They were pleased with , our town and the country; and if our citizens shall take enough stock in the enterprise to furnish asuitable building and the motive power, and do it promptly, the factory will be in operation witfiiirsix months.

Amateur mechan ics fellows who are fond of making things boxes, chairs, wheels, anything or everything, should have facilities for carrying out their projects. W have heard it said that the best carpenter's work in this town, now standing with close joints after more than xixty years. was done by a man who taught himself the trade. He was an amateur mechanic a master workman, who could not be excelled by men especially trained in the line. Dr. E. M, Summerell has been sent out by the Board of Managers of the Morgan- ton Insane Asylum to visit the Asylums of Teunesssee, Mississippi, Alabama, Geor gia and South Carolina, for the purpose )f noting the methods adopted by these institutions in the treatment and care of the inmates. Dr. S is noted for being a close observer of men and things, and will no doubt gather information that will be of value to the Asylum, with which he is connected, at Morgan tqn. This is a hand some compliment to the young M. D., and is evidence that the Board recojniizes his ability as a specialist. - Another Old Citizen Gone. The landmarks of Salisbury, of the olden time, are passing away and will soon be all gone. Two weeks ago we an nounced the death of Mrs. Rowzee, aged 75 years, amLnow must be recorded the death of her husband, Mr. Wm. Rowzee, aged over 76 years. This aged couple lived here from the time of their mar riage in 1832, and raised a family of sons and daughters, several of the latter are still here with growing families. For many years this highly respected couple kept hotel here,-and in that position became extensively known to the public, whom they served handsomely, and many 01 ineir iniesis cnerisn tneir memorv with enduring fondness. They were both members of the Methodist church, and living exemplary lives died in the faith they had professed, Teaving-to their de6cendantsjan4 friends the sweet odor of lives well spent. Building and Loan. There was a rousing informal meeting in the hall over Kluttz's drug tore on last Friday night. Mr. A. H. Boyden was called the chair and J. S. McCubbins and T. K. Bruner requested to act as secretaries. The chairman made annro- priate opening remarks, and was follow ed .by Mr. I. H. Foust, who explained the workings of the Association in a nut shell. T. K. Bruner moved that a committee of seven be appointed to draft a suitable constitution and by-laws for the Associa tion, to be prepared and presented at the next regular meeting for adoption. Car ried. The Chair appointed the follow ing committee: Theo. F. Kluttz, Chairman, T. C. Lina, Wm. Smithdeal. I. H. Foust. M. R . . . ' : ' "?J 1. i. Yanaerford and D. R, Julian. The Chairman was added to the committe. Mr Linu requested the committee on Constitution and by-laws to meet at The. F. Kluttz's law office on Mondav evening at 6 o'clock. The next regular meeting of the Asso ciation will take place in the hall over the drug store at 7 o'clock sharp on Fri day the 12th inst The committees reported the number of shares taken, which amounted to 46L It was suggested that it be made 500 shares by those present. The names were enrolled rapidly and in a few mo msnts another cpunt was made, when the result announced 515 shares subscri bed. The nieeting then adjourned. By next meeting night the stock taken will probably reach 800 or 1000 shares. The prospeet for material improvement of the towntn the matter of building new and improving old redeaies is flatter ing indeed. The Building and Loan has started under the most favorable circum stances and bids fair to be a paying in stitution. . J .1 S : . -L Building and Loan. If the subscribers ho the new Build ing and Loan Association about to be or ganized in Salisbury will follow up the good work already dene, and will all pull together and' elect a first class Board of Directors and a live find efficient Secre tary and Treasurer, (fne interest already manifested being an excellent guarantee that such actiion will be token,) our good old town will be greatly benefitted and new enterprise will be manifested on all sides. Let all who have subscribed come out Friday nighty and aid in securing a good and thoroughly qualified "Board," and the ultimate success of the organiza tion will be secured beyond a doubt.

