tion, and I. speak' a cordial welcome and
unstinted . hospitality, for this Island Is as
hospitable, and make-you-feel-at-bome as
any place I ever Baw or at least lived at. ,
' The mumps, or something like it, has
been very prcilent, many older as well as
the ohildren. 1 - ; . ' " ";
Two Sunday schools well attended,' No
shops of any kindr and, While there are
hogs and quite a number of sleek eattle,
there is not a single horse. 1 teach on Big

couple than he and his most excellent
wife. In fact thij is almost, an exception
able neighborhood, on an average.
' f have about SO pupils, an average on
account of the mumps, of about 20 mostly
boys and girls. -' .
-The Island is densely woeded and cover
ed with a 'luxuriant undergrowth. Here
the. live oak is in its glory, for it, I think,
the mo st beautiful, shady tree I ever saw
of a natural growth.. . We have some beau
tiful vistas offered to onr admiring gaze, o
hill; yes, miniature mountains, . and their
deep ravenej so green from its very inten
sity, it seemeth of a blackish hue; while
in the distance the waters of the different
sounds appear as if blended into one, wbsn

the dunes of sand I Band ! I sand ! 1 1
Life Saving Station No. 13, or Kill Devil
Hill, is nearly abreast, East about miles,
airline, though marshes and a skirt of
woods intervene.
. Only a garden spot or so is cultivated
here. Boat building, Asking, clamming
and such are chiefly pursued. On the
whole, existence is prosaio, rather monoto.
,nons, yet free from strife and wrangles,
arid, though uueventfulv yet the busy,
throbbing world, with which we have hard
ly ought In Unison, may well envy us our.
freedom" from the vexatious worries,. whioh
them so harrass. . , v. .. ;
The Beacon feas lately re-shed its rays
o'er my before darkened literary path, aud
I greatly rej-ipo thereat. I cordially sec
ond the name of A. O.Njajloj-d i for Solicits.
His geniality, legal and genernT acumen,
energy, and fealty to "the cause" deserves
recognition, and shonld ensure success.
There is found here a plant, whioh, in
the vernacular is termed "The Palmeier,"
though I presume, idenlioal with the em.
blem of the Palmetto State. It grows to
at altitude of from 4 to C feet, then the
leaves branch and assume a fan-like shape,
the. stems being grooyed, and after being
cut. and dried, make good, serviceable
brooms,' more durable and' effective than
our straw, by far.
) How are politics, gently simmering, or
about zero f Here I hear nothing as yet,
though Dare may be safely counted as be.
ing on the right side of the fenoe, and I
think Currituck, also, though the Populists
and disgruutled Democrats are more numer.
Ous than one might suppose. Will not
Washington come to the front again this
year?. W have no titles, in this county,
but let us try and have a Gay-Lord to So
licit boarders for the brick hotel.
