which are tu forwarded to subscribers from one ce to another which are-in the same county where the paper to be for- warded is published and in whole or in part printed.” net The failure of the River and Harbor bill will probably arrest the improvement in the Yadkin River. Considerable ex- pense was incurred in preparations for the work, which wont bravely on while the weather and water was favorable last year. We learn that there are means enough ou hand to carry forward the|_ work to Swicegood’s mill, some 23 or 25 miles from here, at which point there will probably be a suspension of operatiens. qo ee Mr. Whitford of the Senate presented last week thirteen petitions signed by 640 persons, asking the Legislature to amend the constitution so as to require every voter to show his tax receipt before being allowed to vote. The signers were mostly prosperous and intelligent colored men of Craven, Carteret, Jones and Green counties. oO The N. Y. Sun, relates the circum- stances of the suicide of Major Samuel T. Wright, of Tarboro, N.C., in that city on Friday last. Maj. Wright was a brave soldier in the Confederate army. He could brave the dangers of battle, but could not bear the disappointment of friends in business matters. He left an estimable family in Tarboro. ——_—_—oo-______ Congress passed a tax bill in the last hoara of ita existence and the President sigced it; bat it is not yet known how it Will affect the revenues.

Hogs and Hominy First—The Surplus in Cotton. The cotton factors of St. Louis have uvited in the following circular in the hope of influencing the growth of food products in the South the coming season: St. Louis, Mo., Feb. 24, 1863.—To the Merchants, Farmers, and Tenants of the Cottow Belt: The South is new on the eve of planting another crop, and after an experience of seventeen years it seems advisable that some change should be made in her manner of farming, and we call your careful attentian to the follow- ing facts, which are offered with tho sin- cere hope that the people will give them proper covsideration. Your section possesses the flvest farm- ing lands and ‘the moat salubrious climate in the world, and should be to-day finan- cially independent ; instead of having to borrow a crop before it is made, should have her corn-bins and larders filled be- fore commencing a crop. Compare the situation with the farmers of the North and West. They by sys- tematic labor are growing richer each year, while you with patient toil and close economy are neither so thriving nor pros- perous as you shuuld be. There is a cause for these troubles, and we, as cotton mon, whose ivtereat is close- ly identified with yours, believe we are in a position to nete many of the evils that exist, and offer, without presuming, the following suggestions : 1. The credit system, as at present in vogue throughoat the South, is disastrous to the planters and tenants, forcing them fo pay extravagant prices for supplies, and causing their crops to be forced into market with such rapidity aud in such quantities as to break prices almost inva- riably below cost of production. 2. After noting for years the effect of large crops of cotton, we find that the over-production of this staple is the key- note to the situation and we strongly ad- vise all parties interested in the pros- perity of the South to discourage the planting of a large acreage this year, and devote their labors first to the raising of grain, cattle and hogs, and give the bal- ance of their time to the culture of cot- ton. This policy will bring good results in many ways; for instance many small far- mers, and large ones also, are 80 heavily in debt when their cotton is ready for sale shat they are compelled to let it go, even though tho price is below its ivtrin- sic worth ; while, if they had supplies at home, prodaced, and not bought on cred- it, they could afford to hold their cotton until they felt justified in selling. The price of cotton to-day ia fully 15 per cent below the average of the past five years, while on the ether hand, corn is 33 per cent. and provisions 50 per cent. above the average. Thus are you loser both ways. With the prodaction of enough previs- ions op each farm, cotton would become a surplus, and soon the incubus of debt would be lifted from your people, and each year would record rapid strides in wealth. Decreased production of cotton, and increased production of bread, meat and other necessaries will briag about a more prosperous condition of affairs for the Suuth, and instead of Sheriff sales to sat- isfy the mortgages that the poor laborers must now give, we would see grinding poverty banished forever and plenty would pour in upon you. We ask that the merchants and plan- ters of each’ State, by calling a conven- lion, or in gome practicable manner, agi- felt throughout the eutive cotton belt.

House.—The House speuf$ nearly all the morning ov Mr. Forbis’ bill creating a railroad commission. (This bill, which has been published. is alinost precisely similar to that introduced by Mr. Pinnix in the Senate, which failed to pase that ‘body.) The bill came up in the House on its third reading and passed. oro How the Tariff Plunders. Prof. Sumner, of Yale College, has been giving some attention to tariff figures to show what protection actually costs the American people. He finds that in 1830 the capital invested in manofactaring in the United States was $2,790,000,000. The number of hands employed was 2,700,000 and the wages paid amounted to $48,000,000 or an average of $1.17 per day ‘for each hand employed. The materials used amounted in value to $3,- 400,000,000, and the manafactured pro- ducts to $5,300,000,000. The manufac- turers, therefore, increased the raw ma- terials $1,900,000,000 in value. The products of the manufactaring industry in this country were worth in the world’s market $3,700,000,000—the taiff made these products cost us $1 600,000,000 more. Such being the casc, Prof. Sumper con- clades that all the workers in our manu- facturing industries could have been paid their regular wages to have stood idle, and that ten per cent. on all the capital invested in manafactures could have been paid, provided that we were allowed to buy all we wanted in a free market, with a net gain to this country of $373,000,000. A similar calcalation applied te the pro- duction of pig irou shows that the wages of all the workers in irom and ten per cent. on capital invested in this industry could have been at a net saving to this country of $2,800,000. Millions upon top of millions the Amer- ican peoplé have annually paid these fa- vored wards of protective legislation, and now they howl as loudly for protection for their ‘infant industries” as they did when they first asked for a protective tariff. They are even more exhorbitaut in their demands now than they were theb, for protection has made them rich and success has inade them beld.—Char. Observer. ee It may pot be geverally known, but is nevertheless a fact, that both buffalo and elk once abounded in the walley of the Yadkin in Caldwell and Wilkes. Daniel Boone and the hunters who succeeded him, seou exterminated the buffalo herds, which, it appears, were never very abun- dant, but the elk took refuge in the mountains gorges and was for many years the pride of the chase to the valley hun- ters; the last elk being killed by Col.

They are the result of years of chem- ical: study, and only time and experience has brought them to their present perfec- tion. Testimonials are received eve — of the wonderful cures of Sprains, Back, Rhematism, Lumbago, Paralysis and hosts of other diseases. Of course the vast sales and great'successiof ALLCocK’s Porous PiasTers have caused numerous plasters to be brought before the public which, be- ing called porous, would give the world to understand that they were a similar. article to the genuine. We would most particular- ly caution the public against these hum- bugs. They contain none of the healing gums that are used in ALLcock’s, but are simply a combination of lead, red ~~ and rabber, and are vaunted in Jong wind- ed advertisements as an improvement on A.Lcock’s Porous Piasters. Beware of the hazy and untrue statements and never use any of these so-called perous frauds. Allcock’s Porous Plasters Relieve Debility and Nervousness. ALLcock’s PLASTERS worn on the region of the kidneys ‘warms the spinal marrow which is a continuatien of the brain, yn—- parting new vitality end power to the spine they stregthen that mighty organ and fill it full of foreign electricity er nervous fluid. Thus they wil! restore to the busy active brain of man or woman, the energy and ability which has been lost by disease, wor- ry or overwork. They restore vitality where there has been debility and nervous- ness, and prevent loss of memory and pa-— ralysis. Physicians highly recommend them for nervous debility, whether arising from dissipation or overwork. They are now known to be the great regenerators of the nervous system and are invaluable in. all cases of hysteria. - Wweak Kidneys Cured. Contoocook, N. H., March 3, 1880. I have been greatly troubled with Rheu- matisin aid Weak Kidneys. I was advised to try ALLcock’s Porous PLastEers (had used two other kinds of so-called Porous Plasters which gave me no relicf,) but one of yours has worked like a charm, giving me complete relief,and I have not been troubled with Rheumatism and Kidney Complaint since using them, and I consider myself cured. Epwarb D. BuRNHAM. Bromchial Troubles. 122 C Sr., Wasutneron, D. C., January 7, 1882. I take great pleasure in recommending ALLcock’s Porous PLastrrs. I was in- dnced to try them by Mrs. Samuel J. Ran- dall, and I found them everything desired. I used four other so-called Porous Plasters before procuring ALLCOCK's ; they were per- fectly useless. But immediately upon ap— plying two of ALLcock’s to my chest my cold and bad cough were at once relieved. I want you to send me one dozen forth- with. JOHN T. INGRAM. Spinal Disease Cured. HamMeE.’s HoTEL, Rockaway Beacu, N. Y., May 19, 82. { ALLcock’s PLAsTERS have been of such great service to me and mine that I feel it a duty to state the facts, as briefly as possi- ble, to induce others to usethem. My wife for many years was confined to her bed, suffering from spinal disease. After spend- ing a thousand dollars in vain effort to get cured, she applied three ALLCOCK’s PLAs— TERS to the spinal column, one above the In a few days all pain left her. She applied fresh plasters every two weeks and in the course of two months she com- pletely recovered her health. At first she could bardly walk across the room; each day she walked a little further, and now she is able to walk five miles without fa- tigne. She stitl occasionally applies the plasters to her back, but she has been per- tectly well for upward of a year. LEWIS L. HAMMEL. CURE OF SPRAIN. 554 Main St., HartTForpD, Conn., April 26, 1879. Will you please send me an ALLCOCK’s Porous PLasTER, 20 inches long by 7 inches wide, to use on my back for weak- ness of kidneys. I have worn them with the best curative effect, fer a weak side, near the heart, many ycars—for injury caus- ed by strain and litting in the army. I could not do without them; I use one about every month. I have on a Belladonna Plaster and don’t like it at all, for it has not the power or strength of ALLCOcK’s Pokous Piasters. B. WELLS SPERRY. “A Blessing in Disguise.” 484 ADELPHI ST., BROOKLYN, March 29, 1881. No family should be without ALLCocK's Poxous PLasteks; their healing powers are wonderful and. their efficacy far-reaching and lasting. For years past I have seen and known them to cure and relieve the most obstinate and distressing cases of rheumatism, kidney complaint, bronchitis, neuralgia, lumbago, inflamation of the lungs and throat, paralysis, asthma, spinal weakness, and coughs and colds. In my own case they afferded me almost instant and permanent relief. My friends consider them an invaluable and speedy remedy tu all kinds of aches and pains. They are # blessing’ in disguise; and no wife or mother should be without them if she values her peace and comfort and freedom from ner- vous exhaustion and other ailments. As a strengthening plaster, also for backaches and weakness, they have no equal. I have never yet found a-plaster so efficacious and stimulating, or to give so much general sat- isfaction. Used in connection with Bran— DRETH'’s uuiversal life-giving and life-heal— ing P1LLs, no one necd despair of a speedy restoration to good sound health. MRS. E. TOMPKINS.

He obtained it by accident, and in so romantic a. manner that the story is worth repeating. During the war he was in command at the Fairfax County Court House, and when the Fed- eral force took possession, they commenced te destroy everything that could aid the enemy. The work of pillage was going on at the court house, where he knew there were many valuable documents stored. He rode post—haste, and reining up his horse before a group of soldiers, he discov- ered one of the number in the act ot light his pipe with a large paper yellow with age. He quickly seized it from the sold- ier’s hand, only the edges brown by the fire; and discovered it to be Washington's will.

With these facts staring us in the face, it was with some feeling of hesitancy that we approached the Superintendent, Mr. Ww. Frecheville. He is ap affable gentleman, answered all questions cheertally, aod kindly showed as over the property. It must be remembered that about one year ago he was sent ont from Londow to ex- amine the property, and at that time the company contemplated its abandonment, as they were fully persuaded that it was 4 swindle. At Mr. Frecheville’s suggestion they concluded to preve the property thoroughly before taking the step, under his superintendency. His was a work of prospecting and develdpment, with bat little hope of saccess. A few months since he cat a rich stringer and follewed it until he came into what he hopes will prove the maia body of the lode—it isa pay chute in the lode. He is ranning 20 stamps on this ore with success, aud says that if the results conijnae, asat present, the company will be satisfied. The last run.of 160 tens gave ® resalt ef eight dollars per ton, or & little over, aud the ore now going through the mill is slight- ly better. As to the development, it may be stated that the “Galimore shaft” is the center ef one set of workings, througb which they have been proving the greund under the old worlkings.

A new pump is being lowered to facilitate the work. The presumption is that work will be carried on with some regu- larity.

The residuum is treated for its gold contents. The works are equipped with the most medern mining machinery for hoisting and pumping; 2 20 stamp battery, and all the appliances for concentrating the ores; four reverbatory furnaces; oue smelting furnace, aud one refining furnace for the production of refined copper. The mill prodaces about fifteen hun- dred dellars per week in gold exclusive of the concentrates. The copper product equals and generally exceeds the prodact in gold. With the combined products of gold, copper audconcentrates the output will equal $3,500 per week. The pay roll does not exceed $1,200 ‘per week. This mine is under the same mauage- ment as “Ore Knob,” the Mesers Clay tons of Baltimore, and promises to be the second dividend paying mine of the South. Ore Knob paid as high as one hundred and fifty thensand a year in dividends, and we predict that Conrad Hill will PAY THIS YEAR $100,000 In DIVIDENDS.

Mrs.‘Burnell, the dwarf, whofor several months has been one of the curiosities at a museum, in this city, died with pneumonia in this city. She was born October 18, 1856,in the yillage of Richmond near Montpelier, Vt. Her father was 4 very small man, but.her mother was of fairly average stature. When she was three years old Mrs. Burnell ceased to grow. and soon de- veloped all charactestics of a dwarf. At the age of fourteen she was but thirty-nine inches high,and weighed only forty pounds. In may, 1875, she was secured by P. T. Barnum as one of the curiosities of his show and since that time has been exhibited in circuses and museums injalmost every State and Territory in the Union. In January, 1879, she was married to Mr. Burnell, and im the following September became the mether of a son by means of the Ceasarean operation, which was perfor- med in Phiadelpbis.

As a- shining: illustration of the above propusitior we can refer with pride to THE ALDERNEY OREAMERY, _ which is charmingly situated, about two miles west of San Antonio, just beyond view of the city. It is owned and operated by Mr. D. Coulson, whuse name has now become synon- imous with pure unadulterated milk, not that blie, watery stuff which it is a shameful misnomer to call milk, The creamery was esteblished by the preseut proprietor about five years ago, on the present loeation, embrac- ing 600 acres of fine pasture land, en- tirely fenced. Commencing with but a few choice thoroughbred Alderney (or Jersey) cows, he has now increas— ed his stock to forty head of cows be sides a large number ef young cattle, heifers and bulls, and two very fine Holstein cows—in all one hundred and thirty head. All the stock are as gentle as lambs, particularly the Al- derney cows, which are playfully fon- dled by the proprietor, coming and going at the souud of his voice; and they are so well trained that on en- teriug that large and convenintly ar- ranged stable, each one will immedi- aely take its accustomed stall and patiently await the operation of milk- ing, which is undergone twice a day —once at 2 o'clock in the morning and again at neon. The first is for sale here in the city, and the latter is manufactured into incomparable: but- ier,-which is eagerly sought for by the many city customers, The cows are stall fed, principally with corn neal, cotton seed, oil cake and a_lit- tle wheat bran, These in proper proportions, make the best feed, yielding the largest quantity of rich milk, Mr. Coulson has some Alderneys crossed with uative Texas stock ,.mak- ing a hardy, good luoking and valua- ble animal. Here is a large airy and roomy stable us neat and clean as a bright new pin, cvell appointed for conven- ience,gand a buttery separated about fifty yards, supplied with all modern appliances for butter making. No one, not even the most fastidious, could find fault with this department for iv ny nook or corner cav Le found a suspicion of dirt. In the milking and feeding stalls, Mr. Z. Mott presides. This geutle- man is an experieneed dairy man, hav- ing had charge of the celebrated East- wood dairy near Nashville, Tenn., for three years. Mr. L. V. Williams, a young man from Cjucinnatti, superinteads and has,charge of Whe buttery. The ex- cellent quality of “Coulson’s butter uttests his skill. This product has frequently been counterfeited by un- scrupylous dealers who know its rep- utation, but this wiJl shortly be stop- ped by using moulds bearing private marks and brauds which cannot be duplicated. Iu brief this dairy is the largest and best in the State of Texas, and exhibits what can be accomplished by tuct and industry, even in the face of opposition and prejudice. Mr. (Q, does not pretend to assume all the credit for himself, bat yields the palm to his good and industrious wife. Though bat five years old, this in- vestment yielded a revenue last year of $7,000 and by the end of this pres- ent year, it will have greatly increas- ed over that amount. Having personally inspected this place and its operation, we have no hesitancy in saying the Alderneys are not surpassed by any breed of cattle for milk and butter qualities. Eeah gallon of milk yields a pound of the purest, sweetest and BEST BUTTER IN THE MARKET. Mr. D. Coulson was originally from Tennesseee, but came to Texas in the early day of its history, first settling at Bastrop, Texas. Five years ago he came to San Antonio to stay, a comparatively a poor man, establish- ed an “Alderney Creamery,” in the teeth of much prejudice, and is now the owner of this fine place, neat and substantial dwellings, stables and ten- ement houses, and over one hundred fine thoroughbred cattle. This is an example which it would be well for others to imitate. Dr. Belfield, of Chicago, in a lee- ture delivered Saturday, in New York maintained that consumption is con- tagions. He said it was finally deci- ded years ago that tuberculosis was infectious, but it remained for Dr. Koch, of Germany, to discover the infections agent. He noticed the presence of bacilliin the saliva of consumptive persons, but did not hasten to anneunce to the world that he had discovered the active agent in the causation of the disease. On the contrary, he went to work quietly, und ceaselessly watched the growth of the bacilli or bacteria. With the eighth generation of the bacteria with which he began his observations he inoculated animals, and the result was the production of tuberculosis in them, Having verified his work he announced its method and results at an ordiuary meeting of the Berlin Academy of Sciences, and the paper which he read was within forty-eight hours telegraphed all over the world. In the opinion of Dr. Belfield the ex-! not count this obje s ¢ tance, but, to set it at rest, he aoetully repeat Dr Kuch’s ments, A friend in Washington City. has Bentais a pamphlet prepared by Mi$ Robert Patterson, of Pittsburg, Peun., which proves quite conclusively. that the “Book of Mormon,” being: the pretented MSS on.which the Mormon. doctrine is founded, is merely a copy of fiction written about 1810 by Solo- mon Spaulding, “whe. was once a Congregationalist in Connecticut and moved to Ohio. . It purported to be on acceunt of the lost tribes, and de- tailed their wandertogs and their final settlement in America’; their wars, their life, the construction of the monnds found in the yarious parts of this coutinent, etc. The au- thor demonstrates very satisfactorily that this unpublished mauuseript of Spaulding’s fell into the hands of another minister who was a erank, and who arranged for old Spiith to work it up for gospel truth.” Out of that innoccat work of Spaulding’ sin « agination has sprung the singular spectacle we see in Utah—a govern- ment founded on religion, based on supp: sed Jewish customs and defying the moral sense of the present age.— News Observer, ~<a In 1867, an officer in the United States . Sub-Treasury at Boston, used over a million dollars of Uncle Sam’s cash for purposes of speculation. The day when the cash was to be counted rolled arouad, and to cook up his ae- counts he borrowed from the First National Bank at Newton, Mass., $311,000 to help cover his shortage, promising to return it the next day. Uncle Sam, however, discussed the affair and kept the cash. The bank thereupon broke, but the receiver in: stituted suit against the goverment to recover the stolen money which Unuele Sam had clutched in his vaults, The bank recovered judgment but the case was appealed to the Supreme court. It fell to the lot of Mr. Phillips, as Solicitor General, to ap- pear for the government in’ the Su- preme Court. On examining into the matter he found it entirely true, that the Governmeut had with strong hand held possession of the money abstracted from the bank—and on his recommendation, the appeal was withdrawa, leaving the judgment of the lower court in fore. That was honcst—and right.

A one dollar and a five dollar bill, greenback or national bank currency are carelessly torn in two in the middle and the half of the one and the one and the half of the five are pasted together. Unless scrutinized they will be apt to be taken for fives. Thus, with six dollars, the swindlers have been making a clear profit of four dollars out of the two fives which they manufacture. The swindlers are gen- earlly in the guise of peddlers, and have “taken in” a goodly number of victims. > <i> a The New York Times says: “Cotton seed mea! is the richest cattle feed known. In feeding a tun of it 29 pounds of potash, 56 pounds of phosphoric acid and 78 peunds of nitrogen go into the animal, Another analysis greatly inoreases these figures, and as it is given by Dr. Lawes it should not be overlooked; and taking that, the figures would be 62 pounds of potash, 96 poands of ;phogphoric acid, and 120 pounds of nitrogen. A very large pertion of these | W: substafices are net digested’ the oil being. the principal substance taken from it with some of the nitrogen ohly; the manure made from it is therefore very rich indeed so that nearly the whole cost of the food cames back in this shape.” ‘ ~ 36:tf en ent and respectfully solicit a tabfisment.

Mr. Editor: In an article in the Watchman, over my | | incognito “Farmer” | endeavored to 4i- | reet the attention of the farmers lo three | facts. First, that under the influence of a good cotton market at home that the cultiva- | tion of that staple was greatly increased. 2ua, by that, a heme market for tobacco would stimulatethe growth of our ceun- ty town, thereby benefitting all farmers: who raise anything to sell. And thereby | the daty of the farmer to the efforts now | being made to build ap a tobacco market | in that place. Each of these propositions I will trace a little further. First, then, I am to offer some reasons why cotton as compared to tobaces is not a profitable crop for this county. The variety of soils with a corresponding Va- riety of capabilities will prevent any crop | from being a specialty with us. We can produce on the same land a fair yield of corn, cotton, wheat, oats, tobacev, or any of the various root crops. It has loug been an admitted fact that cottou could | ouly be-produced as a surplus or mouey | crop, after making all necessity supplics | for the family and farm. It requires too niuch land, too much hoe work in the Spring, too much time in the Fall for picking. Time which ought to be given to food crops in the Spring, and to the children of the farm iu the tall for school. How is it with tobacco? I make the as- sertion fully conscioas of what Lsuy, that any land with us will make three pounds pf leaf tobacco to one of lint cotton, and for every bale of cotton produced on the farm the same amount of leaf tobacco eould be predaced aud leaye two acres fur reat, for hay, or for grazing; and to- baceo can with ordinary mapagemeut be made to average as much per pound as lint cotton, and with good care very mach mere, for there is nothing that offers so many inducements to skill in handling. Much work can be done in the Spring on the supply crop, before tobacce ts plant- ed, and it is off of the landand safely hou sed before the Fall term of school begins, thus giving ample time for seeding large crops of the cereals. I am fargher give some reasous why tobacco offers hope to the farmers of this county of a large town in their midst, and how that could benefit them, As has been remark- ed before on this subject, that the ware- house is the place where tobacco will be sold, and that the factory must be near by. No manufacturer can go to Winstou from Salisbury, buy his tobacco on the market there, pay at least $1.00 per hun- dred to get it to his factory, avd then compete with men on the market who waunfacture half million ef pounds right at the place where it is sold. This item of cost to get the Salisbary man’s tobac- co in his factory would be a good clear- ing on a moderate capital, and he cannot stand it. The sale of large quantities of tobacco in Salisbary will indnee its mau- ufactare near by, bringing a class of peo- ple wholly dependent upon the farm for anpplies. And every investigating far- mer knows too that the whole value of land arises from the labor directly ex- pended and reflected upon it from out- side industries. The interest of the land owner or farmer makes all related indas- tries a necessary part of his policy, and he looks with favor, and extends encour-— agement on the diversification, and effi- ciency of all productive occupations that depend upon his for prosperity. He will look to the fact that farm junds in the neighborhood of great manufacturing cit- ies have their value many times maltiplied by the demand made upon them for nec- essary consumption of such of his pro- ducts as will net bear distant transporta- tion. It is sulely due to the fact of con- tiguity that the fonr counties around Philadelphia average respectively $160, $127, $125, and $215 per acre. While equally as good lunds im the West bring less than $1.50 per acre. It is also estima- ted that all the lands in New York State are worth an average of $80 per acre, a value solely due te the reflection of value from related industries. The many cities and towns filled with laborers engaged in productive indastries different from Bet the farmer, bat dependent on him for lies. —T sere are no industries which give 80 mach life and vigor to communities as the tobacco interest. Upon it alove Win- ston, Darham, Oxford and Henderson depend for life, and it is the lesson learn- ed from these that Statesville, Hickory and Asheville are makiug vigoroas efforts to foster the tobaceo trade, in all ite de- rtments.

H. C. B. ————— error From the Advocaet*-by Request. Then and Now. In 1833 the writer was sent to school in Salisbury, N. C., then, a town of 1200 or 1400 inhabitants, with its small Court House in the cevtre of the crossing of the two main streets, half dozen stores in wooden buildings, owned and mavaged by elderly, substantialand reliable gentle- men, most of whom held their member- ship in one of ehe four small Churches of | ¥ the old borough, through which Ger. George Washington passed (und bieak- fasted!) during the Revolationary war, and where Gen. Andrew Jackson stadied law, A wale school taught by Mr. J. 8. John- son, of about 50 as frolicsome and clever boys us in any school of the same size. A female school, managed by a pious aud educated lady from New York, Mrs. Susan Nye Hutchison, who taught as fair and lovely a set of girls from Rowau and adjoining couutics as ever graced a school room. Then the traveling public passed throngh the towu ou horacback. in cartinges and stages, accommodated at the two amall hetela, whioh have been spared by the hand of progress and the tiery tongucd monster that has laid waste lsu wany more costly structures, though they are now put to other uses, aud three other more extensive modern aud well kept hotels bave taken their places.

Now Salisbury inhubitauts, governed by city regulations many elegant public and private buildings—a graded school for whites, 275 pupils, presided over in the most satisfactory mannery by Doctor Wiilborn is a town of nearly 3,000 with and # corps of assistants—a young col- lege on its first legs.

These anda few smaller schools for both races from the educational brigade of this modern city —while the dozens of handsome stores and shops filled with every article of ne- cessity demanded by our improved civili- zation and conducted by young, polite and elflicicut business men, go & great ways towards making this a commercial mart of considerable importauce.

The mate- rials supplying ammonia are cheaper than they were lust year. The figur- es used in estimating the relative commercial values have been modi- fied to agree with this state of things. The following figures are a fair ap- proximytion to the cost of these in- grediente in our inland towns at the present time: Phosphoric acid 10cts. per !b., was 12pects. last year. Ammonia 22}ets. per Ib., was 25cts. last year. Potash Gets. per Ib., was Gets. last year. Please bear this in mind in con- nection with the analyses to be re- ported, ‘The standard is the same on the average. ‘The lower valuations do not indicate that the articles are inferior to what they were last year. It only meaus that the ingredients are cheaper. As ao illustration; an anmoniated superphosphate of such a composition ns to have given a valuation of $40.00 by last year’s’ figures, would receive a valuation this ear of about $35.00 Just so, an acid phosphate valued last year at $30.00 would be valued at $24.00 by these figures.

The judgement ef tho Sapreme Court of the United States, iv the cases of the States of New York and New Hampshire against Louisiana, is of great importance, Had the court given its assent to the scheme at the bottom of the legislation ou Which these suits were based, North Carolina would have been brought before the court on a demaud for the payment of the special tax bonds. But the danger is now happily termivated, We had but little apprehension from the firat that the court would hold adversely to our idea of the constitational inhibition, but yet appreciated the grave consequences that would eusie from an unfavorable decis- jon, Uatil the final anvouncement we therefore were naturally anxious. The States of New Hampshire and New York had directed their respective attor- neys- general to bring suits in the name chen; the conrt_ pinned oa ganas O12 view urged in the argumen t, which we ; present ae interesting. It puts a quietas to the entire proceeding. — The Chief Justice delivering the opin- jon says: : ' “It is contended, however, that eee? withstanding the prohibition of the amendment the States may prosecuted these suits, because as. sovereign and trastee of its citizens the State is clothed with the right and faculty of making an imperative demand upon another inde- pendent State for payment of debts which it owes to citizens of the former, There is no doubt but one natien may if it see fit demand of another nation payment of a debt owing by the latter to a citizen of the former. But States are not nations, either as between themselves or towards foreign nations. They are sovereign with- intheir spheres,but their sovereignty stops short of nationality. Their politicals ta- tus at home and abroad is that of States in the United States. But it is said that even if a State as sovercign in trust for its citizens did surrender to thd Na- tional Government its power of prosecu- ting the claims of its citizens agaiust an- other State by force, it got in lieu the constitational right of suit inv the nation- al courts. There is no principle of iuter- national law which makes it the duty of one nation to assume the collection of claims of its citizeus against anether na- tion if the citizens themselves have ample means of redress without the interven- tion of their Government. Under the Censtitution as it was originally coustru- ed the citizen of oue State could sue av- other State in the courts of the United States for himself, and obtain the same relief that his State could get for him if jt should sue. Certainly when he can suc fur himself there is no necessity for power in his State to sue in his behalf, and we cannot believe it was intended hy the framers of the Constitution to al- low both remedies in such a case, There- fore the special remedy granied te the citizen himself must be deemed to have been the only remedy the citizen of one State could have ander the Constitution against another State for redress of his grievances, except such as the delinquent State saw fit itself to grant. In other words, the giving of a direct remedy to the citizen himself was equivalent to 41a- king away any indirect remedy he might otherwise have claimed through the in- tervention of his State upon any principle of the law of nations. It follows that when the amendment took away the spe- cial remedy there was uo other left. Nothing was added to the Constitution by what was thas done. The power tak- en away by the grant of a special remedy was pot restored by the amendment. The effect of the amendment was simply to revoke the new right that had been given and leave limitations to stand as they were. The evident purpose of the amendment was to prohibit all suits against a State by or for other States or aliens, without consent of the State to be sued, and in our opinion one State cannet create a controversy with another State within the meaning of that term as used in the judicial clauses of the Constitution by assuming the prosecution of debts owing by the other State to its citizens. Such being the case we are satisfied that we are prohibited both by the letter and spirit of the Constitution from entertain- ing these suits, and the bill in each of _ Tt should be used by all persons, oh an young, whenever any of the ove... medicine, ilarly affected to thing that to relieve. putlence s SS ue Liver Reg ris my practice I have Leen ay rece it as a purgative modicine. = has on the Wrapper the red Z andSignatureof J.

In 1878, in Maine, there were 478 divorces, in New Hampshire, 241; Vermont, 197; Massachusetts, 600; Connecticut, 401 ; and in Rhode Island 196; making a total of 2,113, and a larger ration in propor- tion to population than in France in the days of the reyolation, when that people were alenost lawless and Godless. They are a pretty set to talk about the immorality of the Southern States, or even Eutah. _>- Sevator David Davis, of Illinois, was married to Miss Burr, at the Tokay Vineyard, near Fayetteville, on yesterday. He desired it should be a very quiet affair, but the inquisitive fun-loving pub- lic were quite determined the old gentle- man should not have his own way about it. Leading papers of the country sent special reporters to the scene, so that all the particalars, and more, will doubtless be published. ><> a Tue total value of raw silk and cocoons produced in the United States during 1882 amounted to $120,000. The value of same articles imported into this coun- try during the same term was $16,090,- 210. This shows the great demand for these articles, and the rich harvest await- ing those who may go into the production of silk and cocoons, er oo The funeral of editor C. N. B. Evans, at Milton, N. C., last Sunday, was attend- ed by a very large audience, many ef the people coming from distant neighbor- hoods in the surrounding country. The ceremonjeg were unusually solemn and impressive, the ofticiating minister him- sclf scarcely restraining emotion. All seomed to realize that a good man had been taket away. > <> a The great Prince—perhaps the greatest Russia ever had—Gortschakoff, died at Baden-Baden, Sunday, aged 85 years. He was a prominent man in Russian af- fairs for about 50 years, and was consid- ered the ablest diplomat avd most elo- quent man of the Empire. He died full of honors. : ee The Legislature adjourned at 12 o’clock M. on Monday last. The last action of the Senate was in honor of C.N. B. Evans, deceased, who was a member of that body. Similar action was had in the House. er The Republican scheming just now is deyoted to finding some way to carry three or four Southern States, of which North Carolina is one. rT i eA Reduction of Internal Taxes. Before Congress adjourned, the bill for the reduction of Internal Revenne upon the various articles mentioned therein passed both Houses. In reply to inquiry the Commissioner says that the effect of the law wil] be as follows: That taxes upen capital and deposit of banks and bankers and national banking associa- tions, is repealed from this date, except such taxes as are now due and payable; that the reduction of the tax upon checks, drafis, &e., and upon matches, perfumery medicinal preparations and other articles imposed by schedule A, following section 3,489 revised statutes to take effect July tst, 1883; that after May Ist, 1883, the tax on manufactured tobacco and snuff will be eight cents per pound, on cigars three dellars per thousand, and on cigar- ettes 50 cents per thousand ; snuff, cigars aud cigarettes of the difference in the fayes recently imposed and the taxes as now amount to $10, these claims mast be presented within 60 days from May Ist. Regulations upon this matter will be im mediately issued and blanks will be fur- nished upon which claims can be made ; that the law provides for a large reduc- tion in special axes upen dealers com mencing May Ist, 1883. The commissioner also stated that im- wediate arrangements will be made for changing the ferm of the special tax stamps und stamps fur payment of taxes upon tobaceg, guuff, cigars, ete. 30 as to supply collectors with these stamps in time to meet the requirements of the tragle prior to May Ist, 1883. re eects _The Pennessee Legislature has passed a bill prohibiting the sile of obscene litera. ture and classes of /such literature as the is net ever $100 not less than $25.

The ef- forts to civillize them and make them self- supporting seem to be crowned with success, and they are rapidly learning and practicing many of the arts of civillized life. Consid- erable progress has been made ip education, A number of schools have been established amoung them and, one-fifth of the Indian youth of school age are now attending either day or boarding schools. In the matter of industry, the improve ment is even greater, and the agricultural and stock wealth of the redskins has quad- rupled in the lust few years. The following are some of the figures for 1868 and 1882; Acres of land-under cultivatien increased from 54,207 to 569,982, an increase of 955 per cent.; bushels of wheat produced in- creased from 126,117 to 673,933 bushels, or 482 per cent; hogs owned, from 29,890 to 424,740, or 1,350 per cent.; and shcep owned from 2,683 to 1,304,730, or more than 50,000 per cent. No state in the Union can make a betrer showing than these savages, and these fig— ures would seem to prove that the despised Indians can be civilized so asto become respectable and industrious moncy-making citizens. ee “That bey will a very popular preacher fund has been Wided, which, as wil! be seentrom our annual stal-ment, now amounts to over $25,909, | This fund is Increased every year from the three annual paymeatsol five dollirs per $),e00lnsurance.

