for the exhibit of the Piedmont Air
mi? at tne -A-tlanta Exposition.
- There are 31 specimens of iron ore
and one of manganese, the latter from
Catawba county. Gaston and Lincoln
counties, and York county, S. C furn
ish some very rich specimens. The
black band ore from Chatham, found
in connection with coal, which is very
profitable when found sufficiently free
from phosphorus, was also represented.
Prof. Hanna stated that he had not
had time to make the test for phospho
rus in the specimens he had. This ore be
ing quite uncertain, the beds of it in
Chatham had not yet been fully de
veloped. Among the iron ores, the re
porter was surprised to find none from
the Cranberry deposits, the richest in
the State, or the United States, for that
matter. Bat Prof. Hanna explained
that a full exhibit of this ore would be
made by the Agricultural Department.
;Yoa .see," he paid, "this collection
being for the Piedmont Air-Line, It is
taken mostly from the central part of
the State. I think I have a much bet
ter exhibit of the ores, both gold, cop
per and iron of this section than the
department.
The reporter noted among the gold
ores very rich specimens from the
Wilson and the Black mines, both in
Mecklenburg. That from the latter
assayed at $500 per ton. A prominent
specimen was a large lump of cement
gravel from the Prince mine in Polk
county, owned and worked by Mr. W.
R. Cochrane, of this city. Ayeryrichsul
phuret from the Rudisill mine, running
$215 per ton, and a handsome copper
and iron sulpburet from Gold Hill were
displayed. There were also lean low
grade oxides and sulphurets from the
Caledonia in Gaston; limestones and
heavy sulphurets from the Kingis
Mountain: slate ore from the Wash
ington and Howie in Union and sul
phurets from the Halle In Lancaster,
S. C. From the Fairis in Mecklenburg
are specimens ranging from decom
posed brown ores to heavy compact
sulphurets of iron and copper. From
the Brawley, also in this county, was a
fine specimen of auriferous quartz,
showing-free gold: also feldspathic ore
from the Crowell,in Stanly; There was
a specimen of quartzose ore from the
Hamilton, near Wadesboro, found in
the red sand-stone, in which formation
it is extremely rare txTfind any indica
tion of gold. From the. Clark mine
near the city were some brown ores and
heavy sulphurets, and from the Hen
derson in this county some rich and
nearly pure brown ore.
Among the copper ores were speci
mens from the "Cathey;" a very fine
green carbonate from the Bodgers
both Mecklenburg mines; also speci
mens from the Phoenix in Cabarrus.
The North Carolina copper ores, the
Professor states, are generally very
lean in gold.
Some fine brown ores from the
Dunn mine near the city were notice
able.
There were lead ores from Cabarrus
and from the Moore mine on the: line
of Union and Mecklenburg.
There were also specimens of silver
lead ore from the Silver Hill mine in
Davidson county. I
Prof. Hanna says that about , one
half the mines from which these speci
mens are taken are now being actively
worked.
VNDEK THE WHEELS.
A Colored Man Fatally Crubed at Ibe
Railroad Creanlngr on Trron Street
Isam Williamson, Jr., colored, in
jumping from the Charlotte, Columbia
and Augusta passenger tram, at tne
Tryon street crossing, as the train left
the city yesterday afternoon, slipped
and fell under the wheels. His right
leg was cut off af ew inches below- the
knee and hung by the skin and the
lacerated muscles of the leg. The left
foot was also run over and badly mash
ed. The back showed severe contu
sions as though it had been caught and
pinched by the wheels. The head was
.also badly cut but the skull was not
fractured. He was at once taken In a
cart to his house in the second ward
and medical assistance summoned. Dr.
Thos. Moore found him in a serious
state of physical shock and decided at
once that the leg would have to be am
putated. The skin was torn away ior
some inches above the knee and the
muscles and skin below the knee were
in such a condition as to force amputa
tion just at the junction of the lower
and middle thirds of the thigh. The
operation was performed by Dr. Moore,
assisted by Dr. Bratton. After ampu
tation the physicians entertained slight
hopes of recovery; the patient after
suffering greatly died at 7 o'clock. The
accident occurred about 2 o'clock.
There were no eve witnesses to the
accident, but the deceased stated before
he died that he was not quite sure but
that some one pushed him as he stood
on the lower step of the car from which
he slipped, lie did not insist upon it
thoueh. and it was probably simply an
imaginary resentment.
The deceased was aoout 21 years 01a
and had a very good reputation as a
working man. He has been living in
Charlotte s,ince the war.

