For the Highland Messenger.!
!i Ms. Atxui Sir: At thei tiroal I gave
.ort notice cf Dickson Wheat last spring, I
promised a more extended ope at future pe-
'riod. This wheat seems to have been intro
duced into Burke county, in this state, by Mr.;
Robert Dickson, (from whence its name,)
some jean ago, about 1830. I think lie ob-
tsined a smalt portion on Red River, in Ar
ksnsas, perhaps about two quarts, tod bri)ugh
It to his home in Burke, where, from his care
tnd attention, he has been enabled to spread
'It general! through hts portion of the county,
and it now has the preference to aniseed that
Is sown, by all who hare tried it. j I think
Burke, county should, and 1 am surd I do, feel
fcdtitt of gratitude to Mr. Dickson. I. Bet my
owd feelings must be more fully directed to
my old frier, J, honest Dutch; John Pun nelly,
trhich appellation he truly deserves, for fend.
Jng me two bushels in the year 1812, from
trhlch I haven sufficient start to disseminate
U almost throughout our ' county. Tle pre.
fjrenco which this wheat has over all others
that I have tried is, first : it should not be
"cawn until so iato in the season that it will
rj're time to gather the corp crop and prepare
; " the ground-well, thereby escaping all danger
Hessian fly, and not sowing more than
fourths of a bushel to the acre. Se.
ripens, from ihrco to four weeks
t.?ner than the common, or all other kinds
thc I have planted. . Thirdly-; it escapes the
. rusandby ripening so soon it does1 not give
sedcient time to cockle anJ cheat to mature.
An? one of these advantages I should think
i j " j.-. , ... I,
. , iufcient; but i in addition to alt, Ij find no
ivvilin it, and I know that many of my
" tr ;hbors arc complaining of them.! . T

there ever such a measure heard or drt amed of

have ncverj known, ' Ha preached a!;ncst without a
fortnight's interval Uirough life. The latter part of
his life he preached setting in his chair. Far and
near in churches, court, school, and Lg houses, and
as the gospel, was free so was h;s preaching ; and I
never heated i him preach a sermon during life that
did nut tell in his countenance and tears that he be
liered and I fell what he said, and that did not show
an extensive and practical knowledge of the sacred
oracles of eternal truth. IIi sermons were always
marked 03 solemnity and. earnestness. He had two
maxims froth)1 which he nerer departed: they were
that he wa obliged to tale time to dUnnd therefore
he would tale time to serre God daily while Jiving;
and that if- he lived treZ.he knew he should die irefl,
and consequently be always tried to obey God
rather thaq mai. He .was once asked by a rich
and intelligent man, what he would take fur heaven?
He replied. 14 I will take nothing for heaven but hea
ven." He related I this incident in the last sermon
he ever preached; which was from these words:
But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts ; and be
ready always to give an answer to every man that
askelh you a; rcasdn of the hpe that is in you with
meekness and fear," 1 Peter, 3 ehapv 1$ verse. In
the love feast, sacrament, class meeting, and the
private circle he was always ready to testify to the
goodness and smerey of God, stating that he had
trusted Ami in 'his young days, in middle life, and
vow in old age ; and in all ages, times, and condi
tions, he was tho chi:f among ten thousand," the
Vone -altoetlicr loyely," e.n J as he grew weak in
the body he grew strong La the Lord. Ilia faith in
God never wavered.
His constitution was etrongand vigorous, and the
greater portion of his life was spent in hard labor on
the, farm.'; He field, orgot by marriage, a family "of
negroes, but being unable to live ia rcy.ee with tlicra
