Meeting of the Directors of the Work
House.
The Directors of the Wake County Work

There were present Messrs. W. H. Har-

r. G. Badger.
VIII. High was called to the chair, and
John N Bunting requested to act as Secre-

The committee reported that they had ex-
alnined various tracts of land, but found
none more suitable than a tract of five or
six hundred acres belonging to the State, in
the vicinity of Camp Mangum, which could
be bought at from two to two and half
dollars per acre. The report was unani-
mously concurred in.

The Short Crops.

We hear complaints from various quarters
of the shortness of the corn crop. In some
localities not more than fourth of crop
will be made This is said especially to be
the case in large portion of South Carolina.
The last Charlotte Democrat saws:
'From Lincoln and CASTOR counties we
hear cheering reports about the crops A
few localities in those counties have suffered
little from drouth, but generally the pros
pect is fair. The late rains in this section
have done much good.
But we are sorry to hear of poor prospects
IN Union County. The whole CT that Coun-
ty appears to have suffered from tlrouth.-
The proceedings of a meeting of the Magis-
trates of the County will be found in our
columns to-day.
these times as much as possible. Let those
who have corn to spare be particular not to
sell it to extortioners, but to those who actu-
ally need it."
From the Western Democrat
At meeting of the Justices of Union
county, on-Saturday the 1st September, 1866,
called for the purpose of considering the
condition of the people and of devising some
mode for the relief of the destitute, it was
1. Resolued, That the almost entire failure
OF the crops in consequence of the protrac-
ted drouth, following SO soon after the severe
scourging suffered by this county from the
march through it of large portions of both
armies, presents the gloomy prospect of
great suffering, if not starvation, to many of
our citizens
2. That the most fortunate of our people
will find the strictest economy necessary to
enable them to pass safely through the try
ing ordeal before them, and that they will be
unable to do much, if anything, for the more
needy.
8. That copy of these resolutions be sent
to the Governor Of the State, respectfully re-
questing him to take such measures as he
may think best calculated to prevent, or at
least to mitigate, the sad condition of things
herein contemplated.
4. That the Democrat, Meas, Sentinel and
Wadesboro' Argus, be requested to publish
the above proceedings.

Mozart on Fugues.

In the Letters of Mozart, " recently published
by Hurd & Houghvon. we find his views of
fugues and fugueplaying. lie writes to a friend
in relation to one OF his compositions OF this
Class;-
"My dear wife Constance is in fact, the origin
of this tuoue coming into the world. Baron
Won Swieten, to whom ! 60 every Sunday, gives
me all Handel's and Sebastian Bach's fugues
latter have played them 70 him) to take home
with me, When Constance heard these, she fell
in love with them at once; she will listen TO
nothing but fugues, and particularly the works
I'm this style) OF Handel and Bach. AS she had
often heard me play lugues out of my head, she
asked me II never wrote them down; and when
] saiG l never did, she reproaChed me tor not
having composed this most artistic and beauti.
tul style OF music, and never ceased her entrea-
ties till wrote a iugue for her. So this is It's
origin. have purposely timed it dRddate macs
tOsO, that it may not be played too quick for If
a fueue is not rather slowly played, the subject
as it comes in cannot be distinctly and clearly
heard, and thus naturally produces no effect. In
the course of time, and when have favorable
opportunity intend TO write five others, and
present them to Baron Won Swieten, whose col
lection OF music, though small in numbers, is
great in value. So on this account beg you to
adhere TO your PROMISE not to show it to a soul.
Learn it by heart and play il. A fugue is not
easily caught by another person from merely
hearing it,

On Friday evening one OF the buildings in
TarboX block, Bath, Me-, constructed of wood,
took fire and was burned to the ground. The
value OF the premises was about $4,000. Sundry
parties who occupied premises in the block were

"A woman was frozen to death in Syracuse
on Sunday night. The particulars are as fol-
lows:--Mrs. Thompson, who resides alone is
subject TO fits and also addicted to drinking, and
was intoxicated when last seen on Sunday even

taken in tit while in the pantry; for not
making her appearance as usual inquiry was
made for her whereabouts, and on entering her
house, she was found lying on the floor of the
pantry, frozen stlff
"A most fendish murder was committed at
Corners Greek, about tive miles from Detroit
on Friday last. A man named John Cooper
visited the house of his sister, Mrs. Lynch, and
alter remaining there for some time, drew a re-
yOlyer from his pocket and deliberately fired at
her, but missed his malk. He then seized an
axe and made a brutal attack upon her, telling
her to the floor and then commenced cutting
her body in a most horrible manner. While he
was perpetrating this atrocious deed, little son
OF Mis-. Lynch informed some Workmen in the
vicinity OF the act, who Immediately rushed tu
the house, seized the murderer and brought him
to Jail in Detroit. He admits that he intended
TO kill her, and says that she murdered his father
some years ago in Ireland and he committed
the deed to avenge his death.
