MINING.
T. K. BItUNER, MANAGER.
Gold Hill. The following is the re
sult of the assay made by Proft Thomas
Price, of San Fraucisco, in his report on
this property :
Ore from bottom of Randolph shaft,
averages $57. Six hundred foot level,
$458. Reservoir, $290. Bernhardt shaft,
$219. Old Field, $20.
Prof. Price is oue of the most reliable
experts and assay ists in California. This
favorable report ou the iniue has been
made and sent to London to the di
rectors; which -no doubt will shortly
be published iu full. A report of this
kind, coming from a Californian, about
North Carolina mines must and will have
a salutary effect and wilLprobably be the
best thing that could have happened for
North Carolina.
Dutch Creek. The proprietors here
are sill sinking, and taking out ore daily;
some of which shows much free gold as
large as piu beads.
At an annual meeting of the stockhold
ers of the Dutch Creek .Mining Company,
held some few days since, J. J. Newman
was elected President, Treasurer and
General Manager; and Thos. K. Banner,
Secretary. The Board of Directors elect
ed are as follows : J.J. Newman, presi
dent, If. L. Holmes, Kerr Craige, T. K.
Bruuer, and W. N. Newman.
Lemtz Mill. A rich find has been
made by prospecting ou this property by
Col. Davidson and Hou.4J. Wilson. The
oie - is said to be worth several hundred
dollars per ton.
There are said to be two or three hundred
New Euglandera already in the eastern
; part of the State reconoitering the) coun
try with the view of making invest
ments. Besides these a large party of
excursionists from Bostou will be ou iu a
few days. This is one of the direct results
of our Huston exhibit.
M & M Institute. N. C, Dep't.
Boston, Oct. 27, 1883.
This brings us to the last week of the
fair. The attendance increases as the
end approaches. To-day there is not less
thau sixteen thousand people iu the
building. During such a rush the force
is kept exceeding busy in furnishing the
people with out State publications. Mauy
thousands have been scattered throughout
New England. We are giving maps of
our State, three or four editions of the
Monthly Bulletin, which contains valua
ble scientific and general information,
furnished through the Agricu.turul De
part men t. This information is thorough
ly reliable and is presented in the most
readable style. Dr. Daduey furnishes
the scientific part of this information. - In
addition to these publications, the Hand
book of N. C, is placed where it will do
the most good, aud to people, who are
directly interested in the subjects, copies
of Hales' "Woods and Timbers," and the
"Coal and Iron counties of North Caroli-
n a" are jiresc-uted.
The probable result of the work done
here will be, first: a large addition to
the wealth of the State iu capital inves
ted iu mines, forests and agricultural
lands. Second : in a very considerable
accession to the population of the State
by the immigration of men with some
capital, who propose to make that and
their acquired skill in various industries
pay them a larger interest thau they can
possibly get iu New England. Filially ;
in the obliteration of all misunderstand
ings aud the promotion of a thoroughly
good feeling between our people and
these New En "landers which-- will re
suit iu close reciprocal relations In the
future and thus add greatly to the mu
tual prosperity of the sections.
If these results are consummated, and
there is no room for doubts on this score
then the Department of Agriculture wil
have accomplished for North Carolina
and for the South, what only years of
tedious and unsatisfactory dealing, ming
led with so re misunderstandings could
have brought about. That "bugaboo,"
the bloody chasm, is fouud to a pigmy
trench which Corar. McGehee has com
pletely filled with 30 car loads Of the
products of the Old North State. Thse
who have been eugaged iu the work feel
very much encouraged, and all the peo
ple from our State who have been here
and saw "for themselves are eucouraged.
The new, or industrial era, which has
waked our people and set them to the
great work of developing eur resources,
(aud they are untold as yet,) has spread
its influence until all New England is
aglow and every day people are going to
the land of congenial climate and long
crop growing seasons. Immigration agen
cies are being established iu Boston, New
York aud York, Penu. These oftices are
vending settlers, and so the work begun
will go on, and must prove conducive to
the mat mi. 1 1 advancement of our agri
cultural and mining, and to the wealth
of our people. Jn mining, agriculture
and sheep raising, a number of gentle
men have interested themselvesthey
represent about $500,000 of capital. Thus
Shows something of the i in mediate
results. The Atkinson Colonial Associa
ciation, recently formed, and which held
its meeting here on last Wednesday, has
73 members, heads of families, who have
organized for the purpose of going to
North Carolina to settle. These are men
ot some means the reported standing
of each is linn 3 to 12 thousand dol
lars.
Aside from this, an efcursien bus been

