Mooeesyille, N C, May 20, 1873. : Editor Charlotte Observer: Since my last communication to your priceless Observer, we have ex perienced a decidedly unpleasant change in the weather, and as greata change in the feelings of our farmers. Yet, they aver, "we knew it was coin ing, for the almanac said so." Strange it is, hut rmany exercise a stronger faith in,th( filmanac thanjinHhe Bible. It hangs in every household, is con sulted nearly every day, and on every change in the weather ; while nothing can be planted, ploughed, harvested or garnered 'without first consulting this infallible directory. ; Aa Mooresyille is . located in the midst of fine farm lands, one woulcj think her people would bestow no a tention on the common topics of the day at this time of busy farm, workt but this is a wide-awake people, mani festing an intense interest in the exec utive chair, the general welfare of the State; and in the impetus of her own progress. , On each arrival, of the mail from Charlotte crowds rush to the postoffice, hastening good Squu-e Beatty the postmaster, ;in their eagerness tot get the Observer, "which, by the, way, w ields in this community' a . power of influence for good.
