Mr, Printer,. ,
I had the honor fame time paft be dine in
company wah two.grmlemen, both fubitan-
tial Cape Fear planters, when the (uk^cift of'j
converfation turned* an -the politics of the
times, and.more particularly on the opeia^ton
of the war in Europe upon the agricultural
intereft of. this cotmtry. After a ferious and
fenfibledilctiffion, the point agreed upon was,
that provifions of every kind would be in
gr-at demand : their proipetfts of immerife
crops, and the idea ^ an enhanced price
l^inir given, (b dilated and exixnided their
hearts (though 1 do iior*mean to fnggeft they
were ever doled to objetfts of charity) that
on the name of a certain diftrefled inhabitant
of this county being mentioned, tlicy both,
by a .fndden impuBe of benevolence, pledged
themfelves to tlie company, that they wonld,
on gathering their crops, compliment him
with two barrels off com each.—As thefe two
gentlmien have received, for that difinte-*’
relied and nohle flow of lirnevolence, not
only high and exalted encomiums, but alio
the approbation of their own hearts, I tn-li,
on being reminded (for they dclired they
(huulo) perform with the nioft icrupulous
puntfiuality their (everal promil'es.
