It is being worked by two colored men in a primitive way, they have taken out about 260 d wt. of gold, by milling a tew bushels of the ore on a little one- horse Chill ian mill. There are three Well defined veins of high grade brown quartz ore, extending about three quarters of a mile on the property, making one I of the finest prospects ever discovered in in this county. The mine is now control led by Dr. H. R. Rogers and Mr. Wat. A. Smith, of Concord, who propose to organ ize a com pan y with capital to develop and work the ores in a systematic war. At the NEA LI, MINE, about two miles from M t. Pleasant (re cently purchased), the work of placing ma chinery and, mining is actively progress ing. They expect to commence milling ore next week. The outlook is flattering for good results. 'I I - Al i ue owners oi uie s ROCKT RIVER MINE are putting up a ten stamp mill in place of theTasker pulverizer, which was found to be valueless by them for their ore The work of milling will begin at this mine about the last of this month. They lave a large body of veny good grade ore on the dumps and in sight. The Phoenix and Tucker mines both at work on sulpboret ores. the Mears Chlerinatioa plant.. there but nothing was done. A year ago the place was rediscovered. Very quietly purchases of the land have been made. Now twenty shaft nro down, 200 mrn are at work, and heavy shipments of ore are being muds to New York. Boston people are heavy invcatera there, while note few New Yorkers are interested. n fact, said Dr. Ledoux. the purchases of mines here are nearly all made in a qniet way. iMothinjr is to be done in the war of speculative mining, bnt when a man makes op his mind to buy a raining pro perty, then comes end lives at the spot, ooks after bis mine as he would after is store, be is sure to make, with eood judgment, 30 or 40 per cent on his in vestment. In no State does such mining pay as well as in North Carolina. News and Observer. At Boston. The Make. yard near Goidonsville, owned by Frash & Co., of New York.

Another busy week the rush for grand openiug Wednesday, the 5th, has subsided, and while the Fair is open to visitors, yet it is really not ready to re ceivc them. The North Carolina exhibit was the ouly display that was in shape and as a consequence, was visited by the throng. Those who were fortunate enough to possess tickets went to the auditorium aud heard the speeches. Gov. Jarvis' remarks were received with great ap plause, and even enthusiastically. After the addresses, a great many visi tors came to the office of the North Caro lina Department and extending their hands, offered congratulations, saying: "We have heard your Governor, and we like him ; he is a plain, honest talker, and speaks to the point. New England Boston Advertiser. But the chief feature of the exhibition is the contribution from North Carolina, and because the State has sent so much is doubtless one reason why Governor Jar vis was called upon to respond for the South.

Our splendid display is the chief resort of all the Old North State'sjxhibit, aud the Art Gallery are he only places in the building worth visiting, aud that too by a Maine man. People from that cold country seldom make farvorable remarks ia regard to our sunny clime. It is hard to calculate the amount of good this great work on the part of our State will produce. That it is money well spent cannot be doubted. Mr. Jne. T. Patrick, general State Immigration Agent, is here and is kept busy locating people and giving them information in regard to our State generally. That an influx of capital aud settlers will follow is a fact which also cannot be doubted. Many citizens of Salisbury remember the spotted rock taken from "Cooleemee," the residence of Mr. Frank Brown, iu Davie county, as being a stone of pecu liar formation and beauty. As anticipat ed, it has created a sensatioa among sci entific men and stone workers. Among the differing opinions, Prof. W. . Hid den says that " litic dolerite it is plainly a metamor phosed rock of some description or other. The nodules which make up nine-tenths of the rock are composed of dark green dogite (?) having a nucleus of either quartz or feldspar. These nodules are about half an inch iu diameter and are very regular in size and distribution." This theory may, or may not be correct, and as opinions are given, we shall reeord them. The stone takes a beautiful, mir ror-like polish, whieh brings out the deep olive green spots iu all their richness of color. Ihe visit of Governor Jurvis cannot corruption inevitably consequent upon the collection of the revenues of a gov eroment such as ears. Experience shows that these objects are best effected by the theoretically inferior method of iudirect taxation (imposts) aud not bv the theo retically superior method of direct taxa tion which produces what we know as internal revenue. "And when the purpose of the Demo cracy of North Carolina ia this respect which we doubt not will be formally made that of the party at large- is accomplished, ample field for applies tion of the doctrine of light burdens for necessaries and heavier for luxuries, will be found in the readjustment ef a tariff which now taxes diamonds 10 per cent and bankets 100." The resolution referred to reads follows : Eesolved, That we are in favor of the entire and immediate abolition of the en tire revenue system with its attendant corruptions, and that we denounce the present tariff laws as grossly unequal, unjust and vicious. We favor such re vision ot tne tarin as will produce a revenue sufficient for the economical sup port ef the government, with such inci dental protection as will give to domestic manufactcres a fair competition with those of foreign production. That there should be an immediate repeal of all Uncs imposing a direct tax for the support of the government of the United States, but if it should prove impracticable to abolish the internal revenue system with all its attendant demoralization, frand and cor ruption, then we ogre upon our Senators and Representatives iu Congress the importance of so an. ending the law that the re venae officers who new receive iu salaries in North Carolina alone more than $500,000 shall be elected by the people of the localities to which they are assigned." The last canvass was made squarely for the repeal of the system and the wiping out of the entire direct tax. And this together with the words italicised by us would seem to sustain the view taken by the able editor of the Fayettevill Observer. Probably he is quite right. But however that tie, there is one thougut in this connection that ought not to be lost sight of. It is this; That whether the convention favored this immediate and entire repeal ef the revenue system because of its attendant corruptions, or because it is ah anomaly in our laws and as it tends to centraliza tion is anti-Democractic in principle, yet the convention never for a moment dreamed of saying that the Democracy proposed to tax necessaries rather than luxuries. That qnestien was not in volved in the demand for the repeal ef the odious, corrupting aud centralizing internal revenue system. of wood surmounting the massive trunks the Concord, which latter he thinks should be planted on high ground, giving tne Nortou the low ground.

