It abounds In talas 2* adventure, is fasciqptiag descriptions of the Mimderiof the deep sen, and visits to strange coasts.

Books of this sort, ^•t aatiafy the boy’s instinctive reaving for adventure, sad at 3» torn preserve a pare. Wholesome. SitBAtnh»ra m w m rare enough that none can afford to be overlooked. But, as tke author says, this ts by >o means a book exclusive ly ** boy*, tko. to my know ledge. it has held spell bound, a boy of nine and u youth of twen tynme.

Tbe author's style is delightful. ■ , e. s*?*4 timid, sentimental, gir l will brook its harrowing see* fights for th* sake of its beauti fy descriptions. Listen to this:' "By those lovely days spent in softly gliding over tbe calm, tsars depths, bathed in golden *uBlight, gasiog dreaaiily down d the indescribable beauties of the living reefs, feasting daintily on abundance of never-doyiug bait, amid scenes of delight hardly to be imagined by the moped, mind of the town dweller; islands, air. and sea, all mumnar in an enchanted haae, and sueace scarcely broken by the trader ripple of the gent toarted waters before the boat’s steady keel-thougb those joys have an been lost to am and I, m "popoloae city pent” endure tbe fading years, I would not barter the memory of them for more then I era say, so sweat it is Co me.” All will be interested in tbe tray worthy information the lwok has to-give. Rudyard Kip bag says of tt. "It is immense —there is-wo other word. It is a new world that the author has opened the door to.” 'Rsadeb. . HIM SCHOOL CLOSES. OVEt Of EAST 6ASTON. PsiUif the New Road—Cake MiWtoo Hn way |» Ej«a Mi Crackara—Faraaera te East Gaston, March 11. -Capt. Eddie man baa been moving thing* on the road for the last two weeks, having done more work with hit gang than he had done for a month before. He hat so far proven very accomo dating with the people along the line, by making the roed at the most suitable place for those it goes by. Rev. E. N. Crowder and wife oMIount Holly, apeat oae day this weak at Open View. Mias Cox, of Cabarrus coun ty. who has for some time been visiting Sir J. A. Davenport, spent one evening this week at Open View the guest of Miss Ella Abernathy. Mias Nannie Par ria and Mr. Ita Davenport ac companied her. While there the old rule of bringing oat the wine and cake waa suspended, aad instead a kettle of several dozen eggs were boiled, and eaten with soda crackers and pepper and salt; all present en joyed this treat. Next Saturday evening, the ■UKa, M z o'clock tbe cotton fanners of River Bead town, ship will meet at Mount Holly to transact aacb basinets as will come no before the meet* log. We are glad to note that the farmers are bolding ont so well in this movement. They bare only got to be as firm as they have been to win one of tbe greatest fights tbat they have ever wiged. Theodore Price, one of the greatest cotton kings of Wall street, sent ont circulars tbe first of tbe year, saying tbat tbe tinners would have to go down, and that they would sell tbeir cotton for 5J* to 6 cents per pound, before March 1st. Now this same man is making tbe effort of hie life to get spot cotton to fill orders with. Onr advice to tbe farmers is to bold their cotton, and let Theodore go. And it bis partners want cotton let them offer to pay for if. We are tired of bearing the ■till man say be is in sympathy with tbe farmers and hopes tbat they will win ont, and still will not buy a bale of cotton, till they can bear from some specu lator or gambler. Away with such rot my friends, aad pay tbe farmer what yon can for his cotton, regardless of the gamblers who have brought on the present bad state of affairs. ■ In oar neck of the woods, the people seemed to be at esse dor tag the sitting of the General Assembly. We knew that the men we had there would do ns so great damage, hence it is tbat we all rested easy. Some laws they pasted will be of great benefit to tbe farmers, as* pccially the one relative to i tenants breaking tbeir con tract* after beginning a crop. We hear but little being said about a bond issue. We don’t know whether it will cany or not We 4rfll only ask the people to J* ewefol aad make no mistake in this adventure. It is a big ttodertaking to run our future —ink Hi l/maa lot • t— there that can be left them that will do more good than food roads? We are for good toads, food schools and food churches, for the three combined stake the greatest in stitutions we haye. If they give as three hundred thousand dol lars worth of roads at once, this with the two hundred thousand or thereabout already spent will make at Jeeat a half million spaut in mads including the interest oo the debts. When this is done oar people mast have a new court boose, tbst will coat no less than $30,000. Wk mbit have new school build ings so Prof. Hall baa sag fasted and have longer and oattar schools.
