The Area of North Carolina.

| Some who have had occasion to examine at
teHtiveiy the statistics of the Eighth Census
have doubtless been more or less nonplused al
the deficiency of 5,704 square miles which ap
pears in the report of the area of North Carolina
as compared with the report Of the same as given
in the Seventh Census. The total area of the
State according to the Census of 1850, and also
according to other official reports of previous
date, was 50,704 square miles; but. according
to the Census of 1860, the area of our Common
wealth was reckoned at only 45 600 square miles
Uncertain as to which of these two governmental
reports was correct, and, at the same time fail
og to perceive any good reason why North Caro-
lima should not be credited with all the territory
that really belongs to her, [ wrote for informa-
tion to the Hon. Secretary of the Interior whose
reply, in connection with the joint reply of the
Commissioner of the General Land Office, settles
the matter definitely, and leaves u.s. as citizens of
the Old North State, in quiet and undisputcd
possession of our very ample domain of 50,7o4
square miles. The correction of this error re-
stores North Carolina to the position of prcce-
dence which, in extent of territory, she formerly
enjoyed, respectively, over the five large States
Of New York, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Missis-
sippi and Louisiana. 81"

State Penitentiafy.

The Commissioners appointed to locate the
State Penitentiary, have selected spot about
half a mile above Lockville on this side of Deer
river, two miles above Haywood, in Chatham
county, and about eight miles this side of Pitts
boro. They have bought 5000 acres of land
upon which minerals of various kinds, with
sufficient water power for all purposes They
paid for it 81 600 in State bonds. The Com
missioners will proceed Immediately to erect a
stockade enclosing about four acres, and the
necessary buildings inside of it for the eonyicts
50 that they may be put to work getting out
rock for the building, and leveling. grading and
preparing the foundation of it. The site is
thought to be very eligible and advantageous in
every way. Geographically. it is known to be
the exact center of the State
The Governor has addressed circular to the
sherifs of the State, directing them to report to
him the number of convcts under their charge,
together with the crimes for which they were
convicted with view to direct such as he may
think proper to designate for the purpose to be
put in the stockade to work.-JaL IStendasd.

USEFUL INVENTIoN-A machine for harvest

while they are standing in the field, was exlffb-
tied at the recent State fair in Illinois. The APP
paratus is constructed to strip two rows at once.
The stalks are taken between projecting metal

Small Farms.

Everything connected with the prosperity of
the South seems TO Indicate the necessity Of
changing very materially the system of agricul-
ture. Some of our planters, who are favorably
situated find it to their advaptaGe TO keep up
their large plantations and to employ largo
force. Every must. OF course be his own
Judge in this matter. But, as a general rule,
the want of cheap labor to keep the drains and
bitches open, to keep the fences up and a general
system OF improvement OH the farms, plainly in
dlcaes the necessity of reducing tho size of our
f;arrus aud leasing them to good tenants, at rea-
| sonable prices, in order to the improvement Of
the lands.
Skilled labor aud ordinary industry and foro-
cast will soon convince every one, that the sys-
TEN Of small farms offers the highest Inducements
to the future we'll being of the community. We
must try the adoption Of the shift system or
| change of crops leaving lands uncultivated with
a coat Of clover under fence to prevent grazing,
the cultivation Of the cereals and the grasses,
well as every other article needed either for home
consumption or market produce. Let every
| person plant an orchard OF choice fruits. There
is scarcely anything more profitable, and certain
! ly nothing more attractive to make home pleas
ant to a family. -.....-
