We are having a great deal of very j inclement weather this winter, in con sequence of w Inch the farmers through this section aie very much behind in 'preparing for another crop. We have had some right heavy snow recently, which, however. I hope is an indication of a Pel ter or. ip year. hi account of the late short crops, all hi ain iie-s of trade are in a very de pressed condition especially so imont? I merchant. Still, some of that class of traders seem hopeful of better times. Among them are L. L. Hoyt. Esq., who is doing quite a snug business in the grocery line, aud II, W. Gurgauus.

Nothing can be done un less we all join hands in the matter. All are interested, both town and coun try. A flourishing school with a good teacher will help to build up the town and enhance the value of its property, and would give all kind 1 f business a help, A few years ago Mr. C. C. Green started a drug store in Trenton. Several of our leading citizens said that he would certainly move away in two mouths, for he would not sell drugs enough to j. iv his board. How mis taken they v. fit-. Mr. Green lias been doing a splen lid busiues-. and his busi ness is growing. We now have a good drug store, but we need something more badly, a good hard ware store, to furnish the mechanics and farmers tools- von can't find a chisel, auger! adze. pljne. 1 plow. cart. box. nor anything ol tin kind in lha lino of tools, nor a pound of I band or lire iron, nor a pound of steel ! in auy of the stores. Now if we had i some one in Trenton with such articles. the people would purchase them at i home instead of having to send off to : get them. I candidly believe if some I energetic hardware merchant would j open such a house here he would do good and brisk business. Another thing I would like to call the attention of our ! people to. aud that is. why don t our neorile make .and burn their own h viol.- "' ! Why send io other places and buy and ' pay a heavy freight, when ta.v could I 'menoi 01 raiesune, ana at every step be made cheaper at home, and" bv this there is some mine of masonic and his means the n.ouev wou! 1 he kept in the 1 tone interest opening up before me.

C, Feb. 2d, 1884. '.Ik. MUTiiR My attention has been alle I .nt! v -1. d i to the proceedings of 111 the A. SS.C, Kail- ssibiliiies of an exten Beiug somewhat ac ihe region of country h" Yadkin Valley road elleville to Ore Knob in thoiichf I might throw .lid '1U:. ah li A - I 1 the subject of an extensiou . t '. It u!ro al to t'ne Yadkin thi V., li--v 10.nl. suppose the road finished to .ii e K'nab passing through th.e rich val t v of tlie Yadkin river. In that 1 .- :ion rdi the most impoitant elements .1 weatth are seen, corn, wheat, oats, not '.toes ,.j.i' s. in fact nil the fruits th it ar raised in any legion of North Carolina, !lax. tobacco, hay in great abundance: in addition to the fruits of the earth are to be found minerals of immense value, copper, gold, iron, coal etc.. and in the coal fields of Deep river through which the road now passes daily is to be found from eight to ten openings of shafts aud borings for coal of the linesL qualities, mostly bituminous, but in some instances the finest an thacite coal is found. To be accurate I will mention the different places where coal has been found. There is the Egypt mine: at the little town on Deep 1 river by mat name a shaft was sunk I 400 feet and a vein six and a half foot of coal found. The next place is the ! Gulf known as the Haughton plantation, 1 sold for 830.000, a six foot vein found j there from the sinking of what is called j a slope: then the Taylor place, another .-..vw iwui, ,cm 10 icoLiieu uy a siope, men the Parish place, another six foot vein is found also Farmville. Then un the river at Bingham's 450 acres of land a ' J .....:. 101.1 umi I Rt the bottom of it coal six foot thick vi tin iuuuu. lucu aL jruuBneeB ana MurchisorTs slopes have been sunk and ; coal six and a half feet thick at those nlaeps found . So that, for tMrt.o- rvUoa i in this rpcinn nf nioi- t-tttoi- ia f K-n. found immense deposits of coal of the i finest nualities. but. this is nnt. all AM j along the line of the Yadkin Valley road is to be found immense deposits of ' iron ore in near proximities to the coal. I The road already built runs daily I through the finest specimens of iron ore ! found in the South. Ore Hill, fifteen miles from the coal fields, presents a solid mountain of iron ore, and the Yadkin Valley road passes at its base. Just here, too, is the celebrated Mount Vernon Springs, equal in their mineral qualities of water, to the springs of Virginia! Now a question arises, how shall Norfolk, New Berne, Goldsboro, Moiehead City, and Wilmington derive benefits from a connection with this region of country V I answer by saying, take this Yadkin Valley road at San ford. N. C, in a short line of only forty five miles from the Midland road at Smith'leld. and you have all the freights from the rich Yadkin valley pouring into the towns of Goldsboro. New Berne. Wilmington, Morehead City. Norfolk and intermediate places. The road from Smithfteld to Goldsboro has aireuuy proved llieir or importance by its immense transportation of cotton aim iertiuzeis in tne two last seasons, and a continuation of that road through to Sanford will open up a cotton region heretofore unknown. It will pass through an immense forest of pine un boxed and untouched for timber, and some fine cotton lands, and is in a direct line to cross the Cape Fear river at Lillington, the county seat of Harnett, and at that point will concentrate all the agricultural interest of a consid erable portion of Moore and Cumber land counties arid Wake and Johnston to swell the exports on this road to the i , neduuiiui. From Smithfield to Sanford as stated is only about forty-five miles and is a level country with no streams of im portance to cross but the Cape Fear until you reach the Neuse at Stnithfield and a short bridge there puts passengers and freights in immediate connection with the road now running daily to Goldsboro from that place. Some day next week I propose to show the advantages of the project over an3 other. A Looker On. Interesting, Especially to Masons, We were permitted the pleasure, yes terday, of gaziDg upon a cluster of the most beautiful flowers, pressed upon a card, which were plucked upon the Mount of Olives, rendered sacred by ueing so often pressed by the foot-steps of the Saviour. They were gathered by Mr. H. C. Coleman, of Kentucky, (who. we believe, is an Episcopal clergy man j. and were mailed at Jerusalem on the t;0th of December, 1883, and ad dressed to "Mr. H. H. Munsion, Grand Commander of Knights Templar, State of North Carolina." In a letter which accompanied this lovely souvenir of the Holy Land, writ- ten to Mr- Vinson, Mr. Coleman says: "1 have sl,ent considerable time on the Islan Js of Rhodes and Cypress, ap well the Syrian coast, including Sidow, T3're Acre Jappa. etc., and also in the ana uamiration. in the presence ot tne fortifications of the Knights, and copied from (he marble tablets in the walls the 8hK.,j aod heraldic emblems of the dif- ent Grand Masters who presided over the destinies of those valiant and mag nanimous Knights who held the place for -13 years. There are plenty of the marble and stone cannon balls which the Turks used in attacking the place still to he seen. I tried to get one to bring home, but the soldiers prevented ma: as they stopped me live times while copying the inscriptions and devices upon tic tablets in the fortifications. At Acre we also see these stone cannon balls lying upon the plain. They are too heavy to be carried away. But of these things, as well as many others. I may be able to tell you hereafter. The souvenir will no doubt be care fully treasured by llr. Munson as one of extraordinary interest and value, serv ing to remind him of the "Ascension Scene" and all the events po intimately associated with the last days of the Sa viour on earth. M'il.
