lar proves the point of value in a enrreu
ey of any kind. It has been persistently
claimed by the enemies of the standard
silvei dollar that the chief point of its
'kleliciency. was its lack of weight ; its
bullion value was too small to entitle it

Prog toss of the Cholera.
The disease is 'believed to have broken
out among the British troops in Cairo
and Alexaudiia and at the cabinet coun
cil Saturday the question of transferring
the whole army from Egypt to Malta 4r
Cyprus "was seiionsly debated. Ou the
recomniendalioiFof Lord Wolseley how
ever it w as decided to retain them where
they are for the present. So far tho dis
ease seems chiefly confined to tour tow ns
on the eastern branch of the Nile. In
Damietta about 1,000 have perished, or
about one in every thirty of the inhabi
tants. At Shirbin a small village of mud
huts thirty miles up the Nile, there have
been nine cases within forty eights hours.
In Mansurah, twenty. miles further up, the
death rate has risen rapidly from six to
sixty a day. The town contains about
10,000 inhabitants and is a local centre
oftrade. From this, point it has spread
to MenzaJeh, on the hike id" that name
The next' outbreak was at Snmanond, s
small village on the Nile about fifteen
miles further ui. It is noticed that the
disease, as in former instances, is steadi
ly following the course of a great river. It
is now ouly seventy miles from Cairo,
and should it reach that city a heavy
mortality may be anticipated in the
Arab and Jew quarters, which consist of
narrow streets, many of them ending in a
c il-de-sae, without drainage or sanitary
arrangements of any kind.
It seems the disease was due in Egypt
in 1877, it having put in an appearance
regularly every twelve years since 1cfl,
spreading always to the west ami taking
two yeais to exhaust itself. In every
previous instance the epidemic bus devel
oped enerjry amiiiiK the" oiiental races
and thence spread into Europe. The
exodus from Egypt is likely to carry the
infection to the adjacent towns of.Syiia,
especially to Reyrout, whence it may
spread to any point on the Mediterranean.
The disease is undoubtedly Asiatic chol
era of the most virulent type. Most of
the cases occur among the lower classes,
and a huge majority are fatal.
From Wilmington Stat.
A special correspondent of the Louis
ville Courier Journal has been visiting
Western North Carolina and w rites more
than two columns of enthusiastic praise
and description. He writes of the mag
nificent scenery, without a rival this side
of the Rocky mountains; of the cascades
at Warm Springs ; of the beautiful fails
of Catharine May ; of a visit to Toweriug
Hlufl' mountains : of the boundless hospi
tality und the cultivated resi cuts at the
Springs. We make one brief extract :
'lt was at Warm Springs that the
scene of Mrs. Francis Hodgson Burnett's
uovel 'Louisiana,' wits laid, and it was
here that she wrote 'Erfmeinlda,' that
has cheered the hearts of so many lovers
of the pure and beautiful in art. 'Chris
tian Re-id,1 Miss Fisher, North Carolina's
noted novelist, wrote her delightful book
'The Land of the Sky,' descriptive of life
in these, grand mountains that have
thrown a magic spell about us and held
ns while our hearts and eyes turned loud
ly toward the old Keutuckv homo,
AH Europe is much alarmed over that
awful scourge, Asiatic cholera, Jt is al
ready at the port of Marseilles. Its
chaneejor rushing over Europe is good,
and it may cross the Atlantic to our
shores, The New Orleans J tines Leio
craf says of Ha course :
"It infects the water, it infects the
ships, it is borne on the very breezes.
Europe has fought it for years, hut it can
not boast that it has ever kept buck this
disease, which comes with certain but
irregular tread. There is one favorable
feature ahout the propagation of his dis
ease the slowness with which jt moves.
While much U vague aud uncertain about
this disease, its origin and course of
travel never varies. The .cholera is al
ways born in India, ou the banks of the
Gunges. Its route to Europe is always
the same, westward to Egypt anil Persia,
aud tlieuce into Russia. It nearly al
ways lingers iu that Empire a year or
more, and suddenly makes its appearance
in the north of England. From England
it travels to Prance, from which it springs
suddenly to Canada and New York, to
make its way rapidly through the United
States into Mexico aud South Ameiica.
Wo hope to have the pleasure of stating
throngh these columns before many
months shall have elapsed that the num
ber of establishments for converting the
sul phn rets into sulphuric aeid has been
increased by the addition of one, and
that one in Davidson County. The snl
phurets exist iu abundance, and can be
converted at small expense in connection
with the work of reducing ores. The
only question is how to utilize the acid
where it is made, and this seems to lie
solved by the discovery of immense beds
of phosphate rock on the Cape Fear.
