10 Has Erceflency Ddpfd y. Reid;
SIR: In my last communication my
remarks were confined mostly to the
character Of the better lands and soils Of
Mccklenburg and Rowan. These lands
are probably the best in the State of
their capacities as whole. or if their
producing powers in the aggregate are
considered. This view / intended TO
express, notwithstanding the fact that
10 dry seasons they suffer more than
others which are much less fertile.
But these lands have not been fully
tested, though they have been cultivat,
ed for more than half century, per-
haps more than a century. They
must have been highly productive when
they were first TILED. But il appears
tome thatgreat productiveness does not
belong to the6rst series ofyears after
tillage begins. II is true that when
new lands are cleared Of the forest
that the first crops require no fertili-
zers. The growth is almost spontane.
ous. The planter sows and his harvest
is sure. But when exuberance Of fer.
tilizing matter is nearly exhausted and
the soil begins to flag, it should by no
means be regarded as used up, that il
must be abandoned, and that new
fields must be cleared. Instead Of re.
garding the soil as having passed its
best and most productive period, it
should be considered as only subdusd
and ready for the true system Of cul-
tivation. The soils Of England, which
have been cultivated eighteen hundred
years, produce more by the present
system of husbandry than they could
have produced during their first years
of tillage. Parts Of New England and
New York yield a greater profit than
they did at their first settlement, mean
that they will yield greater number
of bushels of wheat and corn than when
they we're in their virgin state. Hence,
the idea that old lands are compare
lively worthless should be exploded,
and the sooner this is done the better.
/ How, to apply the doctrine to the
Providence tract, the western Cabar,
rus, those lying between Concord and
Charlotte-and to these may be add
ed the rich red lands of Uwarre and
Caraway-I say to apply this doctrine
+ to these lands, | believe that they are
only subdued, and that they are only
, just now ready to yield their maximum
harvest. No one, however, should mis-
understand my views, for | do no
mean that by pursuing the old plan o
r cultivation, by treading in the o!i
track, that these lands are capable o
/ producing more than they do now bu
' it is by tillage, by the ussfof thos
{ appliances which are truly utodern tina

will consume at least six months, after
which the work will be regarded as a.

which took Of the subject when / first
engaged in the work. ihope now to say
that by the. time your administration
or term Of Office has expired the survey
will be essentially finished so far as
outdoor work is concerned. :.
IL has been my desire to promote the
interests Of the State in some way or
other. And it has appeared to me that
a course and plan which would bring
to the State capital, was the plan BY
which its interests and the interests Of
its citizens would be best promoted. II
is, however, unnecessary that should
dwell upon this subject. ! will only
add that believe that nearly a million
Of dollars will be added to the work
ing capital in the mining districts. and
that this capital will, by no means, be
sunk or lost, and | also fully believe
that this interests will be placed on a
basis from which thecitizens will de-
rive continually increasing profit for
years to come.

Burglary and Rowdyisn,.

q On Saturday night, the Shoe Shop of M. Beans,
south Of the Court House, was burglarously en-
tered, and boots, shoes and leather, amounting TO
ESQ, stolen. An attempt was made to enter the
Drug Store of DIR. Swift, by endeavoring TO pry
the front door open, with crow-bar, or heavy
chiseI. The attempt, however, was not success
full. The door of Seymour's Dry Goods Store
was also tried.
Come of the b'hoys were out that night. Signs
were changed, boxes piled upon the sidewalks,
&c.
The burglary and .'boxing up," were NOT, prob
ably, committed by the same persons. No reli-
able clue. has yet been obtained of the perpetra-
tors of either. The young men who played their
pranks SO finely, 'just for fun" might by chnin
