Mr. Carlcton Giles informs us that he
has been very successful in soliciting con
tributions for the Church building at
Turkey Tail; and the building i3 now pro
gressing in an encouraging manner. He
says the citizens of Msrginton, especially,
contributed very liberally.
Every day the country folks ask, " Well,
what is the Legislature doing ?" The
answer is, " Retrenching and Reforming."
Considerable interest is manifested in the
Asylum. The best opinion is that the
work is sr far advanced that it can com
mand strength enough in the Legislature
to insure its early completion.
This fine weather will put folks in the
notion of gardening so like Spring lime.
ilFlicther this be a " weather breeder" or
not, we do not undertake to say, but we do
know that, smee the First Quarter last

Mr, Isaac T. A very, living about two
miles from town had a horso stolen from
his stalLle last Tuesday night. On Wed
nesday he tracked the horse into the
neighljorhood of .ifr. Jho. Mace's, whers
he found him. The thief evidently rode
the horse into this neighborhood and
turned him loo3e, when the horse went to
Mr. Mace's house. '.
The work on the new graded road from
the McDowell ford bridge to town is pro
gressing well. We ought to have at least
one graded road through to the Mitchell
and Watauga lines. And while on this
subject wo take occasion to say that the.
road from the Rocky ford bridge this way
should be changed and brought to an easy
grade, which would not cost muck and
prove of great benefit to our folks who
lire out in that direction.
Avery Plow.
Having had repeated - calls far and re

have now secured the Agency and will
keep constantly on hand this valuable

Teachers Association.
Eev. R. L. Abernethy, who has been re
cently appointed by the Commissioners,
Countv Examiner! reauests us to state
that he proposes at an early day to call a
meeting of the teachers to assemble at
Morganton for the purpose of forming a
Teachers Association. He is desirous that
there shall be a full rum out on the occa
sion both of teachers and intelligent
friends of popular education. Whatever
tends to improve the teachers will be of
benefit to, the pupils aad shoidd eicite in
terest on the part of the public, generally.
The Committee.
As is known to most of our readers the
Burke member in the House asked for the
appointment of -i committee to investigate
the'affairs of the Western Eailroad and the
Asylum, and as a consequence Messrs.
. Snow, Davis and Cobb h-ve been desig
nated to do the job. Col. L. C. Jones is
named as the Engineer to assist them.
, In answer to the inquiries of the numer
ous friends and admirers of our Representative.-
as to " when the committee are
coming,'' we art pained to say we hare no
information.
Is He a Murderer?
On last Saturday a telegram was re
ceived here from a Mr. Payne, at Hickory,
drscribing a "one eyed Irishman" who had
passed through that place on foot, follow- 1
ing the line of the Railroad in this direc
tion, whom Payne requested should be ar
rested and held as a murderer. Town
Marshal Williams was started out on the
watch and soon picked up a tramp answer
ing te description. He was locked up to
await a requisition. In a few hours after,
here comes Payne, and to the astonishment
of every one, he knows nothing of the
alleged murder or the prisoner, save that
he saw a day or so before a hand bill post
ed over in Alexander somewhere, offering
a large reward for the apprehension o
some such person who had committed a
homicide away down East, somewhere he
did uot know where or when. Heaiing of
a one eyed man passing Hickory, he con
cluded there was money in him, and put in
as stated. When ne got here " with his
finger in his mouth," he was told he had
to make some sort of showing before he
would be allowed to carry the man away.
He has gone back to get information and
authority, meanwhile the stranger is in
durance.
One eyed men, beware of Payne !
A gentleman, in Florida writing to Dr.
Pearson, of this place, says:
Since last July I have been thinking of
yuur eieciion oi ine country until 15 has
become almost a fever. I first studied
your geographical situation, and the
more 1 thought over it the more favor
aoly J. became impressed with it. You
are protected from that blusterine' nlrJ
Northwest by three ranges of mountains
so mat you must be more protected from
severe cold and sudden changes than
Northern Georgia, where those ranges
01 mountains DreaK. Ami right?
I must get away from the Sea Coast.
The Northwest is ' as much too dry and
bracing as the Coast is too damp, and I
am, fully determined to become a "Tar
heel," for I think tar will heal me.
What is the nature of your soil? I
suppose it will produce fruit and vegeta
bles. Have you a newspaper? That is
what you need. If your section would
make one quarter the effort towards im
igration that Florida does, your country
would be as densely populated as any
section of the land, in a few years.
Tliis is evidently from a thoughtful and
intelligent man. He is a New Yorker who
went 'to Florida less than two years ago,
and altho' ho has done well there, he
thinks this is a better country. V e all
know that he is correct in his notions about
the protection aHorded by the mountair.fr
on the West and North' of us. Frait.3 in
profusion grow to perfection here, and all
the vegetables a3 well. All the cereals and
grasses are grown and stock raising can be
profitably followed. The .soil is good, , the
air pure and people clever.