Dlocosaed hj the Chief' of the Weather
Boreas at WMUngt in, D..C
During the recent drought, and when
everybody was discussing the probable
effect of the absence of .rain upon the
growing crops the following letter, was
addressed to the Chief, . of the Signal
Service at Washington, The reply, was
not received until yesterday .and is only-
published now because it goes some
what into the science of the subject :
, Charlotte, N. C, Aug. 22, 1881.
i9en. W. B. Eazen, Chief Signal Dep't,
Washington, D. U. ; .. ,
Deab Sib We have had barely more
th an a sprinkle of rain in Charlotte
sin ce the 27th day of last April nearly
four months. It occurs to me that you
might be able to assign some scientific
reason for the long and continued, un
precedented drought which would be
interesting to the readers of ThbOb
skbvkr. will you do me the kindness
to give me such facts as are in posses
sion of your office in regard to the rea
son, tne effects and possible continu
ance of the drought?
I am, sir, very respectfully,
Chas. R. Jones,
Editor Observer.
Mr. Chas. R. Jones, Editor Charlotte
. Observer, Charlotte, N. C:
. Sib In reply to your communication
of August 22nd, .Ihaye .the honor to
say t that proper elucidation of this
subject cannot be hoped for until the
observations made during the past sum
mer throughout the world have been
brought together into proper shape for
study, as It is evident that the unusual
season experienced throughout the
eastern portion of the continent is but
one feature in the general distribution
over the globe of wind, temperature,
rain, etc The international map of the
Northern hemisphere will, for the past
summer, be made up and published one
year after date, when the explanation
that you desire will become practica
ble. The "Monthly Weather Review,"
showing the conditions prevailing over
the United States is published regular
ly during the following month, and af
fords a basis for some generalizations.
I send you herewith the Reviews for
June and July, and that for August
will soon follow. You will perceive
that there have been but few regions
east of the Rocky Mountains that have
not experienced tempera tun a above
the average and rainfalls below, as
compared with the normal values of
years past. ' . .. ; J
With regard to your own station I
would call your attention to the table
given in the accompanying memoran
dum, from which you will see that al
though the individual rainfalls were
small, yet they have .been quite as fre
quent as usual, and the rains of May
21st, 29th, Slst; June 24th, 29th ; July
12tb, 15tn, I7tb, 22nd, and August 7tn,
seem to me hardly in accordance with
your complaint, tnat "we nave had
barely more than a sprinkle of rain in
Charlotte since the 27th day of last
April."
Among the causes to which such ex
tended dry and heated terms nave been
attributed, it has hitherto, I believe,
never been possible to select any par
ticular one as specially operative, we
know, of course, in general, that to pro
duce heavy rains over extensive areas
great masses of moist air must be
cooled down in tne upper regions 01
the atmosphere, and consequently dur
ing the past season there must have
been either a deficiency in the atmos
pheric moisture, or an inadequate de
gree of cooling. Nothing has as yet
come to our knowledge to indicate that
there has been a deficiency of moisture
in the atmosphere, so that we are at
present led to examine the other alter
native. The cooling of large
masses of air is usually effected
either by radiation at night or by
expansion sucn as taaes place wnen
the air is forced up to considerable
heights above the earth's surface. This
former process usually gives rise to fog
at the surface of the earth or to a layer
of haze in the upper regions and: at
night it frequently powerfully co-operates
with the second cause, viz: expan
sion. This latter appears to be in a
great majority of cases the efficient
cause or tne iormauon . 01 cioua ana
rain. Now such expansion: js general-
v the consequence of the uplifting of a
mass of air into higher regions - where
the barometric pressure is less than at
the surface of the earth: and such uplift
implies either that the lower air is ab
normally light and buoyant with re
ference to that above it, or else that
some extraneous cause, such as the
wind, is operating to push the lower,
air un over the mountains, plateaux or
other obstacles.
On the other hand the cooling due to
expansion may be partially or even
wholly counteracted if, after the ascen
sion and expansion of the air, it rapidly
receives by radiation from the sun or
atmosphere, an unusual amount of heat.
This latter, nowever, is a contingency
not likely to occur often and although
the rapid increase in the solar radia
tion that attends the increased number
of solar spots has been suggested as a
cause of such recurring arougnts, yet
this hvnothesis cannot as yet be con
sidered to be a theory generally accept
ed by meteorologists. ... V:
Again, tne extensive iorest nres nave
thrown into the atmosphere an im
mense cloud of drv.smokey haze wtucn
has undoubtedly in some .regions tend
ed strongly to counteract the formation
of cloud and rain, but this has affected
only the latter portion of tne season
and a small fraction of the country ,
we are taererore now lei oeawine
the nuestion whether the distribution
of pressure and winds has'ben su'ch as
to hinder the formation, of those gener
al ascending Currents that usually at
tend extended rams, a question tnat, as
I have before said, will not; admit of a
satisfactory- solution until the; reports
of observations for the past seaspn
throughout the world can be -properly
charted and studied; r - , '
rtegrettmg tnat it is noe possible to
accede to your request by offering you
a well developed tneory, and one gen
erally accepted by meteorelpgiats. .in
the absence, and by authority of lien.
