SMOKY MOUNTAIN,
The highest East If tic lHississiR


1t was for long time claimed that Mt. Wash
ington in New Hampshire was the highest point
cast of the Rocky Mountains. Prof Mitchell took
successful issue with this claim, maintaining that
the PEAK of the Black Mountain, upon which he
has since been buried was not only higher than
Mt Washington but was the highest point east of
the Rocky Mountains. In this latter opinion he
was opposed by Hon. T. i. Clngman, and their Is
sue closed only at the death of Prof Mitchell, who,
it will be remembered, was found dead in the glen
below, having fallen from the point above. Mr.
Clingman contended that the Smoky Mountain
was higher than Black. Prof. John LeCOnte of
the South Carolina College has been vacatlonizing
among those grand elevations, making adIneasure-
ments, etc; and from him. whom We had the pleas
ure of seeing in Columbia recently, We have OBJ
tanned some results which are interesting in the
premises. We propose giving some of these re-
suits with others bearing upon the point.
Mt Washington, in New Hampshire, according
to Capt T. j. Cram of the United States Coast
Survey, is 6203 feet above the ocean, We have
here in North Carolina at least fifteen every one of
which is higher than that. Black Mt was meas

highest point east of the Rocky is one of those

except Jones Peak which was measured by the
three gentlemen mentioned in connection with
Smoky Mountain. We give them all, i'll feet

COMMON SCHOOLS.

We make the following extract from letter ad-
dressed to by friend in one of the Counties of
this State:
"Will you favor me with answer to the following
Is it legal for children not resident in the district to
attend the school of the said district?
Is the study of Greek, Latin, other Languages
which usually considered 'sextrIs' to private
schools iucuded within the range of instruction prov-
died. for by the organic principle of our Common School
System?
If not under what circumstances, any, may it
be tolerated?
Your reply the above will greatly obIige many of
your friends
We have carefully examined the Common School
laws in relation to the foregoing points, and We be-
heve we express their spirit and meaning when we
say in reply
First, That it is not legal for the children of one
district to attend school in another except under
certain provisions and restrictions specified as fol-
lows: On page 7th section %, Clatter clause of
the pamphlet edition Of the Common School laws
issued in 1857, it is provided that committees of one
district may unite with individuals of another for
the purpose of raising a sufficient to carry on
the schools for the longest time. The obvious
meaning of this is, that where school is not
crowded by the children of the district, the COM
mIttee may receive other children for paw the sum
to be added to the school fund of the district
Again, on page 9th of said pamphlet, section Is,
1t is provided that the children in any one district
may, by the consent of two superntendants attend
the school of another district
Except in these cases it is not legal for the chill
dren of one district attend the school of another
Secondly, We believe it is not in accordance
with the spirit of the Common School system for
the studies of Latin and Greek to be introduced into
the schools. The great object of the system seems
to be to put the means of good English education
within the reach of all; and such is the spirit of
Common Schools every where, except where graded
schools exist But small portion comparati, ely
of any community would ever study the ancient
languages even if they had the opportunity; and if
they we're introduced into our schools there would
at once be feeling of jealousy that the teacher
time would be too much occupied with studies not
Interesting useful to the great majority of the
people This seems to be the obvious meaning of
that provision of the law which says "-Any branch
OF English education may be taught in said
schools" See pamphlet referred to, page sec l6
Such are our views on these interesting subjects;
and on submitting them, as above stated. to the
General Superintendent, Rev. c. H. Wiley we
hnd that he fully concurs, and informs us that he
has repeatedly given similar opinions

CRIMSON COTTON.-Mr Thomas Smith who
resides in the immediate vicinity of Richmond, Va,
has small field of cotton which is considered a
curiosity by all who have seen it. 1t differs but
little in appearance from the ordinary kind except
in color, which is dclcately crimson maiden s
blush. Not only is the stock of this of gorgeous
hue, but the leaves also, the vividness of color
fading however, as it approaches the margin of the
leaf into purplish green. This is not the effect of
disease, or of any extraneous circumstances con-
nected with its culture, but peeuliarity in the
plant itself, every stock possessing the same rich
and healthtul GLOW, and Is thrifty any cotton in
the country.

NAILS IN FRUIT TREEs.-A singular fact and
one worthy of being recorded, was mentioned to
few days since by Mr. Alexander Duke of
Albemarle. He stated that whilst on a visit to a
neighbor, his attention called to large peach
orchard, every tree in which was totally destroyed
by the ravages of the worm with the exception of
three, and these the most thrifty and flourish
ing peach trees he saw. The only cause of
their superiority known to this host was OK
pertinent made in consequence of observing that
those parts of worm eaten timber into which nails
his trees were about year old, he had selected
three of them and had driven ten penny nails
through the body near the ground as possible
whilst the balance of his orchard had gradually
failed aud finally yielded entirely to the ravagcs Of
the worms, these three trees, selected at random
treated precisely in the same manner, with the
ception of mailing had always been Vigorous and
healthy, furnishing him at that very period with
greatest prousion of the most lucious fruit 1t is
supposed that the salt of iron afforded by the nail
is offensive to the worm, whilst it is harmless Or
perhaps beneficial to the tree.
a chemical writer on this subject says:
''The oxydation rusting of the iron by the sap
evolves ammonia, which the sap rises, will of
course impregnate every part of the foliage and
prove too severe dose for the delicate palate of
intruding insects
This writer recommends driving half dozen
nails into the trunk. Several experiments of the
kind have resulted successfully .-Southem Plan
