A man rode iuto Salisbury about sun up on Monday morning, offering the animal he rode including the saddle and bridle for the sum of $40. The animal was worth hundred or more, and this fact caused a suspicion. He was asked about the mat ter, out raised "pretty" until lie waa finally told that the horse must bedetaiued and that he could proceed on his wttv "n foot," Inch he did. Iu a few hours after his departure a teletrram from Elmwood announced that a horse answer ing the description of the one detained had been stolen the night previous. Mr. Thoe. Vauderford mounted a horse and overtook the thief uear Linwood in Davidson county. He was taken to Elm wood for a hearing before a Justice. He quested to deliver a lecture Wednesday evening. Rev. C A. Munroe, from the Prebytery of Mississippi, applied for admission aa a member of Concord Presbytery. After the usual examination be was formally received. He has already been at work as an evangelist in the Old Fort field, and will return thither. A call for the pastoral services of the Rev. T. G. Thurston, from the church at Wilkesboro, waa handed in and read. They ask for one-fourth ef his time, and offer to pav him 175. At the session of Wednesday morning the Presbytery took steps for the better security and protec tion of tlie obi and valued records of the Church. Mr. White's lecture last evening, as also his trial sermon of the evening before, bore the impress of thought, research, method, aud better still, vital piety. All were gratified after his licensure to learu that there were three applications for his services two in tue uounos oi uoncoru Presbytery and one from Corsica n a, Tex- v v i i a .1 a a. m - as. xouug man use, lie tnougnc iexa waa his proper field, but Presbyters shook their heads and claimed him for services at home.

Mining men have been bosy around the hotels iu Salisbury for the past few days. Among them are, Hon. B. Wilson and Col. Anderson, of the Hearne mine: Judge Hughes and Dr. Rogers ef the Rocky River mine; C. A. Calvert and T. H. Hnlbert, M. E., of the Gold Valley mine ; Col. Jno. Wiley left on Tnesday for New York, in the i uterest of the Par ker Placer mine. The gentlemen with the latest and water process for the treatment of the sulpburet ores of Stanly county, has re turned to New York. After a careful examination of the ores in the above county, it was deemed necessary that in or der to successfully treat the ores by this process it requires that there should be a liberal amount of free gold iu the ores The most simple process of Amalgama tion will undoubtedly accomplish the same result where a "liberality of free gold" is called for. Bnt it must be re membered that in treating sulpha rets by th is pa ten t p rue ess, it needs the existence of the free metal to ensure any marked success. of the town must continue as heretofore. And just here comes a vexing question. Cau weiuduce an active, live element to join a "neigh borhood" where the majori ty of the people are practically opposed to advancement. Reasonably not. Then what is to be done. By concert of action, those who really desire to increase the business of the place, may take hold and show by liberal support to all schemes of manufacturing &o., a determination to bring about tlie desiied end.

A private letter to the editor of this paper says : I regret to inform you of the death of our mutual friend, Mrs. John E. Boger, which took place ou the morning of the 27th ultimo, after au illness of five months aud fifteen days. Her sufferings were light uutil the last few months be fore her death when they became intense, but site bore all with Christian resigna tion ; aud truly may I say she died a peaceful aud happy death. Mr. Boger watched over her day and night during all her sickness, aud though deeply stricken is submissive under the hand which smites. "Mrs. Boger is a loss to our whole community, for truly it may be said she was a friend to all." Tlie deceased at one tiuie had many loving friends in this place, but time has greatly reduced the number. Those of them who still remain cherish her memo ry aa a deatly beloved sister. o Twin Two. The colored people held meeting aud nominated a municipal ticket to be voted ou by the citizens of Salisbury on last Mouday. Their meet ing was unattended by white men. The whites held a meeting for tlie same purpose and nominated a ticket. Their meeting was unattended by colored peo ple. Now, in considering the improved business of the town and her brighter prospects as a business centre, it would be supposed that the thoughtful business men of the place who-composed the meet ing of white men, would probably know best mto whose hands to commit the town aud its interests, yet the result of the election haa contradicted that idea To think that some white