We have received the Bulletin of the

interest iu this work to assume the light
task of reporting monthly on the sanita

.of Health Wc note that Dr. 1). N.

"Our 'County Fathers' have granted a

Some persons have called our attention
to the difference in the dates given by
different almanacs for the beginuing of
dog days, ilium's almanac reckons the
commencement on July 10th, while
Turner's ulmanaa reckons it on July
! , 9»d. The dog days was a period among
the anciouts of greatest heat in summer
so called because in the latitudes of the
Mediterranean Ocean this period corres
ponded with that in which the dog star
; rose at llic same time with the sun. The
I rising of the dog star is u very indefinite
phenomenon, and it does not now occur
till about August 10th, when the great
est heat of the season is over. The
almanacs reckon the dog days from July
Sltli to August 24th and sometimes
' from July 3rd to August llth.

Wo very briefly and imperfectly no
' ticed iu our last issuo the attack made
upwi Mr. Trogdcn of tlreensboro by a
i negio at Germanton July 4th. We
; copy the following account of this ou'
f rage from the Greensboro Patriot .
i *'A f/w minutes | rior to the departure
t of the excursion train from Germanton
last Monday, a drunken rowdy negro
j. known as Padd I lairston.passed through
a car where sotno ladies were seated and
was iudulgiug in some base and obscene
language about them, whereupon a white
man named l'roxler rebuked the villian
for his disrespectful couduct. 1 lairston
I became much enraged and fell upon his
I adversary aud was dealing him some
' blows with a stick when Mr. W. F.
' ]Trogden, of this city, proceeded to'jntcr
' i fere by parting them. At this juncture
'( iiairston turned -ipon Mr. Trogdon and
f | dealt liini two severe blows on tho head
,- ; with a loaded cane, inflicting a most
' dangerous wound and fracturing tbe
i skull. Mr. J, H. West, who was in an
. | other car oaptuied the negro, but while
f he wss administering to the wants and
' necessities of Mr. 'l'rogdon liairston
"'skipped. Upon tho arrival of tho
• Greensboro people to the scene consid-
I erablc indignation was excited and woe
II be unto tbe negro could they have laid
t bands on him."
( According to the latest advises wc
, liavo seen Mr Trogdon is believed to bo
in a fair way of recovering.

• | For nearly fifty years ore fiom around j
" i Datibury was hauled twelve to fifteen .
4 miles to Riser's forge on Town Fork;
s [ ur,d Fiosts' later Pepper's forgo on •
• j Ncalman creek whore it was worked into
1 ' bar iron and sold all over this section ofj
1 j tho Stato, as far south as Faycttcvillc j
'|nt 5 cents. Tho items that entered into t
the cost of making this iron were as
follows. 75 cents per day to the minerS
or $1 per ton, s•* for a 25 eoid pit of
I charcoal, $ I to $6 for hauling tho coal
to the forge. Most .if the iron was taken !
. out by the ton as the hands could gen- |
[ orally make so much more by the ton
, hauling on wagons r.volve to fifteen miles
. over a rough couutiy which consumed a
. whole day in the winter and fall months
, to make a trip from the bloomary to the
, mine and back. Two tons were a good I
, load for six horses oil such roads. The j
proprietor paiu the hammer-uian, who i
furnished his own stock taker, about teu
per cent of the iron lie made, at any
rates the hammer man got about 200
pounds of iron per week for his pay.
11l those days iron formed so to speak 1
a part of our currency, tho ore digger,
wagoner, wood chopper, coal burner, •
hammer-man, stock taker and every uuc 
connected with the business received 1
iron in pay for their work. Excepting i
what supplies the proprietor could fur- ,
nish were generally paid for iu iron ex
cept tho products of his farm. Tho
I j proprietors in most if not every instance
farmed during summer when the water
was too low to run the forgos. When !
s the land was not in a condition to work
■ the proprietor would throw one or two ,
■ thousand pounds of scrap ore iron plow
' moulds aud some sets of tiro on his ore
wagon drive to tonic neighboring village
' or country store utid barter off his load
: j for such articles as his hands n i^ht
• uced. The workmen when tho forge
II was iu blast would take their weeks pay '
ou their shoulders,hie away to some vil- i
lago or cross road store and barter it off 1
fur hats, shoes, etc., or to the nearest
. grogerv or still house and get their "llt
: tie l.rown jug" filled. So much for the
i quality of the ore. It must have yielded
t a goodi per cent or these old fellows '
'■ could not have kept up their works for
fifty years, mining, hauling, washing, and
workiug the ore into iron of the best
quality, which was sold at live cents.
■ j One hand at 75 cents without auy sssis
i lance and without good tools I'rcqucntly
mined aud put ou the ground two or
three tons of ore per day.
Then as to quantity no one will want
J bettor evidence of the number of places 1
ill which it is found than to know that |
miners who wore taking out ore by the .
r ton would leave a vein 4, 6 or 8 foot 
, wide not more than 20 or 30 foet from
the surface and go onto the next ridge i
to find another jus*, because a little water 1
would accumulate in tho first during .
, Saturday night, Sunday aud Sunday
. night. It is not theory nor supposition
. that wc have iron ore hero of good qual
ity, easy to get at, and very abundant
It was worked into bat iron for near one :
r hundred years and was only abandoned '
when railroads aud rolling mills brought 1 1
• that kind of iron almost to our doors for 1 '
- less money than hammered charcoal iron
■ can can bo made, that tho forges or'
i blooms stopped work, tens of thousands i
- of pounds of hammered iron was mauu
• factured at this place since the war and
before the railroad was built to Win
» Btoii. The railroad to Winston was just
> close enough to kill this industry, wo
- ho| c the road through the county now
, will be just closo cii'iugh to make it
i alive and that capitalists will look and
" see what wo lave.
