The State CanitoI Bill.

The state capitol bill is now speclai
order of the House. The state Road lease
resolution being out of the way, II VIII
nrobably be considered at once. The ques-
f;on of erecting new capitol building
has been discussed several years. lhere
is no doubt that such building is needed.
The location has been selected and the
necessary ground accepted by the state.
The only things to be done are TO determine
the limit of cost, appropriate the money,
and appoint the commissioners to take
charge of the work. 1t is just as good
time now to begin the building as it will
be in the near future. twill be urged, per-
haps. that the present capitol building is
good enough for the present. 1t is true
that we can get along with it. but what is
the use of waiting when it is understood
and agreed that there is to be new build
ing. There ought to be no hesitation on
account of the cost. Georgia is not poor.
She is as able as any Southern state,
Texas excepted, to put up capitol build
ing worthy of so great commonwealth
The cost will not be felt by the taX-pay-
ers. particularly as the appropriations
will be made in installments. 1t is pro-
posed to appropriate a million dollars in
all. That sum will be sufficient for
magnificent building if economically and
udiciously expended. OF course, great
care will have to be exercised in the Sc
lection of commissioners, Some men can
accomplish more with one million dollars
than others can with two millions. The
men for commissioners are those whose
integrity is unquestiOned, and who
know how to spend money
to the best advantage. Successful
business men rather than politicians
should be selected. If a mistake is made
in choosing commissioners the capitol
NAV cost three millions of dollars instead
of one. The capitol at Albany, New York,
is an example of what irresponsible and
incompetent commissioners can accom-
plish. More than double the original es-
innate of cost has been spent on that
building. and il is not finished yet. There
is no good reason why this bill should not
pass this session. The same reasons
which are urged against it now will
probably be urged next year and the year
after. The building is needed and the
state Is able to pay for it. These two
points being settled, there ought to be no
difficulty in agreeing upon minor matters.

NORTH CAROLINA PHOSPHATEs
An Important Discovery in Duplin and
Fender Counties.

Major w. l.. Young writes from Ken
ansville to the Wilmington n. c. Re-
rietc as follows:
Il have discovered several large beds of
what l take to be phosphate. In one of
the tributary basins Of Maxwell swamp,
there are two deposits on the land of VIM.
KOrnegay. In one of the deposits it shows
for three hundred yards in the bed of a
ditch. The stones weigh from two to forty
pounds, and are as closely imbedded as
the stones in paved street;
the creyices and interstices are
filled with soft marine mud. The
phosphate looks and appears to be in
character precisely the same as the kind
dredged up from the bed of the Stone
river, in South Carolina, and is entirely
free from carbonate of lime. On the land
of George McClammy, but on the other
sidesOf the divide, in a basin tributary to
Grove Swamp, | discovered another de-
post that shows in a branch and ditch
three hundred or four hundred yards.
This deposit is precisely the same in every
respect as that found on the Maxwell
side. These deposits lack only three
or four degrees of being horizontal
and the upper end of each of the deposits
is copied by the miocene formation. At
kenansville, near the surface. rich speci-
mems of phosphate have been found on
David FarriOr's place, and about half
way between this find and KOrnegay's,
upon JOhnson's land, there are found at
various points in the ditch banks cOpro-
ltes and other forms of phosphate. 1t is
more than probable that when a proper
examination is made, it will be found that
the bed of phosphate will be continuous
from KOrnegay's to Farrior's, distance
of three miles.
'''Years ago | found a rich deposit of
phosphate on the east side of the North
east river, but it being eighteen miles
from the navigable waters of this river, /
said but little about it. | have also found
traces of phosphate at Ben Wethering-
toms, near the junction of the Goshen and
the Northeast river. A rich specimen has
also been found on the land of j. w.
Davis, on the east side Of the river. near
the Wayne line. \ very promising out
crop shows itself on the lands of II. +.
Williams, two miles east of Bannerman's,
in Pender county. The cretaceOus
(chalk formation )-EmmOns-that runs
North Carolina and South Caro-
lima, seems in reaching Fender and Dup
lin counties to he divided into two
separate and distinct parallel belts, the
continuous one being on the west side of
the river, while the secondary one lies on
the east side of the Northeast river. These
belts are upon the table land, and fire.
Quently tnelr margins are ten miles apart,
the river flowing through the great basin
between the belts. In South Carolina the
phosphate is found in the serratures of
the eastern margin of this belt (chalk for
nation J, and in Fender and Duplin coun-
ties traces of phosphate are found all
along the margins of the two respective
belts. The probabilities are that when
proper search is made phosphate will be
found in great quantities in these two
counties, and perhaps the find will extend
into Wayne and Lenoir counties.

Snow in July.



With the middle of this month a great
change of temperature set in over central
Europe, and in the Alpine districts winter
seemed to have come back again. On
July Is the whole of the Carinthian Alps
were covered with heavy fall of snow.
A letter from the Pusterthal describes the
country all round as a thorough winter
landscape, while the temperature in the
valley fell to within degrees of frost.
A letter from Innsbruck of the l4th says
that the surrounding mountains were
covered with snow, the result of heavy
fall the day before, which only slightly
yielded to the hot sun of the next day.
In the Salzkammergut and the Bavarian
highlands people had been forced to re-
sumo furs and other winter clothing. A
telegram from Berne reports that the
Simplon road was rendered impossible by
the overlooking of the Rhone, and the
Mulethal tunnel, on the road between
Berne and Fribourg, was destroyed.

A FARMERS TERRIBLE DEATH.
A Farm Hand Gored to Death by a
Furious Bull.

A special from Atlantic Highlands,
n. j., August 9th, to the New York World
says that eX-Sheriff Thompson, of Mon
mouth county, n. j., who resides near the
Atlantic Highlands, is the owner of noted
cattle stock, which he keeps on his farm,
among them a Derby bull. This animal
has for long time been source of great
trouble to the farm hands. At times they
were unable to manage the beast. Last
Saturday morning Richard Canary, for
many years in the employ of the eX-Sher-
iff, attempted to drive the bull into
the stable. 1t turned upon him,
and, after chasing Canary around the
barnyard, caught him just as he had
reached the fence, the BULBS horns enter
ing his left leg below the calf, and ripping
it open up to the hip, At the same time
it hurled Canary into the air. Another
workman ran up to help Canary, when
the bull caught him and threw him over
the fence. A third farm hand came to
the rescue with pitchfork, when the
bull made for him, but he ran the pitch
fork into him, causing the bull to turn
and seek shelter in the stables. Canary
was picked up and carried into the house,
but died this morning in great agony.
The deceased was fifty-tive years of age,
and will be buried from New Monmouth.
