The police of Winston are having a pic r.ie killing dogs that are found without badges, and some of the dog (on) citizens are raising a howl about it. Dr. C.A. Henderson, of Greenville, S. C, formerly, and for many years, a citi zen and practicing physician of Salisbury, spent several days here this week. The Doctor still owns valuable property here. Durham refuses to receive the water works just completed, because upon trial a stream was thrown only seventy-five instead of one hundred feet, according to contract. JSetfee? try our system. The outlook for a prosperous tobacco trade here next season, for both the buy er and seller, is very encouraging. There has never been as much fine tobacco rais ed in Rowan as .this gear's crop will 3uehL Dr. H. T. Tcantham has placed a neat and substantial monument of marble in the Lutheran cemetery, which marts the resting place of the mortal remains -of his beloved wife Mjrs. Mary Henderson Tran Iham.

OW depot officials say that there Las never been siielb a rush of business, and uch an immense amount of freight handled at this depot, as at present. The etateille Landmark says: The Apollo Club has effected a new arrange ment with Prof. Neave and he will Tesume Ins connections with it as director next month, paying it here after monthly visits of four days each. A series of meetings began at the Methodist church last Sunday. Prayer meeting will he held every afternoon at 4 o'clock, and preaching at night during this and next week. Rev. Mr. Gaj of Lexington station, is assisting the paster toere.- The run between Statesville and Salis bury was made by engiueer Moore, pul iinga passenger train one day week before last, in 33 minutes, with two stops, says the Landmark.

The railroad authorities should engage the services of a few frontier In dians, of the old time type to deal itb this class of woujd-be mrderers. i The Richmond & Danville Railroad Will sell, Sept. 20 to 2oth. ropnd trip tickets to Chattanooga, Tenn., good fcjr Wdajs from date of sale to all persons ho wish to visit that interesting and row city of the Southwest. The rate, from Salisbury to Chattanooga and re turn wid $5.50. Persons holding these lickeU will be ibished round trip ticketshattanooga to top of Lookout Mountain by condtors of E. T. V. & G. trains. These rates are so low every one should visit the iron city of the South. j It is said that the sanitary condition of oar town is noxv tatter than it has been for many years, and that there never be- jforo waa suchaeleanmgoutofck lots a .i.i- uvi o uuc mi summer, w v nave a communication on the subject, but as there is no name signed to it we refrain from publishing it. Tiif' old Knlfliors rf nthav ivtiintlna nc. . 4, ' "w poiaiuly in the east, are hoUing reunions for the pUrpoge pcrfectinz ortraizations to assist the old Confederate veterans who are in needy circumstances, also to con tribute to history eye witness testimony. Why not have a reunion of the old sob diersof Kowan here in Salisbury this foil? What Colonel, Major or Captain will make the call? Salisbury should have a museum all the war relics in the surrounding county should be gathered up and deposited for .safe keeping and preservation. There are enough, in the town alone, to make and interesting exhibit. We have sug gested it, let some one take it iu hand, and see what can be done. It would, in deed' a place of interest to 8trrs visiting our town. 1 istting The papers say that the Odell Manu facturing Company of Concord has de clared a semi-annual dividend of ten per cent., and yet Salisbury capitalists refuse! to invest in a factory, upon the pica that it will not pay, which amounts to saying or acknowledging that we have the cap- ltal Dut not the sPlrit of enterprise. It is ume tnat Salisbury, and not only Salts bury but other towns in the State, should begin to realize the fact that railroads on paper are a farce, every town in the State cannot be made a railroad center. but every town can be made a manufac turing pace, and it is an established fact that railroad companies never skip, nor build around a live, wide-awake manu facturing town. The Southern people arc deranged on the subject of railroads forgetting the fact that railroads without tratfic are a dead failure. 'Mr. Jones," said a country lady to a man doing business in town, "haven't you got some kind of work for my son to do," pointing to her 17 year old fboy, who was getting his gun ready to gq out hunting. "No madam,"' said Mr. Jones; and he went on further to say "teach him to farm. He has been raised on the farm. and farming is a pursuit ordained by GodJ himself It is the best business man ever followed for a living." "Ah ! but he don't like the farm, Mr. Jones he wants to go to town." "We all want things -which would be hurtful to us," said Mr. Jones, "but God in mercy often denies them to us. Not one boy in twenty who leaves the faim for employment in town ever proves a successful business man. He is far more apt to go down than to go up. We love pursuits which we can follow, success fully, and the early traiuing of your boy oa the farm is a gopd start iq. a .good .busi ness, by all means encourage him to hold on to it, One great need of the Southern ceuntry is mora good, intelligent farm ers." Ligat for the Benighted. The Herald says "Brooklyn" must have street lights, a ad threatens the town aut horities if they Are -not supplied that J w..-uv buuj cease. This subject has been before the Com missioners but no conclusion in the direc tion of Brooklyn's petitioners was reach ed. Fir3t, because there is no gas main leading into Brooklyn and the Commis sioners hare no authority for using city funds to lay them- Second, it is the work of the Gas Company to extend the mains into districts not already provided for. And, third, because there has been con siderable talk of ereeting electric lights, and while that subject was engaging at tention it was deemed unwise to proceed as if there was no probability of its suc cess. We have not the- Charter of the Gas Company before us, but it is proba hie that the town Commissioners have the right to order extension of pipes where needed, and that the Gas Company must comply with notices for such additional means for lighting the town. - S. A. & K W. R. R. The foil owing letter coming from South port, the terminal of the proposed South Atlantic Railroad, will be read with in- t crest by our people. We have-never yet eutinely given up the project, knowing that the road must certainly be built at some time. i Southport, Sept. 19, 18S7. Carolina Watchman, Salisbury, N. C: Information has come to this place, from a source believed to be trustworthy, with in a few days, to the effect that the S. A. & N. W. R. 1L will certainly be built and that work will begin as soon as the nec essary preliminary arrangements are per fected. -Our peop'e are disposed to believe this, and will wait with becoming patience, knowing that a scheme of t his magnitude takes lime to perfect. It is reported that the Soatbport Terminal Co. will soon be on theground to arrange for such terminal facilities as will be wanted, and as we expeetthis to be one of the great railroad liitesof the South, briuging the coal, tim ber and mineral productions of the west, as well aathe cotton, grain and agricult ural products of the country through which it passes, we are disposed to aljow considerable time for such arrangements. We are all anxious, down here, to have the work begin, believing as we do, that this is to be the most valuable and im portant work ever projected in North Carolina, and I think I may say that it is believed now that we are going to have the road. The parties from whom we I . - , get our lniormaiiou arc Known to nave a, great deal oi interest in the construction of the road, and are not known to have any interest in deceiving the public. If they build the road, they will make a great deal of money and if they fail to build it they wifl lose a great deal that is about the way it stands with our in formants. Tiie county has subscribed $100,000 to be paid only on the comple tion of certain portions of the road.

