F. & Y. V. R. R., between Hen nettsville nnil Mount Airy, To be exact there are 85 steam saw mills and U plnnini; mills and ilrv kilns. This isoi the old part of the road. There or. others in oix-ration on the new line Ih tween this city and Fayetteville. Then are live of these new. c II nut up. sine work on the road was lieuun, and oilier? will lie in operation at an cnrlv day. All of these mills saw nine lumlier. Tin list as completed which means that th mills between this citv and Fnyettcvill are not included in the count is as tol lows, etc. At first blush this seems extreme! gratifying. It marks the life, the energy the industry awakened in a region one solitary and still, where the mournlu sighing of the pines seemed to breath out the never ceasing lament of solitud and neulcct, and where no echo of iudus try disturbed the solemn silence. Int these dense wildernesses the railroad have pushed their way, and wrought tli chnnge that follows light projected o to the realms of darkness. And it is chunge for which, as a practical qucslim we cannot grieve. A lienifieent nntun bad prepared in her bounteous treasun bouse all these stores to lie used by ma when his wants demanded thcm.justn he had laid away her stores of coa prcpnred in the deep obscurity of Ion departed ages when the disapiearanee i the forest bclbrc the march of liuma progress and population made iuicriwu demand for oilier sources for fuel supph Nothing that nature has so provided ca be spared merely in deference to a'sthct emotions. The forests, grand, solem and beautiful, cannot stand merely Ik cause they are the most attractive God's wouderlul handiwork. They hav their direct nnd practical uses with chit am! indispcnsulilc connection with all u man's movement in the direction civilization, with his necessities fo building, for fuel, for structures, for im plements in the arts, nnd in the appl nnecs ol domestic comfort, or the exac tions of luxury. The forests must used. And in connection with the slate nients of the Keview.it must lie admit te that the uses so strikingly called to n ticc, are the only uses to which these loi estscunbe applied, and only applicubli through the genius which have mad them accessible nnd attainable. Hutnn energies have been stimulated, industn awaked, industry rewarded, prosperil, diffused, population increased. So lar so good. But what is apparent is tha moderation will have no voice or advi cate. For a hundred and liftv years them grand pine forests stretching to tin uepth ol a hundred miles along our east ern shores, have been the treasure houst from which successive generations hav deliberately drawn their annual n sources, ns modest income from a iermu nent investment. Now the indications an that the capital stock is to Ik invaded am squandered witn the reckless haste am waste that has obliterated thegrent pint forests ot Maine, New York nnd I'entmyl, vnnia, and rapidly consuming those o Michigan and Wisconsin. The ruinom invasion is now directed upon the South and before another generation ourgrnnil solemn "pincy woods" will have passed into history. The teniier of this genera tion is tn consume everything in its owi day and leave nothing to mtcrity. Tin same avaricious spirit to apply every thing to present uses that has been fol lowed by the extirpation of the buffalo the disappearance of the once cnunihst myriads of wild pigeons, the extinction of the once great flights of the hcautifu paroquet, the rarity of other once numei ous birds and nnimnls, all directly tract able to human waste and greediness narks itself with striking emphasis ii its relation to the forests. No one herd when hull is called. There is tt wild rush to share in the spoil to he gathered We tremble when we hear ol investments in Southern timlerrd binds, for we know what It mean. Hut there will IX no check by the evil until the mischief is all done, when the plains and the hill hall have been stripped and stand ex posed in bare desolation, when the streams shall dry up or be reduced in volume, when long droughts shall parch the land or furious floods shall drown it ; and then the scientist will propose hi theories to remedy that which cannot be remedied, and lorestry commissions hall how how wise it is to repair the waste thut might have been prevented, and de monstrate how easy it ii to provide for future generation other forest! planted by human hand, a if American people bad ever any thought of future genera tions, or If they ever had patience to wait the growth of that which some body else wni to use. The motto of this generation In respect to the forest Is, "lay on Macduff, etc." Don't know where we are ? Why, you can't mUa It If you cast your optica down Main Street. MARTIN'S MARKET. Appeal to moderation is idle. We shall not live to see it, but it is clear that our lorests are doomed to the fate that has lallen on them elsewhere. THOMAS aTkUIHON. The Charlotte Democrat gives us the lollowing idea of the iersonal appearance of this wonderful man ; "Mr. Edison is ns unconscious as a boy, lull and clean of face, five feet ten, with graceful forty-yeur-old rotundity ol tin ore. lie has a certain pallor nnd con siderable ol tne actor cast about his feat ure, and so naive nnd meaning is the 'mile that charmingly runs