Edith well knew Richard Oakley S
nature. They had lived in the same
village ever since they were children.
When very yonng they had attended
the same school. He had been rude
cruel. hearted boy, and Of late years
he was known as fast young man.
Ediths father and Richards uncle,
with whom he had lived since the
death of his parents, which took place
in his infancy, were the rich men of
the village. They were also on init.
mate terms. So Edith and Richard
were frequently thrown together; at
least till Mr.. Raymond died. This
occurred when Edith was seventeen,
year prior to her engagement.
Richard always manifested fondness
for Edith's society, but while her
father lived he was deferred by her
GOODNESS from annoying her with any
marked attentions.
He was anything but agreeable to
her, and she was exceedingly sorry
that he cared for her, as she knew he
did for she was not coIuette, and
she found no pleasure in winning af-
fection that must bring pain and dis
appointment to another.
In point of wealth, there was wide
difference in their positions, Edith
being the heiress of all her father &
property. whilst Richard had been

not strange thing TO be sure. Al
most any pretty girl can boast Of as
many. Indeed, it wonld not have
been strange il Edith had had dozen !;
for, In addition to the charms of per-
sonal beauty. she possessed those Of a
more substantial sort namely, Of gold.
1t was not the number, but the
character OF one of the lovers, that
rendered the condition of affairs pc
culiar. This one was Richard Oakley,
the rejected suitor. His rival was
Captain Harry Belknap. and it was
his success that aroused Richards ire.
The latter was lot one to accept defeat
in anything quietly, but in the mat
ter of love he showed himself especi-
ally belligerent.
Years ago he had made up his mind
to have Edith Raymond for his wife

thermometer touched 81 degrees.
What do you think of that, and in

In this atmosphere, clear and dry

too short. Every one on arriving
seems to acquire renewed nervous
vigor and zest for the diversions of
the place. And there are many of
them. Trout fishing, horseback ex.

much comfort and encouragement in
reading all those letters written by men
about the Savings Bank and have de-
posted with Mr.. Henry Penland $2S 81,

the past II months
My grandmother lived on Mills River,

hardworking and saving. and when
mother grew up they had saved enough
to send all the way to Charleston for a
silk dress which mother wore at her in.
fair the day after her marriage with my
father, who had lived much in Raleigh
and had town ways and liked dress
Father was captured and died soon after
the war from the, effects, and as We had
nothing much Left, the boys and / have
had to work for ourselves and my ambi-
ton is one of these days to buy silk
dress from Mr.. Sawyer for my own Unfair.
But that event, MIR. Stone, seems long
way off for 30 few of these men are any
account, and would rather work and
save by for my old age, than marry man
and work for him and save nothing.
l am not used to figures, but the gen.
tleman who wrote the last letter like.
He should have called himself Mr..
Hardfact for my brother who has studied
Algebra tells me that figures never lie.
If my letter can only be the means of
encouraging some other girl to save and
deposit, l will only say am glad, for it
does give woman mighty contented
feeling. l propose to deposit 50 month
without fail.

by Mr.. Deaver, of the valuable prop
erty of Mr.. F. S. II. Reynolds, just
west of the Iron bridge. There are

located, overlooking the beautiful
French Rraaa-r;zer p,sFa'L' s1's c1tyi

the CASTOR property, the latter of
into is to be divided into fine lots
for residences Mr.. Deaver informs
US it is his intention to Immediate
ly have the 65 acress subdivided
with lots for residence and business
purposes, with wide, handsome
streets &C., &c. These lots will be
sold cheap. The work of grading
streets and laying off the lots is
rapidly progressing, and will soon
be completed. Parties desiring a
good home, at a reasonable price,
should call on Mr.. Deaver at once
for full information. Mr.. Deaver is
taking this course in recognition of
the large and increasing demand
for homes at reasonable rates in and
near this city, and it is in keeping
with the energy and local pride OF
that gentleman. who, since becom-

HEAVY AND ExrRAoRD1NARY RAIN.

HEAVY AND ExTRAoRDINARY RAIN.
The rain that fell here Tuesday even
ing, to which we referred in our last
issue, had some strange features. 1t did
not fall from clouds driven here by the
wind, but was the sudden condensation
of vapors in the, atmosphere around and
above, thickening and gathering by de-
grees until the down pour was heavy
and continuous The rainfall was much
heavier in some parts of the town than
in others On White Pine street, at the
east end, it probably did not exceed half
an inch. On Haywood and Academy
streets, by measurement made by Mr..
a. ]. Lyman, the amount that fell in one
hour and thirty-fve minutes was one
inch and sixty-five hundreths,at the rate
of an inch an hour, or two feet in twen-
ty -four hours. There was incessant
lightning, but only one or two violent
discharges, and no damage done.
