ACTIVITY DURING THE FIRST
WEEK OF 1891.

The Manufacturers Record of
January 10th, 1891, says that the
opening week of the new year shows a
surprisingly long list of new enter
prises reported in the South, especially
when it is remembered that this is gen.
orally a season of inactivity which
business men devote to settlement of
old affairs rather than to the inaugu-
ration of new ventures. Special
reports to the Manufacturers Record
show the final closing of contracts for
building two 5000 ton iron steam
ships, to cost S1,2oo,ooo, at Newport
News, Va; the organization of a COM
pany with paidup capital of 81 ,ooo,-
900 to build a cotton mill in Mlssis-
sippi; 100000 gold mining COM
pany and 100000 marble quarrying
company in North Georgia a $780,
900 coal mining company in Kanawha
county, w. Va; 100000 lumber
company and $4,000 cooperage
company at Brunswick, Ga. "a 100000
wagon factory company and a $780,
900 rolling mill company at Salem,

this record Of the leading enterprises
reported for the first week in 1891, this
brief summary indicates widespread
activity and bright prospects for the
year.

The Best Agricultural journal
In The South.

The Southern Planter, with the January
issue, enters upon the fifty-second year of
its publication. During this long period
(the longest OF ally agricultural journal
in the United States, with one exception)
the Planter has always striven to place
before the farmers of the Southern States
the methods and systems of cultivation
and management OF the farm best calcu-
lated to advance the interests of the far:
mer. Since it passed into the hands of
the present Company, eighteen months
ago, it has been doubled in size and re-
duced in price, and under the editorship
of Mr.. J. F. Jackson himself a practical
farmer of twenty five years experience
has increased its circulation more than
threefOld. 1t is the aim and intention OF
the Company to make it second to none
and to increase its circulation until it
shall be the largest in the country. With
, the assistance of the large staff of con-
/ tributors numbering amongst them regu-
larry the Commissioner of Agriculture,
the Director of the Experiment Station;
Professor Massey, OF the North Carolina
j Experiment Station, Colonel H. NJ. Ma
gruder, OF the Blacksburg Experiment
+ Station, and the numerous practical far
! mers of Virginia. and North Carolina who
use it's columns for the dissemination of
their opinions and experiences, there
should be no difficulty in attaining this
end. Every farmer in Virginia and the
adjoining States ought to take it, The
editorial, "Work for the Month" in each
Number is alone worth to every farmer
more than the dollar which the journal
costs for one year. The January num-
Der contains articles from most OF the
gentlemen above named, and is only a
fair sample of each issue Whilst not the
official organ OF the Alliance, it is in har-
mony with the principles of that organi-
zation. and, by the courtesy of the Presi-
dent, publishes all the Official notices of
that body. Address the Southern Planter,

The GOLD LEAF wants to see our
people lay greater stress upon the i'm
portance of making the attractions
and advantages of this section better
known abroad. We want men and
money from a distance to come in and
help in the grand work of develop
ment, but we do nothing to get them.
Other communities are moving in the
matter and not without good results.
Then why may we not? One hun
dred dollars spent in advertising our
town in the manufacturing journals,
would be worth thousands of dollars
in showing up the advantages Of soil,
climate, and natural resources which
we possess, together with the fine OPP
portunities offered for the establish
ment of manufactures of various kinds.
Capital is looking around for invest
ment, and the columns Of the leading
manufacturing journals of the country
are now being studied with more than
ordinary interest. In the language OF
the poet, "Let US then be up and do
ing" without learning to wait While
we are waiting other towns are going
ahead securing the prizes.