Bought only first class goods, put omstyle, wept to church, in a word he went into any and everything and every body where he cosld do so without its costing him any money. So swimingly did he succeed that in December he mov ed to one of our leading hotels with a wo man he claimed as his wife, imt who proved to be a common prostitute from Ral eigh, known and recognized as such by persons from there, as well as byeitizens of our own town .the said woman being of mixed blood, and known rn Raleigh by the name of Mary Boyd, The "Doctor's" true iuwardncss was learned here the first of last week. His paramour left at once, and he, hearing the muttcrings of an indig nant and outraged community also skip ped the town last Friday evening, not taking with, him so nmeh as a change of clothing. The "Doctor" is a man of. good address but a peculiarly sallow complex ion, about 5 teet 10 inches high, and weigh ing some 150 pounds.

MINING DEPARTMENT. T. K. HUL NF.U, KDITOR. The usual January thaw did not come this time, but a general freeze. This has seriously affected mining and milling in our section. Coupled with this fact, and that the Mining Editor, as one of the Board, is attending the annual meeting of the U. S. Assay Commission at the Phila delphia Mint, must account for the dearth of mining news this week. A New York syndicate has recently purchased Piedmont Springs, Burke Co. They intend to make it a popular sum mer resort. We suggest that they also develop the huge quartz outcrop some 50 feet wide, on top of the mountain above Upper creek, and where the road crosses on the way to Mitchell county. Nuggets are found iu the creek below. It is understood from reliable sources that as soon as spring opens that there will be an influx of capitalists and pros pectors to this State. Some will prospect the eastern belts, while others will goto the mountains and tack el the immense veins, of gold, galena, copper, iron and other minerals that are there. Johnston Mine. The reported sale for $50,000, copied in the Charlotte Observer recently from the N. Y. Skin, is all a hoax. The owner, as yet, has not received a cent and knows nothing of the sale. .' Griffin Mine Randolph. Co Some of the English speculators and capitalists, it is said, are dickering around this property with a view of bonding and selling on the- London market. It is thought that'the veins of this mine are an extension of the Steele mine veins. Mike Holshouser. - Mr. John S. Bryan, of Salisbury, has purchased the 10 stamp mill and the whole machinery plant of the Bullion mine, and will remove it to the Holshous er as soon as the weather breaks, and erect it to mill the ores there, and will also run it as a custom mill for free gold ores. . Beaver Dam. This, one of the oldest placer mines' 111 the State, and one of the most noted rind in which, it is said Mrs. Garfield owns stock,, was advertised to be sold at auc- ion at the Courthouse door in Troy on the 1st inst. to satisfy sundry judgments in the hands of the Sheriff. The Mdctte of Feb. 4th, says it wis sold at public auction, as advertised, C. C. Wade, Esq., of Troy, beingthe purchaser. Suggestions and Facts. Continued. The countrv lying between the Stoke? road and Stanly county, on the south and east of the Briugle ferry and Gold Hill road, has been but very little explored. Yet sufficient is known to say, that though the extensive fault in the geology of this section, the which betins in the vicinity of Gold Hill; twisting those veins in their N. E. course, to that of nearly north, throwing the veins across Stokes road at a point between the 11 and 12 mile posts, the Briugle rad, near Rutty 's mill, and across the river near the mouth of Dutch Second creek, instead of several miles lower down the country in their proper course; it is fully demon strated that the Dillo mountain, and Flat creek belt of veins does cross .the forma tion, ami continue their course past Levi Casper's, A. K. Miller's, H. W, Miller's upper place, on through the Glover and Arey neighborhood ami crossing into Stanly, became a part. of the '"Barringer Mine" system of veins. The juvlt pre cludes the possibility of establishing their proper connection, for in places the slate is' twisted in all directions, the strata at times, running at right angles to the gen eral and proper treud of the formation. Some prospect work has been done here and shows pay ore from the surface. A not inconsiderable suggestion as to this section is called to the immense body of splendid pine timber, "extending over the whole plateau, from the river S. W. into Stanly; to its interesting geological and mineralogicat features, formation, faults and vein matter, and to its general adaptability for agriculture, mining and timber getting. The Russell Gold Mining Go. Mr. Soliague who has just visited