C, January 20. The Mecklenburg Iron Works, of Charlotte, X. C, will this week legiu work on a complete custom plant, for milling and treating gold ores, both free-milling and refractory or sulphur etted, which will aid largely in the fu ture development of Southern gold mines. The plant will be located adjacent to its manufacturing works at Char lotte, and will be arranged for tests of ore in bulk and of concentrates in as small as 100 pound lots, and as the conditions for treating ores, etc.. will be Very favorable, the charges will be moderate, and the results conclusive. The idant will consist of milling, concentrating and ehlorination depart ments, and the machinery will be as follows, all built at the shops of the Mecklenburg Iron Works: One 4x10 inch Blake typo ore breaker; one im proved 'ClHilleuge1 ore-feeder; one 4)0 pound tive stamp battery, equip ped with the special features of this company's make; four amalgamating plates, silvered; one improved "Tri umpir' eon cent rat or; one reverbatory roast'i; furnace; di; chlorinating bar re!, and "iiccL'Ssary llteiv, ianks, prccip ite.thm vat?, etc., for the Tides method; one IK teen horse-po wer M. I. W." en gine, and ali shattiag, pulleys, belting, elevators," ears, etc.; full assaying, ap paratus, with bullion furnace and molds, sampling apparatus, etc. Six t.;us per ten hours will bo the full ca pacity of the- plant on average ores. T'ie arrangement is especial lyVadap tcd for test runs and through "clean ups" after each test; and every eifori will be made to secure actual working results sucdi as can be realized at a mine under e er -day conditions. This will be the chier aim, but complete assays and laboratory experiments will form a goodly-portion of the work. Mr. John Wilkes wii'.give the; plant his personal super visiou, aud the tests w ill be. r vde by a thoroughly eoaipe- tent expert, who has had large exper ience with stamp mills and free-milling ores, and with the Thies ehlorination process aud sulphurets. Negotiations are pending between the Mecklenburg' Iron Works and the Cotton States Exposition of Atlanta, Gii., which" will doubtless result in a similar plant being erected on tha ex position grounds. Mine-owners of Georgia and adjacent States are now being visited with the view of securing guarantees of sufficient ore to kev?p the plant in operation during the exposi tion. This Charlotte plant will le of great .benefit to the mining industy of the South. , NEW YORK' STOCK MARKET. Niivr Ycric, February IG, The stock market for the week has been controlled by events at Washing ton, and as Congress is not disposed to do anything, we have had an irreg ular, a halting, and as the week closes, a weaker market for the majority of railroad securities. Trading for the week has been mainly professional,', and most of the selling has been for short account. At the same time there is no question but that the Northwest statement was disappointing, and th it it created a temporary bearish senti ment upon the. Grangers. In the coal stock'; until yesterday there hu been little doing for the week, "out the ac tivity yesterday, has, as we anticipat ed, resulted in lo.wer prices. In low prieedtocks changes have not been of importance, while in the-Iudustrials, Sugar has been active r.nd higher. As we view. the situation condition's luv ing an influence upon 'go:.d stock val ues v.'iii iiiipro e . Th? ;reer Con gress expires "'liareh -iti;. and lin.;e.c iai inteie.-b? re likely m rake hold -i the market in the reasonable expectation that the new Congress will be better than the old. Present prices for good values are n:. doubt tdy cheap, and with gold : a ports stopped, seniimvnt both a. home and abrov-'d is likely to be bullish on AmVrictn secunties at present prices.

