B. 4 625 xlOO 10 46.25 B.'s part." Mr. Henry also furnishes, correctly, the solution to the first grazing problem; but the correct solution having already been given we omit this part of his letter: j Our old friend Geo. Gchagan of Madi-1 son, gave us a pleasant call yesteraar. He always has something useful to say concerning farming, for he js one of the best farmers in Western Carolina. He mentioned a plan which his father al ways followed successfully in plowing. For instance , if he had a clover field which he wanted to pot in wheat or corn, he would not turn under the clover growth, as is customary, but would use a tongue-plow, breaking the land deep, leaving the vegetable matter upon top of the soil to shade and protect it. Ihis, Mr. Gehasran taid. would make the land yield considerably more than the other svstem.- Mr. Genagan, or-., gatnereu zi bushels of wheat per acre lrotn this me thod of tillage, and the. land j improved every year "under his system. This suggestion may be worth the attention of our farmers. Suppose all try a part of a field that way, to see the result. The Baptists of Western North Car olina. ' Speaking of the Baptist denomination of Western North, Carolina, and their paper, a correspondent writes the Bine Ridge Baptist from Ashe ville : , . , Already the most numerous- and pro gressive, they are fast becoming the inost wealthy and influential people in trie country, and in our opinion, nothing cou'd add more to their prosperity and influence for good than the general cir culation of a progressive religious news" paper. We hsYik ve. tba in ihe B.hi$. Ridg, BafiTitf we 1fav such" a paper and that its removal to Asiieville,- the Metropolis of the West, will mark a new era in the history of Western North Carolina Bap tists and, the general material as well as religious development of our section. 1 1 has therefore, become the first duty of every Baptist to labor with might and main for the establishment and support of our paper, that its influence may grow; that it may scatter on every mountain and in every valley the seeds of truth and good works. Its removal to Abbe ville will be welcomed by all classes and denominations of our people, and from the first issue at this place, it will be re garded as an established and prosperous enterprise. No newspaper in our section ever began its career with brighter pros pects or the more general confidence of the people. For the Asiieville Citizen. HORRIBLE ACCIDENT AT WHIT v TIER A MAN KILLED. Whittier, N. C, Feb. 5, 'S6. M'ssrs. Editors: Yesterday our quiet town ias shocked by the news of a ter rible accident. Manly Conly, a carpen- er working on the buildings here, had a young man by the name of Albert Mor gan working . for him. On yesterday morning he sent Morgan to cut some fire wood. Morgan began on a' large tree that had been cut in tirao and lodged on another tree. While he was cutting on the tree it slipped off the f tump and turning fell backward. Conly heard the falling of the tree, but not the sound of the axe again, went to see afterthe cause and found Morgan buried under the tree some ten feet from the ttump with no thing visible but one hand. Ilelp"was called in and the tree, cut away and he was taken out completely mangled- Ilis head 'wa3 crashed, neck ' brokea, both arms and thighs al30r and his body near ly cut through. . - . : Our town is progressing rapidly. - T.

The Goldsboro Messenger says : "Miss Olivia Millard, of cur Gra ded bchool, has received and accept ed a proposition to take charge of a department in the Asheville Nor mal fc-chool, during her next sums mer's vacation. Miss. Millard held a posstion in this school last year, The fact that herS3rvices were sought so early for the next . session .'s a high tribute to her efficiency. Senator Ingalls, of Kansas, says there can be no controversy or dead lock between the President and the Senate. If the President does not choose to give the information call ed for in regard to removals or sus pensions, that settles the question. The Senate can only refuse to con firm his appointments and put the President to the trouble of reap pointing his man at the close of the sesion. Senator Ingalls carries a very level head. The unprecedented snow fall with in the past forty-eight hours, cover ing so wide an area of the Mississip pi Valley, is the precursor to fresh ets and floods that carry disaster in their sweep. It is not too soon to sound the notes of timely warning to people living in the bottoms to have it care.for stock and fenw. It is near the time of year for the an nual spring Hood, and this year. with the present indications, it promises to be above the average. Exchange. The appointment of Broadhurst as under home secretary, in the new British Cabinet, has caused a sensa tion in political circles. That gen tleman being the first workingman that has ever rien to a ministry ap pointment, is taken as an indication that it is Gladstone's intention to rely upon the masses " against the iniiuence of the .--ristocracy. The Liberal clubs are divided in opinion on the subject, the Reform and Dev onshire disapproving the appoint ment, and the National Liberal en thusiastically approving it. The hostility of the Whigs to Gladstone.is intense. This is sbown in the difficulty experienced by tiic premier in filling peeresses' posts in the Queen's household. The Duch ess of Westminster and the Duch ess of Bedford refused appointmen ts and others will follow thdr exam ple. . Redmond, the Nationalist mem ber in Parliament, in a speech at Monaghan today, urged Irishmen to restrain their violent leelingsand not to hamDer the new Government which, he said, would take immedi ate steps to stop evictions.

Rioters have again broken loose, in beattle. W r., on account of. the Chinese. Troops had to be cailed.and they succeeded in suppressing the disturbances. Several of the rioters were wounded. The police of Madridon the 7th suppressed a meeting of Federal Re publicans because ono of the speak ers referred to the state of the mon archy as insecure. Two leaders of the recent revolt at Carthagena have been sentenced to deatn and the oth er to ten years' imprisonment. A London dispatch of the even ing of the 9th says : An attempt was made this afternoon to renew on a small sca'e, the riotous demonstra tions of" yesterdav. The city is thickly enveloped with fog. Strag gling parties f roughs took advan tage ot the semi-darkncps to con gregate in goino of the fushonable thorougfares of West End, and they made no pretense of being working men, but were undoubtedly tramps, foot pads and pickpockets. 1 he Prince of Wales gave a ball at St. James' Palace this afternoon, and nrany private equipages containing members of the peerage and aiistoc racy were on their way to the pal ace. The rioters turned their atten tion to thi e carriages, seeking to stop thein fur the purpose of plun dering their occupants. The thieves did not meet with, much success, but they caused great apprehensions among the ladies by frightening the hor?es and making them unman ageable. After about half an hour the rioters were dispersed by police, but the teeliiii; ot alarm is spread ing, and it is reared that there miy be a more for nidable outbreak af ter nightfall. . The police have been largely re-en!' r ced , this afternoon and have succeeded in dispersing the roughs who were attempting to commit rob! unes und?r cover of the fog. ' The rioters have fled in various direction?, aiid'ara being pursued o previ nt.thciii from reassembling. From another dispatch we gel the following: The ppirit of the mob is distinctly aggressive. Every carriage whicti iiuppv.ru? to come within nacii oi the rioters is nt once surrounded and its 'Kit-upants hooieil, kissotl and insultett. During the arly part of the af ternoon a eorgeous uip.i-e was driven .near ti.e mob. iSouio said the turnout wms the Lord Mayor's and the rioU-is at once made a rush for it, st-i-imi gly determineil to tear the veiiicle i pieevs and stamp its occupants to death. The police, however, by a charge rescued the equipage and its occupants and got them to a place of safety. The mob at present is simply a mass of undirected savages;' .Noth ing, it. would seem, but a want of some popular leader" pievents VShe mob from exerting its' strength irt some organized moAemcnt which might bring about most disastrous results. During the day the policd1 charged on the mob twice in full force, fprthe purpose of breaking il up and diiving the fragment from' Trafdar - Square, but both efforts were futile. The,, mob would yield a little at thepoint of attack, but bulge out in .some other direction. The police could not surround or . break it. Each failure of the police was greeted with ; cheers and yvils. - ; At this hour, 3 p. in., the rioters are getting enraged at the frequent repetition of police hostility. The1 temper of the men is rising. Thous; ands of men are pouring down t to the scene, and all the pavements in the vicinity of Trafalgar Square are alive with excited men, and rows on each side ot the street being no where less than six men deep. : The increasing gravity of the .sit uation has finally alarmedjthe au thorities and they putforth"all their, energies to suppress ; the incijerit riot The police force on duty at Trafalger Square was enormously increased and prepared for a well defined and exhaustive assault This loDg etn ggle resulted in pushing the mob into the side streets' and thus splitting it no.
