A DWELLING BURNED. Last Saturday, at Raven Rock was.a day of pleasure end social en joyment. The oecasion was a pic nic, at which gathered the manhood and beauty of both Wake and Harnett eountie?. 1 his p'acc to which nnture has Ikcmi so boun'iful in .bestowing her charms, has been time out of mind a jtryeling place for lovers. Scr.t 1 be- jneath the overhanging crass of this massive gray granite, inhiiling the sweet perfumes of the mountain nay, which grows so luxurantly here, and while Iblet.ing to the penile rip ple of the river at their fee, many have in year? gone by. made vow 3 to which they have been true, vw- which, have sealed their destines, cither for wea' or for woo. Nor was Saturday an exception to the past. The beanx with their new spring jiui-f, straw hats, and white ties were on hand and at their bost in their etforts to please and to do the agreeable. The writrr being no model or werd painter, in describing the girls will s'.op before be spoils it all. by saj'ing that they, in their pic-nic attire and broad hats were beautiful, and as agreeable as pretty. The cool drink and confectionery vender w.-is there, adding to the pleasure of the occasion b dispens -ing goods of the best quality. The time passed rapid I j, but, pleasantly in a general way. until dinner was announced, when 'an ."r ray of good things was spread, that was of quality, sufficient to gratify the palate of the most fastidious euicure. When dinner wag over the pron e- nades and lovers strolls began. Hie steep ascents made this difi cult, and the young men found light ladies not at all disagreeable. Every one (true to human nature) wo s watching to see, and ready to laugh at the downfall of some of the un weary of their companions as they. losing their footing took a tumble down the steep ascent. But the gallants were fort unate and we sav with Ttbulus: whom love rules, where'er his path ma)' be, walks safa and sacred." But how true it is, "thai no earthly pleasure id complete." While standing and gazing u; on the exquisita grandeur of the scene ry, pome cjes were extracted to a dense black smoke afcwuiilrs across the river. Many volunteered sug gestions as .o its origin, but it was all made plain, when in vbout an hour, some one arrived and told the s?A news that the dwelling, si United on the plantation of R -v. J. D. Pe gram near Cokesbury was in ashes. The house was occupied by Mr. Win, Trulove. The origin of the fire is unknown. The family were all away from home and when the fire was discoxs ered the roof was ready to fall in. Nothing was saved except one bed. Some of . Mr. Trulove' s sons wert at the picnic, but on hearing the sad news of their misfortune re turned to what was to them only a few hours before when they left it, a comfortable home, but now a heap of smouldering ashes with nothing save the clothes they wore on their backs. Thus passed a day of joy and sor row, and one that will be remember- ed by all that were present. B. Dickenson Items. Weather fair and warm. Farmers are all busy planting corn and cotton. Mr. E. B, Brantly and wife come over Sunday to Healthy Forest. Miss D. P. Johnson is visiting her aunt, Mrs. McNeilf, this week.

Memorial Services- Quite a good crowd of our citizens attended-the Memorial services at Chicora, Cumberland county, Tues day evening. We have never attend eu a more pleasant Memorial celebra tion. Rex. Mr. Bradshaw of Little Rix-er Academy, was the ora'or chosen by the L-idies Memorial Association. The orator vas in the finest trim for speaking and commanded the rapt attention of his audience as he paid a most beautiful aud eloquent tribute to ihb valor the sacrifice, and the heroism of the Confederate soldier, and clot lied in beauteous rhetoric the deeds of martyrdom of the wife, mother and sister of the Southern solder. The good woman of the South canno. be too highly praised for their kindness in thus annually decorating ith flowers the graves of those men who sacrificed their lives upon the altar of their cour try. Harnett and Cumberland cannot be to highly commended for raeeu ing every 10th of Ma at Chicora to beau ifv with flowers the graves of our fallen heroes, for they in so dos ing keep fresh the memory of men whose war record is the pride of our whole country, whose bravery on the battle field inspires our youth with Irgher ambitions and holier hopes, and whose unselfish patriotism has adorned the pages of American his tory.
