Morgan ton, N, C, 'sengers, wer rut via Greenville, hibit of the new Welsback burn North Carolina's Splendid Kxhlblt at Atlanta Exposition. Charlotte Democrat. This exhibit in the Mineral and Forestry Building, at the Exposi tion, Atlanta, planned by Prof. Holmes, under whose charge the State Geological Survey has ac complished such excellent work, and is a practical one throughout. ' The following data concerning this collection has been furnished through the courtesy of Professor Holmes at.d gives an excellent idea not only of the exhibit itself, but also of the parts of the State in which the various minerals are found. In corundum, of which more is mined in North Carolina than in any other State, the samples rep resent the famous deposits at Co rundum Hill, in Macon county, Buck Creek and Shooting Creek in Clay county, and a number of other localities. The chrysolite and rock in which these corundum deposits occur, and the most com mon associated minerals, are also exhibited from Corundum Hill. These specimens are supplemented by a series of samples of ground corundum, and emery prepared from the Sapphire corundum mines. " Among the iron-ore deposites represented in the collection are the magnetites at Cranberry, the red and brown hematites at Besse mer City (Ormond and Little Mountain ore beds), brown hema tites at Ore Hill (near Greens boro) and Cherokee county, and the large but undeveloped magne tite deposites in Ashe county. North Carolina has not hereto fore attracted any attention as a' coal producing State, but the Cummock mines, formerly the old Egypt mines, are now shipping more than 100 tons per day. In this North Carolina exhibit there is a section showing the structure of the coal formation there. The monazite exhibit is excep tionally complete and illustrates the educational value of this kind of exposition work. Amaponthe wall shows where the monazite occurs in North Carolina. ; Near by is a long box containing a sec tion down through the gravel four feet thick in which the monazite is found in the valleys and along the small branches, overlaid by four feet of loam soil from the Latimore mine. Near this is a large glass jar of the bill-side and red loam in which monazite of the best quality is being mined at the Phiefer mine, also near Shelby in Cleveland county. Standing by these sections of soil is a sluice box in which the monazite sarrd is washed and concentrated by a stream of water that is constantly passing through it. On the top of the mineral cases, in the centre of the exhibition, is a row of jars containing the different grades of soil in- which the monazite sand has been- found,- the different grades of monazite sand and the tailings which result from the washing and concentrate of the monazite. In a window directly above the exhibit are two large glass transparences, one of which shows the method of mining and washing monazite sand in the low lands, where it is mixed with the gravel, and the other, similar oper ations on the hill-side, where the monazite sand is scattered through the red loamy soil for several feet below the surface, and even scattered through the under lying rock. Nearby is a fine ex- the Charleston and Florida phos phates that but little attention has been given to these deposits in other states. Phosphate has been found In a number of places in Eastern North Carolina, and in one point. Castle Hayne, it is be ing worked constantly on a com mercial scale, and the crude ma terial is being shipped to Wilmington,- Charlotte, Balimore and other places. It occurs mainly as a fine gravel from one to four feet in thickness and at a depth of from three to eight feet below the surface. It is overlain by sand underlain by shell limestone. The pebbles usually vary from less than a Quarter of an inch to an inch in diameter. In the North Carolina exhibit is a section show ing the character ef this formation from the surface soil down to the base of the phosphate g.-avel, 'and near this is exhibited in addition to the crude ground phosphate rock, a number of samples of the manufactured acid phosphate and other commercial fertilizers, ex hibited by the Navassa Guano Company, and the Powers & Gibbs Company, of Wilmington, and the Charlotte Oil & Fertilizer Company of Charlotte. Adjoining this also is an exhibit of pyrites from Gavu-n county, North Caro lina, showing ihe crude material in large blocks, weighing several hundred pounds each, and the pulverized pyrites and sulphuric acid manufactured from it by the Charlotte Oil & Fertilizer Com pany. In a window above this ex hibit is also a large glass trans parency, illustrating the methods of phosphate mining at Castle Haynes. The more important gold, silver and copper mines are represented by specimens a few of which weigh nearly 1,000 pounds each, though the majority are much smaller. There is one splendid block of auriferous pyrite from the Rudisil mine. Mecklenburg county, which weighs about 800 pounds and has an assay value of $160 per ton. Another fine block of ore from the Conrad Hill mines, which may be considered as both of copper and gold ore, is of nearly the same weight. Pernaps the most attractive fea tures about the gold exhibit are the two gilded casts of the nug gets found during the summer at the Crawford mine in Stanley county. One of these contained eight and the other ten pounds cf gold. The mica exhibit shows the clear cut and uncut mica of vari ous sizes, and also ground mica, prepared from what was formerly the scrap of waste about all the mines. The kaolin sample represents only a half dozen or more import ant deposits in the Stale, mainly in Jackson county. The most im portant of these is that near Web ster, which is being operated by the Harris Clay Company, and from which kaolin is being snipped to a number of factories at lren ton. New Jersey, and other places. There are samples of both crude and the washed kaolin from this mine in the collection. There is here exhibited also a cse which contains a lot of beau tiful Belleek pottery-ware from this Jackson county kaolin bv the Ceramic Art Company, of. Tren ton, New Jersey. In the case with this pottery are placed samples of fine white kaolin from Jackson county, fieldspar from Mitchell county and pure white sand from Wayne county. The building stone collection is probably the most impressive part of the North Carolina mineral ex hibit. It contains blocks of pol ished granite from some two dozen different quarries showing a great variety of colors from the white Mount Airy granite to the "black granite " (or norite) from Anson county, on the Carolina Central Railroad. These granites represent every variety of texture, from the fine-grained, compact material like the . monumental ' - ' T til granite of Mooresviue, - ireaeu county, to the course porphyritic Scotch red granite found -on the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad in Wilson county, and on the Caro lina Central Railroad in Anson county. There is also a handsome cottage monument cut out of the Iredell granite from - Mooresville by the Charlotte Granite. Com pany, which shows how this stone is adapted for monumental pur poses ; an excellent exhibit of Bel gian block and curb-stone "from Kirk Mountain granite quarries in Rowan county, which shows the excellent working qualities of this tough, durable granite, and a beautiful shaft of nearly white Mount Airy granite, which at a little distance resembles marble. ing and attractive feature of this exhibit- are the large blocks of black granite or norite, which is really an eruptive igneous rock, and is found in considerable quan tities on the Carolina Central Rail road in Anson county near where therailroat crosses the Pee Dee river. The collection contains also several blocks of marble of black, pink and nearly white color from Swain and Cherokee counties ; of a beautiful, fine' grain, black ser pen Joe, from near Patterson, in Caldwell county,and a mottled serpentine from Wake county. The North Carolina mineral wa ter exhibit is another one ot the attractive features in this building. They are brought together here in half gallon packages from nearly all of the more prominent mineral springs in the State. Showing the practical uses of stone material in important way, there are placed on the west side of the North Carolina exhibit a number of photographs and one large transparency in the window. illustrating the macadam or stone roads which are now being con structed in Mecklenburg and a number of other counties in the State. The specimens are all carefully labelled; so that a stranger in passing through the exhioit may get an intelligent idea of the State's resources so far as they are represented in this exhibit with out having anyone on hand to ex plain the situation to him.