A season of activity is near at hand, Spring is coming, with its pressing werk, Are farmers ready for sowing aml planting 2? Every implement should be provided beforehand, that no time may be wasted in making purchases or repairs after the work should begin. We have known a half day of plowing to be Jost because the whifiletrees were not at hand. Sone farmers start out with their spring plowing without a single plow-poiut in stock, and when oue is needed, the team is taken from the field and driv- en to the store. Such a loss of time isa serious matter, and should be thoughtfully guared against by am- ple provision of all such articles of the faru. It is a poor time to mend a harrow when it should Le at work in the field. We do not favor that economy—if it may be so ealled—that relies upon the neighbors for many of the tuols of the farm, There are certzio farm im plements that may be owacd in part- uership, as a roller or reaper, but the constant* borrowing of rakes, forks, etc, is not a wise and econumical prac- tice, Be provided with all these es- sential farm tools, and have them in good order, and at hand when the time arrives for using them. Now is the time tu look to these matters, andl make all uceded prepar- ations fur the busy days that will soon be here, In the peace of winter prepare for the war of spring,—Agri- culluralist. _-—-_ A few years ago we imported nearly three times as much eoffee from Brazil as from all other points, but now Nexice is gradually taking the trade away from her seutheru compettiter, and bids fair iu the vot very distant future to take the whole of it. In 1881 we imported 289,298,855 pounds of euffve frem Brazil, and 107,589,029 from ather points ; where- America, Columbia and the West Indies —exported to this country, this year, 121,218,500 pounds of coffee, or nearly one-third of the consumption of the coun- try. Aud the product of these countries, lying on the Gulf Mexico and the Carib- vean sea, is constantly increasing. Five years ago Mexice sent us only 6,337,063 pounds of coffee; to-day she ships 17,- 020,669 pounds ; Central America bas in- creased her exports to the United States during the same period from 13,868,955 to 22,149,111, and Veuezula from 39,138,- 035 to 43,369.170.

One sab- ‘bath morning, glancing in his direction, I saw him as usual, with bis head back en- jeying a nap, and right above him, in the gallery, a young man was rullinga quid of tobacco around in his mouth. As I looked, he took it out and poised it care- fully over the opened mouth. With a wicked smile, he took careful aim and dropped it squarcly inte the old man’s mouth, With a ‘gulp-lp-Jp the sleeper started ap and with his face as red as a beet rashed from the house.

We cannot stop the march of time with any medi- cine; but Brandreth’s Pills will remove the excessive lime from the system and prevent grey hair. They improve. the sight and tone| up the human body, so that the old man’s eyes will be undimmed and his nataral force una- bated even after seventy years, ~*~ Best in the World. Brandreth’s Pills have stood the test of forty- five years of use by the American people. They are entirely Vegetable. They are absolutely universal, for there is no disease they will not cure, if taken in time. They are safe for infants and adalta. They aim to ac- complish three things : first, to purify the blood; second, to cleanse and regulate the stomach and bowels; third, to stimnlate the kidneys and liver and purge away theashes of the sys tem and diseased matters of the body. By pur- ging wi.h these Pills constantly, a new body can be built up from fresh, healthy food in a few months. In this way, gout and rheama— tism, ulcers and fever sores c.n be eradicated in a few weeks. The worst cases of dyspepsia and costiveness can be cured by taking one or. two pills eyery night for a month. In casesof twenty years’ standing, gentlemen have been cured by taking one pill a night for a year. Brandreth’s Pills give to the human body, no matter how worn or decayed, the recuperative powers of youth. In their action, they imitate all wirh to die of old age, A hundred years ix the natnral limit of life, which ean only be reached by purging and purification. In general debility, nervous tremor, and mental depression Brandreth’s Pills havea marvelous effect. They have won the confi- dence of millions in all parts of the civilized world. Constitutions shaken by long residence in unwholesome climates, ur by sedentary hab. its, are wonderfully renovated by a course of this extraordinary medicine, which, powerful as is its action on the Whyle system, is perfect- ly harmless to the tenderest frame. The Piils are composed of rare balsam, without the ads mixture of a grain of any mineral whatever, or of any other deletecious substance, They operate directly, powerfully, and beneficially upon the Whole mass of blood ; nor can we question the fact when we sce indigestion cured, liver come plaints arrested, the oppressed lungs brought into healthful play, and every physical func— tion renewed and strengthened by theiragency.

I most cordially give my testimony as to the great value of Brandreth’s Pills, verified by eighteen yéary’ experience in my mother’s (the late Mre, Dr, Geo M Browne) tamily and my own. ‘rhey were at first tuken aa a “for- lorn hope,” fur the cure of a very severe case of Neuralgia of several years’ standing, the patient being completely prostrated by disease and the excessive use of yee, taken to dead- en the pain (by advice of her physician.) The effects were almost magical; in une month she was able to be up and walk around freely, and the disease has never returned, My mother was also cured of an attack of Inflamatory Rhumatism by the same means. About six years ago I was taken with what appeared to be a bad cold, but in a ehort time, synitoms of confluent Small Pox were developed, causing us mach alarm. I determined to try Brand- reth’s Pills as a remedy, and their was soon apparent. J was well mach soover than was expected, and without receiving a single mark or troubie of any kind. Jt is my firm belief, judging from the severity of the case, that had I gone through the regular routine rescribed hy physicians, I should have died, rom of many other instances of the value of Brandreth’s Pills in disease and sickness, which I will be happy to give to any one who ill ly to me. oo Mas.

And so there is a lonely river in the ocean of man- kind ; the line which separates it from common humanity is plainly visible to the eye. It is the Jewish race.— There is no man who approaches to | the Jew in his influence on mankind, | Ealestine, his home, was the central | chamber of God’s administration. He | was the priest and lawgiver to man- | ‘kind, and in all ages the Jews have been a wonder an‘ an astonishment. | As a nation the Jews have vo longer an existence, but as individuals they ure scattered all over the globe. No other nation can claim such a purity of blood, and certainly none can as- sert such antiquity of descent. The Jewish people, church and institutions still exist. All Christian churebes are but offshoots of the old Jewish Church. The Saviour of the world was a Jew and so were all of the ear- ly Christians, For our conception of a God we are undoubtedly indebted to the Jew.” The lecturer next spoke of the pe- culiar characteristics of Palestine, its unequalled richness of soil and its salubrious climate, making it essen- tially fitted to be the home of an agri- cultural people such as the Jews were at first. ‘This people, he said, grew rich in spite of themselves, and grad- ually ubandoned their agricultural pursuits, He next spoke of their in- stitations and the peculiar tenure by which the land was held, coming back at the end of each half century to the heirs of its first possessor. Their gov- ernment was in form a theocratic de- mocracy ; the civil and ecclesiastical functions were kept apart. Their or- ganic law, although given to them by God himself, was required to be rati- fied from time to time by the whole people. ‘Their legislation in reguril to ordinary affuirs vas founded on the most radical democratic priuciples ; it was in all its branches thoroughly representative. Each tribe was inde- pendent of all the others, although all united to form the nation. ‘Their code of criminal law was most remarkable, Only four offences were punishable by death, and some of the most hu- modern jurisprudence had their ori- gin in the laws of the Hebrew tribes, Senator Vance then spoke of the dis- r| persion of the Jews and of their hero- ic courage avd constancy to their re- ligion, With their dispersion came a change in their pursuits, and from an agricultural they have become eimi- nently a commercial people. In spite of all their persecutions, the Jews are creasing and their estimated numbers are now from 7,000,000 to 9,000,000. The lecturer next spoke of the phys- is unknown. there is more of average intelligence in the Jewish per in avy other ao number 0 in the world, se abomin-ble injustice of holding a class responsible for the sins of the mane and enlightened principles of still numerous, and they are now in- ical peculiarities of the Jews and said it was a fact that, as a rule, they were more healthy than the Gentile race. Crime is less frequent among them than among Christian communities ; their education is far ahead of the Gentile races. They coutribute large- ly to all Gentile charities, but seldom ask outside help for their own. Pov- erty is rare among them and pevury Ifa Jew fails in his business, his brethren set him up again and his children do not want for bread.

We owe to the Jew, if not the conception, at least the retention of the principle of monotheism. For sixty generations the heritage of the Jew was shame and despair. The manner in which they were persecuted shows that there is more of the diabolical 1n the human breast than ever was hatched in the councils of hell. All this they have survived to become the leaders of the world in politics, trade, and fiuance.

Alex. 8. Keiser, agreed upon a unanimous verdict at daybreak tu-day. The Rev. Mr. Keiser was found guilty, his li- cense to preach was revoked, and his pulpit taken from him, He is twen- ty-six years old, and was one of the handsomest and most talented young preachers in the State.

Miss Miller promised to do as he requested, and remained true to him. She furnished him part of her saviigs to help defray his college expenses. He finally graduated and was ordain- ed, but instead of marrying Miss Mil- Jer he courted and wedded a girl iu Pottsville. When Miss Miller heard of this she, by the advice of friends, brought a suit for $3,000 damages. ‘The young minister denied all the charges, but the church ordered an investigation, Miss Miller was on the witness stand five hours. Her testimony was not shaken. About 425 love letters were shown to have pass- ed between them. Hey reputation was proved to be in every other way highly respectable. The defense wus that the girl had signed a paper prom- ing to release Keiser for She testified that she was persuaded to sign the paper because her lover said it was necessary for him to haye it be- fore he could be ordained. ‘The money he gave her she used to defray ber expenses and those of their son. i was also shown that the girls was sent to a minister asking to ebris- not be discovered.

Her haunts are said to be between Blakeney’s bridge and Young’s bridge—not in the Tiller’s Ferry section as reported in eur last issue.

Their gov- ernment was in form a theocratic de- mocracy ; the civil and ecclesiastica] functions were kept apart. Their or- ganic law, although given to them by God himself, was required to be rati- fied from time to time by the whole people. ‘Their legislation in regaril to ordinary affuirs vas founded on the most radical democratic priuciples ; it was in all its branches thoroughly representative. Each tribe was inde- pendent of all the others, although all united to form the nation. Their code of criminal law was most remarkable. Only four offences were punishable by death, and some of the most hu- mane and enlightened principles of modern jurisprudence had their ori- gin in the laws of the Hebrew tribes. Senator Vance then spoke of the dis- persion of the Jews and of their hero- ic courage and constuncy to their re- ligion. With their dispersion came a change in their pursuits, and from an agricultural they have become eii- nently a commercial people. In spite of all their persecutions, the Jews are still numerous, and they are now in- creasing and their estimated numbers are now from 7,000,000 to 9,000,000.

There is no reason to suppose that the Supreme Court would go behind the plain facts of the record that a bill for raising a revenue “originated” in the House, that the Scuate proposed amend- bills” and that the House concurred in them. This the Con- stitution requires and this Congress did. Still wore ay unsettling of the settlement reached by the last Congress would alarm trade, demoralize mauufacture and might epdangey prosperity.

The ore isa heavy avriferous iron pyrite, containing only a trace of copper. They are working a lO stamp mill and the Meares Chlorination Process; proda- cing from $24 to $30 per ton ; and work- ing ovly about four tons per day. Their expenses are about $).200 per month— about 50 lands. The capacity of the mine, and the cost of the plaut considered, they are doing very little. With ten more stamps they sheuld ran say 20 tons instead of their present four tons per day, which would reduce average cost aud increase the production. If chlorination will pay on the small, it must pay well ron with some energy. ‘There seems to be no doubt but that the mine can produce wuch more ore than they are using at present, QuaKER CITY wine has been abandoned, most probably for want of They have a good veiu of sulphurets. ‘TUCKER MINE is three- fourth of a wile from the Phanix.

The property was opeved in 1873 by Mr. Jas. E. Claytev, of Baltimore, and has worked steadily ever since, at dimes employing over 1000 men. The product of copper has exceeded 10,000,000 pounds, of a value of over $2,000,000, The wine paid its shareholders in 1879, $210,000 cash in dividends, It bas been more largely worked than any other mine in the South and has proven that oar home mines have great value when properly developed. The ore is of ordivary rich- ness, a sulphide of copper and iron, but large quantities are mined—from 40,000 to 45,000 tons—yearly. The plant is ve- ry exteusive, consisting of some twelve smelting furnaces, refinery and = other smelting adjucts; and the whole outlay for doveloping and improvements cost over $600,000, all of which was paid for from protits, except $200,000. ‘The mive is now being sauk deeper aud promises greater profits iu the future tha iu the past, and will likely be the leading mine ot the Soath for many years to come.

Batler has, by a veto message, rebuked in the Massachusetts legislature a fault which more or less prevails in all legislative bodies, and leads te great deal of confusion and litigation. He retured with his disapproval a bill, and pointed out in his message that the measure had been 80 loosely drawn as to be eelf—con- tradictory and absurd. The language of a statute should be specific and clear, but it frequently is not; and in vetoing bills because ef clumsiness Gov. Butler has set a good exaniple.

But when the soil is deep and holds water to the detrimeut of the crops grown, and where a shallow soil dries up in hot weather, deep ploughing is audoubtedly a highly beneficial process. Deep ploughing acts beneficially in dry soils as well as in wet soils, where it is at all admissible. For in one case it per- mits the water laden with inorganic mat- ters to reach the roots of the plants, and in the other it permits deeper evapora- tion to carry off the superabandance of water—it breaks the crust se that hart- ful, stagnaut water may ‘escape ; it is, in other words, a mest useful kind of cheap drain. Theoretically alone, it is not safe to base calculation of profit upon deep ploughing. Practical experiments are too valuable in results to be left out of your calculations, Experiments have demonstrated on a small field, that 15 inch ploughing increas ed the crops over eight inch ploughing-of turnips six tous, of barley seven bushels, and of potatocs nearly a ton.

Ireland is steeped in direst poverty, because of the cold, grasping tyranny to which she has been subjected. an abject slave, who, at the nod of a human being like himeelf, may at any time be drives from his miserable mud cabin, a houseless, homeless, starving wanderer; forbidden to pluck the spoutancous fruits of the earth, or to ; of vt-' His condition is much the same in led in grating nod grain growing ; Bail that it beeame remunerative in pro- portion as the planters oould devote their attention to cotton, . ' The grain ing States of the West had ema ‘their slaves to get rid of a tless verting slave labor into cotton, and realizing immense profits therefrom. The logical conclusion from these srovisions and the more cotton grown y.the planter of the South, the great- er would be his profits. 4 ’ There were the meat growing Siates of the West, without market or means of transportation for their vast sur- plus productions, which were selling at almost nothing; wheat, for instance, being but twenty-five and forty cents per bashel. Wisely, then, did the Seuth adopt the policy of concentrating her slave labor apon all her open lands, devo- ting them tothe cultare of cotton, aml purchasing provisions from the West, thus giving to the States of the West a market, and furming an alli- ance between the English mauufac- turer, the Southern planter and the Western farmer. ‘Twenty years or more have elapsed since that time. Southern cotton is wo longer king—no longer has the monopoly in the British market. For india is now intersected by railroads, and transportation of her cotton is eusy. Brazil, the West Indies, Africa the East Indies, and the isles of the sea, are all successfully engaged in the cultivation and transportation of Cotton to England. The supply is equal to, if not greater than the de- mand. Slave labor being abolished, mere nominal cost, and receive for it from sixteen to forty cents in gold, per pound ; but raise it at great cost and are allowed from nine to eleven cents per pound, The Western States are now full of railroads and steamboats. They can reach the factories of New England, and the markets of the world without any difficulty ; the demand for their provisions is fully equal to the sup- ply, hence, their prices are enormous. Is any Southern State wise in still pursuing the policy which actuated and governed her twenty years ago? Certainly not. Georgia has recognized this fact, and to-day is highly prosperous. She is shipping fruits, vegetables, and grain, is extensively engaged in sheep raising, aud is covered with mills and factories. But North Carolina has not chang- ed. She is still raising cotton to the exclusion of meat and breadstuffs, and relying upon the West for her pro- visions, asin the days of 1859 and previous. Hence, her unhappy con- dition, it. a@ suid by the Southern states- men, previous to the war, “that if Western provisions were higher, or cotton lower, the South would have to raise her own meat and breadstuffs or, her ruin would be consummated. And that, too, when she had slave labor to produce the cotton with which Will not our ruin come but the quicker, now, that we have no slaves, that the provisions of the West are higher, and cotton vastly lower, if we continue to purchase those provisons? “All the dull, deadening pain —all the keen, maddening anguish—that to great masses of men are involved in the words, hard times” afflicts every profession, every avocation, in4 North Carolina at present. Why not the cotton farmers alone—why every profession and calling? That is best answered by illustration. The great pyramid of Gizeh, is composed of layers of masonry, the bottom layer of course supporting all the rest. Should this bottom layer become in any way injured, partly removed or contracted, the center of gravity would be distarbed, the litt'e capstone, two hundred feet above, would be thrown out of its perpen- tle whole mighty mass, from bottom to to) , and soon it would Jie upon the plain, a heap of ruins.

ALLcock’s PuasTers have been of such great service to me and mine that I feel it a duty to state the facts, as briefly as possi- ble, to induce others to usethem. My wife for many years was confined to her bed, suffering from spinal disease. After spend- ing a thousand dollars in vain effort to get cured, she applied three ALLCock’s PLas- TERS to the spinal column, one abore the other. Ina few days all pain left her. She applied fresh plasters every two weeks and in the course of two months she com- pletely recovered her health. At first she could hardly walk across the roem; each day she walked a little further, and now she is able to walk five miles without fa-— tigne. She still occasionally applies the plasters to her back, but she has been per- fectly well for upward of a year. LEWIS L. HAMMEL. CURE OF SPRAIN. 554 Main St., Hartrorp, Conn., ) April 26, 1879.

I could not do without them; I use one about every month. I have on a Belladonna Plaster and don’t like it at all, for it has not the power or strength of ALLCOocK's Porous PLasters. B.

No family should be without ALLCocx's Pokovus PLastexs; their healing powers are wonderful and their efficacy ~ far-reaching and lasting. For years past I have scen and known them to cure and relieve the most obstinate and distressing cases of rheumatism, kidney complaint, bronchitis, neuralgia, lumbago, inflamation of ‘the lungs and throat, paralysis, asthma, spinal weakness, and coughs and colds. In my own case they afferded me almost instant and permanent relief. My friends consider them an invaluable and speedy remedy tu. all kinds of aches and pains. They are blessing in disguise; and no wife or mother should be without them if she values her peace and comfort and freedom from ner- vous exhaustion and other ailments. As a strengthening plaster, also for backaches and weakness, they have no equal. I have never yet found a plaster so ‘inaicas and stimulating, or to give so much general sat- isfaction. Used in connection with Bran- DRETH's universal life-giving and life-heal- ing Prixs, no one need despair of a speedy restoration to good sound health. MRS. E. TOMPKINS.

When men talk about standing on the platform with Washington, Jefferson and Madisow in favor of a Protective tariff, they fail in their historic informa- tion. The tariff favored by these patriots was positively the lowost tariff ever levied in the United States. The duties barely averaged 7 per cent. The present tariff averages, wo think, about 46 per cent. Some difference! The Lonisville Courier Journal is doubtless correct jin this statement: “Since the Walker tariff of 1846, the Democratic party has stood squarely on the doctrine of ‘revenue only,’ going in 1856 so far as to declare in its natioual platform for ‘progressive free trade.’” vie Star ; The reeeipts of cot- ton at thi ‘t during the last week end- ing yesterdag@footed ap 1,830 bales, as : Me against _—' up to Mareh 18th, 1882, show n decrease of 654 bales.

(New York Correspondence San * Francisco ee) —_— Popular estimates of Vanderbilt{s wealth range all the way from three hundred to six hundred millions. There can be no ex- aggcratoin in the lowest of these figures, and may be but little in the highest. Speak- ing to a Times reporter the other day as to reported retention of bounds by the New York Central, Mr. Vanderbilt stated in- cidently that he himself held between sixty and seventy millions ofthe stock of the New York Central, which pays regular dividends of 1 per centja mounth; that there was about one hundred millions in the Vanderbilt family, and that besides this he was alarge bolder in the bonded debt of thg company, which ranks at over par. Ada this to;the sixty odd millions of reg- istered United States bonds that stand in his namé, and the enormous iriterest he is known to hold in other railroads, his real estate and propertics of various kinds, and the aggregates must be semething en- ormous, makeing him beyond doubt the richest manin the world. Nor is there probably in the whole country a man who lives on a smaller proportion of his income than does this millionaire. For a man of his wealth he is exceedingly economical, and irrespective of stock speculations, in which with bis immense command of capital, he is always winner, and the growing apprecia- tion of all his properties, he must, out of sheer saving from bp income, be adding millions every year fortune.

The following are among the most importaut of the amend- juents made: A provision has been added to Section 19 that “county board of edagation may for good cause, after thirty days’ formal potice, suspefid the county superintend- ent until next meeting of the said boards, hen he may be removed from his offiee, tt sufficient cause shall exist therefor, Aud the said boards shal! proceed to fill acaucy.” heaton id now provides that instead of superintendevt being empowered to ae « public school whevever he desires to draw an additional $3 from the schgol fand into his own pocketyhe only + cvivee pay for such visits when upon a written request of a majority of a school mittee such service may be necessary. Section 47 received a full share of leg- jslative attention, by which the superin- tendent’s pay has been reduced from $3 to $2 for » day's service, and bis annual cannot now exceed three per cent., instead of five as heretofore, of the school fund apportioned to the county, That officer will also in the future be required itemize his accounts monthly, aod make aflidavit thereto, “that the services therein charged have been in fact mady and rendered, aud that no part thereof haa been paid or satisfied,” and then, “if ed by the board of education,” the ¢ will be paid. ; Section 52 has a clause added, which provides that no committeeman ‘‘sball receive compensation for his services, but shall be exempt from jury service and working on public roads. Will these amendments, as some seem to think, damage ¢ducational interests ? We think not. —— ire Mr. Searboreugh, State Superiutendeut pf Public Schouls, thinks the last Legis- pure’s “amendatory act,” was very dam- puing to the educational canse of the State. He says: “The amendatory act is along step backwards and is very discouraging to the true friends of public schools und pop- plar edacation, but it cannot be undone pow. Let ua, therefore, do the best pos- sible under the circumstances and work wisely for a better system from futare = Lot us stand to our guns un- til the justice aud wisdom of our cause eel be recognized and ackuowledged by ll, : We do not knewn to what particular art of the amendment act Mr. Scarber- pugh refers, but probably to that reduc- jng the pay of the county superintendents from $3 to $2 per day, and restricting their visits to the schovls, making*them pubject to the call or ivvitation of the District School Committee. This dees pot strike us as a very dangerous or dam- aging change in the system, bat as one likely to give satisfaction te the people. Most tax-payers will be rather glad that the Legislature has limited expenses jn this way, especially ag the school com- mittee in each district can easily huve the services of the superintendent at any time they may be needed. The people in pome districts did object to paying a man $3 a day to ride aronnd and peep in At the school, and say a few words without profit, and the Legislature, it is presum- ed, knew the extent to which this feeling was cherished by their constitueats. We pnderstand they came very near abolish- jng entirely thig part of the school act, pat its friends compromised with the op- ponents of the law on this amendment. —_ 2 “Ia California walnut trees are grown as aregular crop. Ten years’ growth pro- daces a tree twenty inches in diameter. A waluut tree crop would prove a profit- able investment io any State of the Union, the demand for the wood for furniture slong is so large.”— Louisville Courier- Journal. Land owners in Westerff North Caroli- pa are admonished by such facts as these to plant trees ou the waste lands. There js scarcely a farmer in any part of the State who might not easily and at almost no cost, set a few acres in walnut or other timber trees which, in ten or twenty years, would repay him from two hun- dred to five hundred per cent. A planta- tion of trees could not however be expect- ed to prosper without some little annual pulture. The ground should be stirred at least once a year, and the weeds and the qadergrowth kept in subjection. They might also require some trimming pod shaping, so ag ty ingure straight and retty trees.

She has seen the South doing well in the fabrication of cotton goods. But it js net anly New England that is affected by such movements, and which should be cautioned against excessive boasting—the expression of a little local pride is always allowable.

If all the people in New England can read and write there is no peed for Fed- era] aid to be betowed in that quarter. At the South there is need because the people are illiterate. The Federal gor- ernment spent billious to free the dar- keys, and then reconstracted State after State at the South to make them voters. Now, then, if the government feels that their illiteracy, as voters, is a menace to the stability of the government and our institutions, would it seem ip order to make some provision for their education. Mr. Logan also insists that no more shall be allowned any State than that State raises. In other words, his policy is to give largely to those who have an abun- dance, avd spariugly to the poor: that is about the height of Logan’s philosophy. —faleigh News- Observer. — Fate’s Fatality.

The answer is that it is the moon of March, which Tenn calls “the roming moon of daffodils.” The old rule is that Easter shall fall on the 2, z, Pe i e t i d s weeks, when, finding my health was suffer- ing from the cold, I left for the South. A gentleman farming near Le Mars, who the winter of 1880-81 to 40 de- grees below zero, and™that owing to the heavy fall of snow only one train reached there in six weeks, and that during the summer ot 1881 the heat was 110 de— grees in the shade. Such a climate as this may suit the Germans, Swedes and Russians, who are used to long, hard win- ters, but Englishmen will do well to leave them in possession, and go to the South- ern States, which offer a better climate, and just as good§advantages.:I am free to admit that an industrious man can make money easily in the Northwestern States, yet he will have to deny himself many comforts, and in many cases be far re moved from a neighbor, and religious and educatiopal advantages, both for himself and family. He will find the climate any- thing but agreeable, for as soon as the severe winter of six months is ended, summer comes and continues until the frost appears again, and, moreover, he will grow prematurely old. Many emigrants goto the Western States of California, Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico, and Colorado, where they find employment in the extensive gold, sil- ver, avd copper mines. Texas- receives wany thousands. The climate in many parts of that State ir very fine, and it has many advantages to offer the emigrant. Some of your readers may ask why the Southern States with all their varied at- tractions and advantages are not brought to the notice of the public? It is because the land has been long settled, and be. longed to large planters who were broken up by the war of North v. South, 1861- 1865, but now belongs to a greater num- ber of people who are too poor to advertise individually, and too indifferent to an association for promoting emigration to the South. The Yankees themselves, know very little of there sources which lie undeveloped down South; for many years after the war few Northerners cared to go South to live, fearing they would pot be received; this feeling having passed away, many are breaking up their homes North and settling down in the more genial cli- mate South. I may say here, I never met a more kind-hearted and hospitable people than in the Southern States. I desire to draw the attention of intend- ing emigrants to one of the Southern States, viz, the western district of North ‘arolina, where I resided for nearly eight months of last year, which lies between the “Blue Ridge,” a chain of mountains extending from lennsylvania to Georgia, andthe “Smoky Mountains,” which form the western boundary between North Carolina and Tennessce ; it is a high pla- teau or table land, very much broken up by mountain ranges and peaks, and wa- tered by numerovs streams; the altitude varics from 2,000 to nearly 7,000 feet above the sea. The district is made up of 16 counties, the aggregate area of which is over 7,000 square miles, or nearly five million acres. The population, by the census of 1880, was 139,522, or about 20 svuls to the square mile, showing large rooin for emigration. The sparseness of the population is largely due to the lack of railroad facilities up to three years ago, but now the Western North Carolina Rail- rod is being rapidly built through the middle of the district, and will by next summer be in the very heart of this moun- tain country. This line starts from Salis- isbury, N. C.,and commences the ascent of the Line Ridge at Henry’s Station, the secnery of which is mgst picturesque and romantic, and the engineering of this part is the grandest in the United States, Ab»ut twenty-three miles from Henry’s it reaches Asheville, a flourishing and beau- tiful town, of between 4,000 and 5,000 in- habitants, and much resorted to by con- sumptive persons and invalids ; it is only | 36 hours distant from New York by rail. The soil aud climate are adapted to the sugcessful growing of maize, wheat, oats, rye, barley, buckwheat, tohacco, and nearly all kinds of fruit, and vegetables, but as a grazing country I would more particularly recommend it; all grasses grown there flourish remarkably well, even on the highest peaks. Stock re- quire very little shelter or attention in the short, winter ; horses, mules, cattle, sheep goats, and pigs can be raised there very profitably. By far the greater part of the country is still covered by the original forest, consisting of such valuable woods as walnut, ash, cherry, locust, poplar, birch, hickory, chestnut, and various oaks. The whole is well watered by beautifully clear streams, from rivers down to springs, affording a vast water power not to be surpassed in any country. There are thousands of acres of a variety of soil which can be bought from 4san acre, and rich black soils can be found 5,00 feet above the sea level. In regard tominerals, the mountains and valleysabound in gold, silver, copper, iron, nickel, marble, soapstone, mica and | corundum. For the sporteman the country affords such shooting as bear, panther (scarce), wolf, wildcat, deer, rabbit, wild turkey, ont, pasties and mari, sad SO , “I guess I'll hang out s shi An Oil Citizen a pi is daughter recently, and the The piano had arrived all right, but the “forte” hadn’t got there yet.

Oalv I wanted to know what it was about, that’s all.” “Well, it was about time you got out, if that’s all,” retorted Mr. Spoopendyke, ripping away at the hole in his sleeve to see if the stitches. were strong either side of the cent. “It was about making laws, that’s what it was about.” “But that’s just the part I don’t un- derstand,” insisted Mrs. Spocpendyke. “A law issomething about being arrested, but I can’t get it through my head how they make them.” “You got the law part right,” rumina, ted Mr. Spoopendyke, “‘and I’m not sure but what you've hit it pretty close on the density of your head.

He has had a prominence, both in the news- papers and the public mind, altogether cut of proportion to his consequence, in any point of view, and one which, in the face of the intelligence usually accerded the human family, is a little difficult to understand. For this, however, and for any mischief that may have resulted from it, it must be admitted that the good nature of journalism is largely responsible. But that is past. Let it make amends in the future by tystematically ignoring Wiggins and his prophecies. Let them be consigned to the oblivion of profound silence and contempt, so to speak. —Here is a little gossip about the com- ing fashions, which the {des of March warn us are close at hand. The Hussar jacket will be a favorite style for young ladies, ornamented in military style. A really novel jacket is of mastic gray or wood brown, trimmed with cashmere braid in all the blended tints of the Orient. Pelisses will continue to be worn in utility suits, and will assist in disposing of many odd skirts whose top picce is useless. Some very stylish single shawls are imported, quite of the old-time Stella fashion, which will prove a desirable wrap for dress and veranda airings in the country. There is also the wide, long scarf, so useful for wrapping about one’s throat and head as recautions against draughts and sudden cHanges.

Ved hes Ulieed thonc>. : —Ex Governor William Sprague, of Rhode Island, was married Thursday night in Staunton, Va., to Mrs. Dora Ing Calvert, who had arrived from Greenbrier, W. Va., a few hours before the ceremony was performed. Upon the arrival of the lady, who is understood to be divorced, sak: who is a native of Connecticut, but has been residing in West Virginia four. teen years, the ex Senator applied for, license, but was refused, the clerk telling him that the lady must be a resident of Staunton for the license to be y granted. The result was that Mrs. Cal- vert presented herself to Clerk Argen- bright, and said: “I am a resident of this city,and have no other residence in the world. Itis my usual place of abode, and if necessary yeu can have my affids- vit to that effect.” Rev. Mr. Hulihen, of the Kpiscopal church, having then been sent for, united the two in the bonds of holy matrimony, in the Virginia Hotel parlor, in the presence of the proprietor, Mr. J. D. Crowle, his wife and two others The 1 o'clock train took the bridal couple northward Thursday night. —A great many trousseanx are being prepared for weddings which are to take place afier Kaster. We have been shown a bridal-dress which is very beautiful and comparatively simple. Te dress, which is of white satin, has a skirt front draped over itself, the plaita of which, stopping about two inches from the waist line, let fall the satin in the shape of a bag, widen- ing until about half way up tie skirt to- ward the left, and finished into a quilling. The bag part appears to be fastened by a light wreath of orange flowers. This skirt is trimmed round the feot with three nar- row pleated flounces; the train, very sober- a draped, is finished in handsome fan- draped pleats, The,toilet for the bride’s mothar is of plain nasturtium-colored vel- vet, brocaded velvet, and satin to match. The foot is trimmed with Empire puf- fings of satin, over which falls the edge of the skirt-front of brocaded velvet, cut out in equate turret-blocks. The train, with puff, is of plain velvet, and is finished into two-large round plaits. Velvet bodice, with collar and very deep cuffs of point lace. The bridesmaids’ dresses are ot pale blue surah, with peaked dark green velvet bodiees, trimmed with very small buttons. Collar and cuffs of Venetian point. The skirt is trimmed with puffings and scarfs crossing each other. Leghorn hats lined with plaited blue surah and trimmed with a cluster of pale blue os- trich tips—a unique but extremely pretty and hecoming style of toilet. New materials for che manufacture of paper are constantly being diseovered. It is stated that a very good paper is now manufactured in Naples in an exceedingly primitive way from the bark of a kind of daphne. The fresh bark is ground between stones into a very fine pulp, and as much as is required for a sheet is thrown into a caldron containing boiling water. The pulp spreads in an equal layer over the water, and is then taken out. In many parts cf Sweden there are enormous quan- tities of bleached mosses which ; rew many ages ago. A mavufac-ory.of paper from this matcrial has begun operations at Jon koping, and is said to be turning out a product of excellent q iality. As Hon. R. G. Frost, of Missouri, was ejected from the House on the last day of the session but one, so that bis Rerubli- can competitor might diaw the pay of member for two years, he delivered the following parting shot: “I can congratu- late myself on the fact that my exit from thie hall will be a matter which will eon- cern the public very little. But you, too, Mr. Speaker, in a few short hours wiil quit that chair, and ycur party will quit this floor, and this to the satisfaction of all, not by the decision of a malignant partisan tribunal which has not heard your case, or pretended to hear it, but by the impartial, ,well-considered verdict of the public, which has judged you, sir, and judged your party.” Then the House voted, and Mr. Frost was ejected by a strict party vote. —In New York a man and his wife have been querreling so much over the naming of their children that tBe affair has got into the couris on proceedings for divorce.

Thetable was arare artistic beauty: in the centre a large plate mirror formed a lake, on which toy ships trembled, and toy swans were swimming, the banks were muss grown, on which toy boss and girly were lolling; some fishing with tiny rods, and some imitating mother Eve, by gazing into the lake at their own shadows. It was a minature picnic scene, beautifully wrought, and was mach ad- mired, while the more substantial part of the feast was being served.

Suggestions, As many of the public school teachers of the county will not be engaged for some time, in the actual duties of the schovul-room, a few thoughts in the form of suggestions, we trust, will not be im- proper. There are some, who are not subscribers to an educational paper, Al- low me to say to such teachers, that you must by all means have an eye to the fin- ture. If you would be wise, act not the part of the slaggard in educational imat- ters, ut subseribe for an educational jour- nal at once. There is no peutral greund for the teacher. Do you desire to cuter the school-rgom next tall? We advise you to be wide awake. You can not give life to others unless you first live yourself. You mast continue to drink from the pure fountains of intellectual light and knowl- edge. We say most emphatically, that the teacher, more emphatical than other mer, cannot afford to be without an educa- tional journal, Avail yourself of every opportunity to secure the highest mental development, Once every month, every 2d Saturday, attend the County ‘Teach- ers’ Association. Many of our teacher do not fully consider the importance of this work. Come forward at the bext meet- iug as it will be aw important one. Be willing to assist others and at the same time be benefited fikewise. Here we be- come acquainted with each other. Here we concert and enact measures which will enable us to grapple with and over- come many of the difficulties’ that beset the pathway of the teacher. Words of aympathy and_encouragement are spoken and there springs ap ‘a fellow-feeling that makes us wondrous kind.” Next, and none the less important, is our ‘Teachers’ Institute. Here a wide field is opened, and you have an oppor- tunity to express av opivion in the deci- sion-of all questions pertaining to the management and discipline of the schools. You ean have the satistaction of imparting Picnowledge to others, should you be so fortunate as to have it, and you never will have it fully outside of the iustitute; and you can bear your humble testimony to the trath of the scripture, that ‘tit is more blessed to give than to receive.” We would forewarn you iv this matter, in case the County Board make the usual appropriation. Full notice will be given in due time, and you should be ready. Normal instruction will be yqur next de- sire, and the ball thus set in wotion will cuptinue to roll until the schools open in the fall, when your pupils can “driok from a fresh fountain aud uot from a stagnant pool.” L.

