AS TO HAIR.

AS soon as DR.. CALDWELL noticed in
the Citizen that Col. FAIRBRoTHER of
The DURHAM GLOBE had been exposed
as not having hair enough to cover the
top of his head he sent to the colonel
some hair vigor that is warranted to
make hair grow on a leather trunk. But
this will not do at all and the Citizen is
compelled to make still further
in the matter. The facts are that the
whole top of COLONEL FAIRBRorHER's
head was once shot off by Indians and
has never been just the same since! His
caput looks pretty we'll and there is a lit
tie something in it at times, but as it is,
so far as the top is concerned, aluminium,
1t is impossible that hair should grow on
it at all ever. DR.. CALDWELL means as
we'll as any man hat ever lived, but there
is no doubt he has deeply wounded
FAIRBRoTHER whose M weak point is
his lack of hair.-Asheville Citizen.
One of my township correspondents
wrote me once that he had heard a noise
in his yard the night before but paid no
attention to it, and that upon going out
that morning he was greatly mortified to
find that his mule had fallen in the well:
If the best mule on my farm had climbed
on my house last night and fallen into
the cistern | could not have been more
mortified than l am by the disclosure
made above. l perceive that l nave made
what DIR. SCoTT, of the Lenoir Topic,
calls a fox pass. In my well-meant eff
fort to WOO a second crop to the top of
Col. FA1RBRoTHER's think tank with an
apology to BILL NYE), / assumed that

ers a good editorial page. We say
this because we know what we are
talking about.
Instead of the Old Mans rot, we
hand you an able editorial by DR..
Kingsbury, of the Wilmington Mes
senger; "a Talk on Hair" by Joe
Caldwell, Of the Statesville Land
mark a very sensible and timely
article on the strength of town and
cities by Captain Sam Ashe, Of the
News and Observer, and a pert bit
of humor by Colonel F. E. Robinson,
Of the Asheville Citizen.
Our idea was to have one more,
but the gentleman whom we asked,
and who shall be nameless evermOre,
refused to even answer our request.
But no matter.
The articles IRE good, and will be
a treat to our readers.
The scheme is new and novel, and
such a symposium should be appre-
ciated and will be appreciated.
When we say the page is able
well, read it and you will say so too.

THE STRENGTH OF TOWNS.

It is to be regretted that North Carroll
ma has not enjoyed the advantages which
large cities confer upon a State. Her ur-
ban population has always been small,
and there has been but little of that asso-
citation of capital and Of business men
which is indispensably necessary forgreat
enterprises. Those men Of culture and
learning who have adorned her annals
have resided, in large measure, in seclu-
sion, and have exerted but small influence
on society, while the men of affairs who
have lived in her towns have not been
able to carry forward great undertakings.
Thus neither literature nor manufactures
have f1ourished with us as in other com.
munities where circumstances were more
favorable to their development. While
we nave had strong men-oratOrs, states
men; ~jurists, men of great learning united
with uncommon parts men of wealth
and business capacity-yet, because of
the unfortunate condition to which we
have alluded, they have not achieved as
much for the State-in any department.
as men of no greater ability have accom-
plished in other communities. Believing
that the progress of our people has thus
been retarded, il is with much satisfac-
ton that we observe a change in their
disposition, and that they seek the towns
which are all increasing in population
and Importance. The wealth of Will
mington is now equal to any reasonable
enterprise, and that Of Raleigh, Durham,
Winston, Charlotte and Asheville is be-
ing rapidly augmented, while each town
has become a centre of culture and re-
finement. Indeed every town is putting
IN strength. This is a happy change
and if occupation can be furnished in the
towns for the people, we may expect our
urban population to receive large addi-
tons with the best results for the pro-
gress and prosperity of the State. To
this end we should multiply our local in
dustries and extend our manufactures,
fostering the growth of the cities, paving
the way for higher literary excellence,
finer social culture, and an easier associa-
ton of capital without which individual
enterprise will be unable to accomplish
much for the development Of our indus
tries. S. A. AsHE.

