A110E AN OLD CITIZEN-
Tli oliettiers of Cherokee coun-

will bP.)aed to hear of tho deqfh
of Ler
,ttle, who resided in Xot-
la tovjis
ning J
born i4
at his home on the mor
27th. Mr. Little was
sJies county, but at an
arly
hd.to Union coiiiity,
TT-W ttefIb-l f or a number ' of
years, Mhere he enjoyed the friemT
ship and confidence of all who knew
hirn. About 15 vpars ho-o ho noma
to Cherokee county, and has been
living in Xotla township ever since.
Here, by his industry and labor, he
was, at the time of his demise, the
possessor of one of the most valuable
farms in the cou, ty. The interment
took place on Tuesday of last week,
and as he had often requested he
was" buried at Ivy Log cemetery bv
the side of several of his children
who had gone before him. The fu
neral cortege was followed by nam- '
tiuua HH.-HUS auij a nost oi sorrow
ing relatives, who have the sympathy
aiHl condemfifricf tlie whole commu
nity. He leaves an aged wife and a
large number of children and grand
children, many of whom were too far
away to attend the funeral, but who
will hear the sad news with much
sorrow. Several of his boys living
in Missouri came to visit him thb
past winter and it will be some ctfrti
fort to them to know that they saw
him once before that grim' monster,
death, came along. He' had arrived
at the age of 82 years; but old as he
was, his death was very unexpected
and sudden, as he had told one of his
boys shortly before he died that' he
might go on to the field he felt all
right, and in lees than two hours he
had passed waj kifM-
consistent meinbef-ot thecjhureli and
long befor'e his death he asserted that
"all was well" he had made peace
with his master.
From his pure lips the, pleasant smile,
By death could not be driven;
Ad with the hope of future bliss;p
He passed from here to heaven.
lie fought a rood firht, a crown he won
And, we know that God had blessed.
lie gained a promise of Happiness;
And his soul passedninlo rest.
Heaven retaincth his good wife's treasure
The sod only tlie coffin keeps.
And many the dear ones who will linger
Where their loving father sleeps.

PRECIOUS STONES OF NORTH

The Great Variet' of Mineral Wealtli
of North Carolina The ." Sections

Most Likely to be Found.
From the Chattanooga Tradesman:
In the variety of its mineral wealth
the state of Xorth Carolina surpass
es any other of the Southern States,
while not having the vast area or ex-
P 1
cellent coal of the states of Tenne
soe, Kentucky ;jr Alabama, she has
an area of mineral fuel which could

and certainly, a-greater quantity and
better qyaltjien any of them, if
not surpassing! all three in the ag-J
gregate quAhtrcy of iron ore within
her borders. VAt the same time she
has a vast area' of primitive rocks
wherein is contained a variety and
6pecks otnaneral wealth possessed
by neither of the two first States and

