THE AI. If I Ml.
There is so much of beauty aid ar
tistic excellence in the February num
ber of the Aldine, no lover of the line
arts can well afford to allow it to remain
a closed boo :. The promise held out
for the New Y'ear, in the Januaay num
ber, of a volume of surpassing worth
and taste, is sustained in this i -suo. A
dozen beautiful pictures embellish its
pages, more than half of which are
original American views. Mr. W. M.
Cary has a spirit full-page picture of
“ Antelope-Hunting on the Plains;”
the hounds are in full pursuit of a herd
of deer, which arc coursing like the
wind over the foot-hills at the base of
the Rocky Mountains. Mr. John
Llows has a series of five pictures, which
ho drew- last summer in the lovely re
gion of the famous Juniata River in
Pennsylvania. One of these is a grand
and massive whole page picture, repre
senting “ The Juniata River, near
Huntingdon, Pa.,” showing a deep cut
tlir.au gi the rocks on the Pennsylvania
Central i tail road. Two large compan
ion pieces, full of the feeling and aunos-
pherc of oat-of-doors, give the beholder
v. i; 1 and rugged views of the inlet and
' .Ret of “Sinking Spring,” a river
which flows for a mile under the mount
ains Two other charming sketches, full
of beautiful water, cloud, and foliage
CiFmiS.; are sketches of the river—
“ Lewistown Narrows,” and “Juniata
River near LouiGown.” No fiaGr ser.es
of pictures of American scenery has <
ever been published. Mr. John S. Da
vis contributes a characteristic sketch of
the village “ ne’er-do-well,’’ “ An Idle
Do".” which is true to life, as well as
being graceful in pose and composition.

greyhounds, “ Gentlemen of Leisure,
and a Ginderella,” is one of those fairy
like pictured, after Dijeunc, represent

information Wanted.
Editor Times We understand that
none of the numerous peddlers that are
roving^fchrough our county, tormenting
our wives and running our daughters
crazy about sewing machines, have
taken out license. A fellow* told us
that they all had to get a license from
our Ordinary, and that if he took no
action reducing the price they had to
pay fifty dollars for the same; and that
section 529 of the new code said so. —
The same fel ow said that section 533
of the new code says that “ If any per
son, except a disabled soldier of this
State, peddles without first obtaining
such license in counties where the Or
dinaries take no action regulating, he
forfeits to the county one hundred dol
lars for the first act of peddling, and
for each month thereafter twenty-five
dollars.” The same fellow*, toM us fur
ther that section 53G of the new code
says that if the Ordinary, of his ow T n
knowledge knew of a violation of sec
tion 533, that it was his duty to issue a
process, and have the forfeit collected.
Now, Mr. Editor, you arc a newspa
per man, live at our county seat, and*
propose to make your living by giving
us information : will, you be so kind as
tia ascertain and answer through your
valuable paper, first if the Ordinary
has taken any action as provided by
law, regulating peddling in Gordon
county '{
Second, llow many peddlers have
taken out license within the last year ?
We suppose you can get this infor
mation readily by reference to the min
utes of (he Ordinary’s Court, and the
bonk kept to record licenses in.
Also v please publish sections 529,
s.and 536 of the new code in full,
that we may know if that fellow told
us the truth.
Mr. Editor, we call on you for this
information, because we have been
taking your paper since its first number,
and paid the last cent we owed for sub
scription on the first of January, inst.,
and have no other means so accessible
to obtain such information reliably.
Subscribers.
In reply to the above questions we
will say that, according to our version
of the law touching the subject, each
peddler, except disabled soldiers, is re
quired to take out license in a county
before he can lawfully run his business
in said county. If our Ordinary has
taken any action regulating peddling,
we are not aware of it; and in regard
to how many peddlers have taken out
license, we pre not in possession of in
formation that will enable us to give an
answer, and we do not feel like making
it a special business of ours to examine
hL- books to find out; but, as the ques
tion sprung is certainly one that inter
ests tax-payers and voters, our Ordina
ry. whom we look upon as a gentleman
of integrity, upas reading the above
communication, should feel called upon
to give the information desired —for
which our columns are at his disposal—
and satisfy the curiosity of those so
anxious to look after the interests of
the county.
As above requested, we publish in
full the sections of the code referred to.
They arc as follows :
Section 529. Retail licenses, exhibi
tionetc. The county charges fur such
licenses are as follows : To retad spir
it u us liquors, 815 00 ; to sell spiritu
ous liquors, not by retail, in quantities
less than one.gallon, 85 00 ; to peddle
within the county, unless otherwise pro
vided by the Ordinary under the law,
850 00 ; to exhibit shows with horses,
810 00; to exhibit animals, beast and
the like, 810 00 ; to exhibit any pic
'.ure or figures. $5 00; to exhibit any
other show, not less than 85 00, nor
more th ,n 825 00, as the Ordinary may
order; to exhibit theatricals or musical
entertainments, for’profits to the pro
prietor,-nr,t more than 05 00 on each
exhibition, and subject to contract with
the Court.
Bee. 533. PmVtlng icithout license.
if any person, except a disabled soldier
of this State, peddles without first ob
taining license in counties where the
Ordinaries take no action regulating
peddling, he forfeits to the county one
hundred dollars for the act of peddling,
and. tor each month thereafter twenty
iivo dollars more.
Fee. 536. 1 i'.latrms, how punished.
If any Ordinary,'of his own knowledge,
knows of tiie violation of the foretrointr
Three s -c«ons, or ; i any person will make
affidavit of such fact, it is the duty of
•he “vverai Ordinaries of this State, un
-1 ss they kn -vv to the contrary, to issue
a process directed to all and singular
the sheritis and constables of this, for
the amount of such forfeit, command

