Salt.


Last week We stated that twenty-five
bushels of Saltto four horse wagon could
be obtained at the Virginia Salt Works.
That was an error, as we learned that only
five bushels to the horse is allowed, which
is furnished at one dollar per bushel. But
any quantity can be bought in, the neigh7
borhood at three and four dollars per bush.
ell. Several wagons sent from this county
for salt, have returned, occupying, nearly
two weeks in the trip: They were detained
at the works only about six hours.
A sale of about so two.bushel sacks Of
salt was made in this place at public auc.
ton last week. 1t brought from s25 to
$50 per sack. The salt was made in the
neighborhood of Norfolk.
The following letter was handed to US
for publication for the benefit of the pub.

Sir: At your request will proceed to
give you my experience and observations
obtained in recent trip to the Salt Works
near Abingdon, Va. The distance from
Charlotte to the works blythe nearest pos.
sible route Is ona hundred and eighty
miles. I started from Charlotte to he works
on the 9th Of May, and returned on the
Goth, have made the trip in II working
days. The route from Charlotte is through
Davidson College, statesville and Jones.
Vile in Surry county; and after crossing
the Yadkin Rivera mile from Jonesville,
at Gwynn's Factory, and travelling some
distance, the road forks-oue, the shortest
by 20 miles, leads by the mouth of Wilson
Creek-the other, known as the Blue
Spring road, is said to be much smoother,
but at last 20 miles farther. would ad.
wise those going to the works to go by the
"mouth of Wilson," and return, in case
they succeed in getting full load of salt,
by the Blue Spring route. -
The proprietors of the works will allow
five bushels of good salt Cat 81 per bushel)
to each horse in team. For instance, to
two.horse wagon, ten bushels; and to g
four.horse wagon, 20 bushels, &c. Over
and above this amount they will barte,
salt for certain articles on the following
terms: For bunch of bale yarn they vii
allow you one and half bushels of salt

would just say to all who need salt (ane
who does not?) that there is great quan
tity of good dry salt, and very little della!
at the works in getting it after you &c
there. There is at least danger in delay
because the Yankees know that the cap
ture of the Licks would be far greater los
to the Southern Confederacy than the los
of New Orleans.

of confidence for our people to exhibit
looks like true patriotism, and will rank in
history as parallel to that faith of the
Romans which induced them to buy lots
in Rome at undiminished prices while Hani'

The trade upon which her citizens relied
has perished with the destruction of their

Lincoln has kept the selfish interests of Eu-
rope quiet. But such deception must al
ways come to an end.-Rschmond Wing.
WHET CROPS AaAIN.-The reports of
the farmers of the country, since our last
issue, encourage the belief that this impor-
taut crop is not to be failure, Gas birds
of evil omen," so confidently predict
None testify to the rust on the stem. All,
with whom we have conversed, believe that
the crop will be an average one. The va
riety of wheat known, as the White wheat,
in this region, has so far escaped any indl.
cations of rust on the blade. If it should
pass through the fiery ordeal unscathed
from which all other wheats are suffering,
it will be we'll for our planters to procure

ting, we repeat, it has proved to be rust,
proof.
Among the proofs to establish our asser-
ton that the disease of the blade will not
materially prevent the development of the
grain, we have before us head of wheat
plucked from the field Of Mr.. Woodward
Allen which is heavily filled. He informs
US that not blade was left upon its stalk ;
all having been destroyed by the rust
With this occular fact, and from informa-
tion and observation, we beli7e that the
frightful stories which are aaoat, that the
wheat crop will not be good one, are the
results of panic in part, but, more specl.
ally of systematic effort to sell corn and
enhance the present exorbitant prices of
flour. Let those who will, Gf there are
such thus inclined) plow up their wheat
sown lands, and plant corn-good may
come out of their folly.-CaroItna SPAR

THE RMPTRE OF HEALTH-WHO
iWIELDS IT'S SCEPTRE.

Universal Empire has been the darling
object OF scores of despots, dynasties, and
states, from the time of the Pharaohss to
that Of Napoleon le Grand. Seas of blood
have been shed to attain it, and the bones
of the myriaas who have been slaughtered
in the pursuit of this chimera, would, if
they could be collected into one mass,
overtop the highest peak of the Himalay
an mountains. Rome came nearest the
consummation, yet even she was never, in
truth, the absolute mistress of the
World
Yet there is species of universal en-
pire which has been attained. 1t is an
empire not over the souls and bodies of
mankind, but over their diseases. The
conqueror who has achieved this grand
result, is Doctor HOLLOWAY, of London;
at least we are taught to believe that he
has done so by vouchers from all parts OF
the Christian and heather world, which
seem to be irrefutable, and which, in fact
so far as we know, have never been chal-
lenged. His Pills and Ointment are
universal remedies" in double sense.
They are disseminated throughout the
habitable globe, and they are ESQ sscrowdi

In this country it is quite certain tha
| the Pills are used with the most beneficial
effect in disorders of the stomach, live
and bowels, and that scrofula, and all th.
family of eruptive diseases and discharg
ing sores, give way to the healing opera

Surely the noblest. of all universal em
pires.is that which stretches its healing
