There is no area on the face of the earth of the same extent which bears so many varieties and such inexhaustible quantities of use ful minerals, and some that are found in few countries, if anywhere else on the globe. After lying hid den since creation's morn in the bosom of the earth these treasures have only within the life time of the present generation begun to attract attention, and as yet, it might be said, have only begun, for one-half the South's mineral resources are not yet known, and the pick of the miner has not gone into the hundredth part of them. There is not a day that does not add to the discoveries made, for scores of explorers are out prospecting for capitalists seeking investments. This great mineral re gion is becoming known, and its stores of buried wealth are begin ning to be appreciated. Nor is there another section of the world which possesses to the same extent the same fortunate condi tions for-the profitable utilization of these vast mineral deposits that the South does. Generally speaking her great iron deposits lie in close prox imity to coal deposits necessary for the working of the iron, of limestone formations, also necessary, and an abundance of forest growth to supply all the demands for wood and timber. In addition to this the numerous navigable rivers, with many railroads, being added to every year, furnish the necessary transpor tation facilities, so that there is nothing to prevent the South in the near future from becoming the great iron and steel manufacturing section on this continent. There are mid dle aged people living who will live to see this realized. But there is another great source of wealth ,above ground, about which so much has not been said nor writ- ten. the fnrecr -.- n r A, ... , , 11C y)l tne ;jOUtn-s greatest treasures, though it seems to be prized but lightly, not one person in a thousand giving it a thought or having the re motest conception of its value. In no other section of the world is there an equal variety and an equal abun dance ot the valuable and useful timbers of commerce. The very abundance of our forest growth has caused our people to set a lower value upon it and to make but little calculation upon it. There are others, however, who are familiar with the timber question, the sources of sup ply, and the demands upon it. They have come with eyes wide open for investment and have bought, some times for a mere song, thousands of acres of this untouched forest. They have prospected all through the South for walnut, hickory, maple and other woods suitable for the manu facture of furniture, carriages, bug gies, &c, and have bought thousands of acres of these for almost noth ing. The walnut and hickory supplies of other sections of the country have been practically exhausted so that manufacturers are forced to look to the South for a supply for the fu ture. Of course this means that these timbers will become annually more valuable, and is a reason why the judicious man should not be wil ling to sell for a merely nominal val uation, as so many who did not have a conception of its value have done and perhaps some are still doing. We remember reading not long ago of the sale of some wal nut trees in West Virginia some of which brought as high as $137. This is an exception, however, the rule being .that this timber is bought at a trifling price. But if she didn't have a stick of any other kind of timber the pine forests of the South are a vast trea son in themselves; and are becoming annually more valuable. The sources of pine wood supplies in other sec tions of the country have become practically exhausted, and in the fu ture the South must be looked to to supply the demand which the in creasing population will annually make greater. It is estimated that there are now in our Southern pine forests 212,937,000,000 feet of merchantable yellow pine, which, at a valuation of $10 a thousand, would amount to the magnificent sum of $2,129,370,000. The value will in crease instead of decrease, for as the population of the country increases the demand must increase, while the supply will decrease, increasing pro portionately the price. "He is a wise man who holds his pine possessions carefully and cuts and sells judicious ly; he is a foolish man who reckless ly barters it away for a small price, or thoughtlessly slaughters it for a little present gain. MINOR MENTION. Senator Dawes, of Massachusetts, with Ingalls, Paddock and Plumb, voted with the Democrats Wednes day for a reduction of duty on iron ore from 75 to GO cents a ton. He did this, of course, in the interest of iron manufacturers of his State, to cheapen iron ore, the price of which to the New England iron workers has been a serious obstacle in com petition with manufacturers of other sections where iron abounds and is cheap. The Massachusetts iron workers have been besieging Con gress for free ore, and they are not only refused that but this small re duction of fifteen cents a ton which was asked for and voted down. Like all the New England Senators Dawes is a high protectionist, but he seems to have discovered that a reduction of duties on iron ores wouldn't be such 'a bad thing, but as he is a high protec tionist from interest, not from prin ciple, so in this instance he voted for a reduction of duty on iron