I It is stated that Winston Salem has j forty citizens that will be caught by the income tax. The dry goods firm of Rose & Leak, ot Fayette ville, has assigned. Liabili ties $50,000 to $73,000. It was the sec ond largest house in the aforesaid city. The class .at Salem Female College of j 1894 has placed in the college building a window in honor of North Carolina's peerless Senator, Zebulon 13. Vance, deceased. . Mr. Otho Wilson, it is now definitely understood, will not get the Railroad Commissionersiiip. He wanted to serve his country but the Republicans said nay. Tha County Commissioners of Bun combe county have suspended Super intendent W. II. White, charged with inhumanity to a convict gang. His successor is J. T. Hostic. The New Berx;e fair is now in full blast with a liattering attendance, consider ing the weather, good exhibits and the manifestation of great interest by those in attendance. The fair closes to-morrow. State Treasurer Yv orth has appoint ed E. Stanley Walton, a Republican, Deputy State Treasurer at Morganton, to do all the paying for the State Hos pital, lie succeeds Mr. J. G. Dickson, a Democrat. The Republicans and Populists lock ed horns at the State capital the 14th inst. on (he G per cent, interest .bill. The Caucasian was shelled all along the line and caucus aciets given to a gaping world. Last week Messrs. C. A. Snow & Co., Washington City Patent Attorneys, secured the following patents for North Carolinians: J. W. Fries, Sa lem, machine for treating tobacco leaves; J. H. Kester, Winston; Machine for casing and flavoring tobacco. It now looks as if Otho Wilson will loose the Railroad Commissionersiiip. It will be given to some Republican patriot. Senator' Uutler championed the cause of Otho, but the persimmon was 100 high lor h;s stature and. the watch too persistent tor the utiliza tion of successful bushwhacking tac tics. Mr. J. F. Mosteller, of Charlotte, killed a cow on Saturday, which he had purchased' the day before, and found a Gth of 21 ay medal" in her stomach. On the medal was inscribed Firemen's Contest, Ma.: 20th, 1S'.2, Charlotte, N. C. The medal was some what bent bur the inscription was very distinct. That was a good pre mium cow. TiVd OTHEli 5fDE.

We submitted tho .question to the President and Hoard of Directors of the Hickory Library Association last Monday afternoon by previous arrange ment and tiie ofi'er and jdan was duly and unanimously adopted. The whole plan is simply this: The Press and Carouxian issue cf ilaich 21st will be turned over entire ly to the Editorial and Reportorial aud Business Management of the ladies of the Hickory Library Associa tion, and whatever they make out of it, outside of our regular foreign ad vertising and iocal standing advertis ing, that is to say every thing above the then existing contracts shall be that of and be paid over to the Hick ory Library Association. This means also, th;it alii cash (or its equivalent) subscription for this paier eeeured by the ladies lor the PlU- AM) CAlto JLIJNIA:; then, or between now and men, shall be prorated to the benelit of the Library.

EH? j THE NATIONAL BANKS WILL HAVE X PIC j NIC I vur nc,J "ora 1 vtma xiumtm in tn ! Middle of th .$mlm. a ne orui Carolina legislature now in session at Raleigh, composed of a majority of what is denominated as Populists, or All'ancemen. and Repub licans all under the general lied of Fusionists have passed ari act to make the legal rate of interest in the State atC ier ceut per annum. This is playing right square iuto the hands and cutlers of the National Banks. It dees not apply to them. It only ap plies to individuals and to State Hanks. Some French gentleman of a Populis tic iersuasiou ougkt to go out in the woods and try to borrow pome money at this juncture and season. He would get it, where we got it and all the rest of the unsophisticated will get it. Here are the court decisions .in regard to the applicability ol State laws to tho United States National Ranks. Put one or two of them in jour pqn? .ir,d take a good sncozcr smoke. The Supreme Court of the United States, in the case of the Farmers and Mechanics Hank vs. Deary (01 U. S., Zi) have divided that the Usury laws of the States do not apply to National Banking Associations. The Supremo Cout of Ohio, in the cafe of the First National Bank of Col umbus vs. Garlinghouse, (22 Ohio, 492); and tlie Supreme Court of Massachu setts, in the case of the Central Na tional Bank vs. Pratt, (115 Mass. Rep.) have held "that the laws imposing (other than thoe provided by act of Congress) for taking usury do not ap ply to National Banks.' In our own State, in the case of "The Mechanics' and Farmers National Bank of Charlotte vs. Myers' (74,514,) it was held that ''Natioual Banks are subject onlv to the penalties prescrib ed by the C S. Banking Act for tak ing usury, and that the power of cre a( in;r such banks being vested iri Coj g:es, is inconsistent with a power in any State or Territory to allix enal ties on the bank for taking unlawful interest. t : There appears in this paper this morning an advertisement of the new ly chartered Southern Stock Mutual Insurance Company, of Greensboro, and attention is invited to its plan and to the list of its ofllcers aud direc tors. Fabulous sums go out of North Carolina yearly for insurance and for other purposes money which should be kept at home; but this statement would not be worth a moment's con sideration by a business man in con templating the claims of a local insur ance company unless some such state ments as these could be made about it.

It is a dangtvms thinir for an individual or a ncwi.p.iper to give advice to the public about n atters in which money is in voled: but the Ober er. without the s!ihte.--t reservation, gives its endorse ment to the Southern Stock Mutual Insurance Company.
