The owners of The Growders Mountain iron Works bete to call tne attention or capitalists iron munuia&urers, stock and dairy men, ana those who wish to settle eo onlea, to tuelr property .which otters inducements to the classes above named. The properly consists ol six Thousand Three HunurcQ Acres ot land, located in the counties of das ton aiidJCieavelaBd, in the State of Worth Car oiina, at King's Amuutdiu Depot, on the Atlanta and Chariotte Air Lino railway, now owned by the kichmouu and DanvtUe-raltroad company. The property has been used for nfty years past as an iron property, . and has ueen worked at various points, but ehletly at the site ot the celebrated Yellow Kiuge'Ore batik, which has always yielded an ore noted for its rienness in metallic iron, and its softness and toughness. This vein ot ore, wnieh extends for two wiles in length, has been worked to the dept - f 147 feet, shewing at that aepta a veiu ol ore about Hi loet wiue, anu auaia lug as high as 6 per cent, of metallic Iron. This vein has not been worked for tweuty years, but the facts set forth can be fully shown. Various other veins nave been worked, and within tne past two years very large deposits of Iron ore have been dis covered at other points. Within the past eighteen mouuis, however, the owners have discovered de posits of ore in Crowders Mountain, (live veins of li on 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 ol the most desirable Iron properties to be found. The; have discovered on the pinnacle of tins mountain, which Is iuuu feet above the level -land, 2M) feet above the sea level, a vein of ore eight feet wide, which crops out at various point ruin tne top to uie ouuoui ui un iuuiuihuu, allow ing iu one place about 2u feet ot solid vein. This vein can oe traced over the top of the mountain for over a wile,ana tnis deposit alone would adord an almost inexhaustible supply ot ore, easily worked, aad above the water line. Hi addition to this four ouier veins n?ve oeen found en this mountain, l ue ore is a mottled gray ore, showing on analysis fijm tt to bo per cent, of metallic iron, with a small amount of titanic acid, ami without any sul phur or phosphorus. . The quantity of ore in this moon tain Is slmpiy inexhaustible and of good uuaiity. Besides Crowder's Mountain the owners possess King's Mountain, for about seven miles, whose pinnacle is the highest point of land from Rich mond to Atlanta, except Mt. Airy, In Ueorgta, aud tiiHV nave reason to believe this uiouiitaln fa full of ore also. In addition to h-qh ore $he prbperjiy has maiikue,'limeiu'e' clay" fpr' making hre-probf one, goid ahd'ouier minerals. Very pure and ex- cedent oarytese has Just been found in large quan tity. -, - - .-.

' WHO OKlGINATED IT tj ;-f The Baltimore Bub. says that dent Arthur pays a 'Compliment to Representative Townsbend,' of' Illi nois, a Democrat, in advocating so strongly -in his message the scheme of commercial relations with other American countries. He got theideaj the Sun thinks, from a speech deliv ered by Mr. To'wnshend in Congress," July 5, 1884, ; in which he advocated the formation of ; an American Zollverein. , Who originated this idea we do not know, but perhaps Mr. llinton Rowan Helper, of this State,'' can lay about as much claim to it as any one. . Years ago he conceived the, scheme" of a grand trunk railway, reaching from our possessions on. the North Pacific to the extreme South, and so located as to tap or connect by branch lines with all the centres of trade of Central and South Ameri ca. He has talked and. written m this for years, endeavored to enlist capital and government aid iu it,' has secured , contributions j from " miny persons sbowing'the resources of the various ' countries in question, find the best of these he has .worked up into bis own writings upon the sub ject, and thus by his own labor aid research. And by m information -fur nished by others, be has accumulated and given to the world a vast amount of. valuable information on. thfese countries. He is an enthusiast upon the scheme, believes it pot only possi ble, but a matter of comparatively easy accomplishment in this day of colossal enterprises, when genius fend money are appalled by few obstacles where there is a reasonable proba bility of the enterprise justifying the necessary investment.,' One of the strong arguments he offers in betalf of his scheme is that it would be link ing of the two continents, resulting not only in close commercial rela tions, but in giving the enterprises men of the United States a practical monopoly r of - the varied and - rich trade of the countries: south of us, and opening up a market there for our surplus supplies, which they teed but do not raise. This is identically the idea that President Arthur has, but he urges reaching it by f avcring legislation, and legislation is eksier than building such railroads as Helper suggests. Helper's scieine will hardly ever h carried out just as he advocates it, but the time ig not so very remote when something like it will be in existence, a sy stein of roads connecting those countries with ours, becoming tho great highvays of freight and travel. There is E0 th ing more unreasonable in this now than there would have been a quarter of a century ago in the. pjgcliptton of the suatera of roads that connects the extremes of eur own Republic. The men who in '49-150 drove across the plains .in wagons to California and Oregon never dreamed that within 1 4-Vtsve Ufa. ti'malAiAmAfi'Tfna waiiH fl wr vUCU lllO tiuiwvuivvi To , n vuu All . 1 L across these same plains qimb or run through, e, great . mouitain ohains over wla They. slowly toiled), drawing after them trains of p4a.ee cars, with all the CQm,f ortS and oon- yeniencgaol toerri civaitiOm fpr tbe passenger. t woild. ha.ye been deemed, a ig)t of fancy ten 3 ears ago for OR? to say that one could leave any portion of the American Republic, and go all the way by rail through the Republic and City of Mexico to Accapulca ;qui hvi.ndred miles further on,, on the Pacific. But th.ese things are realitieSj and stupen dous ; as they ; are, 5 have ceased; to attract any attention in thee rapd, go-a-head tinges.. .