Thousands of chemists of greater or j
less note and knowledge have tried j
to make diamonds by artificial means
but no one has yet j successfully imi
tated what nature has done in her
vast and secret laboratory. The
best imitation stone is a parisiaa pro
duction made of .silica and oxide of
lead. Some of thl'se are made so
perfectly that none" but a well prac-
ticed eve, can detect them. The com-
mon quartz crystals cabled Lake
George, California and other named
7 i .
diamonds do not deserve the name of
imitations, though-some of them are
very beautiful and brilliant
At present the gre
ducing resdon is Sor
what are called the
that eoiintrv,
stone was only discovered in 18C7,
is known to have been obtained dia
monds which, when cut, were valued
at $450,000,000," and there is no
doubt that many were obtained of
which no record is kept. A late
writer on these mines states that the
natives would bj-ing. chickens to the
mines and make them swallow small
diamonds, afterwards killing them
and getting the' diamonds, and that a
kafiir swallowed a 00 karat stone
which killed him.
It has generally been assumed'
from the neighboring formations in
Irazil and. Indm, that the singular
rock, itaeolumnite, commonly called
flexible sandstone, bore some re'tiori
to the diamond but it is not at all
found in the south African mines,;
and whatever the future may devel
op, the diamonds so far .found in
North Carolina and Georgia have
not borne any specific relation to it.
The diamonds of the Kimberly mines:
South Africa, are found in a decom
posed carbonaceous shale which con
tains in its harcl state some mica and
imbedded garnets. The theory of
their formation is that some internal
volcanic action, acting upwards, dis
integrated the -caroonaceoous mass
and setting free the carbon and me
chanically combined water, also
caused the sapid to' crystalizel 'Xnto
iarwd trtwiY There an : im-'
niense "belt of such carbohaceo, mi
caceous shale, carrying imbedded
garnets, which passes through Wes
tern North .Carolina and the Northern-
part of Middle Georgia. Wheth-;
er this shale is cut through at any
point by volcanic strata and suffi
ciently disintegrated to admit of, the
formation of diamonds from it, is :
not known."; That such in possible
there can be jo doubt, as the geology
and mineralogy of that region is
very little kntiwn; only within a few
years accessible byr any hut the
roughest roads, the scientist shrank
from piercing its rough wilds and en-
dnrinff the hardships -thereto, lhe
geilogy of Xorth Carolina records
the finding of I light diamonds within
thd
limits of jtjiat State, but I know
at least one more that was found,
Oi
was found bv laborers on the Wii-
mington, Charlotte & Rutherford
railroad in a sgravel cut in Lincoln
county, and gjven by the contractor
to Hon. Haywood Giuon, then presi
dent of the rpad. He had it set in
the rough and wore it for many years.
There is every, possibility of finding
many more in the gravel kden val
leys on the east of the Blue Ridge.
Four of thesl recorded as found in
the State w?re from this region.
Mr. J. D. Caldron, of Atlanta, a gen
tleman whospent fourteen, years in
the diamond fields of South Africa,
found one lately in Georgia, and he
h i iil- that the gwn in dicatedl
should also afforilfmany more", but;
thinks the Cherokee and Clay coun4
ty regions off north Carolina, and of
Town's and 'Union, , Georgia, , bear
more resemblance to the South Afri
can fields. .There is a peculiar blue
claylike earth" through those coun
ties,. evidehty the product of the
disirttegratioi of a carburicious slate
or shale which he says resembles
much tbe'plue earth" which caps
the great diamond; beds at Kimberlyj
and the strata there like that in the
South Africa region is pitched at a
steep angle. -With a region entirely
unexplored and its mineral wealth
practically unknown, who can say
that there may not be found by the
diligent searlher, diamonds as well
as is being 'daily found other and
hitherto unnown mineral wealth,
as was a few-, years ago found " mica
and corundim.
Xearlj all others of the precious
stones of commerce or of rarer min
erals which fire prized by getters up
of cabinets, re silicates of alumna

of those minWals combined with sil-
liric aciAcommoaly caUbd silica the

tints made by one or another of
new
oxides of one of another of the. met
als. And the cange of them is very
large, though they may be narrowed
down to rubies, emeralds, amethybt,
topaz, opals and garnets. The; open
ing of the corundum and mica mines
brought to light many of these hid
den treasures and the largest ruby in
the world was found at Jerks coran-
dnm mine, 1 racor county. A rau
but handsome , ruby from the sanie;lor
cality carae into my possession and is
nbw woi?i in a' ring by a young lady
of Nashville, Tenri. Some beautiful
Si2tcs have also been found and near
Springs is a body of jaa-
some careful
t.i"
buttons
the
wlfr s.-i, ?n the' Wi
iddle
part ot tfcel ' nindsome
specimenC tf nalachite have been
found. In many parts of the 'State
are found the handsomest of quartz
crystals, some containing water and
moss. " In Harnett county in the srra
vel of the sand hills has been found
many- specimens of a transparent
quartz, without crystallization, which,
when cut, makes a very brilliant and
attractive stone.
As I have stated, however, the
great region possible for the finding
of gems is the semi-plateau country
lying between the Blue Ridge and
the Unaka mountains, and just east
of the Blue Ridge. In this former
region are the mines of corundum
already found and opened and in it
aje more j et to be found. Many lo
calities are known even more prom
ising than those already worked, and
more no doubt will be found. Cor
undum is an article in itself" of no
small value and in great demand,
while its finer grade when of brilliant
red tint is the gem ruby. It is im
passible for anyone to accurately es
timate the future possibilities: of this
region. Mr. Edison's endeavors to
find pb.timim for electric lights caus
ed the beautiful new gem of the
richest green color called luddenite
after it .discovery and thus have in
thf past W W-myHHi
minc-als, and .a wiir-6thera.be found
in the future. In the cabinet: of the
board of Trade at Asheville are
found many beautiful specimens of
beryls, ultramanies and other stones
of not large commercial value but . cf
great beauty and 'brilliancy. Tlie
visitor to that beautiful city of the
mountains should not fail to go to
see this cabinet, which has been gath
ered together through the energy and
liberality of some of its citizens.