Potts, who has just returned from a short visit to Ashe county, that the crops of grain and grass are very fine in the country through which he passed, and that the people are generally very happy in view of the abounding plenty. They are also hope ful of railroad facilities, the South "At lantic & North Western Rallaoad cuttingi"00 the marketable variety of mici through a delightful region not y6t reach ed by any road. . fipd . FainM Accident. Our young frieud Johnny Bcall, who has been conduct6r'On;arfreight train on the W. N.G. R. &' for several months, met with quite a painful accident last Monday at Newton. r'He had gone on the side track to couple a car on to; the loco-, motive that was coming in to pull it out, land just as he was about to .make the coupling the cow-cateher sflfeck hini;-Uu. as he fell he grabbed hold of the.ladder of the car and was dragged ome fifteen or twenty feet with his fegs under -the loco motive, bruising and cutting them very badly. Had he lost his hold he would have undoubtedly been killed; and had the locomotive gone two feet farther .it would have probably cut his feet off on the switch. bar7 . We sympathize with him in his suffer ing and at the same time cong;atulate him on the accident being no worse. TobaccD Operatives. Now that there is a prospect of two or three more tobacco factories in this place it has occurred to us that there should be made some effort to induce white men, women and boys to. enter the factories, as operatives. We believe the business is almost exclusively given up to negroes in uearly all our Southern foctories, but why it is so, is tar trom apparent, it is true that the business is dirty, but it is no more so than other occupations gladly followed by white people, and we know of none which pays better wages than is given by tobacco factories. The black smith lays down his tools in the evening about as sooty as old Nick is supposed to be after a hard day's work; but a few dips into his cooling tub cleans him off well enough to preserffc himself in the presence of bis wife. The tanner is not only ex posed todirtbut to odors not quite so pleasant as that of the tube rose, and yet white men follow these occupations and make a support for themselves and families. So that the objection to dirt in the tobacco factory. 4s hardly a reason why the business shon!d be given op to negroes. Ana we learn from a tobacco nist that white laborers would be pre ferred, aud that negroes are employed be cause' there arc no competent white men to do .the work required. We learn from the same respectable source, that wages iu the factories rauge all the way from 25 cts. ter dav to small children stein iners to $3 a dav for first rate rollers. Good hands in any of the branches of the busi ncss make from 75 cts. to $1.50 per day. A littje dirt, or even much of it, might be verv well borne by operatives in a busi ness which pays such prices as these Aprons, and soap aud water are cheap and by a liberal use of these a tobacco operative may come upon the streets o any town wit n as mucn coundence and self-satisfaction as a sx(garmonkcy,ashoe maker or a tailor. We trust that the in telligent readers of this paper will urge white persons whom they may encounter hunting for cmyloyineut to apply at the tobacco factories. It is a progressive business: it must be learned; and while learning, no one should expect the wages of a competent hand. It is only when they become competent that they can ex pect good pay.; But it is a business which is likely to stay with us for a long time, and it is therefore worth while to enter it v ,1 rtA - i Vin Vkyltrsf Innrraa f drill nd speed in the various departments. Golden Wedding of Rsv. an I Mrs. Roth rock. This aged and highly esteemed couple celebrated their Golden Wedding on the 14tli of Sept., 18S7. The day was all that could have beeu asked, and about seven ty persons gathered, at their home, 10 mres east of Salisbury, to do honor to this worthy christian couple. Among the guests present, were Rev. F. W. E. Peschaa, of Wilmington, Revs. J. G. Schaidt, J. A. Linn, and R. W. Petrea, of Mt. Pleasant, and Mr. Adam is. Kothrock of Weston, N. W. Oregon; a brother of Rev. 8: Roth rock. He was present at the marriage fifty years ago. The two aaced brothers did not know each other when they met, after 37 years. Of the guests present 50 years ago, there were only three missing. Rev. Roth rock is well preserved for one who has labored in the iniuistry so long. (54 years.) His wife is quite frail and almost speechless, but her eyes sparkled when she saw . her many friends present, and the thought of their kindnesses greatly cheered her. Among the niany friendly letters received by the couple, was one from the Governor of the State, containing a gift of gold. The presents were mostly iu gold coin and of these there were $92. The neighbors and friends furnished an elegant and rich table, which after feeding seventy persons still was wella loaded. All present pronounced it a truly en joyable occasion, and it was snggested by somef that it would be well to have the golden Wedding to take the place of the iron wedding, on account of its intrinsic value, W.

