Reporter and Post. JEntered uI the PmJmyt/, X. \, I'ost-ojficr w* Srromi IViim Matter. PAN 11 itV, N. \ May :;l, 188*. A IE*HON FOR XOKTU CAROLINA. Ws flunk wt can km in the marvel lous growth of Texa-r, anil the means by j wliieh it has been promoted, a lesson of infinite value to other Soutlu-rn States! and especially to North Carolina—a State which, for purposes of development is as new as Texas. The obvious expla nation of the extraordinary progress of Ten* is that it has pursued a liberal policy in respout to railroads, in the con struction ot which its people have had the good sense to recognize their only chance to keep up with the precession. j Between IST- and INS 2, the ktate jjain *d 1,175,000 in population: increased' its crop of cereals 28,U)0,000 bushels . its crop of cotton, 1,200,000 bales, and added $20,000,000 to its exports, while its imfiorts increased only $3,000,000'. I A million poopla now intutliit the oountry 1 tributary to the Texas Pacific, and New Orleans Pacific rsilroads, owning taxable property to the amount of $.100,000,000. A great agriuultural region, which, two years ago was almost without a human habitation, is now dotted with farms and saw-UiilN and villages aud cities and is, above all, the home of a prosper ous people. Such progress has no pre- | cedent in history—liut a railroad has' been the cause of it all. North Carolina lias many advantages over Texas. It has a more healthful 1 ciiiuate, a greater variety of products, 1 greater mineral reseouroes, vastly nope-1 nor facilities for maiiufactiiriiii; enter prises of every kind, more good harbors.' It is within a few hours 1 journey by rail |rom the great aommcrcial cities of the west, and is nearer to the trada coot res of tne North-west than is any part ol; Texas.—lt might surpass Tuxas, if it would only heed the lesson taught by that wonderful State. Let us strain every nerve to secure railroads. Now is the time to begin the work of developing our State : aud if we do our duty in that regard, we may expect a 1 fpaedy and profitable return for our la bor. It is in the power of the press to 1 accomplish luuoh. and at this juncture. ' every journalist should aim to advertise 1 the rescources of his immediate section 1 to the utmost. The editor of the Dal- j /u« Herald did more to insure the devel- | opment of Northern Texas, than all thej scrambling, worthless deuingognos of that section put together. The oity of, Pallas owes its greatness to editor Sevindclls, and the railroad uion whom lie induced to look to that quarter for investments. For our part, we shall continue 10 tvoik for the material ad vancement of Stokes county, and the country along the line of railways which We have boeu so zealously advocating. In the end, wo are sure of success, and the realization of our fondest hopes in tllis direction. A rulltil'ul Kuifiltcor, The editor of the Richmond ('Aridutn Advocate gives the following account of the jumping of au engine into Now Kiver when he was aboard of the train last Week : At 4 o'clock in tlio morning whon pear Quiunimout, in West Virginia, o'ur train struck a land-slide. The road-bed at that point is under high cliffs and above the Now River, clinging on to the aide of the mountain, and above the strong, swift stream. The engineer saw the great bank of mud, shrubs aud racks, which had fallen from above across the track only a few yards ahead. He put on the air-brakes and reversed the machine, but the locomotive plowed through the obstruction, left the rails, plunged down the precipice, turned three sunnnorsaults, and wont to the bot tom of the river. * * The (ircuian after several revolutions with the engine,! found himself in the water unhurt.

Mules on a Farm. It has always been a mystery to us i that farmers throngliout the West have such a repugnance to working mules ou the farm. They do not require half the care that horses do, aud can do as much 1 1 work with iialf of the food required for I horses to keep them iu good condition. I They are as kind and gentle as horses, j the viciousncss that they were so fully possessed of a score or two of years ago ' has disappeared. This cau be account-: l ed for tlit breeding from American in stead of Spanish Jacks, and from the kind treatment they receive instead of , the kicks aud abuse whieli tliev were i subject to wheu they were not nearly at plenty aud popular as they are now We kuow of a large farmer who has scv •■ral teams about equally divided between | horses and mules. He iuforius us thati the uiulcs are much cheaper than tlio : horses, that he will sell all the latter cx | ccpt one span, which he will retain for j road purposes. lie considers the work of the mules quite as valuable as that 1 of the horses, and the) are not so liable !to accidents and sickness. They are more hardy and are capable of enduring a gr*«t deal more fatigue, and when well broke to harness they are as true as horses, hardly ever balking. When we j consider the high price of oats, corn and 1 other food that is necessarily consumed \ horses, so that they can be kept in good working order, we can not help thinking | that it is much more economical to re tain mules than farm lioises. At feast it would bo a good plan for every farm er to koep one span of good mules to help out with the work.— Minneapolis Tr lb u nr.

ONIONS FOB POULTRY. —It is a fact which owners and keepers of poultry are 'conversant with, that the occasional use of onions mixed with tho food, is a safe guard to health, where they are fed to I poultry onec or twice a week. I fear j the use of it is not as prevalent among poultry keepers as its valuable qualities warrant. It is not a cure-all, after dis- j case has once begun, but a preventive of | ! the first approaches. Fowls will readily partake of onions if thoy won sliced and mixed with othor food, and a small portion of pepper is added. If scalded I with tho otlier food they will be found to 1 answer a muob better purpose. Fowls are much more tender and delicate when laying than at other times. Tbey are not only more liable to constant j colds, but frequently suffer from a bad I or irregular system of feeding. The ■ tone and strength must be kept up or the j working organs are injured. The I'nue Fear* Ya!Ulu Val ley li K In the last issue of tho Rcnnettsville .Monitor we liud an article from which ! we make the following extracts : | Whether or not wo shall have a j railroad to llcnnettsvillo, now lies with ■ our people.