We have taken occasion several times, speaking of diversified industries, to call the attention of our people own- ing river and creek lands, or wet land, to the great value of planting osiers. We doubt whether at this time any orchard er crop will pay so well, leaving out the fact that lands too wet for cultivation can be used and made profitable. There are in New York little townships tliat prodace over 1,000 tons of willows. Fre- quently this crop is sold green as cut and brings about $30 per ton, and this would clear $500 per acre er more. Now, we have another idea: What are called the false banks on Janies river are very rich and would produce osiers as thick as wheat, and of the best quality. This crop beside its money valae, would pro- tect the banks and. thus prove deoably valuable.

Deep ploughing acts beneficially in dry soils as well asin wet soils, where it is at all admissible. For in one case it permits the water laden with inorganic matters to reagh the roots of the plants, and in the other it per- mits deeper evaporation to carfy off the superabundance of water —it breaks the crust so that hurtfui stag- nant water may escape ; it is, in vth- er words, a most useful kind of cheap drain. Theoretically alone, it is not safe to base calculations of 1 r-fil upon ploughing. Practical experiments are too valuable in results tu be left out of your calculations. . Experiments have demonstrated ou a small field, that fifteen inch plough- ing increased the crops over eight inch ploughing—of turnips six tons, of barley seven bushels, and of pota- toes nearly a ton. In superficia. ploughing the plant elements are soon exhausted by annual cropping ; und unless these elements be fre quently returned to this thinly culti- ted svil remunerative crops canfiot long be realized. ° ‘The adv oeates of superficial plongh- ing ofien deny that the soil hag been manured, yet it is found that it is left to rest in grass for a number of years, and grazed at that, sv that io fact the droppings of stock and the thick ear- petor mat of yrass routs do actually our annual stat nent, now amounts lo over $xh,000. ‘This fund is Increased every year (rom the three | It ts the intention of our Board of Directors to tn- crease this fund to an amount which will in any emergeney be fully adequate to meet any possibile deficfency arising from a failure to receive enough from an assessment to pay a loss. great superiority over all co-operative associations, Not one of them has this all linportant feature.

On the other side of the Santa Fe water tanks, recently, a fight oceurred between a rattlesnake and a black- snake. The rattlesuake was apparent- ly on a journey, and the meeting was quite accidental. At first the rattle- snake sought tu avoid a difficulty, but when the blacksnake pressed the mat- ter he halted and folded bis length intoa coil. The blacksnake glided around in swift circles; the rattle- suake never changed its position. But the circles still diminished in size;and us the blacksnake drew close the rat- tlesngke appeared to grow confused. His rattles ceased to give out the sharp sound, and his head drooped as though vertigo was seizing him.— The blacksnake seized by a lightuing movement the rattler by the throat, and, winding him up in folds, the two rolled over aud over together, and in a few womeuts the rattlesnake ceas- ed to breathe. An examination of the dead body of the rattlesnake revealed a fracture in the spine as complete as if doue by a blow with aclab. The rattlesnake measured, dead, five feet and three inches, — ——- -ebo Supreme Court Decisions. Stites not Collecting Agents for their Citizens. A decision. was rendered by the Supreme Court to-day in the cases of the State of New Hampshire and the State of New York against the State of Louisiana and her exccutive offi- ces. ‘These were suits on the repudi- dividual b- n tholders of New Hamp shire and New York transferred to their respective States in order that the States might bring the-e suits in this Court against the State of Loui: « ana to compel Qhe latter to fulfill the obligations. This court holds that the suits arein effect not suits of the States of New Hampshire and New York, but suits of individual citizens of those States ayaiust another State, that the States of New Hampshire and New York are merely endeavor- ing to actas collecting agents fir their citizens, and that this cannot be allowed. The judicial power of the United States does not extend to suits commenced and prosecuted. These in effect are by individuals against one of the States of the Union. The actions cannot be sustained, and the bills are dismmissed. The opinion is by Chief Justice Waite. A decision was also rendered to-day iw the case of Andrew Antoni against Samuel C. Greenhow, treasurer of the city of Richmond, Va., brought here hy appeal from the Supreme Court of Appeals of Virginia. This was a suit to test the constitutionality of the aot of the General assembly of Virginia of January 14th, 1882, en- titled an ac “to prevent frauds,” etc., popularly, known as the “Riddleber- ger Bill,” which forbade tax collee- tors to receive in payment of taxes any coupons of the State bonds of 1877 and 1879, antil the genuineness of such coupons should have been established by judicial proceedings, This court holds that the obliga- tions of a conetract between the State and its bondholders has not been im- paired by the law in controversy, which does nothing more than make change in the nature of the remedy for its enforcement, The judgment of the Supreme Court of Appeals of Virginia is affirmed.

It is marvelous Low they purify the blood. After two doses, the effect is seen in brightness of the eyes and clearness of the skin. All pim- ples and eruptions vanish like magic under the influence of this purifying pnrgative. We cannot stop the march of time with any medi- cine: but Brandreth’s. Pills will remove the excessive lime from the system and prevent grey hair. They improve the sight and tone up the human body, so that the old man’s eyes will be undimmed and his natural force una- bated even after seventy years, Best in the Werld. Brandreth’s Pills have stood the test of forty- five years of use by the American people. They are entirely Vegetable, They are absolutely universal, for there is no disease they will not cure, if taken in time.. They are sefe for infants and adulta. They aim to ac- complish three things : first, to purify the blood; second, to cleanse and regulate the stomach and bowels; third, to stimulaté the kidneys and liver and purge away the ashes of the sys tem and diseased matters of the body. By pur- ging wi.h these Pills constantly, a new body can be built up from fresh, healthy food in a few months, In this way, gout and rheuma- lism, ulcers and fever sores cun be eradicated in afew weeks. The worst cases of dyspepsia and costiveness can be cured by taking one or two pills eyery night for a month. ‘In casesof twenty years’ standing, gentlemen have been cured by taking one pill a night for a year. Brandreth’s Pills give to the human body, no matter how worn or decayed, the recuperative powers of youth, In their action, they imitate the rapid changes of the youthful body. We all wish to die of old age, A hundred years is the natural limit of life, which can only be reached by purging and purification. In general debility, nervons tremor, and mental depression Brandreth’s Pills have a marvelous effect. They have won the confi- dence of millions in all parts of the civilized world, Constitutions shaken by long residence in unwholesome climates, ur by sedentary hab- its, are wonderfully renovated by a course of this extraordinary medicine, which, powerful ax is its action on the whole system, is perfect- ly harmless tu the tenderest frame. The Pills are composed of rare balsame, without the ad- mixture of a grain of any mineral whatever, or of any other deletecions substance, They ofterate directly, powerfully, and beneficially upon the whole mass of blvod ; nor can we question the fact when we see indigestion cured, liver com. plaints arrested, the oppressed lungs brought into healthful play, and every physical func— tion renewed and strengthened by their agency. Letter from a Gentlemen Ninety Years Old.—Long Life from Use of Brand- reth’s Pills, PRAIRIE DU CHIEN, Wis,, Feb, 11, 1882, I am in the ninetieth year of my eatrhly pil,rimage, and before passing to another, and [ trust, a better world, 1 wish to bear testimo. ny to the great virtues of Brandreth’s Pillsas a household remedy, ‘hey are the best blood purifiers and cleansers of the stomach and bow- els in the world. f have rgized a family of 10 children, been blessed with Varee wiver,and my faniily experience reaches over seventy years. For oyer forty-five years I have known and believed in Brandreth’s Pills. They have cured me of indigestion, costiveness, dyspepsia: and the females of my family have found them invaluable at all times, I also wish to say that I have found Aicocx’s Porous Puas- TERS very useful in breast pains, backache and weak muscles. ALFRED Brunson, A,M., D_D. CURE OF NEURALGIA, Taken asa ‘‘Forlorn Hope,” Brandr eth’s Pills Effect.a Magical Cure.—Small- Pox Cured. Schenck Ave., East New York, April 12, 1880. I most cordially give my testimony as to the great value of Brandreth’s Pills, verified by eighteen years’ experience in my mother’s (the late Mre, Dr. Geo M Browne) tamily and my own. ‘They were at first taken as a “fur— lorn hope,” for the cure of a very severe case of Neuralgia of several years’ standing, the patient being completely prostraied by disease and the excessive use of opium, taken to dead- en the pain (by advice of her physician.) The eflects were almost magical; in one mouth she was able to be up and walk around freely, and the disease has never returned. My mother was also cured of an attack of Inflawatory Rhumatism by the same means. About six years ago I was taken with what appeared to be a bad cold, but in a short time, symtoms of confluent Small Pox were developed, causing us much alafm. I determined to try Brand. reth’s Pills as a remedy, and their efficacy was soon apparent. J was well much sooner than was expected, and without receiving a single mark or trouble of any kind. Jt is my firm belief, judging from the severity of the case, that had I gone through the regular routine reserfbed by physicians, I should have died. know of many other instances of the value of Brandreth’s Pills in disease and sicknens, which I will be happy ‘o give to any one who will apply to me.

As many mutilated cepies are in cir- _Culation, we give the following authorized version; people met in the Ulster Hall who had received a ticket of admission on the express ground either that they had received blessings during the wegk, or were earnestly seeking sal- vation. It is not given to us to know who have been truly converted—few or many—and it is right to state no at- tempt was made to count converts. This was repudiated a)| through, That multitudes professed to enter ‘into peace and give their hearts to Christ is beyond all peradventure. We pro- nouce no judgment on what is a work of God and not of man, That there shall be a reaction and that some will fall away may excite no surprise, Apart altogether from the blessing of priceless value that my have re- sulted in the conversion ot s: me Jogt souls, this movement has, in our judg- rent, done good—yea, great good. Ist. It has excited a deep and wide- spread interest in religion. It has, if we may so express it, filled the air with the subject of salvation. Qud.

Knox ina late num- ber of the Belfast Witness thus refers ito the work of tuese evangelists in | Belfast : These eminent evangelists have come and gone. It is too soon to pro- nounce absolutely on the permanence of their work. That that work was inarvellous in its outward aspect is beyond all question. Within the lim its of a week they moved—or rather, as we feel inclined to say, God by them moved—Belfast as it never was moved before. We remember the great awakening of ‘“fifty-nine.” We remember the former visit of the bre- thren, and, very recently, the visit of Whittle and M’Granahan. On none of these occasions was this great com- munity so stirred as during tlre past week. No doubt there was intense interest awakened before these breth- to{ren arrived. The spirit of expecta- to testify for the Master. anointing becomes a mighty power for rood, 3rd. This movement has brouhgt to- gether ministers and members of dif- ferent churches to work in harmony the spirit of a common brotherhood, aud without avy compromiec of prin. ciple, they threw themselves heartily into the work. 4th.

His appeals all anticipation, The first mecting was for Christians, and was announc- ed to be held on Sabbath morning at eight o'clock. Before seven o'clock one of our largest churches was crowd- ed, and the overfow completely filled an adjuining church, From that pre- liminary service the interest was iu- tensified day by day till the closing scene, when 2,700 men met at nine at night in St. Enoch’s, the overflow fill- ing two adjoining churches and still the street was crowded by men who could find no admission, What was it all about? What was the magnetic force that moved and drew together such multitutdes in this great centre of business commerce— this community of thoughtful, hard- headed men? The people of Belfast and Ulster are no fanatics. They are grave and thoughtful, and distin- guished above all things for sound practical judgment, And yet, if we be permitted the expression, they were fairly swept off their feet by two American Christian gentlemen, who came simply to tell the old, old story —yrace abounding for the chief of sinners. ‘The style of Mr. Moody has been often described. He is no great scholar. He is not an orator in the scholastic sense. He makes no attempt to startle men by the novelty of his doctrine. In point of fact he docs not seem to either preach or lecture. Ile simply talks to the people, but he talks like a man whose soul is on fire. Whose heart is yearning for one ob- ject—the salvation of the people. The weapon he wields is the redeeming love of Jesus. His doctrine ever cen- tres in the Cross. With beautiful simplicity, and yet with overwhelm- ing power, he brings the mysteries that hang around the Cross to bear on the heart and conscience. He lifts up Christ, and he honors the Spirit as the Divine Agent in applying the whole work of redemption, ‘Those talks of his (as we like to call them) about Jesus and His love are so earn- est, so real, so pictorial, so touching, that his hearers are soon lifted out of the region of criticism, and made to feel themselves fuce to face with God, With rare sagacity, the speaker seems to know when his hearers are melted, broken down, or whatever men wish to call it. When a keen edge is put on conscience, and the heart is burst- ing with the question, What must I | do to be saved ?—then his own great soul seems to glow with fresh ardour, and makes his appeal for immeciate decision for Christ. Herein is one se- veret of his power, Whatever be his theme, all argument, illustration, and anecdote converge to the one issue— decision, immediate decision for eter- nity. Under such a ministry it can hard- ly be wondered at that above 2,000 of all his aim in every service scems to be to bring the hearer to immedi- ale decision. Sih? Surely this brief and and mem- crable visit lays on ministers and all Christian workers a specials obliga- tion to be watchful see faithful in gathering the fruit, in building up young Christians, aud guarding them against the assaults of ull who are not in sympathy with the work; in deepening and extending that work; and in fostering the spirit —— » “When I determined to go to farming, five years ago, IT saw that it wonld not do to farm in the old I saw farmers around me getting poorer every though they worked like slaves. way. day, I saw their land so that each year their yield was Beantier, and their I saw that it was still the plow following the axe, and that as fast as a furmer starved out a pieco of Worse than all, I saw that my own land = rested them starving farms less valuable. land he cleared out a new piece. to small farmers was 35 PER CENT.

TL knew that Georgia was blest with the best con- ditions of season and soil, and that if properly treated it would yield large re- sults. : I therefore selected sixty-five acres of the poorest land I h’ad aud went to work. The gist thing of course was ta enrich To do this there was but one way to feed it, and give it more food than the soil. the crops took from it, and above all to I knew that certain phosphatic manures stimulated the soil so that it produced heavy crops fora while aud then fell off.

This is the basis of extensive farm- ing, and it will always give land that is richer year after year. I bad a cotton plant analyzed, and found that I needed give it proper food, I wanted none of these.

I therefore deter— mined te buy chemicals, and mix them with hamua, muck, deeayed leaves, stable manure and cotton sced till ! had secur- ed exactly what was needed. I did so and, at last produced a perfect compost for cotton. 1 then ascertained that my crop of eight bales had taken out of each acre of my land as much of the constitucats of cotton as was held iv 250 pounds of ny ning of the closing day above 2,000, stirred to fresh courage cand fidelity | This fresh | for the salvation of the people.

The result was that I made four bales extra, I then restored double what the twelve bales had taken out and made twenty-three bales. I doubled the resto- ration the next year and got forf ven bales. I doubled again, and this year have at least eightybales. “The manure cost me $3.60 a thousand pounds. The first year! put 500 pounds to the acre—cost $1.80 an acre, or $11] for sixty-five acres. Bat my crop rose from eight te twelve bales; the extra four bales giving me $200 surplas, or $83 net ou my manere. Next year my manure (1,000 pounds to acre) cost me $235 ; but my crep increased to twenty-three bales from eight on unmanared land, These extra bales give $750 or net profit on ma- nure of $516. The nextyear I used 2,000 pounds per acre at cost of $7.25an acre or $471 for total. Bat my erop went from eight to forty-seven bales, giving increas- ed jueome of $1,500. This year I used 4,- 000 pounds on an acre costing $14.50, or $942 for total manure. But my crop is at least eighty bales with this manure, where it was eight without. This increase of seventy-two bales is worth $3,600. » Deduct cost of manure $940 and we have $2,650 as the profit on usc of manare.” “And then the land is so much rich- er. “Certainly.

J have a few acres ob which I put 10,000 _ponnds of compost as an experiment, and every acre of it will give me three bales this year.” | TUE FORMULA FOi: MIE COMPOST. ° Here is my formula: Take thirty bush- els of well-rotted stable manure or well rotted organic matter, as leaves, muck, lete., and scatter it abont three inches thick upon a piece of ground so situated rial office, there is much in hi | that water will not stand on it, bat shed r ae h © t yo ‘died | off in every direction. The thirty bash- ct cue ee ene ele will weigh about nine hundred poauds; with advantage. His address seems) 1. two hundred pounds of good phos- phate, which cost me $22.50 per ton, de- llivered, making the 200 pounds cost | $2.25, and 100 peunds kainit, which cost lime by the ton $14, delivered, or 70 cents | for 100 poands, and mix the acid phos- | phate and kainit thoroughly, then scatter evenly on the manure. The next thirty bushels green cotton seed and distribute ‘evenly over the pile, and wet them thor- ‘oughly; they will weigh nive hundred | pounds. Take again two hundred pounds ‘acid phosphate and seven humired pounds kainit, mix, and spreadever the seed, be- gin on the manure and keep en ia this way, building up your heap layer by lay- ‘er until you get it as high as convenient, then cover with six inches of rich earth | from fence corvers, and leave at leust a week ; when ready to haul to tho field cut with a spade er pickaxe square down and wix as thoroughly as possible. Now, we Rave thirty bushels of manure weigh- | ing nine hundred pounds, and three hun- dyed pounds chemicula in the first layer, land thirty bashels cotton seed weighing | nine hundred pounds, aud three bundred) | pounds of chemicals in the second layer, laud these two layers combined for the perfect compost. Yoo perceive that the weight is 2,400. Value at cust is; 30 busbels cottun seed, 124 cta. . $3 75 400 pounds acid phosphate, . 450 500 pounds kanit. ; 1 40 Stable manure nominal, —— Total. 2s ee . $9 65 Or for the 2,400 pounds a total value of $9 65 This mixture makes practically a per- fect manure for cotton and a splendid ap- plication for corn. It restores to the soil everything the cotton took from it, except silica, which is in the soil in inexhausti- ble quantity. So that whem you putina larger quantity of these than the cottou took out your soil is evidently richer. I've shown you the money profit in ma- nure. I’ve shown you the added value it gives toland. There are many other advantages. You make your crop quick- er and with less danger. I made last year, wark this, forty-seven bales on sixty-five acres in three months and five days. It was planted June 5th and the caterpiller finished it on September 10th, I showed the agricultural society 4 stalk five feet high 126 bolls Uy actual count on it. The seed from which this plant grew was planted just fifty nine days be- fore. Cotton grown this way can be pick- ed with half the cost and time of ordinary cotton. On my eetton!and this year] rais- ed 100 bushels of oats to the acre, aud af- ter cleaning off the stubble I planted the cotton, one stalk of which I showed the convention.” One is not to drop the cotton seed ina continuous row, but simply to put a few seed in the hill where you want a plant. By strewing the seed in a sprinkled row there is a great waste. A Cotton seed is like an egy, when the chick is born there is no- thing left but theshell. When the seed has sprouted there is nothing put the shell left. The fertilizing power of this seed is lost. Worse than this. It dtaws from the ele— ments that make it grow. It is left to de- plete the soikin this way for two weeks at least, and is then chopped down, leaving only one out oftwerity plants to grow to compost. I therefore put 500 pounds of =i SALISBURY. N. C., APRIL 5, 1883. seeds in a hill. The hills to stand four feet square. Of these I would let two plants to thehill grow to perfection. It takes from two to four bushels of seed to plant an acre in the old way. By my plan a peck to the acre is enough, and the soil is not drawn to support a multitude of surplus plants for two or three weeks. Plan- ting in four foot squares is better than the old way. : Cotton is a sun plant and needs room for its roots. When cramped to 12 er 15 inch- ¢s it cannot attain.its perfect growth. My aim isto put the plantstwo together in four foot squares, and average 75 to 150 bells to the plant.. This will give me a pound of seed cotton to the plant, or three bales to the acre.” “I never touch it with a hoe. The growth ef cotten comes from the spreading fila- ments that reach out from the roots and feed it. If these are destroyed the growth stops till they are restored. I am satisfied that three hoeings lost me eighteen days of growth, or six dayseach. Iruna shallow plow along the cotton rows, and never go deep enough to cut the roots, But there are more de- tailsin which men may differ. The main thing isthe intensive system of manuring and the husbanding all the droppings ard wastage of the farm fer compost. Ican take 100 acres of land in Georgia,and at a nominal cost can bring its production from asixth of a bale to three bales an acre in five years. Any man can do it.” “My tenants are adopting the intensive plan, and are very much encouraged. Some few ucighbors are using my formula. 1 have sent out, I suppose, five hundred for- mulas for composting, The speech I made before the agriculture association created more excitement than anything for years. The members did not relish my statement, I saw plainly. Theysent E.C. Geier, the the Secretary, to Milledgeville to see my crops and verify my statements. He is to- day the most enthusiastic man in Georgia over the system I am working en. “You understand,” added Mr. Furman, in conclusion, “that I have no possible inter- est inthis matter outside of my crops. “I have no receipt to sell, no phosphates, no fancy seed, no land. What I have done hes been with common seed on poor land, with cheap menure, and any man, without price or purchase can do what I bave done. I am satisfied to make my money out of the ground, I want none from my fellow farmers. The difficulty with us all is that we try .to farm too mach Iand. I'm good for $3,- 000 with two mules and sixty-five acres. Next year I'll beat this. In the meantime I am “bringing up” twenty-five new acres. I never want over one hundred acres. These I will cultivate with three mules, and I'll make two hundred and fifty bales of cotton on them besides all the corn and oates I need. .“L am anxious,” he added, “to see my plan adopted. If it is done we shall have the best State in the werld. Why, look at France. Her recuperative power is the wouder of the world. And what is it based on? Simply that she can raise two crops— one of these a lentil crop—in onc season. But in middle Georgia Ican raise three crops per season on one piece of land and leave it richer than{when I started, viz: oats, corn, cotton, orcorn and peas. There is no- thing like it. Give me one hundred acres of land like the sixty-five that I own now hand I don’t want an orange grove, or facto- ry, or a truck farm, or anything else. I can five on my onchundred acres of Georgia scrub land like a king, and lay up money every year. Any Georgian can have this in five years if he wants it. The ruleI have followed will bring it just as surely as the sun brjngs heat and light.” —_——_——~ ao ——_—_———- Simple Remedies. Half a teaspoonful of common ta- ble sult dissolved in a little cold wa- ter, and drank, will instantly relieve ‘heart-buru’ or dyspepsia. If taken every morning before breakfast, in- creasing the quantity gradually toa teaspoonful ot salt to a tumbler of water, it will in a few days cure any case of*dyspepsia, if at the same time due attention is paid to the diet. There is no better remedy than the above fur constipation. As a gargle for sore throat it is equal to chlorate of potash, and is entirely safe. It may be used as often as desired, and if a little is swallowed each time it will have a beneficial effect on the throat by cleansing it and by allaying the irritation. In doses of one to four teaspoonfuls in half a pint toa pint of tepid water, it acts promptly as an emetic, and in cases of poisoning is al- ways at hand, It is ap excellent rem- edy fur bites and stings of insects. It is a valuable astringent in hemorrhages, particularly fur bleeding after the ex- traction of teeth, It has both cleans- ing and healing properties, and is, therefore, a a.ost excellent application for superficial ulcerations. Mustard is another valuable reme- dy. No family should be without it. ‘wo or three teaspoonfuls of ground mustard stirred into balf a pint of water ncts as an emetic very prompt- ly, aud is mild and easier to take than salt and water. Equal parts of ground mustard aud flour or meal, made iuto a paste with warm water, and spread on a thin piece of muslin, with anoth- er piece of mustin laid over it, forms the often indispensable ‘mustard plas- fruitaze. My plan is to plant four or five ter” It is almost a specific fur colic, when applied for a few minutes over| va ‘pit = the beg For all in- ernal pains and congestions there is no remedy of snch general utility. It acts as a counter-irritant, by drawing the blood to thefsurface; hence in se- vere cases of croup a small mustard plaster should be applied to the back of the child’s neck. The same treat- ment will relieve almost any’ case of headache. A mustard plaster should be moved about over the spot te be acted upon, for if left too long in one place it is liable to blister. A mus- tard plaster acts as well when at con- siderable distance from the affected part. An excellent substitute for mus- tard plasters is what is known as ‘*mus- tard leaves.’ They come a dozen in a box; and are about four by five’in- ches in size. They.are perfectly dry, and will keep fora long time. For use it is only necessary to dip one in a dish of water for a minute and then apply it. Common baking soda is the best of all remedies in cases of scalds and burns. It may be used on the sur- face of the burned place, either dry or wet. When applied promptly the sense of relief is magical. It seems to withdraw the heat, and with it the pain, and the healing process soon commences. It is the best application fur eruptions caused by poisonous ivy and other poisonous plants, as aleo for bites and stings of insects. Owing to colds, over fatigue, anxiety and vari- ous causes the urine is ofteu scanty, ed with phosphates, which settle to the bottom of the vessel on cooling. As much soda as can be dipped up with a ten cent piece, dissolved in half a glass of cold water and drank every three hours, will remedy the tronble aud cause relief to the oppression that always exists from interruption of the natural flow of urine. This treatment should not be continued more than twenty-four hours. >a Things Useful. Lemon Syrup :—To every piut of juice, add one pound and a quarter of white sugar. Simmer until clear; then cool and bottle, corking tightly. To take out Oil Spets:—To take out stains of oi] as when spilt on car- pets or other woolen goods, promptly spread over the part buckwheat flour. If there is much oil more than one application may be needed. The flour will effectually absorb the oil and leave no trace of grease. A Useful Cement :—A material for fastening knives or forks into their handles, when they have become loos- ened by use, is a much needed article, The best cement for this purpose con- sists of one pound of yellow rosin and bars or reduced to powder. Two parts of the powder are to be mixed with one part of iron filings, fine sand, or brick dust, and the cavity of the han- dle is then filled with this mixture. The stem of the knife or fork is then to be heated and inserted into the cav- ity, and when cold it will be found fixed in its place with great tenacity. 7 , ats pe et pr ‘ Pe . 4% $ . s > . . +a ae ee 'e Se Le og OL St % ‘“ ss ; ms Ze * a : : highly colored, and more or less load- } Se ge FLUID : 7 » 2 4 Ror See Sinn Vanderbilt University, Nashville, Tenn.

A. Atwell sammoned » jury and proceeded to inspect his body. They found him lying ov his face, about four feet from the railroad track, his head towards the river, in a pool of blood, There was no appearance of a struggle of apy kind, but he seems to have died as he fell—bis face in the blood which apparently had Prun from his mouth and nose, A careful examination brought to light no wound of sufficient importance to have caus- ed death in any ordinary way. The jury; however, arrived at the cenelusion that be must have been standing near the tract when the train passed, and that he reeled against a car as the train brush- ed past him, by which he was knocked down; and that the concussion was of sufficient violence te cause his death. There was a slight abrasion of the skin on the back part of his bald bead, as if he had been chaffed by a blow of some kind, and hence the conclusion that he staggered against the swiftly moving train. There were no other mark or scratch upon him, Jhere was nothing ju the appearance of his body or clothing to suggest murder or robbery. The cor- oner believes his body had not been touched by any one. His numerous pock- ets in a sort of a hunting coat, worn over another coat and vest, were all filled with something—his poeket book, tobacco, pipes, handkerchief, papers, &c., &c., and had evidently been untouched by any plunderer’s hand. He had on two pair of pants, one colored shirt, two coats and three pair of socks. It was commonly reported that sume ene had seen in the possession of this man alarger sum of money than was found ov his person, which, if true, woald suggest foul play. We have taken pains to trace out the report—it is eutirely without foundation. But it is hardly proper to dismiss the ‘wheelbarrow man” without a glimpse at hia history, aud sowe further notice of his traps. His wheelbarrow is the most dilapidated thing of the kind ever seen here. ‘The wheel was bound up and beld together with cords in the most wonder- tul way, and every part of the thing had been repaired as if the owner was resol v- ed on preserving its identity forever. It and its contents weighed in all 240 pounds, Contents — judescribable. A stroug inan could barely lift the handles to a working position; and it seems iu- credible that one should push such a load on such an implement along the common roads of the country. He had also ataine wolf, which jt is said, had been taught to sing, and perform various funny avd surprising tricks. Altogether, the “wheel barrow man” was a remarka- ble subject, not for any good he was doing for himself, or bis fawily, (living io Albany, N. Y.) or any one else ; but for his singularity. Letters were found among his stuff from bis family begging him te come home, and telling of dear ones who could not hold ont if he delayed. But they seem to have been in vain, for he was traveling in the contrary direction — towards New Orleans—thence somewhere else, ever proud to be noticed—a vain ) ’ 0 a e y y d 6 b nore, The California poet shall tell balance.

Here is my formula: Take thirty bash- els of well-rotted stable manure or well rotted organic matter, as leaves, muck, etc..and scatter it about three inches thick upon a piece of ground so situated that water will not stang on it, but shed off jn every direction. The thirty bush- ela will weigh about nine hundred pounds; take two hundred of phos- pa whioh coat me $22.50 per ton, de- ivered, making the 200 pounds cost $2.25, and |00 nds kajnit, which cost me by the ton $14, delivered, or 70 cents for 100 pounds, and mix the acid phos- phate and kainit thoroughly, then scatter evenly on the manure. The next thirt bushels green cotton seed and distribute evenly over the pile and wet them thor- oughly ; they will weigh nine hundred ponnds. Tuke again two hundred pounds acid phosphate and ane jiundred pounds kainit, mix, avd spread over the seed, be- gin on the manure and keep on in this way, building up your heap layer by lay- er until you get it as high as convenient, then cover with six inches of rich earth from fence corners, and leave at least a week ; when ready to haul to the figld eut with a spade or pickaxe square down aud mix as thoroughly as possible. Now, we have thirty bushels of mannre weigh- ing vine hundred peunds, and three hun- dred peunds chemicals in the first layer, aud thirty bashels cotton seed weighin nine hundred poands, and three handr pounds of chemicals in the second layer, and thease two Jayers combined for the perfect compost. You perceive that the weight is 2,400.

It is not & small matter for a man to sell his farm and personal property in North Caroling and goto Texas. Hardships certainly await those who go there without a lib- eral supply of money. Money -seeking and money-making is more ardently pursued in Texas than in this State, and everything turns on money or very bard labor as its equivalent. The money, and time, and labor, spent in meving to Texas and gaining @ sure foothold there, if expended upon the old North Carolina homeatead would more surely end satis~ factorily reward the farmer. It is easier to improve old lands than to clear away forests and baild a new home, and they who dream of going to Texas should not fail to take into acconnt this important fact. ————9—__.. The rainy season has afforded the far- mers a chance te market their tobaccos. Sales have been brisk every day at Gray & Beall’s and at Klattz’s Warehouse. The business is ivereasing, and should the people of the town see proper to en- courage, by putting idle capital ivte houses, both fur business purposes and for places of residence, the probabilities are that the town will euter upon and enjoy & busiuess prosperity unknown here for years. Enterprise and capital must be coaxed and courted, it is rarely foreed on a community. These remarks are made because of the great scarcity of dwelling aud busivess houses in Salisbury. The town came near losing an active, live man the other day from this cause, and should another like him come he would be forced away. Who will take hold and meet the matter face to face. ——— 0 Concord Pressrtery will hold its semi-annual meeting this spring at Unity Church, ia Unity Township, in this coun- ty, beginning on Wednesday, 11 A.

The measure is intended and catculated to result in good and be a lasting benefit to the town, and as sach should be cousidered care- fully by our people. Those opposing the measure have perhaps only looked at one side, or are not fully posted aa to the real value such improvements would add to the business prosperity aud com- fort of our citizens. Mest of the objec- tions are of a petty character, and all of them may be met, in the event that our citizens really mean to take advantage of the impetus given the business interests of the place. If there is no desire for improve:nent, and the people of the town are satisfied with affairs as they stand, then ne argument can convince them. Probably the weakest objection urged is that it is not right to create a debt to run thirty years, which must be left for pos- terity topay. To be plaiv, the whole work, as it is intended to be permanent, is bound to benefit these who come after, more than the present actors in the scene. They will enjoy the benefits and will scarcely feel the burden of paying for it. If thuse who urge this objection were Without the blessings which have been banded dewn to them, at far greater cost, they would be pitiable indeed. But it is undenuiabie that the proposed investment is meant for the improvement of the place, aud in that light, irrespective ef creed or political opinion, think care- fully befure expressing antagonism to plans carefully worked up for the general good of the tewn. ——_o9-—_——~- Curious Nuggets frum Davie Co. A Mr. Marphy, tells us how a traveling mav found gold em his place. Late in the night, there came a rap at my door, and Isaid: Come in! The door opeved cautiously and an excited countenance peered in, the mouth fell open and these words fell out: “I have struck it rich! I have found gold on this place!” It seems that he hada rod with a poiuted end which was nsed in the discovery of met- aliferons veins. It could only be used after dark, and the nearer midnight the better the reaults. On this occasion when the traveler came near the house, he stuck his rod into the ground anda bright light, with something of the ap- pearance of a butterfly, floated from the rod and hovered overa spot which the stranger had marked with a pine bough. It was necessary for him to stay over night iu order to definitely locate the spot, and tu dig, ashe was sure the metal lay near the surface. Next morning the search re- vealed nothing except that a traveler had been refreshed by sleep and a sabstantial meal, which enabled bim to journey on- ward bearing his magical rod. Mr. Mur- phy nearly exhausted himself with this story, and his companions streagthened him with a little peach and honey. Oar city indebtedness and for the permanent party furnished bim a smoker, which made the old man straighten himself and feel important. He started dawn the hill, on hie way rejeicing, when he en- couutered “George.” a faithful co laburer of the colored persaasion. He passed at the sight and called out: “George! do you see this segur? Yes sah! (blowing eat a paff ef smoke) do you see that smoke? Yesaar! (exultingly) Thisis me, George,” and he winked his shoulders as heambled away. Another eharacter is George Frost, who dug him a cave iu anticipation of Wiggiu's storm. He went inte bis cavern .on Thureday the 8th of March and ven- tured to peep out on the following Wed- nesday. He was utterly astonishéd te find that the face of the ceutry was un- changed. A Mr. Quarter-of-a-busbel cut down a grove ef oaks from his front yard im fear that thie same looked for storm would blow them én his honse and de- stroy it.

The ad- vent of foreign eapital to the South would almost certaiuly precede the influx of a foreign population. Gilding the new five cent pieces and passing them for gold coins appears to have suddenly become an active induatry. Chief Brooks of the Washington Secret Service, says that arrests have been made for passing the spurious coin in St. Louis, Pittsburg, Chicago, New Orleans, Nash- ville, New York, Boston, Kansas City, Dabagne and San Francisco. The crime is defined by the Solicitor of the Treasury as counterfeiting. The fact that the word “cents” is to be added to the new coin will guard the public to seme extent ; but fraud will continne as long as the resemblance to the fiye-dollar guld piece is maintained on the reverse side. The trouble in North Carolina has aris- en from the fact that too many publishers are not business men, and de net publish their papers on business principles. If our publishers woald act as do Northern publishers our State would not be such a newspaper graveyard. Too many of our poblishers will €l op their colamns with advertisements taken at avy price (and sometimes without any pay—merely to “fill ap”) which vet only cause the sus- pension of their papers, but by such “Cheap-Johu” business injures legitimate journalism, because advertisers too often regard the price charged rathcr than the character of the paper.

