END OF VOLUME III.
With this number the Record closes
its third volume. Instead of surviving
only three months (as was predicted
by certain kind friends) the Record
lias now survived three years, and
enters upon the fourth year of its
existence with a larger list of sub
scribers and with more encouraging
prospects of success than ever before.
The people of Chatham now regard
the Record as au "institution" of
their county, and its weekly visits are
warmly welcomed. We are grati
fied to know that our efforts are ap
preciated, and it always cheers and
stimulates us to greater efforts to
hear the pleasant compliments some
times paid the Record.
We have endeavored to furnish the
people of Chatham with a reliable
family paper a paper for men, wo
men and children and a paper whose
first object is to promote the pros
perity of our good old county. Of
course everything that appears in our
columns does not please and interest
every reader but we beg each
reader to bear in mind that what
does not interest him may interest
hundreds of other readers. All can
not think alike. We desire to re
turn thanks to our subscribers for
their promptness in paying up,
though of course, as there aie "black
sheep in eveiy flock", so there are a
few who are not as prompt as they
might be. We trust the latter will
improve during the coming year.
The President was removed to
Long Branch on last Tuesday. The
malarial air arising from the Poto
mac flats was becoming so injurious
to him at the White House that the
physicians deemed his immediate re
moval absolutely necessary. Every
possible care was taken to render the
removal easy and without injury. A
railroad car was fitted up especially
for the occasion, and he was moved
without any mishap whatever. It is
hoped that the invigorating sea
breezes at Long Branch will soon
strengthen

dinners that cost $100 for each guest

struct a railroad from Goldsboro to
Salisbury: and the "North Carolina

pany that has been building a road
from Danville Southwest towards At
lanta. It is this latter road that has
been recently purchased by the Rich
mond and Danville Company. It is
rather remarkable that in section 19
of the charter of the Midland North
Carolina Company it is expressly
stated that "no railroad company
hereafter formed or incorporated
shall be allowed or entitled to use the
word 'Midland' in its corporate name

Thb growth or Texas is wonderful,
and its rapid development excites our
admiration. The Galveston News
has compiled from statistics which
show that 1,634 miles of railway have
been completed within a year; that
within two years forty additional
towns of commercial importance have
been reached by rail or have sprung
into existence, and that the value of
the State's products has increased
from $57,820,141 in 1878-79 to $75,
960,930 in 1880-'81. The cotton crop
of the State its chief staple reach
ed the magnificent total in the year
1880-'81 of 1,260,247 bales. No data
are at hand by which can be reckoned
the amount of money brought into
the State by immigrants and others,
and by investors in real estate and
personal property, although the
amount from these sources must be
yery large. The population of Texas
has so greatly increased daring the
past ten years that tinder the next
apportionment the number of her
Representatives in Congress will be
nearly doubled !
The Drongth.
The drougth is not confined to
Chatham county or to North Caro
lina, but prevails in many other
States. Despatches from different
States tell the same sad tale. We
herewith publish some of them.
A telegram from Philadelphia,
dated August 28, says :
Despatches from all sections of
Pennsylvania show that great
damage is being caused by tbe
drouth. In 6ouie quarters the rivers
are lower than ever before, while
springs and wells are almost dried
up. The corn crop is injured beyond
recovery, and there will be barely a
half crop of wheat. The fields in
some of the counties are yellow and
parched with no second crop of hay
and no ploughing. Up in the lumber
regions nearly all the grist mills have
been compelled to shut down, and
genuine alarm is setting in through
out the valley. The price cf batter
and milk is being raised by the
dealers in many sections while water
is being carried in oil tanks to the
farmers in others. Tbe loss in this
State will run into millions of dol
lars." A despatch from Illinois, says :
"It is nine weeks since rain has
fallen here, and in consequence the
crops are nearly a failure. The dust
is almost unbearable. In some parts
of the county there is much suffering
for want of water and a great deal
of sickness of a typhus form is pre
vailing. From the best information
wheat will not average over four or
five bushels perjacre; corn will make
from one-third to one-half of a crop,
and oats will be almost an entire fail
ure. The meadows which were not
injured by the army worms will yield
a big crop of hay. Tobacco is a
failure; the late potatoes almost a
failure; peaches an entire failure, and
the apples almost worthless. The
pastures are all dried np and no
ground is broken for wheat. The
people of Harrisburg are hanling
water from the creek to use. The
farmers are disposing of all the stock
they can possibly spare."
A despatch from Trenton, New
Jersey, says :
"The continued drought in this
section of the State is working dam
age to the crops, and farmers are des
pondent as to the outlook. The
Delaware River and all other streams
are unprecedently low. The pas
tures are parched and nearly des
troyed, and the corn crop in many
quarters will be an entire failure.
With the exception of a few showers
in isolated localities there has not
been any rain for over two months.
In fact, everything is drying up and
farmers will be much embarrassed in
consequence. Cisterns, wells and
springs are nearly dry, and in some
places water ior domestic use is
difficult to be obtained. Altogether
the season has been about the dryes
on record.
A despatch from Fredericsburg
dated aept. 1st., says:
"The unprecedented drouth pre
vailing in .Northern Virginia has
been disastrous to the corn crop.
In some portions rain has not fallen
for three months. There is no food
for cattle, and in some places the
people travel thirty mil6s for
breadstuff. On the npper Rappa
hannock water is hauled from the
river for household use, and the
water from the river is so reduced
that large mills here are unable to
do more than custom work. Other
establishments have been compelled
to suspend operations,'

