Correspondence of The RobesoBian.
It is getting very dry in the
Fork, and exceedingly dusty,and
the farmers would be glad to see
some rain. I heard an old weath
er prophet yesterday afternoon
predicting that on the change of
the moon, that is. Wednesdav
morning, he thought the showers
would come, and I hope he may
prove to be correct in " his cat
culations. This foreteller.of the
a I " "K s -w rr i
weatner is Mr. ueo. Webster, a
sturdy old war veteran, who is
the 'Squire's constable, and came
down to attend court, in charge
of a colored man whose wife had
lncucteci nim ior tnreatenea as
sault with a deadly weapon.
There seems to be much domes
tic infelicity among our colored
people a great deal more than
there was in slavery times, for
which condition I have two
theories: In those days, infhe
majority of cases, the man and
nfe lived on different planta
tions, and were not so much in
each other's company, which is
one of the prime reasons; and
they were kept in restraint by the
precept .and example of their
owners. I would be glad to see
the race striving to uplift them
selves by cultivating pride of
moral character and living up to
their opportunities. Until they
do these things they can never
climb to higher planes, nor es
tablish the reputation and char
acter which go to make good and
useful citizens.
Mr. Webster told me of his
delightful trip to the Lumberton
reunion, and how royally the

. buy sliimrlcs for their
roofs rather than face the prospect
of painting a ready roofing every
year or two.
Shingles are expensive, but they
are actually cheaper during ten
years than a ready roofing which
needs frequent painting to keep it
free from leaks. -
Amatite roofing costs less than
half as much as shingles and does
not need painting either. It is
easier to lay and will give years of
long hard service without any care.
Amatite has a real mineral stir
face. That's why it needs no
painting. Once laid on your roof
your building has real protection.
Amatite is easier to lay than ever
this year. The liquid cement for
the laps does not require heating
before use. A three-inch smooth
margin is left at the edge of the
sheet so that the laps will be tight
fitting and easily cemented. The
large headed nails which we fur
nish save fussing with caps, which
rust easily.
Amatite is up tD date.

Wednesday as delegates from
Smyrna Presbyterian Sunday
school and reported a most
profitable and enjoyable day.
Work has begun on a branch
of railroad leading from Laurin-
burg to John Station, a distance
of four or five miles, and we are
hoping that at some time not
far distant it may be extended
to some point on the Coast Line,
thereby facilitating transporta
tion down South, where my
"grandbabies" are. This would
seem to the public at large a
very petty reason for wanting a
railroad, but to this one old lady
it appears to be a very poter.t
one, as I have either to ride 25
miles through the country, or
11 miles to Rowland to board
the train, or 8 miles to Maxton,
then spend the day in Pembroke,
get to Latta at sundown, and
ride 5 miles to my .final destina
tion in the country, aggregating
about 50 miles to journey a dis
tance of 25.
I can hardly confine my at

Senator Clay, of Georgia,

Governor Hughes, of New

exhibition of honest, courage
