There are over 30 mineral localities in Rowan county, and the collector of speci mens for the Boston Exhibition; does not feel justified in visiting all of them. The more important localities have been vis ited, and should any remain, of sufficient importance, they will be visited. Where no work has been done it is not deemed advisable to go, for perchance there may be no ore worth taking. Parties who own or control mining property, with good ore on dump, must either notify T. K. Bkuxkb, at Salisbury, or bring him 150 pou uds of the best material obtainable, to secure a place in the coming exhibition. This notice is given because he has been induced to visit some localities where no thing of interest has been found. All in terested in this, and other counties are urged not to fail to give the information desired. jr jiiu I : Cabarrus Mines. - No. 5. The Gibb mining property of 875 acres was formerly known as the Cullen prop erty. It adjoins the Phoenix and! the Fur uiss properties, aud is now owned by Jno. P. Gibb, of TIautz, Eng. A survejr of the property has recently been made with a view of placing it ou. the London market. It contains several good workable veins, from which good dividends could be paid on a reasonable capital with economy ex ercised in the management. The veins on this property which have been worked deepest are, first, the Dutch man vein, to a depth of 120 feet. Consid erable tunneling has been done on this which shows a continuous ore body of over 400 feet in length. Second, the Aarnhart vein, which has been sunk to a depth of 125 feet. This veiu yields a species of copper ore named by Dr. F. A. Geuth, of Philadelphia, "liamkaitite," from the fact of its being first discovered at this point. This veiu has bud furnish ed from the 120 feet level, the finest spe cimens of gold in quartz that has ever been found in this State. Third, the Fisher vein, which had been worked about 40 years ago to a depth of 75 feet, aud those who were engaged ou the work at that time report the ores to have yield ed $150 per ton. There was sufficient evidence remaining on the surface to es tablish the fact that the ores must have bceu very rich. Fourth, the Red Cabiu veiu has been opened to depth of 100 feet. Tlie ore body ou this vein is continuous aud lengthy the ores are rich in quality. There are a number of other veins on the property which have been been sunk to a depth of from 20 to 50 feet, and iu eve ry instance i elding good pay ores. This property when more fully developed than at present, will demonstrate, with many other properties in the State, that gdd mining iir North Carolina can be made permanent aud profitable, when conduct ed systematically and on economical principles.

Tlie Mississippi Flood. THE LEVEE BUILDINGS AT 8T. LOUIS IN VADED BY WATER BUSINESS STOrrED THE FOOD ED FARMERS ASK FOR AID DIFFICULTY IN RAILROAD TRAVEL. St. Louis, June 2fi. On this side of the river the whole of the levee is now sub merged aud in the lowest places the first floors of the stores are flooded from a few inches to a couple of feet deep. Business in houses on the river front is suspended, except in two or three doggeries, where scaffolds have been built aud whiskey is still dispensed at five cents a drink. The Chicago and Alton iu connection with the Indianapolis and St. Louis and Wabash roads, are driving piles iu the break iu their tiack above Venice, and it is ex pected that they will have a good trestle across the gap by Wednesday and trains running again. A large number of farmers and laud owneis on the American bottom and residents of Venice aud other towns be tweeu East St. Louis and Mitcinll, held a meeting at Venice yesterday afternoon and adopted resolutions calling for aid. Many of the people who make their ap peals are camped in tents on the ridges, surrounded by water or iu the open air on tbe blull beyond. Many are also housed in box cars ou the railroad tracks awTa good many of them will be obliged to be fed. Their crops are totally de stroyed aud they are destitute of money aud the necessaries of life. The situation in East fc?trondolet and Cahokia grows worse daily. Tlie water covers the whole of that section of the country. Tlietrailroads which have lost their tracks have abandoned the fei rage system between here aud Alton aud have arranged with the Vaudalia road to run their passenger trains. The I udiauapolis and St. Louis will send their trains to Effiiighuniy-tlieuce toMattooii. The Wa bash will use the Vaudalia to Altnmont, where it will take its own track, aud the Chicago aud Aftou, and Chicago, Bur lington aud Quiucy will run to Smith boro, where they will connect with their town