Among the weather prophets of his age and country are several whose forecasts have been so gen erally correct that instead of be- ng ridiculed as guesser6 or charl atans, as was once the case, they receive respectful attention. Ono of these weather seers, Professor Forstervhas recently given to the Washington Post his prognostica tions for eleven months, begin ning with July. The professor disavows any mystery or any se cret means of knowing more of what changes are to be than oth ers possess, but plainly says that his prognostications are based on real physical causes. From his studies of these he is led to warn his countrymen to be prepared for an unusually severe winter and for great storms. These disturbances will be due to the equinox of Jupi ter next January, when he antici pates as terrible weather as this country experienced in 1832-33. During that period occurred the historical hurricane that visited the lower Mississippi and the Gulf of Mexico, and numerous other The Argonaut eays that there are bushels ,of truth, if there is not much poetry, in Ollie Arkenstrom's song of the Baltimore clam ped dler: "Toot your horn if you don't sell a clam." Outsiders continu all)r ask the question, if you have as grand a country as you claim, why is it not at the head of the procession, instead of being as slow aa it is? The Norfolk Vir ginian, of Jast week, in speaking of the large amount of uncultiva ted land in this vicinity, said the only reason there was any unculti vated land, must be, because the outside world knew nothing of our advantages. This is simply the plain, unvarnished truth. If the world knew the wealth in climate, soil, advantages of location and capability of raising the best pay ing crops on earth, that we are possessed of, there would be no uncultivated land in Eastern Car olina. There is no reason why this country, as well as being the world-leader in the production of golden leaf tobacc should not be the market garden of the Northern cities, as well as rivaling the great vineyard countries of Europe, as a grower of tho graie. Bill Nye DEATH OF A MISER. $10,000 FOUND IX HTOCKINGS AND VN CRACKS t'ADAKRrs OOrNTY MI SER DIES, AC CI) EHiHTY YEAR. Old uncle Hill Bot, of No. 10 township, Cabiirrtw county , died the other day and hi body waaburried at Bethel. Ilo wa alout eighty years old, whs a batchelor, and was known to be miserly in hi habits to a, wonderful degree. His only companions were two dogs, and an old negro woman who had been liv ing with him during his entire life. Ourioiis to nay, in his will he left her nothing but her old age and a worn out constitution not a pnny or even a shanty to cover her head. His real estate consisted of 1,800 acres of land. His home place con taining 500 acre ho left jointly to his two nephews, Allen and Peter Bot. The former is his executor. The balance was left to other neph ews in 100 acre lots each. To h'w nht-ea he gave nothing. In his dilap idated home ho had a wife which was thought to hold thousands of dollars. When this was ojeued the only money found waa a punched nickel.

Accepting the fulfillment of Ihis 1 1 1 a 1 propnecy as possible, mere are certain things it would be wise to do. The first is to secure as much of the cotton aud other late crops before the possible storm season shall begin. Another is to provide shelter for domestic animals aud to lay in unusually largo stores of forage.
