Haynes, Tresler, Holtshouser ami Bar
ser mineral' lands make an what Mr.
F; William s,"the proprietor, lists chris
tened, "Gold Knob." The four, places
aggregate four hundred and thirty acres;
ir this real estate, Mr. Williams paid
thirteen thousand Ave hundred 'dollars.
There,, are ' about one hundred 'acres of
wood land, the balance, under tultiva
tlon. ; i
On the Haynes place, t o shafts 44 to
50 feet deep, have beep sunk in thq last 1&
months. Ores have been shipped to New
York and Philadelphia, and run from $40
to $60 per ton. ' The old works consist of
a shaft 40 feet deep and a "drift"! CO feet
Ores from these old works-average; $32. per
ton. The Viin has baen tapped at-several
places, always showing gold. These arc
brown ores until the water , level U struck,
ivhen they show suluhurets. ' The vein "is
about 5 feet wide.
I On the Trexler property, six veins have
been cut all brown ore and quartz. This
has onlv been tested by pan and is value
kt from $15. to ?40.:. On .t hi? place; there is
a rich bed of grit along a branch and run
hin into a hill, which shows free etfld. It
Is estimated at $1. per yard. - j
On the Holtshouser, one shaft has been
sunk 30 feet brown ores milling $40 to the
tonr Five other veins have been tapped on
this place, aH shovr.ng the same quality of
pres. One of these a 12 foot vein, G feet
down, milled $20 por-ton.
On the Barker, one shaft 35 feet has been
lank, striking a wide vein of brown sul
phuret ore. This has been milled on stamp
mill, without concentration, andj yieldec
57.50 per ton. Three wther veins 'on this
jjlacc have been tapped, but not developed
or tested
Throfjgli these properties runs a stream
of sufticieut volume to run a fifty stamj
,iiiiH, without -using any shaft water
This alone is one of the most Valuable
features of the property. The cost is
srontlv diminished bv the location and

were concerned, even it the company should

afford to allow the road to pass also show
ed that Salisbury was in direct line and that
the com pay wourdt-goToiit of the wiy were

concluded by saying that Salisbury would
do as much as any other town on tlie West

:Mr. J. M. Gray then spoke insisting on
immediate and decided action. Said that
he had passed along the line from ; Jlocks
vUlc this way, and that the people were de
cidedly in favor of the road and that they
would show a "libera I hand. He said he

The Stock Law w nvr absolutely in
force everywhere in K6wan, north of the
Nortli Carolina Kailroad, except is por
tions of Unitv and ScotcH Irish townships.
These exceptional portions of the county
will sooii obtain the fnll beuerits of the
law by 11 vote of the people. The N. C.
Kailroad is the dividing line between the
Stock Law" and the i4iXo Stock Law
districts!'" At' their last rnjeetirij; the Board
of County Commissioners ordered elee

Li taker, on the soatlf side of the railroad.
Them car be o reasmiable doubt about
tha fi iends of the stock law lein;r success
ful iu the elections to lbe held in these
districts, whereupon thojlaw will be imme
diatcly in force in the netO, district, whether
an vntsule fence shall be Mill 6r not.
It is probable, that It iwill never be
uecessary to go to the trouble of erecting
a public -fence at all. j ;Certaiulv, the
Commissioners will never authorize the
erectiao of a fence by taxation',' until all
the territory south of 'the 'rudroad shal
have lHul iih opportunity tsay. "whether
they will not purter tofhsiVe the- benefits
of -the law. la no possible eveut will the
lenco be an expensive oiie. lien it shal
be dchnitely ascertained that any territory
is deletmined to renraiiilouf side the stock
law limits, the commissioners will nroba
bly authorize cheap, temporary fences to
be built wherever it shall be necessary to
close' up the gates along the line. It is
doubtful whether it wili ever be necessa
rv to levy a tax for this purpose, lint if
the necessity, for such a tax shall hereaf
ter be thought to arise, jtive or, teu cents
on the one hundred dollars of real pro
perty, will be amply i siffticient. The
people peed have no feajs about a heavy
tax heiiig imposed upon them. Theconi
missioneis aio not bound to. levy a tax at
all and a3 the law will be 11 full force
whether u fence shall be built or not,
there will bo no need of tiny hurry about
the. matter ; aiidn wise discretion will
unquestionably be exercised by the Board
of Uoniniissiuners. The X. (.'. Kailroad is
already a "lead-line," and 011 both sides
of that line the law woiks lihe a charm
without the slightest difficulty, trouble or
friction. This is proof chnculsive, that it
is possible "for the law toj spread all over
tlie country without the necessity ever
arising tor building another public fence.
All that is required justJ nnv is, for the
friends of the stock law to proceed with
caution, gentleness, and in a spirit of
charity, as the movement .goes on gaining
iu strength, popularity, and :ope of ter
itory. let the law be cnfscel with
tenileiiiess, consideration uud kindness,
towards those who have j heretofore been,

W e auain repeat the advice and warn

coming quickly and win soon prevail over
the whole countv. i dither opposition and

We think our Senator and. Representa

From the signs of the times, the law is
not only going to work wvll, but will be
immensely popular. Those who doubt

na Experiment Station, it will be seen that Solnble Pacific Gnano (tested by th
commercial valuehas held the highest rank among the forty or lifty dillWeot
brands of commercial fertilizers oft'ered for sale in the State.
This is a splendid, but not undeserved, tribnte to the Facile Gnano Compaay,
trlii-li for sixteen vears has niannfaetiired an article universally admitted to uo uu-
snrpassed iu its remarkable effects upon the growth of the great Southern staple.
Indeed, so well known is Soluble Pacific Guano, that we have almost ceased to issue