mans, ah oilier eastern lines are Rising their own tracks and all the Wes tern roads are getting trains through with good success. The Vaudalia track about which there has been some appre hensions is still two feet above Water. Mineral Wealth of Central America. Correspondence Mining Record. San Peduo, Central America. June 0, 1883. Sin : As I am in receipt of many letters : or inquiry liom your renders in regard to the mineral wealth of this country, I deem it best for all that I should answer through your columns, nlthough I have seen only this part of the country, yet I feel that from what I have seen and heard, that the other mining locations are about the same. There is no doubt whatever, that there is plenty of mineral here, but not for the man with a few hundred dollars, as everything is very expensive and must be brought from the States, consequently large capital is required here for soccess. In a recent trip over the country, I find many old mines having the appearance of being worked over 200 years ago. The present inhabitants can give no information in re gard to them, but it is generally believed that they were worked by the Spaniards, with Indian labor, as at that time the na tive Indian was iu bondage. In some places the large amount of work accom plished must have taken years and produc ed great quantities 6T gold and silver. I am speaking more particularly of the ore deposits which exist in the mountains. At the old placer mines also, remains of old work is yet to be seen. At one of the old placers we found the remains of what seemed to be an old Indian church, built of rock and lime cement, and many small mounds, showing conclusively that at some time past this country was worked largely as a mining region. From all I can learn 'no immensely rich deposits are found here, but one continual regular mass of ore or gravel, as the case may be. As yet the placers are all worked with simple rocker or sluice box, but at the present time a New York company are placing in hydraul ic machinery, and are confident that the dirt will yield fifty cents to the cubic yard, when they are in operation. As this is the first hydraulic in this part of the country, it is attracting much attention. The gold is mostly small, averaging about pieces of one-quarter of a grain, and is evently dis intuited tnrougli the hard pack gravel banks. Plenty of water and dump are the advantages of the country. I need not mention the vast amount of timber of all kinds. The climate in the mountains is healthy. The days are warm but the niffhts cool, and one always reqnires a blanket. A tew more prospectors huvc come into the country, aud all express themselves as well pleased. But without capital there is no chance here. The mininir laws are verv liberal, and such that a. man can take up his claim, and by continued work hold it. A few successes will bring the country into notice and show good results. As yet all of the ventures are new and not producing. UTMI . - win write you again alter visiting the SantaCruz mine, which is being worked by a French company, where they are erecting a thirty-stamp mill. li. Eames, Jr.. lAVILSON COLLEGE. There were twenty graduates at David son, this year. Gov. Jarvis was selected to deliver the prizes. We copy from the Journal-Ob server as follows: Before proceeding he begged the indul gence of the audience for a few general remarks. He. said that he had always desired to attend a commencement at Davidson, and that he always felt better concerning the work before him nfter an attendance on an occasion id' that kind ; that he saw so much of the material a Inch is to shape the destiny of the country, he could not but hope win n he saw it, prepared as it is, iu this institution. Turning to the graduating class he con gratulated them on one feature of their exercise their hopeful view ol human nature aud the complexion cast ou their oratious from the light and beauty around them. If they would only be good, pure and true in their lifo work, the people would bid t heni welcome and the great popular heart would beat in sympathy with their successes. To the successful contestants he spoke of personal fitness for certain kinds of work aud the lamen table tail u res that result from a disregi ltd of it, saying that he could imagine no greater failure than himself an artist. He then laid down the rule of success in the woid "work" and gracefully delivered the prizes as follows : Rockwell Medal Latin, Win. R. Grey, Hopewell, N. C. Wiley Medal Mathematics, E. B. Mc Gilvary, Cliieng Mai, Siam. Holt Medal Greek. E. B. McGilvary, Cliieng Mai. Siam. Fowle Medal Oratory, Benj. F. Wil son, Mayesville, S. C. HONOR ROLL.