It is a, grand WW idea, and those who are now working it up are, entitled to all th5 credit it may bring them. Governor-elect Gray, of Indiana, turned over that office to Governor Porter four years ago.jandthe latter will turn it over to Mr. Gray in Ja.n uary. It is said that no two Gover nors ever Stood in thj relation be fore.!

That's about what the Democracy did when it elected Cleveland, and there is nothing m the world to prevent Sherman from falling into line. ; ' Bill Chandler thinks politics should I be kept out of the Navy. Bill was a I long time in reacmngtnis conclusion, and would hardly-; have - reached ' it yet if there was any prospect of his continuing to boss the Navy,, . . . ' A number of ,; Grerman capitalists recently passed through Washington to attend the New Orleans exposi tion. .It is their intention to famil" iarize thems-elves with the resources of the South with a viejw to the in vestme nt of several millions of dol lars. : Senator Lamar expresses the opins ion that Mr. Clevleand's administra- tion will favor a scrupulous but not a parsimonious economy, and. that he will insist upon the most rigid honesty and accountability on the part of public officials. . He also thinks it improbable that any action will be taken on ' the 'tariff at the present Bession of Congress, but at the next session a scheme of reduc tion will be brought forward which will cause ho uneasiness in business circles, and will meet the approba tion of the country. ABOUT THE STATE. Bev."' James M. Sprunt, the old chanlain of the 20th N.i C. Infantry, and brother to Mr. Alex Sprunt, of Wilmington died at ms home in Kenansyille, Duplin county, fast Sat urday, aged 66 ; years. , Toe tie view says: Tneaeceasea was Dora near ; Edinburgh, Scotland, and iwas edu' cated at the famed University of Edinburgh. He came to America in 1845, although previous to that time he bad travelled extensively in the West Indies.' Upon his arrival in this country he proceeded directly to Kenansville, where he always lived up to the time of his death, aad where he married and built him a home. For many years he was en gaged " in teaching, . a vocation in which he was eminently successful It was while thus engaged that he prepared himself for the ministry. As a Christian minister he was pastor of the Presbyterian church at Kenans ville from the time of his ordination to the day of his death.

The Best Paying Qpnngltion CompaaT ia the Ume 8itea Hampered fey JQtsm,aBa$-nieDt. : . .tndex-ADDeal. ' Norfolk. Va.. Deo. ft.-rThe1 press gave you. last night a short story of the suit of Gen.

It is a little singular that the matter should have been kept so quit, seeing - that the comoanv has been more or less in volved, since tha Bankers & Meis chahtft tegraPn company, went into the hands of a receiver . several months ago.

"The New York Sua publishes an orxicie wnicn tenas to show that the country 13 approaching a time when the currency will be gold and silver anu unitea scacss paper money. 5 J ine argument of the Sun is sub stantially as follows State bank notes have already been taxed out of existence. , xne national banking vurreuuy ia ueing contracted ail the time. It was diminished durine- thn paetrear25.000,000 Allowing for the notes surrendered for redemption it now amounts to only about 1292,000, 000. This circulation is secured by wure classes 01 oonus-r-ss. 4s and 4is. - Of the as there are 4155.000.000 which -vail probably -f be redeemd i wunin me next two vears. OFthft ta tnere are 1117,000,000 which will ina ture in 1907. Qf theUisl there are $50,000,000 redeemable in 1891. lf coui-se the abeve bonds include only those held by the banks.- The bonds are certain to be paid as fast as they mature, unless there shall be legisla tion which will delay their Davment. By the payment of the ' debt the na tional bank currency will be reduced to about $100, 000,00a within the next half dozen years. . By that time it is probable that timid investors and trustees and. executors anxious for safe investments will : have by . their demands sq, ; increased ; the , premium of the 4s that it will be found -more profitable to sell them and invest the' money than to make them the hasia of national bank circulation. In that event,the end of national bank circu lation will have been reached. But there will not be! any scarcity of currency. There is new outstand ing $346,000,000 of legal tender notes. No attempt has been made to increase or decrease this amount since 1878. Since ' that date there have been coined 185,000,000 silver dollars, 41, 000,000 of which are in actual circula tion and 105,000,000 are represented represented by certificates, which are now a part Of our, currency, There has been coined also since 1879 188.- 000,000 in gold, which has been put in circulation. The above flsrures show tha al bank circulation to be decreasing annual at the rate of $25,000,000, and the currency, by meano of gold and silver coinage and the issuance of gold and silver certificates! to be in creasing at the rate of $56,000,000. It is probable that the net annual in crease is fully equal to our increased annual demand. '. ; ; - Will Congress permit our curren ¬ cy to continue in the direction it has taken, or will it stop the coinage of silver and cut down the ; revenues so as to prevent the national bank cur rency from being extinguished by cutting oft the means to pay the bonds? Bills have already been in troduced in Congress to . stoD the coinage of silver, and the action on tnese oius, which may 'be "expected this session, will give some idea as to what our currency in the future is Rheumatism, Gent and Neural ..... rf a. !-p. ......
