T1IK I) AUK CONTINENT. f From a private Mter of J. TL Patterson now traveling in Africa. (Special to The Caccabum.) JoiIASKESBERO, il s I 8inii African It bp cblic, Sept. 15th 1889. I am still here awaiting; ad vertising matter which may ar rive any day when I will gladly leave for a more congenial so journ in th coast towns. The accounts : of .. excessive rains in the states make us feel that we are badly neglected in that respect, as every thing is as dry as a chip and not a blade of green grass to be ieen. I went out to "Orange Grove" six miles distant from here last Sunday it being a p ace of re creation for the people of Johannesberg and the nearest watering place to the town. The spring affords just en ough water to run about 200 yards before the sun and dry soil absorbs it. A hotel, horse stable and spacious bar room are the principle buildings of the place the latter being the most attractive feature. There ia a very pretty cultivated Or ange Grove with rustic seats be neath their fragrant and de lightful shades and which are the only trees I have seen since I cime to Johannesberg. Large numbers of people flock there on Sundays and sit under these trees and are served with differ ent driiiKS xroin tne bar room which they imbibe by degrees and enjoy themselves all day. The forinotion of the country in the vicinity of Johannesberg is quite singular and different from any part of Africa I have seen. It in thrown up in rugged heaps of rocks and different colors of soil which is sugges tive of its famous gold mines and of past earth quakes. The mania for prize fighting ia greater here than ever in America. One has just come off between Couper and Bendorf the former winning the fight and the enormous sum of four thousand pounds. I was not in- eresteu to the amount of five pounds the price of admission and consequently did not see it. But I must tell of one I did witness without hinder or price at the hotel last night. Just after the dinner hour 7 p. m. iwo young r,ngii!nmeu J im commenced a quarrel in the public drawing room about a girl with whom they were both n love, and tfcey were about to fight it out right then and there when the crowd proposed for them to settle it by regular prize fight" rules and they readily agreed. A second was selected for each man who di vested them of pistols and knives and a ring was formed n front of the hotel and - the word given to "go" and they ought 25 rounds lasting about an hour. They were terribly bruised up with a mass of blood about their faces. About the 20th round one : became very weak his apponent - knocking him down at every approach. On the 2lst round the wealk man was &nocaea aown ana fainted, but hit second would hold him up and fan him ntil "time" was called when he would go for his apponent with just enough strength to fall up against him when he would be felted again to the ground. The 25th round ended the disgusting sight by a blow on tne nose which sent him to the ground sprawling and he was unable to rise again. The fcirl who caused the trouble was a guest at the hotel and in the house at the time.but do not know that she witness ed the fight from the window. Our American girls are trem sn- dously sweet and ' dear, but I trust it may never, rail to my lot to pass through such an or deal to vindicate loye and honor; There has been no recent news here from Stanley and I should not be much surprised if ne was seeping quiet as an advertising dodge to ; Intensify th sensation when he is heard from. You will remember his reports to the New York Herald of the Berry and Rhody Low- erry episode from Robeson County N. C which in some re spects illustrates the manner of man he is. There is a big trouble be tween: this government and the natives of Zontanspanslory dis trict and those of Matabelaland.