A Terrific Explosion.
Mass of Dynamite Ejcphdes, Bloivs
tve Men tu if ray incuts ana shat
ters Houses for Miles Around.
Pittsburg, Pa., Oct. 29. Yesterdav
morning at Brooks' tunnel on the Balti
more & Ohio railroad eighty five miles
from this city, twelve hundred pounds of
dynamite exploded, killiug five men, the
crew of a freight train side tracked a
short distance from the scene. 1 he men
were walking along the track near where
the dvuamite was stored.
The railroad company has beei
strengthening and widening the tuune
and some distance outside a. magazine
had beeu erected, in which was stored
1200 pounds of dynamite, to bo used for
blasting. A freight train had just passed
through the tunnel and was side tracked
to allow a passenger traiu to pass. Four
of the crew of the freight train walked
to the visiuity of the magazine, and were
eugaged iu conversation with the watch
man when the people living iu the
viciuity were startled by a U-rrifiic cou-
cussiou. nouses ior id mites around
were tdiakeu to their foundations, and
windows for a distance of 7 miles were
shattered. The horror stricken people
ran from their houses aud it was fouud
that dynamite had exploded. Every
thing near by gave evidence of the ter
rible force of the explosion. Trees were
uprooted, huge rocks torn asunder aud
telegraph poles for a half mile were pros
trated. Nothing remained of the maga
zine, and the men who stood near it just
before the explosion were missing. Por
tions of the bodies, including legs, arms,
hands and heads have been picked up
half a mile- distant, but so disfigured as
to be unrecognizable. The uames of only
three of the victims are known, George
Reynolds, engineer, Tise, a brakesman
and Hammond a switchman.
The cause of the explosion is envelop
ed iu mystery, and ns the five men who
might have thrown some light on the
accident are dead, it is probable that the
cause will never be known. Not. far from
the scene a gun was found, and it is sup
posed that one of the victims discharged
it, the concussion causing the dynamite
to explode. An inquest was held to day
by the coroner and a verdict of accidental
death was rendered. Great excitemeut
prevails and liundieds of people have
gone to the scene of the disaster.
A Mill for Making Patent Flour.
The new structure at the Air Line de
pot, opposite the west front of Wilkes'
nou works, to be used by Phelps Broth
ers as a flouring mill, is now almost com
plete aud ready for the machinery. The
building is only two stories high and is
not what might be called an imposing
structure, yet the machinery within n
will have a capacity ot making fifty bar
rels per day of the finest brand of patent
flour. Phelps Brothers will equip their
mill with the smallest machinery that
can be used iu the making of patent flour,
and the equipment of the mill will cost
7.500. They will make the brand of
patent flour, using the steel rollers aud
all other improved machinery. This is
an enterprise the like of w hich has long
been needed in this section of the country,
nnd that it will be a successful one, we
have not the slightest doubts. Charlotte

Plenty of Wild Land in tbc East
No doubt many of our readers residing
iu the Western States think that all the
arable land iu the East, aud especially
near . our larger cities, was long since
cleared of its forests and broken up with
the nlow. But the truth is there are hun
dreds and thousands of acres all along
our seaboard awaiting the axiuau am
plowmau. There is nearly half a million
of acres ou Long Island alone in the
primitive state except perhaps that
portion of the best trees have been cut
aud nut to practical use, but the laud
itself has never been disturbed by agri
cultural implements. What is true of
Long Island is also true of New Jersey
and while both are so near the greatest
cit v on this continent that the sound o
its church bells may almost be heard iu
the depths of their great forests, young
aud old men go West in search of new
lands that they might hud near home, a
prices not much if any above what i
asked for wild prairie within railroar
limits. JV. T. 8un.

eru i. cut is gv atly iitcens'd at the action
of the Russian authorities in ' massing
such large numbers of Cossacks on the
frontier and tlmt the cabinet is seriously
considering the advisability of at once
preparing and forwarding a note to tne
Russian Government aemanamg an ex
planation of this sudden movement of
a a rw .
troops. The Schlesisalie eitung says
that Germany will not be satisfied with
mere assurances of Pacific intentions on
the narts of the Czar and M. DeGrer'A
prime minister of Russia. There is no
evidence of pacific intentions beyond the
bare declaration that Russia is peaceably
disnosed and the massing of Cossack
troops on the German frontier and cer
tain proceedings of a warlike nature in
Poland are strangelv at variance with
such representations.

negro suffrage, remarks that paper, was
to Humiliate the south by uegro repi

union in congress, aua opposition was
denounced as dislovalty to the govern
ment. The result was only increased
power ot the South. Now Republican
leaders would gladly revoke negro suf
frage if they could.
The reconstruction measures were ani
mated by the same spirit. Their main
purpose, says the Suu, was to make the
uneducated rule iu the South by putting
the late slaves of their former masters
lo tins end military power was used to
supercede civil authority in times of
peace. Atrocious force bills were intro
duced iu Congress, but eventually rob
bery and villiany became unpopular, and
the enormities committed led to the
emancipation of the South from a vulgar
aud vicious despotism. Aud so also the
civil rights bill which was enacted iu
1875 to still farther humiliate the South
ern whites that has gone by the board
and ended iu smoke. It seems to be a
fact that all the partisan, lawless legisla-

the detriment of the grand old party, and
the Republicans of the North are in a