Theft, waste and ignorance ts the bane of mining here. > Davie County. Generally speaking, Davie county is net :cousidered as belopging to what is} ealied the anriferous belt which crosses the State from Guilford to Union coun- ties; yet there are several localities of sufficient interest to command attention. There are ne active operations in either minthg or prospecting going on, and the euly information obtainable is of opera- tions iv the past. Among these the Butler mine may be mentioned. Before the war thé owner of this mine obtained about fifteen hundred dollare in gold. The working force cousisted of two old colored weuren, who were unable te do field work. They ased rockers and only washed the brown ore, er decomposed soft ore of the aurface. Sivcte the war some attempt was wade te work the sulphurets of this mine, bat it proved unprofitable, either from the leanvess of the material, or the The Gray mine adjoins the above and is one of the same character—s cont in- uance of the vein. Mr. Bat. Allen has vein of salpha- rete, which has been assayed aud proven to be anriferous. The vein also shows @ percentage of copper. On the property there isa fine deposit of magnectic iron ore, which was worked to some extent during the war. Other gold bearing localities, uadeve)- oped, are Hora mine, Calahau mountain, (Chas. Anderson) J. H. Clement's farm, and Emma wmine, (Prof. Hedges) all of these have been prospected to the ex- | trom tent of ascertaining the fact of the pres- ence of precious metal. Baaweil Gaither’s farm has been consid - | ered as mining lauds for a long time. In the original grant from the Earl of Gran- ville, to Chas. Hunter, the place was spoken of as the “gold mining tract.” So far as the writer is informed, no gold has ever been found ou the place. There is a vein of rose, or amathystine quartz op the farm, from which some very fair amathystine crystals have been taken. No work has been done, and the crystals found were taken frem the plowed fields after heavy rain falls. The Harris Iron mine is a well known deposit of magnetic iron, slightly titanif- erous. A furnace was erected near here before the war, but was abandoved prob- ably from the inaccessability of the pro- duct toa ready market. J. A. Kelly’s preperty adjoius the Harris, and on it may be found a continuance of this iron deposit. It is also reported that lead has been found en the property. On the Maxwell farm adjoining these, very fair limpid aud amathystine crystals are found. After crossiug the river, a conglomerate formatien anderlies the succession of river hills; passing these, large de- posits of grayish yellow sandstone takes the place of the congiomerate. This sand- stone is generally in situ, rendered easily cleavable by its laminated structure. There are alse large deposits of an im- pare soapstone, which holds mica in con- siderable quantities, and the decemposi- tion of this stone is traced in the svil all over the county. Trapdykes cut these various formations in veins, and trap rock is fuvand ia many localities, on the surface. The prospector and crystallo- grapher will fiud here an _ inviting field. i __________ Annual Meeting! Savissury, N.C., March 15th, 1883. The Annona!

From a Sermon by Rev, Charies H. Caton. There are three elements that combine to makea true ma health, loye and sympathetic companionship, No man or woman physically weak should marry, and thus entail suffering on others. Love does not mean ion ; it is based on un- derstanding. Men and women should know <a other behind the eras as it were, before the marriage. bphappy tives often resalt from imperfect knowi- edge before marriage, of the chatacter- istics of the in the centract. Love makes sacrifices; passion uever. No hasband or wife hasever known trae happiness until after the birth of a child. Men and women on the plain ef mar- riage stand equals. There should be aympathetic companionship in the sense that an irreligious should not marry one who js religiously inclined, or an unintellectual person one whe is of opposite taste. There should be sym- pathy and fellewship between husband and wife in all pursuits of life. i IN MEMORIAM, The ae having been appointed by the Council to oo and suitabier resolutions a8 a last tribute of respect to the memory of our. brother, Chas.

In Rowan county the assessed valuation of the lands will average something over $4 per acre, while iu other counties where the lands are equally as valuable, their asseased value is considerably less, This is unjust to the taxpayers ef our county. Acting upon the suggestions of the Gov- ernor, aud taking into consideration these grave facts the Legislature provided iv the “machinery act” for re-assessment of the lands of the State at their ‘true market value.” We learn that reports are in circulation in certain portions of the county, that the assessors appointed under this act will be required to assess the stock and personal property as well as thereal, This ia not true; only an assessment of the lands is provided for. Furthermore, since the last assessment, the lands in some portions of the State, if pot iv all, have enhanced in value—in some sections very considerably so; and from that fact alone, in additien to the curivus facts mentioned above, it does seem to us that a re-assessment is neces- sary iv order to equalize taxation, The burden of taxation ought to bear apon all uuiformly ; under the present assessment it does not, being more burdensome te some than to vthers, owiug to the great want of the uniformity of which we have spoken. Every good citizen does not hesitate, but desires to pay his part ef the taxes, for he knows that this is the priee he pays for geod government, the protection of the law and the benefits of suciety. The Jast Legislature reduced taxation from 28 odats ad valorem tax on every ove hiy- dred dellare’ value of personal apd real property to 25 ceuts, and from B4.couts eu the poll tu 75 cents, The tangs go lov- fed are for the purpose ouly of ranpiag our charitable ipatitugions, the pepiten- tiary, the gourts, the executive and legis lative branches of the government and paying the jnteroxt on the conselidated public debt, If the lands pf the State were asscesed at their real value; gay $300,000,000, taxes instead of being 28 epnts ov the one hundred dollars of real aud persevul property, would be enly 18 gents. As the lands increase in value by assessment as a matter of course the percentage of the levy will decrease. So that it makes little or no practical difference te tax-payers whothpr their lands are assesa’d bigh or low, if it is done with uniformity throughout the State ; but jt makes a yaat difference for the reputation of the State abroad. How wiserably poor must our Btate appear to a stranger reading the Aaditor’s report apoa this subject! The highest average valuation in any county js a little over six dollars per acre and the Jowest under 25 pents! “We have a great State and our lands are as rich and fertile as those of any other State, Qur light has been hid under a bushel long pppugh. The Legislature has attempted to remedy the evil and we trust the result intended will be accomplished. OOO oa Statesville Landmask: There was a fight in McDowell Court at the late term hetween Col.

Under date of April 18 Treausurer Worth has issued the following important circular: After consultation with the Attorney General, whose views upon the subject are herein incorperated, the censtruction pat upon section 47 of An Act of 1883, to Raise Revenue, is as follows: 1. The Sheriff is only entitled to the fee ef fifty cents for the filing of the annual statement. . 2. The Register of Deeds is entitled to twenty-five cents for issuring cach marriage license, (bat will be entitled to one dollar each when the new Code goes into effect, which will be on November Ist, 1883.) This view is taken for the reason that the Sheriff has no duty under the law to perform in respect to issuing marriage li- censes, but enly receives the annual state ment of the Register of Deeds and files it with the Clerk of the Superor Court. The fee mentioned for the Sheriff is intended as a compensation for what he does. As the former acts of the General Assem- bly have prescribed a certain fee te be paid to the Register of Deeeds for issuing each marriage liecuse. and as the new Code will do the same,when it goes into effect, it would seem that the General Assembly intended im this case that there should be a fee of. twenty-five cents for issuing each license. and keeping a recard thereof as prescribe: in seetion nine, chapter sixty—nine, of Bat- tle’s Reversal, and said fee is intended asa compensation for dutics performed by this officer. It has been suggested that the concluding sentence of section forty-seven was intend- ed to be inserted at the end of some other section of the Revenue Act, and that in the progress of legislation it was placed by in- advertence or clerical misprision in its pre- sent position. However that may be, it can- not be changed except by subscquent legis- lation. ee Played fer a “Sucker.” Samuel Hoover, of Randolph, was played for a “sucker” by a bunk man iu that city.

Dear old Watchman : Spring: gentle Spring, is here. We are sitting with our windows open, and the voice of the whangdoodle is heard iv the land. Seunds of bucolic profanity are with a paint brush trail patiently tarus the furrows which are to receive the in- cipient whiskey crop of 1883.

The periodic mad dog made his appearance about the first of the month and has in his checks and crossed in view when abruad, aud the conven- tional euteriug wedge of polite talk iu this coantry is vot the weather, bat I saw a party of excited natives in pur- suit of a hog which pot to be behind the fashion had gone on the rampage. I have quit eating heg on that account; now. : ‘The farmers here are toa great extent going back en fertilizers whether en ac- count of the disproportionate relation or from the fact that the bottom has drepped eut of a great portion ef the road between here and Salisbury, I do not know. Mr. Johu Ivey, of Bilesville, last week picked up a fine gold specimen iu a field north of his house which weighed five pennyweightsbeing about four-fifths gold. You may see from this that weonly work in this country because we are naturally industrious and not because we are com- pelled so todo. With our nataral miner- al wealth; the promise of an excellent crop of blackberries ; and the fact that the hoop pole and persimmon trade will be brisk this year we may consider our fature provided for aud the whole coan- try can go fishing. Speaking of fishing: there were over ove hundred and fifty shad caught at the Falls and the Narrows on Friday by hand fishing alone, as the river was too gn for the dippers to be in. This is best catch for several years, as the obstruc- tiens at the South Carulina line have almost destroyed the shad fishing on the Yadkin..

In Dick’s Recitations will be found the whole poem. The object of desire as evidenced in the selection sent, may be determined in the frst verse of the said 8S. P: “This world is all a blank to me, ’Tis all an empty flash, No pleasure in this world I see For I have no mustache.” The other 7 or 8 verses will keep. Qe New Banx.—The books of the new bank have been closed, with mure than the required amount of stock subscribed. The books may be re-opened after the or- ganization, on the 24th inst. The increas- ed business and prospects for enlarged operations here have made it an easy mat- ter to fill the subseriptiun books of this baak. There is a large demand for mon- ey and the banks will probably find the demand greater than they will be able to meet. The suecess of both these in- stitutions is assured. Qe MEETING OF CiTIzENS.—There will be a meeting of the citizens of the town in : the Courthoase to-morrow evening at the ringing of the bell. All who can are ex- pected to be present. The object of the meeting being to consider the practica- bility of the issuing of bonds for the per - manent improvement ef the streets. Speeches or short talks may be expected of L. H, Clement, Esq., Capt. Chas. Price, Kerr Craige, Esq., J. M. McCorkle, Eaq., L. 8. Overman, Eaq., and other citizens. The meeting is to be nou-political and all are invited to be present and express their views. Let all pall together for the common good of the town. These who haye objections to the proposed im- provement should be there and state them. —— It may net be generally known that the next Mayor and beard of Aldermen elected for the town will hold over for two years. This election for mauicipal officers to control the affairs of Salisbury for the next two years is a very important matter. The general apathy of oar citi- zens, on the whole sabject, is rather alarming. There is a strong probability of having a Republican municipal admin- istration, unless the Democrats wake up to the situation and centre on some wan who ean carry the whole strength of the party. These facts are worthy of some thought by the people, for they are mach interested in this matter. There is no subject that affects every man’s interest more than this. A wise choice, aad all is well with the town ; a foolish cheice and away go all the bright prospects that are opening te the town. ——_o-———__ The fourth ensemble rehearsal of this session by the pupils attending the music school of Mrs. and Prof. W. H. Neave, took place on last Thursday evening the 12th, inst. They have recently purchased aspleodid new upright piano, made by Peek & Sono, which was used at this re- hearsal. Quite a number of our cultivated ladies, the mothers and friends of the pupils, were present and enjoyed the music. There is space for mention of only some of the musical recitals :—Uf piano solos five, namely—‘“‘La Tarantelle” by Heller—Miss Addie White; “Pasquin- ade” by Joseffy—Mies Annie Blackmer ; “Mocking Bird” Fantasie, by Mille— Mies Bessie Holmes ; Fantasie en “Mar- tha”—Miss Anna Gowan!; “La Tutelle” by Meyer, Miss Agnes Smithdeal ; Cornet sule by Master Wood Krider supported ea twe pianos by Misses J.

Mr. Holmes has been his own architect. The foundatios is laid fur Br- Griffith's Dental Offices and residence. The super- structure will go up very rapidly, uader the energetic contractor. The additions being made tothe old jail by Messrs. Bernhardt & Smithdeal, will farnish twice as mach room as the original betiding contaived. This, when completed, will give them ample room to manufacture from three to five hundred thousand pounds of leaf tobacco anvually. Dr. Keen has the coutract and is vigorous- ly pushiog the work. Mr. James B. Lanier, who, a short time ago thought of closing his tobacee fac - tory, has been indaced te continue. His reason for suspending was that he did not have room to carry on the business in an extensive manner. Mr. M. L. Holmes whe owns the factory bailding bas deter- mined to enlarge it te suit Mr. Lanier’s wants. He proposes to manufactare three er feur hundred thousand pounds an- naally. Messrs. Payne & Lunn have been man- ufacturing between three aad four han- dred thousand poands of leaf tobacco an- nually, for the past five years. They propose to keep this up, adil add to their capacity as opportunity offers. Thus it appears that Salisbury will need fer her own covususfption, from a million toa million and two hundred thousand pounds of leaf tobacco annually. This pviat should be noted by farmers. They needs have no fear iv bringing their leaf to the Salisbary market. And just here it is well to say that these factories have not yet bought half the stock veeded for the coming season. —_——@———_—— Among Our Advertising Patrons.

In several instances this climax seeans already reached ; bat we learn that it has been attained by a careful stady of the quality and adaptibility of soils, ju- dicious application of fertilizers added to perseverance in patient, energetic labor. Magnificent fields of wheat are seen on all sides, large plains and hillsides of clo- ver, now clothed in beautiful green, greet- the eye and enlighten you as to what means are being used to develop and im- prove the productive qualities of the seil. Besides this marked progressiveuess in the restoration of exhausted lands, some are turning their attention to steck rais- ing, which, as far as tested, is reputed to be quite remuneratiye. Mr. J. M. Harri- son’s stock-farming is au iustance prev- ing conclasively that mouey can be made in raising fine improved steck for hows market. He has been gradually bringing his farm up te a proper condition for this business and 80 improving his cattle that new he can show some as fine thorough- bred Jerseys as peyhaps can be found in the State. He finds no difficulty iu sell- ing his graded heifers at prices ranging from $50 to $150 per head. Has, also, twenty odd head of full-blooded Berkshire hogs, and could sell numbers of pigs of this breed if he had them at $10 pair. His amocess has been so complete that Maj. J. F. Stagsill, lately returned to this cvunty from Kansas, is enconraged to en- ter into euttle raising with the purpose of devoting his attention exclusively to this business. The Major has had eXperieuce in stock raising while iu the West, and says there can be no reason why it should not be ag profitable as ip Kansas the seasons at@ pot neat so favorable as here in North Carolina. ed “Joho Ince and his merry party cer- tainly captared last night as we predict- Prof. Gimerack is a great character creation which gives full scope to come- dian abilities of the first rank, and Mr. Ince is certainly in possession of the part No detail is faulty, the humer is inces- sant, the mirth genuive, and the enjoy- ment complete.—Charlesten (S.C.,) News ed. courier.

Take the simple planting ofa field of corn. ‘Take a five acre field. To break it up would require walking some forty miles; harrowing it, ten miles; furrowing it, twenty miles; planting eleven miles, if with a ~ planter, and if dropped by hand and then covered twenty wiles. Thus it will be seen that it tukes about 100 miles of travel to put ina five acre field of ovorn to say vothing of cultivating and har- vesting and the going to and from the field while planting. A story ig told about Senator David Davis and a reporter. The later had called on the Judge to ask for infor- mation of such a nature that the very question was an iusult toa man of Mr. Davis’ character. Looking calmly at him, and slightly bracing himself in his chair, the Judge asked his in- terlocutor to step to the window and look down. He did so. ‘How far is it to the bottom ” ‘About thirty feet.’ ‘Well, sir,’ said Judge Davis, stern. ly, ‘do you know what I ought to do with you?

The. old kuife board ‘has given way to the rotary kpife cleaner ; but even that requires a certain amount of grinding te give the knives a polish, so that for large estab- lishnvents a knife-cleaver boy is still ne- cessary. ‘The blacking of boots, the black- ing of grates, and the cleaving ef door- steps are all done iv a most laborious way by haud.'

Iu many cases this will be effected with stured electricity. “Two years ago,” said the profeasur, “the storage of elec- trie energy in black boxes, and their pow- er taken out of them by Sir William Thompson, may have passed before the minds of the public as ove of those mere seven days’ wonders which in these latter times have become so common, But to the scientitic man, who could foresee the possibilities connected with the electrical storage of power, these experiments of Sir Wim. Thompson were of pre-eminent importance, The two latest employments of elec- tricity stored in Faure-Sellon-Valeckmar accumulators are in the boat ‘Electrici- ty,’ which many have seen running at Kew, and the electric tricyele of Profes- sor Perry and myself. In the tricycle no work is done by the rider, but little black boxes, carried on the base-board, contain the stored electric energy, pretty much in the same way asa horse’s body con- tains its breakfast ef oataand hay, with the difference that with the it is the receptacle which has weight, so that neither in receiving its feed in the moruing nor discharging its power du- ring the day does the aceuwulator gain or lose in its weight.

He es- caped arrest by slipping from county to county, living like a beast of prey. Last Wednesday two constables named Burlesov, brothers, came up with him in the lkreuse of his brother-in-law, the note- riows Keese Blalock, a few wiles this side of Bakersville, in Mitchell county. They had warravts for him and for his mistress, Rath Carpeuter, who was in the heuse. Pritchard made ne attempt at resistavee but said that the weman was too sick for removal and asked one of the constables to go and ask a doctor who was near by to come and give opinion. Searcely had the constable gone when Pritchard snatched a guu and snapped a cap at the other one. Quick as thought the constable whe remained behind threw a bullet into ’ritechard’s breast, and the noi e of the firing brining back hiscomrade they both opened tire upon the desperado who fought tothe last, attempting to club his assailauts with bis gan.

Salisbury may add to her renown by farnishing the next Governor of North Carolina, and as the situation now stands the prospect for it is very promising. Al though the election for Bosarese does not take place nntil next year, political excitement in the State is already run- nivg high. The Legislature, to be elect- ed at the same time as the Governor, will have the selection of a United States Sen- ator to succeed Mr. Vance, and in addi- tion to this the question of Jocal self- government for the counties will be a paramount issue. Last full the coalition of repablicans and liberal democrats came within less than 400 votes of carrying the State, despite the fact that an inflneutial element of the republican party, at the head of which was the shrewdest and most able republican politicians in the State, was opposed to the movement and the solid republican vore will be given for its candidate at the next elec- tion. President Arthor is taking much interest io the politics of North Carolina and has expressed to a number of leading republicans of the State his perfect con- fidence that the hold of the democracy ean and will be loosened in 1884. Just before leaving for Florida the President sent lor several North Caroliua republi- cans, and communicated to them bis viewa at length. Ho argedd harmony among repablicans and conciliation aud says: Nort Cakoftra Porrrics.—Asthetime draws nigh forthe parties and factions to mature their plans for the presidential cam- paign of 1884, the condition of affairs in the doubtful States becomes interesting. In to- day's Sun the situation in North Carolinas viewed from the standpoint of federal oftice- holders, or the seekers of federal offices, is presented with graphic force. A coalition between the republicans and hungry demo- crats, it is thought, can be cemented by the free use of federal appointments. President Arthur, it is said, counts pn making the dis- tribution of smal! and large offices a telling argument with those democrats whose alle- giance to their party is controlled by their personal interscsts rather than their princi- ples. Obvioasly the moral tone of the coali- tion party in the old North State cannot ve very high, when the order of motives upen which it relies for recruits is solow. “This fight would seem to be animated—even more than was the case among the Virginia coali- tionists in the last cam paign-by simple greed for office.

Last year there were many young democrats who were anxious to give support to the coal- ition movement, but they were fearful that it woald not succeed and did not want to be on the losing side. Now that the republican party of the State is solid for it and the administration with all its power at the back of it, it dues not seem like a very difficult thing to wipe out a little more than 300 majority. A leading republican of this section of the State af_ firms that ten thousand republicans ab- stained from voting at the last election because of their dissatisfaction that a straightout ticket was not put in the field.

Heretofore this duty has been promptly done. ‘The only solution seems to rest in the sabject of bonds. The thinkers for the town deemed it advisable to issue bonds on easy terms of payment, for two reasons: first to pay off the debts of the town; secdnd,'to im- prove the streets and roads of the town in a substantial, permanent way. There is nothing dangerous in that; nothing that need shake confidence in fellowman, or deter from the usual duty of’ all good citizens in selecting good and reliable men to take charge of the town government.

So they are; bat modern usage make them signify two very dis- tinct processes as applied to fruits, vege- tables, &c., in the preparation of them for winter stores. Evaporated truits have been quickly and thoroughly deprived of the water they contained wittwut affect- ing the color, changing or losing their aroma, or loss of the sugar contained in them, or sarificing the natural sweet fruity taste. Fruit dried in the suo and air, or in ovens, is open to alg the objec- tions avoided by that process.MHence the difference is the resalt of thétwo differ- ent processes, and it is very striking — making a difference in the markets of from 50 to 200 per cent. It puts our native fruits on the same plane and somc- times above, the foreign fruits «retailed in our markets, such as figs, raisens, cur- rants, and the like. Any method that will accomplish so important a result must be very desirable to th who an- nually bestow mach time apil labor on saving fruit, either for their wn use or for the market.

Four remarkable spots:have. mae |their appearance on the san ~ within the Jast two or three days, and are now advancing, with. inner motions. like those of a storm. cloud, toward | the centre'of the disk. One.of these spots is of enormous size, rivaling some of the great spots which were seen at the. time of, the violent. magnetic storms of last year, and the others are of unusual magnitude, They are not far apart, and appear, to be drawing closer together... Even now, although they are near the eastern edge of the sup, and consequently are seeu con- siderably aslapt, ng telescope is need- ed to show them ike a speck. of dust upon the shining globe, When they get near the centre they aay _ be expected to make a much more im- posing appearance than they do now. So great isthe diameter of the sun that they will then be more than 400,000 miles nearer to us than when they first made théit appearance at the edge of the disk? ‘This distance, however, although upward of , twice as great as the distance of the moon fébw the earth, is so small compared with the 93,000,000 miles which separate the sun and the earth, that it will make practically little difference in the appearance of the spots. The greater size and distinctness when seen near the centre will be owing to the spherical form of the surface upon whiek they appear, Anybody can get a clear conception of this by taking a ball and drawing asmafl picture upon the side of it. Only when the ball is 80 presented to the eye that the picture appears near the centre of the visible hemisphere will it be seen to the greater advantage. These spots and some large ones which were seen about the Ist of the present nsonth, and which, iftthey are yet in existeuce, must now be upon the side of the sun which is turned away from us, suggest the interesting question whether sun spots reappear at intervals at the same places on the solar globe. The location of the spots sume of the great spots of last year, and it is suspected that several of the spots of 1882 may have reappeared in the same places after having once vanished. Owing to the lack of per- manent landmarks it is exceedingly difficult to determine whether there really are places on the sun’s surface where spots appear with special fre- quency. If it can be shown that sach places exist, very important changes uust be made in the present theories of the constitution of the sun, and we may be breught back to something resembling William ,Herschel’s con- ception of a sun with a solid nucleus h | comprising a very large portion of its jou aud surrounded by a luminous atmosphere, through which holes are made by the eruption of enormous volcanocs or by other forms of erup tive force. ‘There are the weightic® reasous fur believing that the sun cannot possibly have such a na- cleus, Ifthe present activity of the sun continucs for a month longer the as- tronomers who have gone to the mid- dle of ihe Southern Pacific Ocean to observe the total solar eclipseon May 6:h will probably be witnesses of a magnificent spectacle. When great sun spots are most numerous the mys- terious envelopes surrounding the sun, which come into view during a total eclipse,"appear to the best advantage, present the most imposing and eu- rious forms and extend to the greatest distances. In case the san happens to be greatly dixturbed about the 6th vf May these astronomers may have an opportunity to make most interest- iug and important additions to our knowledge of the great ruler and ¢entre of the sular system. The opportanity to study the san spots like those wow visible will be- come less and Jess frequent from this tune until nine or ten years hence, whea another maximum point of solar activity will be reached.—New York Sun, Aprit 15th.

Brandreth’s Pills have stood the test of forty- five years of use by the Amertcan people. They are entirely Vegetable. They are absolutely universal, for there is no disease they will not cure, if taken in time. ‘They are safe for infants and adults. They aim toac- complish three things : first, to parifythe blood; second, to cleanse and regulate the stomach and bowels; third, to stimulate the kidneys and liver and purge away the ashes of the sys- tem and diseased matters of the body, By pur- ging wi.h these ‘Pills’ constantly, a. new body can be built up from fresh, healthy food in a few months, In this way, gout and rheyma- tism, ulcers and fever sores can be eradicated in a few weeks. The worst cases of dyspepsia and costiveness can be cured by taking one or two pills eyery night fora month. In cases of twenty years’ standing, gentlemen have been cured by taking one pill a night for a year. Brahdreth’s Pills give tothe human body, no matter how worn or decayed, the recuperative powers of youth. In their action, they imitate the rapid changes of the youthful body.

In general debility, nervons tremor, and mental depression Brandreth’s Pills havea marvelons effect.

PRAIRIE Du CHIEN, Wis,, Feb, 11, 1882, I am in the ninetigth year of my eatrhly pilsrimage, and before passing to another, and I trust, a better world, I wish to bear uestimo- ny to the great v irtues of Brandreth’s Pillsas a household remedy, ‘hey are the best blood purifiers and cleansers of the stomach and bow- els in the world. I have raised a family of 10 children, been blessed with three wives,and my family experience reaches over seventy years. For oyer forty-five years I_ have known and believed in Brandreth’s Pills. They have cured me of indigestion, costiveners, dyspepsia: and the females of my family have found them invaluable at all timers, I also wish to say that I have found Axi.cocx’s Porous Pxas- TERS very useful in breast pains, backache and weak muscles, ALFRED Brunson, A,M., D,D.

You may travelia any direetion, for moiles, and thrift and plenty abound, ev- erywhere. Broad fields of whegt, oats and clover meet your eyes at every point. | In point of good management and sys tem, the farmers here seem a good deal in advance of their neighbors. Their lands are very® fertile, and peculiarly ; adapted to clover, the grasses, wheat and other small grains, and we have seev some as fine tobacco raised here as we ever saw any where. Small quantities of cotton are raised, but it is not depend- ed upon as a crop to any great extent. Mr. John W. Steele is a very successful farmer, and has his extensive farms iu a high state of cultivation. He uses very little courmereial fertilizers, bat makes large quantities of home-made manures, and improves his lands by clover and peas. He hasa very large and fine flock of sheep. They are of the South Down breed. He claims that his sheep are the most profitable stock he has. Last fall he sold $40 worth of wool besides having killed about 14 for mutton. He has a large herd of Berkshire hogs besides an improved breed of cattle. On every farm here you will find im- proved breeds of cattle, Sheep and hogs apd ynaby haye tle improved breeds of poultry. At Mr. W. L. Steele’s may be seen -a very large number of the Plymouth Rock chickens, and he is selling largé numbers of the eggs (thfee-fourths Lmeed) at @ cents per dozép. He is extensively epgaged in fruig culture, avfhas a fhe otéhard of very superior peaches, &e. Third Creek Station (Rowan Mills) has four stores, where every variety of goods can be bought as low or lower than in Salisbury, At that place they have two steam cotton gins and presses, and do a vast amount of ginning and packing, and the number of cotton bales shipped from that point during the past wiuter, was jim meénée, There is aléo h good store at Mt.

Some man, unknown tothe writer here- of, has given to the world a saying that sticka: “Talk to your cow as you would toa lady.” There.is a world ef common sense in it. There is more; there is good sound religion iv it. What else is it but the language of the Bible applied to ani- mals: “A soft answer tarneth away wrath.” A pleasant word to a horse iv time of trouble has prevented many a disaster, where the horse has learned that words mean a guaranty that danger from punishmeut is not imminent. Oue morving a big, museular groom said to employer: “I can’t exercise that horse any more. He will bolt and ran at anything he sees.” The owner, a small man and ill atthe time, asked that the horse be hooked ap. Stepping into the skeleton he drove a couple of miles, and then asked the groom to station along the road such objects as the horse was afraid of. This was dove, and the horse was driven by them quietly, back and forth, with loose liwes slapping on his back. The whole seeret wasin a voice that inspired confidence. The mau had been frightened at everything he eaw that he supposed the horse would fear. The feat went to the horse like an elec- trie message. Then came a punishing pull on the Jines, with jerking and the whip. Talk to your horse as you would to your sweetheart. Do not fear bat that he onderstands and appeciates loving tones, if not the words, while it is by no means certain that the sensitive iptellt gence of many a horse deca vot compre- hend the latter.— Breeder's Gazette. —__—_~ao— The shooting of the mad dog in church at Davidson College some days ago, while moste of the congregation were engaged in climbing benches and shinning up the gallery post, was generuly regarded as an illustration of the wisdem of always “car- ring a weepon,” but here eomee the Phili- delphia Record saying that,although a pistol wasa handy thing to have on this particular eccasion, and although the custom of the Puritians in this respect was not to be de- nied, yet folks ought net to go to church with their arms on.

The sigus sharply jndi- cate that they are to be forced a competition with an established and them. The advantages the southern manufacturer holds over New Eng land are many ; and any of them used to the full extent, as will be, will be sufficient to overcome the northern industry. * * * * It must be borne in mind that the old system of slaveholding has a living effect on all questions affecting the material prosperity of the southern States, and through them on us. We are far from being¢hrough with the evil effects of slavery; indeed, in my opinion we are just about ‘to realize that the abolition of that sys- tem is going to affect us of the North in various ways that our statesmen did not foresee. We now see the ef- fect of it in the difference in the cost of labor influencing the cotton manu- facturing industry of the North, We will further see, and sharply feel it, in the rates of railway transportation in the near future affecting the con- trol of the markets for manufactured product. The sonthern railways were built by cheap labor. Before the war slaves who were cheaply hired, were largely employed on works of inter- nal improvement. Since the war poorly-paid free men and convicts, the State slaves, have been largely em- ployed. ‘The roads were cl.eaply built and they can be cheaply operated. There is no snow 4o obstruct them in the winter. All men working on these lines are poorly paid. When the traffic increases, the roads can earry freight for less money than any northern road, where the higher rate of d hammers the rails into splin- ters, and the comparatively higher rate of wages exhausts the earning, and the snows of winter eat up the surplus earned in busy times. Already the New England manu- facturers of cotton-are clamoring for a different classification of their pro- duets, so as te obtain cheaper rates of transportation from their mills to Cincinnati, Louisville, St. Louis, Chieago aud other distributing points for the western and southern trade. Without a cheapening of freight rates on the northern trunk lines they fure- see that the southern manufacturers will speedily drive them from the western markets, The eastern manu- facturers acknowledge that they have, on coarser goods, lust control of the southern market, and that they are threatened with the loss of the west- ero inarket. There is another point that sharply affects this tlreatened loss of market that the northern man ufucturers have medestly omitted to state, and that is the sonthern prodact which is now being introduced into the West is a better artiele than any that comes from New England looms. In all portions of the agricultural West where the tillers of the soil have used southerp ginghams, houestly made and unweighted with the con— tents of the pnste pots, they demand that the dealers keep the superior southern goods for sale. ‘These goods are more durable, at give far better satisfaction than the products of New England mitls. It is possible that the southern manufacturers may in time lower the standard of their pro- duets ; but being men of intelligence, it is not probable they will commit that folly nbw, when they are en- croaching oi) the mast desirable of all Markets, and when their mills are earning from tet¥ to forty per cent, per year. In the South the power used to drive machinery is generally water. It is a good and cheap power. There are no long cuntitfted cold spells to thickly coat the streams with ice and clog the ranaways and pipes and wheels. The supply of water i8 com- paratively ites It is ae ae The mourtains have not been denudl- ed’ of trges, nor has all the agricul- tural Jan@-been stripped of forest. The water is‘stored in the spongelike soit of the forest lands, and nature deals it ont gradually. Wherever there is a very valuable water power in the cotton States it is being im- proved. Canals to lead the water to desirable mill sites ‘are being dug. Notably is this the case at Colambia, 8. C.

The only conclusion we can draw frem this natue fact is that nature intended that the dog should live mainly on the flesh of other animals, We find that the horse possesses two kinds of teeth in front, and back of these, a powerful set ‘of grinding teeth; but he has no pointed, or canie teeth. It is apparent then, that the cutting teeth were intended te bit Off grass or other vegetable foods, to be passed back te the grinders and there prepare for the stomach.

Where is the evidence that “a pledge to vote the Democratic ticket” is going to exempt any maw from the penalties of a violated law? Has any such thing become a practice in Demo- cratic administration ? If so cite some of the cases. To whom could such a pledge be made so as to work an exemption? Not to the Sheriff or the Magistrate, for they are both sworn officers to enforce the law. Now, as to the law itself, what is the aim of it? Plainly, to make every man pay his taxes or obtain an exemp- tion by applying to the County Commis- sioners. Is that not right? Every mau who is able to pay his tases ought te do it willingly. If he ia too poor to pay let him go betore the Coanty Commissioners and show his cause for exemption. The County Commissioners meet on the first Monday in each and every month, so that there is ne lack of oppertanity to meet them with complaints. Now where is the traps to catch “niggers and poor-white trash T except in the wild imagination of Mr. Goslen ? If the citizen ia able to pay his taxes but refuses or neglects to do it, ought he net be cempetled to pay? Seventy-five out of ahuudied pay their taxes willingly. Shall the twenty-five who are as wach bound as they, go free? Certainly not.

