A BIG GOLD FIND.
Weighing it on .Grocers' Scales and
Measuring IL in Pint Cups. q

SALISBURY, N. c., Novenlber 9.
News Genes here today of rich gold
find in Montgomery county by Tel
Saunders. Last week he toes o.
1000 pennyweights, and sent, be-
sides, seven pounds Of gold ore to the
Charlotte mint. In one rockerful of
grit four ounces of gold was found.
The gold is in placers' grit, and is the
richest ever found in the state. Two
peck baskets full of gold and speci-
mems were taken out of the mine yes
terday. Tebe has 100 hands at work,
and gets so much gold that no pre-
tense is made at weighing it except
on a pair of grocer's scales, or to
measure it in a half pint cup to pay
the royalty, which is shared by the
hands. Below the grit small viens
are found that are more than half gold.
There is no fraud about this, for the
gold shows for itself, and it has
created intense excitement here.

and appearance of the volume, says it

then plunges wildly into statistics as fol
lows:-'It will surprise most of our read
ers to know that in Paterson there are IS

artists, 4 banks and 3 bankers, 78 BARRIERS,

estimating the population of a city by
making a calculation based on the num-
