Details: Very dry weather is the sad remark introductory to all conversation here, whether between old friends or strangers. Evan the black native joins in the lamentation, but there is a sly expression or conscious mimicry in his eye which assures you that he, at least is only pretending to look before and after, and sigh for what is not. Our sable brethren by the bye, are turning the lowness of the river to good account, by dragging the holes with a net, which they carry about with them in a basket. They boast of not having left a fish between this and Singleton. Having spent a few days here in fishing by day and drinking rum by night, they have gone higher up the river, promising if they can find a market for their fish to have a good spree on their return. Billy Good-day, the black who lost his arm in Maitland is apparently the leading man of the party, being the owner of lessee of the fishing net. A friend of mine endeavoured to reason with Billy on the folly of spending his earnings in rum, instead of buying tea and sugar, shirts, and such like solid comforts; but billy answered, Murry fond of rum, massa; blackfellow always buy rum always!, laying an emphasis on the last word, as if twas written in the book of fate, and there fore useless to talk of altering it.
