What U the first day of spring? - - : - t Several days ago there I was a discus sion on this p int at the breakfast table at the Boyden House between two gen tlemen as to what was the first day of spring. It was asserted bv one- that March 1st was the first day of spring, be - cause it was the first daV . of the first spring month. Iu was asserted by aa other that it was March 21st, because that day was the vernal equinox, and hence the beginning of the season and the first day of spriug. ' Reference not being at hand it was de- tided to ask the question of a number of men of "ordinary intelligence," and if possible decide by a , preponderanfce of evidence. The question to be asked was "VJien is the first day of spriug? V So with pencil and paper it wa3 started. Nowto show the diversity of opinion, we give below the names and answers: S Ruffin, March 1; J J Newman, March 21; M O Sherrill, March 21; D A Miller, don't know but think March 21; M An derson, March 1; G Brenizer, March 21; Kerr Craige, March 1; Df j B Councill, April 1, because that is when it begins in Watauga; Col J B Tipton, Feb. 7; Dr J R Keen, March 21; II E Percival, March 12, Kev J T Bagwell, March 21; Jno God dard, don't know, think April 1; Dr. Michael, Feb. 20; W H Overman, March 15-KRev Dr Rumple, March 21; Jno A Hedrick (weather bureau), March 21; Jno Beard don't know; E B Neave don't know; P A Brown, March I2I5 'Squire C F Baker (weather prophet) don't know Rev F J Murdoch, March 21; Dr Jno II Enniss, March 21; S H Wiley, March 21; Ed Cutherell.March 21; Tom Earnhart, at equinox; J Allen rown, March 4f Jean Brown, March 21; J K J II Burke, March 21; Robt Murphy, March 21; Wm G McNeely, March 21; J L Hicks, March 21; Dr J J Sumraerell.

Also under the head of seasons: "The passage of the sun across the equator, bringing on days of greater length than the nights, mark the vernal, or sprint equinox, and occurs about March 21 for the northern hemisphere and Sept. 23 for the southern. These dates also mark the autumnal equinox, or coinmennA- ment of autumn, the hemispheres beiii" reversed, etc." Encyclopaedia Britanica, vol xi,p. 774. makes the 20th of March the beginning ofi the vernal eouinox when srriwr ho. gins; when the days and nights are equal all over the world, i. e. when the sun enters aries, March 20th.

The wheat crop is improving in appear ance since the weather has moderated. Crows arc more numerous thau usual, and it is not a rare thing to see them iu flocks of thousands. Hay and all roughness is exceedingly scarce and high, but some farmers still have some to spare.' Theipeach tree blooms seem unusually tardy in raakiug their appearance, which we hope may be an indication of another good fruit crop. The fox hunters of our township say that others may do as they please, but so far as they are concerned they are going to quit now and go to work." So mote it be. Our farmers are now busily engaged in sowing oats. Most of them have their lands brokeu up, aud are ready to com mence bedding for cotton, and making corn rows, etc, A great deal of home mad fertilizers are in course of prepararation, but from present indications, very little, if any commercial fertilizers will be used unless there is a big fall in prices. It is suicidal to our interests to use it at present pricei. We can't stand it. We think rather more tobacco will be planted here than last Year. I GOLD HILL.

It is just the plow for When we accepted the challenge of the Cleveland school, we did not know but that the principal made it. We notice he adds three conditions, which we are not willing to accept. In the first place we were under, the impression, by the challenge being made, that the school was willing and anxious to go anywhere iu the county to spell without their ex penses being paid. In the second place thejadvauced pupils, who accepted the challenge, are using Webster's Common School Dictionary, and do not wish to go back to the "blue back" to spell before a large audience in Salisbury; and the little ones who are using that book are too small to go so far from their parents. If the school will come down, aud use the dictionary, we will be glad to see them and spell against them any time. Also we will provide them food and lodging while they are here provided they don't 6tay too long. Ths Benefit of Good Roads. The value of good country roads is strikingly illustrated in the case of Mad ison county, Alabama, pf which Ilttnts ville is the county seat. That eouutry has in its. limits several macadamized roads, so its people have felt both the need and the blessings of such roads. The Huntsville Mercury says the result is that the laud which has the benefit of he turnpike sells readily for $50 and $60 nn acre, wiiiie that which has no such advantage for only from $15 to $20 an acre. . So well convinced are the people of Madison county of the value of good roads that the county has obtained per mission from the Legislature of that State to issue its bonds to the extent of $150,- 003 for the purpose of building 130 miles of well graded and , macadamized roads in iu midst, so located as ! to give the7 greatest good to the greatest number in the matter cf reaching a, market.