For this purpose fir wood is employed, this being submitted to a series of mechan ical and chemical operations, and the threads are drawn out, afterward being rolled on bobbins. The material when manufactured resembles ordinary cot ton, though having a slight defect, which can be easily corrected that is. it is a little less solid tbsn natural cot ton. On the other hand, however, the new substance is worked ani woven easily.

What lend probability to the contention that there ia at lean a traditional understanding between tbe Russian Foreign Office and our State Department is the fact that it would be highly advant ageous to Ross I a to pat oa under obligation at a pi neb. For tbe United State is the only great lower on earth at whose bauds tbe Czar's Government coold look for sincere co-operation were it pot to choice or allies Tor any aggressive venture. Each European country mast and does view the knitting to gether of tbe great frame and tbe vitalizing of tbe extremities of the Colossus of the North with dread.

And ma'uifelle carries a knife in her girdle teady to be loosed at need, a her big Muscovite pro tector knows. France has no more desire that tbe "Unas should ever have Constantinople" than England.

The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least OSLY AN ARMED TRUCE. We may examine here tbe ex traordinary circumstances which mnst forever prevent while the British empire retsios its vitality, any relations other tbau those of armed truce between that empire and that or tbe Czar. That it will rtta'n that vitality for a long time is evidenced by tbe tremend ous fecundity of tbe English race, now surpassing io tbe iopalatioo of the three islands that or all France; now nearly equaling that of Germany. Three barbaric States stand between Kussia and a commercial and military empire undreamed of before in the Old World. These are Tarkey in the west. Afghanistan in tbe center, Manchuria in tbe east. Their boundaries once erased and Ro&sia would have ports upon three som summer seas tbe Mediterranean, tbe Arabian and the Pacific By its tireless policy, unvexed, on broken by domestic party strife, this empire, which was little more than a clearing in a barbarrio wild in Queen Anne's day, has worked its way to these slim barries which stand between it and limitless power. And to each of these bar riers England sets its back and strains. With no other warrant than that of the balance of power she for bids that one step of progress which crowns and fertilizes all previous labors, and without which all previous labors are barren.
