About $100,000 subscription to the capital stock of the King Cotton Mill at Augusta has ieen secured m New York City. Gould and Huntington say that the railway construction of 1881 is not near so great as that to come in 1882. The South will be most prominently devel oped in this respect. The temperance apostle Murphy has procured 2,225 signers to the pledge in and around Franklin, Venango county, Pa. He has temporarily ruined the beer business in that quarter. The experiment of sending carrier pigeons from European steamers while crossing tne sea n as oeen tried, witn partial success. It was only the freak of a party of brokers, but it may lead to important results. There is a parrot at Fourth ayenne and Sevet.teenth street that addresses rapid passers-by in this matter: 'Hold on to your feet ; keep cool ; where are you going ? Go slow, go slow P When the pedestrian on his return walks slowly he hears something like this: "Doing better, ain't you? Ha, ha!

This may be.classed as high-proof enterprise. Colorada people say of General Pal mer that he can discover a pass in the mountains by turning his nose towards the Sierras. "If General Palmer had been about' when Noah stranded on Mount Ararat," exclaims a Denver pa per. ne would have cad a narrow gauge track laid to the front door of the Ark m three days and would have taken the whole manageriej to the plains below at a special rate. James W. Garfield has been discov ered a defaulter in his accounts to the amount of from $30,000 to $60,000 He says, "defalcation is a pret ty harsh name for it, ana "tne railroad men dont call it that." His "accounts are involved," "but the company" the New Central and Hudson River "will not lose a cent by 'Jimmy' Garfield." He is a relative of James A. Garfield, now of Washington, as he says, by way of Adam not otherwise, to the best of his knowledge and belief. Sample new England incident: "Two of the men overtook Mrs. Sullrvan a short distance from the house, and threw her to the eround, and. while one held her feet, the other pulled. , her clothes up over her head and smothfered her cries. White tnen came up witn a bucket of tar, and, while the little boy stoned the brutes to make them desist, poured the black stuff all over her bodv. afterwards puuinz down ner clothes, covering her head and face with it. Not satished with una, tney jumped upon her and kicked her until she was hair unconscious, wnen uiey left her groaning on the ground." Street Maskers Egged by Ladles, Omaha Bee. A couple of street mashers met with their just deserts on Saturday, last. A wo nigniy respeutauto yuuug uuubs were walking down uapitai avenue shortly after twilight unattended. They had not proceeded far when they noted a couple of young men following them. Both of the young fellows were gotton up in a regardless fashion, with immaculate shirt fronts and lavender pataloons. Both, no doubt, considered themselves the observed of all observ ers. Soon after the young ladies dis covered the real state of the qae they quietly dropped JntQ a grocery store and each purchased a couple of eggs. The walk was resumed, the mashers following and ogling until Masonic Hall was reacned. At inai point xne two fellows stepped up to the ladies, and, with many profound bows, asked them if they wanted to take a prome nade. Both ladies at once straighten ed up, and, without a word, each, select ed her man. Four eggs immediately flew with weU'direpted aim. Each of the masters gpt a moutn uai, aesiqes which the lavender trousers, the pride of ' their hearts, were bespattered be yond all hopes of repair, The affair happened to be witnessed by only a few people, bat the dignified young men re treated Jn vast disorder, to repair the wreck to theit stunning attire.

