months, living with her children.
She was the mother of Mr. Frank
West and Mrs. Rogers, and aunt of
Mr.. w. w. West, all now residents

TEA.

This is extensively adulterated both
in China and this country by the means
of exhausted tea leaves and leaves OF
other trees Mineral matters are also
used for coloring or facing teas; clay
sand etc are extensively used. The tests
for these are by infusion; this is poured
off the leaves and examined for color,
taste and odor, all of which are easily
detected.

DE-. HkNRY BoYNroN.

Dhs HENRY bo4NTON,
Of Vermont, leaves for home today
after a sojourn of about four months
in thissection. He leaves with the sim
cere good will and good wishes of many
friends he has made here. He has made
thorough study of Western North Car
olina, for which his intelligence and close
observation gave him perfect aptitude.
He has also made study of the charac-
'teristics of the Southern people; and with
his well balanced judgment can speak of
us invariably and with friendly spirit;
though the same judicious temper may
authorize him to speak truths, whole
some, but not palatable. But he certainly
will not malign or misrepresent US.
We wish him warm welcome at his
home, and will be ready to give him one
here whenever it pleases him to return
among us.
DIR. Boynton will be accompanied
on his homeward trip by Mr. Cushing of
Boston who has also been here on short
visit to Asheyille.

was a neighbor Of John Lawler, also
identified the remains, aud they were
sent to Chester Saturday morning on