" Will it pay to keep a c w, in village
or city ?" asks a reader of the American
Agriculturist, a professional man, living in
a village. H " has a stable, can get
pasturage during six summer months at
3 "J 'cents a wotk ; a boy will drive the cow
toHd from patittVro,' unii .milk -tier nig-ht
and morning, and feed and milk her in
winter for one-sixth of her milk.' Hay
costs $12 a ton; bran, 11 cents per. lb. I
can buy milk at 4 cents per quart, or sell
any surplus to neighbors at the same
price." A fair cow ought to average 10
quarts a day, 270 days in the year, or 2,700
quarts. Deducting one-sixth, or, gut, 500
quarts, for the boyi leaves 2,200 quarts, at
4 cents, equal to $S8. Six months' pas
turage, $10 ; about 3 toHS of hay, $36 ;
1,000 lbs. bran, or 6 lbs. a day for six
months, 13. Total cost, $58. Profit, $30.
The value of the calf, and especially of the
manure, should be worth much more than
the risk and any depreciation in value.
At these figures of cost, the cow woul' pay
$8 profit, reckoning the milk at only 3
cents per quart. The best profit would
come thus: Buy in spring a fresh milch
cow, a fair milker of common breed; keep
her from breeding ; milk her 6 fo 8 months,
or until she ceases to-give 7 quarts or more
a day; then dry her quickly, feeding a few
bushels of corn meal, until she gets in
good condition for beef, and sell her to the
butcher. Farrow cows thus treated, take
on fiYsh very mpidly, and make very good
beef, if only 6 to 8 year3 old. Thry will
sell for nearly as much for beef as they
cost in spring, and the winter's keep, and
los3 of three months' time are saved. We
much prefer a farrow cow's milk, especially
for younger children. A fresh, good milch
cow, bought in autumn, will yield fairly
during winter, and though farrow will
I keep up milk on summer pasture, and can
A be beefed in autumn,
or when she fails; in
profitable milk-flow. We should keep our
own farrow cow, evn if compelled to re
side in a city, hire a stable, and feed hay,
meal, and bran through the year. Ameri
can Agriculturist for January.

garden seeds, &c, for sale. Let our
farmers send a sample paper of their
purchases, this Spring to: the Station
they will be tested for them, and thy
will receive a certificate reporting the
quality and germinating power, and also
the per centage of weed seeds mixed
with them. The only expense will be a
three cent stamp. Send samples of gar
den seeds, grass seeds, clover seed, ic.

