Mis. Anna McKesson IJusbee, wife

thousand peas raised from one pea.
Karly in the Spring Mr. Harrison
planted in his garden a small quan
tity of the Japanese pea, a new va
riety lately introduced into this
rou n try merely lor experiment, and
the rc -alt is most astounding. The
pa is cxd for the table and is
Irfnind to become popular for stock

We advise all who are interested in
this matter to call on Mr. Harrison
and -co the bush. It is a real curi
' -ity.
Tim: State Fair. The four
teenth annual State Fair closed on
Saturday, the 17th inst., after the
most successful exhibition probably
ever held in the State. The number
of articles far exceeded those of last
year, while the crowd in attendance
was much larger than at any pre
vious time. We learn that the pro-m-ds
this year will be sufficient to
place the Society upon a firm basis,
and that more extensive arrange
ments will be made hereafter than
ever before.
We will endeavor in a future is
sue to give a statement of the re
ceipts and the number of persons in
attendance as nearly as possible.
This can only be arrived at after the
Society has had a settlement with
the various roads and comparison
made with the Secretary's books.

New Jail. The Grand Jury for
the late term of the Superior Court
have made ti report on thecondk
tion of the Court House and Jail,
and recommend the erection or a
new jail on the lot immediately
south of the present one, and furth
er advise the alteration of the old
building so as to render it suitable
for a deposit of records. We think
the suggestions of the jury should
at once receive the attention of the
Board. The many escapes of late
years prove that our prison facili
ties have been too much neglected.
A new building would prove an
economical investment in the end.
Another Show. Although the
crowd has somewhat thinned out
and the Fair is over, we wish to
call the attention of our readers to
the fact, that there is still a big
show in town and one well worth
seeing. Our friend J. M. Rosen
baum, better known among his,
friends as " Jonas," has on hand one
of the finest stocks of Ready-made
Clothing, Dry Goods, Hats, Caps,
Millinery Goods, Notions Fancy
Goods, &c, to be found in any city
South of the Potomac River. Add
ed to these, " Jonas" keeps constant
ly onwhand ai I , k i uds of Crockery
Ware, which he is offering to the
public at the most reasonable prices.
.This establishment is situated at the
corner of Fayetteville and Hargett
streets, next door to Simpson's Drug
Store, and better known through
out the surrounding country as
" Smith's big building." And now
having told our friends what " Jo
nas" has 'to' show, we respectfully
call attention to his prices. He
charges nothing for admission b'ut
having entered, such an array
cheap goods' presents itself to the
eye that. jinxJady 1 or gentleman
hardly ever leaves without a bun
dle. The merchant, lawyer, doctor,
farmer, mechanic or anybody else,
can always find something to8ui

The mother of Col. W. II. Thom

Mr. Moses Allison, a carpenter,
was killed in Charlotte on the 14th.
by being struck by swaying rafters'
of a building erecting, and knocked
from the scaffold to the ground. He
leaves a wife and a number of chil
dren. The New-Berne Times says : On
Sunday evening last, at about 8
o'clock, while the family were at
church, the residence of Geo. W.
Simmons, colored, living near Bach
elor's Creek, took fire and with its
contents was entirely consumed.
The fire it is supposed originated
from some defect in the chimney.
The Hickory 'Press says : Mr. W.
M. Puett, of JLenoir, laid on oar ta
ble, last week, a beautiful specimen,
of asbestos that came from a vein
of this mineral in Caldwell county.
This mineral can be woven into
cloth. The cloth is of course in
combustible, hence the ancients used
asbestos cloth to wrap up the bodies
of their dead when they were
burned so the ashes could be saved.
If cremation becomes popular, an
asbestos mine will be a fortune.
Mr. John C. Wooten, Sr., informs
the Kinston Gazette that he has
saved eleven4 tons joCtho very best
of hay from three acres of land and
at a cost of not more than ten cents
per hundred pounds." Thig ! hay is
equally as good as any JCofthejrn
il is worth at least SH per
hundred pounds, wHlch'at the low-'
est calculation will leave mm a net
profit of $80 per acre ! Let others
of our farmers imitate Mr. Wooten's
example another" year " Why boy

