Ratheu Rough. A 1 short time since a young woman clad in black and calling herself the widow of Mr. ., asked for board at the house of Miss an an cient maiden lady. Filled with feeling and nothing loth to "increase her store" by board money ; the sympathetic spinster gave bed and board to the interestinc relict of the departed . A few weeks after ob- taining rooms; the interesting widow was taken sick aud to the horror of Miss - "a fine boy " wa3 born into the world. Nursed carefully, the mother and child did well, and so well indeed that atter a few more weeks the widow went out for a walk and has not yet" returned. Miss ., is minus her board, but she has ua fine boy," and plaintively remarks: "I suppose wid ows will have children but why not keep them alter they have got 'em." - N. B.

TEN DOLLARS lEWARD j for the con viction of any one stealing the Post from the doorsteps of our subscribers i Excelsior Plantation Hon. George Z. French's Enterprise Forty Thous and Quarts of Str a wherries! I The pur chase of the old Lane place by Hon. George Z French, some three years since, and his announcement that a large fruit; farm would be started was received with sneers by many and uncharitable remarks by; 'all the old fogies who were so wedded tci their idols that nothing new or; savoring of improve- mcnt would or could seem practicable or desirable. With patient courage; indicative of the man, Mt French has progressed until at the end of the third year he shows as the fruit of his labors forty thousand quarts of straw berries shipped to New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore, and enough green peas to supply all bur markets south of the Roanoke. Ten thousand peach trees will hear this year, and apples, pears and Concord grapes will keep his two hundred tenants engaged late into the season. 7 The evident success of Mr. ; French'3 ex periment opens up new inducements to new settlers, and we hope that others will be tempted to invest capital and brains in de veloping our too long neglected country. It is the opinion of Mr. Aull,. the superintend ent of Excelsior that no part ot the country or the world is so adapted ;to the culture of fruit as the county of New Hariover and the" lower Cape Fear. Hr. Aull has been a prac tical gardener in New York,! New Jersey, Mobile and the ; West Indies, and he de clares he Vncver beheld such' quantities of fruit or averaging so large" as on the Ex celsior plantation I; v ! The case with which ordinary field hands and their children can be taught the culti vation of fruit and the higher branches of agriculture is testified to by Messrs. Aull a ; aud Gamberger; the latter & German gen tleman of manv vears exoerience m- the management of farm laborers. - This again knocks on the head the theories of those who prate about the "want of proper labor." Only let the drones put their shoulders to the wheel and display half of Mr. French's energy and" all their difficulties will disap. pfer and the very garden of the earth w il grow right on the Cape Fear. . , 7 " A remarkable end rather.- Proridentia fact appears in the escape of the Excelsior fruit from the hail storm of last weekt that swept oyer and almost , destroyed, the vines and fruits ion the Castle Hayne place; thus it would seem that patient ton and faith in the futureis bouqid . to; be rewarded even when these virtues -arc exhibited by a "car- pet Dagger.' bo be - Let it be recorded!

It is no mere senseless fault-finding;. it.is something deeper, more deliberate and determined. The; character of the State, ahd the most vital interests of the people are involved. 7 j Clearly then the remedy for the wrong we have suffered lies in the selection of our Representatives! It is by reason of our own default that wo have been represented by men with whom" a large portion of the bet ter class of society would not associate. But then it is 'useless and it. is not very manly in us, to complain of and abuse the weak and incompetent men whom we have heretofore sent to Raleigh and invested with the most sacred trust committed to our care. Did we all do our personal duty the gov ernment of this State would reflect credit on every , citizen of it, would cost little or nothing and wclild in a short time, by the judicious development of our I resources bring wealth and prosperity to all. No man would commit ! his private busi ness to the management of the class of men .to whom we habitually commit the manage ment of our public affairsi.