About that Surgical Operation.
As there has been considerable talk of
the wonderful operation performed in
removing the jaw bone of Mrs. Dobson,
we give below her statement :
" In 1869 my lower jaw bone became
diseased on the right side around the
two back teeth.. For three years the,
pain similating tooth-ache, at the end of
which lime I had both teetn extracted,
thinking that would put an end to the
trouble ; but soon after this a discharge
set up, and the disease still advanced
giving me much pain during the j next
six years. I visited several physicians
getting but little satisfaction in regard
to the nature of the disease or relief
from pain. Some prescribed the local
application of creosote and iodine to
check the disease, but all in vain, sjln
the fall of 1878 Dr. Whiteside, of Bridge
water, was called to visit me, being un
der the impression that he could do
nothing more than give temporary re
lief, when he pronounced it an ulcerative
process of the bone and, to my surprise,
told me there was a chance for me to get
finally cured by undergoing a surgical
operation to remove the diseased bone.
At this time the disease had advanced
beyond the chin upon the left side, the
discharge being very profuse. The
pain, at times, almost unbearable. I
readily gave my assent to submit to any
procedure to obtain relief. Dr. Collett,
of Morganton, was the chosen one to as
sist in the operation, and on the 25th of
November they met, and after submit
ting me to the influence of chloroform
they removed the affected bone, dis
articulating from the head upou the
right, extending so far as the eye-tooth
upon the left side. Since the operation
I have been entirely free from pain and
I am happy to say about well. Can
now chew very well on the other side.
May the Doctors live a long and happy
life. I can never forget them.
Mrs. E; Dobson.
For the Blade.
Gbtpfin, GA.,'Jan. 22ml, 1879.
Mr. Editor : Iu your issue of the
IStli iust. I see an account of a meetiug
held at Morganton to consider the pro
priety of repealing your present Home-
-J IT T ,T 7.
sieau uaw. jDeiug tnorougiily impress-
ed with the wisdom of this move, I trust
I will be pardoned, (notwithstanding I
am. an outsider) for saying a few words
in favor of its repeal, or at least of a
material reduction of the exemption al
lowed. I have had no little experience since
the war, both in North Carolina, and iu
Georgia, -as farmer, merchant and bank
er, and it is my deliberate convictiou
that tiie Homestead and Bankrupt laws
bavo been the chief curses inflicted upon
our material prosperity by reconstruc
tion. The Homestead Law if a delusion,
and a; fraud. An honest man will not
avail himaelf o'f its .provisions except un
der extreme circumstances, and iu nin?
teen .OiuPS out, of hwenfy. wueu a ilaoout
man does do so, ha is forced t it by
dishonest parties availing themselves of
this law to avoid paying hi in. O i;: of
the worst and most injurious features of
this law is tWat it places a premium on
dishonesty, and causes credit ami inter -
st to be high. The man who does not
admit that cheap credit and low interest,
(which are really identical,) are essential
to the prosperity of a civilized people,
in my humble opinion knows nothing of
political economy. A large majority of
tir people being poor, and compelled to
have credit are forced by reason of the
risk attending all credit transactions, to
pay not only a legitimate interest or
profit, bnt are forced to pay much more
for the risk attending the same, conse
quently the poor are kept poor, and the
rich .are not prosperous. Justice and
charily are both good things. Justice
however should bo done by the law be
fore charity begins. Honest laws make
houest men, and a prompt collection law
teaches man prudence, vigilance and
thrift. An honest man, by industry and
economy, rarely fails to. support those
dependant upon him, while the dishonest
liyes carelessly and extravagantly, know
ing that the State ha3 provided a law
that will enable him to discharge his in
debtedness without personal sacrifice,
and still allow him the doubtful privilege
of claiming to be honest because he is
only a rogue according to law.

From the Lynchburg Virginian, 24th.
$5,000 Found in a Tree.
A treasure np a tree was seen in the
watches of the night hy a peddler, whp
was sleeping in a farm house in the
Shennandoah Valley. He told his dream
to the farmer next morning, and on
three successive nights he had the same
vision. Then he prevailed ou the farm
er to accompany him to the forsst, where
his pointed out a large oak tree as the
one he had seen in hia dream. It was
apparently sound at the butt, bnt about
twenty feet up a limb had been broken
off. The. farmer did not feel like humor
ing what he supposed to bo a supersti
tious whim, bnt the old fellow seemed
to have contidence in bis vision, and
offered him one-half the spoils if be
would help him cut down the tree.
When the tree Ml there was a rattle of
corn near whore, the Limb uad been
broken off. and a Buiall hollow was
found there. By a little chopping a
larger cavity was found, and within was
a mass of silver. Both seemed wild
with delight, and on counting np found
ihat the pile amounted to $5,000. The
peddler ept essedhis unwillingness to
carry around so much sdver in his pock
et, and inquired where: he would be
likely to get greenbacks ; for his share.
The farmer, having considerable money
in his house, immediately transferred to
the peddler $2,500 in paper money and
took charge of the entire lot of silver..
The peddler disappeared and when bia
partner attempted to pass some of the
silver, lo ! it was counterfeit He was
the victim of a gang of coiners.
It makes a person feel sad to hear a cry
id; baby, suffering prouawy iroui some
slight pain, which could be easily relieved
by the nse of Dr. Bull's Baby Syrup, which
i3 for sale at all drug stores.
