The pcopei tj consists of lx Thousand Three Huiiured au cs ol land, located in the counties of iiaston and Cleaveland, In the State of North Car' oiuia, at King's Mountain Depot, on the Atlanta . and Charlotte Air Line railway, now owned by the Kichmoud and Danville railroad company. The property has been uaed for hfly years past as an noil properly, and lias been worked at various poiuu. Put cilleily at the site ol the celebrated leilow Uidge ore Bank, which has always yielded an ore noted for its rlcnuess in metallic iron, and its. softness and toughness, lus vein of oie, winch extends lor.twvj miles In length, has been wonted to the tiept t HI feet, snu wing at that depth a vein ot ore about 40 feet wide, and analyz ing as high as 60 per cent, of metallic lion. . This veiu has not been worked for twenty years, but the tacts set lorth can be tuily shown. Various other veuis have been worked, and within ttie past two years very large deposits of iron ore have been dis covered at other points. Within the past eighteen months, however, the owner, have discovered de posits of ore in Crowder's Mouuialn, (live veins of iron ore, are exposed) which were unknown be ' fore, and which will furnish &a amount of good ore, easily worked andi above water, that must stake it one ot the most desirable iron properties to be found. They have discovered on the pinnacle of this mountain, which is lOUU'feet above the level land. 22U0 feet above the sea level, a vein of ore eight feet wide, whteo' crops out at various points from the top to the bottom of the mountain, show ing in one place about 20 feet ot solid vein. This vein can be traced over the top of the mountain for over a mile, and this deposit alone would afford an almost inexhaustible supply of ore, easily worked, and above the water line, in addition to this four other veins b?"ve 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 inexhaustible and of good quality. " ' . Besldetfrowder'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- Alt. Airy, in Georgia, and they have reason to believe this mountain is full of ore also. In addition to Iron ore the property has manganese, limestone clay for making fire-proof brick, gold and other minerals. Very pure and ex cellent barytese has just been found In large quan tity. as a stock and dairy farm 1t offers fine opportu nities to those who may wish to engage In such bus iness. It has from three to four thousand acres of Uvel or onKy slightly rolling land, which produces rfi-dss, grain and all kinds of fanning products anely, and it is well supplied with water by unfanV. ng springs and branches - .-- 1 The other 4,000 acres embraced In the mountain Ides are productive of fine grass and herd age, and aord excellent natural pasturage for sheep and cattle," The climate Is so mild that but little shel ter for stock is needed in the coldest winters. The whole six thousand acres are now covered with a Une growth of timber of all kinds, such as pine, hickory, oak, walnut, cedar,, etc The Jand is well suited to farming purposes, by those who wish to colonize. Cotton, corn, peas, oats, clover and grass, and fruits of all kinds are produced beautifully .and it is specially suited to grapes and small fruits. It could be divided into small farms that would give to each farm variety of soli, and level and hilly and. It is situated In the Piedmont belt, which is noted for the- salubrity of Its climate, and the healthiness of its atmosphere. It Is a region free from malaria and other unhealthy Influences. It Is located with great convenience to railroad facili ties, being situated at from two to four miles from King's Mountain Station, on a railway that has the most extensive connections with all parts of the' country, and which oilers great inducements to' those who are trying to develop the country along its lines. The owners will sell this property to suit purchasers, as follows: The whole tract.

Journalism is as mucn of a business as any other, and ought to be subjected to tne same rules. The editor or publisher gives his equivalent in his brains (which he is presumed to have, correctly or otherwise, his time, his labor, his material , and his money also, which is supposed to come from those kind ly iaries who watch over the fortunes of the editor; and in very many cases he gets in return the promise'to t pay when the obliging patron gets some money, or when hi can spare it from other uses. And in frequent cases that same subscriber is; incensed at the reminder that his subscription is due, and that the editor needs the money ; and closes the obligation by imperative order to "stop my paper," sometimes paying up arrears, somes times consoling, his conscience by the proud, recollection that he f cad :pats ronized the paper.- - - - ,v Contrasting the system ' of credit in vogue among our,, home f papers, with the gash system enforced by the Northern papers, it says; . "Very many Northern weeklies are taken through the South Every subscriber to them is expected to pay in advance; and he knows that itt the instant his time expires his. name is dropped unless he takes steps to renew in time. Now a home paper working directly for the interests of the whole people," young and old, is infinitely more valuable than any distant jour nal. Why not apply the ' principles of punctuality or obligation to the home paper as to the Northern Jour nals?i Our people do not seem to ap- Creciate the fact that journalism is a usiness, requiring money, time,, labor and capacity .for its conduct; that editors and their families must live, that employees "must be paid, that material must he bought, that rents and taxes must lie paid, that all the exigencies of a business must -be met, and all this with money. i 1 This is ' a practical, businesslike, common sense view of the subject, the force and justice of which wil strike any one who gives it a mo ment's thought. ! The .credit system, "so ; general throughout the 'South has been the bane of S jut hern journalism, and the wonder is not that Southern papers, considering all that they have to con tend against,' are n6tf better then they are, but that they are as good. It requires courage, perseverance and self denial to publish the average newspaper in the South, and while all, if th&cash system were the rule, and the publisher was promptly paid for the work he did, 'might be made re : munerative, but few Southern papers under thr present system are, with; perhaps the exception of the larger cities where the papers are con ducted on business principles as, any, other business is. X ? ' "While the credit system is ruinous 1 to tne newspaper, it is aiso injurious to the section of country in which the paper is published, ; becausa by keep i ing the paper constantly cramped for means it is crippled for usef ulness,v when by proper support it might bes come a powerful and influential ad - v'ocate and advertiser of its section. The paper that has to scramble ffrom day to flay 'to find the; wherewith' to. keep itself alive, may lead for awhile a sickly existence but it "cannot grow1 and be strong.; J": , ' j ' i We would like to see . every paper in North Carolina" in a; flourishing' condition, Z because! aide fromlthe friendly interest we take in the crafty the State and the people ' would be the : gainer' thereby.'