A lady living in Brooklyn claimed to have seen the fight. She says that the wife, ac companied by a young man and woman, followed the husband and domestic to where they were sitting. Then the wife sat dowu on a grave near by aud began to cry. Suddenly, springing to her feet, she seized the woman who was with her husband, and, tearing off her hat, ex claimed, "How dare you two to be here over that grave t" The women clinched and fell to the ground, meanwhile doiug all the damage they could to each other.

The preliminary report of the Utah Commission seems to show that whatever were the results of the last election the Commission were not at fault, and that Uie Edmunds law, was insufficient to effect what it was i a tended to accomplish . In fact the Commission made such a nse of their powers that not euly the law, but their actions under the law, are to be judged by the courts. A few figures now published show that while it is a comparatively simple matter to deprive a man of his vote, on the charge of being a polygamist, it is almost impossible to secure his conviction for polygamous practices.

"Go West" is still the cry with many. Some people in Virginia think and talk about western fortunes as if all they had to do to come into posses sion of a fortune would be to emigrate it appears to be a spha-ru- aud settle West, and the fortune would fall into their lap like a ripe apple. But what a mistake. Western fortunes are not made in a day. Money dou't grow on trees in the western States and Terri tories. It is the experience of every man who has goue West from Virginia that if he had put forth the same indomitable energy, pluct and perseverance, and had been willing to make the same sacrifices in his native State that he has been com pelled to make out West, his condition? every way, would be greatly improved. Aud, then, think of the dangers of the West. Cyclones every few weeks, in creasing iu frequency and destructive power; uobody's life nobody s property- is safe. Let no Vuiriuian think about going West, but wake up to a proper con ception, due estimate and appreciation of the almost imperial possibilities of our grand old commonwealth. Let Virgin ians go to work aud develop her resources and establish their homes amid the ad vantages of good society, good schools, good roads, orthodox churches, grand water-ways, and profitable prices for the products of the sou. It is meiancnoiiy spectacle to witness in our cities, towns aud villages the crowds of idlers lounging about the streets and stores, with nothing to do because they don't want to do anything. This helping John Nobody to do nothing, with comma uistic envy of the sober aud industrious is the bane of the world. It is heaven's order for man to earn his bread by the sweat of his brow. Work is bread and meat. Man needs bread, but there are too many who are willing to eat the bread of other men s labor and industry and frugality. Onr advice to all is to qo to work: do something, and you will be useful, honorable and happy.

Th September returns to the Department of Agriculture indicate a lower condition of corn than in August in every section of the country and in nearly every State. The only gains in the west are in M,ssoo ii, Kansas and Nebraska, where a slight improvement is indicated. Minnesota stands as in Angiut, Arkansas makes a gain of one point aud Georgia aud Ala baina remain as in August, but all the other cotton States show a heavy decline. Hie figures are also much reduced foi each ot the Middle States. Tho corn sui- lus States show changes as follows Ohio a reduction trom o'J to p, Michigan 63 to 60, Indiana 95 to 85, Illinois 86 to & Iowa 85 to 80. The increase in Mis souri is from od to 84, Kansas W to 101, Nebraska 84 to 87. The decliae iu New York is from 77 to 70, and in Pennsylva nia 99 to 89. '1 he general average of the condition on the hrst of September was 84. a decrease of five points during the last mouth. The cause of this reduction, so nearly universal, is the drought which ia reported from every State of the At lantic coast and Gulf coast and Ohio val ley and beyond the Mississippi to the crest of the divide between that river and Missouri. Between the Ohio river and the lakes the distribution of rain has been uueqnal--in a few places in excess while a deficiency is generally reported. The crop is uear.'y everywhere late, re quiring ono or two weeks' longer season than ustial to mature. Where Kansas aud Missouri seed was olauted in more northern territory the crop is still later, causing much appre hension as to ripening. Y bile the plant ing was late the early season w.ns too wet with a drought following. Ihe average temperature of the summer has been low making a full yield an impossibility.

The loss is heavy in Wisconsin and Minnesota. There is also some injury in New York aud Pennsylvania. While tire, damage cannot yet be clearly determined, it is certain that the frosts have already re duced the geueral average below 80, though much of the heaviest corn of the west is beyond injury. The condition of the wheat when harvested, as reported in these returns, averages 83, which indi cates the product to be 17 per cent, less than the vield of last year, or a loss of 80,000,000 bushels. The crop of oats will be laige, the general average being 99. H. N.
