Lock -Your Stable.?.
On last Friday night horse thieves
ttole from J. Kluttz, an excellent
horse and a good mare, leaving Mr. K.
entirely without a horse or a mule. His
neighbors are in pursuit of the thieves
but on Wednesday neither the scamps
or horses had been overtaken.
One-half of the people of this county
never lode their stable doors. But even
loekingidocs not turn a determined thief,
but the noise iu breaking through often
attracts the owner, thereby preventing
a iy loss, i -
AVe have heard of several men who
locked the dcor after the animal was
stolen. Concord Standard.
And as this molten material in the fis
sure became cold, it broke up into pris
matic blocks, extending partly or -entire
ly across the fissure from side to side.
After this the blocks began to decompose
oh their sides and edges, thus forming a
sort of clay in between them. If now,
at the surface, the decomposed rock or
soil on the ddes of the fissures be removed
we see the 'ancient wall.' The pris:?iic
blocks fitting against one another with a
sort of clay mortar between them, prc-
ents the appearance of an. excellent
piece of masonry.
Such arc the naturr.l walls of Rowan
trap dikes. One of these walls occurs
four miles north of Salisbury, and early
in the present! century was .known as
'Jacob's Wall.' It was described by
Prof. Olnialead in his geological report oi
1825, as being eight inches wide, .running
nearly northwest by southeast. Another
ou the South Yadkin was described as
Robley's WalJ.'iu the American Journal 1
of Science in 1822, and in the Memoirs of
the Royal Academy of Science at Paris,
for 1818, the latter description having j
been written by a French traveler who
visited the wall in 17DG. '
Walls (dikes) quite similar to those of
Rowan are -to be found in many counties
of the central and western regions of the
State. ' They rarely extend above the
surface of the ground, and excepting the
fgvy cases where running water has wash
ed away the oil at the sides, one has to
excavate in order to see the wall distinctly."

Salisbury, N. C, Jan. 20. The doors

its alfi-cting the' ottur organ. ;
Therefore, when told that it was abs
lutely necessaiy, the Senator consenleJ
'A to have the eye taken out.
At noon to-day, Dr. 'Burnett, assisted
by two other oculists, put the Senator
under the influence of ether and in a few
secouds bad removed the organ.
In talking with the Chro.iicle corres
pondent to-night, Dr. Burnett said the-J
eye was very maca inflamed and the
Senator entirely, blind in it. Had it not
been removed, it might have extended to
the right eye.
But the operation had been so success
ful and the Senator was resting so quiet
ly to-night, that he thought Mr. Vance
would be out in three or four days, and
was positive the other organ would not
become affected- In fact, he said, it
would not impair his sight iu the least. 1
The doctor is of the omniou that the
i loss of the eye was due to too uiuch con-
stont study and that Mr. Vance's lubors
on the tariff bill 'injured it very much.
He says as sco:i as the socket heals

and the 'Senator will barely notice the
loss of One eye.

Where German Americans. will Stand.
Of course we are not going to hare any
senoiu trouble with Oermiiny. It fr
doubtful if we shall eyen be annoyed by
blusteri from Bismarck. Tho Oermau
people are too sensible, too honest and
closely allied with our own pcoplcjn the
love of libet ty and, its principles to con
template the idea of war over a petty
issue like that of Samoa. Bismarck is too
sagacious a statesman to risk the Euro
pean complications which would be sure
to be precipitated by ail imbroglio with
this country. We haven't any navy to
speak of, but in a war between Germany
and the United states we could borrow
the navies of France and Russia cheap
and not for love either.
Where would German Amei leans, by
birth and naturalization, stand should
such a contingency arise? There would
be no divided allegiance in such a case.
TLeyloye their mother cou u try -the
Germans -as the late war between - Ge -many
and France fully revealed; butt hi y
support her when in the right. The
don't love Bismarck's government at all.
Any trouble which arises will be precipi
tated by Bismarck rather than! by Ger
many, aud in that event we bay rest
assy red of the hearty sympathy and firm
allegLn :e o.'the midions of curGirman
American citizens.
The'Samoan affair ins't any more ser
ious to us thau the Hayti anpisode was.
It is much fuller of serious dangers foi
Bismarck than for anybody else except
the negroes who an being shot down iu
drunken brawls, dignified by the name
of battles; A blunder bv liisin ATi V in
this affair will be much mure likely to
upset his rule in Germany than to co.-t