To live in hope 3, if not laying bor, itis too uncertain and does not, ro bor. half of our land owners can command sufficient labor to cultivate their lands find themselves without the power to cultivate theircrops, The crop is to be worked afier it is planted, and You cannot afford to employ day la- earn the wages asked. The only solu- tion of the problem seems to be the employment of a class of laborers who will identify themselves with the in- terest of the farmer, with mutual ben- efits to both. . There are thousands.of white laborers who will gladly come, if provisions be made for them, and sooner or later the farmers of the Eastern Shore will be forced to adopt the northern system. Why not do it at once? It is the fault of the colored people if they do not avail themselves of the opportunity.—Zastern Shore era — ere In some places in Europe steel bars are used in preference to bells, sup- planting them sometimes altogether in ehurch steeples, and producing ve- ry pure, distinct and melodious sounds, Au English writer eveu advocates their general use, on the ground that, while in point of sonorousness they are equal to the common bell, in cer- tain other respects they are to be pre- ferred to it. Their weight will be light in comparison with the ponderous ob- ject they replace; they will not bur- den the steeple so much, and, conse- quently, will give more scope for ar- chitectural design ; their winding and hanging up will vot be so difficult, dangerous and expensive ; they are not liable to crack, as is the case with bells, and are, therefore, adapted for use in any climate; they can also be operated by a simple mechanical con- trivance, They ure also much cheap- er than bells. eee A Practical Religion. We want a religion that softens the step and tunes the voice to melody, and checks the impatient exclamation and harsh rebuke; a religion that is polite, deferential t» superions, cour- teous to inferiors and considcrate to friends ; a religion that goes into the family and keeps the husband from being eress when dinner is late, and keeps the wife from (rctting when the husband traets the newly washed floor with his muldy boots, and makes the hushand mindful of the seraper and the door mat; keeps the mother pa- tient when the baby is cross, and amuses the children as well instructs them; cares for the servants besides paying them promptly ; projects the honeymoon into the harvestmoon, and makes the happy home like the east- ern fig-tree, bearing in its bosom at once the beauty of its tender blussoms and the glory of the ripened fruit. We want a religion that ehall inter- pose between the ruts and gullies and rocks of the highway of life, and the sentitive souls that are traveling over them, ———_~@>—> -—___ Post-Settina.—Prof. J. W. Beal, of the Michigan Agricultural College, reports to the New York Tribune the results of his experiments in post set- ting, which quite upset the old theory that posts should be set small end down to prevent frow rotting. His average results indicate that inverting posts is of uo value. He set sticks of thirteen kinds of timber in 1879, some in well-drained sand and others iu clay soil, The result at the pres- ent time is that a portion of the ine verted posts slightly outlasted the others, while another portion * rotted sumewhat sooner ; and in a considera- ble no difference is seen. [Let ‘he experiment be tried in our own climate and soil, perhaps it may be different.— WATCHMAN. ] ~<a New Penal Code. Tn view of the popular dislike of the new penal code which is iu force in New York, the Wall Strect News has busied itself in getting up a sub- stitute, which classifies certain crimes according to the amounts stolen.

My wife for many years was confined te her bed. suffering from spinal disease. After spend ing a thousand dollars in vain effort to. get cured, she applied three ALLCocK’s PLAs— TERS to the spinal column, one above the other.

A A Man who Thinks He Saw Other World. the The Rev.

Man is the only animal that can be taught to sleep quietly on an empty stomach. The brute creation resent all efforts to coax them to such a vio- lation of the laws of nature. The lion roars in the forest until he has found hi prey, and when he las devoared it he sleeps until he needs another meal. The horse will paw all night in the stable and the pig will squeel in the pep, refysing all rest or sleep until they are fed. The animals which chew their cud have their own provi- sions for a late meal just before drop- ping off to their nightly stambers., Man can train himself to the habit of sleeping without a preceding meal, bat only after years of long practice. As he come comes into the world na- ture is too strong for him, and he must be fed before he will sleep. A child’s stomach is small, and when perfectly filled, if no sickness disturbs it, sleep follows naturally and inevit- ably. As digestion goes on, the ston ach begins to empty. A single fold in it will make the little sleeper rest- less. Two will waken it, and if it is hushed again to repose the nap is short, and three folds put an end to the slum- ber. Paragoric or other narcotic may close ils eyes again, but without either food or some stupefying drug it will not sleep, no matter how healthy it may be. Not even an angel who learned the art of minstrelsy in a ce- lestial choir can sing a baby to sleep upon an empty stomach. We use the oft-quoted illustration, “sleeping as sweetly as an infant,” be- cause this slumber of a child follows innmediately after its stomach is eom- pletely filled with wholesome foed. The sleep which comes toadults long hours afier partaking of food, and when the stomach is nearly or quite empty, is not after the type of infant- ile repose. There is all the difference im the world between the sleep of re- freshment and the sleep of exhaustion. ‘To sleep well, blood that swell the veins in the bead during our busy hours mnst flow back, leaving a great- ly diminished volume behind the brow that lately throbbed with such yehe- mence. ‘lo digest well, this blood is needed at the stumach, and nearer We tountaius of life. It isa fact establjsh- ed beyond a posibility of contradiction that sleep aids this digestion, and that the process of digestion is conducive to refreshing sleep. It needs fo argu- ment to convince us of its mutual re- lation. The drowsiness which always follows the well ordered meal is itself a testimony of nature to this inter-de- pendence.—N. Y.

While on their way to Gettysbury, our {roops were marching by night throngh a village, over whose gate- ways hung lighted lanterns, while young girls shed tears, as they ‘watch: ed the brothers of other women march on to possible death. A scene of the march is thus described by the author of “Ballet and Shell.” Stopping for a moment at the gate ofa dwelling, I notf®ed a young moth- er leaning over it’ witha chabby child inher arms. Above the wo- man’s head swung two stable lan- terns, their light falling upon ler face. ‘The child was crowing with delight at the strange pageant, as it watched tle armed host pass on. “I beg your pardon ma’am,” said Jin Manners, one of my men, as he dropped the butt of his musket tocthe ground, and peered wistfully imto the faces of the mother and her child. “I beg pardon, but may I kiss that baby of yours? I’ve got one just like him at bome, at least he was when I last saw him, two years ago.’ The mother, a. sympathetic tear rolling down her blooming cheek, silently held ont the child, Jim pressed his unshaven face to its inno- cent, smiling. one for a moment, and then walked on, saying: “God bless you, wa’am, for that !” j Poor Jim Mauvers!

The whole land at the timeof the conquest by the Jews was rich aud fruitful. The Western portion was as fertile as the Eastern, and the country: was attrac- tive and desirable, a land of corn and wine. But theJews were unwise enough in the hill country to cut down the . trees and what followed ? Just what has occurred in all lands where the earth was denuded and a reck less:destruction of the forests had taken place. The whole land became sterile. The washings became so great. that the soil. was carried away aud the land of beauty and fertility was converted into a land of - barreu- ness, This is the condition in the West. In .Eastern Canaan the for- ests remained and te this day the soil is fertile. A New Commandment. In the seventeenti»eentury the minis- ter of a certain parish in Scotland was the famous Samuel Rutherford, the reli- gious oracle ef the Covenanters and their adherents. It is among the. traditions that on a Saturday evening, at one of the family gatherings, when Rutherford was catechising his children and servants, a stranger knocked at the door and begged shelter for the night. ‘Theminister kind- ly received him, and asked him to take bis place with the family aud assist at their religions:exercises.

In the forests of the islands constitu- ting the Indian archipelago is found a curious flying animal which forms the connecting link between the lemur and the bat. The natives call it the calugo, and the ‘flying fox,” bat it looks more like a flying monkey, as the lemurs are the cousins of the moukeys. Like the bats, these animals sleep in the day-time head downward; but as eveuing comes on they sally forth, often doing great harm to the fruit ou the neighbering plantations. In some parts of Java they are so pumerous that it is found necessa- ry to protect the ‘fruit trees with buge nets. ‘The extent of their flights through the air is sometimes astonishiug. They sometime’ drop to the ground and hop along w ith a shuffling kind of leap, but if they are alarmed, they spring to the near- est tree and in a moment reach its top by a series of bounds. Out upon the branches they dart, and with a rush they are off into space. Sailing through the air like some great bird, down they go obliquely swift us am arfow,a hundred and fifty feet or more, rising again iu a graceful curve and aligitting safely on a distant tree. In these great leaps they carry their young, which cling to them, or sometimes fullow them in their headlong flights, uttering hoarse and piercing criee.

Robert Collyer delivered an ad- dress to the studeats of an Eastern col- lege, in the course of which he remarked that he had worked on a farm, carfied a hod, shod horses, broken stone on a turnpike, had reaped and eradled grain, dug a well, cut wood, aud had preached sermons that no one wanted to hear. His wonderful success had been achieved by pure grit and honest industry. You must dig down to “hard pan,’’ he said, to lay a foundation to fame and fortune. The reverend gentleman seemed to have drawn the most of his inspiration from Poor Richard’s almanac. His spectflated ‘aphorisms may be grouped as follews : Any kind of an honest job is better than no job at all. Take a dollar a day for your work if you can get no more. A man’s best friends are his ten fin- gers. When evil days come, as evil days will, no man deserves the title of gentleman if he does not take honest work to do re- gardless of social influence. When country boys come to the city, if they can hold on to their swect old ways, they can defy the world. Keep your grip on the hard pan of prineiple and good’ condact, and you will be men of good name and good for- tune. : When a boy fills a house with bugs he is all right, provided he don’t run after hombugs.

We xpeak of itas the “regular democratic Uicket,” , it was nominated by a large uf democrats, among whom there was perfect harmony and good will. Bat it should be known that this meeting wasnot held antil Thareday wight before the election on Monday; and that before that time the community had decided hew they would go as be- tween J, A, Rameay and the theu proba- Lie democratic candidate. It should also Le borne in mind that the sepablicanism of the ticket headed by Rameay, is of the mildest character te be found—alarms no one by its viralenee—and with slight ex- ceptiou is not available for the bad work of a bad party. Indeed, we believe the majority of the men elected are demo- erate, and at heart are in sympathy with them. They prebably had nothing to do with their ewn nomination by the negroes, and so far as we know, have beeu passive iv regard to it. With this explanation the character of this defeat of the demecratic party is brought te view, and must be regarded us an empty victory. It is true that the Rameay ticket was almost ananimously supported by the colored voters (and a fow white radicals) in a true partisan spirit. The democrats who voted it, did so because they knew it contained some good salt, and because they wanted to dieplay a sort of self-assertion as against what they were pleased to construe as party dictation. To this cemplexion it comes at last; the democracy of Salis- bury is not a unit, except on questions of ahigher grade than any invelved ina municipal election. But while the success of the republican ticket may well be regarded as an empty victory to then: as a party, it is not with- out mortification to those one hundred and mere democrats who assembled in Meroney‘s Hall last Thursday night with as purely patrivtic intentions as were ever, cherished by good citizens in any place,. They comprised the larger por- tio of the active business men and pro- perty holders ef the toyn, and their deliberations were conductml with mark- pd neatuess and fairness. They hada fight to expect their action would be pustained by every man claiming to be a democrat, nut only because full notice had been given of the proposed meeting, but because it was known that they would bring put a ticket designed to be more acceptable tu the white peo- ple of the town, whom they were repre- senting, and whose concurrence they be- lived they would receivo. And the mortifying results ef the con- test doeg not end entirely with those who were defeated, It reaches up to the vic- tors—to those who have permitted them- nelves to'ntitagonize their white, tax-pay- ing fellow citizens of the town. They are net the representatives of the white voters of Salisbary, except in the ratio of 26 to 260—one inten! They must assent to this bold dietation ef the blacks to the whites of the community in the face of an open declaration on the part of the Jatter agninet them. As a matter of aste a sensitive fellow citizen would refer mortification with the defeated rty, rather than the sting of occupying position which brought him into unnatural Antagonism with his own race and coler, aud with, whom all the delicate sympa- thies of life were identified.

Ledgers of the last Century found in 1 Treasury Department. © Wasuineton, May 5.—Accerding to the books of the treasury department Gen. George Washington, the father of his country, is indebted to his country in the sum of $161,330. This fact would in all probability never have been dis- coved had it not been for the shrewdness ef a Philadelphia gentioman who present- ed himself to Mr. J. M. Vale, chief of the collections division in the office of Third Aaditor Keightley, a fow weeks ago. This gentleman seemed to unite in his person the easy assurance of a man of the world, with the proverbial astutencas of a Philadelphia lawyer. He saluted Mr. Vale, removed a pair of gold-bowed eye-glasses from his nose, presented a letter of introduction from Sunset Cox, and teld hie tale. He had read ina history that General Horatio Gates, of the revolutionary army had never received his five years’ commuta- tion allowance in liew of half pay fer life and be desired to know if such was the fact, and what sum im consequence was due the descendants of General Gates, ou that account. Mr. Vale promised to make inquiry, but as the oldest recerds in the office of Book-keeper Jackson were dated 1872, the task at first seemed hope- less. In the top story of the treasury depart- ment, underneath the roof, are four and one half miles, in lineal feet, of shelving where the records and files of the depart- ment are preserved. No record of Gen- eral Gates’ account could be found in the bookkeeper’s division, and Mr. Vale rum- aged the files. He madearich fiud. In a small book, which had evidently been rebound within the last half century, he discovered all the receipts for eommata- tion of pay granted officers of the revolu- tionary army, among them being the receipt of Gen. Horatio Gates, dated July 1784, at Philadelphia, for $11,690, that amount being the commutation due him in lieu of life half pay allowance. Besides this the reeords of the pay of- fice of the centinental establishment, from 1774 to 1792, were unearthed, and in them the indebtedness of Washingten to the government was fuuud. These old books are in a wonderful state of preser- vation, and they are properly regarded as ope of the greatest cuariusities in the treaspry department. General Washing- tou’s accounts are found in four separate entries iu two volumes of the journals. The money charged to him, and for which credits are given, was on account of his‘ disbursements in the war for indepen- dence. As before stated, the books show that he received $161,339 more than is acceunted for, exclusive of a large balance due the government on Geveral Wash- ington’s specie account. It is impossible now to tell what was the cause of the apparent deficit jn the regular pay ac- coypt, but the deficit in the specie ac- connt is believed to have been due to the depreciation in the value of the ecvlonial coip. The name of Col. Benedict Arnold ap- pears on the recgrd negr that of Washing- tov. A balance of $},831 67 appears by the books to be due the government from Arnold.

He had Jately sold his herds to acompany of capitalists for $1,600,000. They bad not yet made the payment and were already offered $2,000,000 fur the same herds by a London company. He did pot own an acre of land, bat simply sold his cattle mark, The tendency is for outside capital to control the business. I rode over with a Mobile capitalist who was carrying $200,000, with which he was going to set his son up in cattle. He es- timated that the money, that is, the herds, would double every three years, and thut is about the estimate ef the best éatile men of Texas.” Well vow then if raising cattle in Texas pays eco well, why will it not du to try nearer home?

Lowell Courier. ; A well-to-de young man recently mar- ried and started west on his bridal tour. The happy young couple were break fast- ing ata station eating house. During the repast two smart Alecks came into the eating room and seated themselves opposite the contracting parties. They were telegraph opperators. By delicate poising of their knife they were able to make sounds in close imitation of tele- graphy. In the mystic language of the key one said unto the other : **Ain’t she a daisy, though ?” The party thus addressed replied by clicking off : “Wouldn’t I like to kiss her, the little fat angel !” “Wonder who that old bloat is that she has married ?” “Some gorgeous granger I reckon,” re- plied the other. The groom stood it until forbearance ceased to be a virtue, when he alse bal- avced his knife, and click, click it went in rapid succession. It was intelligible tu the very cute twain that had recently made fun of its auther. When interpret- ed it read : J “Dear Sirs :—I am superintendent of the telegraph line upon which you work. You will please send your time to head- quarters and resign your positions at once. . Yours, SUPERINTENDENT OF TELEGRAPH.” ee Fred. Bean, a yonng Iowa farmer, de- sired a wife, but did not take a fancy to the girls of his neighborhood.

An exchange of let- ters and photographs ensued and he is soon to be married to the daughter of a Sioux chief.

There areto day in this county two copper mines in constant operation, producing large quantities of ore, aud one of them employing at times as many as five hundred hands. The mica interest is receiving some attention and some valuable finds are being reported. A mania for building good, dwelling houses inspired our citizens some years ago and for the good of all. those whe want to find good comfortable and roomy houses it coutinues. This spirit is mani- fested in the buildings now in course of erection in town.” Alleghany and Ashe are tweof the best counties in the State, In the latter county there are1,942 farms, having 117,474 acres of improved land worth $1,750,000, and the people are prosperous.

He has already been at work as ap evangelist in the Old Fort field, and will retara thither. A call for the pastoral services of the Rev. T. G. Tharston, from the church at Wilkesboro, was handed in and read. They ask for one-fourth ef bis time, and offer te pay him $175. At the sessien of Wednesday morning the Presbytery took steps fer the better security and protec- tion of the old and valued records of the Chareh. / Mr. White’s lectare last evening, as also his trial sermon of the evening before, bore the impress of thought, research, method, and better still, vital piety. All were gratified after his licensure to learn that there were three applications for his services—two in the bounds of Concord Presbytery and one from Corsicana, Tex- as. Young man like, he thought Texas was his pfoper field, but Presbyters shook their heads and claimed him for services at home.

The gentlemen with the latest steam and water process for the treatment of the sulphuret ores of Stanly county, haa re- turned to New York. After a careful examination of the ores in the above county, it was deemed necessary that in or- der to successfully treat the ores by this process it requires that there should be a liberal amount of free gold in the ores. The most simple process of Amalgama- tion will undoubtedly accomplish the same result where a “liberality of free gold” is called for. But it must be re- membered that in treating su!phurets by this patent process, it needs the existence of the free metal to ensure any marked saccess.

The stamps and amalgamating ma- chivery are running (ouly half time) om the old Field ore, The prospects of this mine (Old Field) are highly encouraging, they have strong lede in the bottom, but the old miners have worked out very nearly everything to the present depth, and a much deeper peiut must be gained ere permanent re- turns can be looked for.

The organization bave nothing in the shape of a mine te start with, cx- cept its stock—beautifully engraved gold bearing stock—signed ad libitum per President et cetera. This stock looks very valuable—it both enthuses the in- vestore and the holders, whe enable this Co, to “stock” the couutry at large. The thing most needed by them at the time wasamine. ‘To obtain a property they approached Mr. C. of Stanly county, and submitted a propesition, viz: to give him several cecimals of stuck for his property. The old man called for figgers —how many stock will that be? They enumerated.

The net protits were $125,- 000. The dividends paid during the year were $60,000. For new machivery $28,- O0UU has been cxpended. The President says that notwithstanding the uufaverable year just passed ‘‘we have made near “21 per cent. net on our capital, after ‘paying all necessary expenses and §2!1.,- ‘000 interest.” This looks as if the basi- ness of manufacturing cotton la in the South was profitable. Exhibits such as that presented by the Graniteville Man- ufacturing Company, will be very apt to influence the erectivun of additional fac- tories iu the Southern States. The above statements are taken from the Goldsbore Messenger. They are pub- lished to show to our people the pro- ductive of jmanufactaring cotton goods. Salisbury with even-one factory would be a point of mach more interest to the trad- ing public. Bat why stopat one? We haye many advantages, and the demand for the mauufactared goods will be con- stant, so that five factories could thrive as well as one. This subject of mauufactaring, including both tobacco and cotton, is an exceedingly interesting one.

In that report it was stated that there had been collected over eight thousand dollars iu taxes. I have since learned from a reliable source that of the ee about three hundred {or less than one twenty-fifth) was cellected from the negroes. It seems to me that this is “gute. in view of fact that we are to be governed for the next year by a Mayor and board of Com- missioners who were nominated and elected by . Another reflection, which may beto the edification of the good people of Salisbury is that of the votes which Capt. Ramsay received 250 were cast by ess than one- tenth of his vote being cast by white men, —now as a matter of fairness and justice to the race that elected the Captain and his board the negroes ought to have at least nine-tenths of the offices. And without desiring to be considered officious I would like to suggest that in considera- tion of the not only important, but abso- lately necessary services rendered by the men and brethren at the polls, the office of City Clerk, City Treasurer, Tax Collector aud Cotton weigher, should be filled by negroes ; and as a reward for the valuable services of the twenty-five white men, who manfually stood shoulder to shoulder with their colored brethren and voted the ticket prepared for them by a convention com} of about forty negroes and a scalawag, the office of Hay weigher might with propriety be givev to a white man. The negroes certainly did their fall share of voting by which the captain and his board were elected, and they desire their share of the rewards in the shape of town offices. They should demand them, aud they have a right to expect that their demands shall receive that respectful consideration to which their voting strength entitles them. > me For the Watchman. STEELE Townsuip, May, 3, 1883. Mr, Editor :—The object of this artitle is to notice sume of the changes that have taken place in the system of farming in this section, known as the Seotch Irish part of Rowan, since they year 1859, when the writer first settled here: This section is west of Salisbury, and embraces the congregations of Third Creek, Back Creek, Thyatira, and a portion of Unity. The upland soil is chiefly red or mulatto, with no sand. At the time above mentioned many of the farmers bad turned their attention to tobacce as a staple crop, to take the place of cotton, which was then cultivated toa considerable extent. But owing to the absence of sand in the soil, and commercial fertilizers being then un- known, the yield of cotton had never been satisfactory, and for the former part of the cause, tobacco failed to take the stand that farmers thought it would in this partic- ular loeality. Since the introduction of Phosphates, the yield of cotton has been increased, and consequeutly the acreage has been greatly increased ; and by this in- crease the true system of farming for our lands has been greatly retarded. In the excitement to make money by short-hand methods, the average farmer lost sight of the first great principle in the economy of farming, viz: The improvement and build- ing up of his exhausted soil. In those days clover and the cultivated grasses were al- most entirely unknown; only a few hada clever patch near their barn to graze their horses on when not at work. The idea of clover as a fertilizer was not popularly en- tertained. The system was, tu cut down the forests, burn the timber, cultivate the land in corn, follow with wheat until the land got too poor to bring wheat; then corn followed by oats until the land was too poor to bring corn and oats, and then turn out to gullies, broom sage and stunted bri- ars, as worthless. But for the past few years a change has been gradually coming on. The old broom sage fields are giving way, and in places luxuriant fields of clover have taken their place; and we are beginning to realize that old fields can be brought into a state of high cultivation easier than the forest can be cleared and cultivated. Be- sides it takes many years to get rid of the stumps, which the old ficlds are already clear of ; and improved labor saving imple- ment can be used, and by their use the im- provement can be greatly facilitated. Clo- ver is nuw the key-note, with deep and thorough plowing. Any system of farming without clover is retrograding. To prove this to your satisfaction you have only to look out upon the numerous old washed, impoverished tields where never a stalk of clover grew. These lands were once rich, but by a piratical system of robbing them, year after year, they have been brought to abject poverty, and the lank, lightning-rod cows that eke out an existence upon them compare faverably with the so-called farm- ers who have made them so. We have but little land that is not easily improved: The first step isto get a stand of clover. This can be done by thorough plowing and secding down in small grain; top dressing lightly with some kind of man- ure or phosphate. If you fuil the first time try again: success is sure if you persevere. Either sow your clover with your drill and let your drill ho¢s run in (they will do your wheat good), or drag your large harrow over it. Clover seed must be covered to insure a stand. When once you get a stand you have made a fair start up the hill. Turn your clover every other ycar, and seed the land in wheat or any other small grain. Your clover stand, if imperfect at first, will soon become perfect; and your land wiil get better every year. Asa natural conse- quence stock raising will follow clover. As I write this I can look upon a 40 acre field in the distance that ten years ago would not produce five bushels of wheat to the acre, or a corn stalk as large as your finger. This year the amount of clover that can be cut from it is enormous, and it is perfectly safe for 20 bushels of wheat per acre and upwards, Ten years ago the owner com menced sowing clover—bis farm was con- sidered as worn out at the clogg of the war— to day it is considered the finest grain farm in Rowan, to say nothing of the numerous herds of improved steck upon it, worth more in dollars and cents than the fertile fields upon which they graze. All of this clover, with thorough cultivation, Say, brother farmers, can any of you “cotton” to that ? CLop KNOcCKER. has been accomplished by the key—note, |- aa.

The press of theSo has spoken of Mr. Foley in the most glow- ing terms. We have space only for the fol- lowing extract from the Birmingham (Ala.) Age, which says: The citizens of Birming- ham are to be Congratulated on the intel— lectual feast given by Mr. Foley, a distin- guished barrister of the Crescent City. The subject of Mr. Foley’s lecture was the ‘Fo- rensic Orators of Athens, Rome, England and Ircland,’ and also an analytical and comparative examination of their produc— tions. It may be cenceived what an inter— esting process this was, when we consider that these productions bring before the mind, like a panorama, grand historic ep- ochs, and conduct us into the v arcana of the period in which they were delivered. They were portrayed in a style that belongs only to a man having in himself a kindred soul.

Iw thi Watchman, Dec, 14, 1882, you say : “Phe first copper mines opened iv the United States wére worked iv Connecti- cut.” a In early times copper mines were work- ed. atthe town of Simsbury, Conn:, about 15 wiles norchwest of Hartford. - ‘The dis- covery of the copper was made in 1705; and ore wasdug*threre for a long time. At first the wines did not smelt the ore ; but at lefth the proprietors made a con- tratt with three clergymen to reduce the ore‘and cast the metal iv bars fiffor trans- portation.” One tenth was given to the tewn, and of this two-thirds were to sup- porta school, and one third was to go to Yale-Oullege. “Wealthy capitalist from Boston and New York and Europe en- gaged in the work, and furnished funds for the» purpose. The operations were carried on extensively from 1713 to 1737, and on to 1775. In 1723 it was stated that these mines had brought into the { coboby 10,000 pounds. The works most improved and where the greatest excava- tions had been made were purchased for i State prison. Two perpendicular shafts had been Gag through rock, ove 70 feet, the other 35 feet dcep. From the bottom i ‘/ of these, tunnels were carried iu different directions, some of them 500 feet. Some of the copper was coined into money of the value of 42 cents in paper currency with the inscription on one side “I'am good copper,” on the other “value me as you please ;” one of them is preserved, dated 1737; but they did uot circulate af- ter 1783. ln 17738, the General Assembly of the State took measures to establish a peni- tentiary at these mines. By -dlasting rocks they prepared a lodging room 12 by 12 in the caverns, and tixed over one shaft a large iron door; there were no Leildiugeo@the preiiliséy, andthe other shaft. was lefmopen. The prisos®rs were employed in digging the ore, and appa- rently kept under ground all the time. [¢ was called New Gate prison. The criminals were those guilty of burglary, horse stealing, counterfeiting coin bills, or making dies for it. As one shaft was left open, aud other passages not se- cured the early prisoners all escaped through these. In 1775, threo escaped and then they secured the other shaft and built a block house over one shaft— this was destroyed by tire in 1776, when a new one was made, a dwelling house for the keeper. This was burnt in 1779, and new buildings were ereéted ov- er'the mouth of the cavern suitable to keep the prisoners at labor in the day time, up to this time they had been em- ployed in mining; now they were put to mechauieal operations. There was no wall around the prison till 1781, when a picket fence with bas- tians was put around it. But that year when there were 23 prisoners, they or and TY) rose en the guard, seized their arms, locked them in the cavern and escaped — a good many of thew were tories. It was thought to be a very strong prison. Gen. Washington sent them some men for confinement from Cambridge. He said: “GENTLEMEN: The prisoners which will be delivered you with this, having been tried by a court martial, and deem- ed to.be such flagrant and atrocious vil- lians@hat that they cavnot by any means be le&at larg¢or coufined in any place near this camp, were genteneed tu besent to Simsbury GP Confiecticat. You will therefore be pleased to have them secur ed in your jail, or in such other manner as to you shall seem necessary, so that they cannot possibly make their escape. The charge of their imprisonment will be at the continental expeuse. I am, &c., GEORGE WaASsINGTON,.” In 1731 Congress proposed to make these mines a place for the reception of British prisoners of war, but this was vot carried oat. They were fora time disnsed, but iv 1790 a vew act was passed constituting them again coustituting them a State prison, called as before New Gate. A large work shop and a dwelling Louse ot brick were coustructed. Under one eed of the house was a reom secured by was- sive stoug wallsfrom which led the duly passage to the cavern. This was through a solid rock ; the mouth of. this entrance was the one leading into the guard rvom Laeeared by a trap door heavy bolts. Thg prisou- d inthe caverns.

FL R. The Horrors of Solitary Confine- ment. A correspondent of the St. Louis Globe Denioerat, describing Joliet, M1, State penitentiary, says the system of solitary confinement iterits some description. At a point within the prison yard, at the extremity of one of the great cell houses and far removed from the noise aud hum of thé workshops, is a stone building, in which are arranged ih two galleries forty solitary cells. Eucli i8‘about fOx1é feet iu dimensions and 15 feet in the clear, A long horiZénfil Window, perhaps 6 feet. in width by eight fuches in height, loca- ted near the top of the cell, admits light andair. Itis sank in the heavy walls, and rarely do the sun’s rays penetrate the interior of the-tomb-like apartment. The floor of the cell is of stoue, the ceiling is painted white, the walls are a glaring white. The two bits of color im the cell are the black irons of the inner grating and the red wooden bucket, in the eorner of the cell. That backet isthe only piece of furniture. The prisouer tebe punished is led to one of these cells and handenuffed to the inner grating, bis arms being at the natural elevation. A heavy wooden door shuts off a view of the corridor. He is alone amidst a silence as profound as, the grave. His own voice, should he raise it in protest of his fate, is thrown back to him by the cold, pitiless walls, and the echo causes him to start. He looks around and nothing meets bis eyes but the glistening white walls. At first he does not notice this, Ere long his eyes, used to the moving life of the workshop, tening, blank view. ‘The feeling, at first irksome, becomes painful. He tries to look at the window above, bat it is so ar- ranged that he sees nethiug but the flood of light. The blue sky he remembers on- ly as a thing of beanty never heeded be- fure. A glimpse of it now would bea boon inestimable. He tries to Bhut his eyes, to relieve them of the glistening, blauk impression, but his disordered uerves cause strapge lights, and an an- noying phantasmaygoria of grotesque and ever-changing figures to dauce through his brain. If he is of an acute nervous formation, this soon becomes torture to him, and he fears that be is loosing his mind, Some of the must rebellious spit- its have been quelled by a brief retire- ment in these merciless white cells. A Remarkable Bed. There has been on view inv Paris a bed of rare and singular construction, made to the order of an Indian prince. The bedstead, which is of satin wood, with large plates of silver repousse work, is very beautifully carved, and has cost upwards of $12,000. ‘The most original part of this bed is the mattress, which has been fitted up as a musical box, so that directly anyone lies down it plays tunes selected from Gounod’s operas. At the four corners of the bed are four statues, represent- ing young girls of Spanish, Greek, [talian and French nationality, their only ornament being a gold snake bracelet twisted around the wrist, which holds the fan they are waving over the sleeper. By an ingenious contrivance of the artist employed to cast these statues the eyes have been made to move; aud the realistic ap- pearance of these young ladies is heightened by the addition of four wigsin four shades of color, supposed te bé tipical of each nation. ‘The arms of raja are carved at the head of the bedstead, which, though in shocking bad taste, is a marvel of workman- ship. _=_- A Home-Made Telephone, The American Farmer gives the ful- lowing direttions for making a cheap home-tpake telephone : ‘To make a good and _ serviceable telephone, good from one farm house to another, only requires enough wire und two cigar boxes. First select your boxes, and make a hole about half au inch in diameter in the center of the botton) Ofeueh, and then place one in each of the Louses you wigh to connect ; then get five pomnds of com- mon iron stove pipe wire, make a loop at one end and put it throngh the hole in your eigar box and fasten it with a nail; then draw it tight to the other-box, supporting it when necessary with a stoutcord. You can easily run your line into the house by boring a hole through the glass. Sup- port your boxes with slats nailed across the window, and your tele- phone is complete. The writer has one that is 200 yards long and cost forty-five cents that will carry music when the organ is played thirty feet away in another room. ‘ » _—-- Goldsbore Messenger: The Confeder- ate monument is now ready to be unveil- ed on Thursday.

Leeomes am easy prey to disease. Dyspepsia is-geverally the first dis- eased condition caused by constipation. ‘The liver soon becomes involved as a result of indigestion, then the kidueys. I¢.is,.evident that a long continued derangement of either of these impor- tant organs must result most unfortu- nately. Alb experience proves that habitual constipation isa very unsafe condition of the system, and one lia- ble at any time to develop 4neurable diseases. Various plans have been devised for the cure of this distressing com - plaint; but we do not believe in re- stricting the treatment -to anv one metyods must be employed, and em- ploped persistently. Some will after a while lose. their effect, and others must be substituted; no quarter should be shown until this great enemy to health is overcome. ‘The habit-of ta- king purgative medicines to relieve the bowels often inereases the trouble; that is, the system becomes accustom- ed to this remedy and there is no re- lief without it ; the remedy debilitates, and it beeomes only a question of time how long the treatment can be borne, : As in this case there is always a torpid liver, we should commence the treatment with a mild cathartic—as two or three liver pills; and then pay especial attention to the diet. Bread made from crushed wheat or oat meal should be used ; we should not restrict the patient as to other foods, except as to quantity. He should eat enough, but not overload the stomach. A tumbler of cold water with a teaspoon- ful of table salt dissolved in it and drank every morning half an hour before breakfast often acts like magic in restoring the bowels to their natu- al'condition. ‘There are many cases of obstinate constipation, where the whole trouble exists in the lower part of the rectum, by impacting of fecal matter, due to feeble action of the muscles, and to a congested and dry condition of the mucus membrane at that point. We have never found a remedy that so promptly relieved this form of constipation as Nelaton’s Sup- pository. ‘This treatment alone is sometimes sufficient to cure such cases ; and where the trouble is more general, the suppository will be found a most valuable addition to the list of remedies, Regular and vigorous out-door ex- ercise is all important. Kneading the bowels with the hands Jas been re- commended ; alsop the drinking of water frequently, to. which we should always add a little table salt. The frequent use of a syringe should be avoided, for much the same reason that cathartics ought to be avoided. No harsh or very active treatment is required in these cases ; but mild rem- edies may be employed persistently ; in fact, they should never be remitted util the bowels become regular and the health is restored. We believe that a majority of cases are curable. We know of one case of great severi- ty that lasted twenty-two years, and was then cured, although the general health has never been fu:ly restored. —FHatl’s Jouanal of Health. - Kinpity Coynser,—It would be more creditable for Gen.

New York Tribune (Inspired by Mr. Conk- ling’s Speech.) Several things were, indeed, “put back” as the result of the Chicago Convention, but the country was not one of them. The third term conspiracy was put back, The boss system was put back. The snap primary plan of turning ae dare delegates was put ack, The attempt to throttle district representation was put back. The machine in New York and Pennsylvania was put back. The idea entertained by sundry gentlemen that they carried the party round in their collective breeches pockets was put back, The impression that was rapidly making headway that “government of the people by the people” was played out was put back. These are some of the leading things that were put back as a result of that great conventiva. And by so much as they were put back, and have been kept where they were put, the country has advanced politically since the day when the beloved and admired Garfield was nominated. The Weather, How It wilt Change After the Moon Changes. The following table was construct- ed by the celebrated Dr. Herschell, upon a philosophic consideration of the attraction of the sun and moon.