" Extraordinary Scene. The
protracted meeting at Jersey meet
ing house, in Davidson, recently,
resulted in'the conversion of a large
number of persons. On Sunday
last, tho Rev. Mr. Jordan, assisted
by Rev. Mr. Richardson, baptized
by immersion sixty-seven persons.
They were of all ages from ten to
sixty years, male and female. They
marched in procession totnestream.
The scene was extraordinary not
only tis to the number to be bap
tized, but also in respect to the feel

The Wadesboro Herald says : Mr.
Thos. L. Shaw, now employed in
the Railroad shops at Laurinburg,
has invented a " bumper" and
coupling" for cars, which we
think must come into very general
use. To our unskilled eyo it seems
Cerfect, so that no more men will
e crushed to death, nor have arms
and legs and bodies mangled in the
now hazardous, work of " coupling
up" trains. Letters patent have
been applied for, ana Mr. H. G.
Fladger goes to Raleigh this week
to exhibit the model at the State
Fair. He also carries the model of
another invention of Mr. Shaw a
sash and car-window fastening,
which displays much ingenuity and
skill. It differs from, and seems to
be better than, all' others we have
seen. :
The Hickory Press says: The
Rev. G. H. Hoody, a Baptist min
ister of Caldwell county, is a re
markable man. When Mr.'Moody
was 32 years old, and had a wife
and four children, he felt called to
study for the ministry. He left his
family arid spent two years at the
Baptist Theological Seminary at
Greenville, S. C. After leaving the
institution he taught school till he

We congratulate the- people of

Florence Railroad to Shoe Heel on

viewing all the circumstances at
tending -the work upon which the
board of directors have recently en
tered, and taking into consideration
the very serious difficulties and un
usual obstacles which have opposed
the consummation of their plans
and wishes, we feel that a due meas
ure of credit should be accorded to
the President of the Road. Mr. A.

for their faithful exertions in finding

citizens for the earnestness which

having in charge a colored prisoner
by the name of John Washington,
who was sent hereby Justice Rufus
Garriss,to be committed -to jail in
default of a bond of $500 for his
appearance at the next term of
Superior Court. Washington is
charged with having emptied a load
of shot into the body 6f one Amos
Wheeler, colored, under the follow
ing circumstances ;
On last Thursday night Washing
ton wa3 walking along the road
near Wheeler's house when a dog
belonging to the latter attacked
him in the road, when he killed it.
The next day he approached a shop
on theplantatlori of Mr. Archibald
McMillian, where Wheeler was at
work. Some words in reference to
the killing Qf the dog passed be
tween them, when Wheeler raised
his gun, which was near at hand,
and shot at Washington, but missed
him. The latter, who had his gun
with him, ; loaded with ddck shot,
thereupon, returned, the fire, pepper
ing Wheeler in the left side and
shoulder biit' inflicting- only flesh
wounds.' Both parties were after
wards arrested, when Wheeler gave
a bond of $500 for his appearance,
and Washington, failing to do so,
was sent here and lodged in jail.
mi. Journal. . 1 1 ,
On the night of tho 12th of Au
gust, ' Dr. , Blackburn, imprisoned
hereby the United States authori
ties on the charges of counterfeiting
and conspiracy, made his escape.
Owing to i the fact, that Blackburn
had proved Daser man nis cometier
ates in crime by betraying them,
(or pretending that he would give
such information as would leaa to
their conviction) couplea witn me
circumstance of his being a cnppie,
at the suggestion of counsel and
r
sdme of the officers of the Govern
ment, he was allowed unusual
privileges at the jail, and took
advantage of them to escape.
A short time since Sheriff Young
received a letter from a gentleman
in Johnston county, Tenn., inform
ing him that Blackburn was in that
'icinity, and wishing to know if
there was any reward for his cap
ture. The Sheriff answTered prompt
ly, proposing, to pay 200 out of
his own pocket. We have the de
tails of 'the arrest from his captor,
Mr. R. B. Stanfiel.
C Blackburn had returned to the
neighborhood of where his wife
resides, on the land of Ex-Sheriff
3IcQueen. He would spend the
day in the woods, sometimes in
company with a tenant on the place,
named George Fritz. A negro no
ticed "Blackburn come out of b n t z's
house early one morning, and he
informed Stannel.
Stanfiel then laid his plans to trap
Blackburn. He hired the negro to
watch him, and the first night he
went to Fritz's house, to place a
draw-bar in a prominent place near
the road, to indicate that the bird
was caged. Three nights in sue-
cession, no visited tne spot, out
found no draw-bar. On the fourth
night it wa"s in the place appointed,
and he secured the services of three
other men, went to the house, and
about daylight on Friday morning
last arrested Blackburn, who was
in bed. They brought him here
Tuesday morning. Blackburn's
cup of iniquity is well nigh full. In
addition to being charged with
counterfeiting, an indictment is
against him in Johnston county,
Tenn., for rape; and on Thursday
last Sheriff Young served a capias
on him from Mitchell county, in
which he is charged with rape.

