THE GALLANT TABS Who Inhabit the Stated Old North A Trip Tkrwgl Kort Carolina JU clottt a State Rick i AU the El tvunU of Qrcatnas, Whote Woods are trorth the Millie of Colo mi Sellers. (H. W. G. la Atlanta Constitution, Raleigh, N. 0., April 2L With out making any special fuss about it, North Carolina is moving abt-ad in natural development at a p.tce not surpassed probably by any Southern State, and equaled, by none, if we except Georgia and Texas. A hurried run through the State haa astonished me no IiUle. Tbe Dress of the State, first clas- in rranv iespects. Goes not uauui " m 'H practical questions with scoie sad enthusiasm enough to give tbegti- eral public ao idra of wbatisbint( done in tbe way or progrr. ,uj every side 1 have seen a tbnit and earnestness tbat bespeaks careful and well directed work, aud in the departments today I find fbe roost abnudant evidences of the results of tbat work. I j j North Carolina has a range ot climate not equalled bj tbat of any otber Southern State. Oo a map showing tbe mean temperature for tbe various arrtionp,: I noted tbat the southern part was turn Led bo decrees, which is the isothermal for Mobilrt and tbe ganconr.wnne jm northern nrt of the 8(at was m6r!; ed43drgrrei,htchlatbei- hernl families, rooted to the hoiI tr geu ofPortlaud, Maine The State is thus orations and stubborn of opinion, lodged between tbe two zjnes that cover the continent.. The most no table example, perhaps, ot tbe ad vantages of climate is tbat North Carolina baa m larger variety; of woods than any two Staira in tbe Union. Of tbe 23 vailnieaof os.k in Amvric, 19 are found iu North Carolina. In a one-mile btretca on tbe Blue Bidge slope there 'are more different woods to be foond than in half tbe territory 01 any otber State. ( ; ; I went tbroogh tbe museum) to day with Prof. W. C. Kerr, ;tbe State geologist, a witty man of science, witb boundless energy,' a stenorous voice and bsppj, practi cal torn. Lie exhibited tt hoe ot woods tbat is simply marvelous. Among others waa a f block of per simmon, a wood tbst is in gieat demand in tbe eastern part ot! the 8tate for the manufacture of shut tles. Tairo waa juniper s.nd C.v resa, tbat ia sold in great qctnUiies for telegraph poles ; aDiocaot cam- quapin, two feet across ; mottled cherry and finely grained walnuts. Tbe cherry, which polishes beauti fully, grows,! am Ioiormed,in groves of a mile or two in length and breadth. There is a growing Inter est in bard woods, and mills; are being erected in vsrious parta of the Slate, getting out blocks of wal nut, poplar, cherry, etc, lor ship ment North, to furniture ana piano factories. Professor Kerr Is very bopeful tbat the hard woods ot North Carolina will aoon come Into nniversal repute, when they! will yitld an enormous revenue. Wher ever there aretactoriea in the state, working in wood from axe helves op to furniture, native woods; sup ply almost tbe eutire prodoct, aiid there are considerable exports oer side. There are several gold mii;e. scattered through tbe State, bat I judge investments in them must be speculative for some lime at least. There are floe specimens tf marble ia tbe geol gist a cases, but it brs been impossible so far to discover whether or not it can be found in auClcient qaautlty to quary il prof itably. The iron interests ate being developed, notably by General Iloke and bis associates, but ; tbe treat wealth or 2orth uaroiiua is in her forests of Laid woods,' as tbe coming jers will show.

Such a penny- wise and pound foolish economy will be apt, to show its disadvant age in a contrast witb tb piogrt-s made by Carolina uuuer a more liberal administration. Of all tbe State of the Union North Carolina abowH by tbecensu tbe lament proportion ot native- born popnlatiou surpassing even tbe old Nrw England States in tbi regard. It is a curious fact in ad dition to this thai tberis a larger proportion of perHoaa Ikuu in zorib Caruliua and n w living in otber Sates, than of any otber State.

The wheat rauch of Dr. II. J. Glenn, about twenty miles above tbe town of Colusa, Colusa county, California, is perhaps the largest and best known in tbe State. Tbe Chicago lrxbune says tbat on being asked recently why be raised nothing but wheat, Dr. Glenn replied; "It is the only crop tbat will bear transportation; it is tbe only crop not perishable. I must not raise on my laud what rnius me, but what is profitable.77 Dr. Glenn's ranch comprises about C 0,000 acres of laud, and ihe num ber of acres in wheat each year ranges between 40,000 aud CO OtHl.

The DeJarnette Murder. Baltimore Gazette. Had DeJarnette killed the man responsible for his -hister'a digrace, the unwritten law that justifies such summarv pouinhtneur, would, and witb some teueoii, probably have refuted to bold him to account for tbe ctiine; but his brutal killiug of a defenseless though untortnnate girl was a ciime against' humanity that should have seat the slayer to tbe sea Gold, or at least consigned htm to a life-lone imprisonment. Tne insanity dodge was resorted to by tbe defense, aud with such snc cess tbat tbe prisoner was acquitted after a brief deliberation on tbe part of tbe jnty. The jurors do nor, it appears, express any opinion as to the sanity or insanity of tbe prisoner at tbe present time, but simply find that be was insane tbe lime tbe crime was committed." Tbis is, of course, ntteily absurd. Tbe story of tbe murder showed that DeJarnette was not only per fectly sane, but tbat he planned the crime with the utmost deliberate ness aud executed it in tbe eoolest mauner possible. Tbe criminal re cords of tbe country show the per petration -of few crimes equal in atrocity to that of this man; and none probably where the provoca tion was go slight. If DeJarnette was insane when he commuted this foul deed it h safe to assume that be is still insane aud should be con fined as a dangerous lunatic in an asylum. It is deeply to be regret ted tbatsuch a mau should be allow ed togo unwhipt of justice. It is evident tbat the insanity dodge still holds its own as a means of influ eucing tbe average jury in capital cases. Henry Clay's Heel Mark. Lexington (Va.)TrsDseript. As old citizens of Lexington know, the Sage of Ashland for a long time occupied the brick law office on Short street, next to the alley, and now occupied by L. P. Tarlcton, Esq. " In front oi the office are several locust trees. The one at the corner is decaying rap idly, and the brick pavement near its roots is sunken below the gen eral level. Under this tree Mr. Clay was in the habit of sitting al- ways with his feet elevated and nis heels resting against the tree about four feet above the ground. Few men could sit in an ordinary chair and reach so high on! a tree, but Mr. Clay had long legs, as well as along head. So constantly was he in the habit of sitting in this po sition that the pavement was sunk en, and his heels gouged a deep hole in the bark and j outer wood. The spot has since decayed some, in consequence of the abrasion lrom Mr. Clay's boot heel. Who can tell what thoughts passed through the mind of the great Commoner when thus sitting and ruminating ? Perhaps in front of that modest otti ce, "with bis heels levated, he formed a part of his : great plans, and forged some of the thunder bolts that' shook the American continent. It was in this same office, too. that Mr. Clay was sit ting when the news was brought to him of Jamrs K. Polk's nomina- tion, and beaten " he exclaimed, "I am Sunset lne following paragriph, says tne Aew Orleans pcarcd in the last cr revrcw issued by Washington : " : "The characteris rhpnthjy weath the bureau at ics of the sky i bunsct. as incicaitve oi latr or foul weather for lithe succeedin Iwentyfour hours, have een ' obr served at all signal service station Reports ; from 1441 stations show 4,441 observations to have been made, of which ; 20 were doubtful of the remainder, 4 cent were followed ed weather."