ore from interest, not from principle. He voted with the majority against re duction in every other instance on which it was proposed. The "original package" question has at last been settled, the House having adopted the Senate bill which applies to liquors only as a sub stitute for its own previously passed, which applied to all articles of com merce. It was held that the House bill was too general in its scope, loo sweeping, and that practically it neu tralized the inter-State commerce law and might in certain cases be used to destroy inter-State commerce. The object of the Senate bill does not seem to have been so much to settle a doubtful question of State jurisdiction, as to get around the dif ficulty and doubt involved in the constitution of the late original pack age decision "by the U. S. Supreme Court, some contending that under that decision the State had neither the right to prohibit the importation of liquor nor the sale of the liquor when imported. The Senate bill set tles this question by making the liquor delivered within the State sub ject to the police regulations of the State, as the House bill also did. Senator Plumb, of Kansas, seems to be making an honest effort for a reduction of tariff duties, but with, very little success so far. The pro tected manufacturers have the Re publican majority, with a few excep tions, in their grip, and the result is an almost solid vote against every amendment looking to reduction, save those offered or accepted by the committee. The motions to reduce are voted down in a stolid, arbitrary way, no effort being made by the majority to show that the fate of taxation proposed is necessary, or that a lower pate might not be safely made. They don't seem to think that the minority nor the people who pay the taxes are entitled to any showing or explanation on this point. Between the protected manufacturers and their friends in Congress the people are getting a wretched poor showing on this tariff question. The inflicting of the death penalty by electricity on Kemmler, in Auburn, N. Y., penitentiary, Wednes day morning, after all the law's de lay, settles the fact, which was stub bornly resisted, that this is a sure, and as far as can be demonstrated, a painless way of dispatching criminals sentenced to death. But we don't think it will strike the public with so much favor as to be adopted to any considerable extent in place of hanging. It is too complicated, and too liable to mishaps, even at the last- moment. The fact that there was something wrong in this case after the extraordinary efforts to have everything work smoothly, and that a second shock had to be given to make death sure, shows this. The old method of hanging may not be as scientific no as artistic, but it is when well done quite as expeditious, effective and probably as painless. STATE TOPICS. The completion of the extension of the North Western N. C. R. R. from Winston to Wilkesboro, which is announced, the first through train from Greensboro to run next Mon day, is a matter of importance not not only to that section but to the State. Of course the prospect of the completion of this work gave a stim ulous to the town of Wilkesboro, where a spirit of progress has spread itself, which will doubtless result in a town of considerable importance. The country which the road pene trates is a fine agricultural section, rich in mineral deposits, and withal with its rich valleys and bold hills crowned with a glorious forest, at tractive to the eye. The road will not stop at Wilkesboro, but will in the near future push on to Jones boro, Tenn., or some other point, to connect with the Western system of roads, making another great through line for North Carolina. CURRENT COMMENT. Betwen accepting gifts, sup porting his wife's relatives and send ing anti-lottery messages to Con gress while his son is publishing lot tery advertisements, Presideut Har rison may exclaim: "Uneasy rests the head that wears a crown." Cleveland Plain Dealer, Dem. -President Celman of Argen tine seems built much after the model of our own Harrison, in that he charges the opposition with all responsibility for recent troubles in his domain. Like President Harri son he finds the people and the world disagree with his views. Indianapo lis Sentinel, Dem. Mr. Ingalls has naturally been pained by the freedom with which Senators have recently criticized the House. It is all out of order and does not comport with Senatorial dignity, but it is pretty hard for any American citizen to observe in si lence the neglect of the House to transact necessary business after having surrendered itself to the Speaker in order to prevent fillibus tering. Phil. Ledger, Ind. In the Anti-Lottery bill pro posed by the Post Office Depart ment officials no regard is paid to the rights of citizens or corporations as such. If the New Orleans National Bank, for example, should continue after the passage of this bill to act as agent for the Louisiana Lottery Company its mail matter would not be delivered, and none would be ac cepted from it. Such an act of pure despotism might please fanatical pu rists who think the carrying out of their whims of more importance than the maintenance of equal rights for the people ; but the sober second thought of all enlightened persons would condemn it.

