Th t.imhp.red wealth of North Caro lino ha not. been developed, and no ef fort worthy of the name has been made to utilize the product of the forests. ThAr are fiftv thousand square miles of territory in the State covered by forests which have scarcely been touch ed by xnE woodman's axe, Small shipments of lumber are made to Philadelphia, New York, Baltimore, iioston, ana occasiouiiiy uu mo coi Tndies. but no large mills have been es tablished, no furniture factories are m operation, and tno principal consump tion of the timber is in the construction of railroads and in supplying the neces sary limited local aemana. m tne eas tern part of the State the trade in cy press shingles is immense, and lately the exportation has begun of walnut inmhr to forieen countries from Ashe- ville. in Buncombe county. This busi ness is yet in its infancy, but it is the beginning of a large and lucrative in dustry. Of the specimens of native woods on exhibition there are 112 dis tinct specimens, embracing all the com moner varieties and the ornamental woods. In "Western North Carolina there are immense belts of cherry, and the supply of black and white walnut is practically unlimited. The western walnut which has heretofore held the market has been largely exhausted and now commands high prices, thus afford ing ready sale to the large supply in this new field. Of the different kinds of woods most valuable in the arts in the United States, there are 22 species of oak, 19 of which are found in North Carolina and so on, as follows: United States.

In Western North Carolina there are immense bodies of white pine timter that have not been touched. The ex tension of the Western North Carolina Kailroad now being built, particularly the Ducktown branch, the Yadkin Val ley Road, and the road from the East Tennessee line to the Cranberry works are now in process of construction, and numerous other projected lines will throw this country open and make a market for the timber for which there is now no demand. The price per acre for the timbered lands in the State ranges from five to fifteen dollars no price has been fixed on them as timber- In Eastern North Carolina there is an almost inexhaustible SUPPLY OF PITCH PINE, the belt of country extending from Vir ginia to the South Carolina border and averaging at least from sixty to seventy miles in width. In the coast country there are large quantities of cypress which are so sur rounded by swamps as to do compara tively inaccessible. The swamps are susceptible of drainage, however, but this can only be accomplished by asso ciated effort and the investment of large capital. The cypress timber ex tends along the whole coast and for many miles into the interior. It is -t m 1 A . 11 Al wortny or special note mac an me woods of the State can be highly pol ished. THE MINERAL WEALTH of North Carolina is unbounded, and as shown by the specimens on exhibi tion of more varied richness than that of any other Southern State. Minerals exist in the greatest quantities from the simply useful to the form ox pre cious eems. Of the useful copper and iron there are valuable deposits all over abound in large deposits. The kaolin occurs in many of the middle counties, but the finest quality, as white as snow and entirely free from all sand or grit, in found in. Macon county in the ex treme southwestern part of the State. It lies superficially, and can be worked at inconsiderable cost Bed clays for making brick and light colored varie ties for the manufacture of pipes and coarse pottery are found in the central part of the State and in the Piedmont country. The minerals peculiar to the State are corundum and mica, and both of which exist in large quanties. The richest deposits of corundum ;are f.nnm) tr XXanrun iniintv noar . EVanlr- liri, and in Clay county, on Buck creek, and elsewhere in similar quanties. THE MICA MINES .." are in Mitchell county, and yield re markably fine specimens. There are now found shafts in this county that were sunk before the white man ever came to this country. How the shafts came there no one knows but trees have been removed from the debris covering their mouths which indicated centuries of growth. It is supposed by some that the aboriginal workers of the mines carried, on a great traffic with the inhabitants of the Mississippi val ley, the interpreter of the mystery be ing able in this way only to account for the presence of mica in the Indian mounds which are found in tbe Missis sippi valley. However this may be, it is a singular fact that the ancient shafts to this day indicate the best veins of mica and yield the finest product. In mica and corundum Western North Carolina now forms the storehouse of the world. In the southwestern part of the State now being opened up by two lines of railroad there are large quantities of . THE FINEST MARBLE, of varied colors and susceptible of the highest oolisb. Specimens are on exni- bitioh, the most striking of which is a beautiful flesh colored variety, which would be especially suited to statuary. There are large quanties of the best va ries of building stones, gray and brown sandstone in the central and western portions of the State. -The quarries have not been largely worked. The new Federal buildings at Ral eigh are built of Rowan county gran ite, which, in addition to its building qualities, will take the highest ana most durable polish, the sharpest lines being easily traced upon it with a chisel.

Among the eres most largely worked in North Carolina are the gold ores, some rich specimens of which are on exhibition. Their existence has long Deen known, and the gold-bearing belt covers almost two-thirds of the State, extending from .Franklin county, in Eastern North Carolina, entirely across to the western boundary of the State. The mines most extensively worked are situated in Mecklenburg, Rowan, Ca barrus and Gaston counties. Of late a number of mines have been , BOUGHT BY NORTHERN CAPITALISTS, who are introducing improved machin ery and operating "with encouraging re sults. Before the war gold mining was confined almost exclusively .to the placer deposits and with clumsy appliances.- The methods have been entirely changed, and the vein mines!! ar& now worked with great profit. It is estima ted that since the North Carolina piines were opened they haye yielded at least $12,000,000, ; ''::;r;"'- Coal is found in three localities in the State. .Extensive beds of bituminous coal are situated in Chatham :county, about forty miles:: from Raleigh. It contains more , or, less sulphur, but, when the beds are more fully explored, it is expected that , the coal will h found in a much purer form. The principal mines have lately passed into the hands of a company of Northern capitalists, who are moving down their machinery and preparing to work the beds on a large s scale.