The Midland Railway.
(Goldsboro Messenger.)
By invitation, a large number of
our merchants and business men met
in the court room Friday evening, to
meet Mr. Best, Maj. Yates and James
A. Bryan, Esq., of the Midland Bail
way. The meeting was called to
order by Julius A. Bonitz, and on
motion, John H. Powell was re
quested to act as chairman. The
object of tbe meeting was explained,
after which Mr. Best came forward
and addressed himself to the busi
ness men of Goldsboro, in appro
priate remarks.
He alluded briefly to his connection
with the Western N. C. Railroad, and
felt confident that he would again be
placed in possession of the road; that
he would do anything in his power
to aid in developing the great re
sources of the State, and had never
made a promise which he failed to
carry out. He intended to give the
State a North Carolina policy of
railroads, a grand trnnk line that
would have for its object the build
ing np of North Carolina seaports,
and afford the greatest protection to
the State and people. He meant to
carry out the conditions of his lease
of the Atlantic and N. C. Railroad,
and to complete the road to Salis
bury. Referring to the freight policy
of the Midland line, Mr. Best said
that he would be guided by business
principles did not propose to go in
to cutting of rates, but would give
every guarantee that freights over
his line should be promptly forward
ed, and all damage or loss should
be promptly made good. After giv
ing these assurances he thought that
Goldsboro should give his line a
liberal share of her freights. Ho did
not expect all, nor even half of the
freights, but would be satisfied with
a liberal share.
Mr. Best was followed by Mr. J. A.
Bryan, who also spoke in behalf of
the Midland and its importance to
Goldsboro, and strongly endorsed
Mr. Best
The following resolutions were
then offered and on motion unani
mously adopted :
Resolved, This meeting has heard
with pleasure the remarks of Mr.
Best, President of the Midland N.
C. Railway, and of Mr. J. A. Bryan,
one of his Directors, and appreciating
the importance of an active ontlet to
Newborn and Morehead City, and
looking hopefully forward to the con
summation and perfection of a grand
trunk line through our State from'
the seacoast to the Tennessee line, we
assure Mr. Best and his associates
that we realize fully the importance
of such a line to Goldsboro, and,
while we feel no hostility to any
other line leading here, deem it our
duty to aid and encourage the Mid
land m its grand project, both moral
ly and with substantial patronage.
Resolved, That we shall hail with
pleasure the construction of the con
templated Midland Road from Golds
boro to Salisbury, which is to connect
and link the great west with our
North Carolina seacoast at More-
uou vity, ana win ao all in our
power to aid and advance that grand
scheme to a successful issue.
Remarkable Cure.
(Charlotte Democrat.)
A highly esteemed gentleman liv
ing in one of the Western counties,
whose word no one iu this State will
doubt, told us that a member of his
family had suffered so much from
neuralgia and pain in the face and
head, that he determined to take the
sufferer to a physician living in a
neighboring town that after going
there he casually heard of a gentle
man boarding at the Hotel where he
stopped who could cure pain by
merely passing his hands over the
person afflicted. The lady sufferer
requested that the remarkably gifted
person should be consulted. Our
friend called him, and in less than
five minutes after he visited the
patient all her pain and suffering was
gone.
What we state is a fact and truth
beyond all doubt. Account for it as
you please, but you cannot crive a
reason for the sudden and remark.

