now TO DO 1T.

In the good old days before tho
war, there lived in the good old State
Of North Carolina, a very good old
gentleman, who rcioiccd in the own
ership of some three hundred slaves
and the possession Of some 10000
acres Of land. He had also many
cows and asses, and, what is better
perhaps than all, his nOddlc was
very largely filled with good old
hard dorSc sense. This good old gen
tlcman Of course had a very snug ia
come and though he had pretty
daughters who were gay and spent
money, and sons who were fond Of n
frolic, and had, himself, Il decided
relish tor good old peach and honey,
yet he managed every year that roll
ed over his head to hide away Il
good pile of glittering gold against
a rainy day. This old gentleman
lived near tide-water, and it came
to pass, during the progress Of the
war, that n Yankee "army with ban
nera" paid him a visit. When they
| departed, all his slaves, including
piccaninnios and any, departed with
them; and the old gentlemans sill
YER spoons and his daughters rich
silk dresses and icwcIry also disap-
peared. And his numerous stock
Of horses, mules, cows and asses went
the same way. His heaps of gilt
tering gold, provided against a
rainy day, were, however, not found,
and they still remained with the
good old gentleman. 1t came to
pass, after time, that the war
ceased, and the land was no longer
troubled with those who stole silver
spoons and carried ofrncgroes, mules
and asses. But then this good Old
gentleman found himself in posses
sion OF Il ruined estate, without la
borcrs to drive or animals to pull
the plow Hisjands had sunk in
value until they were considered
not worth having Now, what did
our good old friend do? lie walked
not the porticoes ofhis stately man
sion cursing the Yankees and sigh
ing over milk that was split. This
good old North Carolina gentleman
went to work he employed survey
ors with log ard chain, ana carpen-
tcrs with hammers. lie divided up
his estate into farms of one hundred
acres and less, and built snug little
cottages upon every farm. He then
went on to the North and hunted
up good Industrious families, mostly
foreigners, and upon every farm he
settled one of these families. Unto
some he sold, but unto most hcront-
ed for n share of the crop. He also
started a store on the premises, and
one of his handsome sons is counter
hopper. By this means, he writes
US, his income has been raised to u
figure higher than any it ever at
tanned before the war, and his lands
have suddenly been increased 800
per cent in value. In his letter, he
says; ~ am now, SO far rs / am
concerned, glad the negroes are free,
and recognize the truth that their
freedom is a blessing to the whites
Now let our Texas land holders,
who own thousands Of Improbable
acres, pattern after our good old
friend. They will do as well; they
will at the same time enrich both
themselves and the State; they will
have cut the Gordian knot of the
situation-in other words they will
have learned chow to do it. -

Some of our editorial brcthren n in
the interior are disposed to let re
construction alone, because a letter
has been written in support ofit by
the troublesome Brown, of Georgia
who acted so like the dog in the
manger during the late war, aud
was then altogether an obstructive,
instead Of either constructive or
reconstructive They need not
trouble themselves about that; in
Mississippi there is large party OF
that class who take the opposite
ground. Brown happened TO got
right, for once; if he had known
that the South would have gone in
the same direction he has taken, he
would, it is likely, have taken the
opposite track. We have one or two
in this State who must be always IN
the opposition, and who back cut
the moment they find the people
with them.-N D. Pic0yUHe.

A sweet little maiden
Lived far, far away,
Where Stanton bright waters
Tween ilowery banks stray.
Here whirling and curling,
The rude rocks among,
There smoothly and brightly
Rejecting the sun.
Now laughing and lcAping
Like schoolboys set free,
Now. camly pursuing
Their course to the sea,
And oft on the bank
OF that river I've srayed,
Clasping the hand Of
That sweet little maid.
Culling bright flowercts
To deck her fair brow,
Now talking of friendship,
Now breathing loves vow.
Long years have rolled past,
Since | gaaed in her oyei
More bright than the stars,
More blue than the sky.
Deeply my brow has been
Furrowed by care,
And time has been sapping
The brown from my hair.
Yet nc'er shall youths garlands
Around my heart fade,
While dwells in my memory
That sweet little maid.

The Washington County Fair.

The annual fair of the Washington
County Agricultural Society was held
in the borough of Washington last We'd
nesday and Thursday. There was q
large attendance, and all who were pre-,
sent expressed themselves we'll satisfied
with the display, and the exhibition
certainly reflected great credit on the
Society. About ten thousand people
purchased tickets during the two days.
and the total receipts will equal, if not
exceed, $500.
In Floral Hall, owing to the lateness
of the season, the display was not as
fine as it would otherwise have been.
However, the hall was fitted up and de-
corated in tasteful manner, and pre-
sented neat appearance.
In Mechanics Hall the display was
fine, and the awarding of premiums
generally satisfactory.
The chief feature of the fair was the
display of live stock, consisting princi-
pally of horses, cattle and sheep.
Among the latter was the celebrated
"Young Peerless" that took the pre-
MUM at the Pennsylvania State Fair.
The trotting was exciting, the first
premium being carried off by Mr.. George
r. Kinks celebrated roam mare, "Lady
Collins" This animal is one of the
finest in the county, and was a general
favorite with those interested in the
races.
The Society, Judging from the exhibi
ton this year, is in a prosperous condi'
ton.

aexx;uv uachiue Facts.

The following interesting statistics
we gather from the quarterly returns,
made, we believe, under oath, by the
several manufacturers of Sewing Ma
chimes throughout the United States.
The figures which we present, and which
we have been at some pains to collect,
show at glance the wonderful growth
and great Importance Of this branch OF
American manufactures. 1t will be OBJ
served that one company alone has pro-
duced and sold within the year over
forty three thousand machines. 1t is
somewhat remarkable that, during the
recent stagnation in trade, this business
has been but slightly, if at all, affected.
But below are figures in detail:
