NORTH CAROLINA GOLD.
Elenty OF It, but It is Extremely Gard
to Mine.

From the Netc York Telegram
Zone Of the papers published page story
about the great find of gold in Western
North Carolina" said John II. Sweeney of
Waynesville, N. c., at the New York hotel,
land while it is perfectly true that there is
plenty of gold in the Blue Ridge mountains,
it is also true that it is ncxt to impossible to
get at it where there is enough water-and
let me say that this is in very few places-to
wash the placer. There is SO much clay
among the gold that it forms what miners
call robbers and, gathering size as it
comes down the sluice, it takes up the gold.
In this kind of mining you have only to
continue to use mercury, and in time you
can spend Vanderbilt's fortune without re-
celving any returns. In the quartz mining
the gold is surrounded with tale and even
after roasting it is impossible to get the
gold TO amalgamate.
Taken altogether, don't think you can
get up any gold fever among cur people.
You Enow it is one thing to wash gold with
slave poor at a cost OF about Sc a month and
quite Raother to do the same work as 81. 80
day. While many of these gold mines
have been sources of considerable incomes
TO theirt owners before the war. no one will
ever be sSmillionaire by their products.

EDITOR BURGESS REPLIES.
To this Editor Burgess Immediately re-
Piled, pleading justification for his original
charge that Editor Brown had lied, and
,ffering to produce the evidence; but here is
nis card:
In answer to the abusive card Of H. c. Brown
q to-day's Constitution have only this to say:
The public is not interested in abusive epithets
rom Mr.. Brown or myself. The question at
ssue is whether Mr.. Brown lied or not. | have

lcter TO establish the fact that Mr.. Brown did
not only lie, but swore TO It. This evidence
duplicates Mr. Livingston and other parties and

Iey have an abundance of evidence sworn to-
establishing the charge against Mr.. Brown
which will take pleasure in exhibiting to any
pne who will call at my office, Is West Hunter

iar, everybody knows this is another OF
his infamous lies, but will say
his, should he denounce me as such
rould have to submit to it, He is a
bne-armed man In conclusion. desire to say
that before this matter is over will show up
rore infamous corruption in Mr.. Brown and
his crowd to the square inch than was ever
praeticed by any clique in this state. do not
aismiss the matter, but am lin 1t" till the poo

soCIETY's LATEST FAD.
The Fiancee Now Takes Pains to Ma
lign her Choice.

The Fiancee Now Takes Pains to Ma
lign her Choice.
From the 81. Louis Globe Democrat
''The latest fad, as well as l can make
out, said Washington woman of society,
sis for girls who are engaged to be married
to speak slightingly and in an uncompli-
mentary fashion of the young gentleman of
their choice. A young woman Of my ac-
quaintance. who has recently plighted her
troth, called upon me yesterday, and took
advantage Of the opportunity to con-
graduate her. l could do so quite
truthfully, because the young man
in the case was we'll known to me as possess
ing every desirable quality-good looks,
good temper, good reputation, and money
as we'll. To my surprise his fancee re-
sponded by saying that she did not regard
him very favorably herself She certainly
did not consider him at all good looking; he
might be virtuous enough, but one did not
expect a man to be too goody-goody, and as
for amiability, one never knew how a hus-
band would turn out until she married
him.
81 should have been more astonished at
this discourse had not heard the same sort
of talk from other girls similarly situated
within the last year. Therefore l am in
clined to believe that it is really, as have
said, a new fad. A more undesirable one l
can scarcely imagine. nor can I conceive
what apology there can be for it, 1t Is bad
enough that the girl should not admire the
| man he has chosen. Even if it were true it
| would be deplorable ill-saste to speak of it.
| But to affect it is a most extraordinary abb
| surdity, inasmuch as young woman who
| speaks that way confesses by inference that
| she has accepted a poor specimen of man
hood because she had lost hope of securing
| better one."

KINGS DEFENs
One OF ais Witnesse to be Impeached.
More Testimony.

One OF ais With eeses to be Impeached.
More Testimony.
MEMPHIS, TENN. June 19.-The defense
in the King trial to-day introduced two
more witnesses in support of the insanity
plea and closed their case. The testimony
brought out in rebuttal by the state stands
in a fair way to impeach at least one of the
defense's witnesses who testified early
in the week. Capt. E. R. Hart. a
business man of this city, the first
witness, testified to the strange conduct of
Col. King two years ago. lie thought him
insane enough to take his business away
from him. Hon. Casey Young spoke of
disconnected conversation held at one time
with Col. King, which would indicate an
unbalanced mind. He could not say that
he was insane.
KINGS DIGEST.
Kings Digest of the Laws Of Tennessee, :"
the witness thought, came down to 1889.
There was some discussion here as to the
relevancy OF the question, but it was ad-
United.
Mrs. Gov. Kirg of Kentucky, sister of
Col. King, related numerous instances in
which she believed the defendant insane.
She had told his daughter thst her father
was insane.
Maurice Sheridan, one of the witnesses
for the defense. who testified that the de-
ceased raised his hand in a threatening
manner when approached by Col. King
at the time of tie shooting, was
the first witness examined In rebuttal by
Gen. Peters. He was unable, under fire of
the cross-exami alton. to say that he had
seen the hand raised, but testified that Mr..
Poston passed him making toward Col.
King, and that he saw Col. King and Mr..
Poston have a slight alteration.
A number of witnesses from jackson,
Tenn, were introduced, whose testimony
showed that the character and reputation
for truth Of Z. L. Moore, who testified to
hearing the alteration between Mr.. Postor
and Col. King. were bad.
The court adjourned.

SAN ANTONIO, TEX, June III. C. Carr,
an old Texan. for two terms sergeant-at-
arms of the House of Representatives and
at present interested in the presentation of
Indian depreciation claims at Washington,
has returned from the Rio Graude section
and reports a singular discovery in the
center Of Edwards county. IL is known as
the Devils Sink-Holen 1t is a circular
opening six feet across and descending per-
pendicularly.
Recently it was partially explored. A
man was let down by rope $50 feet, and at
that point he found ledge from which ran
a passageway seven feet high and wide
enough for three men abreast, and running
at a steep decline. He followed it 800 feet.
and came to an immense lake of water, ice
cold. He had no means of determining its
extent, but a stone hurled with all his force
splashed in the water fully seventy yards
away.
The bauk of the lake was covered with
pieces Of rock looking as though they had
been blasted. Some were brought to the
surface, and they assayed about thirty
ounces Of silver to the ton All of that
region is rich in silver indications, and it is
supposed that the mysterious cavern is an
abandoned Spanish mine and has other exits
and entrances. Il will be thoroughly ex.
plored by competent prospectors.