F. & Y. VKXTMSIOX; A - ROAD CONTEMPLATED for half i century. THREE TIMES PROJECT ED, AND XOW NEAR ING COMPLETION. Twill Give An Electric Thrill to the the Industrial and Agricultural , interests of Western and Southern Sampson. the coxing town or parkers- BURO AND MANY POINTS OF INTEREST ALONG THE LINE. In 1833 a railroad from Wil mington to Fayetteville was pro posed to connect with the ter minus of the C. F. & Y. V. at the latter point. Several parties along the line of the proposed road took stock, but not suffi cient to make the road a cer tainty. So the compauy chang ed its plan and decided to run tho road to Raleigh, calling it the Wilmington and Raleigh Railroad, but for the same and other causes this plan was aban doned, and the road was finally projected to Weldou, resulting in what is now known as the W. & W. Railroad. In 1854, while the C. F. & Y. V. was being built to the coal fields, another extension of this road was proposed from Fayette ville to the proposed "Carolina City," near Morehead, by way of Clinton. Stock for the en terprise was put on market in Wall street, New York. Col. W. J. Parker and other parties in this section invested and pur chased lots in the yet unborn "Carolina City." For some cause unknown to us this plan also fizzled out, leaving the proposed road and city catalogued in the great dismal realm of financial myths. Thirty-five years have flitted by . and we hehold to-day the fourth effort to extend this road through Sampson to the sea But a recent trip to both ends and to several p lints along this line enables us to say as an eye wit ness that it is an effort this time that has passed the confines of uncertainty and is rapidly ap proaching acoinpleted realiza U9n. At wumingion we aepoi and ware-houses will be com pleted about the first of Decern ber, while the road is completed iand thenars for -passengers and freight are running over it up through New Hanover, Pender and up into Sampson beyond Black River, a distance of near ly forty miles. The trestle across this river is a quarter of a mile long and one of the pret tiest pieces of work in the State. At Fayetteville, the handsome and stylish depot which is near ly completed, reminds us of those seen along the rich and powerful roads North. The last pillar to support the four spans of the iron bridge over the Cape Fear is now above water, so that further progress will not how be delayed. One span' of the bridge is already up and I when others are in place, , track laying will also commence from that end of the road. At Parkersburg, a station on the road, forty-eight miles above Wilmington ana fourteen and a half miles south of Clinton, we find a section of country, which a few months since a quiet back woods, is suddenly aroused with the i elixir of progress ; by this great artery of commerce which will soon be throbbing through its midst Broad avenues which are being cut put" tbmugh the forest from different points of the compass, pointing to the sta tion, indicated that it is to the centre of trade."' commerce and thrift. The sound , of hammer and saw is heard and buildings axe going up - on both sides of . f v-; i 4 , 4 tte-uWjjjotungini-Mai i sent superintending some worfc, if lie was building another "Car olina (2?? -With a twinkle In his eye, which at the same time indicated a snttle humor, a fixed determination -and a tonfidence of success, - he replied m 8ection of Sarai,9M1 coantJ' aia not soon ooast or a inrivm town it would not bo hi fault The town is laid off in twenty squares, ten on each aide of tho railroad track. Each square U three hundred feet and is sub divided into bIx equal lota. Tbes squares are separated by twelve streots, which intersect each other at right angles. Com mencing on the Fayette ville side the streets running north and south across the track are first. second and third, Strange, and fifth streets; commencing on north side, Ihe streets running east and west parallel to track are Franklin, Charles, East Main, West Main, William, Gray and Murchison streets. . The depot is located between second and third streets, facing East Main street. Jnst opposite fac ing West Main street i3 the new store, of Col. Parker & Sons. We have never seen better material in any house than that of which this store is built. Mr. Charlie Parker is erecting a residence on tne corner or fetrange ana William streets. On the corner tliird and William street, Mr. H. Honeycutt is preparing to build a residence. On the corn er of third and Charles street Mr. Everett Turner will erect blacksmith shops. Mr. J. H. Royal has bargained for a lot on the corner of East Main and Seconds fctreets. Km tat corner of Strange and William streets col. rarser s sons win place a turpentine distillery. A htel will be erected on the corner of third and West Main streets, and large livery stables will be plac ed on the corner of W llliam and third streets, where horses and vehicles will oe kept for convey ing passengers between Parkers burg and Clinton. We under stand that contracts will soon be closed for some of the other lots of the remainder of the one hundred and twenty in tha town. About three hundred yards west of the depot is a beautiful ridge running parallel to the track, which will probably be the future Haymount of Park ersburg. Right through the middle of this ridge runs the historic "Negro Head Road," cut by Lord Cornwallis, from Wilmington to Lillington dur ing the Kevolutionary war. Around the base of this ridge are seven cool springs, which mean good water to the future residents of the place- This town will ?be -accessible from Bladen by Green's and Melvin's bridges. The crodsway at the former has been raised above high water, while a wide double track avenue has been cut out from it to the town. This place will also be easily reached from the section beyond the Coharies by McDaniers,Johnsons,Smith's, Eddy and the two Highsm ith bridges. Just to the east is the fine Ebenezer section, lving be tween the two Coharies The magical leap of the value of real estate around a place with bright prospects like this one is rather dazzling to the or dinary citizen. A few months since a man named Peterson, who owned one hundred acres of land, sold ninety-six acres at what he considered a big price, reserving four acres around his house. To-day he is offered more for the remaining four acres than he could have gotten a year ago for the whole tract. A man" named Furmage bought an acre a few weeks since beyond the limlts'of the' town, for 10. A few days afterwards he was offered S40 for the acre and is now refusing $75. We hope to see such develop ment-commenced and carried out around the otherstations of Aulryville, Owehville, Garland, Tommahawk and Kerrs in this county. There are three other stations on the road, viz: Bick ers, Liewis ana uurne. At Parkersburg we saw Mr. ltoDt. Strange, 1st assistant en gineer, and D. M. CHanlon, the resident engineer. They told us that they had one hundred convicts at work in this county alone and were laying one mile of track per day. By the 15th of January they expect the cars to s run J oyer tne ' entire line This done.' the C. F. & Y. V, Company .will have three hun dred ancT forty-one miles of the best, road in the State.

The grand stand, where the orations are to be delivere I is being put np on the west side of Market Square. The reviewing stand is on Hay Street, near the corner of Bur gess street The Market IIouso is the place where the old State House stood just one hundred years a so, and where the con vention met which adopted the Federal Constitution, after the ten amendments bad been se cured, through the efforts of liberty loving North Carolini an!. This was on the 21st of Nov ember 1789.So toNorth Carolina, the people of these United States are indebted to whatever of States RIgh ts are le ! t. The occasion is worthy of the des cendants of a grand and brainy ancestry. It should call forth the unbounded admiration and patriotism of the people of the whole State as it is doing. Mr. Marion Butler, the enter prisiner and brainer editor of The Caucasian was hereThurs day after special premiums for the Sampson Fair. I trust he was successful, though it must be remembered that our people, besides contributing to our own fair, have to bear an expense of nearly six thousand dollar for the centennial.

Davis, of La Grange was here Thursday making ar rangements with the military committee to bring his 200 ca dets to tne centennial, lnis is another attraction worthy of note. The "Book Reception" at. the Y. M. C. A. .Friday was a suc cess. A large crowd attenaea, each with a good book. The music by the young ladies and Novitzky's double male quar tetle was a very attractive fea ture. The gymnasium is com pleted, and a class organized. Mrs. and Mifs Barker gave an elegant reception Tuesday even- ng at the Hote .La Fay.jtte to Miss Mary Gray, of Greensboro. The young men also organized a "fox hunt," complimentary to her. Gov. Fowle will present to each of the four regiments, at the rentennial.a handsome Uui on flag, made of fine silk. Many of the companies, throughout the State, are drilling In order to compete for the military the largest pri z e being $200,-which will entitle the wiuniner company to the cham pionship. -The judges will be selected from all over the State.
