the intense cold, the electricity in the at
| mosphere becomes luminous by flowing
| over the tiny particles
1t may be taken rs conclusive that the
Aurora is some sort OF an electric dis
charge; there is much discussion and
doubt as to the origin of the electricity.
| The nearest reasonable hypothesis is
| that of De la Rive, say the authorities,
| who declares that the Aurora is an cleo
trio discharge between the magnetic
poles OF the earth, leaving the vicinity
of the North magnetic pole in the form OF
clouds OF electrified matter which float
toward the South Pole through the at
mosphere at a height of forty miles or
more from the earth, and while they are
thus moving forward, bright streams OF
electricity are from time to time shot out
from them, observable only under cert ain
exceptional conditions
Aurora appear most frequently ObOut
every ten or eleven years, and this peri
ode appearance of Aurora in conjunc-
ton with the appearance of spots on the
sun, has excited Investigations, and sci
ence concludes that there is some con-
nection between the two (there is an i'm
mense and unusual spot on the sun at
this tlme), and out of this grows the
theory that Aurora are caused by di-
rect flow of electricity from the sun
The only remaining theory is, that the
Aurora is caused by clouds of ferrugi-
nous meteoric dust, which is ignited by
friction with the atmosphere, but the sci
entists declare that though this theory
is plausible, it is not sound
All the writer's on the subject OF the
Aurora Borealis confess that its causes
are very imperfectly explained, insisting,
however, that it will be found as science
progresses that the same causes that
produce hurricanes in the solar at
mosphere thrill sympathetically to the
furthest planets of our system, in waves
not only of light and heat but of mag
netism and electricity.

GEO. A. SHUFORD, of Asheville, has
been appointed by Gov. Holt to fill
out the unexpired term Of Judge James
H. Merrimon, resigned. He is the
fellow who, while Judge Of the Infe
rior Court of Buncombe county some
years ago, fined the editors of the
Asheville Citizen for alleged contempt
of his court. They INDUCED in a bit
of sarcasm in connection with a case
at issue before him. 1t appears that
it was sort of piCayune affair and the
jury was hung. In abiding to it the
Citizen in a bit of humor said it would
be good thing if the judge, jury,
prosecuting attorney and all were
hung, or words to that effect, at which
the sensitive feelings of his Honor were
SO outraged that the publishers, Messrs.
Furman, Stone and Cameron, were
prosecuted for contempt as above
stated. His appointment is favorably
commented on by those who know
him and gives satisfaction to his friends.

STEPHEN y, POOL. JR.

home in New Orleans, mas been an
n0unccd. He was managing editor Of
tire IiWrs-Drmotrat, probably the
leading newspaper III the South, po-
sition which he had held tor some
wears and filled with signal ability.
The Times Democrat pays beautiful
touching and graceful tribute to the
deceased gentleman, in which are por-
trayed the qualities Of a noble life. /;
says:
Mr.. Pool was man Of liberal in
tellectual endowments, which he cul-
tivated and improved by extensive
reading, and usually wide and keen
observation = There was not a
subject known to modern journalism
that he was not an fat, and his range
of accurate information. particularly
in State ard national politics, was
perhaps Unprecedented. He was far
seeing in his views Of events, calm in
his judgments, and prompt in his de
cisions OF the beauty and
sweetness Of Mr.. Pools moral nature,
none but those who have been thrown
in close contact with him can have
anything like an adequate idea. He
was one of the most lovable of men
in whose mind there never entered
mean or malicious thought, whose
breast never harbored the shadow of
grudge against human being. He
was amiable and tender of heart al
most to womanliness; lively and joyous
in his disposition, with a strong sense
of humor in himself and appreciative
of it in others. y = He was pure,
clean soul, that knows no abasement
at the foot of the great white throne.

POINTING A MORAL.

The custom our people have Of de-
pending upon the North and West for
many OF the things they should make
or raise themselves is one great draw
back to their greater prosperity. Too
much Of their meat, flour, grain, hay,
oats, farming implements, furniture,
&c, are of foreign growth or manu-
faCture. Too many of their horses and
mules are raised in Tennessee and Ken
lucky. These thoughts are suggested
anew by the following article from the
Greensboro U0ykman:
80 Just arrived-two car loads of
Kentucky and West Virginia horses
and mules which will be sold Cheap
This is the wording of an ADVERTISE
ment in the New Berne Journal, but
what long story is told in this brief
paragraph. A story with a moral by
which the agriCulturists of North Car
DINA with her splendid climate: with
her acres and acres of agricultural and
grazing lands; with her rich stores of
succulent grasses which the far-famcd
blue grass of Kentucky even can not
surpass; North Carolina, with her far
mers who should study their own in
| terests, buying horses and mules from
kentucky and West Virginia.
Do you want to know why, when
low prices for cotton and tobacco
come, you are so hard pressed for
money? The reason is plainly to be
seen. You send too much money out
of the State for what can and should
/ be raised right here
For sale cheap, What is cheap
The kentucky and West Virginia
/ farmer makes a profit on his stock or
else he would not sell; the railroad
transportation must be paid; the mid
dleman or advertiser makes his profit,
and yet they are sold cheap. %
When Will the farmers of this State
wake up to their own interests and
raise their own horses and stock. be-
sides enough to clear them 4 neat
profit, when sold in cities where there
IS always a demand for good animals
Many farmers of Kentucky make
4 business OF fine stock raising and &C
Qulre competence thereby. We do
not advise YOU TO make it an exclusive
business. but we do say that the pro-
ducts OF your farm will bring you 4
larger prof, in the way Of horses and
stock than in any other way just now.
Kentucky horses are known the
world over, and Kentucky farmers are
independent. The same may be true
OF North Carolina if the farmers will
consult their own interests and turn
their attention in that direction.

THE CORRECT WAY TO FARM.

The farmer who makes his supplies
at home is the one who is on the safe
side always. Tobacco and cotton may
be partial failure, or the prices may
be ruinously low, but he is independ-
ent and can live without having to get
some one to "run him" until another
crop is made. We like to know Of
farmers who live at home The Louis
burg Times alludes to several farmers
in its county who, while raising some
cotton, also raised more food supplies
than they would need, with much to
spare. These gentlemen, notWlth-
standing the low price of cotton, were
out Of debt and were therefore COM
Portable. Suppose every farmer in the
State who raises either cotton or to-
bacco, had his smokehouses and barns
full of food supplies, how much better
off they would be to-day. This but
illustrates the advantages that must
follow the course recommended by
the farmers in the cotton belt to raise
less cotton and full food supplies. Will
the recommendation be followed :,
however?