SAYS the Wilmington Messenger:
Poor old Mr.. Hoar is bowed with a
great sorrow. His dear, darling Bay
onet bill received some terrible gashes
from the Radical brethren in the Senate
and the old man mourneth. The
Philadelphia Times solemnizes the
hour with this pathetic quatrain:
Ring the bell softly, there's Grape on the
door;
Trials and troubles will cross it no more.
Buried In sorrow in Hoar's narrow breast,
His heart its sole tombstone, the Force
bills at rest
Again the Times drops into rhyme
on the same subject. 1t says:
"Not drum was heard, nor G funeral note,
AS the corpse to its lone grave they
hurried,
And even poor HOar couldn't fire last
shot,
Ger the spot where the Force bill was
buried"

In starting upon the new year let us
all turn over a new leaf and determine
to work harder than ever before for
Henderson during 1891. The growth
OF the town is largely dependent upon
the efforts of its citizens. Don't be
afraid to talk for your town, but do
not expend all your energy in talk
aIone-that has been too largely our
fault in the past. Mix it judiciously
with elbow grease, and put your mon
ey where it will do good. That is the
way to build up prosperous towns and
communities.

THE BANK OF HENDERSON.


As will be seen by reference to the
notice published in another column,
the Bank of Henderson has enlarged
its capital and abilities by taking in as
an additional party in interest, and as
its vice president, Mr.. Josiah Howe
Vose, late Of Boston, Mass.
This information is subject OF
double congratulatlon: First, the
people of Henderson have reason 10
congratulate themselves in having as
an addition to their community 4
gentleman of extensive acquaintance in
banking, having been an officer OF five
years experience in one of the largest
National Banks OF the country; and it
speaks well for the attractions OF our
climate and the good impressions that
our people make upon a stranger that
Mr.. Vose should have decided to make
his home among US. And, secondly,
Mr. Vose is to be congratulated that
he is associated in business with an in
stitution that was the first of its kind
to be established in our town, and for
eight years has commanded the entire
confidence and liberal patronage of
our people; and doubtless under the
new management and enlarged taCili
ties at the command of the Bank, en-
abling it to grant most liberal accom-
modations to its customers, this pat
ronage will be more freely bestowed
than ever, as assuredly it ought to be.
For the information of those who
did not have the pleasure OF meeting
Mr.. Vose and his accomplished sister,
who spent month or more with us
last fall, attracted to the town by its
unrivalled climate, the subjoined in
formation will be of interest:
Mr.. Vose was born in the State of
Massachusetts, and completed his edu-
cation at Brown University. Shortly
after graduation he selected banking
as his profession and has pursued it
ever since. His great grand father was
Il General in the Revolutionary war
and served under Washington. Gen
eral Vose was one of the founders of
the society of Tie CInfinnahs On
his mothers side Mr. Vose traces back
to Benjamin Franklin.

guilty. He was tried for the killing OIL
negro named Jones, while attempt

killing was done in self-defence. The
action Of the Justice before whom the

the officer for trial by a higher cour,
created great surprise at the time as i,
was clearly shown that he had done
the killing in self-defence.

Shearing Sheep by Electricity.

SpleciaL Correspondence Of ire Gold Leaf.
The latest and one of the most hu-
name and labor saving machines is a
recent invention for shearlng sheep.
The animals are driven into the machine
by means of V shaped entrance adj
hitting one at time through the open
end, when it is stripped of its jacket in
a twinkling by little fingered clippers
on spring arms that fit every part and
limb by pressure, down to the tail which
is also shaven, and the fleece in one solid
roll from nose to tail is taken off alike
from the largest to the smallest without
a scratch of the skin, just as fast as
they dan be driven through-five or six
minute. They come through like
cobs from corn shelter and seem
perfectly amazed at the operation. One
old horny fellow was so completely as
tonishcd that he refused to get out of
the way but turned and looked at the
others coming through-as much as to
say whats that anyway?' The en-
tire machine is in 4 case four feet wide,
eight feet long by four and half deep,
and is operated by electricity. 1t can
be loaded and unloaded into wagon
like a piano box, set down and 60 to
work anywhere without preliminaries
or fixing. The whole plant cost
$250.O0 and will last almost as long as
taken care Of The cost Of shearing
sheep by this machine is one cent each.
BY the old hand process it is six cents
with the fleece hacked and great pieces
of skin fayed from the poor dumb thing
that is as truly barbarous, often coming
to death.
Four hands can average a thousand
sheep day. do all the herding and keep
the wool assorted and piled away.
Properly speaking it is a "wool GIN
kthat gins the wool off the sheep as a