meu whe claim to be democrats would deliberately sup port a ticket gotten up by an ignorant. non-tax -pay ing class of people, who are. iu addition to these facts, their political enemies, is humiliatiug aud disgrncefnl to men of ordinary sensibility. o Concord Presbytery, An adjourned meeting of this body as e mli led in the Presbyterian chucrh of this place Tuesday evening last. It waa called to order by the Merderator, Rev. J N. H. Suiiiinerell, and opened with. Rev J. A. Ramsay was made temporary clerk The principal business of this meeting was to consider the application of Mr., A Walker White for license to preach the gospel. Mr. was iuvited to preach his trial sermon. He chose for his text the first clause of the 10th verse of the 3d ch Gal. After the sermon the ;onmf imtion 1 was dismiss d, and Presbytery resumed Mr. Snider, the nominee of both tickets, re ceived a total vote of 501. o The Colntv Commissioners. In pur suance of Section 1 of the Machinery Act, this Board met iu joint session with the Board of Assessors of the several town ships in this county, ou last Monday, aud after due consultation adopted the follow- ng resolutions : Hesolred, That the real estate iu each township shall lie assessed at its true market value, so that equal justice may be doue to the public aud to the tax payers concerned. Resolved further. That the expression "true market value," ia understood to mean the market value in cash, at the place where the real estate is situated at the time of assessment, being the price which could be obtaiued therefor at a private sale aud not at a forced sale. The following routine of business was then attended to by the Board of Com missioners: Ordered, that a public road be opened in Scotcu Irish township, beginning at tlie 12 mile post on the Wilkesboro road and running to a point ou the Statesville road near Third Creek Station ; also, that a road be opened iu Atwell township, be ginning at the China Grove road near Mr Line's, and running so as to intersect i public road leading by Capt. J. A. Fish 's mill. Report of the Bridge Commissioner was received and approved, and lie was di rected to let out a contract to lowest bid der for building a new bridge ou tlie Mocksville road at Correll's mill. An application by Mr. H. G. Tyson to remit taxes en 91,000 worth of stock bonds of the Yadkin Gold Mi ue Company was not granted. The Committee appointed to make quarterly settlements with the County rreasurer, reported that they find all accounts correct, with a balance in tlie hands of the Treasurer, aa follows; Of the School Funds $4250.90 Of county funds 2046.31 different shafts. The stamps and amalgamating ma chinery are running (ouly half time) on the old Field ore. The prospects of this miue (Old Field) are highly eucouragiug, they have strong lode in the bottom, but the old miners have worked out very nearly everything to the present depth, and a much deeper point must be gained ere permanent re turns can be looked for. A level is being driven west 130 feet deep. The level is in tended to communicate with the other shafts and will be under all the former workings. The North Carolina Mining and Devel opuieut Cot, its managers, represeuta- Look at It. Mr. Editor: In the Watcha I saw a report from the Finance Committee of the town show ing the receipts and expenditures for the present year. In that report it was stated that there had been collected over eight thousand dollars iu taxes. I have since learned from a reliable source that of the large amount only about three hundred dollars (or less than one tweuty -fifth) was collected from the negroes. It seems to me that tins is significant, iu view of fact that we are to be governed for the next year by a Mayor and board of Com missioners who were nominated and elected by negroes. Another reflection, winch may be to the edification of the good people of Salisbury is that of the 276 votes which Capt. .Ramsay received 250 were cast by negroes less than one tenth of his vote being cast by white men, now as a matter of fairness and justice to the race that elected the Captaiu and his board the negroes ought to have at least nine-tenths of the offices. And without desiriug to be considered officious 1 would like to suggest that iu considera tion of the not ouly important, but abso lutely necessary services rendered by the colored men aud brethren at the polls, the office ef City Clerk, City Treasurer, - the valuable services of the twenty-five white men, who manfully stood shoulder to shoulder with their colored brethren and voted the ticket prepared for them by a convention com posed of about forty negroes and a scalawag, the office ot Hav weigher might with propriety be giveu to a white man. 1 lie negroes certain ly did IROl WOHES JOHN WILKES, PROPRIETOR.
