Quoting a large barter trade, it being the point
where a large portion of the Flour and other pro-
duce of Wake and Chatham reaches the Rail
Road. The House is IL by Al feet, with 8 con-
veniently arranged rooms below and a Masonic
Hall above. There is also a good turnout and
warehouse at the Rail Road, a daily mail, all to-
gether afording every facility for a largo business
0rif desired by the right kind of a man, one
who would make a good neighbor and not sell
whiskey, I would cell $50 acres of land with the
Store House, on which is two or three beautiful
building sites nearthe Rail Road.

NY ABSENT SISTER.-BY W. J., OF u.
Ny sister now IL far away
Yet In the ideal world view l
Her rosy cheeks, her jetty locks,
Her grocian nose, her bright blue eye.
But when I call, alas she's gone,
The truthful echo tells me SOL
And when her ruby lips I'd press,
kiss the air and nothing mere.
In vain for her / seek,
Beneath yon shadowy treej
Beside the sea girt shore,
Or Ger the HoWery lea,
No longer my evening stroll
Is by her presence cheered;
No more with my morning song
Il her silvery voice now heard.
She's gone, alas she's from me gone;
No more her footsteps fall ! hear
And as / write my eyes grow moist,
For I sigh that she Is not near.
