Out of the general ciy of com plain', about the loss of the fruit, there comes one voice of good cheer. Mr. C. C. Crook says he will have about half a crop of peaches. He occupies a sort of "thermal belt." His "neighbors are not so fortunate. The tobacco plants in several sec tions nave been killed by the cold. In this, however, damages may ba repaired. The farmers generally have reached the wise conclusion to cul tivate less tobacco lands, make crops that will bring good prices, and give greater attentions to bread and meat cropc A Sad Ending. The public generally have heard of the tragical collision in the court room in Newberry, S. C, between Messrs. Johnston and Jones, mem bers of the bar, in which both were badly wounded by pistol shots Yesterday afternoon a telegram was received here giving inform ltiou of the death of Mr. Jones at 3 p. m. Mr. John B. Jones, was a son of Maj. Lambert J. Jones, and brother of Mr. Benson M. Jonesr who mar ried Mirs Liilie, daughter of the late Nicholas M. Woodfin, of Asheville. So that we also are associated in interest with the sad fate of ibe un fortunate deceased Sorghum. ' We are indebted to the Blymer iron works, Cincinnati, for a copy of their Sorghum Handbook, which embodies much valuable informa tion relative to tbe varieties, culture and manufacture of the sorghum into syrup and sugar. The culture for the production of syrup is 1 most universal in the mountain counties, to a greater or less extent. None among them have had the am bition to attempt the manufacture of sugar ; but all of them, with the improved evaporators, make syrup bo successfully as to encourage a larg r industry, so as to compete with other svrups for thmarket The stock of the plant In cultiva tion is derived from two sources, viz., the sorghum proper, from Chi na, the sub-varieties of which are Honduras and Mastodon ; and A f rica, which furnishes the Imphee, the sub-varieties of which are the Liberian, the Neeanza, Early Amber and Early Orange. The first have loofli fir open heads or panicles ; the latter contracted and : erect heads. Some of all these varieties perhaps have been tried in our mountains ; we know tbe Early Amber has many friends. The Early Amber has the ad van tage of ripening in a working period of 96 days, as against 126 days each for the Liberian and Honduras, a matter of great value in connection with late springs and early frosts. As both soil and climate here are favor able We would be glad to see the area in cultivation enlarged. From half an acre to one acre on' selected spots is about the average size of the plantings. .We saw in Transyl vania county a crop of Mr. Connell which was often acres. - Postal ubokb Clb .x.

Knoxville Journal that this gentlemen, whose extreme illness we noted in a recent issue; died at his residence in Carter county, Tenn., on . the morning oi March 31st, at the age of about 68 vears. He graduated at Princeton College and was preparing to . study law, when his plans of life were changed by a terrible accident ' While at camp-meeting at old Brush Creek camp-ground, in Washington coun ty, somewhere about 1841, a terrible thunder storm came up at night, when lightning struck a tent iu which, among others, were Dr. Tav lor, a sister, and a friend from North Carolina named Miller. His sister and Mr. Miller were both killed. It made such an impression upon Dr. Taylor that he at once resolved to abandon the law and enter the min istry. lie began bis ministrations at once. He aftertvardb became a noted oul- pn orator, and ne achieved a nation al reputation. He was fond of politi cal life, was an old line Whiz, ran for Congress in the First District of lennessee, in 1849, and was defeat ed by-Andrew Johnson. In 1860 he was elector in the Bell and -Ev erett ticket. During the war he al- ied himself with the Union side. He was a gentleman of fine social qualities, of pure private life, and great sweetmss of disposition. His family consists of five sous and three daughters, one of whom is now Gov ernor of Tennessee, another was his brother's competitor for that posi-. tion, one, Mr. .Nat Taylor, well known in Asheville as a skilled pho tographer, and two holding posi tions in Washington City. Sensation in Raleigh. Says the Raleigh correspondent of ihe Richmond Dispatch, undet date of the 1st : - A great sensation was caused in this ciry to-day by the action of the solicitor of the Superior Court in presenting sev eral druggists and physieians foi viola tion of the prohibitory law. The indict ments charge that the physicians issued bogus prescriptions for whiskey. None of the physicians so indicted are mem-1 bers of the Kaleigh Academy of Medi cine. There were also two convictions to day for violation of this law by mer chants. One of these was fined $50 aud sent to jail for sixty days. , ine isct was to-day made known for the first time that the Enforcement Committee of the Prohibition Associa tion has bad detectives at work here for the past six weeks investigating these matters. . Watke Works. . The lessons taught by fire are begin ning to be heeded. The towns that have been scorched are showing that "a burn ed child dreads the fire." Water works are becoming recognized as necessary safe gear ds. Perhaps the first to lead the way in this State was the town of Favet eville in 1817-18 with a reservoir on Hay mount, gathering spring water sufficient to sup ply the town with drinking water, but never. enough for fire engine purposes; and these works still exist in the original efficiency. Raleigh made an effort about 1822, obtaining water from Rocky Branch, but they soon failed.

