sion :
A bill to be entitled An Act to establish a Scale of

titled “Ad ordinance declaring what laws and ordi-
nances are in force, and for other purposes,” ratified
on the 18th day of October, A. D. 1865, itis
duty of the General Assembly to provide a
depreciation of the Confederate currency fi
time of its first lasue to the end of the war; and it is
further therein declared that “all executory contracts,
solvable in money, whether under seal or not, made
after the depreciation of said currency before the 1st
,day of May, 1866, and yet unfilled, (except official
bonds and penal bonds payable to the .State,) .shall be
deemed to have been made with the understanding
that they were solvable in money of the said curren
cy,” subject nevertheless to evidence of a different in
tent of the parties to the contract; therefore,
“Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the
State of Xorth Carolin.% and it is hereby enacted by
the authority of the same,” That the following scale

PROSPECTUS OF THE
^HTHEl^ORD STAR .
^ The Undersigned propose to publish, in the
tillage of Rutherfordton, a weekly Newspaper
called “The Rutherford Star.” ^
fr^i^^ It is our desire to make The Star a wel
come visitor to all those who feel an interest
in the prosperity and welfare of our country
as a whole, and the perpetuity of our institu
tions, as handed down to us by our noble an-
oesty, a Feder.al Republican Government.
Our people have hut lately emerged from a
gigantic civil war, waged hy and between
ISections of a once glorious Union, and more
desolating to our particular section, than any
thing that has ever happened on this contin
ent, and it is to he hoped, than ever will again.
While there is life there is hope, and not
withstanding the great changes wrought by
the late civil war, we shall encourage thepeo-
ple to honesty, industry and economy, we
shall take special pains to keep them posted
with all beneficial improvements of the age,

The worst diseases known to the human
race spring from c.avses so small as to al
most defy detection. The volumes of scien

the medical fraternity only go to prove aud
elaborate these facts.
Then guard yourselves while you may.