But that the genuine ass—equus asinue—should assame the prominence in a suit which has been attained by a Cali- foruia donkey was not to be expected, The suit ia whieh our ass is interested has just been commenced in Mariposa county. Mr. Black isa well-te-do resi- dent-of Bull Creek, in that county, and is the owner of a herd of fine cattle. Lately a grizzly bear has been making nightly forays on his corral, killing and carrying off bis-calves. A short time since he pub- lished an advertisement offering $50 re- ward toany person who weuld kill the bear. William Opie, also a citizen of Bull Creek, is the possessor of a jackass. One night, a fortnight since, the jackass broke dewn a portion of Mr. Black’s cor- ral fence and began to eat hay with the cattle. While he was thus engaged the grizzly bear made a descent on the carrol, and by mistake seized upon him. A des- perate combat ensued between the dunkey aud the bear. They fought all over the eartol, bat finally the jackass kicked and chewed the grizzly to death. Next worn- bing the badly lacerated donkey was found quietly eating Mr. Black’s hay, while his grim autagonist lay vear by, dead. When Mr. Opie came to get his animal he made demand upon Mr. Black fer the $50 reward he had offered for kill- ing the bear. Mr. Black declined to pay until a power of attorney could be pro- duced from the donkey, and to Mr. Opie’s astonishment presented him with a bill for $25, the estimated damage by the jackass to the carrol. Mr. Opie immedi- ately sued Mr. Black, setting forth in his complaint the facts of the offering of the reward, the killing of the bear, and the further fact that the jackass is bis lawful property, and therefore prays judgment in his favor for fifty dollars and cost of sait. Black in his answer admitted the allegations of the complaint, but avers that the reward was offered to any person killing the bear; that the jack is nota person within the meaning of the statute, and that if he were, Mr. Opie is not his bis legal guardian, and in default of a power of attorney or any assignment is not entitled to sue for the recevery of his claim. He farther alleges that Mr. Opie, owning the jackass, is responsible for the damage done to his carrol. Wherefore be prays judgment in his favor for $25 and his cost in the action. Take the case, gentlemen.— Ex. I I The trial of Hon, Phil. B. Thompson, who shot Walter H. Davis ander such distressing and sensational circumstances on the morning of April 27th, at Harrods- burg, Kentucky, promises to be one of the most remarkable in the annals of cel- ebrated causes. Hon. J.C. 8. Blackburn, M. C., has been retained as leading coun- sel for the defense, aud Senator Daniel Voorhees, of Indiana, will assist on that side, Thompson being an old friend of his. The interest in the trial is so great that men are anxious to serve as jurors in order that they may hear the whole case, and from the prelimivary steps so far taken it is evident that the attorneys for and against Thompson are determin- ed to fight every inch of ground.—News- Observer. LL SS Fred Douglas defends the motives of himself and associates in calling a color- ed convention in Washington, and says that it has no secret purpose ; that its only object is to advance the interests of the colored race, and that there is no more reason why there should not bea colored convention than that the ceuven- tions of Irishmen, wemen, temperance ple, workingmen, and religious socie— should be abandoned.

Before six o'clock seven immense tanks were blazing. Rivers of fire swept aroned the bottoms of other ‘| tanks while the flames bombarded them from above. It was soon discovered to be useless work to play upon the flames and all efforts were directed to prevent them from spreading. This was partial- ly successfull until nearly 5 o’cloek, when tank No. 7 exploded with a terrific re- port, and the blazing oil spread - with lightniog rapidity. Fire Chief Farrier and a namber of men were within ten yards of this tank when it exploded and were saved by a miracle. Dropping the hose which was soon burned to ashes, they fled for their lives. When they mastered together at a safe distance six of their number were fuund to be missing. The smoke was so dense that it was impes- sible te tell which way one was going and it is thonght that the unfortunate men ran towards the water of the bay and were lost. The bay was a sheet of flaming oil and a long trestle bridge of railway, about a qnarter of a mile long, rupvivg from the works to Black Tom’s Island, was burned down te the water's edge. The fragments of the iron tanks were hurled half a mile by the force of -the explosion. Many people in the neighborhood vaca- ted their houses. The space burned over covers an area avout three quarters of a mile along the bay and a quarter of a mile inland. The wind blew from the southeast. A slight change te northerly would have caused the destruction of the Eagle refinery works and an indefinite amount of valuable property besides. oO or The Print of a Felon’s Hand. On the side of the public road between this place aud Harrie’ Chapel, Tuckshoe Neck, Md., stands a large sized poplar tree, perbaps three feet in diameter at the groand, and on the bark, some ten feet from the base, is the mark of a buman hand, which it has borne fer about twenty years past. It was produced in the following manner : In 1861, James Wilson a bright malatte, about twenty- three years of age, committed a terrible crime upon a little child. He was hup- ted down, owned the crime, and was lodged in our jail. A few nights after- ward he was forcibly taken frem the jail and hung and shot in the rear ef that building by the infuriated populace of the peighborhood ia which the crime was perpetrated. After he was dead his body was cat in pieces and burned ov the outskirts of thetewn. But one of the hands, cut off at the wrist, was taken io charge by some one, and with a good sized nai] was spiked te this poplar tree. It remained there uatil it decayed, and now, the handprint, full sized, may be seen on the bark of the tree, the nail which held it 1m position still fast in the three.

Cotton Weigher, A. S. Lewter. Hay Weigher, G. W. Wright. Sexton, J. J. Bell. For some reasun, best known to the board, the election of Policemen was postponed for several weeks. It is re- ported that there are several colored ap- plicants clamering for these places. While the colored vote entitled them to recognition in the distribution of offices, yet it would hardly work to have colored policemen here. Owing to the prejadice which already exists between the races caused by several unfortunate circum- stances, needless to mention,—there would be endless trouble. — Dr. W. A. Wilborn, principal of the Graded school has had a call to go Texas and take charge of a large school. Mr. J. F. Moser, also a teacher in our graded school, has been offered a profess- orabip in the large and flourishing Col- lege, at Conover’ There is one thing certain, and that is that the peuple of Salisbury must have a school for the education of the six or eight handred white children growing up within her limits. Should all the teachers leave the tewn, and the graded school building stand idle, two things would follow. | First, those who are able to educate their children would support private schools, or send their children away, and seconu, those who are not able to pay tuition in a private school must grow up in igno- rance, It 1s a lamentable fact the white people in the county are not so diligent in the pursuit of knowledge, through the medium of the schvol room, as are the colored people. ‘Tliese few facts are fued for thought for the powers that be. oO fa” The vext best thing that the Com- missiovers of Salisbury car do io respect to street improvement, since the people have refused to make a debt, will be to begin mow to consider the subject in the light of all the facts attainable as to the best possible method of proceeding under the circumstances. And whilst we do not assume to judge fur them, we respect- fully suggest that our old methods-are neither wise noreconomical. It does not pay to hire men to work with picks and shovels where it is possible te employ scrapers and horse power. It is not eco- nonical to hire men to break stone with hammers where it is practicable to have it done by crushers, as at the gold mines in this vicinity. These and other details are fitting subjects of inquiry when it comes to be considered what can be done on thia important subject with the means available for the purpose. And if we are correctly informed this is no trifliog sum. It is possible to appropriate from $1,500 to $1,800 a year from the receipts per annum, after meeting other necessary ex- penses and paying off part of the town debt. This ought to be safficient tu ac- complish a valuable, permanent improve- ment every year ; and if judiciously man- aged will certainly do it; and if prose- cuted with steadiness, would in a few years accomplish all the good proposed by a public debt. And this is the method of preceeding which seems popular at this particular time ; and one of the arguments in support of it is, that it avoids a grivd ing public debt. We are aware that there are members in the new Board who are practical on read questions, and who are well aware of the wastefulness of all merely tempo- rary repairs. But with not less than six miles of road-ways and nearly double that of pavements to put in readiness for winter and keep io erder, with clamoring citizens in every part of the town fora little work here and a little there, it is feared that they will not be able to ac- complish anything in the way of a per- manent improvement.

The deepest shaft is 50 feet. Very little work has been cone, only a tannel driven about 20 feet on the lode, and most of the backs stoped away. The deep Randelpb shaft at Geld Hill isclear of water. The forking of the water from this shaft, 750 deep, with same 900 feet of drift and open stepes has been the absorbing work for the past few months. The necessary preparations for sinking will be completed in a few days when they will begin to go down in whole ground.

Mr: Editor: Sidce writing my last, the health of this community has remained good. But like all other sections, it is vet entirely exempt from sickuess, aud we often see Dr. J. G. Ramsay, the local physician, making his daily rounds visiting patienta, Mrs. Sibia Hughey, who, for several months has been soffering with angular curvature of the spine, started on Thars- day evening for, the National Surgical Institute, Atlanta Ga., to which place she bas gove for treatment. She was accom- } panied by her kinsman, Mr. T. N. Ren- | Shaw. ‘Lhe farmers here have not fully recov— ered from the damage done by the late rain and hail storm. The plowed and | planted lands were sv much washed, and beaten down, that much coru planted prior tothe storm, failed to come up, copseqnently the stand is rather poor, and ip some instances, they have plowed it up, and plauted over again, and in this way they are getting rather a late start. At this writing, wheat is looking very fine, inuch of it being in heads. We learn that a petition will be pre- sented at the next regular meeting of the Board of County Commissioners, asking for the laying out of a public road lead- ing from some point ou the Wilksboro road, near Thos. Niblock’s, thence via. Baker’s will on 4th creek, to Third Creek on the W. N.C. R. R. If granted there will be a contiuous thorvuughfare from the Wilkesboro ruad to Chiua Grove,from which point, there is, we believe, alrea- dy a road leading toThird Creek Station. It will involve the building of a bridge at public expenss across 4ih Creek, be- low Baker’s Mill, Which we think would be just and proper, as it isa great hard- ship upen Mrs. Baker, who is a widow lady, tou keep ap the bridge, especially as the road will not be one of mere local or sectional advantage, but one of abselute public necessity as there is now a large and growing trade at Third Creek station and much of the produce of this section passes over this road, besides its being a Church and mill read. By an Act of the last General Assem- bly, the town of Third Creek was char- tered. At the recent election, Dr. 8. W. Eaton was elected Mayor, with J. A. Ly- erly, R. M. Roseboro and A. D. Moore as Commissioners, and Ruatus Lyerly as Marshall, and the place has regularly and formally assumed the dignity of a Town. ‘Taking thé depot as a centre, the village embraces ap area ef 3 of a mile each way, thus making it 14 wiles square quite a considerable piace. The village, as we have befere stated, bas four stores, in which general mer- chandise is kept. The proprictors are, Messrs. J. A. Lyerly, R. M. Roseboro, Allison Bros., aud R. A. Barrougha. The village embraces a population of about 100, iucluding white and culored. The two steam ee gius at the place ginned abeut 600 bales, which was al! shipped from that point during the last season. The Allison Bros., have now iv course of construction, a maguiticent dwelling, and mavy other sigus of im- provement are to be seen. The place enjoys as good bealth as any community, aud is located iu the very heart ef the most fertile lands in Rowan, embracing portions of both Scotch Irish and Mt. Ulla. Having already a large and growing trade, it seems to us to be a time ago, remains in custody of the father. i very inviting place for men of capital. ductions weuld likely have out of debt. Again, from the bad condition of some of the roads leading inte town, than its predecessors. And, furthermore, an erroneous state- board brought a heavier debt upon the town by the “Morrison suit” than before. The true intent ef the writer, however, was to show that if we could be fortanate in securing the election of another sach Board, the debt of several thousand dol- lars which is upon the town might.soon be paid off without placing a heavier burden of taxes on the people. Hope the Exvamtner may make an ex- hibit of hew the machinery ef the town government has been ran ; for doubtless, the public wilt properly appreciate what- ever facts may be given relating te its af- fairs. Deo. et The Pope te the Irish Clergy. Rome, May 15.—The Pope in his circu- lar to the Irish bishops says whatever Parvell’s object may be his followers have often adopted a course openly agaiust the rules of the Pope’s letter to Cardinal McCabe, and instructions sent to the Bishops which were accepted at their recent meeting in Dublia. While it is lawful for the Irish to seek redrese for their grievances and to strive for their rights, they should at the same time seek Geod’s justice and remember the wicked- ness of illegal means in furthering even a just cause. It is the duty of the clergy to curb the excited feelings of the people and to urge justice and moderation. The clergy are not permitted to depart from these rules and to jein and promote movements in- consisteut with them. Collections to re- lieve the distressed are permitted, but subscriptions to inflame popular passions are condemned, The clergy must hold aleof when it is plain that by such move- ments hatred aud dissention, are aroused or distinguished persons insulted, and when crimes and murders go uvrebaked aud when patriotism is measured by thie amount subscribed. Therefore the Par- vel] fund is disapproved and nocleryman should recommend sabscriptions therete or promote it. A Hitch in Raleigh.

At the age of six he had all the development of strength and muscle usu- ally found iu a lad of fifteen. At twelve his beard was grown and gray hairs ap- peared.

Here is a pleasant story illustrating the civilization of Massachusetts: A certain “philosopher,” in hie declining years, feeling the needs of a wife’s care, chose from among his lady acquaintances a rather bright woman of censiderable pro- perty and offered himself to her. The lady was presumably surprised ; at any rate she refused him decidedly.

St. Louis Republican: Tweuty years ago the Mauchester road,a fine, broad turnpike leading from the city of St. Louis a distance of nearly thirty miles through St. Louis county, was inhabited on both sides almost exclusively by American farmers whose homes were the abodes of a liberal hospitality. Perhaps there was too mach hospitality in them; perbaps this accounts fur the change that has taken places At any rate, nearly all the farms on this noble road have passed outof the Lands of Americans into the hands of Germans, and it is now a German highway from one end to the other.

ALLcock’s PLAastTEers have been of such great service to me and mine that I feel, it a duty to state the facts, as briefly as possi- ble, to induce others.to usethem. My wife for many.years was confined to her bed, suffering from spinal disease. After spend- ing a thousand dollars in vain effort to get cured, she applied three ALLCocK’s PLas— TERs to the spinal column, one ‘above the other. Ina few days all pain left her. She applied fresh plasters every two wecks and in the course of two months she com-= pletely recovered her health. At first she could hardly walk across the room; each day she walked a little further, and now she is able to walk five miles without fa- tigne. She still occasionally applies the plasters to her back, but she has been per- fectly well for upward of a year, LEWIS L, HAMMEL, CURE OF SPRAIN. 554 Main St., HartForp, Conn., " April 26, 1879. 5 Will you please send me an ALLcock’s Porous PLasTerR, 20 inches long by 7 inches wide, to use on my back for weak- ness of kidneys.

A Boston physiciau has dicovered a process by which vewly distilled spirits can be made chemically pure in a few days, the product being even better than spirits of the best quality, which have been “aged” by storing them for many years in wooden casks. The liquor is washed with air. Two thousand gallons are poured ivto an airtight copper tank in which there is a coil of pipes. The air to be used is first heated and purified by the Tyudall process, and is then foreed into the tank through small holes in the pipes at the bottom of the coil. The inventor tries to get the greatest possible amount of air in contact with every drop of the liquor in the shortest possible time. It is said that by this process all the pois- onous etbers and other deleterious sub- stances are removed more effectually thau they cap be by ‘‘agiug” in the ordinary way, and the raw liquor, just distilled cau be thoroughly purified in @ short time. The proof is fally preserved by use ot a series of condensing and test tanks. The process has been used for nearly a year diverted towards the northeast and at’ homes now. “THe progress in that Seventh street near Oliver its advance direction has been slow and painful ; was checked and its force seems to! have been spent at that point.

Mickey, of Salem, has been put- ting his inventive genius to good use. Among ether thingshis patent im- proved fire escape takes the lead. He claims that it is the only automatic, burglar-proot, life-saving fire-escape that shields persons from the burning building, and gives alarm with bell attachment in every store as it raises. Other fire escapes do-wot give satisfac- tion as with statior ary ladders children aud invalids must be carried by stout firemen, the smal} escapes fastened or let down from windows, are condema- ed, as so many people make their-es- cape at night without paying their bills. Mr. Mickey’a escape can be raised by any child in a few seeonds, and is always free of ice and can be used before firemen arrive, and his fire-ladder can be raised without the tower any height an@in any position as it is placed on a turp-table on a wagon with wheels, and can be raised by persons or horses at the building in one minute. .We have examined the model and, in our judgment, pro- nounce it all O.

Cuicago, May 17.—The execu; tive committee of the cigar makers preventative. union yesterday afternocn heard the testimony of six young girls employ- the South generally.” “The colored people are accnmula- ting considerable wealth, then, are they not?” “Yes; there are a good many quite wealthy men among the eolored pop- ulation now. I don’t know of more than one or two who could be coun- ted millionaires; but there are a good many who run up into the hundreds of thousands, and large numbers who are worth, say $25,000. The colored man, as a rule, is great-on-real estate. Let him get possession of a few feet of ground—a home—and: he will never part with it-if he can help it. He will almost starve rather than do so; and that isa good spirit, I think. Make hima tax payer and owner of the soil, and you make him a good citizen.” “From the standpoint of morality, do you think there is much to be said ?” “Yes, a good deal. The Metho- dist and Baptist Churches alone have nearly a million and a half of colored people, and . the amount of church property they own is quite wonderful. ‘The percentage of crime among them is not large, and the marital relation to-day is finitely more sacred among the colored people as @ class than it was a few years ago?” “Yes?” (Vian aT I havesaid a Yes.

Cousequently, the chivalrous care which these lads were taught to show to their own sisters naturally extended itself to all women. They grew up true gentlemen—gentlemen, generous, unex- acting, courteous of speech and kind of heart. In them was the protected strength of mavhood, which scorns to use its strength except for protection; the proud honesty of manhood, which infinitely pre- fers being lovingly resisted to being “twisted round one’s finger,” as mean men are twisted, and mean women will always be found ready to do it, but which I think, all honest men and brave women would not merely dislike, but utterly de- spise.—Author of John Halifaz. ———_ + o——__—__—_—— lies and is to stand on the northwest corner Fifty-seventh street and Sev- said Bruce with a_ laugh, “but I just | ing, when the roof is on, will be 182 want to add one tion a8 t6 Otir progress.” “Well ?” well, we Tiave the dudé, the col- oréa dade, fall ffedged and 4s pro- iced Us the white race can pro-| ané ofit as he’ will contain fifteen stories. “ve have be of stone, brick and iron throngh- England will have enemies on this sjde duée.” arid his laugh rang clinibed the treasury steps, lthe dude,” nore statement which I think will settle the ques- er than any othér house in New York.

The streets began to fil] up about nine o'clock and it was soon apparent that we were to have a larger crowd than was antici- pated. An excussion train of six.coaches from Columbia, and one of three from Statesville, emptied crowds of visitors into the city about ten o’clock, and vehi- cles were rolliug in from all directions all morning. The gumber of visitors at the lowest estimate was put at aboat 3,000. At one o’clock the procession be- gan te form and at two it was ready to move. Capt.Jno. R.

A good frame structure is not so easily toru te pieces as one of bri®k, and it has been shown beyond a dombt that the losa of life iu families ocettpying frame dwell- ings in ti path of a cyelone is pot as great as among those living in brick hoases. The same force that will utterly demolish the latter and bury the inmates in the ruins may. tear a frame building from its foundation and wrentch it out of shape and yet leave the occupants unin- jured. Moreover, it is reasonably safe to take refngo in the ceMar of a frame house; but net so with a brick, which is liable to come tumbling about you when struck by the storm king. Therefore in the re- gions periodically swept by tornadoes, strong wooden stiuctures are fur better than dwellings made of any other mate- rial. While this is by no means a new idea, it can not be tee often urged upon the attention of the people in the Upper Mississippi Valley, inasmuch as the loss of life from terrific storms seems to in- crease year after year.—Ctn.

Mr. Walter T. MeArthar, of Mentgomery county, who is probably one of the larg- est sheep owners in Georgia, has for sev- eral years had two of these dogs, which, during that period, have served him well and faithfaNy in the care of his flocks.

The sheep composing Mr. MeArthur’s flocks were purchased frem several different persons, and each particular let naturally remain tegether and rather separated from the ethers, each of these bunches being designated by the name of the par- ty from whom they were purchased. These dogs can, at any time, be-sent fer inte the woods for a specified bunct it oaly being necessary to give its name, thus: “The MeCloud sheep,” or ‘the Nash sheep,” and a failure on their part Brunswick (G k missing, is reckoned among the phenom- onal occurreuces..

There are very few grown people who do not like pets of some kind or other. Some havea peculiar fou'- ness for horkes, whilst othérs care less for this noble animal, but prefer a fine specimen of the cattle family, Others, agdin, have their fancy tor sheep, some fur hous, and so on. All this shows the diversity of tastes among those who ure looking to these inferior credturesas helpers in the performance of their stuj endous work. But whilst we observe these fancy tastes creeping out all over the adult race, there is an equal quantity of it in the children. ft does one’s heart good to see te. child express its wish in the hope of now receiving a prom- ised pet in something or other, or to bebold. the veut of joy in the ex- pressed satisfaction with the pet he has had. in possession for some time. These things tell us weare not created, neither endowed, to be sel- fish, either to one another or to abuse the comfort that pets can give us. I look upon them asa abe means o draw out the loving, smi.ing and hap. py feeling lying hidden in the soul ; and in the enjoyment such little creatures affard us.we forget,.if not for always, yet for the time being, the sad pressure and the heavy load a wicked and polluted world | is still trying to ay upon us... Hence the means by which some alienation at least is brougnt within reach uf those who Took for them and delight iv their use. _ Let not, then, the old map or the aged woman say that they are ashamed that still such a love for pets clings to them, and that such things age mere- ly for the little ones. They are for th® little ones, it is true,and alike for the big ohes. Parents, get such pets’ for your children as will en- courage them, fhake life sweet, and bring many 4 fittle joy and smile to the sweet little lips which perhaps had to “be fepressed were it not for the pet or pets papa and mama get for them: It is ‘noble and ingpirin to haven desite for such things. i love» the feeling dearly in both old and young, in rich and poor, in high / 4 A stro | bed in full | known sea wh {and baby, sat on the be hand «in bers, and beggin te@o thatthe! ; in the very vature of man.

Théy are absolutely universal, for there is no disesse safe for infants and a@ute. They aim to ac com plish thiee things’: first;to purify the blood; second, te eleanse. and regulate the stomach and liver and purge away the ashes of the sys tem and diseased matters of the body. By pur- ging wi.b these Pills constantly, a new body can be built up from freeh, healthy food in a few months, In this way, gout and rheuma- tism, ulcers and fever sores can be eradicated in a few weeks. The worst cases of dyspepsia and costiveness can be cured by taking one or two pills eyéry night for a month. In cares of twenty years’ standing, gentlemen have been cured by taking one pill a night for a year. Brandreth’s Pills give t@ the" human body, no matter how worn or decayed, the recuperative powers of youth. In their action, they imitate the rapid changes of the youthful body. We all with to die of old age, A hundred years is the natural limit of life, which can oply be reached by purging and purification; In general debility, nervous tremor, and mental depression Brandreth’s Pills havea marvelons effect.

The Pills are composed of rare balsama, without the ad- mixture of a grain of any mineral whatever, or of any other deleterious substance, They operate directly, powerfully, and beneficially upon the whole mass of blood ; nor can we question the fact when we see indigestion cured, liver com. plaints arrested, the oppressed Inngs brought into healthful play, and every physical func— tion renewed and strengthened by their agency.

More than this, it is pretty, and = nn- less told to the contrary anyoue would imagine it made in the New England mills, instead of in the un- pretentious little fuctory in Gaston county.

Few farmers know the size of their fields or how many acres they contain. A field of the writer’s, befere it came into his possession, had been plowed and reaped by cuntract for fifteen acres. bn measuring it, it was found {tocontain-but- twelve acres. It is desizable, in fact indispensible for good work, ¢hat a farmer sliould know how many @eres each field contains, for Otherwite h@ cann apportion seed ‘Or mantire ior it, wih catthe tel how much time it should require to be plowed.. A measuring cord should be part of the furniture on every farm. To make one procure sixty- seven feet of strong rope, one inch around ; make a loop or fastea a ring or a bar at each end, and make these precisely sixty-six feet apart. This is four rods. Then tie a piece of red rag iw theeentre, Ove acre pf groyn will be a piece four of the Gords long’ and two and one-half wide, equal to sixteen by ten rods, making 160 square rods to one acre. The advan- tage of the riuvg or loop is that one person can measure alone by driving astake in the grownd to hold the rope while he stretches it out. The rope should be soaked in tar and dried which will prevent it from shrinking when wet.—N. C. Farmer. a The Charlotte Home and Demoerat says; Sumuel ‘effreys, a successful planter of Union County, has invent- ed two labor-saving agricultural im- plements which promise to revolu- tionize old-fashioned methods of farm- ing. One of these machines is a cot- ton hoe, with which Mr. Jeffreys says he will be able. to hoe twenty-five acres of cotton aday. It is drawn by one+horse or mule, The other machine a cotton scraper, whieh works six ploughs and is pulled by one mule; in fact one mule can l two machines.. With this ine Mr. Jeffreys claims that he can work over one hundred and twenty acres of ground in ten days. These state- ments seem incredible, but Mr. Jeff- reys says he can prove by practical demonstration that his inventions will ‘do all that he claims, and what’ may be vers, vetches, beans, he rietors tame }vipiws, and tucerne or alfalfa.

Manure is put on the soil to enrich it; this is because manure coutains plaut food ; therefore it is a complete manure, Superphosphates, potash salts, nitrate of soda, etc., are special manures, and contain only a part of the essential food elements, Crops require food, and if the svil is not already rich enough it should be fed, because it does uet pay to grow a starved crop. > es Tue Oyster—In a communica- tion to the Philadelphia Medical and Surgical Journal, Dr. Charles L. Da- ua, of New York, points to some pre valent errors concerning oysters. It has has been suid that the oyster, on account of its hepatic diastase, has the power of digesting itself. In a series of experiments, Dr, Dana has given the mollusk some excellent opportu- nities of duing so, but it declines to digest even its own liver, As to the superior digestibility of raw oysters over cooked, it was found that when boiled for a short time, or roasted in the shell, they were nearly if not quite as rapidly dissolved as the raw. Cooking, in fact, loosened the muscu- lar fibrils, thus allowing the peptic juice to penetrate. eee Water For Swine.—There are many farmers who think it unneces- sary to give a drink of water to a pig but who consider the slop that it re- ceives as ample for its needs, or that when @ pig is fattening dry food only is needed and that water makes soft rk. There are many more who are ardly so ignorant as this, yet act precisely as though they were, and neglect to provide any water for their st@ek but what they can procure from pond holes or sloughs. The conse- quence is disease and death. Pure water is indispensible to the health of all kinds of stock, —--- ~-—Pb-=~-——s— Hoes aRE Troumps.—Hogs are trumps and are likely to be for years toceme.

We know almost nothing of our coal fields except what is shown by the outcrops and when we compare these surface indications with the fact stated by | Page in his economic Geology, that j the average thickness of seams which | are worked in Great Britain is from | six to nine feet, we have every reason to put a very high estimate upon our own coal resources—to conclude that they would suffice for the support of manufactures of national importance Yet what these resources actually are | we are profoundly ignorant. * * *; The process of boring in Prof. Olm-! sted’s day was slow and costly. Mod- ern inventive genius is in no art more conspicuous than in this. The Beau- mont Diamond Drill may be regard- ed as having reduced toa minimum both time and cost in boring opera- tions. It enables us ww form a per- fectly accurate judgment of the suc- cessive strata through which it passes since it brings up a “core,” as it is styled of each. In no way could a few thonsand be so beneficially em- ployed by the board as in this work | carried on under the superintendeuce | of the Geologist. It cannot be doubt—| ed that if the existence of coal in what is called wotkable quantities shall be demonstrated, the discovery woald be fullowed by a great influx of capital and population—that our State would speedily become the seat of great iron and other iudustries. ~~ - -_—__ — A word forthe Mole. Mr. Webber, one of the savans of Zurich, Switzerland, recently exam- ined the stomachs of a number. of moles caught in different localities, but failed to discover therein the slightest vestige of plants or roois ; but on the Gontrary, they were filled with the remains of earth worms, He shut up several of these animals ina box containing earth and sod with growing grass, and a small case of grubs and earthworm. In nine days two moles devoured 341 white worms, 193 earthworms, 25 caterpil- lars and a dead mouse. Fed with a mixed diet of raw meat and vegeta- bles, the moles ate the meat, but did not touch the plants; and when vegetables exclusively were dealt out to them, in twenty-four hours both died of starvation. We cannot conceive what better evidence is needed of the character and habits of the mole. When lawns we may be sure that the irfurious white worm, which is very damaging to the sod, greatly abounds there, and the mole is the best ageut to exter- winate it, ee’ Our Sprisa Proverss.—“ When April blows bis horn, ’tis good for both hay and corn.” So runs the old proverb. By many the back ward- ness of the season is regarded unfa- vorably, but it is a fact that the most productive years are usually those in which the spring is cold. The fear of frost is much less among fruit rowers at the present time than it would be had March and April been warm months, There is a saying that “as many frostises in May” are to be expected as there are “mistises iu March,” and as Mas both dry and cold, the proverb intlicates that no frost is to be feared in May this year. There is reason to regard the pros- for any greatcrop as unfavora- ble. The outlook fur fruit is espe- cially good, and as to crop p generally, the discomfort of this chil- ly weather may be somewhat allevia- ted by faith in the proverb. “A cold April the barn wiil fill.” ——_—_~-~- A thoaghtful uncle: Rich uncle to his physician—“So you think there is hope for me?” “Not only that, but I can assure you that you are saved.” “Very well, I wish you would inform my nephew; but break the news gent- ly to him.”—Fliegende Blatter. other descriptions, the former must give way. A widow is entitled to dower only in an estate of inheritance, of which the husband hada seizin in law or a:. seizin in deed, at anytime during the covertue: and therefore she is} not dowable of a reversion ur remain- der expectant upon an estate of free- hold. ——_ ——_-->>-_—- — Just Like ’Em. Two ladies who were bound some- where in company yesterday entered a Woodward avenue car together,and no sooner seated than both made a dive for their purses. “Oli, let me pay !” pleaded one. “Oh, I could’t think of it!” “Oh, do now; I have just the change.” “Oh, but I have tickets.” “Yes, but you paid the last time.

I do declare?” gasped the first. “Strangest thing I ever saw!” add- ed the second. “Vil pay for both,” observed a man on the seat opposite, and he marched up, fumbled through his pockets and held ont a battered quarter to the driver. The latter would not take it, gnd the man marched out and slid off the platform in the most sulemu manner, and at the next crossing the ladies said they had ta- ken the wrong car, rang the bell and got off.—M. Quad. oo It is now not far from time for Re- publican and assistant Republican papers to spring up to” poison the minds of the people. The State will be flooded, next year, with this class of literature, which will be paid for and sent out by the Republican managers. It is always in season to warn the public against a hireling press. A corrupt pross, one which expresses bought opinions, one which is paid to preach certain doctrines, is an unquallified curse. The people should beware especially of mush- room growths, corrupt and irrespon- sible. No paper that speaks any viher than what are known to be its honest convictions is worthy the con- fidence of any honest man. A paper that is not dependent upon the people but can exist with ur without their patronage is altogether untrustworthy. —Landmark. —---~—-—>-- - A “fashion” item says: “The lo- zenge shape is the most fashionable for pills, which should be coated with silver, and look very inviting.” This appears tobe a new departure in fashion intelligence, and next it will be in order to describe whether the new shape in porous plasters is octa- gon or oblong, and if they are trim- med with gimp braid or guipure lace, and we may be told that the most fashionable tints in castor oil are terra-cotta and fawn color, and liver pads are cut in the form of a heart, with scallaped edges and lined with ciel-blue satin.— Norristown Herald. had “So you has done lef de Joneses !” remarked Matilda Snowball to Eliza Pinkston, both colored, as they met on Austin avenue. “You bet I leffed ’em.

Burgess, who killed R. M. Douley last November, was shot and killed yesterday by W. R. Cur- tis, one of the largest stock owners in Texas. At the postoffice during the de- livery of the mail, Burgess, it is stated, shoved Curtis roughly aside; hot words passed when Burgess tried to shoor, but ; Curtis was quicker wud shot Burgess, who | turned and staggered towards the door, ' Curtis still firing on him. Burgess took , only a few steps and fell dead only two ' feet from where he had killed Donley. Two men were accidentally wounded bat it is thought not seriously. Curtis at once surrendered to the authorities and requested an immediato trial. He sent word from the jail te the wounded men that he would pay all their expenses fur time lest and if permanently injured would fully provide for them. Bargess iutended to kill Curtis at the shooting of Donley and is alleged to have threatened Curtis’ life on several occasions.

Barley is driving oats from many of the best farms in Vermont, being a first class grain to sow with grass seed, and yielding thirty to fifty bushels per acre, worth more ‘per bushel than corn for pork, beef, milk or butter. The day of feeding large quanti- ties of corn to an animale for a score or more of months is past, and thrifty young steers off from good pastures, with a few weeks finishing off with corn, are sufficient to furnish the beef of the future. Where the bark has been gnawed or scraped off froma tree the new bark may be made to grow again by | covering the denuded place with clay. It has been made to grow in this way withont leaving a sear even. One of the important points in planting seeds is to press the soil very firmly upon the seeds, In set-) ting young plants the same thing obenid be remembered.

Editor of the Salisbury Watchman : The mining outlook ib this county is very flattering indeed, the most promi- nent mine in the county is the Phosix, which is worked under ap act of Incorpo- ration asthe Phenix Gold Company— although an Incorporated company there is not ene share of stock forsale, its owners have the most implicit confidence in their property as being a permanent and profitable investarént, based on the actual monthly returns of billion receiv- ed by them from fhe miné: this property of 6264 acres is owned by thrée individu- als ouly, who ate perfectly satisfied to own and hold thé stock within them- selves and feceive the bevefits derived from its prodactiens. This company adopted at its com- mencement of operations the Mears cblo- rination process, which they have con- tinued to ase with much success; this process is being adopted in different parts of the United States, and bids fair to be- come in general use in the treatment of the auriferous sulphurets, the accuracy and cheapness by which ores can be treated by this method is attracting the attention of those who are engaged in gold mining, not only in the United States but other parts of the world. It is a well known fact with those conversant with gold mining that by the best known mechanical method of treating ores by amalugamation, that a loss is sustained from various causes of from 25 per cent. tu 40 per cent. from the assay value of the ores; to secure those losses it is a state of lunacy.

WHO. | SO | Mr. Editor : | Iu last week's Exraminer appears an editorial paragraph which asserts that your correspondent reduced the town debt of 1878 from $5,000 to about $2,500. This is vot so! The figures given to the public inthe Watchman of May 17th, were, as stated, taken from the City re- cords and are correct, and those given in a previous article made no réference to a debt of $5,000; neither was any such sum 2s 82,500 mentioned in my commu- nication of the 17h. ravy o ‘er date. So it is plain that, unless the Examiner learns to make more accurate statements than those it has endeavored to manufac- ture in condemnation of your correspon- dent, it will display more wisdom in lay- ing aside mach of its assumed knowledge, and try to imbibe, at leastZsome of the priuciples of truth. Why the delay in giving the public the promised light op the management ef the town govern- meut, &c.? Why this dodging behind a brassy conceit to screen sach dazzling effroutery ?

