Editor: The improvement of our condition here in the upper Cape Fear section is a matter which demands earnest attention. Cut off as we are by the sys tem of railroad enterprises which have been pot through even by State aid, and having 'cut off ourselves most of our fine timbers and sapped the fine turpentine from our noble forests, we have to look for other resources, xayetteville baa even 2 " native hog, E p Powers, 1 4BerkShire-6rth, x I ' "i.ss4jx poftf, L. ILravness, 20, 1879. yet many advantages forbuildinrr on and lecoming once again .a very fine market, notwithstanding the fact that the State's system of internal improvements have really been hostile td the old town. We can build np of bnrselves bigger than 'ever , with the. natural advaoU?es aronnd us. I will not 'speak of oitr fine water powers and the great advantages of manufacturing here, because that! all known and has been fully discussed. It is sad that these great I advantages have been so long neglected jby capitalists, bat 11 capitalists are Minn and sunn os, then let ng turn onr attention to an industry which alt can engage in. It wa said that we could not produce WllCI-iyCnmIerltud coanty. Onr teo- pio ui icteni jural s, even WIIUP IliO khi determined they would try it, and results prove we can do as well with our unim proved farms as the old cotton counties can do. j Then it was said wo conld not raise wheat. Our people for only two years have paid a little attention to wheat; re snlt is, we are, for onr opportunities and experience, the Wst wheat producers in the State , producing on our poor land as good crops as the wheat comities pro duce. ; But there is still something elue. To bicco! ' The most profitable crop made i the tobacco crop. The toWco counties have never felt the stringency of bard times for the dark period which dawned upon us in 1973, and which has darkened the day ever since. Cumberland and Sampson and Rnlon and Bladen can raise tobacco as well as they ran raie cotton and w heat. The demand for tobacco is inciraidn" rapidly. It is perhaps not generally known that two-thirds of last rear'i crop of tobacco was exported to foreign coun tries ! 1 bis is a f.ict i which can readily be verified, because an account of all to bacco exported is carefully kept by the Revenue officials, as export pay no inter nal taxes, and shipments free of tax to foreign countries are more than double the amount which it taxed for home consump tion. Then if w e compare the exports for last year with preceding year, we find that the foreign demaud is rapidly in- crcasin thlnjj lo It is no new thing to raise tobacco in our country, but there are many new im provements introduced every rear, not only as to its culture but as "to its curing. Thero is nothing difficult, however, in the culture or curing ofj the weed. Any farmer of ordinary intelligence can b come a succesaiul tobacco grower. It tH -rd ! Many some skill; bat what pavs letter men who cannot read their own bills of sale sell of their own production from forty to two hundred j dollars worth from one acre. The crop is very profitable and the demand is rapidly increasing We ought not forget either, as we have to 'come to a new building np of onr resources and introduce new methods and plans, that there is another big thing open to us, to-wit: the cultorc of jute. Jute is more profitable, it is said, than cotton, and our climate is well adapted to its raising. The demand for bagging' increases every year for the removal, of our vast cotton and grain crops. One farmer in CnraWr land has demonstrated the fact that he can raise jute. I know little about the matter myself, but Mr. Jidin Kirkpatrick, of Rock fish, was seen driving a black innle to town loaded heavily with cotton bales, while he applied the jute switch as a whip to push his donkey along. This was two years a"o, but I doubt not that Mr. Kirkpatrick can show von gam pies of jute even yet, and tel voo he raised it on his farm. Tobacco and Jute, two leading com mercial staples, can and will be profitably raised in this section before verv long Yours truly, Cumberland. SUEVIVOR'i UE-CXIOX. Raleigh, N.'C, Nov. 11, 179. I 1 To the Survivors if the Bratich-Lanc North Carolina Brigade: Comrades: At an informal meeting to-day, composed ofi representatives from the 7lh, I8U1 and J 23rd Regiments r North Carolina State Troops, it was de termined that a call in this manner should be mado upon each rf you to express by letter to the undersigned your preference for the time and place of yonr proposed re-union. We suggest Wednesday, the 17th of December prox., as the time, and the capital of the State as the place, Lot will be governed by the wishes of those who propose to attend. This call has nothing whatever to do with the politics of the past, present or future. We meet; as American patriots and soldiers. Let politicians settle among themselves the abstract question whether we were rebels or ! not. Your conduct up on the field secured to you the rights of belligerents, lhe respect gained there has only been increased in every generous soul by your law-abiding course in hon orably observing your parole and the con ditions of your capitulation. Sectional animosities raustj give place-to justice, magnanimity ana patriotism. While we say: "Alas that Scottish maiuVn e'er shoulJ sing Of Scots by Scotchmen stain." the unbiased chronicler of the military fame of the American States will yet call for the unpublished record of North Caro lina. As comrades of Lee and Jackson, you have imitated and surpassod lb prowess of your 1 ancestors who followed Washin gton and Greene. Do not imitate them also in omittiug to leave to posterity a tul ler report of the parts taken by yon in the great drama. A trne history of your brigade will show that none from .Y any State, North or'Sooth, excelled ia its cnuces aoa bravery to make rood its interprt Ution of a disputed question aris ing onder the constitution, wLkh the founders of our general government lad committed to os to ptwrvja-'trtlT lilrtics. Many of those having personal kocwl- edre of that recent history, lave, with our gallant L. O'B. Branch, "passed over the river" to joio the reat Stonewall, from whom he repeatedly woo such handsome compliments. "On fame's eternal citrr.Injr prima 4 Thrir oiirat Irtiia are prra4.w With their glory they have beqaeathed to yon a doty as yet nodischsrjred.

A taighty procciuo cf redeemed littlo ones is ever moving onward icto" eternity, as ibongh borne along by a river of tear.

What a Waotifol throng! Even Leaven would seem lonely now withont them, and the angels woifd wander disconsolately over the fields of Eden, if countless hoits of glorified child ren should be suddenly removed! Christian parents have a rich inheri tance in the memories of their tainted children, and in the living treasures laid np in heaven. "Years ago," mv Dr. W. M. Tayjor, "when I was leaving my Liverpool home to fulfill an engagement in the city c.f Glasgow, the last sight oa which my eyes rested was thst of my little daogbier at the grandmother's arms. As the carriage drove me aaar. she waved her hand in fond and laughing glee, and many a time during my railway ride the pleasant vision came np Wfore'oy mem ory and filled my heart with joy. I oever saw Ler arrain. TLe next morning a tele gram stnnned me with the tidings of her icath; and now that earthly rliinrso ci her has leen idealized and glorified, and it seems to mo as if God Lad set Ler in the window of heaven to tecVon roe tip to my eternal Lome.