names of the parties no ona who
knows them would doubt the state

Our European Letter.
Coblentz, Gebmauy, Aug. 15, '81.
Dear Record : Just a week ago we
took tbe steamer from London to
Rotterdam, leaving 'London at 12
and arriving at Rotterdam the next
day at 12. I enjoyed the sail very
much, the weather being very fine.
Holland is the very sort of country
I expected to see it' It is a low,
level country, intersected with canals
and rivers. The process of reclaim
ing land from the marshes and sea is
still going on. I saw several walls
apparently new.
I was surprised to see that the har
vest had just begun, the men and
women were in the fields, cntting the
grain with a sickle, not using a cra
dle like the one in use with us, nor
machinery.
Rotterdam has nearly as many
canals as streets. The stranger is
surprised to see the masts in every
part of the city. I was not much
pleased with the city. Sunday after
noon I attended the Cathedral, where
the service is in Dutch. I missed the
gowned choristers and was glad to
hear the whole congregation join
heartily in singing the psalms and
hymns. The preacher did not in
tone the service. The music is mag
nificent. The Dutch do not show
much reverence in he church; they
wear their' hats , tha. whole time ex
cept dnring the prayers, when the
men take them off and stand, while
the women sit. I noticed that the
people had the music to the psalms
and sung by it.
From Rotterdam we went to Ant
werp, a beautiful eity. The streets
are very wide, well paved, and have
two rows of trees on the sides of the
walk in tbe centre. The dwellings
are very handsome. The Cathedral
is very large, and the interior highly
decorated. It is Roman Catholic,
and of course has chapels and cru
cifixes in abundance. I saw "The
Crucifixion," considered the master
piece of Rubens. . It is certainly a
magnificent paiuting. Above the high
altar is the "Asoent into Heaven,"
also by Rubens. - In the National
Gallery at London I saw the " Ecce
Homo" of Correggio, and that by
Rubens, both impressive paintings.
You would enjoy very much a walk
through the National 'Gallory. There
are many celebrated paintings in it,
some by the old masters, others by
later painters.
The view from the tower of the
Cathedral in Antwerp is. perhaps,
the most extensive we have had. For
miles and miles the- country seems a
plain, no elevation is perceptible.
Through this plain the Scheldt winds,
a very sinuous stream. We spent a
day and night in Antwerp, then took
the train to Brussels. This city be
ing the capital has the royal palace,
the parliament houses and other pub
lic buildings. The palace is not open
to the inspection of strangers, but
the houses of parliament are. The
senate chamber in which the nobles
sit is the most handsomely furnished
room I have seen; it is handsomer
than the House of Lords. The as
sembly room is not as handsome.
The parliament was not in session.
After spending a few hours iu walk
ing through the park and streets, we
took the train for the battle ground
of . Waterloo. The first object you
see is the statue of a lion on a high
mound. This is the monument erect
ed by the Netherlands to the memory
of their soldiers who fell in the battle
and on the spot were their army corps
was stationed. Our guide pointed out
to ns the places of interest: Mont St.
Jean, Hugumont, La Belle Alliance,
the sunken road, the place where
Willi Dgton uttered the words " Up,
guards, and at 'em," &c. Id a room
near the'mound'are preserved a miscel
laneous collection of articles picked
up or dug up in the field. There are
no evidences cf war on the field, it
has been given to the arts of Peace.
It is grown with grain, and seems to
yield an abundant harvest. Our
gnide informed us that he was the
son of a Waterloo hero, and had con
ducted Gen. Grant and - other dis
tmguished men around the field
This, however, I took to be an exag
gerated statement.
In Brussels I went to see the fa
mous Nannekin, bo reverenced by the
common people. You have read of
it, so I will not describe it. Leaving
Brussels we went to Cologne via
Aix-la-Chapelle. This route lav
