(he Ciiunot help it), and the tnoiehestud-' ies the display the greater is his admira- ' v..... .w, w..w..u. utiiiiii rewuura of the old North State. The following ' f ion till' llii. ir Aliiliki.tii I ioitiiK.il iman nnn synopsis of what may be seeu there will be useful to tho Bulletin's readers, al though it will be rather in the line of sug gestive hints than of a descriptive cata logue. THE USEFUL MINERALS of the State iuclude mica, chromic iron, corundum, manganese, kaolin, fire clay, agulmatolite, whetstone, millstone, graph ite, limestone, marble, talc, serpentine, ban te, marls, asbestos, soapstoiie, pyrite and several kinds of building stones. Liberal specimens of all these are display ed iu the State's exhibit, in addition to t,,e baMr and oufi,, metal8 and minerals . mere are precious stones shown in case., a 1 a a a a I mciuuing agate, uervi, ttiamoud, emeraia, 00 T " " carnet. hiddeuite. (a auione stone) onal. ruby, sapphire and zircon. Among the ' building stones there are several peculiar i specimens, such as the leopardite, from its odd tracings and spots resembling a leopard's skin ; also granite with large and irregular green spots. These fanci ful work i ngs are probably due to segrega tion of manganese, and tlie stone when polished is very handsome. There is nothing like it North. The marbles aud sandstones shown are susceptible of a high polish. The marble industry iu the State is not yet developed, and the specU mens shown at the fair were detached from the surface veins. THE IRON ORES of North Carolina are widely distiibuted over the State, and include all tlie princi pal kinds magnetite, hematite, liuiouite ami smeiite, anu most ot tueir varieties aud modifications. As iu all other branches of industry, this branch is im perfectly conducted aud only a few mines are in first class rnuuing order. Some sixty lots are shown in the exhibit. One of the most remarkable and persistent rauges of iron ore iu the State crosses the county of Guilford, some ten miles north west of Greensboro. The ore is granular magnetic, and is everywhere titan if erous. The length of the outcrop, air line, is l en ty -eight miles. Another ore belt, running parallel with it at a distance of three miles from it, known as the Shaw outcrop. There are apparently ','00,000 tons of ore above water level, in this par ticular section, iu the ore six loot bed. The ore locally called "powder ore" is unique, being a very pulveriileut mass carrying a notable per cent, of oxide of manganese, and assays 98.92 per cent, pure iron, and is exhibited in considera- ble quantities. The mine is located ouc- half mile went of Wooteu's Station, on t,ie Air-Line Railroad. THE GOLD EXHIBITS. The gold of North Carolina belongs to j four different geological positions, and is generally more or less alloyed with sil . ver varying from pure gold on one side to pure silver on the other. According to the specimens shown in the exhibit, the auriferous ore of the State in a gener al way embraces nearly one-half of the State, bat the productive area contains about 13,000 square miles. Nearly every mod of occurrence of gold known to the geeiegjai and mining engineer finds here aD illustrative example, and the same is aioWu in the apedmens in the State's X- Liuit Tie exillit of mitiva goid aD(i goW. bearing minerals attracts much attention that from Stanly, Montgomery, Ruther- ford and Caldwell counties being free milling, and that from the other counties obtained in the form of sulphurate. In golue of the counties of the State from half a dozen to thirty-three mines are worked more or less. The average assay of gold iu the State is about $10 value per ton. In some instances as much as $00 a ton has been assayed. Rowan county is especially prolific iu gold miH- l .1 - m,w '"" uu 8UOWB y eu. at the fair. A group of mines - ll .

The scope of the exhibit of specimens of useful minerals and building sUues is a surprise to many good people unac- qaainted with the resources of North Car- 0jlia por j8tance, mica mining has been carried on here for years, aud one wine in Mitchel county yields a tou of .... marketable mica a month ', and this re- RMU furnishes the bulk of this mineral to the world's markets.

The collection of nam woous on exinoition suggests a . . source of immense wealth. These woods have laid the foundation for extensive manufactures, such as wagons aud car- nages, shuttles aud bobbins, plates and dishes of gum wood, while the most val- uable cabinet woods are shipped abroad The high finish or polish which many of the woods are susceptible of attracts the attention of manufacturers of wood. Mauy of these woods are unknown iu New England. Much of the cottou goods mauufac tured are for local or home con sumption, The kiuds on exhibition equal the best made anywhere, so far as texture and finish are concerned. The cottou mills in the State now number 64, aud operate 2,858 looms aud 156,030 spindles. The fisheries of the State are the most, important along the Southern Atlantic coast, employing over $500,000 capital, and yielding a total value of products to the fisherman of 50,000 annually. Spe cimens of North Carolina food fish are now being arranged iu the exhibit. Agricultuagkd its kindred pursuits, I jn tuve disintegrated.

Thou Under land est My Thought Afar Off. Mary was kneeling down by the side of her bed, her eyes closed and her hands clasped. If her mother had seen her she would have thought she was praying, and she would have been pleased that she knelt so long. But she was only "saying her pray ers." not pray i He. Her mind was full of the young people down in the parlor, whose shouts of merriment came sounding up the Stairs every few minute", and of the happy eve ning she had had. They were all older than herself, and though her mother had allowed her to sit up an hour later than usual, the time had come when Mary knew it would not do to beg for a'li ttle more time." But the longer she knelt the more her thoughts wandered away from what she was tryii g to do. The words, some of them, passed through her mind, but that was ail. At last she jumped up. ''It's no use," shy said, hurrying into bed. "J ve tried my best. Well, nobody will know I couldn't get through the Lord's pr lyer even. However it s the first time in a good many years that I went to sleep without saying it." But Mary felt uncomfortable the few minutes she lav awake.

At that lime there was no church building here. Soon afterwards the Southern Methodist began a church 40x60 feet, weatherboarded, floored aud covered it aud found themselves unable to complete it. And as the land and a large part of the lumber was given on condition that they fin ish it ready for worship, they could secure no title. It was offered to the Baptist w ho declined and afterwards to the Presbyterians. In the mean time a Presbyterian church was or ganized by Mr. Gordon, and this sum mer liev. A. Enloe, another Evangel ist of St. John's Presbytery in Orange county, began regular monthly preacli- ing. Mr. Gordon advanced some $00 which was necessary to secure the house and a proper deed. Our church extension committee has voted $125 to assist iu finishing the building which was last week received, ihusallare encouraged and the way is clear to finish and dedicate within three or four weeks. Many citizens who could give nothing when uncertain as to its being finished now come forward and twill soon be nicely finished aud ready for use. Nothing succeeds like suscess. This is a good large and handsome build ing beautifully located, and the com munity feel proud 01 it. The Presbyterians are specially en couraged, and the community, which ' a m a ava I. a year ago knew little ot rresDyteri- anism, are in hearty sympatny witn their efforts. A. T. Pathetic Incidents at I seisin. In describing some of the scenes and incidents attending the excava tion of the dead and living at Ischia, a correspondent says: A boy of twelve had just been found, not hurt, but wandering among the ruins, looking for the spot where his home had been. I asked him whom he had lost. "They're all gone," lie said, "father and mother and everybody." Two young girls who had been buried for three days, said when they were dug out: "Ah, you do not know what it is to be buried in the dark for ten hours." They had no idea of the real time which had elapsed. One of the most touching incidents which came under my knowledge was that of a father distractedly urg ing on the work of the excavators on the spot where he had lost his little son. He as calling the child's name iu hoarse and trembling tones, when suddenly a little voice was heard from amid the broken masonry: "I am here, papa. Don't be afraid ; take courage."
