" F.
Since our PLEASANT Plains
Letter" we were sent for TO sc
to Fayetteville to attend what
might he called an ecclesiastical
court. When we were through
with that court We were sum
moned to another court, which
recommended rs to the grand
jury. Since going before the
grand jury we have had high O.
pinion of cur knowledge. We
had thoughts before that time
that our stock of knowledge was
very limited. With the fore
mans "step aside" we stepped
aside and started home. Before
reaching Wells Hill our knowl-
edge increased. We were in
company with sick preacher
and it was clearly demonstrated
that a preacher grunts just like
other people when he gets sick.
Getting home, everything was
glad to see rs Ct course, tie chill
drcn, pup and all; we found the
acidoac sick-better now. Our
I. ID. Griffis we found improving,
having. been suffering for some
tine from cold CT neuralgia in
the head. From this attack Tom
went deaf in one car, and to re-
cover his hearing he is now wear
ing a colony Of blisters ON the
side CT his head.
Our JAS. S. Byers we also
found in better condition; be has
been complaining some two or
three weeks. The state Ct his
health is such that he will fer a
time at least quit the store. We
have a rev citizen, Mr. jenkins,
from the North. lie bids fair
to he good addition; if SO Re
will find that warm hearts beat
on Southern sell. Ah, me. let's
snceze. These colds, viii they
never let loose? They are rot
much juicy-scems to Lave dry
rot.

Reys. w. p. Alternately, SEN,
and II. NJ. Woodard have, by
the appointment Of the Presiding
Elder of the Fayetteville Dis
trict, been placed in charge Of
pastorates. There is but one
local preacher in the nest at
Blanche, and he WAS ont on a
tow-hcaded mule last Sunday to
meet the appointment Of en- tim
Grant. Work on the farm goes
bravely on now. There will be
a larger cotton crop planted here
than for several previous years.
This section is mere cheerful O.
yer the wheat prospects-better
stands than was thought to be
when the cold weather first pass
ed away. Allow us, Mr.. Editor,
through the OBSERVER to thank
Mr.. and Mrs. Stcgall and Mr.. j.
S. Vaughn for considerate kind
ness shown us when in Fayette-
vile.
We see the foothills Of SUM
herland, and, witilal, being very
tired, will close in merited praise
Of the constant advancement that
the FAYETTEVILLE OBSERVER is
making. We carefully read it
every week and have done so for
years, and now say it is better
than ever before. just so, a
good thing enlarges its nature
until it seems to circle beyond
THE stars.

Letter From Delta.

Our town has been quite alive for some time
past, from the opening of new slate quarrles.
which are considered by our inhabitants to be a
great success. The first day of April being the
day set apart by the habit of the people of these
parts TO change their homes, the roads are filled
with wagons laden with furniture and farming
Implements.
Several new buildings have been commenced
here. Among them is the new drug store of Mr.
Rankin, which will he a great addition to the
town.
Mr. Samuel Wilson has succeeded Mr. Hugh
Ramsay, as agent of the Peach Bottom Railroad,
at this place, and entered upon his duties Mr.
Wilson has also succeeded to the business of Mr.
Ramsay, and has opened full assortment of
fertilizers, farming implements &C., in addition
to his fine stock of hardware, just above the de
pot.
NFr. Foulk Jones, one of the directors of the
Baltimore and Delta Railroad, returned, few
DAYS ago, from meeting of the board, held in
Baltimore, and gave a very satisfactory account
of the future prospects Of the new road. His

Inscribed to the bereaved friends of
Mrs. PRISCILLA HANNA.
Fold back the coffn-lid gently with care;
Look on the face of the dead lying there;
She who in life was SO lovely and fair,
Lying there pulseless and still,
Lying there as If in sleep,
With a sweet smile on her face.
How can we let the tomb hide her away,
In its embrace so chill?
Stricken and helpless, while thy cruel hand
Gathers the fairest and best in the land
Into thy charnel each day?
God pity those who, in sadness and pain,
Reach eager hands-but alas reach in vain
She whom we mourn for to-day,
With every womanly attribute rife,
TO the sweet story of mother" and wife
Added new glory and grace;
She who shed sunlight and JOY over all,
Why should she rest meath deaths shadowy
pail;
Mute to the cry of her children's low call,
Blind to each tear-bedewed face?
Why2 And all blndly we grope mid the
gloom;
Sight stops appalled, at the gate to the tomb
All we can see is a desolate home
And the hearts stricken with woe.
All we can hear is the low, anguish moan
OF those who now must walk onward alone:
All we know is-alas! that she's gone,
Where In life we may not go.
. But Faith assures us she only hath thrown
of the frail garb that her soul had out-grown
And that her beautiful spirit hath flown
Up to the land of its birth.
God in His wisdom, perchance, hath dccreed
That even better her children shell guide,
From that bright realm than if walking beside
Them on this shadowy earth.
Seasons shall come, and seasons shall pass;
BY her still tomb shall the daisies and grass
Wake from their winter sleep; blooming, alas
Over her beautiful head.
But in our hearts the sweet hope doth arise
That her pure spirit looks down from the skies,
And that there lives, in the light of Gods eyes,
She whom we mourn here as dead.

Severe our loss, but great thy gain.