fendant to satisfy the same ami costs,
and to levy and sell the same as in case

The last La Grange lleoorter, under
the head of “ Legislative Trifling,” has
the following :
“As usual, the Legislature is wasting
a great deal of its time over personal
and local hills. For instance, a Senator
introduces a bill to allow James Fricks,
a minor, to do business on his account.
This precocious youth, by reason of
having so much friction in his compo
sition, cannot wait till he is of lawful
age to do business but must have an
act passed by the Legislature to let him
do business now The whole State bus
iness must stand still, and time worth
several hundred dollars must bo con
sumed to authorize little Jimmy Fricks
to sell ginger-cakes, goobers, sardines
and paper collars, from behind a coun
ter just like a little man. It matters
not whether a constitutional convention
is held, or whether the lien law is re
pealed or the usury law restored ; it.
matters nut what becomes of the public
interests, so James Fricks is made a
man before his time comes.”
We presume the Reporter man makes
a mistake and intended the above to
apply to a local bill introduced by the
Representative from Gordon, Col. R.
M. l T oun<r, and if it don’t raise the Col
onel’s feathers, we are mistaken one
time.
An Outrage tn Minnesota.—
Elevan poor straggling Swedes, settled
upon the prairies some two hundred
miles from St. Paul, were recently drag
ged from their homes for the enormous
alleged offense of cutting a few brush
on public binds, to keep their families
from perishing of cold. On examina
tion they we e discharged and turned
pennyless into the stieets to make tlieu
way home as best they could, without
even apology—much less reparation.—
A few days previous to this grand spasm
of official virtue, a pine land ring, in
volving hundreds of thousands of acres
which belonged to Indians, went through
the farce of investigating themselves.
The guilty operators, after whitewash
ing each other, were feasted, toasted,
dined and wined and finally went off
with flying colors at public expense.—
It is a shocking crime for a few wretch
ed and suffering pioneers to cut a lit
tle wood to keep them from freezing,
but the sum of virtue is to swindle the
St ato and its Indian tribes out of count
less millions of feet of forest— /St. Paul

And now an old woman in the coun
ty of Durham, England, 81 yeais
of age, of the name of Brigham, thinks
that Brigham Young is her husband,
who deserted her and her children and
disappeared from England forty years
ago. It appears that her husband
Bvigl lam was the natural son of a man
named Young and a woman named
Brigham ; that after the young man’s
marriage he proved to be anything but
a devoted husband and father; that he
worked some time in London as a coop
er under the name of William Brig
ham. and that lie left London and his
wife and children to join the Mormons
in America. This man would be now
in the 76th year of his age, and the
ancient dame evidently believes that
President Brigham Young of the Lat
ter Day Saints of Utah, is her long-lost
husband.
A young man who had come into
possession of a large property by the
death of his brother was asked how he
was getting along. “ Oh,” said he, “ [
ain having a dread f if! time with getting
out letters of administration, attending
Probate Court and. c- llectiug insurance
claims. I sometimes wish he hadn’t
died.’'