When the C. F. & Y. V. Railroad is com
pleted to Greensboro, the phosphate can
be transported at a slight expense to the
place w here the aeid is made, aud manu
factured into fertilieers.
We are informed that one of the largest
reducers of ore in Swansea, Wales, reaps
his largest profit from the manufacture
of commercial manures. He not only
utilizes all the acids he -saves from his
ores, but he purchases all that is made at
the other reduction works at the same
place. He has a large fleet of vessels
carrying phosphate from Charleston, S
U.. lor the fertilizer business. It seems
reasonable, therefore, to suppose that if
the business is profitable where the ma
terials have to be transported so far, it
would be very remunerative where the
principal ingredients are found so near
together. The attention of capitalists is
being called to this fact and it is not im
probable that something w ill grow out of
it soon.
A few weeks ago we said that there is
good prospect that reduction works
will be erected and put iu operation at
Thoinasville before long. We have receiv
ed information to the effect that the pro
ject is taking shape. When the reduction
plant is erected, it w ill cost but little
more to save the sulphuric aeid, and util
ize it iu the way we have already shown.
The profit 8 will be immense, and there
will be no difficulty iu selling all the fer
tilizers that can be made.
We have thus briefly outlined an ini
poitaut industry that may confidently be
expected to be in operation in this sec
tion at no verv distant dy, though for
the present it may be delayed throngh
the shortsightedness of capitalists; but
it is sure to come some time or other.
The opportunity exists. Somebody w ill
embrace it and reap a fortune; but who
shall it be ? Jhtri.lsori Jji-jtafch.
A Very Flue Surgical Operation.
Dr. A. C. Pot, of New York City, ns
siftted by Dr. J. Parks McCoiutm, f this
city, last Monday evening perfm un d :i
remarkable opci.-itiou ou the leg of Mr.
J. M. Roark, who whs injured tit the St.
Catharine mine, in June, 1682. The ex -
plosion occurred on the llth day of that
month, and Mr. Koaik hud an arm und a
leg broken. The fractured limbs were
set and the arm healed all rijiht, but the
bones in the leg failed to knit, ami Mr.
Roark had since, been unable to walk,
save by the aid of erutehe.s. Dr. Cost
arrived in the city Sumbiy, and Monday
evening he went to work ou tho leg. The
patient was put under the infhun -eof
ether, aud remained so for the space of
two hours, the time occupied iu perform
ing the operation. The d.'!i was cut
away from the bone at the place where
the fracture was made, when it was found
that the bones instead d' uniting, had
been turned down at the edges and gristle
taken out, when the bones were care
fully sponged and dried and then drawn
together. Dr. Cost then adjusted the
bones by means of iron wire, arranged to
hold I lie end firmly together. Tho wound
is left open so that when tho bones be
comes adheteu, wirch will le 111 the
course of two week, the wiie can be
taken out and t hi; ties! 1 sewed up. It was
on the Whole, a rare and delicate opera
tion, and was most successfully peilorm
ed. Mr. Roark haa suffered long and in
tensely with his leg, but his friends hope
that the trouble is nmv ended, and that
he will soon be able t go about ou good,

A Child Woman.
Wheeling (Va.) Special.
There is in Hampshire county, in this
State, a human monstrosity which excels
anything Baruum ever exhibited, It is
a young woiuan,r child, born in Penn
sylvania in 18(i5, and therefore eighteen
years old, who is iu everything but age
an infant. She is the daughter of Mr.
John E. Miller, of Shanesville. A gentle
man who recently saw her and learn
ed her age from reliable authority,
found her lying in a cradle. She is
twenty-eight inches in height and weighs
but twenty-live pounds. She cannot walk
or talk, and eats nothing but milk, which
is ied from a bottle. She has, however, a
ipuck perception and remark able mem
ory, and a brief poem or seutenee repeat
ed to her once and weeks alter again re
peated to her with hut one word varying
arouses her anger and she frowns at the
changed word. An article laid down iu
the room and in Iter sight may be allow
ed to remain for days, yet an inquiry for
it will be answered by the child pointing
in its direction. She is quite an attrac
tive baby, aud no reason for her stunted
growth has ever been assigned. The facts
narrated above seem to be well attested,
and many physicians have, visited the
child without b-. ing able to even conjec
ture the cause of condition.