CHARLOTTE, N. C., SATURDAY, JULY 23, 1881. Serviceable Teeth. The babarousaa, a species of wild hog, has its upper canine teeth modified in a most singular way to serve as a protection to the eyes, as the animal forces its way thro' the dense under growth of the tropical forests; they rise almost vertically thro' the upper lip, and frequently curve backward so much as to pierce the skull. The beaver with his sharp, chisel-faced front teeth, will cut down and carry off trees as big as a man's thigh, gnawing the wood all round, but cutting it higher on one side so as to determine the direction it will fall. In one place on .the banks of the Missouri, the timber was completely penetrated for adistance of three acres, and in great part removed, although the trees were vvry numerous and of considerable siz S hard is the enamel of the beaver's Uxlli th;tL when fixed in a wooden handl it makes a very re spectable chisel, and, according to Sir John I.icli:nlsui, it is nst(i by the Northern 'Indiana to cut bone, and to shape 1 heir li i n tipped spears, etc. The incisor Le et J. of ... he agout i, another of the rodents, are usijil in lh same way by the Brazilian tiidians to fanhioii the blow tubes wiih which they bringdown small birds and monkey s. What the little beaver does for building mate rials, the gigantic megatherium appears to have done for food. This huge ex tinct sloth seems to have had for its pleasing task to uproot and tear down large forest trees for the purpose of feeding on the branches. The common snail sets forth to ravage our gardens equipped with one hundred and fifty rows of stout serrated teeth. The whole palate contidns about twenty-one thousand teeth, while a full-grown slug has over twenty-six thousand of these silibious spikes. The whelk has a ribbon-like tongue- contained in a probos cis, with which it bores holes in the shells of the molluscs which form its food. The tongue has strong sawlike teeth on the edges, with rows of finer ones between. In some molluscs the tongue resembles a -tesselated pave ment, with a tooth in the center of each lozenge-shaped compartment. The King: .Slam; and the. Washing ton monument. A correspondent of the Boston Her ald gives this account of it: The stone expected from the king of Siam to be placed in the Washington monument has arrived. The letter ac companying the stone states that it was excavated by his majesty's orders from the royal quarries in the Korat hills, distant about one hundred miles from the city of Bangkok. His majesty, during his youth, conceived a peculiar fondness for America and her institu tions, derived in great part from the instructions of our missionaries there, and assumed the title "George Wash ington." For many years prior to his elevatioa to the throne he was familiar ly addressed as "Prince George Wash ington." The kingJefttt optional vritb. his agents to have the inscription on the stone engraved in English or Siam ese. As it was found difficult to cor rectly engrave the Siamese characters, the English were adopted. The origi nal of tne inscription in the Siamese language is, however inclosed on a slip of paper. The full name and title of the royal donor is "His Majesty Krom Phia Ratcha Wang Borwang Satan Mongkong, Second Krug-of Siam." The stone is small, being about six inches by twelve, and it isof a yellowish brown color. The inscription says: "Present ed to the Washington Monument As sociation by his majesty the Second .rung or siam. Transportation of Frcbh FrultN, ' San Francisco Alta. A great deal of fruit is being shinned East from Sacramento, The amount is much larger than at this time last year. Among the shipments has been a car load of assorted fruit, put up in the Diet? packing, a rcently patented pro cess. The Suisun Republican says that the preservative agent is carbonized wheat bran, and that by it fresh fruit is preserved from decay, so that it can be shipped East by , slow freight and sold off as the demand is made for it, without being compelled to sacrifice it for fear of Josa.. .The car load shipped goes to Philadelphia. It contains grapes Elums, peaches, apricots, etc., and goes y fast freight, though hereafter It is the plan to ship by slow freight, as it will reduce the charges oyer one-half, or from $,100, to $.50Q a ear load to New York. If frttft can he packed in this easy and inexpensive manner, and pre served indefinitely and shipped any where, the business will develop won derfully. "Fresh peaches at Christmas and grapes at midwinter are very : al luring, and Mr. Dietzsays that they may be had by simply packing them in wheat bran reduced to charcoal, J mining- la Caldwell Ponnty. Lenoir Topic. The development of the mining in terests of Caldwell, to which we re ferred some time since, is still being pushed forward. There are three pros pecting parties now at work in the gold mining section of the county and each one of them seems so far to . have met with nothing but signs of success. An English company Is sinking shafts at Pax Hill, one from Philadelphia, has been at work on a new mine near Bar ber's churcbVand some New Yorkers are now investigating the Baker gold: mine. These mines are all Situated in a part of the county which has ai wayB furnished gold for the washing, and there is no doubt but that systematic, scientific mining will make this one of Caldwell's chief . resources, A slight index of the extent to which Dlacer mining is now oarried, is furnished by the amount of ."dust" bought bv one' firm in Lenoir who have ' on hand a little vial fall of gold dasfc, wprth $300, and collected within the lastmonth or two.
