' - WONDERFUL- IF TRPE The Charlot'te Observer of the 14th, gives account of a new aiid tvbn4rful process for preserving Fruits, Vegetables, Meats, &c,,'teBted in llie presence of some 6f the profuineni citizens of that place last Monday. It is the discovery of two gentlemen of Texas, Gen. A. T. Haw thorne and Col. Chas. Baeke'rville, who offer to sell " the right' of the State 'for 120,000. t he greatest part of the wonder is the cheapness of tljja process : It is ' a fluid prepijrat'jpn cosing only fifteen cents per' . barrel, If" we" mistake not. Next to that is 't perfect preservation whicli it ensures! "H the discovery is indeed ivhat is claimed for it, it ought to be bought by the State or tho general go v- , ernment and given to the people. Sorgum.-lheire is a largely increased interest in thisp'art'of the State in fhe production of this article. Almost c'very farmer has his cane patch this year, and Will produce syrup sufficient for his own !se, and many of them will have a sur- - pus. They are introducing improved machinery and ovaporatar and aiming to manufacture a superior"' articled. This js-a step in the right direction and will save thousands of dollars to tho farmers of Western North Carolina. Mrs. Rich.

' : i APPOINTMENT OE CONSTABLES. We see in the papers no little sajd in regard to the proper authority "to ap point constables in the various Townships wherp po election' was hehj fcr ! siicu o8 -cers en 'the first Thursday in August. In Mecklenburg wc see the County Commis sioners appointed constables, but such , appointees becoming alarmed lest they had not been duly appointed, can- . didates were beseiging tho Governor for such appointments. 1 Wc understand he Cqunty Commissioners of Rowan made sqcb appointments when nsked to do so and in doing so, it sceuis to" ije' did right. Section 24, of the 4th article of tne araen 4pd Constitution, says: "In eachjp'6unty f'a sheriff and coroner shall be elected, 'and in pRch.';Tiwnship there shall be a constabl fyectpd like manner, &c,. "In cas'pf vacaiicy" pjisting for any "cause in ifty"of the offices tfreatedby this 'section; the Cpmmissioners of the Cojirity "may appoint to such oflSce for the uno j "pired terinil Now the constables term pf office elected under the old constitution expired the 1st Thursday in August, and so tljprp was' no constaliieg elected in ma py counties to fill the vacancies occasion- :i M by the expiratjpn 9f the term of service pf gie constables 'in1 office at tlie time llie amended ' constitution went into effe'ef .andthewdrdsforanycause'' vvaslhouTit I o be comprehensive eppagh Q cover ?ue pase, and the County OomniiWoners'rpAjle such appointments.

The -Oiinds ot all .were .well pre pared to. receive them; and we arc fully persuaded that, if obeyed, they will secure a prosperous future to the congregation. They were such, ns God's word enjoins, and the neglect of whicli incurs his displeasure, but the practice of which is always ac companied with his blessing. The relation of pastor and people is a mutually endearing one. No man of natural affection can be associated with a congregation for even a short period without forming strong attach ments, and drawing forth measurably :i reciprocal feeling; and this tendency is rendered-more intense and decider! by the solemn convjotions drawn from the divine realities of the Gospel its cheering verities of hopo and faith taking hold upon the "life eternal." The sundering of that relation hasal ways been to us mo.st painful, as we presume it is to pastors generally. Our pastoral intercourse with the Salisbury congregation was uninter ruptedly pleasant. In no .instance did H'e ever have an unkind or disre spectful word spoken to us; uor do we know of one instance, while among them, of evil having beeu spoken of us.: And it is due, further, to say of the community of Salisbury , gen erally that they treated us with habitual kindness and res petit. In no. locality have we found the citizens more uniformly courteous than were those of Salisburv toward us during our short stay among them. And we parted- with them reluctantly, and with the earnest wish and prayer lor their temporal and eternal good. St. John s ilv, Lutheran congrega tion of Salisbury, we hope, will soon again enjoy tiis faithful administra tion of the diviue word, from the moqth of a pastor sent of God, and whom, as laboring among them, they will "esteem very highly for his work's sake."

We. the undersigned, have used Harris7 Em pire Compost the past year, and take pleasure in saying that it is by far the best and cheapest Fertilizer that we know of. We intend to use more largely this season. F. A. ARCHIBALD, E. C. MORRISON, WM. L. SA PP, JACOB BARRINGER, Dr. D. W. FLOW. Ulexcove, N. C, Nov. 30, 1875. This Is to certify that I ha ye used five tons of the Harris Empire Compost this year, and find it equally as good if not better than any commercial fertilizer I . have used or noticed used, even at the cost of sixiy dollors per ton, making an increase of 100 per cent, on stubble lands. 1 expect to buy more largelv next year. F, A. ARCHIBALD. Pleasant Valley, Lanchester County, S. C, November, 1875. This is to certify that I have used Harris' Empire CompoKt and am well pleased with it, as it not only prevents rust, but is as good as any ofthe high priced Guanos, the cost per ton making it the cheapest Fertiliser sold. W. p. HYATT. Greenville County, 8. C, 1S7G. This is to certify that I used Harris Empire Compost last year on my land for Wheat, and though I did not give it a fair trial as I left out one of the ingredients, but must say thai where rt was used my wheat was never better, and where I did not use it I find that it was very indifferent. I hall use six tons this Spring. I consider the formula invaluable to farmers. Yours respectfully, - W.F. PENNTNOTGX. Gastonia, X. C, 1S76. Messrs. Wilson Black Gcnllcmcn: It gives me ranch pleasure to state that I used the com post bought of you last winter, and must say that I am highly pleased with it. I used it on an old broom sedge field that wotdd produce nothing, and must say the result is astonishing. I consider it an invaluable compost, and just the thing to bring out our old worn out lands. Yours, verv respectfullv, Dr. J. F. SMYER. Mecklenbui g, Co., X. C, 1876. I take pleasure in dating to my brother far mers all over the country that I. used, last year, Harris Jbmpire Compost, under loth corn and cotton and the result was astonishing to all my neignoors. The rost was only one-fourth of what I had been paying for commercial fertilizers. LENS HOOK. Mecklenburg. Co.. N. C 1876. This is to cestify that I used Harris Empire last year sine oy sine witlj several commercial fertilizers' and I find that the yield from Harris Compost was one fourth greater and the quality better than any. It makes the cotton mature better, and in my judgment, it is preferable in every respect. The cost was one fourth the cost ofthe high priced guanos, and one ton will go over ten acres of land.
