Gen, Cnstis Iee, president f the Lee university in Virginia has written to Prof. Kerr of this city, and Major York of Chatham county, requesting a collec tion of North Carolina minerals to be forwarded to that University. We saw a piece of marble from Stokes county to be sent on there to-day. A Gold Mine in Montgomery. Senator Worth and a Mr. Streeter are working a gold mine together in Mont gomery county. In this mine some time last year we are told that they found a nugget of gold that weighed in its natural state one hundred and eighty- four penny weight, equal to about four hundred dollars. And then they mined besides about one hundred nennv- weight. the same dav. A Newbem Bride in Europe. iviiss lizzie, tne oeautiiui young uaugnter 01 juage manly, wno was recently married in Newbern to the wealthy Mr. Whidby of Baltimore, is now in Europe with her husband and accompanied by Miss Maria Manly, her accomplished sister. The tourists we learn will remain over the waters until Fall. A cable telegram was .received the other day by Jude Manly, reading t Manly: All well. Whidby." Big 11. It. Men at Durham. We are informed that Messrs. Wal ters, jNewcomoer ana imagers came from Charlotte this morning by special car to Durham, looking after the Chapel Hill Railroad, which is contemplated to tap either at that point or a few miles above at University Station. These gentlemen will spend all the morning about Durham, and are expected in this city this evening. Probably they will visit the Hoke iron mine at Chapol Hill. Hit with a Hatchet. Calvin Jonnakin (white) chopped Pe ter Fuller (colored) on the head with a hatchet, and as subdued by steel the tall ash tumbles down, so fell Peter, meas- ing 6 feet 7 inches high. Had the boys and the marbles been present a game could have instantly been played on Calvin's coat tail, nor is it certain he has vet stoDDed running. Peter is once more erect on his pins, though his head is a ciotnesnorse ior i j i .f- a bundle of ban- dage linen. Dr. l3ntchartt's Thanksgiving Sermon. Copies of this Sermon can be obtained of Messrs. Edwards and Broughton, and at the Bookstore of Mr. Alfred Wil liams, in this city. This Sermon is the result of much study and research, and is one of the best modern compendiums of the great principles of religious lib erty. It should be extensively read and circulated, and should be in the library of every lover of civil and religious liberty. Price, 4 ten cents per copy, at six cents per copy by the hundred. Educational Convention. Bear in mind, all ye friends of Edu cation, that the Educational State Con vention will assemble in the Baptist Church, in this city, to-morrow even- ing. This convention, tnougn caiiea in the interests of Wake Forest Callege, is, in no offensive sense whatever, a de nominational br dy. It is open to all the friends of education of every Church and party. We hope to see a fuU atten dance of the friends of .education!; Let us all regard this movement; as it really is, as a first and most important step in the great work of education in the State. Ashboro Eggs and Gold &c., Another place needs a railroad. Ash boro, Randolph county, is full of coun try wagons, loaded with produce of all kind; corn 85 cents, flour $7,50 per barrel, butter 20 cents, and in about three weeks, you can buy eggs by the barrel full, for ten cents a dozen. And' this place is 20 miles from the railroad with a hack running twice a week. Ydu can pan gold from the surface in the northwest corner of the court house yard. Mr. Hill, the present doorkeeper in the House, worked in gold mining in the branches and creeks around Ash boro for 18 years. He and His son used to collect from the branches four dollars a day in gold. Sam Walker, a promi nent merchant of Ashboro, has sold out his . store and moved to take charge as President of the Cedars Fall and Fraiiklinsville Cotton Factory, in that county. Our State.

