The property has been used lor ufly jaara past as an uoa property,- and has been worked at various points, but chiefly at the site of the celebrated Yellow Kidge Ou Batik, which has always yielded an ore noted lor its richness lit metallic Iron, and its softness and toughness. This vein of ore, which extends lor two miles In length, has been worked to the dept ; I 147 feet, showing at that depth a vein ol ore about 40 feet wide, and analyz ing as high as 6t per cent, of metallic iron. - This vein has nut been worked for twenty years, but the tacts set forth can be fully shown. Various other veins have been worked, and within the past two years very large deposits ot iron ore have beeu dis covered at other points. - Within the past eighteen months, however, the owners have discovered de- posits of ore In crowder's Mountain, (live veins of 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 tne most desirable iron properties tn ha fnnnH Ttiav hiivp. dijuvwp.revt on ttiA til nnMta ' of this mountain, which is 10U0 feet above the level land, 2200 feet above the sea level, a vein of ore eight feet wide, which erops out at various points from the top to the bottom of the mountain, show ing In one place about 20 feet of solid vein. This vein can be traeed 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 have been found on this mountain. The ore is a mottled gray ore, showing on analysis from 49 to 66 per eent. 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, . Besides Crowder's Mountain the owners possess King's Mountain, for about seven miles, whose pinnacle Is the highest point of laud from Rich mond to Atlanta, except ML Airy, In Georgia, and they have reason to believe this mountain is fun of 'ore also.

THE MERCHANT'S TAX.' " . We publish elsewhere today a com msnication from one of the leading merchants of Asheville en the sul ject of the merchaat's tax on gross purchases, to .which we made edito rial reference several days ago. Eq' uursing me view oi our euiwriai, the writer advances some additional reasons why the tax should be abol ished, and he writes with the force of one familiar with the practical opera tions of the law, its defects and its inequalities. It is more than likely that this subject will be brought prominently before the Legislature at the present session. ' " Last Friday evening the Board of Trade of Asheville took hold of it in a business like way and 'after diar cussing for a time its oppressive f ea- jturefy appointed a committee to iii; vestigate the question and report to a subsequent meeting with a viewto concerted action for the repeal of the aw. The merchants of Asheville are moving, in the right direction,- and are proceeding in a business like way If .the merchants of other towns and cities; in the Sta pursue Jfte same course; call their meetings, discuss, investigate and present -their case clearly fo? presentation to the Legist lature, there is no doubt that it would result in the relief so justly demand ed. . There is a power in concert, of action which individual . or scattered efforts would "not have, for a great and influential class, occupying the position that the merchants of North Carolina do in the State, speaking in their aggregate, would command the respect that they are entitled to We throw this, out as a suggestion for the benefit of - those merchants who de sire to be relieved, from" what they consider, and what evidently is, an onerous and unjust tax. v - i 'sVi A TRIBUTE TO NORTH CAROLINA. Col. A. K. McClure, who is now on a Southern tour of recreation, and to personally acquaint himself with the condition of affairs in this section: writes to his paper the result ot his observation from different- points. Speaking of North Carolina, he pays her the following high' compliment: North Carolina is now single from the other reconstructed States in bav ingattained,8o!ely by the efforts ot her own people, a higher degree of gen eral prosperity than was ever before attained in her history. She has a more prosperous and (,hr.if ty people today than at any period of the past, and there is more capital employed and less debt.J3tate and individual, than-at any time in the last half en tury. Texas has surpassed ' the old North State-because of her large in flux of immigration and wealth ; but JNorth Carolina bas fewer foreigners arid a more completely, homogeneous population than any other State of the Unions Since the rescue of the State from the tempest of profligaey that swept over it after . the war under-the Holden government, the taxes have steadily diminished until they are only nominal.and the schools have increased until they proffer ed ucation to every ; child in the Com- monwealtn, regardless of color. - Her legitimate debt is steadily reduced; her, treasury has a large surplus ; her humane institutions, conducted .with equal care and outlay for both races, are monuments of credit f her public improvements have kept pace with the growing wants of. her people: her authority reflects- the .pride of the State in its stainless integrity, and thrift and content are the common blessings of her people. When it is considered that North Carolina ; has every importaht min eral withm her borders, from gold to iron ; that she has every variety of soil for every, variety of crops, from wheat to cotton; thatshe has every variety of climate, from the sunny Southern coast to the chills cf the highest peakof the Apalachian range ; that she has water power enough in a single river to spin and weave the whole cotton of the South, and that her lands are nearly as cheap and her climate better, tnan tne west wnen these facts are weighed in the scale of intelligence, the momentous mean ing of a new South, , with sectional tranquility assured, may : be under stood in the North as it is now under stood in the Carolines. "We may not always agree with Senator Vance in the views he takes of public questions," but we admire the manly spirit with which he mam tains his positions and the independ ence with which, he votes on issues presented. His speech in the Sher man -Davis controversy was a noble defence of the Southern people : and of himself. "His recognized candor is one of the things, .aside from his big brain, that has given him the re spect and confidence he commands iff Washington, - not x only . among his political associates but among his opponents.' ". . . - A threatened unpleasantness be tween Captain's Ashe of the "Ealeigh News and Observer, and Shotwell of the Farmer and Mechanic, growing out publications in these journals of a friendly Jiue, has been averted hy a personal ychat between . these gen tlemen, retulting in an aminable un derstanding. - - The Baleigh Chronicle takes strong position in favor of establishing an industrial school in connection with the State University, a matter which the Observer has advocated for some timel 1 :.' The Winston Sentinel is taking time by the forelock and is booming a proposed grand celebration of the 4th ot July next, in that town. '. . -. .. "r ' " ' Fears lor the snfei f ol a Steamer. t .

S It is not refreshing to know much of these J tQings. ane average rumor, aoout this or that man going into the oabi net is wortn something after all if you could Understand what influoces are- behind it. ,, I have traced some of them nearly to. the fountain head. At the risk of the personal displeas ure of certain high ; contracting pars ties.

Randall. The friends of these gentlemen ; are the friends of the' Pennsylvania lead er. well? rot only so. They are working-f or "Mr.,' RondaiT' as" well is their , home favorites. See? It is nearlyfour years until the next elec tion But active and ambitious men never sleep. Mr.. Randall is an. ac tive md ambitious man,' 1 as everys body knows. " His friends are not all as wisely silent as he is. : They set certain sprrags in motion and some people watch the goirigof the springs. A-report from New York makes it probable that Hon. So-So will enter- Cleveland si cabinet as secretary of this or tha"?,- or postmaster general or attorney genehil, as the case may be. irace up tne report, and you find that the Randall bureau has some- thing to' do with the origination ,:of the thing.-- He is a' tireless - worker, and he bas some very zealous adher ents - But . the- average - judgment is that- Mr. Kandall s candidacy tor the Presidency is such an unknown quantity that we can safely afford to wait; two or three years before at tempting to find it:l The speakership is. nearer at nana. . ana nis wistful eyes are upon it. If by strengthening himself here and weakenmg Mr. Car lisle there ; by means personal and theories political; by special pleading with the iSouth; by all the agencies known to so shrewd a manager, he can re verse the over whelming verdict against him in the 48th CongreuS,,- be can be speaker of the body which elected fewer of his followers than were; returned in 1883. Not other wise. - As the Observer s special of yess terday statea, senator , Vance s state ment in the uavisBnerman contros -versey in the Senate- was strong and impressive, i have heard scores ot per- snos'speakof it in languago of marked praise.
