To the i'itoniiiVtio;i ;ims eonvt-s ed. the peiiod from 1S5J to 1-iS.i, ,t lie-riud of oer thirty years, ha madeli'tle or no addition. Plot. Shepard, indeed, in his report upon the phosphate heds of South Caio lina made in 1-U. alter ,-keteh-ini; the seed ion embraeiii'.' the terri tory of active operation, says: The territory thus de.-cribed, y no means contains the entire forma tion which certainly extends into North Carolina.' The iiilormat ion thus ;itl'orded has not. as lar is known, been ever acted on. There has been no exploration of that region ot the State up !o the boun daries of which these phosphate beds were traced in South Caro lina. It has been known for many years that coprolites were found in and about Lake Waccamaw; but there as elsewhere, in this State, they were regarded as accidental anil fortuitous. No hope has been encouraged, no hint afforded up to last year, of any probability or pos sibility that they would be found here in workable beds. 'With the small appropriation made by the Board at its meeting in May last, and tho employment of a minimum of his time by our State Chemist, t lie hope expressed by Dr. Emmons in 1852 was realiz ed in 188.5. Expensive deposits were found underlying a wide ter ritory. They were traced through an area of country ten miles in width and twenty-five miles in length. In general features these beils bear a striking resemblance to those of South Carolina. Like them, they are found at a varying distance below the surface, gener ally but a few fief. Like them they vary widely in quality: some being rich in phosphate of lime, some comparatively poor. Like them. too. the bed- .try in thick ness: some being but a tew inches, some from four t five feet in thick lu-ss. In -outli c i ilina they are found not only beneath '"he surface of the land, but at the bottom of rivers, sea marsh -'S and .-hallow !i.i-. They are theie most protii .il'lv worked, becau.-e at least cost. T,,i t'ac; tll.it these phosph.lte h.rv b"en traced to Angola Lay. and base been long known to e 1 -' in Waccam iw lake, eiieotira-;.

'Tlobert Jeffrey." he .-aid he was, and by trade a black smith. And at last he was able to work at the forge, and proved a strong, big fellow, with arms like a Hercules; and he told us his story . "He had been a blacksmith, as he said, but lie was fond of the sea, and he shipped as one of the crew of a pri vateersman. and was mak ing money, on a vessel called the Lord AV -()( an English ship when she was boarded by a press gang and carried on board a man-of-war called the Ricniit. The captain of this ship was a very hot tempered fellow, who raved and swore at his crew when they dis pleased him, and he kept himself well supplied with drink. One day the new recruit. Eobert Jeffrey, was sent into the captain's cabin to do some work there, and saw in the corner a barrel of beer. lie was thirsty, and it w as tempting, and he helped himself. No one discover ing the fact, he tell into the habit of taking the beer whenever he had a chance, and one day the captain caught him at it. He sv.oie and raved and refused forgiveness, and put Eobert Jeffrey in iron-, and that afternoon, a- they ncared tlia: black little island called the Som brero called to his lieutenant: Lieutenant, come here." - Yes sir. said t he officer. -Send tor ! ha, fellow 1 p:;; in irons today and row him loth.ii rock and leave him thele vouhe.'l uu '.

A week since a Baltimore beauty so da.:ed a workman that iu litiing his cap and stepping back to let her pass he fell over, and in the hammock, 10') feet above the terra tii ma. continued his adm iring gaze with his cap still in hand. The su pci intc-ndent says that in live years, the most serious accident has not been more than a mashed linger among his mason- and laborers. The height now to go is 1 15 feet. The ba.-e of the upper platform will commence when ."H'O feet is reached. This w ill be as high as the visitor can go. The interior of the monu ment is go feet square, which con tinues to a height of 1 oh feet. Its dimensions are then increased to 31 i ."i-li.' feet by the width of the walls being reduced ; from that point to the top the inner walls are perpen-. dicuiar. The outer face of the walls , has ;i batter or slope of one-fourth inch to the loot until they will reach ' .".oo leet. As before said, the ascent is made by an elevator, one of the Otis patent. It has a carrying strength of 75 tons, and the wire cables would break only at a test of 150 tons. Even with a break the sale-' guards are, such as would prevent a fall of over ten inches. Yet the su-: pel intendent says he has frequently had to stop, return and put men off. w here fears were such as to compel relief. He added he never knew a lady to be unnerved in that direc tion.