A Partial Synopsis of Amendments Passed in 1887. Raleigh News and Observer. ; We publish for the benefit of those who may not have carefully exam ined them, a partial synopsis of the amendments to the Election Law passed at the session of 1887, 1. Registrars must be appointed by the first Monday in September pre ceding the election. 2. Registration books must be opened thirty days before the day of closing them and must be closed On the second Saturday preceding the election. This renders it necessary that new registrations shall be ordered by the various Boards of County Commis sioners by the 2-ith of August, in order to give the required thirty days' notice thereof. A new registration is necessary, in every county where no registration has been had under the law as amended in 1889. The County Commissioners should attend to this at once, if they have not done so. Section 2676 of the Code is amend ed by adding thereto: No registration shall be valid un less it specifies as near as may be the age, occupation, place of birth and place of residence of the elector, as well as the township or county from whence the elector has removed in the event of a removal and the full name by which the voter is known." The registration books are to be open for inspection and challenge on the second Saturday preceding the election. Section 2681 is amended to read: Upon the request of any elector the registrar shall require the applicant (for registration) to prove his iden tity, or age and residence by such testimony under oath as may be sat isfactory to the registrar." The register shall record the name, age, occupation, place of birth and place of residence of the elector, and the name of the township or county from which the elector has removed in the event of a removal also the date of . registration, in the ap propriate column of the registration book. Section 2682 is amended so that the registrar is to put on his book on the day of election any one becoming of age since the books were closed, provided he be found otherwise en titled to vote. Section 2,688 is amended as fol lows : Each box is to be labelled in plain and distinct Roman letters with the name of the office or offices to be voted for. The majority of the judges of elec tion for the county and State offices may rail off a space or enclosure as a polling place to hold the election for State and county officers. Only one voter shall be allowed to enter at a time, and no one but the judges ot election shall be allowed to speak to him or interfere with him while cast ing his vote, which shall fbe put in the proper box or boxes by the voter himself or by the judges at the re quest of the voter. A similar but separate polling place may be railed off for Congressional and Presidential elections. In such event the registrar "shall appoint a deputy registrar for that separate polling place, to whom shall be furnished the names of all per sons entitled to vote, and the judges of election shall appoint two judges or inspectors of election for that polling place, who shall be of differ ent political parties. The registrar and judges so appointed shall be sworn, etc. But if the judges of election do not see fit to adopt this plan the old regulations are to be observed. Section 2694, which relates to the board of county canvassers, is amen ded by adding to it, "Said board shall have power and authority to judicially pass upon all the facts rel ative to the election, and to judicially determine and declare the true re sult of the same, and they shall also have power and authority to send for papers and persons and examine the latter upon oath." WHAT IT C0STS.r How Congress Shovels Out the Pension Money. New York Sun. There is no business in Washing ton so lucrative as the pension busi ness. Those who started in a few years ago comparatively poor, are now rich. Thousands and thousands of dollars are now being lavishly ex pended for advertising purposes. One attorney, who has a rather small business, has ordered half a million blanks and circulars, and has put all ot his surplus cash into the business of advertising. There is a good deal of money expended every year for the benefit of the soldiers and sail ors of the late war. So tar during this Congress the following appro-' priations have been made or will be made: Regular Pension act $98,457,461 Eestimated deficiency for 1891 50,000,000 Back pay and bounty 724,000 Soldiers' National Homes . . 2,650,000 Aid to State and Territorial Soldiers' Homes 400,000 National cemeteries 247,000 Deficiency in pensions pasfi'd at present session 25,300,000 Pension Office administra tion (clerks, messengers, etc.)..:' 2,439,150 Supplemental bill for clerks in Pension Office . 636,189 Total expenditure for the benefit of veterans $181,153,800 The estimated revenues of the country are $450,000,000, and the surplus is now only $55,000.

President Carnot is said to be the most tastefully dressed public man in France. , There will be at Lawrenceburg; Tenn., on August 19, a grand birthday celebration in honor of Davy Crockett," and a great impetus will be given there by to the movement for a monument to Davy. John Price Buchanan, Demo cratic candidate for Governor of Ten nessee, is 43 years old and a cousin of President Buchanan. He entered the Confederate army when 16 years old. W. S. Williams, of Cherokee county, Alabama, is the father of twenty-eight children, the eldest of whom is 49 years old and the youngest 6. Mr. Williams is in his 70th year, and is still hale and vigorous. The late Dr Peters, the astron omer, was most unassuming. He never would say "I have discovered so and so, but so and scr "has been discovered at Litchfield observatory." He was also a great lover of flowers and trees. Mrs. Ira L. Likes, of Hayes City, Neb., has the reputation of being one of the smartest lawyers in that State. She is only 29 years old, but has been an enthusiastic law student ever since she was 17, arid likes the business. Prince George of Wales is not to arrive in Newport, R.

C, February 2j, aES. The subscriber has been for many years acquainted with the beneficial effects resulting from the use of the Sparkling Catawba Spring water. It restores the lost appetite, reguiates the action of the bowels and kid neys, clearing the skin, and removing eruptions (usually benefited by sulphur or arsenic). By its use the pa tient gains weight, strength ana spirits. I have not seen more general beneficial results from the use of any other mineral water with which I am acquainted. jy 17 D&W tf J. B.