the mine, said at a recent meeting of .tock- holders in. London: - "One thing he might touch upon. They had a lead running east on Riggon Hill, whicb their manager had as he had found it named the Soliague lead. They had sunk a shaft of about 75 feet, and they had hitherto to work that shaft by means of a windlass and rope, having four or five men to hoist, and then having o to put the ore into the tramway to the mill. Now as soon as they had started Burleigh, a montb before he had left, they got the air compressor and rot k drill to work, and they had been work ing magnificently ever since. Previously three shifts could only do about four feet per week, while the Burleigh will do feet in 48 hours. They had now run a tunnel from the main shaft in Riggon Hill that was at the 55 feet level. They had run and intersected the Windlass shaft on the Soliague lead, thereby sav ing the hoisting and so many men, and bringing the ore strait to the main shaft. They were now running north, south, east and west, and everyw here there was good paying ore. He saw no end of pan nings while out there, and all that ho had seen were good. Since the mine hadtbeeu at work the property had grown enormous ly in value. An enormous price was be- ! ing paid for property in North Carolina. 1 There was no doubt of the value of the property. There was abundance of ore ; all they wanted was stamps: 20 stamps was. a small thing for a mine like theirs. They wanted 100 or 200 and they could keep 500 going. The Homestake Mine, in Dakota, had oW, and with $2 to $5 ore they were abije to give large returns to the shareholders. Five Dollars per day in Gold. Our townsman Hardv Webb, returned from Webster: yesterday. He says the town shows. many signs of progress. Her merchants ait live, pushing men. and do ing all they can for their town and sec tion. He says he saw a young man, just from the Georgetown gold mines, with a bottle containing 64f penny weights of pure gold, thereault of 12 days labor, for which he received 61 in cash.

WASHIITGT02J LETTER. From Our Regular CorrespoDtliin. Washington, Feb. 8, 18SC. The President and Attorney-General have read and discussed privately, and with the other numbers of the Cabinet the recent publications regarding Mr. Garland's conection with the Pan - El ee trie Telephone Company. They understand the whole af fair, but the President expressed the wish that his official household should take no part in the controversy at present, not say anything for publication This policy of silence is adopted because the President feels that time will vindicate the Attorney General, 'and because the source and motives oil' the attack upon Mr. Garland are understood. The War waijcd by certain newspapera now is well paid for by the Eell-Teleplmiie Company, and its purpose is to intimidate the Administration and thus prevent tjhe Government from carrying out the programme with regard to suits to test the validity of the Bell patent. But the conspiracy has hi no degree discouraged the prosecution of t'sis suit. It will not be delayed any longer than is necessary for preparation, an array of prominent counsel having been already selected to aid the Dje part merit of Justice. Solicitor General GoOde will conduct the suit, and ex-Senator Thin man. Mr. Lowery of New Yorli. an electrician specialist, and Messrs Eppa Uuntonl Jeff. Chandler, and Whitman of this city will assist. It has not yet been determined where the tiial will be held. The Bell Company wants it in Bostou, while some of the Government counsel prefer Washington, and others think it should Ix1 argued in some Western city where there has Wm n no previous liti gation or feeling on tne.Bubject. The climix: of absurdity was reached in comparing the Pan-Klectnc affair to the 1 'Credit Mobili tei. In the Ctedit Mobil ier busioeas, officials were bribed to corruptly act m tneir official capacity and give life and value thereby to a corrupt acliemo to n left money from the T reasurj. In this affair no one has been wild enough even to j uuic i:i3inu;:ie mat tue jsenaiuranu -.Members of the lower House tr ho invited in Pan-Electric stock, had any purpose of lcg'sfaHng the stock into valne. , There h been nothing in the official or personal relation of Attorney QeneraL Gar land to this case, up to this time, that is not consistent with the highest integrity and honor. He has not used his official po sition or influence in the slightest degree to promote the suit against the Bell Company. On the contrary, when application was made to him to, bring suit he promptly declined because he happened to hold shares in the Pan-Electric Company. In declining to act. he referred the whole subject to the Solicitor General, and that I ..4'. .1 1 1 1 . ... o uu.tai, wiiu nay nostncK in eitner com pany, found a state of thing&that