counties, there being seven or eight daily
mails, and many weekly, semi and tri-

The internal revenue taxes Laid by this
city from June LIST, 1885, to January LIST,
1886, amounted to 1888 ,O03.13 or $34, OO1. 16
per month, making a total of $403, OI3 per
annum.
The Government pays out 500 or $500
annually for rents of revenue offices in this

Hon. w. REID-Dear Sir: In reply to
yours of the LIST inst, have to state that
the Government building, in course of con-
structlon at this place, will have no room to
accommodate the internal revenue office

The Northwestern n. c. Railroad ship
ped from this point in 1885 over thirty
million pounds of freight. The North Caro-
lima Midland Railway, the great through
line South, runs by this city, and there is
now being projected branch road of the
1adkin Valley system that will cross here
and make this one of the greatest railroad
centers in the South, as it is already called
the Chicago" of North Carolina
In view of these facts, and 1T having been
the policy of the Government under every
administration for fifty years to erect public
buildings where they are needed for the
transaction of Government business, your
committee are of the opinion that public
building should be erected at Winston

fishes large seven column supplement,
containing a report of the proceedings OF
the recent convention at Roanoke City, Va,
called to effect the organization of the
Roanoke and Southern Railroad, which will

worthy careful perusal by all who have
the welfare and progress of this city and
this section at heart. The Roanoke and

county should leave no step unturned in
endeavoring to do everything possible to-
wards a practical realization of the bene-

GOLDEN ',]';1 ROD.

A golden rod! sweet golden rod,
Bride OF the autumn sun:
has he kissed thy blossoms this mellow
morn,
And tinged them one by one?
Did the crickets sing at the christening.
When, in his warm embrace.
de gave thee love from the fount above.
And beauty, and cheer, and grace?
He brishtens the asters, but soon they fade.
He reddens the sumach tree;
And the clematis loses it's snowy bloom,
But he's true as truth to thee.
Scattered on mountain-top or plain.
Unseen by human eye,
He turns thy fringes to FURNISHED gold
BY loves sweet alchemy.
And then, when the chill November comes.
And the flowers their work have done.
Thou art still unchanged, dear golden rod.
Bride OF the autumn sun!

A.Goodfy Old Kitchen.

A correspondent ofithe New Orleans

OF the potato, and pork merchants
there, stands, asst has stood for q
couple of centuries, the old Falstaff

with ivy. At the end OF the hall was
a:.lovely old kitchen with floor Of
cool tiles and a gorgeous dinner SER
vice OF purple, red, blue and gold dis
played in wide racks against the wall.
"A bright fire was urn,ng, the red Goals
glowing between the bars of the CRATE,
and a vast deal Of cooking was going
on. The kettle. is, boiling with a fussy
effusion like that OF q comfortable,
housekeeping, good-hearted, mother
ly woman, bustling about to get things
ready for her good man and the chill
dren. A leg OF lamb was roasting be-
fore the fire. A string or thin iron

wish l had some OF it at this moment.
A trim young woman, wearing the
whitest Of mob caps, the cleanest of
white aprons, stood before the fire
broiling a chop. She had long
led, double tin broiler or gridiron in
her hands. The chop was shut up in
this, and. she patiently held it before
the fire as we would hold up wet
towel to, dry, turning it round now
and them; and what, with the tea-ket-
tie, the bursting of the skin OF the leg
of the lamb, the Sizing of the savory
chop, most comforting, if deafening,
noises filled the cosy room. The girl
turned. q rosy face at us and smiled
comfortably. The smile, the goodly
old kitchen, the rows OF deli on the
wall, the nodding red hollyhocks out
in the,garden, the recollections of that
swinging, jolly old Falstafs of the
charming windows and deep window
seats warmed me to the heart with
enthusiasm.