Three Prisoners Burned to Death in
North Carolina Jail.
On Wednesday night, about 11
o’clock, our citizens were aroused from
their slumbers by the ringing of the
Court House hell, and soon it was dis
covered that the Jail was on fire. Im
mediately a large concourse gathered
around the building and made the most
strenuous exertions to extinguish the
flames, which was soon found to be a
fruitless undertaking from the fact that
the jailer was absent with the keys, and
it was impossible to gain entrance into
the building. Axes were then brought
into requisition, and the outer door was
soon demolished, and attempts made to
rescue the prisoners confined in the
dungeon. The door of the dungeon
was also locked, and the key not to be
found ; and soon the smoke became so
dense and suffocating that it drove ev
ery one from the entrance, and two
helpless mortals were left to their doom.
Efforts were then made to save the re
maining prisoners on the upper floor,
in which were confined two colored men
and one colored woman, and after a good
deal of labor the bars of the window
were broken and the two men rescued.
The woman being confined in a sepa
rate room on the opposite side, and be
sides being sick, could not move or
render any assistance whatever, and no
doubt was suffocated. r i he groans and
cries of the poor beings appealing for
assistance were pitiful, and will Ion" he
remembered. The flames of the pris
oners burnt were Bob Dunktan, Simon
Buddie, and Susan Epps, all held for
stealing. From the accounts given by
one of the rescued prisoners it seems
that the jail was purposely set on fire
by Robert Dunetati in order to make
his escape.

patch from Greenesboro, North Caroli

deaths of the Siamese Twins on Satur
day m ruing hist at their residence at
Mount Airy, Surrey county, N. C. —
There are no details further than the
fact, that Chang was paralyzed, last fall,
since which time he had been fretful,
very much debilitated, and strongly ad
dicted to drink as a means of alleviat
ing his sufferings. lie had been quite
feeble for several days, indred so much
so as to confine both brothers to bed ;
but their illness was not so great as to
cause any anticipation of the catastro
phe that was to follow, On Fr day
night they retired to bed as usual, but
during the night Chang became worse,
and expired suddenly at about 4 o’clock
Saturday morning.
As soon as it was discovered that
Chang was dead Eng became so terribly
shocked that he raved wildly for awhile,
at times exhibiting signs of great men
tal abberration. This attack was fol
lowed by what seemed to be a deadly
stupor. In two hours, it is supposed,
from the death of Chang, Eng breathed
his last.

Automatic Telegraph. —some of
the reports that have leaked out about
an autographic telegraph just patented
in Washington, but withheld from pub
licity until patented in other countries,
ultimate an improvement that must be
very convenient, and sometimes exceed
ingly so, and may lead to a radical
change in telegraphing. The principle
is apparently analogous to that discover
ed by a Mr. Bakcwcli. in England, sev
eral years ago, and that has been em
ployed with imperfect success in France
—perhaps elsewhere. At each station,
a cylinder is attached to the transmit
ting and receiving instrument. The
manuscript to be sent is wrapped around
one and instantly duplicated on the
other, no matter how distant. The
process is almost an equivalent of pho
tography, and is instantaneous. It is
perceptible at a glance that the long dis
patches now sent at so much cost, could
be forwarded by this means as cheaply
as the shortest, as they would occupy no
more time nor any more labor.

The original pictures were painted in oil for

purchased by Congress for ten thousand dol

These ehroc cs arc >n every sense Ameri

manufacture, from designs of American sce
oery by an American painter, and presented
tn subscriber to the first successful Ameri
can Art Journal. If no better
this, they will certainly possess an interest
no foreign production can inspire, and nei
ther are they any the worse if by reason of
peculiar facilities of production they cost the
publishers only a trifle, tekile equal in every
respect to of he. chromos that are sold singly sot
double the subscription price of TUB ALLIS E.
Persons of taste will prize these pictures for
themselves—not for the price they did or
