ICAMnHIIRR oNp SNAILs

'CAMPHIRE oND SNAILS.
We mention these together, not that
they have any relation'to to eath other, but
because both sustain each in its particu-
lar way, a most important relation to. a
subject that is agitating the. public mind
hereabeuts. AS certain and safe indica-
tors of ofapproaching bad weather, either
or both are said to far surpass either the
goose-bone, the eround-hog, or both
combined. A9nian must pat gum cam
phife in bottle.of sperits, but neither
the sperits or the man must get drunk;
when storm is brewing the campfire
will rise in the spirits, ard when the
weather is fair, and promises to remain
fair, the gum will settle at the bottom OF
the bottle. We were not informed
whether it indicated the approach of do
mestic storms oi mot; if SO, a bottle of
this indicator will doubtless be found in
every mans pocket, strictly for pruden-
tial reasons.
When the snail is dry the wealth
.er will remain dry and fair; whenever it
assumes a damp appearance, look out for
squalls soon. The snail IA this parsiea-
lar, has strong affinity to human ma
ture. We have known violent storms to-
break loose among men who had passed
from "dry" to a wet state.
We have also learned that raK Irish
potatoes and buckeyes are prevailing
and popular habit in this country. tits

The BApr1srs OF WESTERN NORTH CAR

The BAPTIsrs OF WESTERN NORTH CAR
oLlNA.
Speaking of the Baptist denomination
of Western North Carolina, and their
paper, a correspondent writes the Blue
Ridge Baptist from Asheville
Already the most numerous and pro-
gressive, they are fast becoming the most
wealthy and influential people in the
country, and in our opinion, nothing
could add more to their prosperity and
influence for good than the general cir
culation of a progressive religious news
paper. We belisye that in the Blue Ridge
Bdpfist we hay5 such paper and that its
removal to Asheville, the Metropolis of
the West, will mark a new era in the
history of Western North Carolina Bap-
fists and, the general material as well as
religious development of our section. 1t
has therefore, become the first duty of
every Baptist to labor with might and
main for the establishment and support
of our paper, that it's influence may grow;
that it may scatter on every mountain
and in every valley the seeds of truth
and good works. Its removal to Ashe-
vile will be welcomed by all classes and
denominations OF our people, and from
the first issue at this place, it will be re-
garded as an established and prosperous
enterprise. No newspaper in our section
ever began its career with brighter pros
poets or the more general confidence of
the people.

Senator Ingalls,, of Kansas, says
there can be no controversy or dead
lock between the President and the
Senate. Iftne President does not
choose to give the information call
ed for in regard to removals or sus-

Fhe Senate can only refuse to con-
firm his appointments and put the
President to the trouble of reap
pointin his man at the close of the
session. Senator Ingalls, carries a
very level head.

a young man by the name of Albert Nor
gan working for him. On yesterday
morning he sent Morgan to cut some fire
wood. Morgan began on a large tree
that had been cut in time and lodged on
another tree. While he was cutting on
the tree it slipped off the stump and
turning fell backward. Comfy heard the
falling of the tree, but not the sound of
the axe again, went to see after the cause
and found Morgan buried under the tree
some ten feet from the stump with no.
thing visible but one hand. Help was
called in and the tree cut away and he
was taken out completely mangled, His
head was crashed, neck broken, both
arms and thighs also, and his body near
ly cut through.
Our town is progressing rapidly.

Our old friend Geo. Gchagan of NIadi-
son, gave us pleasant call yesterday.
He always has something useful to say
concerning farming, for he is one of the
best farmers in Western Carolina. He
mentioned plan which his father al
ways followed successfully in plowing.
For instance, if he had clover field
which he wanted to pat in wheat or
corn, he would not turn under the clover
growth, as is customary, but would use a
tongue-plow, breaking the land deep,
leaving the vegetable matter upon top Of
the soil to shade and protect it. This,
Mr.. Gehagan said, would make the land
yield considerably more than the other
system. Mr.. Gehagan, ST.. gathered q
bushels of wheat per acre from this me-
thod of tillage, and the. landi improved
every year under his system. This
suggestion may be worth the attention
of our farmers. Suppose all try part of
a field that way. to see the result.