An Exciting Fcx Eacs.
Mr. Editor: Probably the most excit
ing fox race that ever took place in
Rowan couiity, occurred on Friday, the
2oth hist., lasting fully twelve hours. 1
The scene of , the race was within an
area of some three miles, lying between
Franklin Academy and t he Harrison place
on the Sherriil Foard Road, with the
plantation of W. R. Fraley as a pivotal
point in the circle.
The trail was struck on the Sam Har
rison place, a short while before day
light, but the race did not begin in ear
nest until 9 or 10 o'clock, by which time
a large number of men, some mounted
and-tthers on foot, had fallen into the
chase. In running, the fox seemed to
make the same circle every time, always
turning to the left, right around and
through the Fraley place. It made this
circle live or six times it seemed that the
dogs would catch it, but failed, and after
a short interval would start on afresh
run, going over the same ground again
aud again. By noon the exciteineut had
gotten up to fever heat. Meii and boys,
mounted and on foot, came dashing in
from every point of the compass until it
really looked like a squadron of cavalry.
Not only was Franklin largely repre
sented, but Locke, Salisbury and ' even
Iredell county were also represented,
and at each new round of the fox and
hounds the excitement was simply im
mense, every one yelling, rnnuing or
riding- pell-mell to be in at "the death."
The last round, which wafc rui about 4
p. ra., like ail preceung oues, as n
failure, the dogs having become com
pletely exhausted.
i It is really astonishing how escifed
men becoine"in a fox race. Gray-headed
old men grandfather. became perfectly
wild, and the temptation to trespass on
posted lands was very great, but be it
said to1 their credit, they did not do so
only in one small instance. The cun
ning fox seemed to be aware of this and
did avail himself of the protection of W.
R. Fraley 's trespass posters. It was
generally within the limits of this place
thatthe'dogs would' get him in close
quarters, but the hunters did not dare to
follow them within the same,, to encour
age them, and Revuard Kvoiild again
make his escape. .j
Wc will venture to say that few crowds
of such numbers and under circumstance
so exciting, would have resisted the
temptation to over-ride those trespass
notices. But the men of Franklin are
law-abiding men. They reepeet the
rights of their fellow-citizens. They
helped to make the stock law, and they
are going to abide by it, whether they
cateh the fox or not
We under-itand that the fox chtisc is to
be run agaiu at an early day. It is
thought iheje were two foxes, and that
they rested' alternately.

A Kammoth Order.
One of the largest, if not the largest,
orders ever given to a firm iu North Car
olina, is that nottTbeing filled by Avery
& Erwin, proprietors of the Ashevillc
Furniture Factory.
This mammoth order was given by a
wholesale furniture company in New
York citv, and the goods ordered consist
of bed-room and other suits' bureaus an.l
wardrobes. The contract calls for the
entire filling of the order within six
months from its tlate, and the Furniture
Factory turns out about two thousand bu
reaus per month.
The suits are divided into two classes
two hundred and four hundred lots.
These suits are of oak, and are shipped
in ratio equal to that of the bureaus.
Mr, Avery, senior member ofthelirm
told a Citizen respresentative yesterday
that the prices the firm obtained in New
York for the same class of goods' were a
great deal better than those obtained
elsewhere.
On February 1st, a large increase, both
in machinery and capital will be added
to the business of Messrs. Avery & Er
win, and when this is done, Asheille
will have the largest and best equipped'
furniture manufactory' in all the Southern
