MOUNT NORTH CAROLINA NEWS. STATE ITEMS OF IMPORTANCE GATH ERED FROM OUR MANY WIDE AWAKE EXCHANGES. Mr. E. S. Parker, Jr., of fin- ham, has bought the Burlington News and will conduct it hereafter. The Wilmington Messenger has just paid .'500 in settlement of the daniHgn suit, brought against that paper by pai tics accused of being implicated in tho Uoseboro express robbery. If it takes seven yeais for tho to bacco business to become lirolitable again in North Caroli.ia, the period to end January 1st, lSitlt, it will be too late for some of those engaged in that industry. The Afihevillo Cszotte says that Express Messenger Moore, of the Western Noith Carolina railroad, fell from his car near Hot Springs last Friday aftemioon and received serious, perhaps fatal, injuries. The newspapers of the State have all along managed to keep up and avoid making assignments. There are so few people that will credit a newfpaoer man that he finds it an impossibility to get hold of enough property to justify him in making h decent assignment. On last Monday Mr. James Hipp, living at Lanraglenn Mills became somewhat deranged over tho con dittou of his little son, who was hurt in the mill last week and at tempted to take his life by cutting his throat. He made a wound that may prove fatal. Shelby Aurora. The bill, which has passed the house, to give quick trials in capi tal cases, by allowing the governor to convene special ccurU instantly, is an excellent one.

When tho Western North Caro lina Railroad was pushed through the Uluo Ridge mountains twenty years ago, the construction was car ried on at both ends, from Old Fort, N. C, westward upon tho eastern side, and between the Swan nanoagap and Ashevillo upon the western sido. As tho work pro gressed an engine upon tho western sido became a necessity, and the line upon tho eastern side had only reached Henry's, a small station at the top of the pap. To suspend the work meant a long delay. An en gine must go out and the problem arose how to get it there over tho mountains. One of the light est en gines on tho lino was sent in us far as Henry's. From there to the rails on the other side of the gap it was three and a half miles, ana all the way up hill, 500 feet to tho milo. The track to tiio top was but rough ly graded. There wore bridges and culverts to build. It was decided to utilize the turnpike road. Uy means of short sections ot track, the sections being taken up after the en gine had passed them and carried . -:, i ' . -.-' - - forward to be replaced for further progress, it was regarded as possible to effect the aecent, As it was manifestly impossible for any friction-wheeled engine to carry itself up such a sharp grade, it would have to be dragged up by other means. A long line of oxen was tried, but the plan failed through the inability to obtain a uniform pull from the team. Theie whs plenty of power, but it could not be made to harmonize. Final ly the large crew of convicts, by whom the road was being built, was set to work. Ropes were run tor ward upon which some 200 men in strijied clothe-s were 6et to pulling. O'hers worked at the wheels with pinchbars, while others stood ready with blocks of wood to serve as wtdges behind the wheels, to hold eveiy inch of ground that was gain ed. Almost inch by iuch, "with a long puil, and a strong pull, aud a pull altogether,' this forty tons of dead engine was dragged up the mountain at the rate of a mile a week. Trains have been 6iiowed in, broken down and delayed so that the progress was slow, but it is doubtful if a complete engine was ever kept in motion day after day for three weeks at a slower rale t.f movement than one-sixth of a mile per day.