His sickness, however is not serious, and it is exDected he will be on his feet in a the course of a day or two. Farm-Yard Scraps. It is funny, but it is true, this way of " how" to drive a hen into the coop, by Mr. J. M. Bailey of the Danbury (Conn.) News: When a woman has a hen to . drive into the coon she takes hold of her hoops ' with- both hands, shakes them quietly toward the delin quent, and says, Shew ! there." The hen takes one look at the object .to con vince herself that it's a woman, and then stalks majestically into the coop in perfect disgust of the sex. A man don't do that way. He-goes out doors and says, " It is singular nobody in this house can drive a hen but myself," and picking up a stick of wood hurls.it at the offending biped, and observes: "Get in there, you thief." The hen immediately loses Ler reason and dashes to the onDosite end of the yard. The man straiarhtwav dashes after her. She comes back asain with her head down, her wings out, and followed by an assortment or stove-wood, fruit-cans and coal-clinkers, with a much puffing and very mad man in the rear. Then she skims ud on the stoop, and under the barn, and over a fence or two, and around the house, and back again to the coop, all the -while talking as only an excited hen can ' talk, and all the while followed by things convenient for handling, and by a man whose coat is on the saw buck and whose hat is on the ground, and whose perspiratien and profanityappear to haye no limit. By this time the other hens have come out to take a hand in the debate, and help dodge the missiles and then the man says every hen on the place shall be sold in the morning, and puts on his things and goe down street, and the -woman dons her hoops and has every one of those hens housed and contented ... am . .

It is to be swallowed raw, and will carry down a bone easily and certainly. There is another fact touch ing eggs, which should be remembered. When, as sometimes by accident, corro sive sublimate is swallowed, the white of two eggs taken will neutralize the poison, and change the effect to that of a dose of calomel, . ... jr , (: . Death of a big butcher. Charles Trash, better known in New York Hty as " uig Charlie," is dead: In height he was 6 feet 4 inches, weighed over 300 pounds, and could lift a 300 pound ox with ease. The butchers all say that Big Charlie died of too much Coney Is land. It was his habit almost everv af- ternoon in the summer to go down to w that celebrated bathing place and lie and tumble about in the water for hours to gether like a big porpoise. Fists. jg Internal revenue stamps will not be abolished for the present. J5 Some nice little facts about sewing machines. The New York Bul letin tell us the fact is clear that for a series of years the public has paid from 50 to $80 apiece for machines which never cost more than from $5 or $3 each, and which could bo sold for from $15 to $20 each, and leave a handsome profit, and hence, we are told, it is time to throw the business open to fair compe tition and give the public the benefit of it. jeT The Herald's special Cuban correspondent, O'Kelly, sent a request to Gen. Morales to pass the Spanish lines. Morales replied te could go where he liked but if caught within the Cuban or Spanish lines afterward, he would be treated as a spy and shot accordingly. The Herald replies to this.' "If the Herald Commissioner receives any in jury at your hands without violating the laws of your, country,, you wil be held to a strict accountability, and will be made to suffer the penalty bf the outrage, not in the island of Cuba alone, but in every ' inob of soil that owes allegiance to the Spanish flag." S5 Trained shakes Mr. Frank Stockton, in his ' Roundabout Ram bles," tells us that boys and girls in France sometimes amuse themselves by getting up a snaketeam. They tie ings to the tails of two common harmless snakes, and then they drive them about, using a whip (I hope gently) to make these strange steeds keep to gether and go along lively. It is said that snakes which have been played with in this way soon begin to like their new life, and will allow the children to do what they please with them, showing all the time the most amiable disposition. There is nothing very strange in a trained snake. ?f A Cincinnati dry goods clerk proves to the editor of the Commercial that if he does part his hair in the mid dle, he's as full of poetical moonbeams as a nightingale of song.

Mr Harris, Methodist preacher sta tioned- in Hillsboro, said vesfcartLrr Jn his sermon, that a little boy where be preached last year encouraged him more than all his congregation. That the mother told him : " Jimmie never says' the Lord's prayer at night, without closing this way:" "Lord bless father and mother and Mr. Harris." Elder Closs of the Methodist Confer ence was once the preacher for the Fry ing Pan section of Tyrell county, and one night he praved: "Good Lord: pr wilt thou be pleased to send this people, another year, a minister they like better than thisone." "Amen," Amen," re sounded from the amen corners. The elder made a long pause and continued : And, Good Lord, wilt thou be pleased to send this minister, another year, to a people he likes better than this one." He had 'em then. BY TELEGRAPH.
