Beware ! Some two or three weeks
ago, a person representing himself as an
agent of the "Great Eastern Mutual In
surance Company of Baltimore," made his
appearance here, and, wo learn, has suc
ceeded in persuading several of our citi
zens to take out policies on the lives of
two or more old negroes, whose ages ran
up into the seventies and eighties, prom
ising that in a year they will receive a
bonus of $ 800 en the investment; bat, in
one instance, at least the certificate pur
ports to be issued by the ''Maryland Life
Association," although the agent seems to
represent t lie first named company. One of
this agents ietims, suspect ing that all was
not right, wrote to proper parties in Balti
more the beadquartes of both of these com
panies asking for information as to their
solvency, &c, and the answer was that
"they were no good." Besides, Mr. Wm.
H. Blackford, a gentleman promiuently
connected with the legitimate insurance
business of Baltimore writes that he
knows nothing of the companies, and that
some time ago the authorities of Pennsyl
vania prosecuted the officers of some con
cents of the same description as the above
named, on the ground of swindling, and
drove them from that State. Some of
them, he aays, took refuge in Maryland.
Our town authorities iu the possession
of this information, caused the arrest of
these men last Saturday, and after exam
ination put them under bonds to answer
for violation of the laws .of the State by
issuing policies in a company not lisensed
to de business in this State. It is be
lieved other causes of actiou will also lie
against them.

Such was the pleasant occasion of a
marriage in Salisbury, Oct. 9th, 1883, at
First Presbyterian Church. Mr. Walter
Alexander of Charlotte to Miss Minnie
Ramsay of Salisbury. Ceremony per
formed by Rev. J. Alston Ramsay, broth
er of the bride, assisted by Rev. J. Rum
pie, D.D. The Church was most taste
fully decorated with the many lined
flowers of Autumn the columns wreath
ed, and an arch in the center over which
burned waxen candles, shedding that
soft radiance that only wax candles can
give.
At an early honr the house was densely
packed, but not till 9 o'clock did the
bridal party appear. The music on the
occasion was grand, swelling in magic
chords like waves, as one dies away
another sweet and touching comes on.
The bride's maids glide iuto the Church
looking in their maiden freshness beauti
ful as the morning.
First, Miss Ella Brown and Mr. Archie
Young, of Salisbury; Miss Nettie Ram
say, of Monroe, Mr. J. H. Ho rah, Salis

lotte, Dr. W. L. Ramsay, Mooresville ;
two little flower girls, Miriam Wiley aud
Lilian Foust.
Then all eyes are turned to greet the
bride who comes leaning on the arm of
the groom, and stand under the Floral
arch. She is graceful and gentle, "deli
cate and fair" as the lilies of the valley
that adoru her brow and hold back the
veil that weeps, like misty moonlight
over her long traiu of satin aud soft fall
ing lace.
The ceremony over the bridal party go
to the residence of Mr. McCubbius, uncle
of the bride, where a sumptuous supper
is spread.
The groom with his bride leaves for
Charlotte their future home, on the 12
o'clock train, aud with them goea an earn
est wish for happiness, aud as years on
years have passed away may they find
'There's bliss beyond all the miustrel has
told,
When two, that are linked in one (tea
v'nly tie,
With heart never changing aud brow
never cold,
Love on through all ills, love on till
they die!"
MINING.
T. K. BRUNER, MANAGER.
N. Y. Mining Record, Sept. 29lh.
Boston, Mass., Sept. 18, 1883.
To the Lditor Mining Record:
Sir. I see that some friend has writteu
you in regard to North Carolina's exhibit
of resources here. Thinking that yon
aud your readers might like to know
something of the extent and variety pre
sented, I have concluded to place at your
disposal some statistical facts. Begin
ing with gold ores. We have milling
specimens from some fifteen or twenty
counties as follows: 2 from Burke. 10
Cabarrus, 13 Caldwell, 2 Catawba, 6 Da
vidson, 4 Gaston, 2 Guilford, 3 Lincoln,
19 Mecklenburg, 18 Montgomery, 2 Ran
dolph, 2b' Rowan, 6 Stanly, and 5 Union.
The others are from scattered localities.
From this number, 119 milling specimens,
(besides the scattered ones), some idea of
the extent and character of North Caroli
na's ore deposits may be sained. These
specimens comprise all grades of ore from
the simple free milling slates and milky
quartz, to iron pyrite, iron and copper
pyrite aud auriferous chalcopyrite, gale
na ana other complex ores. 1 hey are
arranged so that they may be easily ex
amined, and we iuvite examination from
scientific men. Oar exhibit of silver ores
comprise some fifteen milling specimens,
the most valuable of which came from
Davidson county, though Rowan, Union,
Caldwell, Cabarrus, Mecklenburg, Mont
gomery and Burke counties also furnish
specimens. There are over thirty milling
specimens of copper ore. Some fifteen of
these are auriferous. The richest and
purest specimens are from Mechlenburg,
Rowan, Cabarrus, Guilford, Watauga,
Ashe and Person. The ore from the last
is exceedingly rich, gray or black copper,
and has only recently beeu brought to
notice. The section is being largely de
deloped aud promises to become one of
the greatest sources for this metal in the
Union.
It may not be well known that a good
many of the Carolina copper ores are
gold beat ing, as, for instance, at Conrad
Hill. Here they ran the ore through
a stamp mill aud save by simple amalga
mation, from seven to ten dollars per ton
in gold, before extracting the copper.
Of iron ores, the exhibit is full and inter
esting, with over thirty specimens: limo
nite, hematite, powder ore, spotted ore
and all grades of magnetite. Some of
these ores have been analyzed, for exam
ple, the Powder ore, from Ormoud Ore
Bank, Carolina Mining Company, King's
Mountain, N. C, specimens taken from
four car loads, gave:

in this country from a single State. There
are fine curled and waved woods for ve

There are many other things of interest
here, but iu anticipation of a visit from
one ot your Editorial staff, who will see
for himself, and through your columns for
yonr readers, I will desist and gladly wel
come him. T. K. B.

Prof. Geo. B. Hauua, of the Charlotte

he does not think the samples as a whole
will go so high, but some of the bet ter
pieces' will.
The Cranberry magnetite is the most
beautiful aud attractive ore on exhibit,
aud is much admired by people who
know something of iron. It may be of
interest to give here four analyses made by
Dr. Genth, and oue by Prof. Chandler of
New York. They are takeu from Kerr's

This ore is remarkable for its toughness
and tensile strength, and is much sought
after. I might go on aud give analysis af
ter auelysLa, as we pass the different piles,
but these; serve to show the quality.
The iron beds of Western Caroliua are
practically inexhaustible.
Coal from the coal fields of both" Chat
ham and Stokes counties, is very fair, be
ing semi-bituminous and bituminous.
Coke is made from it. These coal beds
ou Deep and Dan rivers, are important
but as yet are not developed. The Deep
river coal field is forty-three square miles
in extent aud the depth of the deposit is
six feet. The Dan river bed is about
eighteen square miles in extent and the
coal occurs in eight or more parallel stra
tas of from two to five feet iu thick ness.
In this paper it will be impossible to
go into the general exhibit of minerals,
embracing about 150 varieties which are
shown in considerable quantities, yet a
few of the rarer minerals found iu Prof.
VV. . Hiddeu's cabinet are of sufficient
interest to deserve mention. They are
ores of rare metals of special interest to
chemists and mineralogists:
Yttrium, to the extent of forty per cent,
iu the Fergusonite from Burke coonty.
Thorium, to the amount of six per cent,
iu the Mounzite from the same county.
Cerium, Naothaninn, and Didymium,
in the Mouazitc, Allanite and Samarskite
from many localities.
Zirconium, sixty-eight per cent, in the
Zircons from Henderson county. Over
30 pounds of this mineral were obtained
by two hand with a common rocker in a
few days.
Uranium, pure oxide, and the hydrated
ore (Gnmmite) at many of the mica mine.
Columbiuni, fifty per cent, iu colura-
It Is Coming. The great show em
phatically the show of shows the organ
ized consolidation of the Sells Brothers,
who have for this season so added to its
previous great attractions as positively
te eclipse all other traveliug exhibitions
Always in the van, the Sells Brothers
have so widened the gap between them
selves and the more pretentious of their
rivals, as to make the latter despair o
ever being able to catch up. A glauce
at the bills will satify the most insatia
ble appetite for amusement. There is
the greatest and best selection of eques
trian and general performers in the
couutiy, and a show of the rarest animals
from every part of the world. Tribes of
native Australians, Arabs, Hindoos and
American Indians will add to the intei
est of the exhibition, which will be here
on Thursday, Oct; 11th.
That our readers may judge of the
merits of this vast enterprise, we copy
from the "Courier Journal" the follow
ing :
"It is a big show : it is a clean show ;
it is a respectably conducted show. Noue
of those roucb. rowdysb, tiresome or
annoying teat ores which usually accom
pan v a large circus are present. The
menagerie part is a treat, from its clean
liuess, the size and convenience of the
cages aud condition of thc animals. The
visitor does not find a few worn out
specimens of ill-fed and mangy animals.
so constau ti v exuiulteu us to become as
common as cows. All the living things
are well cared tor, aud are, either rroui
their kind, their size, or their uatuiv
rarely seen in traveliug shows."
Criticism like this from Henry Wutter-
son's well known journal, speaks vol
umes in favor of the Sells Brothers great
show.

The following letter from one of our best
known Massachusetts Druggists should be of
interest to every sufferer :
" Eieht years ago I
had an attack of
Rheumatism, so se
vere that I could not more from the bed, or
dress, without help. I tried several reme
dies without much if any relief, until I took
Ayer's Sarsaparilla, by the use of two
bottles of which I was completely cured.
Have sold large quantities of your Sarsa
parilla, and it still retains its wonderful
popularity. The many notable cures it has
effected in this vicinity convince me that it
is the best blood medicine ever offered to the
public E- F. Harris."

Sarsaparilla. See certificate in Ayers
