A private letter from a prominent guallemau at Englehard, Hyde county, says the Democrats in that county are all right. "We expect to give Simmons, For. lo and Skinner 500 majority." Wo were shown by Dennis Mackey, colored, of North creek, a curiosity in the shape of a hill of potatoes which contained 42 potatoes larger than a hen egg and a number of smaller ones. It was of the haman variety. Mr. Theo. W. Poole, cand idate for the Senate, aeldressed our citizens in the court house on Monday night last. He made an able and effective talk, which was listened to by a large assemblage of our people. Mr. Poole is doing good work in this canvass. The crops in Beaufort county are not so good, as was at one time anticipated. Tlie present eirought has cut them otf materially, even vhere they were prom ising tw o months ago. We are informed that the crops on South creek are better than for several years. Altogether the outlook is not promising. The Washington Light Iufantry have b ciar.-.l their intention of being pres ent at the inauguration of Clevelanel in Washington City, on the 4th of next March, and Captain Warren has ordered weekly drills of the company so as to l e in readin. -s for that important event.

An interesting record is that of severe , drought, as far back as the landing of ; the Pilgrims. How many thousand i times are observations made like the i followidg. "Such a cold season!" "Such a hot season 1" "Such dr iry . pi 'weather!" or "Such wet weather "Such high winds, or calms I " etc. All those who think that the dry spell we ! are now- navmg is tne longest ever i fenown. will do -wrelt to read th? follow- In the summer of 1621, 24 days in suc cession without rain. In the summer of 1630, 41 days in suc cession without rain. In the summer of 1657, 76 days in suc cession without rain. In the summer of 1662, 80 days in suc cession without rain. In the summer of 1674, 4 i days in suc cession without rain. In the summer of 1688, 81 days in suc cession without rain. In the summer "of 1994, 62 days in suc cession without rain. . In the summer of 1705, 40 days in suc cession without rain. In the summer of 1715, 46 days in suc cession without rain. In the summer of 1728, 61 days in suc cession without rain. In the summer of 1730,93 Jays in suc cession without rain. In the summer of 1741, 72 days in suc cession without rain. In the summer of 1749, 108 days in suc cession without rain. In the summer of 1755, 42 days in suc cession without rain. In the summer of 1762, 123 days in suc cession without rain. In the summer of 1778, 80 days in suc cession without rain.

No rain fell from the 1st of May to the 1st of September, making 123 days without rain. Many of the inhabitants sent to England for hay and grain. Lebanon i.Vn. l U'ader.