warranred the bringing of a suit. The matter then went entirely out of fbe hands of Mr. Garland, and it i? stated by those in position to speak advised! v that he knows nothing about the prepaiatios of the case, or the plans of the Government. He and Mr. Goode have not exchanged a word upon the subject of the suite, and Mr. Garland instructed the chief clerk of his Department to hand Mr. Goode all letters that are received bearing upon the matter. The President will not even consult Mr. Garland iu the selection of a place where the suit shall be brought. All that you hear about Mr. Garland's csignation is. nonsense. The President would not be likely to accept it if it wre tendered. He was satisfied mouths ago with Mr. Garland's explanation of his connec tion with the case, and the Attorney General then expressed his willingness to resign if the Administration felt any em braraarmeat over the coming discussion. But Mr. Garland will not be driven out of the Cabinet, nor the suits prevented, by newspaper abuse. The great contest between the President and the Rewublican majority in the Senate threatens to evaporate lor want of earnest ness or rather because the President will not surrender his constitutional prerogative at the beck of a few Republican managers. it would be very awkward, though, for these Senatorial politicians who are so anxious to make some trouble for the Ad minis tration, to abandon their efforts just at this stage of the proceedings. The country has been expecting something dramatic, and they feel that tbev must not fall too flatly flat. Establish the Boundary. A bill has been introduced in the Vir ginia logislaturoauthorizing the governor to establish the boundary line between that state and Tennessee. It is claimed that it will give that state much valuable territory. And similar action oujrht to be taken by the states of North Carolina and Tennessee, relative to the boundary line between the two states. It is believed that much territory would be gained by North Carolina. It is believed by many that the Ducktown copper mines would be North Carolina Territory if the boun dary line were properly established. Asheville Citizen. This is for You. An exchange says that when a man wants a cheap city or foreign paper lie never thinks of subscribing without sending the cash in advance. But if they want their home paper, some men will subscribe and have it sent to them one, two or three' years without-offering to -pay for it, and will in many cases feel of fended when asked to pay for it.

The Lion and Steel Association of Penn sylvania congratulates its members upon the fact that Southern made irons are no longer formidable competitors of the Penn sylvania article. "1 ho reason lor tins is that the rates of freight have been raised on Southern roads to.au extent that keeps the Southern product in its natural market and the trunk lines have so far advanced friirhts that the Ohio irons and those from tlie southwest are not coming into compe tition with those of Pennsylvania." We take this very interesting information from a dispatch made up in Philadelphia from HOW TO SATE OKDXJD THE TRIPLER AMALGAMATOR! PATENTED. This machine is a combination of silver plates so as to represent a large amalga mating 8urtnee, working with rapidity and efficacy, Which haa not hitherto bffen accom plished. The drawing above represents the machine in working position. It consists of four corrugated p at ea fitted together, allowing a space between of inch. Two plates are perpendicular, connecting with two horizontally inclined. The pulp passes trom the battery and falls perpendicularly through the plates, which gives it a zigzag motion, causing the free gold to impin e 011 each side, when it passes through the horozontally inclined plates, which act as rifflfs, catching any escaped gold both on top and iKjftotn. The plates discharge in a circular pan at the end which is given a rotary motion, thus concentrating the heavier portion of tin- tailings for subsequent treatment if necessary. At the top of the machine is a mercury cup which b eds automatically any required mercury to keep the plates inactive force. This machine is especially adaptr4 for placer mines. It can be worked with or without water; it requires no mill fof pulverization, it oidy being necessary to sift the sand, which can be done ait a trifilug cost, so that law grade ore can be worked profita bly. Thts machine has been practically tested and i nhw on the Herring mine, Randolph county, where it met with such success as to warrant the belief that it will be. of geeat value to the mining interest of this State. This machine has an electrical attachment by'! hu h the mercury, ;hoold it be rick ened by the various causes to which it is liable, can be instantly restored to activity. Inspection is invited.