the Cashier of the Milford National
Bank at Nashua, N. II., gagged him
and put a rope around his neck,
shut his wife and four children and
servant in the closet, then dragged
him to the bank and made him open
the vault, which they robbed of
about $4,500 in currency, $15,000 to
$20,000 in bonds, mostly Govern
ment, and some other securities.
They then led him back to his house
and tied him to a bed post and left.
The family forced open the closet
about 4 o'clock and gave the alarm,
but no traces of the robbers could
be discovered.
The Committee of the Peabdy
Fund Trustees, consisting of Wm.
M. Evarts, John H. Clifford and
Samuel Wetmore, appointed to con
sider the subject of mixed schools
in the South, -report that after the
most careful comparison of opinion
and the most solicitous considera
tion of all the elements of the dis
cussion affecting the interests of ed
ucation in the various States, for
their white and colored population,
they have unanimously come to the
conclusion that the prospects and
hopes of the public system of educa
tion at the South will receive a se
rious if not fatal blow from any leg
islation which should makesuch sys
tems of education, maintained only
on a scheme of mixed schools as to
the organization required for such
public education. The Board are
of the opinion that while justice
and public duty, as well as the in
terests and feelings of the white
and colored people . of the South
concur in demanding a system of
public education which should give
equal opportunities and equal ad
vantages to the children of either
color, that no such result would be
promoted by the compulsory sys
tem of mixed schools. The com
mittee, in conclusion, say that these
views are set forth in the report of
the General Agent, which is accept
ed and approved as expressing the
unanimous opinion of the Trustees.
i,Hon. A. II. Stephens addressed
the people of Augusta, Georgia, on
the 16th inst. He spoke for about
two hours and a half. He reviewed
the history of the government from
its foundation to the present time,
showing that the great struggle has
always ;been between centralism
and constitutionalism ; the passage
of the Civil Rights bill would work
great evil and destroy the public
school system of the fcouth ; refer
red to President Grant ; would do
him JU3tioe he had done his duty ;
us to the third term he had no ob
jection to that: per se he saw no
reason why a President who exe-
cuted the laws faithfully should not
be elected for a third term if the
people desired it ; had looked into
the Louisiana question and saw no
sense in abusing President Grant
for his action in that affair ; spoke
hopefully of the future republic;
advised his hearers to obey the
laws, suppress lawlessness ! and be
true to the Constitution and Union
as established by our fathers ; pro
claimed himself a Jeffersonian
Democrat, and had great faith in
the triumph of those principles. I
Mr. Stephens had an immense au
dience and spoke with clearness aud
vigor, exhibiting no signs of weari
ness. Market Summary. In New
