2nd, we each receive S15 go month, al
though there has been an increase in
our pay, but we haven't as yet received
it.
Your papers were read by my self,
and comrades, and greatly appreciated.
A young man from Missouri said he had
read The Progressive Farmer before,
and thinks it a splendid paper.
The soil here is a very black rich
kind. and on the river bank, where it
has washed down to a depth of 10 feet,
the bottom is as rich IS the surface.
There are alligators in all the creeks
and rivers Of this island. A fellow in
my company is as good a cigar maker
as I've seen, and as there is much very
fine tobacco here, he makes SIS a day
making cigars, and could sell twice
that amount if he could make thsm.
We found two Cars full of black
powder, scraps of iron and lead. The
insurgents made them, and some
Chinese told US that the insurgents had
q smooth bore old cannon out Of which
they fired them.
We expect to go into battle again
this evening.

Do You Want to Go!

Why to Colorado of
Course.

Where else would q sensible man
seeking a new home want to go2
COLORADO has the finest climate
to be found in the New World-dry,
thin air and almost perpetual sunshine.
It you are seeking health, COLORADO
is the place for you.
COLORADO is the finest mining
section in this country-goId, silver,
iron, lead and coal. Thousands upon
thousands of persons have made for
tunes mining in COLORADO Why
cannot you make a fortune, too9
COLORADO is the one place in this
country where farming is done by ir-
rigation, and the farmer makes his own
seasons and is sure of a good field crop
every year.
COLOR ADO has homes for thou
sands of industrious families, and these
homes can be secured upon very easy
and advantageous terms. Do you
want one Of these homes9
COLORADO will be visited by a
party of North Carolinians during
June Of this present year. The party
will go in a body, and ample time will
be given to e the State and it's many
advantages. The railway fare will be
so low that any farmer can afford to
go.
If you are thinking of seeking a
home in the West, or elsewhere, write
to either of the undersigned at once.
We want a party of one hundred la.
dies and gentlemen to go with US to
this land of perpetual sunshine.
