Tho farmers generally finish sowing their oats by the last of February. The wheat crop is very unpromising. Flour is on the rise. North Carolina flour was bought by the barrel from a wagon the other day at eleven dollars and a quar ter, good family flour. Corn is abun dant from ninety cents to one dollar. Forage is in demand on account of bad The Deaf, and Dumb and tho Blind Asylum. The first meeting of the new Board of Trustees of the State Deaf and Dumb and the Blind Asylum was held last night in the Institution. Mr. John Nichols, of this city, succeeds Mr. S. F.

The whole number of inmates in the institution, at the. present time, exclu sive of the officers and teachers, is one hundred and twenty. Petersburg and Weldon Koad. The surest way, if you want to spend all day in Weldon, and put up at the hotel, is to travel on that Petersburg and Weldon road. They hardly ever fail to ' miss connection," though sometimes they do make it, and a man is obliged, against his grain, to leave Weldon in a hurry. It's not for me to say that the conductors are interested in the hotel. Not by any manner of means. But they do miss it nice. J ust as easy. They missed it 3 times in succession this week. Now, how is that for high? The Supervisor and the Marshal and the Col lector and the Assessor, all in a bunch, are lying over at Weldon now, cooling their heels against the mahogany of-the hotel in that delightful place. Tuspector of Vegetables. There is no. such office as inspector of vegetables. It was but a little piece of pleasantry indulged in by . Rev. Mr. Mangum and a few of his intimate friends and it came to us with such a show of seriousness that we published it as a square out business item, not only believing such an office was of re cent creation, but that the selection to fill it was a capital one, for.there is but one thing Mr. Mangnni is more suc cessful at, than horticulture, and that is, an eloquent and effective preaching of the Gospel. This country has got to be a tailor shop for any man who's got the credit to walk in and try on an of fice, and were we to hear of, to-day, an inspector of speckled puppiesat a salary of two hundred dollars a monm, we should cry, Amen, it's a good office, and for the better protection and ad vancement of the revenue system. We were as innocent of indulging any pleasantry towaids Mr. Mangum as a young youth from the country with a HVinn Around his hat.

This remarkable canine is tho property of Mr. J. W. Til let! All these troubles an editor has to undergo. A , Reidsviile man bored the Groensboro Patriot, with a smile on its face as if it was listening with in tensest interest, for about an hour talk ing of tobacco and tobacco warehouses. Says Duffy : We were so full of the subject that we asked for a chew, al though we never use the weed.

Says the Greensboro State of Senator James Morehead : We noticed him from time to time, and complimented him by- printing entire, in our editorial columns, his farewell address. We aro afraid all this atteption spoiled him, and that he began to think his power greater than it really was. So. we find him advocating the Amnesty bill, and making one of his oily speeches in support of, that out- rageous measure. Personal Intelligence. Parepa Nilsson Kellogg Busk is the name given to an infant in Carlisle, Pa. Four thousand dollars is said to have been the lost'of Miss Rothschilds' wed ding gown. Voltaire said of Mademoiselle de Liv ery : "She was so beautiful that I raised my long, thin body, and stood before her like a point of admiration." Brooks and Garfield, who havn't spoken to Butler for years, went up to him and extended their hands the day after he made his great plea for the de fendants in the Credit Mobilier case.

Henry Ward Ueechersaysin the Christian Union that Prof. Tyndall's face is "long, thin, fringed with whis kers, without moustache or goatee, leaving his mouth, like the embrasure of a fort, clear for action." "Buchu" Helmbold is now earning his living in Paris as an assistant in a large drug house. ; This, for a man who appeared at Long Branch with a turnout of six-in hand, and. whose career was one of luxurious display, is certainly a remarkable change. Musical and Theatrical. Fifteen New York actresses have re cently joined the church. Strauss has arranged to give what he palls concerts of all " nations." in Vienna, during the Exposition. Offenbach's new three act opera " Les Rranonniers." (The Poachers) has proved quite successful at the Varieties, Paris. The Russiau Government has agreed to pay a large sum to M.