constantly ibout his mouth, that one might sat he .hii'ks with his lips. He has eves rather muill than large, more blue than gray, .lint twinkle with merriment which it piict and with shrewdness that is half irnctical, half absent and contemplative. Mr. Edison is a great man the world iver, nnd is justly a lion wherever he oes." He "is n great man the world over," renter than wnrrior, greater than orn or, greater than poet For he is one of .hose conquerors who boldly invaded the calms of nature and wrested therefrom ome of its most recondite mysteries and oibdued to the common use nnd purpose f mankind. To such men we owe it .hut the present age has been able to eap in the short bound of hull' a ccnttirj ver more ground thun it hud covered in ,11 the long course of human history. It little more than a century ngo t hat Watt wide available what every child had .uowii Irom creation, theexpansivepow r of steum, chained its powerful volatik orccs, harnessed them, set them to work ind then made possible the work tha i-'ulton first begun, to fill the rivers nud he sea, with vessels propelled by steam subverting nt once all old timesystems ol invigation; oi thut gnve courage to the .-cuius of Stephenson to applv to land onvevuncc the locomotive engine wliicl, nnv now traverse all continents nud pan bn.h hemispheres, to the nnnihila inn of distance and the reduction ol time ml it is not much more than a centun ince Franklin suutched Mum the cloud: i mystery, the identity of the lightning villi the electric spurk which the philos- pherdelighled in his laboratory toevolt nun his Leydvnjnr.nnd thussuggest iilea vhich expanded until elaborated b A'hcatstone and Morse into theelectri elcgrnph now the instantaneous vcliicl I thought from oneend of theenrth to tin tlicr, girdling the cat til in less tha .'nek's forty minutes. The greatest oi ,11 triumphs was reserved for Edison .'or he has seized upon llicesscntial spirit I the lightning, its brilliancy, a ml mm l the liamlinaiilin of human convenience vbcii night comes on to take the place ot lie god ol day, lighting up our darkness, nuking bright the streets, cheering do nestle life, giving the artisan an extcu ion of his hours of work, adding im ueasurably lo human convenience ami ilcnsure. We will therefore welcome Edison with nore pleasure than if bis name were row ucd with military glory, or if his row were wreathed will) the Kel's lau cl, for we feel lhai he has reached highc iid gone clcciicr into those mysteries vhich we know connect the human aud iiviue natures, but of which we know .ttlc. MOtit-: V. BEACH, We thought until u few days ago that His creature had gone home, otherwise .vc would have noticed bclore this one ot in letters published some weeks since, A'e find he is still writing. We quote the ollowiug to define his status on tin egro question, and beg to be excused .mm farther reference lo one, who di ounces as a prejudice lite Southern wt night say Northern hostility to social quality with the negro, and leave him . consort with those be chooses lor his quids: "There is, to be sure, an intense preju lice ugainsi recognizing the social equal, ty ol the negro, and against the rcpuhli .an party. This prejudice is common .o I lie .-outlt, it is only natural to excc! rom long time opMineuts of the rcpuhli .'an parlv. There arc too, ticople ol in .luence, who are actually vindictive in .heir piciudices to such un extent that it ids us an obstacle to Ashevillc rather .hail a help. I'eople who are eager lor the growth ol this place are also readv to talk of the past ami present (Hilitical ustorv, iiccoinpnnying their talk with such emphatic cxpiessions of opinion ns to mane northern men wary oi settling inning the exponents ol ann-negroism etc." The assassination olu deputy marshal in (1011811111, Fla., is a crime which will rind no justification or delendvr. If it cre for political cITcvt it is a blunder ns well ns a crime, for it is a direct challenge to a power already anxious tn take of- tencc. As a crime it is no more aggra. vated than many similar crime North is well as South brutal and cowardly arousing the anger of every good man to bring the perpetrator to punishment As a blunder, it proves how dcieiitlent the good name of the South, the pence- fulness of our relutioiis with the govern ment, the harmony of our intercourse with other sections, is at the mercv of irresponsible men who have no stake in the welfare of society, who take no re sponsibility for the mischief they icre- trate, and who recklessly and brutally jeopntdite everything which is the sub ject of the solicitude of every thoughtful allien. The South is a grievous sufferer through such wrong-doers; every such deed is denounced at characteristic of he whole section. It wilt continue to suffer until State authorities take hold of he mutter with strong hand, and deter mine that the pence nnd happiness of the whole people shun not lie at the mercy ol a lew cowardly miscreants. Urallfylnic lo All. The high position attained and the mil vrrsnl acceptance and npprovnl of the pleasant liquid fruit remedy Syrup of rig, ns the most excellent laxative nown, illustrate the value ol the ami tie on which its success is based and arc hsnlutely gratifying to the California Fig S ruu Company.