We know personally of fthumber of such? 1 And when it comes to. the great enterprise leading to the de velopment of the1 'State's resources and bettering the ; condition of ; the" people the newspaper l always found in the front to do more than its share of service, .not only ;'r willingly, but gratuitously. 4! i?! without newspapers would be very far phind the age, and very' lonely;; a country with poor, newspapers, comes next to the country without them.

' ' ! Correspondence Thk Observes. ; , .": ' Washington, Jan., 3, 1885. Before the day Curtis Brogden and Or lando Hubbs, which is to say long be fore James E.; O'Hara, Warren coun ty possossed the Congressman from the Black District. John Hy man was his name, and he -was of the hue of a bright gingercake.', John was pot a bad darkey, and - had some counten ance from Democrats on account of his common sense and amiability. But he got to thinking he couldn't live without an offiee, and when the peo pie failed him he fell back on the tavor of the powers that be in Wash ington. For several years John has hung on around these precincts; somer times in and sometimes out.- The other day, knowing jthatt Mr. Cana day, the Sergent-at Arms of the Sen ate, our ex-Congressman went to him and solicited a position;-'-, Mr. ; Cana day told John he could put him on the labor roll, where his-dinies would be to scrub the floors, clean the spit toons, and the like tasks. In high dudgeon the ex-Representative de clined to perform these menial offices. He said that he supposed, there was something in Mr. Canaday's gift than a; self respecting - man could- accept, but that lor him to f ollow.with servile hand in the wake of Senatorial expec toration was an impossibility. ' I John's is not the only . voice I hear raised against the common practioe of leading Republican officials where they wish to reward'?, coloredwho" have labored, faithfully during many ears for the grand old party. They are tnaue newers ot wood ana drawers of water literally, for white Republic cans. - Given a ' "place" under the Government, they are expected' to clean spittoons, black the boots Of the officials, or act as hostler and private massenger boy. ' That they take such treatment shows their docility under any mastery, which, ' however, is not not likely to last much longer.. . ; 5 Interest continues in the precious quarrel between Chairman Jones and the administration of Mr. Arthur. The , fight took a new turn"; to day.' The National Republican returned to its charges of last week, and called upon Senator Hawley to sustain its averment that Jones withheld a letter from the President which was intend ed to aid the Republican cause in the campaign. Gen. Hawley, it is stated carried the missive to the Chairman. It is charged that the committee sups pressed the letter for the purpose of shoyving that the administration was lukewarm. All this squabble is due to the candidacy of the President for the. New. York Senatorship.. As it stands, Mr. Arthur has the best of it. .The debt statement issued yester day, shows that the public debt which has been decreasing steadily for sev eral years actually increased in De cember to the extent of $641,384, This has given use to much speculation. some wild guessing : as. .to", the cause and wilder suggestions as to what ought to be done. The Secretary of the Treasury says the Blight increase is not due to extraordinary expendi ture, "'for there have been . none. - He says that for two months the Treas ury has felt the effect of the general depression in a tailing oil of receipts. This falling .off, its causes and r la tionsto economic, legislation and fi nance, arethe subject of earnest dis cussion among the congressmen in the city. - Mr. Holman, the apostle of eoOnoray in expenditure, reports this shortage of revenues as not necessari ly had thing. It shows, he thinks, that the present, lavish expenditure must be curtailed. He says he favors any reduction of "revenue that vVill force economy. ' Mr Buckner says that this general depression through out the world has but one -com mon cause the' scarcity ' of gold, the world's gold is being used up. All persons know, and several Con-, gressmen stated in interviews today. that the imports are tailing on owing to the hard times. ; People can't 'af ford to buy. . They eat and dress less. As a remedy some -may suggest ; a foreign war'. But others think wise ly that the medicine is too costly," and prefer to toughit out. Of course the effect : of the statement just issued UDon tariff -discussions ls.considered. The "high tariff men contend that it is a sign that the tariff can stand no re duction at present, while the revenue reformers argue that it merely shows that if rates ; were lower; both the ! home manufacturer and the consumer j would be benefitted along with the government. Low rate materials would enaoie tne nome manufacturer to compete and as: the- reduction would lower prices it would stimti-! late buying. So all around we should feel a revivifying - influence. The statement also excites discussion over i the currency" question. It is not thought that any measure for stop- j ping silver coinage for three ; years will rDe. passed at tnis sessions , jut,, Buckner; at the most hopes for some-, thing from his bill which leaves the temporary suspension of the coinage with the President.-- v I .
