The NORTH CAROLINA ASYLUM SCANDAL
Raleigh, N. G., July 20.---The board jaf- air
'sectors of the insane ssy1..s, >n---< con-
tinuous investigation for three weeks'of the
charges against DIR. Eugene Grissom, super
intendent, charged with immortality with
female attendants, cruelty to patients and
misuse of public property, to-day rendered
a decision of not guilty on oil the charges
The vote stood two for conviction and six
for not guilty.
1t is really none Of our business, but if
the case had occurred with the lunatio
asylum of this State and the verdict of the
board of Regents or Directors was ''not
guilty on ALL the charges" and 25 per cent.
of the board considered him guilty, we
should think him guilty Of some of the
charges, and for the good name Of the insti-
tuition We should insist upon new super
intendent being elected. The charges
against DIR. Grissom were of more than ordi-
nary criminality, and nothing short of u
perfectly clear record and unanimous de-
cision of not guilty Of any one of the charges
should be demanded, if he is permitted to
remain in his very delicate and important
position.

pA- Our energetic young friend, Jas. H.
Rodger has got his brick yard machinery
into working order, and is now turning out
first-ratc brick, much in the same way that
sausage grinder turns out sausage, at the
rate of about 10000 a day.
We visited the brickyard Monday after
noon and found Mr.. Rodger as busy Us a
bee in a buckwhcat field, and about ms
happy. We know no man in this commu-
nifty, so we'll fitted for conducting such an
enterprise as Mr. Rodger. Nature made
him n first-rate mechanic, and with it he
possesses unaagging industry and energy,
and if there is money in that brick factory
he will grind it out. .v,. ...,v rr. s,.., VI
his yard is very superior for making smooth
and hard bricks, and after he has made
enough to build the Oil Mill and Graded
School buildings he hopes to commence
making for Cotton Factory, and dur
ing that time he expects to establish repu-
tation for making the best bricks in the
State.

BeD" We have never had more nattering
reports from the crops than we are now
daily receiving from every section of the
county.
Upland corn never looked better, and that
on the bottoms is also looking fine. Wheat,
generally, turned out well and was saved in
prime condition.
Cotton looks promising where we'll culti-
waited, and is generally "laid by clean, well
frnted and with healthy growth. If no
disaster strikes this county, there will be
food enough Ttade this year for man and
beast, and son.e to spare, except bacon,--a
we hope next year we shall raise enough of
that, or nearly so. With plenty to eat and
the money for their cotton in their pockets,
or debts paid, we shall hear but little about
the depressed condition of our Farmers and
the Agriculture, of the country, in year or
two.

nay" Mr. J. A. FAINT had quite an excit-
ing encounter with n mad dog on his premi-
ses last Monday. When first discovered the
dog was running furiously about the yard
foaming at the mouth. On being attacked
the animal ran into the house, where Mr.
Fants wife and children were, and got into
closet, when two pistol shots were fired
into him by colored servant He then ran
into the yard again, when Mr.. FAINT finished
him by putting a ball through his heart
Mr.. FAINT says the animal neither barked or
yelped when struck by the balls fired into
him.
The terrible excitement in that family
with mad dog in the house, can be better
imagined than expressed.

THE VALUE on COTTON SEED.

In the matter of the value of the hulls

oomplished Ia faticning cattle are iueon-
testable. The exact proportionate value is
made known 4QusnijiY ,py chemical anaiy-
els. DR.. Dabney gives the anaIysis as fSI-
lows SO per cent. fats, 47.12 per cent.
crude celluless, 1867 per cent. carbo-hy-

value as cattle food. as rated from this

and that practically they are better FOR fat

Their present selling price Iur rnis pn;'.
pose will average 81 per ton, though, rs
compared with the items above, their real
value is more, and higher price ought TO
be and probably will be obtained. The In
convenience Of their bulk could DO resdiiy
done away with by pressing them into
condensed form.
First as cattle food and then az q fer
hlizer, thes, hulls have been pearls of un-
known value, but unfortunately they have
not been enough cast before swine. The
raw seed contsins about so per cent. each,

sideration the fact that their reduced cost OF

the loss OF the Int, IL computed on reason
able basis to be twice that Of the raw seed
per ton, or In other words these meats from
each ton OF seed will sell for as much as Is
now realized from the entire ton Of seed
ITSELF
Since so many local mills are now Ia pro.
cess Of erection in this State, the market
will be sure and accessible one, aud there
Is no room here as in tho case Of the hulls
for an advance over present. values. Thus
at the lowest est mate our planters can yet
81 more per ton for their seed than they
have previously obtained. In this ca'culs-
tion ne allowance Ia made for the value Of
the lint which remains on the seed after
ginning, and which, after being taken of
by special gins made for the purpose, yielis
an average of thirty pounds per ton. worth
from I'VE to SIX cents per pound, 81 Soto
81 80 per ton Of seed. or course this lint
Is valueless as cattle food, and the hulls
would not lose in value by it's separation
from them.
Thus common sense would seem TO dictate
the provision Of means for tho realixinR of
the profits pointed out, and the utilIlation
at home Of all the products of the cotton
seed will yearly add thousands OF dollars ts
the wealth Of the country in which they arc
produced.
II has been well said that no country offers
better field for cattle, stcck, hog and