Ee More Tornavots. — Indiannapolis, May 29.—Abont six e’clock last evening a cyclone struck the town ef. Edinburg and following it a heavy raiu fell. The storm lasted 10 minntes and raged with great violence. The spire of the Metho- dist church was blown down upon the roof of the parsonage, crushing through it to the ground. South of the town a grove of timber belonging to George Cattsinger, was @emeélished,~and four miles farther South the cyclone struck the farm B. J. Denning, wrecking the barn, killing Mr. Denning's sen, Frank, and injuring a farm hand. ~ TERREBAUTE, InD., May 29.—A double tornado swept by Clay City at 5 o’clock yesterday afterneen, the extremities be- ing a mile apart. Clay City, which was in the centre estaped with slight dam- ages, but at Neal’s Mill on one side a house was swept out of existence, six persons killed, a bridge destroyed, and general destruction prevailed. On the other side in a little settlement five per- sons were killed, houses were blown away and one child was blown away aud has not yet been found. Twelve persons were injured besides those killed. Trees have been blown down over a wide area. 0 ES What those events are which are to play such av important part in the world’s affairs as to become of historical moment it is often difficult to determine. It is for time to develop results and small circum- stances may become the fonudation of great events. We think it not unlikely, however that there has been some little history made of late. The intense hor- basis—a traditionary hostility founded en not merely the fact of repeated conquests and continued oppression -but also a difference of religion. The attachment of Ireland to the Pa- paey has been firm and unwavering daring a!l the vicissitudes that have marred the fortuve of that unhappy isle —and indeed much of the oppresion which madé the iron enter into the soul ef the Irishman had its origin iu this circumstance. The clashing of religious beliefs has contribu- ted largely to the want of harmeny be- tween the yeople of the two Islands. Tu Ireland the Pope was all in all. ‘To-day however, we find the Papacy at points with those who hoist the ensign “Ireland for the Irish.” It is a remarkable event. Never before has Rome been wentioned by those lips but with reverence—yet now Rome is felt to be en the side of the op- pressor, avd a breech is made antil now unknown in all the centuries. It may be that the matter will bave no great signifi- cance ; but it is not improbable that like the scratch upon the bark of the young ouk, time will only serve to make the sear more ugly and more observable. Possibly the influence of Rome over the Irish mind may become rmouch weakened by this di vergence of sentiment, and great histori- en] results may spring from so slight a cause. — News- Observer. _—_ Wrat Hurt Hiu.—The yeung man Webb, who ‘borrewed” Sheriff young’s herse some days ago and was brought back and jailed, endeavored to escape Wednesday night through the same hole made by the recently eseaping prisoners and by the same method.

Ten years ago Seleucus Garfie'de left Congress and became a profess- ional gambler; recevtly he died iu u little room over a cigar shop in Wash- ington, The story of Gartielde’s life, says‘a Washington letter, is that of a man who surrendered absolutely to the temptatiuns uf Washington. He was born sixty-o1e years ago iu Ver- mont, went to Kentu ky when he was a boy, was graduated trom Augusta‘ college'in that State, and began active lifeas a lawyer. When he was thirty yeurs old he was a member of the Keutucky legisiature, and a few years later was commissioned to codify the laws of the State. In 1860 he was receiver of public moneys fur Wash- ington Territory, and in 1869, after after serving three years as surveyor- general, he came tu Congress as dele- gate. He was here four years, and when his congressional career was over he was a moral wreck. He had lost his ambition, and was us disso- lutea gambler as lived in the Dis- trict of Columbia. Cards had come to be the passion of his life. It is said that he left -Kentucky and wandered off into Washingtou Territory, because he saw his doom if be remained among the genial poker players of his adopted State. He fought against what be feared would become his ruling passion, even to the extent of giving up what prom- ised to be an exceptionally vrigit future, but his surroundings in Wash- ington finally overcame him com- pletely. His fellow Congressmen ruined him, he lived for the rest of bis days on the vices of public men. No life in Washington was lower than his. The men and women who were his companions. were of the lowest stratum. For years the man who had once promised to be one of the clever- est public men of Kentucky had not a single intimate associate who did not belong to the dangerous element of society. He was always, however, a leader among tie people with whom he liyed.

My wife for many years was confined to her bed suffering from spinal disease. After spend, ing a thousand dollars in vain effort to get cured, she applied three ALLCocK’s PLas— TERS to the spinal column, one above the other. Ina few days all pain left her. and in the course of two months she com- pletely recovered her health. At first she could hardly walk across the room; cach day she walked a little further, and now she 1s able to walk five miles without fa- tigne. She still occasionally applies the plasters to her back, but she has been per- fectly well for upward of a year, LEWIS L. HAMMEL.

It should be frequently dusted with a soft duster; if anything more is needed, a cloth wet in warm water, with a little ammonia or borax dis- solved in it, will answer the purpose. In cleaning white paint, put the soap into the water, not on the flannel used to wash it.

This was as unusual as it prayed apon one occasion for the news- paper men at large, but he probably had no example and has had but few imita- tors.

F. Baird, Commissioner of Fish and Fisheries, Washington City, D. C., or to S&S. G. Worth, Fish Commissiouer, Raleigh, N. C., and say that you have a fish pond, und wish them to send you a supply of German carp. Ina few days you will reeeive a blank form, which you wilkhave to fill up, stating name of applicant, size and location of pond, &e: After filling up the blank you will forward it, to your member of Congress, or to Hon. 7. B. Vance, or some other United States Senator, cuclosing a small note witha postage stamp, reqnestivg him to endorse the application, and send it to Prof 8, F. Baird, Washington City, D.C. lu a few days you will get a postal from Professor Baird notifying you that your application has been p!uced on file, and that the fish will be sent as aoou as a supply is avail- able. Having recived this notice, noth- ing more remains but for you to wait pa- tiently until the fish are shipped iu the fall, during the months of November or December, which will surely be. The goverument sends ouly 20 carp to one upplicant, makes no charge at all for them, the applicant having nothing to pay, except about 25 ceuts expressage, avd 20 cents for the tiu bucket they come in—and you keep that. This is the whole modus operandi of obtaining carp, and if strictly fulluwed there will be no trouble about it. Sometimes persons who have built ponds, get impatient at waiting on the government to send the carp in the fall, and write to me, to ask whether [still advise them to wait for the earp, or whether I would advise them to stoek | their ponds with trout, suckers,perch and | other native fish, and to all such I would say most emphatically, wait for the carp, even if you to wait to years. Why dol say this ? Because Ihave tried tried. They never amount to anything | Whilst on the other hand, on the 8th ot Dec. 180], | pat 20 carp jv one of my ponds, which were at that time, about three inches long. At this date, Juue Ist, 1883, they being not quite two years old, will measure over twenty inches in length, eight iuches in width, and will weigh fron) six to eight pounds cachs. In anoth- er pond I have 80 that were puf. there in January last. They were then ouly one and a half inches long. Atthis date, they are from 6 to 7 inches long, and are the most beautifnl fish I ever saw; the scales being of a rich, golden color, We have never tasted a carp, but in- tefid to sample one as soon as the spawn- ing season is over. ‘They are said to be, by those who have eaten them, an extra tine table fish —fully equal to the shad. They are very prolific, and are of very rapid growth, and will, in a few years, attain a weight of 13, 25 and even 40 Ibs. They will eat anything whieh a pig will eat, such as cabbage, beass, lettuce, mel- ous, pumpkins, &e, and it is said a good plan ig to build the pen where bogs are to be fattened very vear the pond, so that all refuse matter will wash into the pond. A small poud, well stocked with these valuable fish, will soon furnish au ample supply for family consumption, aud a surplas for market. We recently saw it stated in some pa- per, that there are now, in this State, 1500 ponds atucked with this fish, and ‘still the demand increases for them every year. We believe the day is not far distant, when they will be the commen fish of all Southern latitudes being peculiarly adapt- ed to such loealities. We advise all who have an idea of en- gaging in fish cultare to avoid all native tish, such as trout, perch, suekers, &c., for as surely as you introduce them, you will ineet with disappointment, as we have dove; and, as we have said before, we have had some sad experience in that direction, having speut some ten years in trying to cultivate native tish, and all our efforts proving futile aud barren of i satisfactery results, never having had uny success until we got theeqyp. .

Brandreth’s Pills have stood the test of forty- five years of use by the ‘American people. They are entirely Vegetable, They are absolutely universal, for there is no disease they will not cure, iftakenintime. They are safe for-infants-and adatts. They aim to ac- complish three things: first, to purify the blood; second, to cleanse and regulate the stomach and bowels; third, to stimulate the kidneys and liver and purge away theashes of the sys- tem and diseased matters of the body.»By pur- ging wich these Pills constantly, a new body can be built up from fresh, healthy food in. a few months. In this way, goutand rheuma- lism, ulcers and fever sores c.n be eradicated in a few weeks. The worst cases of dyspepsia and costiveness can be cured by taking one or two pills eyery night fora month. In cases of twenty years’ standing, gentlemen have been cured by taking one pill a night for a year. Brandreth’s Pills give to the human body, no matter how worn or decayed, the recuperative powers of youth. In their action, they imitate the rapid changes of the youthful body. We all wirh to die of old age, A hundred years is the natural limit of life, which ean only be reached by purging and - purification. In general debility, nervous tremor, and mental depression Brandreth’s Pilis have a marvelous effect. They have won the confi- dence of millions in all parts of the civilized world, Constitutions shaken by long residence in unwholesome climates,or by sedentary hab- its, are wonderfully renovated by a course of this extraordinary medicine, which, powerful as is its action on the whole system, is perfect- ly harmless to the tenderest frame. The Pills ure composed of rare balsams, withont the ad- mizture of a grain of any mineral whaterer, or of any other deleterious substance, They operate directly, powerfully, and beneficially upon the whole mass of bleod ; nor can we question the fact when we see indigestion cured, liver come plaints arrested, the oppressed lungs’ brought into healthfnl play, and every physical func- tionrenewed and strengtheued by their agency.

It would be ve- ry upproper, you know.’ | Lysander promised, and went out to harness the mare, as Miss Cathie- ‘rine had decided to drive over at | once, and bring Miss Jones back with | | her. She smiled grimly as her brother strode away, whistling. ‘The shortest cut ain’t always the nearest road home,’ she said, compla- cently. ‘And there’s more ways of | killing a cat than feeding it to death | with beefsteak. ‘Ihere’s Hulda Rush | is worth a dozen of that girl!

I like a woman that can bustle around and see to things, even if she don’t have to do ’om herself—one that can make a pat uf butter, or pick a goose, or spina hank of yarn, if need be. And I like to see A woman look neat,’ he went on, as he curried the dappled mare and rubbed her down with a wisp of hay. ‘And Olympia always looks as neat as a new pin when | call there. Anyhow, I do hope she'll come!’ he added, anxiously. Of course Olympia would go! And she ran quickly up stairs to pack up her clothes, ‘It’s a mighty good chance for me,’ she thought, as she brushed her curls before the little looking-glass ; ‘and I’ll improve it too! But I’ll not help with the house-work long,’ she added. ‘Wait till I get to be mistress up there, and see who'll house- work then !’ Lysander’s heart gave a jump as the wagoy hove in sight with its two ocenpants, and visions of the blissful weeks to come danced through his mind. He was so embarrassed and overcome with delight at the coquet- ish smile Olympia bestowed on him that he hardly had presence of mind enough to let down the bars for them to pass through. ‘Now, Olympia,’ bustled Mis~ Cath- erine, when they had laid off their hats and shawls, ‘it’s time we begun dinner. Lysander must have it at 12 o’clock, precisely, or he thinks he’s killed. There’s a couple of pullets in the coop, out in the chip-yard,’ she added, tying a clean check-apron around her waist. ‘You may wring their necks, and git ’em ready for roasting, while I start up a fire in the cook-stove.’ Olympia looked at her pink calico dress, with its flounces and ruffles and wondered if Miss Catherine would of- fer her a check apron, too. But Miss Catherine did no sach thing, and Olympia wrung the chickens’ necks and prepared them for the oven, with rather a cross look shadowing her pretty face. ‘Got ’em in the oven?’ asked Miss Catherine, sharply. “Then you can mix up a batch of biscuits while I make the johuny-cake. Lysander al ways innst have two kinds of bread for dinner, or he can’t eat,’ she ex- plained. ‘Humph! thought Olympia. ‘He wou’t get two kinds of bread for din- ver when [I’m mistress here, I can tell him!’ But she turned to the bre. d-tray without a word. By the time the biscuits were in the oven the waist and front breadths of usual and when it was finally dished and proved to be underdone and the chickens ruasted te a crisp. ‘Had bad luck with your biscuits, didn’t you, Catherine ? said her bro- ther, making a wry face at the yellow streak of saleratas he found én beak ing opening one of thé leaden Jumps; bat Miss Catherive smiled leniently. ‘Olympia had bad luck with biscuits,’ she said: ‘but I believe my bread is as good as usual,’ and she passed hiw a square of light, golden- colored corn-bread more tempting than pound-cake. Lysander left his biscuit untasted, but cast a glance of compassion at Olympia. neticing a sullen look on Miss Jones curls and soiled, untidy dress. ‘Have some cold mutton, Lysander,’ said his sister, ‘if you can’t eat any o the chicken. Olympia will learn how to cvok after awhile.’ | So it was Olympia who burned the | chickens ! Lysander finished his dinner in si-' lence, though he still made excuses | for all shortcomings. | Olympia changed her soiled dress | befure tea-time, and was beaming with smiles wheu Lysander took his’ seat at the table. But the tea had a wishy- | jwashy tuste, the butter-dish was smeared and untidy, and the apple- , sauce was insipid and flavorless, The | biscuits were light and puffy this itime, fur Miss Catherine bad made | them herself. | Lysander had a good disposition, ' but unpalatable food will disorder the , best regulated liver and upset the | temper of an angel, and Miss Cathe- | But that’s just like a wo- | rine soon discovered a fresh wrinkle: ‘over her brother’s nose. Oue morning, Lysander strode into | the kitchen, where his sister~vas mix- | ‘ing light bread—for she could not trust it to Olympia, who had already spoiled two batches, which had to be thrown to the pigs. ‘Catherine,’ whispered Lysander, hurriedly, ‘the minister’s fulks are coming up the lane! Of conrse they’ll spend the day, and do, pray, Cathe- rine, cook the dinner yourself! Don’t let us be disgraced in their eyes!’ Miss Catherine saw her opportuni- ty and seized it. ‘Cook the dinner myself! Dear me, Lysander, how can 1% she asked. ‘We must have turkey, of course, and mashed potatoes, aud pumpkin pies, and a steamed batter-pudding with lemon-sauce, and cabbage-salad ! Be- sides, who will entertain the visitors while I’m in the kitchen ? Olympia? ‘Olympia! Pshaw! She can’t do anything but giggle!’ growled Ly- sander, savagely, much to his sister’s amusement. ‘I'll tell what, Lysander,’ said Miss Catherine, reflectively, ‘I must have some help, and if you’ll just saddle the mare and Jead her around for Huldah Rush, la sure she'll come.’ And Lysander hastened to do his sister’s bidding. Dinner was on the table at precise- ly twelve o’glock, and the Rev. Mr. Shepherd and his family testified to the excellence of the richly-b:owned turkey, juicy and unctious, the mash- ed potatoes and gravy, the golden- hued pies, and yellow batter pudding with its rich suuce—to say nothing of light, flaky rolls and fresh butter. And when, after dinner, Lysander stepped into the diving-room for a pitcher of water, he could not help observing the contrast between Hul- dah’s satin-smooth braids and snowy neck-ruffie, and Olympia’s tawny rib- bons and biowzy hair. ‘Olympia,’ said Miss Catherine, a couple of weeks later, as she took a folded paper from the bureau drawer, ‘here’s a present I’ve got fur you —a new dress! It’s basket cloth. And there’s some blue trimmings and silk buttons for you. And—and, Olympia, I shan’t need you any longer, for my brother is going to be married to-mor- row to Miss Hulda Rash, and she’s a powerful good housekeeper you know. ‘Just what I thought,’ said Mrs, Jones, when her daughter appeared with her bundle of clothes. ‘You allus was lazy and slovenly, au’ allus will be, Treckon.” . ‘I’m sorry I went there now,’ grumbled Olympia. ‘It’s all that plagued old maid’s fault, I know :’ And it was Miss Catheriue’s man- agement that saved her brother from that snare; but he never suspected it of course.— Helen W.

An old horseman says: “If you want to buy a horse, don’t believe your own brother. Take no man’s word for it. Your eye is your market. Don’t you buy a hor-e in harness. Un- hitch him and take everything off but his halter, and lead him around, If he has acorn or is stiff, or has any other failing, you can see it. Let him go by himself a ways, and if he staves right into anything you know he is blind. No matter how clear and bright his eycs are he can’t see any more than a bat. Back him too. Some horses show their weakness at tricks in that way when they don’t in any other. But, be as smart as you can yo'll get caught sometimes. Even an expert gets stuck. A horse may look ever so nice, and go a great peace, and yet have fits. There isn’t # man could tell it till something happens. Or he may have a weak back. Give him the whip and off he goes fur a mile or two, then all of a sudden, he stops in the road.

With us some ore is imported clear across the ocean, while the great bulk of the ore used at Pitte- burg, we believe, is hauled from the lake region at a cost of ten or twelve dollars per ton. Our high tariff and consequent high prices have permitted ores to be hauled immense distances, and go it has come about that vast furnaces have been erected at points without regard to the propriety of their location in an economi- eal point of view. As long as there wasa great margin for profit these disad vauta- ges of position were not so apparent. But now that the demand for iron had fallen off, and the price has settled on a reason- able basis, the misplaced furnaces and manufactories have been forced to sus- pend, while those that are better ‘located can still keep in operation. —— New York has its riches aud pleasures —it has also suffering and anguish.

Since then we find ig the’ New York World let- ters from Senatar Baj ard d ex-Ser tor McDonald, of Indiana, maitily dév to the tariff question, Which are given below: Mr. Bayard writes from Wilmiugton, Del., under dato of May 234, aa follows ; “The more buportiat the questing the greater the ‘nece: -fty fn dea witht gravely and wort! ly, and wnydsid gike tinesse or the appe. wauce of finesse ar tricky in dealing with such on dssue 28a tariff for revenue or a tariff for protection.o certain classes of our citizens Will weaken the party resorting to it.” Quite independent of clic economy to the:treas- ury aud ipeidental benefit to American producers and manafactarers which is to be affected by a higher or lower tate of taxation, is the ore profound questivn of political right and power to fay any public burden apen the entire, peuple for the benetit, profit or ‘protection’ af pri- vate individuals, If this claim be adwit- ted as one of right, then privileged classes do exist in this country; aud, although titles may not be allowed by the consti- tution, yet all the adyantages and _privi- leges of rank will be obtained without the name. “1 know of no position more impregua- ble, aud apon which it is more important for the Demveratic party to form its lines, than that public property cannot be taken for private use uuder any pretext. The constitution of the Uuized of every one of the States so united —pro- vides fur the taking of private property for public use only upon the rendition of “just compensation” to the owner—but nowhere in this country, and nowhere where free iustitutious have recognition, can the sovereigy power take public pro- perty for private use, or the private pro- perty of A to be bestowed upon B, with or without compensation. The ouly ground upon which any individual can be deprived of his property iato benefit the community, and whenever such an exi- gency arises, be must (under our guarap- tees) be first justly compensated. The form of the exaction is iomaterial—as much so as the place—and a tax eollected in the interior, or ut a mau’s residence, or at the seaport of eutry aud under a tarilt law—an excise or a direct tax liw—it is all the same, and to be’ justified must be in the name and for the use of the gov- ernment of the United States, “With this principal euce laid down, the rate of taxation will be easily meas- ured by the public cxigeucies, and sacha spectacle as was witnessed at the last ses- sion of Cougress—of a handful of men representing private iuteresta and con- trolling and moulding public laws of tax- ation to suit those interests—will never again be tolurated by hovest public seu- timent. “The excise system ean be so drranged, r Tae Je Chillicothe, Mo., on the “Titty, UMrgored houses, destroyed 4 brick Med one away and injured others, -- <=> A tooth pick factory in Maine is doing a good business—making a fortune.

Disastrous result of trying to cross the track ahead of the Fast Mail—A_ driver and tico horses dashed to Destruction. Passengers who arrived in the city Sun- day morning brought news of a terrible aceident that oceurred ov the Virginia Midland road, by which a colored man and two horses were killed by the Char- lotte bound train. The accident occurr- ed at a point where the railroad makes an abrupt turn around a hill and thro’ a deep cut, and at the moment the horses step- ped on the track the train was not twenty - five yards distant. The colored man was driviog three horses, and the country road crosses the track in such a manner us to bring all three of: the horses on the rails before the wagon wheels struck them. Vhe saddle horse on which the driver was seated, and the lead horse, wero struck simultaneously by the en- gine. The moment the engineer saw the horses on the track he realized the dan- ger. There were ten coaches in his train und a hgndred or more lives were in per- il. Had be attempted to check the speed of the train and strack the horses with a force not sufficient to throw them from the track» a terrible wreck would have resulted. But quick as thought, the en- gigeer pulled the throttle wide open avd the train leaped forward like a flash, and hurled the horses and driver into the air, Me train literaly ran throngh a shower of blood and desh. ‘The saddle horse was torn all to fragmentspvarious parts of his , and thirty yards from the spot where the accident eecurred, The lead horse was knocked forty feet and killed dead as a door nail, while the horse that was next the saddle horse was thrown down an embankment byt got np and wajked off anhart.

We may be some time reaching a solation of the question, but as the publie mind comes to be evlightened it will net be satisfied with any tariff that has not for its leading purpose the raising of rev- enue for the government, nor with the details of any tariff law in which the da- ties laid upou foreign merehaudise shall be above the revenue point.’ can Ivegiater, does not approve altogether of Mr Bayard’s utterances, and complains that he is not sufficiently explicit iu stat- ovly and a tariff which provides for inci- deutal protection. As stated by Mr. Mor- rison and iu effect by Senator Butler, the difference is more of policy than of creed Mr. —though Morrison fact that “There is sach a division of opinion among Democrats as requires toleration on the tariff question ; but those unwilling to repeal war rates, which were added to & protective tariff, are entitled to no len- jeney. “Those who advocate incidcutal pro- tection, some protection or auy qualitied »rotection, probably mean vue wore than Is meant by a tariff only for revenue, for w tariff laid for revenne only will afford some advantages to our manufacturers.” Mr. MeDonald well states the senti- went which contrels the majority of Democrats and a growing class of their political qpponents when he says that “the public mind will net be satisfied recognizes the Jaw iv whieh the duties Jaid on foreign point.” The question of taxation is the most difficult connected with goveiumenut; put whilea perfect determi- | the Pemoeratic party will wisely forma- cd man Was put on the train and carried | late a creed which the party may not only | Where it was turned | coutentedly embrace but by which it will ; 1884, or this notice will be plead in bar of | recover power.

(The handiwork of Me, J. A. Wreg,) Soon the happy songsters appeared leading their Queen, who is placed on the throne and crowned, As they finish their chorus, the Queen mourns the loss of the twin sister, which oceurred on a like occasion three years previous. She isled away to be congoled while a few remain and tell the cause of ber sadness, how the gipsies had taken away her twin sister, and it is so dramatically told as to sug- gest to the minds of the young listeners the possivility of another sach visitation by the gipsies—and half frightened by their own story they scamper off to join their companions. Now the style of wusic changes and the gandy dress and minstrel song of the strolling gipexy band takes their placee. This scene was very bright and the solos and choruses were gems of the kind. During their brief stay, the “old woman” or ‘fortune teller” explains why ‘*Florence” (the twio sister) has been secretly condacted to the next camp. With a joyous chorns they break camp and moved on, ‘“Florenee Stanly” now steals into the grove, finds the May Queen’s throne, and soon perceives the May-day party coming. She tests their friendship—is taken into their party; there is mutaal recognition between the sistere, and the reeovered twin sister is placed on the thfone; with “Vietcria!” a splendid chorus, the curtain falls. Sach in brief is the story of the operetta. The cast was as follows: Mab Stanly (May |Queen) Miss Addie White; Florence Stanly (Twin Sister) Mias Hattie Bringle; Preciosa—a Gipsy Singer—Miss Joseph- ine Baker ; Matds of honor, interlocutors and chorus singers, embracing the whole of Mrs. Neaves’ pupils, Miss Addie White did herself great credit io her natural reudition of the character assigned her, while Miss Brin- gle’s sweet, soft voice and fine acting made her the chief attraction of the latter part of the performance. Miss Josephine Baker was loudly ap- plauded in her gipsy songs.

Saturday night last is likely to be memorable as a time of deluge with the in- habitants of this neighborhood.

As might be expect- | 0d the effects of such a storm were disas- trous to gruwing crops of all kinds, and to the lands. he soil of all rolling lands not protected by grass roots or something else, was swept away, and the plants either carried off or left hanging by roots allexposed.

Editor Watchman: Atter a somewhat protracted drought, which bad much retarded the growth of all growing crops, we had, on the evening of Thursday the 7th inst., an excellent rain, which put the lands in good plowing ° order, reviving the crops, and enabling I our farmers to set oat their tobacco, cab- | | bage, potato and other plants, of which we have a tolerable abundance, excepting the former, which are rather scarce. I It was reserved for us to witness, on the night of Saturday the 9th, the most terrific rain storm it has ever been our lot to see. About av hour before sun- down we had a very respectable rain, which lasted until about nightfall. Soou after that, the lurid clouds seemed to con- centrate from the soath, and amidst deep- toned peels of thunder, and vivid flashes of lightning, such a rain fell as we hope never again to witness: It continued with unabated fury, for five or six hours, | ¢ causing many forebodings of what w ould be the resalt. Early iu the morning came the intelli- gence that the lower carp poud was bro- ken. We found nothing bat the bare channel left. It had been stocked with 30 carp, most of which were the genuine scale carp, and were about 7 inches long. All were swept out and lost, except one }i h v h 8 a c i per pond. Soon after daylight three live, four- pound carp which liad washed ont of the upper pond were picked up and returned. |: And then were found two others on dry land which were too far exhausted to live, and we ate them. ‘They were of very superior quality, rich, jucy and sweet, the flesh being more solid and less course trout, yet very wach resembling that fish in flavor. The loss of 80 carp was a| great calamity ; but we shall rebuild, and restock the pond, A very large amount of damage was nergedband the grass covered will sand and drift, so as to be ruined so far as the present crop is concerned. Fresh plowed Uplands badly washed and damaged, wheat and oats blown down, and badly tanuled, fences washed away; even the birds were drowved in the shade trees 1 | our yard, and many were picked up tn] the morning. The fish pond of the late Win. M. Kin- caid was also broken, and the cutire stock of mullets lost. Jacob N. Keply’s grist mill, With a large amount of wheat, corn aud flour was washed away aud euvtirely lost. Some two or three of the public bridges acroas Grant’s Creek are gone. Tu short, the damage done to this township is in- calculable. It is sickening tolook at our washed fields. W.R.

A similar disaster befell the owners of low grounds along the creek all the way down to the river. They were swept clean iu places, and damaged in all the ways it is possi- ble for such a flood todo. All the bridges from Macay’s mill down to the river were either swept away or ruined.

They are now known to be the great regeuerators of the nervous system and are invaluable in all cases of hysteria, Conroocook, N. H., March 3, 1880.

His temperature is low - ered aad he is liable when in such condi- tion to contract disease especially pneu- monia. He should be put to bed and kept warm inetead of being locked ap in a cold cell. Of conrse it does not seem just, according to the common way of looking at the matter, to treat a man well who has volantarily placed himself in such a state ; but when you think that life might be at stake, it does not seem so unreasonable. A drunken man is al- most invariably in a condition to con- tract pneumonia, the worst form of this disease being alchoholic pueumonia, and very few of these cases recover. The police should at least see that such a per- son is kept warm and not suffered to lie in the wet and cold.—Dr. A. B. Nichols. ~-——_ ——pe -— -—_—_— It seems pretty clear that $105,221 55 was wasted at the Norfolk navy yard in repairing the steam tag Pinta. Mr. Dez- -endorf charges that the money was ex- pended iu order to give employment at good wages to mcn who would vote the coalition ticket. The board of inyestiga- tion reported that the repairs made. the tug no more unseaworthy than she was before. That is to say, though the bosses expended over $105,000 of the people's mouey in their own interest, they gener- ously refrained from Coing the boat any harm.— News-Ob. InuiNois.--The statistics A Significant Story. A wealthy banker in one of our large cities, who is noted for his large subscriptions to charities, and for his kindly habits of private bevevolence, was called on by his pastor, one evening, and asked to go with him to the help of a man who had attemp- ted suicide, They found the man in a wretched house in an alley, not far from the lanker’s dwelling, The front room was a cobler’s shop, behind it, on a miserable bed, in the kitchen, lay the poor shgemaker with a gaping gash in his throat, while his wife and children were gathered about him. “We have been without food for days,” said the woman, “when he re- turned.” “It is not my husband’s fault. He is a hard working, sober man. But he could neither get work nor pay for that which he had done. To-day he went for the last time to collect a debt due him by a rich fami- ly, but the gentleman was not at home. My husband was weak from fasting, and seeing us starving drove him mad. So it ended that way,” turning tothe fainting, motionless figure on the bed. ~The banker having fed and warm- ed the family, hurried home, opened his desk, and took outa file of little bills. All his large debts were prompt- ly met, but he was apt to be careless about the aceounts of milk, bread, elc., because they were so petty. He found there a bill of Michael Goodlow’s for repairing children’s shoes, $10. Michael Goodlow was the suicide. It was the banker’s un- paid debt. which had brought these people to the verge of the grave, and driven this man to desperation, while ut the very time, the banker had given away thousands in charity. The cobler recovered, and will never want a friend while the banker lives, nor will a small) unpaid bill ever again be fouud on the banker’s table. No man has a right to be generous until his debts are paids; and the most eflicient use of money is not alone in alms-giving, but to: pay lib- erally and = promptly the people we employ.— Companion, Opossum Wanting in Australia. Piof. Hl. N. Moseley, in his \“Challenger Notes,” speaks of a visit he made to the domain of Sir Wil- | liane McArthur, at Camden Park, forty miles from Sidney, New South Wales, and) gives his experience in hunting the opossum. He says: The park is 10,000 acres in extent. Here I went out on several oceasions tu shoot opossums by moonlight. The opussums ure out feeding on the trees at night, or are outon the ground, and rush up the trees on the approach of danger, They are very ditticult to see by one not accustomed to the work,but by those who babitu- ally shoot them with astonishing ease. lu order to find the animals, one places himself sv as to get successive portions of the tree between his eye and the moonlight, and thas searching the tree over, at last be catehes sight of a dark mass crouchinz ona branch und usually sees the ears pricked up as the animal watches the danger. This is called “moouing” tl.e opus- sui. Then, with a gun in one’s hand, one fully realizes for the first time the meaning of the saying, “ ’Possam up agum tree,” ‘The unfortunate beast has the toughness of his skin ulone to trust to. “Bang!” and down it comes with a heavy thad on the ground, falling head first, tail outstretched ; or it clings with claws or tail, o¢ both, to the branches, swaying about wounded aud requires a second shot. It must come down at least, unless, indeed, the tree be su high that it is out of shot, or it mana- ges.to nip a small branch with its prehensible tail, in’ which case it sometimes contrives to hang up even when dead and remains out of rvach, Nearly all the female opossums ling. It is stated that the annual cost of liquor consumed in that State is $60,000, - 000. In Chicago there are 3,750 drinking which 1 shot hand a single young one inthe pouch. The young seem- ed to be attached with equal fre- quency to the right or left teat. I shot the animals in the hopes of obtaining young in’ the earlier stage, but found none such.

Mary is said to be in the world, A Year Without a Susiocee. oe During the cold spring, like that which, we hope, is just now drawing to an end, people generally console themselves with the reflection that the sun will eventually get the vic- tory and that sammer will certainly come at last, though its coming may be delayed. Uncertain as the weath- ér is, the general features of the'sens- ons recur witha regularity whieb warrants the confidence thus reposed in the annual return of seed time and naryest; but there are instances on record in which even the seasons seem to have lost their characteristic features, as if the ordjuary laws of metervlogy had been temorarily sus- pended. A remarkable case of this kind, and one which the long con- tinued cold weather of this springs makes purticularly interesting just now, is that of the year 1816, which has been called “the year without a summer.” A commanication printed in the Congreygationalist gives the fol- lowing summary of the weather of this remarkable year : January and February were mild ; March was cold ; April began warm, but ended fn snow and ice. Ice form- ed an inch thick in May and fields were planted over and over again till it was two late to replant. June was the coldest ever known in this lati- tude; frost and ice were common. Almost every green thing was killed; fruit nearly all destroyed. Snow fell to the depth of ten inches in Ver- mont, seven’ in Maine, three in’ the interior of New York, and also in Massachusetts. There were few warm days. It was called the dry season. Gucke Family Complication. A Frenchman’s Plan for Righting a Woman Wronged by His Son. In the suburbs of Paris there lived a short-time ago a wealthy widower, who was blessed with an only son. This young geutleman took a some- what low view of morality in general, and was living with Sly whose finger was adorned with no wedding ring, but who was nevertheless the mot of his two ch:Jdren.- The father was a kindly hearted unworld- ly old man, and constantly impressed apon his son the advisability of mar- rying the lady and thus (according to French law) legitimizing his children. The son, however, did not take the idea and at léast the anxious parent, deeming that he was at the point of death, summoned him to his bedside and declared that ualess he at once married his mistress he wonld do something that his son would after- ward regret. The son remained ob- durate and the next day his father sent for the cure and himself went through the form of marriage with the lady in question. Having thus done what he considered to be his duty, died and was buried. | His son then found that his own children had been converted into his stepbrothers and inherited with him and their equal shares of the paternal estate. If he is a wise man tnerefure, he will at once marry his father’s widow. But he can hardly marry his stepbrothers. So at least half of the property which would otherwise have been his has been sacrificed to his obstinacy. na. al Bat little rain fell. The wind blew | steadily from the north, cold and | fierce. Mothers knit extra socks and | mittens for their children in’ the spring, and) woodpiles that usually disappeared during the warm spell | built up again. Planting and shiv- ering were done together and the farmers who worked out their taxes on the country roads wore overcoats and mittens, Ina town in Vermont a flock of sheep belonging to a farmer had been sent as usual to their pasture. Ou the 17th of June a heavy snow fell in New England. The cold was in- tense. A farn:er who had a large field of corn in Tewkesbury built fires around it at nigh to ward off the frust ; many an evening he and his neighbors took turns watching them. He was rewarded with the only crop of corn in the neighborhood. Considerable consequence of the rapid rise of the Mississippi river, Fears were enter- tained that the sun was cooling off, and throughout New England all picnics were strictly prohibited, July was accompanied with and ice. Indian corn was. nearly all destroyed; some favorably situated fields escaped. August was cheerless, if possible, than the suz- mer mouths which preceded it. Ice was formed half an inch in thickness. Indian corn was so frozen that the greater part was cut down and dried tor fodder. Almost every green thing was destroyed in this country and in Europe. On the 30th snow fell at Barnet, forty miles from Londen. Very little corn ripened in New Eng- supplied themselves from corn pro- duced in 1815 for seed in the spring of 1817. ‘It sold from $4 to $5 per bushel. . September furnished about two weeks of the pleasantest weather of the season, but in’ the latter part of the mouth ice formed an inch thick. October had more than its share of the cold weather. November was cold and snowy. December was com- fortable, and the winter following was mild. Very little vegetation was matured in the Eastern and Middle States. ‘The sun’s rays seemed to be destitute of heat during the summer; all nature was clad ina sable hue, aud man exhibited no little anxiety concerning the future of his life. The average price of flour during the year was $13 per barrel, The average price of wheat in England was 97 shillings per quarter.

It is u gratifying fact that intelligent members of the republican party ave alarmed at this evidence of nnfaithfulness to the peo- ple. It is generally believed that the President gave the weight of his in- fluence tu the acquittal of these princely offenders, or at least failed to evince such concern for the vindication of law and the people's rights as to warrant the belief that he stood ou the side of the coautry.

Dorsey says that the committee never kept any records. The only records in his posscs- sion are cancelled checks showing the disbursements from his own pocket in behalf of the committee. He never res ceived or disbursed a dollar ot money substribed for political purposes, but he paid out some $13,000 for his own per- sonal expenses in behalf of the commit- tee, nnd for salaries of his clerks.