MINING DBPARrMENT. T. K.

H. Henderson, is a member. The geological formation of the property is in the territory described by Prof. Kerr as Upper Lauren tian, and the outcrop of gneiss and granite indicate that it is pro perly located as to its geological relations. At present all work is being conducted on the surface, and nine men are thus engaged. They are taking out muscovite. t nrwl 1 J 1 i .-J! uu nn.- uutv utiw cAiut"ii oeiween one and two hundred pounds of this material.

By this means they hope to save Trom the prevalent vandalism many ire aud interesting forms of crystals, f 1 nis Is a subject that needs to be care- 'ully expounded to those people, andyiot only, to . them, but to all our people. Crystals Of all kinda are becoming more or lessrafc, hence the necessity of pre serving oR that are -4nct with. They may ouly be fit for use in a cabinet or not even that good, yet they should be saved and submitted to the inspection of some con petent person befor they are broken or given to the children to play with. ALEXANDER COUNTY. While this is by all means the most prolific field, for the finer gems, to be found iu this State, t here is no systematic work being conducted there. The Emer ald and Iliddenite mine has been idle all through the summer, and Mr. Hidden has been engaged in another field, in South Carolina. He is engaged there in taking out corundum and zircons. Of the latter, he has found some excellent crystals, and has ordered eight or ten of his old Alexander county gem miners to come and prosecute the excavations now being made. This has by no means rested the ardor of the Alexander county local miners, and a number of them have been minine during the summer. Mr. Lackey of btony Point has made the minine: of rutile the most profitable of the opera tions conducted this season. The finest specimens bring fancy prices for cabinet purposes, while the great mass is sought as a source for titanium. But few emeralds or fne light beryls have been found, though some rare speci mens of crystallized monazite, of a rich noney-red color, liave been taken out. These arg also sought lot. cabinet and other iwirposes. It is stated that when Mr. Hidden again begins the work of theorem mine, that steam hoist and steam drills are to be used. ASHE COUNTY. The several valuable gold and copper mines in Ashe have been idle for seme time, but the general interest in mining has induced the managers of several of these mines to turn attention to them once ir ore. It is reported that work may be resumed there at an early day, and we w'b them the success which attended the Ore Knob mine in its palmiest days GRANDMAM MINE SOLD. Mr. A. T. Nye called on bis way up from Montgomery county and reported the sale of the Grandmam, iu that county, to a lot of Colorado capita! ists. It isj he says, their intention to begin work there at once. The Appalachian mine, in Montgomery county, is prospering. See advertise ment in this paper for miners and wood choppers. The Standard mine is reported so'd to Ohio capitalists for $50,000; the Grand man for $G0;O00. You never see Ameri can purchasers paying hundreds of thou sands for property worth from 23 to 50 thousand dol fars. The second annual "meeting of the stockholders 'of the Concorcf-4-old Crowell, don't forget it mine is called to meet in Concord soon. This is a property that needs the. attention of shareholder?, if any ever does. Capt. Harry McCoy and S7 Hancock, M. E., the latter from London, and both connected With the Appalachian mine, were in Salisbury this hist wreek. They are in good spirits over the prospect of that property. LIST OF LETTERS.
