He's a house painter; but there isn't very much work this winter, so he is doing laboring till spring comes. lie leaves us a warm breakfast when h. goes off; and we have bread and milk for dinner, and a good supper when he cornea home. Then he tells us stories and plays on the fife, and cuts out beautiful things with his jack-knife. You ought to see our father and our home, they are both so beautiful !' I!. !' re long the teacher did see that home and that father. The room was an attic, graced with cheap pictures, autumn leaves, and other little trifles that cost nothing.

PRESIDENT K. P. BATTLE TELLS OK ITH ADVANTAGES. Sewn and Observer. I have rarely heard so complete and el oquent a presentation of the natural ad vantages of our State as that made by President Hattle at the recent Fanncra' Convention. It was a capital speech, delivered and well received. It ought to be printed and circulated over the United States and Europe by the oard of Agriculture. I send a brief nd inadequate summary: "Noith Carolina has, as a farming coun try, many extraordinary advantages. 1. Range of productions the same aa if the State stretched along the sea coast from the Gulf of Mexico to New Y'ork. The climate Our average isother mal is that of South Frauce, Florence, Ycddo. Dakotah's rano of tcuipeialurc 1 (15 degrees F. in summer to 38 de grees below zero; Kansas from US degrees 21 below; Indianapolis from lull de crees to 22 degrees below zero; West Tex- fr.nu 1112 degrees to below zero. In Pennsylvania and New York fanning operations are hindered about five months winter. 3. North Carolina has no blizzards, and the cold waves start from the north" west the telegraph gives our people one two days' notice of their coining. 4. We have pure air and pure water most of the State and therefore good alth. With cistern water the eastern counties are also healthy. North Carolina has comparative freedom from drought. We have 17 in- ln's per annum of ruin , while Dukotah as only "1, and West Texas only IS. At El Paso there were one year only 1 1 j iuches and about one-third of this fell in one month. With deep ploughing and good cultiva tion we need not sutler from drought. C. Grasshoppers (called locusts in the llible) flourish where there is dry land near rich vegetation. They will always infect Kansas, etc., while North Carolina free from them. 7. We have good, orderly population, composed of the beBt blood of England, Germany, France, Highland and Low land Scotch, etc , who have been in the State long enough to become homogene ous. No religious denomination is domi nant. All are represented. 8. Our geographical situation is excel- cnt. J he most civilized nations with 240,0(10,(100 of people, with ten thousand millions of dollars of imports and exports per annum ure clustered around the North Atlantic. North Carolina is ( n the wa ter flout of this great lake of the nations it. As the mountains opposite the south ern Chesapeake have been recently pierced by railroads the building ot a great city somewhere on its waters is in the near future. Hut even if the prediction be not verified, New Y'ork is now the second commercial city in the world. On Man hattan Island alone there were sixty sev en millions of dollars worth of new build' ings last year. Counting Brooklyn, Jer sey City and other places, there arc clus tered here already about two and three piarU'r millions of people, with wealth beyond conception. Between here and New York arc other populous cities, rap idly growing, go that it will not be long before the lauds of North Carolina will be adjacent to forty millions of nun pro duceis. Farms in twenty four hours of New york should now be worth 8100 per acre. 1 liey have not ouly the advantage of a ready market for their productions but they are in close proximity lo the store houses aud manufactories whence they get their supplies. What are the disadvantages of North Corolina? 1. Tho presence of slavery excluded men unaccustomed or averse to that in stitution. After the great civil war the uncertainties of Reconstruction aud the bitterness of party feeling havo retarded the influx of Northern men. It will not long before these disturbing elements wili have passed away. Some unaccustomed to colored la bor do not like to settle where negroea are a large portion of the population. To this th.ro is a nufficicnt answer firat that many counties are larg. ly white and in the eastern counties the negro element is superior to that in the South, because for miny V'sr it hrol "en the eostom to sell to tint region the turbulent and vici ous slaves. And lastly, the proportion of the colored must rapidly diminish, be cause they h ive no accessions from im migration. Want o:" schools is urged as an objec tion, but that does not result from hostil ity on the part of our people, but from sparsencss of population and poverty. When settlers come schools will spring up. 3. High railroud freight will disappear