Destructive FreShet.
(ScOtland Neck Democrat

BY reason of the recent rains Roa-
noke river overlooked its banks and
the freshet has destroyed all the crops
in the lowest parts Of the lowlands.
Only once before in about thirty
years has there been such an overflow
The State farms near Weldon, Hal
flax and Tillery have been greatly
damaged. The Catalonia farm near
Tillery was thought safe and the water
had commenced to fall, but about II
O'Clock Monday the water broke
through, took out about 400 feet of the
dykes and submerged the lowlands in
an hour. About 1000 acres Of corn
and 600 acres Of cotton we're covered
The loss on this farm is estimated
at fifty thousand dollars. The loss in
corn will be ten thousand barrels and
in cotton 400 bales. The farm con-
tains over four thousand acres; and so
the larger part Of it is unhurt. But it
will be great loss to the State.
Farmers all along the river have
lost heavily. Quite a number of per-
sons in Scotland Neck have sustained
serious loss.

Tommy's Composition on Tramps

Iramps are men who travel from
place to place looking for work. If "a
tramp hears of work in a place, he
goes far out around it. This makes it
very hard for the poor tramp ever to
find anything 10 do.
Iramps eat at back doors and
wouldn't know how to act at the
table. The more tramps eat the l.un
g'ler they get. Atramp can eat all
day and go to bed hungry.
Iramps don't care mucn about the
fashions for gentlemen. Once | saw a
tramp wearing stovepipe on his legs.
1t was tor dogs. Tramps look slow,
but they can run faster than a dog. \
tramp THAI can't run away from a dog
doesn stay tramp very long. III
l was tramp, l would get me suit
OF armor Ike the old knights used to
wear, and then would look through
my helmet barred, and | would say:
"Base cur that thou art, why gnawest
at my leSso &c thee gone for a sorry
rascal"
Tramps DO not wash their faces
enough. Some boys have to wash
theirs too much. There is a happy
medium which parents should cult
vate.

FretfulnesS.

The cancer which ruins and disin
tegratcs many home is nothing more
or less than fretful temper. II is not
cruelty, nor Indifference, but peevish-
ness. It is the multiplication Of a
thousand needless rules and irritable
injunctions. 1t is the inability to praise,
and the readiness to blame. 1t is tho
disposition to ignore virtue, but never
forget fault. The carelessness Of
servant or the ,houghtlessness Of a
child, is permitted to cloud the bright
ness Of day filled with the benehcence
OF God. A single dish upon table
underdone or over cooked converts all
the wine of life to vinegar.

GIadStOne'S Advice.

Be sure that every one of you has
his place and vocation on this earth,
and that it rests with himself to find it,.
Do not believe those who too lightly
say nothing succeeds like. success.
Effort, honest, manly, humble effort,
succeeds by its reflected action, espec-
tally in youth, better than success.
when indeed, too easily aud too early
gained, not seldom serves, like win
ming the first throw Of the dice to blind
and stupefy.
Get knowledge, all you can. Be
thorough in all you do, and remember
that, through ignorance often may be
innocent, pretention is always despca-
bic. But you, like men, be strong
and exercise your strength. Work
onward and work upward, and may
the blessing of the Most High soothe
your cares, clear your vision and
crown your labors with success.

True Courtesy.

Gen. Lee was in the cars one day
going to Richmond and was seated at
the end farthest from the door. The
other seats were filled with officers
and soldiers. Az old woman, poorly
dressed, entered, and finding no seat,
and none having been offered to her,
approached the end where the general
was seated. He Immediately rose and
gave her his seat. Instantly there was
a general rising each one offering his
eea, 20 the general. But he calmly
sad: "No, gentlemen; if there was
~ seat for me inhrm women, there
can be none for me- The effect was
remarkable. One after another got
out Of the car. The seats seemed to
lie TOO hot for them.
The general and the old lady soon
had the car to themselves.
