Whnt is known us the Houston
place, on the south west of town
omprising something over one hun
dred acres, was divided into three
parcels, ami changed hands yester
day. Greene street continues to im

houses built by Mr. Sikct and Mr.
Foust have been closed in and paint
ed. They both appear to be well
built, and will be redy for occupan

On such a morning as we have
had to day the hammers ol carpen
ters can be heard at a great distance
as they drive up nails in the roofs and
sides of buildings here ard yonder.
The effect is fine to one who with
draws to a quiet spot on the suburbs
and listens quietly lor ten minutes.
Now and then he will bear the crow
ing of chanticleer in the distance, or
some autumn bird will begin to sing
of the departing summer. Even the
cawing of the crow, as he flies across
the distant forest, gives a welcome
sound by way of variety, and in the
dew-laden -sedge the feeble death
song of innumerable insects awakens
thoughts that are peculiar to the sea
son.
The Greensboro Gas Company
are just now very busy in building a
new and complete bench of retorts ol
3's. In taking out tbe retorts there
were found to be certain hard carbon
ized formations in cylindrical shape
which would be objects of curiosity
to those who are strsngersto such
things. This improvement at the gas
works is demanded by the re:ent ex
tension of the Company's mains, and
the recent order of the city for 3a
new lamps on the streets, together
with the number of new houses into
which gas is to be introduced half
dozen such houses making applica
tion within a few days past. This
winter the Company's pipes will en
ter the new United States building,
making a large addition to the pres
ent consumption of gas. The Com
pany bas already on hand about 300
tons of coal , from the coal fields of
Chatham county, and will Je able to
supply all demands for gas. .
A ILlhd Case. We hear to-day of
an incident occurring in railroad cir
cles which is really to be regretted. .
Capt. Jake Hicks, daring the war,
was stationary engineer at Company
Shops, and was the only man that
stood bis ground at the period of the
surrender when the two hostile armies
were confronting each other, and there
was a general dispersion of publio and
railroad officials. Capt, Hicks was at
that time sole manager of all trains and
the ! guardian of the company's inter
estsL .: fiinoe then be has been running
for I the Richmond and . Danville rail- 1
road, making in the last twelve months
48.000 mites, without causing a scratch
1 1 ,
so any ipassenger or emplpyee.Qoite i
recently be has been honorably dia-1
charged, on account of the fact; as we i
learn, that Captain Hicks,' for lack of
early opportunities, was unable to read
the written orders of the company, ac:
cording to a law governing engineers.
This result, while it is by the opera-
tion of a wholesome law,! which the
public is bound to approve, if it does
not demand, seems unfortunate when
it bears upon so faithful a man, and we
could wish that some remedy might be
found, if it were practicable. 1 '
