THE WAY IT WORKS. We see it stated
that before the war person worked but
half a day for the Government, and the re-
naming five and half days for himself; but
now, owing to the heavy taxation, which
the country will have to bear for several
years to come, and of which the laboring
classes will have to bear their share, man
will have to work two days for the Govern
mcnt, leaving but four for his own benefit.

THE COUNTY PRINTING. Last Sunday
week ago, GEORGE SCuNoRR went to Veins
berg on an electioneering excursion. While
there he represented to different persons
that we had charged three thousand dollars
the past year for county printing. The
county printing for the past year, including
paper, some blank books, advertising.
blanks for officers and all other matter in
that line was between six hundred and seven
hundred dollars. and less than it has Leen
any year during the past eight. We did
not charge less for our work than previously.
but the great decrease in litigation made less
work necessary. Mr. SCuNoRR told what
was false and malicious, imputing crime
to us--that of plundering the county. We
will not tamcly submit to such charges as
this, and we have according employed at.
torneys to commence suit against him for
SANDER.
Those who elcctioneer may if they wish
charge us with belonging to clioues, az well
as all the other claptrap usually INDUCED by
those who become very anxious for their
favorites but we cannot allow men to pub
licly charge as with high crime for the pur-
pose Of influencing men svotes.

TIE New CATTLE LAw.-The Legisla
ture recently adjourned passed an act pro
hibiting cattle, horses, sheep or swine from
running at large. 1t is now in force, anG
provides that no cattle, or stock of any kind
shall be turned out of the enclosure of the
owners, or left to run in the highways, unde,
heavy penalties except in certain specified
cases, which are these: The County Com
missioncrs may pass an order that any cattle
may run at large, in any part Of the County,
if they think proper If they do not do 50
all stock must be kept up, unless the indi-
yidual owners shall obtain a special permit
from the township trustees, for certain
specified animals to run in the highways
1t would be well for those owning stock to
see to this matter before they incur the pen
alties of the law.

WINTER APPLES.

More fine winter apples have originated in
North Carolina than many persons are aware of,
and our mountain region might almost supply
tie world with this fruit, if proper attention
were paid to its culture.
First in the list of APPLES for the South we
place the "Shockiey." Its advantages are, COM
ing most quickly into bearing, occupying the
least space (being an upright grower, it can be
planted as near together peach trees), and
most important of all, its fruit being the best
keeper, lasting until June. The "Culasaga' i:
o splendid fruit, also the Niekajaik," the
"Mangum," the "Oconee Greening," and tho
beautiful "Nantahallee," in whose praise &
Georgia poet sings thus
You've heard I think, of the beautiful maid,
Who fed from Loves caresses,
Till her beautiful toes were turned to roots
And both her shoulders to beautiful shoots,
And her beautiful cheeks to beautiful fruits,
And to blossoming spray, her tresses
I've seen her man she's living yet,
Up in a Cherokee valley!
She's an apple tree.-and her name might be,
In the softly musical Cherokee,
A long drawn-"Nantahalee !"
IT'S as sweet word as you'll read or write;
: Not quite as fair as the thing, yet quite
Sufficient to start an old Anchorte,
Out of his ashes to bless and bite
