An effort is being made to have the (legislature pass a dkpensary law1 for Mecklenburg county without submitting- the question to a vote.. It will hardly succeed.

Democrat, Feb. 8. The mica mining rdustry i again, beginning to attract attention, in thte section, since the lately reported rise in price for this product, jt has been claimed that a very large percentage 'of the world's supply robably 50 pe- cent, of it tames from :he mines of Western North Carolina, and very much of it of the finest and most marketable ' variety. A well known mine (heretofore developed and :or quite a, while successfully worked when this -mineral commanded good prices) located some miles above here on the waters of Ivy, is now coming in to prominence again by reason of stronger demand and better prices and for the further reason that the control of the property has passed into i other hands lately. Large quantities of an exceedingly fine and valuable variety of this rare mineral) product have been torn in huge blocks from tlhe mountain side. Flawless, unfiecked by a sugges tion of cloud, but clear as the perpetu ally crystal watere of the mountain sibream flowing nearby. Some of these specimens, taken from this as yet only partially developed mine, have served for patterns, measuring eight inches by ten thus yielding sheets sufficiently large for window glass in mountain cabins (heretofore innocent of the com paratively modern Innovation and con venience of sash jand light. The rich values here locked in the stony arms of nature the present owners are anxi ous to bring to light and usefulness, and to this end they have been in communication with some practical mica miners and capitalists who are negotiating in regard to joining them in the operation of this mine. W. W. Vandiver, of "Weaverville, is attorney for the present owners, and he express es the hope and expectation that Jt will not be long until these mines will be in full operation. The well known school here, the An tioc .academy, under the superintend ence of Prof. Moore, continues to be a great factor for good and the upbuild ing of the community. The citizens hereabouts take great pride in this ex cellent institution and its scope of use fullness will be sought to be broadened and extended. Miss Dora Brown, daughter of Mr. Charles Brown, of Weaverville, is the teacher in the department of instru mental music.

Settle, N. C, Feb. Madl diogg are doing havoc around Settle, and 'the peo pie are VCTy much wrought up over the fear of Ibetiinig bitten by the vidtim of hy drophobia. Mr. Moody Gaiitiher, of Harmony, acci dentally shot himself with a shot, gun Friday morning while out hunting, it is said that the gun by which he was shot has beemi the means of several accidents and narrow escape. The- first sltlarm odfl the; season! passed over fth'is part of the county last night. Sltygion storm cloud came rolling up from the east; great shafts of cloud shot up and then bent out like a sail before the wiodi; forks of lightning began shoot irnig hither and thither, and wkh sheets of flame they wrapt the clouds in rolling fire. The muttering thunder could be heard in th'e distance and gathering force and velocity as it came, stunning the ear with its clammors. The rain, fell in itcrtrents, but ithis morning there is no vestage of the storm save the creeks brought out of bank, and ithe sun is shin ing as brightly as if no. titcrm hJ ever passed. Mrs. Miles Campbell died very sudden ly. She W,nt to bed an night ieeiing as well as usual and nviis dead a .few man utes af:e.. JVirs. Campbell was noted fcr teing 'the heaviest women in.

A good farm of 125 acres, in tha valley of French Broad river, one mile from depot, 22 miles from Asheville, on main road leading from Asheville to Brevard; very convenient to postofnee and churches; the Methodist Episcopal church one half mile, Presbyterian church one quarter mile, Methodist Episcopal, south, two and one quarter miles and the Baptist two miles away. About 50 acres are cleared, 25 acres of which is creek bottom, very fine meadow 'and, balance finely timbered. One half dozen, or more excellent, told, mountain .springs, freestone water; also a beauti ful clear creek flows through the farm.

There is also near this beautiful site a very fine, bold spring or rreesrone water. xins magnificent site is covered with a fine erove of native forest. This site alone is worth more than owner asks for tru whole farm. Anyone desiring a horr.e amidst moet beautiful natural surrdun.l ings, and in a climalte noted for its su perior healthfulness, especially for thos subject to throat or lung difficulties, will find this location hard to be excelled. This farm would be very cheap at. $11 per acre, but present owner is going west in the spring, therefore, he puts the farm on the market, for cash, ait $5 per acre. Also would add that the orchard, als . is worth the money that owner asks f.-r the farm. This farm can be bought at the above low price, if taken in the nex; sixty days. I would further add that 1 e title is perfectly good, and that the prop erty is now assessed at $825. Now i? ! your time to rush for a good home at le.-- than half its worth.

The criminal section cf the fount of cassation, conduced fits in quiry into the. Dreyfus trial and formal ly declared .1 closed. lit will now refer the whole matter, with, the new light de velopedl during the inquiry, to the procur ator general, wiho is required itto report his opinion, to the criminal section of 'the court of cassation,, which will pronounce the decision unless the government' re vision bill is adopted, in -which case ithe the matter will g'oi before the united counts of caissaticm instead! if tie crimi nal section alcme. The full meaining of Dupuy's bill disa bling the court of casaiaition seemingly is not appreciated outside of France. Un der existing law the j laurc of caisuaiticn en miaisse was entitled ncr. only to quash the illegal sentence of the courtmartial of 1894, but had ihe riehit bo try the whole case , and if satisfied of the inno cence of the vidtim on pevil's! Island could restore him bo freedom. The new bill proposes to take ithis pow er away ifrom the court of cassation and let the final sentence rest with a court rrJarti'ail. By thie provision the proceed injgs are set in a vicious circle,. so that if Dreyfus ever is brought, to France the courit martial certainly will- contrive mins to send him back again.