The great social event of the occasion took place in the Campus and Littrary Halls last night. Many young people from Chailotte were present. To-morrow we w.ll publish the presentation of regalias whi n tlie names of the lucky la diu.s will be gieu to the public. The proud position which the United States holds among the nations of the wot Id is clearly shown by the wonderful fact that one-fifth of the wealth of tlie seveniren priucipal conntries of the globe is credited to this Republic, which has only just entered upon the second centu ry of its existence. The wealth of the United States equals the combined valua tion of Italy, Spain, Portugal, India, South America, Turkey, Egypt, Sweden, Norway, Canada, Australia, Denmark and South Africa. It exceeds the wealth of Germany aud Russia combined. It is equal to the wealth of Great Britain, Canada and Australia. Our debt is leas than that of Great Hi i tain by a billion aud a half of dollars ; about three billions less than the debt of France ; a billion less than that of Russia, and nearly a billion less than the debt of Spain and Portugal. The exports of the United States are greater by two hundred mil lion dollars than the exports of any na tion except Great Britain. The cost of running the government in Great Britain is about two hundred million dollars more than the expenditures of the United States; in France, over three hundred millions more ; in Germany, two hun dred and thirty millions more ; in Russia, two hundred millions more, and also greater by many millions in Austria Hungary, Italy aud India. It has been estimated that at the present rate of in crease our population fifty years hence will reach the enormous number of one hundred and ninety million, If wealth increases as rapidly as population, halt a century from now America will be worth almost as much as all other civil ized nations put together (not including China aud Japan) are worth to-day two hundred billions of dollars. These figures of probable population and wealth are rathei too colossal, no doubr,-but we can afford to drop a good many millions in the one case and billions iu the other and yet be able to boast that the bald-headed bird of freedom will in fifty years spread his w ings over the richest aud the might iest division of the earth's surface: Cin. Timcs-Htar. Baby Butcherers. The revolting dis covery of the remains of a score of infants iu the cellar of a house formerly occupied by a so-called doctor up town, will give the public some idea of the extent to which criminal abortion is practiced iu this Christian community. The man Hathaway has been in trouble before, but like most of his kind he contrived to escape conviction, it being manifestly difficult to obtain testimony against an abortionist, except in cases where the crime has resulted fatally to the mother. That murder so unnatural and revolting should be so often resorted to by women not wholly depraved is one of the most frightful results of the prevailing loose morality that finds expression also in the contempt for the marriage bond, and not even the occasional punishment of a pro fessional abortionist will suffice to stamp out this hideous crime. The Hnibiseus and Huthaways are only the instruments of a deeper guilt. Philadelphia Times. Mormon Missionaries. In reproduc ing the article which appeared iu these columns several davs ago ou Mormon operations iu this section of the State, the Tarboro Southerner adds : "In this connection it might be well to warn our people that the Mormon missionaries who, for the past six months have been operating in the lower part of Edgecombe county, are quietly bnt surely spreading their infamous doctrines among some of our white population who are not so well informed as other more favored people it might lie well also tor the two mis sionaries who are at this moment ranging between Penny Hill and Little Creek to read the remedy proposed by our Char lotte, contemporary for getting rid of their kind. Ours is a conservative communi ty, but if they send many- more of our citizens to Utah, a shot gun may be found in Edgecombe as well as iu western North Carolina. A wont to the wise should be sufficient. Raleish Xeirs-Obserrer : The United States and England it seems are the only countries iu which the tiuniiiinity of a jury is requisite to a verdict. In France and Germany the agreement of eight jurors is sufficient, and if the decision is seven to five the side prevails which .receives (he endorsement of the judge or judges on the bench. A similar rule is in use in Italy t a W i aim in dcotluuu, wnere murderers are tried by au assize, or jury of fifteen, a majority verdict convicts or acquits. The abandonment of the requirement of una niuiity would free the jury system of the L mted States of many evils. 1 he agree ment of eleven jurors ought to be suffi cieut for a verdict, and in the opinion of many ten jurors ought to be able to con vict or to acquit. Burke Scenery. Burke county boasts some ot the most interesting scenery iu the Appalachian system. Among the points most frequently visited are the falls of Liuville River, the greatest cata ract iu the State, Table Bock the greatest boulder, and Short-oft Mountain, the highest precipice. The wildest scenery that we have seen anywhere is the almost inaccessible Liuville Canon, below the falls, where for ten miles the stream sweeps through a narrow gorge beneath cliffs that tower above it, and which are only surpassed by the walls of tlie Sa gnenay or the canons of the Rocky Mountains. .Morgan ton Mountaineer. Comedy Outside.-The whole ease is a most shameful ooe, in which the bouft'e element has been very prominent from the beginning, and Dorsey is winding it up suitably. That the two principal thieves would have been, oue a high of ficer of the government, and the other Secretary of the Republican National Committee, and that they should have kept a newspaper duriug the trial to attack the prosecution, and have enter tained handsomely now and then while iu legal jeopardy, make, altogether, a spectacle not often equalled oft' the comic stage. New York Evening Post. Says the Dan bury Reporter: A great many farmers ip this section have not stuck a single tobacco plant, others have planted but a little, while a few have near ly full crops. - Jas. A. Pepper, ot the Pepper Mining Company, informs us that with four hands lie took from the Hawkins mine las't week over 400 pounds of merchantable mica, worth from three to five dollars per pound. He says he will commence work this week at the Steel, Poore aud Fiazier mines. Louisville has done well so far in emu lntiujr the example of Cincinnati iu the organization of her Expositions. How ever, when site introduces the bones of Guifeau as a feature of the affair, she should no longer call it an exposition. It is more on a level with the side show of a circus. Cincinnati Time-Star. The Collectorship. Everett's term expires in a few days, and the question now is, who shall succeed him. Everett himself believes that he will be re-appointed, ilott leans that wav, but not strongly.