Much damage was done in London, and many persons were injured. The glass roof of the Westminster Aquarium was demolished, causing a panic aim ng the audience, in which several persons were hurt. A printing office in the Haymarket w as unroa.'ed. and a boy wa." killed by failing debris. Many vessels were wrecked oil' the coast, ami a large number of lives were lost. Telegraph wins to the Continent and the Atlantic cables were inter rupted for several hours. liepor's from -a'd parts of the kingdom agree that the gale of Saturday was one of almost uu paralleled severity. At Hastings the theatre and pier had to he closed, t he electric lights along flic parade were quenched, and the seas dashed over the streets, making i walking dangerous. At Monmouth the Wye and Monnow rivers over flowed their banks, and the high ways were ilooded. Southampton and East bom lie suffered severely. l'ailway trafiic has been greatly impeded. There has been a heavy snow storm throughout the country. At Torquay there were many cas ualties. A mail car was overturned by the violence of the wind. Gas lamps were blown down and trees uprooted. Many boats were swamped, llie SSiops on the Isle ol i u i;v:i weie eioseueaiiv on oiuur- djy, owing to the hurricane. A lady was knocked down by the wind and had a leg broken. At Newrj many houses were unroofed. The police barracks were reiuleied un tenantable, and the police were compelled to take refuge in the court house.

Tlui thing that af-tonished me mere than any oilier was the evident i-idubrity oi the climate.

" hen needed with but a single handl- j '"S- The economy which nature has i thus made possible must couDt for con- siderabie when several hundred- acres are to be fertilized. Near someof the creeks in Onslow are considerable de posits of coprolites. n nd beds of phos phate rock, and all the way from Rich lauds to Alum Spiinjrs limestone abounds. The waifs and coiling in tho house of Mr. Edward Murrell, at Gum Branch, were of lime, which he burned, using stone found on his own property. Yet .only a few miles beyond I met a two-mule team hauling half a dozen barrels of northern lime from Trenton, when it would have been much cheaper to have made it at home from native rock. The pocoein of the White Oak swamp, as seen from the west side, destroyed some of the opinions formed while ex amining it on the east. George ash ington Smith was my guide aud com the swanip. When well toward ihe centre I found myself surrounded by a great savannah comprising from 15 to 20 thousand acres, treeless except lor a few scrub pines. A deep ditch on cither side of the road was half fub of swiftly running water. Wheji within a mile of where the work was stopped we found the water was flowing in tho opposite direction, showing that we hud passed the highest point. A subse quent examination showed that the pocosin was not shaped like a sauci r r" i centre was iroiii twelve lo lifteen feel i higher than the rim. The t-urface soil ! i8 a peaty muck, the su!) soil a vieid i blue or grey clay. I had expected to find blue or grey clay. I had expected t marl and perhaps phosphate roek th i e.. aal . . a ,i.ai. i. ...... but did not, and now think that ivn.it ever there may bo ut the level of Cow horn citek, neither of the fertilizers will ever be dug from the fc cm of lie pocosin. for il fouud there n; nil, it w ill be at a depth that will make them j Tac tically valueless. I realized -,,!si. a- I had not fully done before, the very ' heavy cost that would be entailed upon whatever enterprising man or nun 1 should eventually purchase this gi (sat body uf land from the State, before the first dollar of profits could he derived from it. Whoever buys it. without the1 ability to invest, at the least. $150,000 in its improvement, will Le as badlv' off as ' the chap that bought an elephant. 1 doubt wnether any one man would be induced to handle it. and think the State will be compelled either to survey and dispose of it in small tracts, or else that it must find a company with vim and money enough to put it through. It is a long." irregular belt of timber of varying values, inclosing a vas-t and , almost treeless savannah. Before the timber can tie utilized, except at a few , extra favorable points, large sums must be expended in carrying canals to lhe tributaries of the Trent. New and White i )ak rivers, and they in turn must he j cleared of the obstructions that make even rafting impossible. This will pie pare the way for subsidiary ditching and drainage, and then the whole, if wis ly managed . can be made extremely pre mie.
