Natural RESOURCES. :

We noticed the other dayat TT. Defiance

spoEes In the rough, ready TO be shipped

wagon, and then retarned hereto he pur

hickory. white oak, walnut and ether
species of timber is not sent off to be
manufactured, into the finished article
and then brought hack for. our people to
pay several PIT li's on. A few days ago, a
specimen of fine quality Of cement rock
was brought into Ssaunton. The Jeck is
a abundant, and a test of the cement proves
it to be all that could be desired. 1t is
located ebout four miles from the city.
and has been known in the neighborhocd
for years. There is a cistern in this place
cemented with it. and has been in use for
number of years.
Near Greenyille there is a large deposit
of white sand such as is used IN the manu-
facture of G ass at Wheeling and Pitts
burg, and pronounced ry mparison to be
even supereE-article tethat.--Ye ct there
has been no movement to utilize these
valuable deposits. either Of the cement or
the sand. We buy wagons manufactured
in the North out of the timber Gu. from
our own lands. We purchase cement
ground at distance and shipped here in
barrels. while the cement rock is at oar
own doors. We use glass manufactured
at OTHER points. while we have the sand
from which it is made. lying idle and uses
less IN oar Didst. We have clay within
stone throw of stanton, and yet we
bring from the factories OF the North the
manufactured article. made out of an in
ferior quality. We have iron ore and
manganese lying dead in the mountains
all around US. and yet we make no ntelfi
gent and concentrated effort 10 utilize
them. And so it goes all through the
whole catalogue of natural resources.
which abound in the county and sleep the