A SPECULATIVE MAKQUIS AND HIS ACCOM- PLICES ON TRIAL, Paris June 12.—The trial was begun to-day of the Marquis DeRoysand seven- teen other persons, who are charged with utuslaughter, frand and infringement of pablic companies and emigration laws. Iu July 1877, Marquis DeRoys advertised laud for sale in the island of Port Breton, iu Oceauica, aud inaugurated a schene for emigration thereto. The Legitimist papers interested themselves in the en- terprise, and five million franes were subscribed to further ir. Of this sum the Marquis pocketed two million franes: It i3 stated that 700,000 eetarcs of land Were sold, although the island ouly cou- tains 7,000 hectares. The Marquis had aps of the ishand published, in which were indjcated imaginary houses, church- es, and roads. He also instituted wilitia and gendarmerie forees and vecessary forces. Flually he dispatched to the is- land four old sailing ships with a num- ber of emigrants, the majority of whom perished under the mest miserable cir cumstances. On one vessel thirty emi- grants died during the passage, 250 more died from hunger and disease after touching Port Breton, and five others Were captured and eaten by the natives of the island. Only one hundred of the unfortanate people succecded in reaching a frieudly country. a «>: - Luvestments in the South.

They close to-day. We learn from the Journal-Observer of this morning, that Maj. Robert Bingham, of the Bingham School, delivered on Monday evening his address on “The Physical, Intellectual and Moral Culture of Man.” This address was first delivered at the University of Virgin- ia, and elicited very high praise. The at- tendance at Davidson on this occasion was very large, attracting a great nomber of the old students who so naturally feel a deep interest in the progress of the Institu- tion. There were three vacancies in the Pro- fessorship to be filled, to wit: Greek, Latin and Mathematics, by the resignations of Profs. Latimer, Sampson and Carson, who have accepted positions in other placss, or gone to look after private interests in other States. The Trustees have readily sup- plied the places of these distinguished teachers by the election of Prof. Geo. F. Nicolassen, A. M., Ph D., of the South- western Presbyterian University, at Clarkes- ville, Tenn., to the chair of Greek; W. J. Bingham, to the chair of Latin; and Prof. Vincent, of Texas, to the chair of Mathe- matics. These are all distinguished schol- ars in the departments they are called to fill. Col. Bennet H. Young, of Kentucky, de- livered the annual oration. After a few pleasing remarks on his first acquaintance with North Carolina and her men, he an- nounced as his subject, “The True Test of Human Greatness.” The effort rected mainly to impress his hearere with the idea of unselfish aiims, as the road to happiness and fame» o Fire.—Mr. Andrew Kineaid bad the misfortune to lose his new dwelling and several outhouses by fire, ‘Tuesday night last.

Lonpvon, June 16.—An accident from a crush occured at the children’s entertain- ment at Sunderland, England, thia even- ing aud 178 of the children were killed. From details thus fur received, it ap- pears that an entertainment had been give in. Vieteria hall by a composer which was attended almost altogether by children to the number of several thou- sand. The aceideut oecarred at the close of the performance. The body of the hall had been entirely cleared of its oceu pants when some 2,000 little ones came rushing down stairs from the gallery. Atthe top of the first flight of stairs there was a door which opened only twenty inches and thas only one ehild could pass through at a time. At this point while the mass of the children were pushing forward one of them fell and wus unable to rise owing to the others crowding on. The result was that a great uumber were pushed down, trampled on and suffocated. The scene was terrible and no effort could stop the mad rush of affrighted children. They came on pell- mell down stuirs, though quickly and without much shouting. The bodies which were badly mangled from tramp- ling laid seven or eight deep. Many of the victims and others who were not killed had their clothing torn from their bodies. The ages of the 178 children known tohave been killed range from 4to 14 years, The excitement in the town when the news of the disaster spread was terrific. Great crowds ot people rashed to the scene until at least 20,000 persons surrounded the hall. The fecling was so intense that the aathori- ties called the 68th lufantry to preserve order. The work of getting out the bodies of the victims was begun imme- diately. They were laid oat in the hall and the parents of those killed were ad- mitted for the purpose of identifying the bodies of their children. The most heart-rending seenes transpired while the work of identification was in progress, Fon tux Boston Suow.—Mr. J.D. Stewart, the Superintendent of Dunu’s large gold brick from this mine tu the Boston Exhibition. . , Mr. J. J.

B. Hanna: The operations at the Hancock Vein continue unchanged. At the Carolipa Queen the placer work is actively prose- cated, and several veins are opened to furnish the mill now iu process of eree- tion with an abundance of material for its work. J.C. Mills, at Brindletown, it is report- ed, has recently uncovered richer mate- rial. At the Greyson mine bat little work is doing. At the Atkins mine mere work is done this season than usual. The sluice and ditch at the Gamble mine are vearly finished ; their capacity is about 100 inehes of water, and the head will be ample to allow good work on the gravel, which, it is claimed, is un- usually good ; everything here is favora- ble for a good picce-of work in the way of prodaction. At the Vein Mountain mine the state of affairs is without ehange, and but little work is dove. A considerable force of men is sluicing on the Hard Bargain, ad- jacent, and the superintendent reports satisfactory returns. The petty work of this section is not so actively proseeuted as in former years, asthe returus from farming work are more remunerative than formerly. LL 2 Preparing fer LBeston, Dr. C. W. Dabney, State Chemist, is traveling in this part of the State at present, in the interest of the North Car- olina exhibit at the Mechanics’ and Man- ufactarers’ Fair to be held at Boston next fall, and spent yesterday at Statesville. We trust the people of our section will give the movement every encouragement, as it is of great importance that the State should be creditably represented at this great exposition. Weare glad to know that Statesville will occupy her share of Space ip the State exhibit. Dr. Dabney has chosen Mr. T. K. Bruner, of Salisbu- ry, (an excellent selection, by the way), as bis sub-agent in a tier of counties in which Iredell, Alexander, Wilkes and Yadkin are embraced, to work up inter- estin and secure coutributions for the Boston fair.—Landmark.

Ile also made urrangements with the Messrs.

A large number of miues will be repre- sented by the specimens, and mint certiti- cates of assays will accompany cach spe— eimen. This will direct particular atten- tiou to our mining interest, whieh ave se important now and which give promise of such great development.

This morning on chan it was looked forward to with considera fear that the market might take another downward turn, but it proved otherwise and at 11 o’elock July option which close at 9.774 Saturday, had risen to 9.95, and the feeling was comparatively firm. Be- yond the firms reported in these des- patches Saturday, none others have suc- cumbed, aud the firm of Ellis & Lightner who are among those reported as crip- pled, have transferred their deals, and in this manner have tided over. The associated press estimate of losses, put- ting them at $2,500,000, is as nearly accurate as can now be made. Some published accounts swell these figures to $3,000,000, but this is largely based on conjecture. The firm of MeGeoch,- Er- ringham & Co, decline to furnish any additional data at this time, avd can make to statement until some days have elapsed, eee Apvices From Peru.—Lima, Jane 16, (via Central and South Ametican cables and via Galveston).—The members of the pew Arequipa Cabinet are as follows: Secretary of State, Mariana Valcareel ; Mivieter of the Interior, Frederico How- ard; Minister of Justice, Senor Velez; Miuister of War, Col.

Because, as in North Carolina there are tens of thousands of square miles of virgin forests, it meed not be thought that there is no danger to the sections and that it is fully to plant trees. We have examined enough into the sub- ject tetknow that therg has been a sliame- ful waste of trees, tok @ consequent evil attending it.

Those gifted with a genius for preparing tempting and wholesome edibles by pulting them ina marketable shape as preserves, or iu any other imperish- able condition, may reap their reward. Many wild fruits possess a peculiarly delicate flaver which is not found in the cultivated varieties, and there would appear to be no reason why a special demand for jams and jellies made from fruits and berries growing under natural conditions should not be created.” ——— <li> Gly A A Goldsboro man bought a straw hat recently under the inside band of which he found a dainty little note requesting that if the purchaser should be a “good looking uumarried man,” he could get a wife by addressing a certain number in Baliimore. This reminds us of a pretty little story by Saxe Holme in which a sweet little country maiden, during the late war, wade a number of pairs of socks and puta note of a similar character in the toe of one sock. These were sent to a committee of ladies who were nurs- ing and providing for the wants of a hospital full of weanded soldiers. One of these got the sock with the vote, answered it, and the result was a happy, peaceful marriage.— Winsion Sentinel, ————>- ae How To Carcu A Horse.—If a horse is shy and lard to catch, take finely grated castor bears of rhodium and cummin. Keep them in separate boteles, well corked. Put some of the oil of cummin on your hand and ap- proach the horse on the windy side. He will then move toward you. As svon as you can reach him, rub some of the cummin on his nose, give him a little of the castor, or anything he likes, and yet a few diops of the oil rhodium on his tongue.

My wife for many years was confined to her bed suffering from spinal disease. After spend ing a thousand dollars in vain effort to get cured, she applied three ALLcock’s PLas-— TERS to the spinal column, one above the other. Ina few days all pain left her. She applied fresh plasters every two weeks and in the course of two months she com-— pletely recovered her health. At first she could hardly walk across the room; each day she walked a little further, and now she is able to walk five miles without fa- tigne. She still occasionally applies the plasters to her back, but she has been per- fectly well for upward of a year, LEWIS L. HAMMEL.

I know a little lady Who wears a hat of green, All trimmed with red, red roses, And a blackbird ou the brim, She tied it down with ribbona, Under her dimple chin ; For oftentimes it’s breezy When she comes tripping in, She'll] drop a dainty courtesy, Perhaps she'll throw a kiss ; She brings so many handred That one she'll never miss. With langhing, sunny glances She comes her fricuds to grect ; There’s not another maiden In all the world so sweet ? Her name? The roses tell you! Tis in the blackbird’s tune! ‘This smiling little lady Is just our own dear June! -—Lizzie L. Gould, in St. Nicholas. = A commonplace life, we say, and we sigh; But why shoald we sigh as we say? The commonplace sun iu the common- place sky Makes ap the commonplace day. The moon and stars are commonplace things, that sings ; But sad were the woyld, and dark om lot, If the flowers failed and the sun shone not, And God, who secs each separate soul, Out of commonplace lives makes his beautiful whole. —Susan Coolidge. The Solid Content a Farmer Has, BY BILL ARP. Farming is a slow way to make money, but then there is a law of compensation about everything in this life, and farming has its bles- sings that other pursuits do not have. The farmer belongs te nobody. He is the freest man upon earth and the most independant. He has more latitude and longitude, He has a house in the country with plenty of pure air and good water. If he makes but little in the field, he has no oc- casion to spend but little. He can raise his own hogs, and sheep, and cattle and chickens, His wood costs nothing, and the luxury of big back- logs aud blazing fires in open fire- places all winter long is something that city people long for, but cannot afford. My own farm cost me $7,000. Ihave 120 acres of open land in good condition, und it yields me on an average about five dollars an acre over all expenses. Say nine per cent. upon the investment. Well, that is mighty little considering my own labor and supervision, I’ve seen the time when I mace five times as much without any capital exeept my head. But then we have to keep a pair of horses to ride arvund, and they have to be fed from the farm, There are little leaks all round, but still we are happier on the farm than we were in the town, and feel more secure from the ills of life. We fear no pestilence or disease, no burglars or thieves. We lock no doors, and Mrs. Arp has quit looking under the bed for aman. I love to hear the churn dasher splashing in the butter milk. I Jove to hear the rooster crow and the peuoock holler, and see the martins sailing round the martin gourds, I love to have a neighbor stop and chat about the growing crops. I love to take the chiidren with me to the watermill and fish below the dam amid the roar of fall- ing waters, or paddle around the pond iu an old leaky bateau. I love to wander through the woods aad glades, und wear old/cluthes that can’t get no older or dirtier, and get caught in a shower of rain if I want to, Old man Horace remarked about two thonsand years age that the town was the best place for a rich man to live in, and the country was the best Oct, 2, 1489 50:ly place for a poor man to die in, and And a blessing, failing us once or twice, | The thower that blooms and the bird | lan hour without aching. inasmuch as riches were uncertain and death was sure, it becomes a pra- dent man to move to the country as goon as he can get there. Farmers have their ups and downs, of course, bat they don’t collapse and bust up like tradesmen, They don’t godown under # panic. anthnmeniinjpecllipalie intial The Conversational Style, It was a rainy Sabbath and bat few were present in the little country chureh. As the preacher came in, some of the sisters gathered about him and said; “Dou’t preach to-day, Bro- ther - Just talk to us,” How many long-suffering congregations, with systems wearic, and nerves rasped under the loud, shrill, high pitched, declamatery tone of the preacher, if they could only find a voice during the sermon, would cry out to the pulpit, ‘‘Dou’t preach to us any longer ; just talk to us!’ Hooker, iv his “Kcelesiastical Pol- ity,” tells of the complaint of the peo- ple about the preaching in his day ; “Some take but one word for their text and afterward run into the moun- tains so that we cannot follow them, not knowing how they went up, or how they will come down again.” So some preachers nu sooner name their text than they mount up io a high swelling tone as fur removed from the ordinary way in which a man tulks, as the East is from the West; and, having once mounted, they never come down again until the end of the sermon, Etymologically, the sermon or homily is a talk, and not an ora- tion. ‘The best rule, then, for the or- divary preacher is to make the con- versationalstyle the basis of bis deliv- ery. Not that he is never to rise from which be starts out as his favor leads him, and to which he returns after a short excursion, will not be so much in danger of wearying himself. One may talk for hours iv conversation without fatigue. It is the unnatural declamatory tones that make the throat ache. Again, he will net be much in danger of weary- ing the people. One may listen toa conversation for hours without feeling tired, but one cannot listen to one de- claiming in a uniform pitch for half In conver- sation one varies his tone to suit his thought, while one Who declaims is in danger of keeping ove pitch for all kinds of thought. ‘Yo be sure, there are Some in every Cunere wation Ww ho will think the preacher tame who on- ly talks. ‘How your bew preacher?” another. derfully; he preaches louder and loud- er!” But those who have this test— in any congregation —are compara- tively few. do you like sail one neighbor to not be so much in danger of affecta- “De new preacher ts Lut, bless dulefal tion and eant. mo’ Jarnt dan Mistah Boles: yeu, sal! he ain’t got sound like Mr. Boles bad. de and dolefal tone the moment he ty of affectation ; bis tones cannot be a true index to his feelings, ‘There are some goed souls, indeed, upon whom the doleful tone seems tu act usa kind of charm. They will close their eyes aud float to heaven ander without any regurd to what he is say- ing. But, it is safe to say, that while one ina congregation, under a preach- ing tone, will close his eyes and soar tu heaven, ten will close their eyes und sink to sleep. If one speaks in the tone of conver- sation, he will use the short, simple words of conversation. Nothing is more manifest than that the pulpit should use, net the artificial language of books, but the simple, common words of life. Great, swelling tones necessarily draw after them great, swelling words, All great revivalists are colloquial and conversational in their preaching. “Nothing is- more ealculated,”’ says Mr. Finney, “to make a sinuer feel that religion is a most mysterious thing that he cannot un- derstand, than this mouthing, formal, lofty style of speaking, se generally employed in the pulpit.” — The Church Advocate. ee : - Philadelphia Reeord (Ind.): The Repub ican party has been a useful party and a great party and a strong party and a respeotable party iu this country ; but fur all this, it must not imagine that when its trusted chiefs and lieutenants are haulded ap in court day after day to be tried for the country that the party itself is not also upon trial. [i is; aud the peo- ple so understand it, Asheville Citizen: Mr. C. E.

The — we happy pair left the same (lay fora northern tour, Mrs. Stowe’s “Uncle Tom.” Rev Josiah Henson, known for many years as Mrs, Stowe’s “Uncle Tom,” died recently at Dresden, Ont., | in his nivety-fourth year, in an exchange the following accoun of his life: Mr. Henson was born, a slave in 1789, in Olarles. county, Maryland and in bis infancy he was from his father, and a few years later from his elder brothers and sisters. Josiah and his mother remained » in. Montgomery county, Md., ‘on ° tlie plantation of Isaac Riley, whose con- fidence Josiah gained by protecting him in nfany dranken “brawls and by caring for his estate, After the slave had reached manhood the master be- came bankrupt, and, fearing that his negroes would be sold, he persuaded Joxiah to lead them to the estate of his brother, Amos Riley, in Kenatueky, Henson safely conducted twenty-one slaves including his wife and two children a distance of nearly 1,000 wiles, In Kentucky the religious faith whieh his mother had instilled into him deepened, and withoyt being nble to rend, he became a preacher in the Methodist Episcopal church. Such was his character for trathful- ness that he was frequently allowed to leave the State on business, and even to go Northon his promise to re- } turn, Ata Methodist conference in Cin- cinnati, in 1828, he vubtained gifts amounting to $275, aud sometime af- So mH this, but let this be the point from, ‘The following ad- | vantages will result: The preacher | “Oh, he is improving Won- | Further, a preacher who talks will | No, in-| deed!” [fa man assumes a preaching | che | ters the palpit, he cannot but be guil- | the influence of the preacher’s tone | J deed be stable and strong. criminal offeuses against the laws of ter he arranged with his master to purchase his freedom for $450, He paid the money, only to find that he was the victim of a trick, and would have ta pay $500 more for his free- dom.

In 1851, after his eldest son had taught him to read, he visited England, carrying in- ltroductions to many people aud meet- ling with great kindness. On his re- turn he wrote and published his ay- tobiography for the parpose of raising money to buy the freedom of his elder brother. Mrs. Stowe doubtless obtained from Mr. Henson much of her material for “Unele Tom’s Cabin,” but that novel is not the history of Mr. Hen-on asa slave, por was he the model for “Un- cle Tom.” Mr. Henson visited Eng- land again a few years ago, and had ‘an interview with Queen Victoria. ‘Lhe British public has purchased 40,- 000 copies of his autobiography. >> The rapid strides which Mexico is linaking in civilization cannot be well appreciated by those who have no par- iticular dealings with that country, so long steeled against progress.

He says a Scottish syndi- cate paid $4,000,000 for 6,000,000 acres of land near Durango, a few days since, and that a German syn- dicate bought up several willion dol- lars worth of land in New Mexico not long ago. In Old Mexico ranch after ranch is owwed by foreign capi- talists. He perdicts that in 50 years’ time Americans will own nine of Mexico’s Northern States, a8 the for- eiguers who invest capital there eventually locate upon their lands and become Americans. In speaking f Chihuahua, he said: “It isa splendid city. It has well paved strects, is well lighted and watered, and is one of the best policed cities I ever was in. I havu’t heard of a row there for two years. Every sa- loon is closed at 11 o’clock.” i -> —a—— ,c We find} Arkanses Traveler, a large number of children hud- the door of an Arkansas “Did you takeit fur sich children,” “Well, I reckon you had a right to your opinion.” “But is it a school?” “No, it ain’t,” “Are all these children yours ?” “T reckin they ar. ’Pears to me that way, anyhow.” “How do you make.a living forall of them ?” I don’t.

It is the greaf/issue between the two par- ties; each party is committed upon it; there is no doubt how each stands.” Senator Sherman is right. The Democratic party must fight squarely for “a tariff for revenue only,” or else it can make no real fight at all. It is a fact that so firm in texture is the paper of a genuine Bank of England note that burning alone cau hardly destroy it. The authorities have in a little glazed frame the remnant of a note which was in the great fire of Chicago. Though completely charred and black, the paper still holds together, aud the printing of the note is said to be sufficiently legible to establish its genuiness and to warrant its being cashed. There are some other notes at the bank after having gone down with the steamer Ery dice a few years ago and reduced to a little more than pulp.

The fearful strain on their nerves was happily of not long duration, for presently they were relieved by secing the creature gradually untwine itself and go to the milk. Never before did that of- ficer leap from his seat as he did then, the moment he felt himself free from the coils of the cobra, and read in the faces of his comrades that he Short shrift, Lowever, had Mr. Cobra, for sticks and whip- handles were freely administered, even before the saucer was reached. — ss — ~~ ae_ ——_ — PouisHh JAKE'S REMARKABLE SLATE.—Two months ago a Pole, named Jacob Meriwisky, came to Centralia, Pa., and opened a saloon.

They did so, and yesterday all the promincnt business inen were startled by the preseptation of bills for liquor at Polish Jake’s, They indignantly refused to pay, ying they had never entered the saloon, and other parties had used their names. An investigation of Polish Jake’s books showe | this to be true. Henry Ward Beecher, accord- ing to the book, owes $42 ; John B.

Dated Mav. 23, 1883. _ Bt A oh ee ee e ee he — Carolina Watchman. a ES THURSDAY, JUNE 28, J283, -_-—.— —- — em, The Charlotte Jowrnal-Obserter says, Mr. Philip Schiff, of that place was geing to du a tine business lu sheep raiang, bat that the dogs got Among them one night and killed @3 of them. The same pack killetl 12 for one of Mr. Schiff's neighbors. A Doc Law that will protect sheep in a country where dogs are at liberty to go when and whete they please, whether un- der or out of the protection of the law, is practically an impossibility. A statate that would outlaw a dog the moment he eross- es the line of his owner's premises with- out the presence of his owner or some one to watch him, would be of little or no value ; for the dog is always very stealthy in his pursoit of sheep, often passing by his master’s flock and going two, three, and even five miles to fall on a flock he has a mind to attack. Dogs which have veen kept chained all day and tarned loose at night, have been con vieted of go- ing three or four miles from home to kill sheep, notwithstanding they were. at the tloor curly in the morning, ready to meet the first rising member'of the family with a friendly greeting. The only effect of an outlawing atatate would be to thin out the dogs a trifle, and to cause neigh- bors to fall eat with each other. A statute levying a heavy tax ou dogs and at the sume time outlawing them when off their owner's prewises without a master, woald certainly thin thens out ; but eyen that would not affurd protection to sheep exposed iu the puatares ; fur there are thousauds of dog owners tho would cheerfully pay the tax and trust their dogs on good behaviour, It is rare— ly that masters will believe an accusation against their dogs antil it is proven be- youd dispute. In fine, it is practically impossible to keep dogs, ranning loose day or night, from killiug sheep exposed to their depredations. ‘They have a na- tural passion for the shsughter and will indulge it as certainly as the spirit moves them. Iu view of this fact it is worth while to consider whether or not it is possible to prevent the evil by A LAW FOR THE PROTECTION OF DOGS. By common consent a dog canght in the act of killing sheep, (which is a nata- ral ivatinet). isdoomed to death by the rope or the shot. This is very hard on him, for we may not suppose that he knew the consequences, or that he incur- red the penalty with malice, or in de- fiance of the assented law, It is beyond dispute unjust to the deg, as any think- ing, reasoning master must feel, when he reluctantly consents to the killing of his dog taken iu the act. A law fur the pro- tection of the dog would be more in har- mony with reason and human sensibili- ties than a sauguinary statute against him in relation to the sheep question. Let it be enacted that the owner of every dog shall keep him seeurely housed day and night, and never allow him to escape from his quarters except when his ser- vices are needed, and then to be returned to them immediately after such service, on a penalty of five dollars for each and every offense. Such a law rigidly enfore- ed, would practically protect the dog and encourage sheep husbandry. Since it is impossible tor both sheep and dogs to run at large without depredations being com mitted, aud that it is easier and cheaper tu keep dogs in cunfinement than sheep, the reason gf ach a law is apparent, and must commend itself to every intelligent man not influenced by prejudice. eee DvELLIsTs.—Two Virginia editors, W. (C, Elam, editor of the Whig; and Mr. R. F. Birne, of West Virginia, were deprived of the satisfaction of shooting at each other a day or two ago, by an officer of the law who kept his eye ou their move- ments and lit upon one of the parties, Mr. Birne and his friends, about twenty minutes before the time appeinted for the fight. Elam is a native of this State, from Fayetteville. They are both mar- ried wen of high charweter and standing, and it should gratify every good citizen that a bloody affair has been prevented. ee — There has been a reduction of forty-six in the number of internal revenue collec- tion distriets of the country. North Car- olina will hereafter hare oue less than hitherto. It will require some time to rearrange the districts so as to distribute tho territory of abolished districts among those still remaining. It is claimed that the reduction will save $200,000 annual expenses for collecting services, which, in view of the cost of the busivess in the 6th North Carolina alone, is a very small sun. nn ea A Peorte Witn Tais.—a telegram from Rio Janeiro to the Cineinnati Times Star reports that in Paiaguay, South America, there has been diacevered a tribe of ludiaus with tails, bat without hair on their bodies. A bey, seven or eight years old, was captured and excited much wonder, he having a tail six or eight inches long. A brother of the bey, in possession of Cul. R.

He said in substance that when the liberal move- ment was first inaugarated he believed it to be « good thing. The Democratic party, he thoaght, was pot cqual to the times and was perhaps corrapt. Thus he embraced the new party, hoping to find in it the beet elements of both the old ones. But he had not long to remain iv And his bitter denanciation of the frand, and his mortification at having beeu drawn into it, were evidently sincers. He finished by saying that “as long as he lived he would never vote any other tick- et than the Democratic”—hia old party. The feelings and convictions of this gentleman in regard to Liberalism accord with those of the few intelligent men in our county, who were for a time deceived by the fraud. ‘They havé come to real- alize—some soover, some later—that the Liberal party, so-called, isa farce and a political absurdity. Before the next elec- tion all those who do not desire to grada- ally let themselves down into the Repub- lican party, will have done with Liberal- ism, and will be found wheeling into line again under the old Democratic standard, a resuit fully sustained by reason and common sense, —_———- oo DeraccTer Po.x.—The State Treas- urer of Tenvesace is on trial for his de- faleation. When the case came up his attorney offered an affidavit for continuu- ance, setting forth the intention of the defendant to pay back to the State the whole sam for which he is liable, if time be given him for that purpose. This paper went on to recite the means with which defendant expected to pay off his liability, now and prospectively availa- ble. This is a gratifying evidence of his honesty. The jadge, however, declined to grant a suspension of proceedings, and ordered the trial to begin. re The readers of this paper will sec ac- count elsewhere of most disastrous floods in the Miasiasippi valley, above and be- low St. Louis, And these disasters may be looked for more and more, jast as the country shall be deprived of its timbered lands.

We have come jn part te this couclusion from the price of English shoes at home compared with Americay shoes. Rat as it is bow in order to dispute all tariff facts or theorics we will not push this point, although we have an impression that a pair of shoes yon mast pay $7 for would not bring moe than &4 or $4.50 if there was no tariff, tax ov foreign shoes. But our purpose is to copy a brief para- graph from the New York Jerald, which shows how the tariff acts when there is excessive production. It says: “Our shoe manufacturers can make iv six months all the shoes this counpury re- quires in a year; but, as David A. Wells showed the other day at Detroit on fhe. authority of a shoe manufacturer, the tariff? prevents them from selling their surplus to foreigners, and thus robs both is ready, and it only remains to put down | the crossties, which will be vigorously pushed. ‘The road is finished to, or very near, the town of Newton. ~ a The Mohave Arizona Miner speaks of a mineral discovery withina mile of town, a ledge of about one foot width, which people have been stumbling over for ten! years without suapecting yold.

But the probability that the polyamous community will be clothed with the privileges and powers of a State this year, er next, or for a dozen years, is very remote, Publie sentiment throagh- out the couutry demands the atter aban- don ment of polygamy by the Mormons as a condition preecdent to admission, and it is not probable that Congress will dare to disregard popalar opinion on this sub- ject. If Utah were admitted, nothing short of av ameudment to the cousticutio. of the United States prohibiting poly ga- my would eradicate that evil. Congress would be powerless without such an amendment. The Territory might be admitted with a constitution prohibiting polygamy, but she could revoke and an- aul that iustrument at pleasure, aud cer- tainly would do it and adopt one recog- nizing polygamy, which no Congressional legislation could reach. Or the State might see proper to allow the pro- hibitory clause to remain io ber cou- stitution, yet refuse to entorce it; or, to go further, Congress might make the abolition of polygamy a couditon of ad- wission, yet sach a condition would avail nothing, as the United States government could not enforce it.

Thas, while Mr. Hewitt repre- sents the Democratic dewand for a re- duction of tariff duties, his being a mauufactarer would allay any fears of the folly of free trade being attewpted daring his administration.

There are over 50 mineral localities in Rowan county, and the colleetor of speci- mens for the Boston Exhibition does not feel justified in visiting all of them. The more important localities have been vis- ited, and should any remain, of sufficient importanee, they will be visited. Where no work has been done it is pot deemed advisable to go, for perchance there my be uo ore worth takiug. Parties who own or control wining property, with good ore on dump, mast either notify T. K. Buouner, at Salisbury, or bring him 150 pounds of the best material obtainable, to secure a@ place in the coming exhibition. This notice is given beeanse he has been induced to visit some localities where no- thing of interest has been found.

The Gibb miving property of 875 acres was formerly known as the Cullen prop- erty. It adjoins the Phoenix and the Far- niss properties, and is now owned by Jno. D. Gibb, of Hautz, Eng. A survey of the property has reeently been made with a view of placing it on, the London market. It contains several good workable veins, from which good dividends could be paid on a reasonable capital with economy ex- ercised in the managemeuvt. The veins on this property which have been worked deepest are, first, the Duteh- man vein, to a depth of 120 feet. Consid- erable tunneling has been dove on this— which shows a continuous ore body of over 400 feet in length, Second, the Aarvhart vein, which has been sank to a depth of 125 feet. This veiu yields a species of copper ore bamwed by Dr. F. A. Geuth, of Philadelphia, ‘Barnhartite,” from the fact of its being first discovered at this point. This vein has al-o furnish- ed from the 120 feet level, the finest spe- cimens of gold in quartz that has ever been found in this State. Third, the Fisher vein, which had been worked about 40 years ago toa depth of 75 feet, and those who were engaged ou the work at that time report the ores to have yield- ed $150 per ton. There was sufficient evidence remaining on the surface to es- tablish the faet that the ores must have been very rich. Fourth, the Red Cabin vein has been opened to depth of 100 feet. The ore body on this vein is continuous and lengthy—the ores are rich in quality. There are a namber of other veins on the property which have been been sunk to a depth of from 20 to 50 feet, und in eve- ry insfanee yielding good pay ores. This property when more fully developed than at present, will demonstrate, with many other propertigs in the State, that gold mining in North Carolina can be made permanent and profitable, when couduct- ja meeting at Venice yesterday afteruoon [evel which there bas been some appre- ed systematically and = on economical principles.

There is no doult whatever, that there is plenty of mineral here, bat not for the man with afew hundred dollars, as everything is very expensive and wust be brought from the States, consequently large capital is required here for~snecess. In a recent trip over the country, I find many old mines having the appearance of bein worked over 200 years ago. The present inhabitants can give no information in re- gard to them, but it is generally believed that they were worked by the Spaniards, with Indian labor, as at that time the na- tive Indian was in bondage. In some places the large ‘amount of work accom- plished must have taken years and uc- ed great quantities OT gold and silver. I am speaking more particularly of the ore deposits which exist in the mountains. At the old placer mines also, remains of old work is yet to be seen. At one of the old placers we found the remains of what seemed to be an old Indian church, built of rock and lime cement, and many small mounds, showing conclusively that at some time past this country was worked largely as a mining region. From all I can learn ‘no immensely rich deposits are found here, but one continual regular mass of ore or gravel, asthe case may be. As yet the placers are all worked with simple rocker or sluice box, but at the present time a New York company are placing in hydraul- ic machinery, and are confident that the dirt will yield fifty cents to the cubic yard, when they arein operation. As this is the first hydraulic in this part of the country, it isattracting much attention. The gold is mostly small, averaging about pieces of one-quarter of a grain, and is evently dis- tributed through the hard pack gravel banks. Plenty of water and dump are the advantages of the country. I need not mention the vast amount of timber of all kinds. The climate in the mountains is healthy. The days are waitm but the nights cool, and one always reqnires a blanket. A few more prospectors huve come inta the country, and all express themselves as well pleased. But without capital there is no chance here. The mining laws are very liberal, ancl such that a man can take up his claim, and by continued work hold it. A few successes will bring the country into | notice and show good results, As yet all of the ventures are new and not producing.

The Columbus (Ga..) Enquirer modest- ly suggests to the Southern young mau who is proud of his family that he should at least try to do something to make his family proud of him. We think so. He should attend church festivals, not set his heart upon being elected to the legis- lature, and adopt the motto of the Hub- Lord.” Whenever the Republican party gets into a bad fix and its leaders apprehend disaster, some one cries “unload,” as Grant did when things began to look syually during his last adwinistration. Aud vow, when the storm clouds are gathering, Republican editors are begin- ning to ery “nanload.”—News & Observer.

The papers in that country hare sense if the people have none. Grant’s ambi- tion seems to be recognized in other lauds aud his associates, even are suspceted.— Hickory Carolinian. Gen, Crook, in his pursuit of the Apa- chese, made a raid into Mexican territory, (by tho consent of course, of tie Mexican government), overtook aud snirounded a large party of the savages, killed ‘some, and captured the otbers, together with a large booty of mules,-ponies, gold and silver, arms, &c., and also released sev- eral captured women and children.

The North Carolina resolution on the tariff is likely enough to be incor- porated in the national Democratic platform next year. Itis the same as that of Indiana.

Letter from a Gentlemen Ninety Years Old.—Lonfg Life from Use of Brand- reth’s Pills. Prairie DU Culex, Wis,, Feb, 11, 1882, Tam inthe ninetieth year of my eatrhly pilgrimage, and before passing to another, and I trust, a better world, P wish to bear testimo. ny to the great virtues of Brandreth’s Pilleas « househald remedy, ‘fhey are the best blood purifiers and cleansers of the stomach and bow- ela in the world. I have raised a family of 10 children, been blessed with three wives,and my family experience reaches over seventy yeara. For oyer forty-five years I“have Known and believed in Brandreth’s Pills, They have oured me of indigestion, oostiveness, dyspepsia; and the females of my family have found them invaluable at all times, I also wish to say that I have found AuLcock’s Porous Pxas- TERS very useful in breast. pains, backache and weak muscles. ALFRED Brunson, A.M., D.D. CURE OF NEURALGIA, Taken asa “Forlorn Hope,” Brandr eth’s Pills Effectka [Magical Cure.—Small- Pox Cured. Schenck Ave., East New York, April 12, 1880, I most cordially give my testimony as to the great value of Brandreth’s Pilla, verified by eighteen years’ experience in my mother’s (the late Mre, Dr, Geo M Browne) tamily and my own. They were at first taken as a “for- lorn hope,” for the cure of a very severe case of Neuralgia of several years’ standing, the |” patient being completely prosirated by disease and the excessive use of opium, taken to dead- en the pain (by advice of her physician.) The effects were almost magical; in one month she wawable to be up and walk around freely, and the disease has never returned, My , was also cured of an attack of Inflamatory RKhumatism by the same means. About six years ago [ was taken with what appeared to be 4 bad cold, but in a short time, symtoms of confluent Small Pox were developed, causing us much alarm. I determinedto try Brand. reth’s Pills as a remedy, and their efficacy was soon apparent. J was well much sooner than was expected, and withont receiving a single mark or trouble of any kind. It is my firm belief, judging from the severity of the case, that had I gone through the regular routine prescribed by physicians, I should have died. { know of many other instances of the value of Brandreth’s Pills in disease affd sickness, which I will be happy <a give to any one who will apply to me. ; Mas, E.