Wheeler, Henderson and Iaeli are all in Washington on that business. Richmond, June 26. General James Conner, a distinguished citizen of Sout Carolina, died early this morning at the residence of his father-in-law in this city, aged 54. The deceased was a gal- aut soldier during the late war and lost leg. Since the war he lias earned great reputation as a lawyer in his ua- me owue. uis remains win ue taken to his home iu Charleston for interment. The Lamp Post gives some interesting Old i Fort items, among which is that Capt. Fry has just taken a contract to urnish bO car loads of telegraph poles for a line in Virginia. Also that the same gentleman has taken the contract to build the hotel at Round Knob, aud pro poses to have it finished by fall ; also, ttiat gloUfUUU have beeu subscribed to build a narrow gauge railroad from Round Knob to Mitchell's Peak, a dis tance of 17 miles. Two warehouses attached to the dis tillery of Johu Gibson & Sons, at Gib- sonton. Pa., were burned Thursday, asd lU.UUU barrels of whiskey were destroyed. The loss is put at $500,000. It is said the fire was started by the bnrstiug 0 bn.irel, which threw whisky over a burning lamp. A number of explosions occurred during the progress of the fire, aud fifteen men were more or less seri ously injured. This is the second great fire that has occurred at Gibsons distil lery within six months. It is announced that all the people of Iceland who can scrape together enough money to pay their passage are coming to the United States. Life in that cold island is too much of a burden, to be en dured. The Icelanders are gentle, hon est ami industrious folks, aud will be come valuable citizens of the Northwest where they intend to engage in their old pursuit agriculture. Times -Star. ATT wiiriv 1 Gen. D. H. Hill, President of the Ar kansas State University at Fayetteville, has gone to California to spend the summer. It has been decided to build a new hall jit the University of Aortli Carolina which will accommodate at least 2,000 people ; the old chapel is too small.

Russian men are, as a rule, handsomer than Russian women. 1 he Russian woman lias loud ways and a loud, un pleasant voice. She almost invariably smokes. The Italians have just enforced a wise law which prohibits the sale of patent medicines throughout the kingdom, un less the precise composition of the medi cine is given. Another prohibition convention is to be held iu Ohio under the auspices of the Methodist church. The Republican statjijs men seem to have made a mistake in not com nnt tiny their party more emphatically to the cause of temperance. Three or four sets of hands are at work ou the streets, aud the tour principal thoroughfares will soon be all thoroughly macadamized. Three or four weeks will finish the work. Asheville Qitizen.

The Patriot says the convict force from Walnut Cove, about 100 strong, have reached Greensboro ou their way to the Gulf, in Chatham county, where the work of laying iron for the Cape Fear and Yadkin Valley Railroad will begiu at once. :' Gen. Y'ouiig and Mr. Holtdaiu of the Courier-Journal (not Henry Wntterson as eironeously stated) stopped over yes terday at Asheville, guests of the Eagle. They travel in their splendid coach, and it was pleasant proof of the reality of the new connections to see a "Louisville aud Knoxville" coach on the Asheville side track. Citizen.
