last Monday, 28 years ago, our little village waj o-ver-ri'iden by Gen. Stoneman and his immense army of marauders, and in their wake they left a number of our citizens in death'scold embrace. During that eventful day and nignt it is said umr tmrvv thousand men passed lure, taking nearly all of our citi zens prisoners. Mr. Clay whohas beenintliH Democrat office for several months, did nor leave last week as we stated, but left yesterday moruing for his home in Iredell.

It is safe to bay that no i)oy who has ever stayed in our town has left behind him more friends than Clay has, ami tney hope to see him back a-gain. Up to this writing, there is no definite news aa to who ill oe Marshal and Collector for the Western District of North Carolina, but we venture the asseition that Allison, of Iredell has already been appointed as Marshal, and that Gudger, of Asheville, wii1 be appointed as Collector as soon as his 'turn comes. The Boone ar.d Blowing Hock turn pike survey was completed by Mr. Kelsey on yesterday, and he pronounced the grade equally as good if not better, than the Yonna-lostse, from Linville to Blowing Hook.

From liihrltcn. N. C. Lditoi IhnnK-rnt: For somejtime I have w.at ed to wiite something for the Dk.Mocij.vt, but this and Ii it have prevented, ami now- I find news of a general interest scarce. For some time the weather has been dry.

but cool. We a some snow flume recently. but warm now with showers to-d 13'. Farmers are busy preparing 11 land, and planting will begin early in April. A large crop will be planted.

The hind, since the hard freezing in the winter, breaks well and prom is. a good crop. Gardening is go in0, forward well, onions, potatoes, lettuce, mustard etc. having been planted.

iVach trees are beginning to bloom, hope we will with a good fruit crop, though Home ppo p'e claim that Ihe peaches are already killed in the Grain and I'e for slock ar-rather more plentiful here than usual at this season of. the year. Our school at lli- briteti is prospering, and maintain a good enrollment to the end of the session which will be the 19th of May. Al ready preparations are being mad for theclosingeierciscs.

Shall we not look for the Editor of the to put an appearance along wuh Atry's Coffey, nd For the first time in several years, Caldwell will have a liomoeide trial, Lingweil ior killing nki 1st fall. It is generally believed to have been a justifiable homocide, but no one can foretell what will be developed trial. Our Sheriff informs rue he will have to advertise more land for taxes first Monday in April this year than last. Money is very scarce here and is bound to remain so for some time to come.

There is very little of anything to sell, yet our people havesomj openings to earn money that the people of Watauga have not. There is some demand here lumber, shingles, cross ties etc. Then there are a number of manufact ur-ing interests which give employment to hands at some price or other. Again there is considerable to a grown in parts of this county which brings in some money though the price is low now. Hev.