At the uicctiugat Greensboro on the 9th, of | directors, contracts were made for steel ! rails which will lay one hundred miles of track, and a hundred tonsaro to be de livered in Wilmington in thirty days! | from date of coutract.

It may be noted here that the contract 1 ' calls for the delivery of not ouo bun-' | drcd, but one thousand tous of steel rails per mouth.

A Word iii lioj'H. j Come, boys, and listen a few moments to your uncle. You have now arrived I at an age when you begin to think about j doing something for yourselves. The' first pieco of advice I have for you is to ' j do everything will which you undertake. S There is but little danger of your being | j too particular in this respect. A boy who is carcbil to draw a straight line j on his slate, will be very likely to mako ! ! a straight lino through life. There is J ; no position in life in which you will not j be called upon to be as exact as possible.

I Visit the ship-yard, and the man with | | the broad-axe must learn to how on a j j line, or bo dismissed. You think of be ing a clerk. Well, remcmbor that a mistake there is a little less than a crimo. i I never saw a man who was very parti- j | cular about his affairs that was not sue- j i oossful. How exact is a military officer I lin command of a body of men.

If Uis the disposition to avoid all solid improvement, and take up with subjects that require no thought, and which serve as mere warfare with godi- | noss, our portion will be that of the un- ' I godly.

A young farmer was , bitten by a mad dog, and remedies wero immediately applied to the wound. Can- j terization was resorted to, an.l thero! was every reason to believe that the virus had not entered the victimV sys tem. When the accident occurred the jounguian was about to marry, but in consequence of tho untoward occurrence : tho ceremony was postponed for three mouths, when the medical nun who were consulted on the case gave it as their unanimous opinion that there was not the slightest ground for apprehending | aDy danger form the bita The marriage took plaoe on tho farm nnd was cele brated with the customary festivities. After the uuptial supper was over tho I bridegroom appeared to be seized with a 1 tit of melancholy. One of love's capri ces said somebody. After supper canio I the ball, and when this was at its height | the newly-wedded oouple withdrew from | the festive scene and retired to their apartmcut. .Aout an hour afterwards the house resounded with ferocious cries intermin gled with shrieks and groans. As soon as the guests had recovered front stupe faction, they started in the direction of j the cries. They proceeded from the | nuptial chamber. The door was burst i open aud a horrible spcctnble presented itself. On the floor lay the young bride in a pool of blood. She still breathed, but her body was torn and bitten as if she had beeu seized by a tiger. In a i corner of the room was the bride-grooin covered with blood and foaming at the mouth, scratching, biting and tearing away at tho wall aud furniture. With a sudden bound he sprang like a tiger | upon the invaders of bis lair, and he would have made one or more victims had not a brother of the dying bride sent a bullet crashing through the mad man's brain.— .Montevideo Razon. lion I'oKtnge Stamps are Made. In printing, steel plates are used, on | which two hundred stamps arc engraved. Two men are kept hard at work cover ing them with the colored inks and pas sing tkein to a man and girl, who are equally busy at punting them with large rolling hand presses. Tbreo of these squads arc employed all the time, though ton of these presses can be put in use in case of necessity. After the small sheets I of paper upon which the 200 stamps are , engraved have dried enough, they aro sent into uuother room nnd gummed. | The gum used for this purpose is pe culiar composition made of tho powder of dried potatoes and other vegetables mixed with water, which is belter than | any other material, for instance, gum ■ arubic, which crncks he paper badly. | This paper is also of a peculiar texture, somewhat similar to that used for bank notes. After having been again dried, j this time on little racks, which arc fan ned by steam power about an hour, Ooy ! are put in between sheets of pasteboard I and pressed in hydraulic presses capable ;j of applying a weight of two thousand ' tons. : The next thing is to cut the sheets ! in half ; each sheet of course, when cut j II contains 100 stamp. This is done by a girl with a large pair of shears, cut ting by hand boing prefored to that of machinery, which method would des ; troy too many stamps. Then they are passed to other squads, who, in as many I operations, perforata the sheets between . | the stamps. Next they are pressed once : mora, and then packed and labeled aud j stowed away in another room, prepara | tory to being put in mail bags for dis | patching to fulfill orders, j If a single stamp is torn or in any way i multilated, the whole sheet of two bun ! drcd is burned; about five hundred j thousand are burned every week from | this cause. Fur the past 20 years not a single sheet has been lost, such care 1 Ihm boen token ie counting them. 1 Hir ing tho progress of manufacturing the | sheets aro counted eleven times.—Ut opian .Monthly. TUe Tobacco Crop. | From every section somes the dis tressing news of the fearful havoc of the j Hies ou tha tobacco plants. In traveling j through portions of Orange, Person and j Caswell counties lastweek, we did not 1 sej a single plant set out, nor but few plants large enough to transplant. Last year by this time, the farmers were j more than half through setting out their | crops, and thoy had all finished by the' first of Juue. We find in somo ecctons there arc plenty of plants while in oth- j • ers there are but few. If the seasons arc as favorable as the farmers could wish there can be but little over one half a crop planted and that will be from four to six weeks late. Every iudic- 1 ation now points to a very late and' ! short orop. This will bo a dreadful i ; calamity upon our people, with the ; orop two years ago frost bitten and 1 this year tbey will plant but litile over ' half tho usual crop, and that will ucccs- ; jSarily be of a very inferior quality as i our finest yellow tobaco is curod enrly in the fall.
