HoTtgges-4oihg Out
It is a. gratifying lact that there has
been a great change in Rowan county in
the number of mortgages j registered the
past year as compared with several pro
ceeding years. We learn from the
county Register, Mr. Woodson, that
there has been a falling off of about 75
per cent., or three out of four. And this;
it is believed, Jsduc to several causes,
the most gratifying'of all being the belter
condition of the people. The last year'?
crop was a good one and enabled the
farming community to pay 'up, and in
most cases, to have a food supply left for
the present year. Next to that perhaps,
more attention was given to provide for
the necessities of the home; and form, in
pitching last year's crop, i But no doubt
many have opened their eyes ;to-tbc fu
gitive false good of giving mortgages, and
deliberately resolved to quit that mode
of business. The change & not due, in a
great measure to the rcfuso-ijof merchants
to take mortgages, for : there have been
some of them. wilHu' to do so; but, to
their credit it may be stat'ed (.hat' they
hare advised .against it J and in'many
cases dissuaded applicant from continu-
- w r - il i -
ing me practice. .
x Whatever causes have
gratifying chauge, it is
produced this
none the less
pleasing to the "Wah-nap.;'" which has
constantly sought to break down the
mortgage system as delusive and danger
ous to those who practice it. There is no
surer joad to ultimate bankruptcy, and
n( speedier way for a man to enslave
himself. !

Mr. Pearson.
A Spartanburg .correspondent of the
Charleston New aid Courier says of the
meetings being held by Mr. Pearson in
that place: "Two! weeks ago the Rev. R.
G. Pearson, . the evangelist, began his
meetings here. It was cold and raining.
At 11 o'clock there were about fifty cold
look3pg peop'e iu the pews and four
persons in the choir. Such was the be
ginning. To-day, when it has been" rain
ing and the streets are flooded with mud
and the sidewalks are just as bad as
Spartanburg sidewalk can be; a half an
hour before services the laxgl church:
and Sunday-school room were (crowded, '
and they confined to come until it was
literally packed; and then many had to
go away. Strangers, town people, coun
try people, all sorts and conditions of
folks, were present. They did not come
to hear a big sermon, for they were as
sured they would be disappointed if they
expected that. They knew they would
hear no flights of eloquence, no descrip
tion of heaven and the judgment, no
quotations from ; the philosophers and
poets, exhibition of man's wisdom. For
an hour this large crowd gave their pro
found attention to a Bible reading on
'confession.
It was plain, simple, clear, convincing.
It did more good to the congregation
than the most eloquent sermon from the
biggest doctor of divinity in the State.
After the reading he called on those who
wished to make a . public profession to
give him their hand, and about twenty
three, whohad backslidden, went up and
acknowledged the fact and renewed their
professions. It has certainly been a very
wonderful meeting." i
Health of the County.
Report of Dr. J. J. Summerell on the
health of Rowan county, for the month
of December, from the Bulletin of the N.
C. Board of Health :
Colds, cattarrhal fever, typhoid fever,
pneumonia and bronchitis have prevailed
in several portions of the county. The
reports from twelve doctors give 5 cases
scarlet fever, 7 of diphtheria, 14 of typhoid
fever. There have been no efforts, eitht r
public or private, to remove sources of
disease, and to make the; county more
healthful, or to teach the people how to
make their homes more healthful and
orderly. Still, the Supt. is happy to re
port that the general health is good, and
from the abundant crops made, there is
little likelihood of there being much want
or destitution in our county this winter.
Of course, there are still some at our poor
house, mostly the aged and infirm people,
who from long continued disease and the
infirmity of age, have ceased to make a
support, and are taken to the poor-house
to end their days. There is no sickness
among the prisoners in jail, except colds
and a few cases of syphilis. This, latter
disease is much more common among the
colored people than when they were
slaves. They are generally treated only
long enough to cure the primary sore,
and the disease runs into its secondary
and tertiary stage, and finally ends in
pauperism. Many of them, both black
and white, are admitted to the poor house
to be treated. The public buildings arc
in pretty good sanitary condition. Water
is beiner introduced into the iail now. and
the sewerrleading from the jail are to be
put in also. With plenty of water and
water closets, connected with a good sys
tem of sewerage, many of the sources . of
disease will be removed.
Thieves.
The Concord Standard has- the follow
ing to say about the thefts in the lower
portion of this county, for which five per
sons are now in our jail : ;
Reliable Information comes from No. 5
that five persons have been arrested and
are now in Salisbury jail charged with
burglarizing the store house of Mr. Jas.
Cline in No. 5, and that of Mr,- Henry
Graber, of South Rowan. The names of
the parties arrested are Wiliiam and
Henry, Roseman, twoj Newsom brothers
and Alf Hess. The sister of the Newsom
bovs is also arrested as an accoinnlice. It
is said that there is an organized band Of
sixteen implicated in the lawless acts of
that vicinity.
Another informant tells us that for
months past many citizens of South Rowan-and
north Cabarrus have been loo
ing by petty thefts, and were greatly ex
ercised as to Mho were the trespassers.
