LETTER FROM TYPO.

TYBo, July q, 1875.
EDITOR RECORD: Having a feeling for
wandering Piochers. and considering it
my duty to inform the laboring class of
people in Phoebe who are at present
drifting from their camp to the numer-
GUS txcitements that are continually
springing up all over the State, l would
take upon myself the liberty of giving
them a timely warning" Do not come
to Typo. II you do you will walk out
hungry. The glowing reports that the
newspapers are constantly giving this
place are to a certain extent, false. The
men that are to work in this camp are
all that can possibly be put a. any kind
OF labor. Fourteen PiocLers arrived
here yesterday, worn out from fatigue
aud exposure. Upon their arrival, they
saw the little streets of Typo throneed
with whites, negroes, Cinnamon and In
dams, and. of course, thinking they had
come to White Pine No. 2. they rode
through the streets as dignifed only as
Piocher can be. To-day, they seek
the foreman of the one mining company
that is here. in search of work, and are
given the following encouraging answer:
That the mine Is full, aud that there are
plenty of pioneers in this place if there
should be any vacancy. They then turn
upon their heel and curse themselves for
coming here, and many are heard to say
" 1 wish had stayed in Phoebe; no mat
ter how dull Phoebe is, it is better than
ten TYPOS" l know nothing of Ward
or Columbus Districts. but | do know
that what Piochers are here will endorse
what have written.

managed to retain hold of the lines and
succeeded in stopping the animal.
MEETING -Prote ction Hose Company
held special meeting at their Hose
House last evening at 8 o'clock. As it
was special business they met to tran

to do with it.

A Wheat Bull.

CHICAGO. April IA sensation
was produced in the board of trade
this morning, whenit was discovered
that Frank Cambor. a member of
the board, had withdrawn his ac-
count from bank and absconded,
leaving about 100000 bushels of
wheat unprovided for. He has been
bull and bought largely during the
recent rise, SO that this loss on the
whole amount is from 2 to 8 cents
per bushel. The decline which has
occurred of late, alarmed him, and
it is supposed that he. has gone to
California with what money he had.
The members who lost by this trans
action were obliged to throw large
amount on the, market, which occa-
stoned a rapid decline.

~ We were not surprised that

FROM THE HORSE SHOE.

To the Editor of the Morristown Gazette:
We have nothing OF very great
importance to write, but we offer
you such as we have. Notwith-
standing the recent cold snap, the
thrifty farmers of this section are
planting corn. Some say it is too
soon, but we think it is best to be
ahead rather than behind time in
this respect.
There is yet encouragement for
the farmer. The wheat in this vi
einity never looked better at this
season of the year. We have very
good prospect for apples and cher
ries and yet we have some peaches.
but we are or the opinion they are
of the masculine gender. else they
would have been frozen out before
now.
At the recent school election held
in Granger county, the Horseshoe
district was the only one that voted

gress thrifty and interesting school

OUR SOUTHERN CONNECTIONS.

A correspondent. in the last Ashe-
willie lEppositor gives an interesting
and satisfactory account of the pro-
gross of the work on the Spartan
burg and Asheville line OF railroad,
and declares that.the projects no
longer a myth or doubtful enter
prize. but that the road will be built.
and that at once. The parties who
have taken contracts on the work,
are pronounced solid and RESPONSE
BILE men, and have given security
that it will be completed in eighteen
months from the date of the bids.
The correspondent Gays:
For the short space of time they have
been at work, the amount accomplished
is simply astonishing. Any "d0nbting
Thomas" has only to make flying trip
to the stockade to become convinced
that the men at the head of this enter
prise are in earnest, and mean to build
this Road. Nearly two miles of the
heaviest part of the road is graded, and
brings fifty more cOnvicts next week.
This gives a working force of 1877.
The meeting of the Directors at Gar
risOn's was a most harmonious and sat
isfactory one. The exhibit of that most
courteous gentleman and efficient Secre-
tary and Treasurer, Mr.. VIM. Blake,
was a most gratifying one.
In the past few months over So, 000

and the total Indebtedness of the Com
pany to day can be liquidated with $120,

the owners of the Spartanburg & Union
Railroad, and a gentleman of immense
wealth, was elected Director, vice r.
W. Allen, Esq, resigned. Mr.. Inman

to the Block House, and the Board OF

probable some person will be defeated.

BROTHER IN DISTRESS.
RUTLEpGE, Tenn, April 10, '76.
To the Editor Of the AaorristoNn Gazette:
The farmers are getting their
ground ready. for corn-some are
planting, while others are fast clip
ping up to plant.
Wheat looks pretty well, taking
everything into consideration, and
looking through hopeful glasses.
Fimes-oh, yes sir we have them
here-got them bad too. / don't
know if we can get over of them all
by ourselves, either. Sometimes |
think we can. if the fruit crop don't
get killed; and then, again, / think
/ don't know how it will be.
Chancery and Circuit courts, Sam
uel Jones told me yesterday, were
on their road to this place. You see
this is how he came to tell me: /
met him with his saddle-bags across
his shoulder and bundle of papers
in his hands, just leaving the Court
house, and thought 1 would like
to know whether he was fixing to
move, and so / asked him what he
meant by being all ready packed.
I was mistaken, though, he won't
move. He was getting ready for
court, and I reckon he will do it.,
Judge Randolph says he has beat
our Sheriffs heretofore. all holLoeo,
finding an answer to the names on
the capiases given him to look after.
/ reckon the Judge will find him
ready, with the docket up, when he
| gets here They do say that going
to another county amt much of a
tramp when Sam gets q paper to so
to see a man. He is so obliging
that-well, there's no telling how
far he would go on such accommoda-
ton trips, nor to what trouble he
would put himself on such occasions.
Nothing short of the State line
would stop him. If you don't be-
lieve it, "come and See"
/ hear some rumor that probably
Sam will run for Sheriff again.
| don't know how it is, but the ont
| look says that if he is as hard to
beat as be is to escape from when
he wants to see you, you may calcu-
late that it will take q tremendous
long pole to out reach his.
We have got tombstone factory
with us too. I tell you we are u
manufacturing place over here. Our
factory proposes to make tomb-stones
cheaper and better than the old way
that nature has of planting them ont
to grow. Yes, sir; cheaper, better,
and plentier Of them, and all for =
well, just a little money.
