About live ears siiro lie learned where he was and immediately sent for a friend, to whom he show ed the borrowed property, and asked him the value of such an article forty-live years ago.

UAS. A. iiOWEKT; Edgecombe Finances. Mr. W. 11. Knight, chairman of the board of commissioners of Edge coin W county, has prepared a state ment -of the expenses, &c, of that county, which was published iu last weeks Guide which weconimend to the careful attention of thoughtful men who desire to see every part of North Carolina prosper. From it we learn that the Republican ad ministration after it came into power in 1808, received from past due taxes 9.SG7-ol, and from the sale of real estate 3,G54.00, iu all from these sources f 13,623.31. They paid an old debt 10,107.24. So they gtt more than they paid out as to these items. 1 heir expenses from 'Decern Wr 1, 18t;8, to Decem ber 1, 1878, were $228,91 7.03. an average of 522,891.80. The expen ses of the cttonty from December 1, 1878, to -December 1,-1881, under Democratic rule were ?30,427.0:,au average of $10,142.39. This is less than fifty per cent, of the excuses me lined tinder Republican rule. J The county taxes for ten years of Republican Vide, -from 1809 to 18G8. : amounted to 2,7,19C.10. The ex jienses were 22S,91 7.03, and the Republicans left the county in debt i?24,719.23. These figures indicate that there was a deficit of $53,000.