In the second and last installment of his remarkable essay on Napoleon Bonaparte, which appears in the cur rent number of the Revue des Deux Mondes, M. Taine cites several cu nous anecdotes in proof of the im pulsive and eccentric character- cf the conqueror. The Malatestas and Borgias of the country, whence came the ancestors of the great Corsican, were not more sudden aud vehe ment in their emotions and desires. With Napoleon no idea was" simply speculative. It needed instantane ous realization, and his thought, as watt said by Le fradt, became a passion as it grew. On one occasion when discussing the terms of the concordat with Volnev. he gave the Senator a kick in the stomach that sent bin. to bed for a week. When suddenly surprised- br ose6hine at ot. Cloud with a ladv he dashed at terhis wife, who had only time to escape, and in the evening showed his anger by breaking the furni tire near his hands. On another occa sion, before the empire, he treated rserthier in a scurvy manner m the presence of a room full of people. Talleyrand, in his quzzical way, told Lerthier that his master was thinking of proclaiming himself king, whereupon the ill-advised courti?r went over to compliment the first consul. Napoleon's eves darted fury a the word king, and putting his nst under the chin of the unlucky Bertbier, he pushed him towar 's the wall, saying, "Idiot, who sent you here to raise my bile?" He swore and stamped while dictating to his secretaries, and in dressing himself often flung his clothes into the fire if they did not suit him. In short, M. Taine's in teresting notice is a striking prooi of St. Augustine's saying that there is no creat genius without an ad mixture of madness in his compo sition. Feats of an Armless Man. There recently died at Potsdam, St. Lawrence county, New York, Richa ard Donovan, who was in some re spects one of the most remarkable men in northern New York. Twen ty years ago. when a boy, Donovan worked in a flour men. One day he was caught in a belt and received njuries that necessitated tkiner off both arms at the shoulders. This misfortune did not discourage him. and, after recovering his health, he set about earning in8 iivlihood as best he could without the- use of hands or arsns. Part of the time he had lived aione, and from the neces sityjof helping himself he became wonderfully adept in performing all kinds of work, using his feet and mouth principally. He owned a horse of which he took the entire care, harnessed it, fastened the buck les with his teeth, and drove with the reins tied around his shoulders. Being in need of a wagon, he bought wheels and axles and built a box buggy complete and painted it. He went to the barn one winter day and uilt a cow stable, sawing the tim ber with his feet, and. with the hammer in one foot and holding nail with the other, he nailed the Doard on as well as most men could with their hands. He dug a well twelve feet deep on a farm near this town and stoood it himself. He could mow away hay by holding the fork nder his chin and letting it rest against his shoulder. lie would pick up potatoes in the held as fast as a man could dig them. He would ress himself, get his meals, write his letters, and in fact do almost anything that any man with two arms could do. Boston Iranscrint.
