Josiah Turner, has again received bad treatment at the bands of the Demo crate in return for his faithful servi ces to his party. Mr. Davis has no reputation as a public man, that we are aware of, nd must be obscure even in his District. He must re ciye a very reluctant support, and will stand a fail chance to 4kremain at home." He will have no weight in Congress, if elected.

Hoke Democrat. Near Bald Mountain, June 10th, 1874. ML Siar ami Record A severe shock ol earthquake was again felt throughout this vicinity on last Friday.

The rumbling noise was not heard so distinctly as it was on several occasions last Spring. Prof Bradley of the East Tenn. University ith a number of students was here a few days ago The Prof, would net venture an opinion, any way. in regard, to the matter, only saying that the disturbance was either caused hy volcanic action or by the falling" of large masses of rock in the interior ot the. mountain.

If the latter theory be tiue Bald Mountain nmv soon become a lake WHicre is our State Geologist? It is remarkable that he does not visit this place, and irive us the benefit of his investigations. It is worthy of remark that all the severe shocks, during the oast few weeks, have occurred on Friday or Friday night. --r Yours, Cincinnati, May 29.

The Metropolitans made 1 1 but without mics3. Th ai'rests followed rapidily until ten persona were in custody in the office of the United States Marshal. The arrest is considered one of the most iaipor tant ever.made in the West, as it breaks up a nest of counterfeiters who have long infested this section of country and heretofore escaped punishment. A large amount of money, presses, plates, was captured. The parties are held for a Rearing, and the evidence against them is conclusive.

A num ber of other arrests will be made from the evidence obtained from these parties. OurHstilKoad. We onlv notice this matter at this juncture to call attention to a few facts conncted with it. The 21st section of the act of incor poration, ratified the 23th day of February, 1873, says "The stiid Carolina Central Railway Company shall complete the said railway to the town ot bhelbv, Cleaveland coun ty, in twelve months after the said company organizes and gets possession of said railway; neither 'shall the said company at any time aban don the. said railway from the town of Lin coirs ton to the town of Shelby." Has not the time expired? Did not said company get possession of said railroad, on or about the -30th of Maw 1873 If so, has it not forfeit ed its charter, in failing to complete the road to Shelbv, within the time hv thn or incorporation Vfe think it has.

They seem to be energetic men, ready, willing anxious, and actually endeavoriong to do, all in their power. But how they are to hold their charter when the same has been forfeited by them, we know not.