We remember that just after Janaus- check's superb impersonation of Lady Macbeth here last win ter, a person who heard her, spoke of her with great con tempt as compared with Mrs. D. P.

JGT" A singular fatality attended that woman fight iu Missouri which we published in the Era two days since. A correspondent writes to the Vienna (Mo.) Banner about it as follows: On the 26th day of last October, Mr. Wm. H. Brown called on the writer of tins article to preach the funeral sermon of his child, who died a few days before. The writer promised to do so, and the time and place were appointed. The next day Mr. Brown was thrown from his horse and killed almost instantly. On last Mondav morning, his widow, Julia A. Brown, applied to the writer to preach the funeral sermon of her de ceased husband and child ; the writer consented to do so, and appointed the first Sunday in March as the time. The next morning Mrs. Brown was fatal jy stabbed by Mrs. Bowler, and like her unfortunate husband, she passed in a moment' tune hito eternity. J. M. Johnson. JG Mr. Burke and the grasshop per. Sir Jniiiip u rancis, once waueu upon Burke, by appointment, to read over to him some papers respecting Mr. Hastings's delinquencies. He called on Mr. Burke in his way to the house of a friend with whom he was engaged to dine. He found him in the garden, holding a grasshopper. " What a beau tiful animal i this !" said Mr. Burke ; "observe its structure, its legs, its wings, its eyes." " How can you," said Sir Phillip, " lose your time in admir ing such an animal, when you have so many objects of real moment to attend to?" " Yet Socrates," said Mr. Burke, " according to the exhibition of him in Aristophanes, attended to a much less animal ; he actually measured the pro portion which its size bore to the space it passed over in its skip. 1 think the skip of a grasshopper does not exceed its length; let mo see." "My dear friend,' said Sir Phillip, " I am in a great hurry ; let us walk in, and let me read my papers to you." Into the house they walked ; Sir Phillip begau to read, and Mr. Burke appeared to listen. At length Sir Phillip having: misplaced a paper, a pause ensued. " I think,' said Mr. Burke, "that naturalists are now agreed that locusta, not cicada, is the Latin word for grasshopper. What is your opinion, Sir Phillip?" " My opin ion," said Sir Phillip, packing up his papers, and preparing to move eff, " is, that till the grasshopper is out of your head, it will be idle to talk to you of the affairs of India."

If any sheep is hurt, catch it at once and wash the wound ; and if it is fly time, apply spirits of turpentine daily, and always wash with something healing. If a limb is broken bind it up with splinters tightly, loosening as the limb swells. 13 Keep a number of good bells on the sheep. 14. Do not let the sheep spoil their wool with chaff or burs. 15. Cut tag-locks in early spring. 16, For scours give pulverized alum in wheat bran ; prevent by taking great care in changing dry for green feed. 17. If ore is lame, examine the foot, clean out between the hoofs, pare the hoof if unsound, and apply tobacco with blue vitriol, boilel ina littlo water. - 18.

The commissioners of this county should see to it that the roads are placed in good condition; and let them levy a tax to this effect. We want a good en- gmeertolay off new roads and good ones that will lead into this city. The people would much rather pay 25 cents on the head and so much on their prop erty to have a good practical engineer to lay off good roads and have them mac ademized, than the required twice every year to go out and work a day on these miserable, worn out, ditchy, muddv. stumnv. hillv. horrible and w as i disgraceful roads. We tell, these com- missiners that the laborers are hot for this tax, and it certainly is to the inter est of the men of property to advocate it; for they are the ones that use the roads. TJaere's no ' use sticking your hands in your pockets and contemplat ing this article with no more than a passing thought. We tell you that un less you act in this matter so thouwJ, ing people can see they have been bene fitted, that tho people will havo com missioners who will do it. KAL.EIGH MARKETS.
