The family of our head-pumper
is contemplating 'an extend visit
to the Land of theSky.
Our Trading Jtf'ord correspondent
seemB to be quite bumfuzzled on
account of the high price of land,
Don't be cynical old pard, we have
no way of making any more land
and the population is increasing
very rapidly ,;m spite of your shat
tered hopes, and the land adjacent
to Spencer will hold up buildings
as well as any in the United States.
One of our valley poets, in a
letter to his dulcinia, explains the
high , price of land. Here is an
extract:
My Dearest Sallie,
You are in Burton's alley,
I'm in the Yadkin valley,
This peaceful valley.
Do not treat my proposal with
oorn,
I'm in earnest, sho's you born;
We can raise no end of corn,
In this fertile valley.
What do yo dread?
Come and let us wed,
We cau raise our bread
In this magnificent valley. (
Here discouragament sickens,
Creases grow to beat the dickens,
We can raise chickens
In this beautiful vallev.
Wei always have plenty of rain ,
And lots of other things to make
us vain,
We can raise cane, . -
Whyo yearryf t
Come, and let us marry $J
TTT i A 1 13 TT f
we can raise ine very oia xxarry,
In this peaceful valley.
When the South gathers the
works of her poets, our laureate
of the valley will not be forgotten.
And who can say that the price
of land is exorbitant? Except
old batchelors who always take a
pessimistic view of every, thing
after their gills begin to dry up.