Gradually the perpetrators became bold
er, A few weeks ao Mr. tthar ey Pow
less and his neighbor Thorp ton had 60
cmcxens stolen. Jas. ujine ana jienry
Graber's stores were broken into, and the
night alWi Mr. Monroes Ketner butcher
ed, the theives entered J his mil V poured
jthe wheat out'of the sacks, then proceed
fed to pry open his meat, house,' put hi
meat in the sacks and carried it off on
lis own horses. .'. j 1
: At another time Bill Roseman and his
pals : visited a very aged lady, (Mrs.
Adam Roseman) who lived alone with a
hired girl, broke open ljer smoke honsi
and finding nothing proceeded to ransack
her kitchen, notwithstanding her expos
tulations. The girl slipped up staire and
blew a horn, a signal in that country oi
distress, but before the neighbors arrived
the thieves had left, first threatening the
old lady whh death if she exposed them.

"rtACStt NO. 2." I
Tli is mine is located in a broad,: swam
py nil.of many acres, ,whicu nn been
opened to a width, f at bottom, of about
eighteen feet. jThe: gold-beariAg grit is
an average of tenMnches in thickness,
resting on a betjj of hlueclayjargely com
posed of decomposed epidote. Tle over
lay is an average: of about ten fect in
depth, presenting where it rests upon the
grit, a deposit of decomposed vegetable
matter; then, above, loose sands, clay
and soil. At distances of about three
feet apart, I took from this mine five
pans of grit, (one from each point.) ! These
all showed goldj giving in pan a decided
streak. i ! '
A "clean up" was effected at Mine Nt..
2, on the 15th, three daysafter my ar
rival at the mines, and was highly satis
factory, considering the amount of gravel
moved. j
The force of workmen was then moved
to another point, and began operating
"Placer No. 3." At this point the over
lay was found to be about twelve feet in
j -
thickness, and j of character similar to
that of No. 2. In order to get space for
sluicihg, some gravel previously worked
by the early miners had to be removed.
This showed an astonishing amount of
gold partly amalgamated with mercury,
lost in the crude process employed in
earlier times. When the undisturbed grit
was reached it showed remarkably rich
in the pan, with indications of improve
ment from day to day, as the gluchat the
point where work was begun suddenly
spread out below, disseminating the gold
more widely. Above, with the narrower
concentration of the grit, this mine can
not fail to furnish good returns for labor
spent upon it. More men, and an addi
tional hydraulic, could be worked at this
point profitably for a lon time. The
first "clean up'M-wbieh was eflected un
der my supervision included only a
small amount of gravel moved, and apart
of that had been previously worked, with
only two sluice boxes in position but was
eminently satisfactory, yielding nearly
thirty pennyweights of gold.
Mine "No 1" nOt now in operation
possibly worked out I did not examine
for gold; but at ibis point many small
crystals and fragments of gem material,
including the various corundum gems,
beryl, and rutilatd quartz, are found in
thcgravel from previous washings; : and
I anr informed hy the superintendent
that some good crystals of emerald were
found here during the working of this
mine. '
The examination of the various test
pits manifests that you have a large area
(more than a mile! in length) of payable
placer mining still untouched and await
ing development.?!
I examined thirteen gold-bearmg quartz
veins which have been uncovered upon
your property. These all have a north
east and south-west trend. The number
given docs nci include some small
thready veins to which my attention was
called. From these thirteen' veins I took
rock for examination. These samples
gave me a yield of goTd running from
$4.50 to $13 per ton, averaging over $8.
If this rock can be mined and milled for
$2.25 per ton, which seems a liberal esti
mate, then the poorest of these veins
could be profitably worked, if the same
percentage of gold, as shown by the out
crop, should continue. The quartz is
eminently granular, and the sulphurets
well decomposed, which makes the mil
ung easy, upon tne nest oi tnese veins
the Terry, and Nos. 1. 2, and 31
would recommend the sinking of shafts.
These ought not to cost exceeding $300
each, and the quartz removed ought to
much more than meet this outlay. These
veins have a thickness of from six to
eighteen inches.
At a short distance from the house of
the superintendent of the mines I found
that a shaft had been sunk a few feet upon
a most remarkable vein of massive lime
iron-alumina garnet var. pyrope of
great purity and exceeding hardness. The
vein at this point is about eighteen inches
iu width. The same mineral is abundant
ly distributed aloug a line through Jthe
Upton tract of land on the west side of
Muddy creek, upon the surface of he
ground, in large uroKen masses, rrom
its extreme hardness and purity it affords
a most excellent material for the produc
tion of good emery. It possesses the
rich, reddish brown coldr so much sought
in emery, and much of Which is artifi
cially produced. Its hardness is fully
equal to that of the impure varieties of
corundum commonly used to produce
emery, if not superior to tbem. It seems
to me that the miniog and crushing of
this material, which j appears to be in
abundance, must become a lucrative
branch of your mining. It is the hardest
garnet I have ever i examined, ranking
fully eight in the scale of ten.
