We call attention to the advertisement of Salem Academy in this issue. : This old and reliable institution begins its eightieth session Jan. 7th and not only , maintains ; its former reputation but keeps fully abreast of the times. The many friends of I. E. West, for many years Clerk of our Superior Court, will be pleased to learn that he is now special Deputy Collector of Internal Revenue for the northern half of Da kota, embracing a territory , of 75,000 square miles and with headquarters, at Tjrgo.' On the morning of the 2Gth of ; December he writes that the thermome ter was 5 degrees below zero. The weather yesterday was of the coquetish order; the morning was mild and although cloudy was sufficiently Mastering to allure the average citizen out without overcoat or nmbrilla, but as the day wore on the wind became chilly and the falling rain was so cold as to threaten an old-fashioned sleet. The heavy snows ' and cold weather North has given us the go-by, but the out skirts of them reach us in the way , of chilly winds and cold rains.

We know he will give, through the Palladitim, all the advantages and disadvantages we possess as an agricultural and manufac turing community, when he has seen enough of it to form some idea of its capabilities. His attention was called to the immense beds of shell mck along the banks of the river, and the question immediately arose, "Why don't some one engage in making lime?" It is well known that this rock makes as good lime as any that can be found in the country. Then, why bring lime from Maine when there are thousands upon thousands of barrels at our doors on a good navigable stream, only wait ing for some one with capital to manu facture it. '-. Col. Pardee and Senator Poole will leave to-day for OnBlow county. It is well they made this trip up Trent; they have seen the stream that will yet bear to this market a large share of the products of the fertile county which they are going to visit, and if they extend their trip to the Richlands : section, Senator Poole will learn why the Journal has quarreled so much about the Quaker Bridge Road.

The liabilities and assets are about the same thing, being near $6,000. . ; ;. - " j Charlotte Observer: An officer arrived in the city Sunday afternoon with a negro named Ed. Williams, who was captured in McLendon's store at Mat- thewsStation, Saturday night. Williams was safoly committed to jail in this city. The circumstances 'of his arrest are about as follows: Saturday afternoon four suspicious negroes were noticed loafing about the place, and the town constable selected a party of citizens to help him keep watch over the town. During the night they saw a light in McLendon's store, and going up they saw the negro helping himself inside. They walked in on the rash burglar and captured him. The negro had entered the house through a second story win dow, passed through a room in which four young men were sleeping and made his way down stairs into the store. As the men came up they heard Williams' three companions, who had been stationed outside, running away. Williams was carried before a justice, who put him under a bond of $300 for trial by the Inferior Court, and failing to give it, he was sent to jail. The strategy of the constable and citizens of Matthews is to be commended, and somebody ought to give them a good New Year's present. COMMEKCIAL. Journal Office, Jan. 2, 6 P. M.

Compost and Fertilizers. -Maplb Cypress, Jan. 1st, 1884. -"Editor Journal: As the season for buying kainit, acid phosphate, etc., and 1 for making compost generally is now upon us, our farmers will very naturally begin to look around for the best and most economical way of preparing their fertilizers for the approaching crop. I , remember what is known as "Furman's - Formula," published in youf valuable paper last spring, which appeared rather late for any of us to experiment with. I write to ask if you will do me the favor, as well as many of my farming friends, to republish Mr. . Furman's formula again. I would also be glad to hear from some of your agricultural readers upon tho subject of acid phos phate, kainit and cotton seod meal, so as to compare notes upon this great and important question of fertilizers. V Cer tainly aoid phosphate, kainit and cotton seed meal can be manipulated on the farm at a much less cost than the buy ing of the amoniated guanos, and if our farmers can save some of this expense it is worth while to get &4 much informa tion upon this subject now as itispos sible for us ta do. Very respectfully, ' Maple CvrRF-ss Farmer. Colonel on the resources of the county. He will tell the story to tens of thou sands through his paper, many of whom have money to invest, and may perchance bo induced to bring some of it to North Carolina.

As the old year was nodding away his Hooting hours and the pastor of the Baptist Church and wife, themselves, beginning, to partake of hi3 drowsy quietness, lulled by the pattering rain, there was a quick, sharp knock followed by a barrel of flour, some fifty friends and Quite as many bundles.