when our farmers demand it. The rail road companies will loer their rates froaa policy whenever farm products increase in bulk. 4. All these objections ti North Caro lina aro remediable. We come last to the most serious, via., that our lands are net narurally fertile. Aa to this, President Battle contended that if our lauda are not naturally rich, they are cheap and easily taado rich, to that the total cost will only be one half or one third of the cost of land at the same distance from New York in any other direction. He ..ootid from a let ter from a fii -nd in Kansas City to the effect that tbe land iu western Missouri and eastern Kansis brings thirty to siity bushels of corn to the acre and cost 82. to $"0 per acre. He usked if a North Carolina fanner should put on his land the dilleratico between the cost of land here and there, our lands would not pro duce as much more. OLD BOB. A Till .'INN. I STultr or AN OLD N K.I H.I. Old man Bob was dying. He had always been a quiet man. The artist would not have painted him with regard to any aesthetic tulcbut rather, if he had thought of him at all, as a stupid clowu, with rounded back aud weather beaten fuce, that had bent over the spade and done the rough work of the world. He had 'struck" the town years ago, but he worked hard aud his big heart found means to do charities that tLc world with its cold smile and s-lf obliga tion, would never have seen. No one knew anything of his past his tory; no one cared to ask, and Ins bowed and trembling form at the altar, when God's people w, re called to the Holy Communion was seldom noticed, for his coat was faded und putih.d. He was dying as he had lived un knownbut his love for the (iod that he hud served was of the kind that ' Passclh all understanding," and there was a sih ut glory in his death that gives the lie to the thought iu the fool's heart, "There is no God." A few sympathetic women had gone to the IiuiiiI.Il- collage ou the last mission of love. Death is the common enemy ud hard is the heart that hath uo sym pathy. The sun went down and the soul of old man ISub parted with the body as the fires of evening burned low in the west, flickered and went out. His luiu.l wandered lieforc he died. and the silent watchers knew that he i a boy again, among the hills of old Scotia, but when ho came to the river's bank, there was a glad smile on his face, and he plunged into the cold waters. lie saw on the other shore what is withholdeti from human oyes angelic bands. The world had sneered at his ragged coat and parsed him by, but noiselessly the chariots had come down through avenues of ether, and carried hiui to his home beyond the stars. The good women, brushing the tears from their eyes, saw ouly the deserted tenement. Old nun Bob was a king and wore a crown. THE MOON. Atlanta (.'.institution. Harris Gillette, a well-to-do farmer of Sidney, has the hobby of strictly govern ing all his doiugs by the phases of the moon. Interviewed on the subject, he unf'ldcd his creed as follows : "I alwaysgo by the moon's changes, because then I know I'm right, I see a great deal in the papers about (low to choose a cow, but I can tell you a rule worth all the rest : If a cow is born when the horns of the moon point down, then she will be a good milker; but if born when the horns point up, then she will be nothing but skin and bone. I ulways butcher cattle and hogs iu the new of the moon, and then I have a quarter more meat. 1 always sow and plant in the new of the moon, aud 1 have better crops than my neighbors. I a ways build fences when the herns of the moou point up, and put ou the stakes and riders when the horns point down, for then tho two pull together, and my fences never fall down. Our school house, con trary to my advice, was roofed in th full of the moon; it leaks badly, and last winter all the children had the measles, I once attended cauip meeting and got converted in the dark of the moon, but 1 soon backslided wonderfully. Since then I got converted iu the light of the moon. and my religion has stuck to me ever since. xri'.Ak iti)ii:iti.v. Justice of the Peace Had you ever aw this man before ? Witness Yen.

An English general in reviewing a corps of ealvcry suddenly stopped before spleudid-looking fellow and asked ul - ptly : 'Which is the best horsj iu the rcgi ent?" "Number 40, sir." ''What makes you think it is the best orse ?" He walks, trots and gallops well; is a good juniper; has novice, uo blemish; car ries his head well; is in his prime." And who is the best soldier in the 'uiuient ?"' "Tom Jones, sir." "Why?" "Because he is an honorable man, is obedient, tidy, takes good care of his equipment and horse, and does his duty well." "And who is rider of the best horse ?" "Tom Jones, nr." "And who is Tom Jones?" "I am, sir." The general could not help laughing, but he gave a soveieign to his informant, who received it without moving a muscle. Johu Bull's Army. Ml 11 1 Ahead.
