Mr. B3arron is a North Carolinian, but has been prosecuting his studies in the office of Col. J. H1. [Rion, at this place. THEn DAVI'sS SEwINO MACIINE.-At tention ,is directed to the advertisement of Mr. J. 0. Boag, setting forth the merit of the Davis Vertical Feed Sow ing Machine, for which he is the agent for Fairfld. This machine has bcen extensively sold in this county, and has given universal satisfaction. A Scuiooa Tax.-The trustees of this school district have issued a call for a meeting to consider the question of a local tax, in accordance with an act passed by the Legislature. The act has not been published, but its p)rovisions are about as follows: A school district shall be laid off four miles square, have the court-house as a centre, and having its sides respec * ively parallel with the corporate limits of the to wn. The county comn missioners also erect this into a town ship for' convenience in listing prop erty. The law further provides that * on the written request of three proper ty-holders, the trustees each year, be fore June, shall, after one week's notico, call a meeting of those citizens who return real or personal property within the limits of the district. This meeting shall elect a chairman and secretary, and may levy a tax not ox ceeding a mill and a half, for school pur poses. If a levy be made, notice of it must be given to the audhitor, who shall assess it, and thme treasurer shall collect. The diff'erence between the new law and the old local tax lawv'is that by the former every voter had the right to vote. But as no extra tax can be levied on polls, the present law allows only those affected by the tax to toto on it. This bill attracted favorable at tention In the Legislature, and a 1)111 having the same provisions was intro duced to aply to all towns, but was laid over till next session for want of time. We hope there wlU be a full turnont of all parties interested. The levy of etich a tax aflbrds 'the best mansa of 1nanrine a goodl snhool.
