A Trip Upon the Raging Thickety.

the monotosy of farm life and taking trip in
the way of an excursion, which at the present
day is quite fashionable. g.

enjoying a pleasant excursion trip over the
Mountains of North Carolina, breathing pure air,
drinking good water, and having good time
generally, some of our citizens were enjoying a
good ride down Thickety creek in search of
roots, stumps, logs, sand bars, &c.

Storm Last Saturday.

night, at this place, in one Of the most terrific
storms of Thuuder, lightning, rain and wind,
We have seen for many years. The storm las
Icd nearly three hours the rain fell in torrents,
and the lightning appeared to be almost one
continuous sheet of flame, so vivid and quick
dill the flashes come, while tho thunder was
dcatcning during the whole time. One oak tree
was struck 10y the lightning, in Mr.. Culp's yard.
We understand that the storm blew do"n a
great deal of corn, hu; we have not heard that
it did any serious damage 10 the crops.

Our State Qahf.

Our State Debt.
1t is really amusing to hear some people talk
about the bondod debt of the State and de-
nounce the last Legislature ->certain members
of it.at leastz-for their action in the matter. \
strangereon hearing these wiseacres grumble
about it, you'd suppose that the democratic mem
bers Of hat Legislature actually had created
the debt, instead of doing what they conscien-
tionsly bflieved to be the most honorable and
s"'sss' ss"ss$'', Of '-'s''"s the State Of its
Ask ttAse grqmblers if they know anything
about IL matter, and ninety nine out of every
hundreS{will candidly confess their total ignor-
ance Of either the origin, amount, condition, or
liability of the Stateto pay it. They will tell
you that certain persons say it was contracted
by the Radical government and, of course, ought
not to be,pad. They lose sight of the legal
moral obligation resting upon the State to pay
any part & IL, but "go it blind for reputation,
upon the sayso of men whose only object is to
make poltical capital out of it, either for their
own Advancement or the defeat of some better
man.
As yet We have not seen the first point of
sound argument against the action of the last
Legislature upon that important matter. Not
one of the advocates of Reputation has given
any soundcr reason for opposing the action of
the legislature Nhan the fact that some of the
bonds are fraudulent, and, as sequence, they
assert al are .f!,udu'en.
We ask our ciizcns not to Judge too hastily
upon the matter. We can assure them that the
Legislature has done the people no harm. VIC

Almost a Storm.

Almost storm.
For about half an hour on the evening Of Fri
day last we were threatened with a terrific storm.
The wind howlcd, the thunder rolled and the
lightning flashed, while black and angry clouds,
North, South East, South and South West Of us,
esred tp,be go lr0ting OVERHEAD to delugc the
earth with rain. Doors and windows were
closed and our people waited i'll trcmulous anx
iety for the bursting of the storm. Any kind
of n rain would have been welcome, after such
sUlIocating weather as we had had, but it locke ed
as if we were about to be visited by a perfect
