C. s visiting some of his people in this lection, and while here he went iround to see some of his white 'riends, notably the family of people vhom he used to belong to before he war and whom he worked for for iome years after.

These old former slaves genially liked to go back home, and generally have great respect for heir "people," and will grasp your land in a warm handshake. They ire in possession of more manners, laving been raised and I know seviral who will brag about the "white oik" raising them about the house.

Just after the rain passed Pacolet the porter leard a groaning, distressing cry or help under the train as it sped dong and he reported the noise to he conductor, who pulled his bell ord and stopped the train. The rainmen and some of the passengers ;ot out and looked under the train tut could neither see nor hear anyhing unusual. They all got aboard ;nd the train sped along and pretty : COUNTY | soon the same kind of noise was heard under the train again and the ' train was stopped a second time and examined under the coaches but no one was there to make any noise and then it was suggested by one of the passengers that it was a ventriloquist and the train moved on with- ' out any more noise. A passenger that was on the train told me that ' there was a dressed up mulatto ne- < gro on the train and he was seen 1 to wink at another negro and he is 1 believed to be the fellow that caused ' the trouble. , Good rains have fallen over the j county during tne last week that ? have improved the crop condition j very much and put farmers to work in earnest.
