This vein has not been worked for twenty years, but the facts set forth can be fully shown. Various other veins have been worked, and within the past two years very large deposits of Iron ore have been dis covered at other points. Within the past eighteen months, however, the owners have discovered de notata of ore In Crowder's Mountain, (nve veins oi Iron ore, are exposed), which were unknown be fore, and which will furnish an amount of good ore, easily worked and above water, that must make it one of the most deslraoie iron properties to be found. They have discovered on the pinnacle of this mountain, which Is 1000 feet above the level land, 2200 feet above the sea level, a vein of ore eight feet wide, which crops out at various points from the top to the bottom of the mountain, show ing In one Dlace about 20 feet of solid vein.

In addition to this four other vein have been found on this mountain. The ore Is a mottled gray ore. showing on analysis from 49 to 65 per cent, of metallic Iron, with a small amount of titanic acid, and without any sul phur or phosphorus. The quantity of ore in this mountain Is simply lnexnaustioie and or good aualltv, Beside Crowder's Mountain the owners possess King's Mountain, for about seven miles, whose Binnacle is the highest point f land from Rich mond to Atlanta, except ML Airy, in Georgia, and they have reason to believe this mountain is full of ore also.

A number of Republican journals in the North, and prominent Repub licans identified with the reform movement, treely denounce the nom ination of Blaine and Logan as "an insult to the conscience" of the coun try, and an open invitation to the defeat of the Republican party. The New York Times, New York Post, New York Herald, German Staats Zeitung, Boston Advertiser, Boston Herald, Buffalo (N. Y.) Express, Springfield Republican are plainly pronounced in opposition to it, and urge a united effort upon the part of independent voters and reform Re publicans to defeat the ticket. These represent the element outside of the machine,and occupy a higher plane than the mere partisan who seeks only partisan success regardless of methods or men. The politician whose politics is the trade by whioh he earns his bread and butter will endorse and throw up his hat for any successful man or any platform. however unfit the one may be, or absurd, contradictory, insincere or unmeaning the other. Having self in view, they work for party success, because party success means profit to them. To this extent their patriotism goes, no farther. There is, however, in this country a class of men who rise above mere party, and who sus tain party from a conscientious ani patriotic standpoint. This class of men are numerous enough, too, if organized and brought to the polls, to decide the fate of parties. It was that element which, in the last State elections, overthrew the machine in New York, Pennsylvania and other States, and elected an overwhelming majority of Democrats to the 48th Congress. It holds the balance of power, and when it so resolves holds victory in its hands, and can say what party or set of men shall or shall not rule. The representatives of this element were completely crowded to the wall m tne (jmcago convention, tneir voices were but as a whisper in a whirlwind, their protests unheeded, and the candidates of their choice either ignored or contemptuously sneered at. They labored for a cause, a principle, they were scouted ; they hoped for candidates the country could accept with respect, and got candidates forced upon them -vfrho were the embodiment of all that is repulsive in politics. No wonder they feel hggrieved, hurt, rebellious. This dissatisfaction may mean much, it may result in nothing. If the men who give present expression to it are in cold earnest, mean what they say, and are determined to the end, it means overwhelming defeat to the Chicago ticket. In their action they will doubtless be controlled by the course pursued by the National Dem ocratic convention and the nomina tions made by it. If that course be wise and conservative, and the nomi nations such as to cotnmand popular following and respect, they can also command the adhesion of this reform element, which will gladly ' turn to them as the hope of defeating the ticket they abhor. This does not mean that the Democratic party must m&ke toy surrender or go outside of its own organization for a-candidate but only that it take up one of its representative men, f character spot less, and of integrity unquestionable, free from disreputable alliances, with record so sound and. pure that in the full blaze of sunlight it may defy attack. Such men will go into the November contest not .only ; with a solid Democracy behind them, but also with the support of the better element of the reform Republicans, who repudiate the BJaine-Logatlck et. and that means victory for the Democracy. 1 ' : During the year 1883 the police and health authorities of 'Washington jked ; up 113 abandoned, infants.

The work is done in a hias- terly manner, and the interior or the old church presents a very handsome appearance. The most elaborate part of the worK is on the ceuing ana j m the recess in rear of the pulpit. In the latter place, m large German text letters, is a verse from the Bible: I will Liove Thee, U Liord, my strength." The old organ was hot forgotten, and isbeautifullyfrescoed. It will be some time yet before servi ces will be held in the church as the seats are to be re-painted. They will be made a walnut color all over in place of the white that they are npw. When the whole is completed, tne interior of the Moravian church in Salem will be simply beautiful. The chapel adjoining the church was also frescoed in a similar manner. C. A. Hege, of the .

A IlOiHE INSTITUTION. A. Successful North Carolina College. ttusiness Greensboro, N. C. June 7th, 1884. To the Editor of The OsaEBvAi. I wish through your paper to in form the people of this State of one or the distinguishing features of this place. In this city is located the only college in North Carolina that is wholly devoted to the practical business training of young men and women. Eighteen months ago Prof. G. M. Smithdeal started here the Smithdeal Practical Business College. For a while he labored under many difficulties and disappointments, but by his indefatigable energy and un tiring zeal, the college is now one of the permanent institutions ef the State. The need of a more practical and thorough business training than our academies and colleges afford has long been felt throughout the South. Hundreds of our young men go North annually to expensive and far distant business colleges; hundreds more would go had they the means to aeiray the expenses. Kormerlv they went because there was . no in stitution in the State that offered facilities for procuring this kind of instruction. I am happy to say the Old North State now has a business college which is not only educating her own sons and fitting them for any department of business, but is extending her influence to her sister States. While in Greensboro I have often visited the college, and I have seen there students from Virginia. South Carolina, New York and Ger many. The college now offers facili ties equal to those offered by any similar institution. I have observed the students there engaged in the various business transactions. Every thing is d one in the college just as it will be required in after life when the student enters the counting room, the rauroad omce, the com mission house, the insurance office. or the banking establishment. I have had the good fortune to know the faculty of this college. They are all deeply interested in the work. 1 heir object Beems to be to make this institution one of the best in the Union. Love for their work and an entire devotion to the cause of prac tical training, together with the de sire to benent our State and the whole South, are the propelling forces that move the conductors of this school to make the exertions they are putting forth for the ad vancement of those who are availing themselves of the facilities offered by this institution. It is highlv prob able that J. M. Bacheldor, A. Ml, of New York, one of the Professors in this school, is the most thorough scholar every way. that is engaged in business education in the United States. As a citizen of this State, I feel proud whenever any thing is done within her borders that tends to develop her resources or fit her sons and daughters for usefulness. .Let us applaud every effort made to accelerate the development of the State or her people. 1DMERY E.
