According to the earliest records the first prcce of gold found iii North Car olina waspicked up in 1709. in a little uiiiucu on, uie noiu pianranon, vjauar- rus countv. It weighed between three and four; pounds, and was kept several years without its'" real character bciri" suspected; subsequently it was sold to a jeweler in Fayetteville for $3.50. When its true'ebaracter became known search was niadu for more, and iour teen. lumps, weihinp; in the aggrexatti lo3 lls. tro, were obtained at' the s.unt locality. The gold' 5 veins and gravel deposits w-ere afterwards aiscovered; and for a considerable time gold opera tions were conducted in many localities on a comparative! v larire scalo. The di.scovervfof rbld in 'California. i yhere fr rieherShnrv-fct was promised. led to the abandonment of lhanv ol those enterprises: other causes have ab so inlluehced in the same direction, as for exaniplr, tub'-: difficulties' connected jTbUel' Kae.
