for $2,000 will be turned over to the
heirs'-to-morrow. This money would
have been paid over some time ago,
as soon as proofs of death were fur
nished, but for the fact that Mrs
Heyerbas been absent from the city
aud the payment was deferred, at
her request, until her return here.
Cotton Short in Tnree Counties.
The fact is being developed that
the cotton crop in Anson, Union
and Mecklenburg counties will run
very short this year. The frosts
last week are assigned as the cause.
In Ansbh the estimate by some is
one-half and by others not more
than one-third of a crop; in Union
it is one-half and perhaps not more
than one-fourth and in Mecklen
burg one-half to one-third. The
frost, which was earlier this year
than usual, found the cotton fields
full of young bolls and blooms and
these were killed, while the large
bolls were not injured,
Long Foretold.
The construction of the Cape
Fear and Yadkin Valley Railroad,
say the Raleigh Hews and Observer,
has so satisfactorily progressed that
PresidentGray proposes to celebrate
the new year by running his cars
from Mt. Airy into Wilmington.
Thirty years ago, we remember
standing before the-map in the hos
pitable residence of our friend R. K.
Bryan, at Scott's Hill, j and he then
developed to us the projected lines
in the State. At the conclusion he
traced substantially what he termed
the great line from Wilmington up
the Cape Fear to Greensboro and
west. It was the path of the pre
sent C. F. & Y. V. That road, he
said, will have to be built. And now
after three decades, we are to wit
ness the realization of his prophecy,
based on the natural wants of our
people. It is a great State work;
and we hope it; will accomplish its
purposes not merely in promoting
the prosperity of tho people living
in the counties through which it
passes, but also in drawing into the
folds of a closer union the eastern
and western sections jf our State.
We hope to see our common wealth
so united in the bonds of trade and
unified by. intercourse that our peo
ple shall have but a tingle aspira
tion, a single policy, a common
prosperity.
