CITY MARKET A Brutal King. A PECULIAR PEOPLE. Queer Wuyeof l.ivlng on the Hattrrae Hanke- Hoge and Cattle. (From the Raleigh N«* wh and Observer. ] The people of thia region are of an awphibtotu nature, and live so much on and in the water that moat of them, I am anre, ure web-footed. They live mainly on fish, clams, ovatera, crabs, terrapins aud wild fowl. When they leavo home they go in a boat, and whether they go to court or go courting, or to trade, or to the mill, or to a funeral, they always go by Bail. Their corn-mills are run by anils, aud some of them pump their water with windmills. They don’t go upstairs, but “go aloft,” and when they go to bed they “turn in;’’ when they are ill they are “ under the weather, aud when in robust health they say they ure “ bung up aud bilge free." They apeak of a trim-built sweetheart us “clipper built.” If she is a little stout they say she is “broad in the lieaiu,” or alie is “wile across the trinsow.” Many of them have ships’ cabin doors m their bouses, that slide on grooves, anii to their builuings they give a coating of ter insti ail of painting then’. Thu “old woman ” blows u couch Bin'll whi n din in r is reatlv, ami they measure time bv “bells.” Their balms are not rocked in cradles, but swung in hummocks They clu w black pig-tail tobacco a>.< drink a wild tea culled “Yeopon." Thei ninnnre their land with ssu-graas and bury their yam potatoes in the saml hills. When they want a doctor tliei hung a red Hug against a hillside as ‘ aiguul of distress. If he don't come, be cause tho “ wind ain’t fair,” they take n dram of whisky tutd copperas, soak their feet in seawater, “turn in,” anil tmst to luck. If they die they will Ire buried on the top of a sand ridge, anil wlier- you see several soil boat« on the water in procession, with a ting at half mast, you are looking at a funeral. They ornament their houses will, whales' ribs and jaws, sharks’ teeth, swordfish snouts, devilfish arms, snwfisii swords (six feet long), miniature «hip; camphor-wood chests, Honduras gourds spy-glasses, ¡South American lari its, war clubs from the Mozsuibique islands Turkish pipes, West India shells, san dal-wood boxes, Chinese chessmen. Japanese faces, Madagascar idols, Aus traiian boomerangs and other strange, outlandish tilings. Their hogs ar. raised ou clems, mussels, offal of fish a ul garbage, and their cuttle wade out ou the shoals for miles, whsre the water covera their liocks, to feed on sea grass, and if they are carried up-country and fed ou corn and fodder they will not live. Every man is Captain of Boine kind of a boat, and “ she " is always better than any other bfcat in some way. “ She is lim’d to beat in a gale of wind,” or “ be- f<ire the wind,” or “boating to wind ward.” or “ with the wind on tho beam,” or “ she can sail closer to the wind,” or “ will carry sail longest,” or “hard to beat iu a light wind,” or “totes lucre stock,” or is “stronger,” or “dryer,” or “bigger,” or “she is a big little bout,” or ” draws the least water,” or “needs less ballast,” or “she is the newest," or “has the beet timbers,” or “ steers the best,” or “she is a lucky boat,” or " stands ut> better,” or “needs less sail than any other boat,” or “ she is best for • fishing,* fishing," ’ eto. etc. Perhaps “she comes about ” ‘ better than ” any other boat." She is Ixinnd to have something ______ about her better than anybody else’» boat. The King is rapidly growing mail. He cuts off the noses of those who take snuff, and the lips of those who smoke.