only the top sail was gone, and that by
careful sub soiing and manuring, at least
as much hair could be raised as would be
needed by the widow FAIRBRoTHER for
a hand hold. l really did not know that
the Noble Red Man had been there be-
fore me; and though the fertilizer | sent
last week was believed with my tears
and accompanied by my prayers and was
truly tagged and fully up to the analysis,
and though it asks q leather trunk no
odds, and though JUDGE FULLER will
any minute give a certificate that it was
what cured him, | have never claimed
for it that it would cause aluminium to
fructify, and to be candid | don't believe
it will. Col. FAIRBRoTHER is therefore
requested, with an apology and a regret,
to accept the vigor, not for use, and this
statement of facts, not for publication,
but both merely as guarantees of good
faith. j. +. CALDWELL.
P. S. | have never tried it for wounded
sensibilities but since mailing this letter
it has occurred to me to say that if you
would apply a few drops over the region
where the hair is it would do you good.

MY DEAR

l had no other thought when I got
your letter the other day than to comply
with your request. 1t would have given
me pleasure to have written the most
brilliant editorial THE GLOBE ever had,
But after being at home i'll with the asth-
ma for three days and struggling hard
until late last night | found that there
was no help in me. If the divine aff1atus
should yet attack me l will send you the
result and after carefully disinfecting it
you might try it on the devil if you have
one of especially heroic mould.

THE VALE OF ROSES.
,omewhere hid In lands of sun,

Somewhere hid IN lands of sun.
Lies the Vale of Roses:
Where of golden seasons spun.
The golden ear uncloses.
Between the rose flushed peaks and skies
The hidden valley hidden lies,
And happy he whose mortal eyes
Shall see the Vale of Roses.
Seward from the mountains high.
Slopes the Vale Of Roses;
Lazy sails go drifting by
Where the vista closes.
Never stormy wind may roar
Round the placid lower shore
Silence reigns for evermore
In the Vale OF Roses
Long dim aisles Of roses shine
Up the Vale of Roses;
Scarlet flowers load the vine,
Where the palm reposes.
Oft the Persian minstrel filings
Wilder music on his strings,
AS upon the plains he sings
OF the Vale Of Roses.
Sweet the story is to hear
OF the Vale Of Roses;
But the heart that holds it dear
On its secret closes.
Not to eastern lands alone
Is the tabled valley known
Every CLINE has for its own
Some fair Vale of Roses.
Heights that lie just out Of reach
These are Wales of Roses:
Longing never set in speech
In each heart reposes.
Every soul its vale has sought,
Glimpses of it's beauty caught,
And is nobler for the thought
OF the Vale Of Roses.

The WHIP SCORPION.
A venoneas Insecs Which Freqasnts
Mexico.

A vene.e.s Insecs Which Freqasnts
Mexico.
Mexico and other Central American
countries are afflicted with q remark-
able number of the scorpion family,
locally known by the various names OF
''scruncher," devils bull driver" or
whip scorpion" The scientific de-
scription of this branch of poisonous
insect states, says the St Louis Repub-
lie, that they have an elongated body,
divided into segments, the last six Of
which are Of equal size The tail is
flexible and ends in sting. The ehel.
icora, or fangs, are short and end in q
pincher-hke appendage- The jaw ap-
pendages, olpalpi, are also finished like
perfect forceps- Respiration is effect
ed by two pairs Of pulmonary sacs,
which communicate with the air
through four openings.
A curious thing to be noticed about
the whip scorpion is that the poisonous
fangs above referred to take the place
of harmless feelers or antenuA, such as
are found In beetles, butterflies, moths,
ete A cognate change is remarked
In spiders, In whom the antennB are
replaced by poisonous jaws The an
terror pairs OF legs Of the whip scorpion
are also peculiar. They are much thin
ner than the others and the feet arc
many -jointed, 50 as to be capable of
being used as flexible organs Of touch;
so, you see, this ugly-looking beast has
turned his feelcrs into poisonous jaws
and his feet into feelers. The "whip"
of the whip scorpion consists Of thin,
vicious-looking tail, which. when angry,
the scorpion lashes about In q surpris-
ing manner.
