Tho various Boards of Registration in this Dis? trict have completed their first round of appoint? ments, and-on.Monday last began their second and last tour. Wc presume that it is hardly necessary to present any argument, at this late day, to in doco persons to register their names, if qualified to do so, whether or not they intend to participate in the coming elections. All havo agreed long Since that it is an imperative duty to bo properly qualified by registration, in order that none shall "?oluntarily become disfranchised, and thereby pre? vented from aiding in the future conduct of Stato and municipal affairs. But wo desire to state that, in the opinion of some of the registrars, the bull: of colored voters have already registered, and thai the large majority of persons expected to register now will probably bo white voters. Beyond tt doubt, the colored vote in this District will be con? trolled in tho interests of tho Republican party, and since the difference between the colored and 'white registered vovers is quite small at this time, .v5t behooves every man desirous of defeating that -jarty, to place himself in proper position, where his influence will be felt. For a time, the negroes 'Triirbe carried away by Radical influences and "Union Leagues;"and it is highly probable that strict party linos-will be drawn. If this bo so, and ?the whites expect to control the District, they can onTy accomplish .that "end by registering in full force. Unless we arc willing to see the District and municipal ofEces in the hands of incompetent men, none should fail to assist in making the white majority decided and beyond contingency. We traefc-that' every white-man in- the District will pro perly appreciate the situation, and govern himself accordingly. I ?'OnB.COTJNTRT EXCHANGES." - Ii was our intention to take cognizance of the unnecessary and unauthorized statement made by the Charleston JSTewi in reference to tho course pursued by this and'other journals upon the ques? tion of-Reconstruction, but tho Columbia rhanix has so thoroughly exposed the course of the News, and shown that "people who live in glass houses should not throw stones," that wo are oontent to endorse tho articlo of our Columbia cotcmporary. We will remark,, however, that the Intelligencer has at least been consistent in its bearings towards tho military authorities, and has not songhtthe "thrift" whioh "follows fawning." In advocating an ac? ceptance of tho Reoonstruotion measures by the pCOpl0 of this State, wo bavo endeavored to keep aloof from any endorsement of tho Republican j party or its aotions, and havo neither insulted the good aenso nor wounded the foelings of an op? pressed people 'by laudatory comments npon the magnanimity and generosity of the oonqnorors. We copy from the Phoenix : Wo find tho following remarkablo and vory solf complacent paragraph in an editorial &j^lo iQ *ne Charleston News, of Wednesday: - "A slight change of sentiment is poroeptiblo in the editorial management of our country exchanges. From violent opposition to the military bill, thoy have drifted into silence, and, in a few instances, have been emboldened to advocate its measures as tho only basis of fee onstraction that can be ex? pected. The Columbia Phoenix, the Anderson In? telligencer tho Sumter News, and the Winnsboro Tri- Weekly News, have ohanged their tactics in this respect more fully than their cotemporaries." On what meat has our Ccosar fed, that he deigns to notico tho "slight ohange in sentiment" in his "country" exchanges ! Was it the pap reoeived under tho just defunct regime, when the News fancied itself "the power bohind the throne ? What? ever tho jnutriment may havo been, it has set tho vanity of our cotemporary upon a lofty pair of stilts, and, high up in mid-air, ho complacently condescends to noto tho change of tactics in his more humbloand unpretending cotemporaries? "our country exchanges." Unfortunately for ;,the truth of history," and for the reliability of the allegations of this mag? nate of South Carolina journalism, his assump? tions, as far as the Columbia Phccnix is concerned, aro not founded in fact. This journal has con? stantly advocated reconstruction under tho laws of Congress, whatever may have been the opinion of its "editorial management" as regards tho right of justice of said enactments. Has tho News been as consistent ? We have noted its "slight change of sentiment" towards the setting sun?the dethroned monarch?and now, that wo are provoked to it by tho fling of the News, wo will watch, with some little interest, his attitudo of worship to tho rising luminary. Brother! "why beholdest thou the mole that is in thy brother's eye, but considcrost not tho beam that is in thine own eye V ?-? EXPERIMENT TN WHEAT CULTURE. Wo are indebted to a friend for the following letter from Dr. A. C. Fuller, of Laurens District, an experienced and practical farmer. It would give us great pleasure to enrich our columns with just such information as tho Doctor gives, and ! enable us thereby to assist in the work of recu? perating and energizing farming operations in this section: Lachens District, S. C, August 20, 1807. ' Hon. R. F. Simpson?Dear Sir: Your favor of the 25th ult., making inquiries concerning a certain experiment in growing wheat, I had made, came duly to hand, and would have been answered at once, but for the hope that, by a short delay, I might bo ablo to furnish more fully the informa? tion sought. I had stored the crop off the land experimented upon separately, with the view of threshing it when tho work was over with the corn fand cotton. Last week I started tho hands to threshing the premium wheat, as wo called it, and j gave them instrnctious sufficiently plain to avoid the risk of mixing it with tho other wheat, and stepped out doors to avoid the dust, but shortly af? terwards found, notwithstanding, that by a blun? der, they had got it mixed up. I cannot, therefore, give you the yield, nor answer tho inquiries you wore pleased to honor me with, as satisfactorily as I desire. Tho land sown was about 1\ acres, branch bottom, cleared about 12 years; the quality of tho soil generally good and well drained. The soil is a sandy loam and has been manured two years since it was cleared. It was in corn last year, and tho land wa3 prepared by plowing down the ridges with the common bull-tongue plow. The I grain was then sown, one and a half bushels, red May wheat, to the acre, and plowed in cross-wise with tho samo plow. On the 27th of March a top dressing of 100 lbs of Ford's Superphosphate of lime, per acre, was applied broad-cast. I think, ordinarily, the land would raako from 10 to 15 bushels of jwkeat per aore. Several farmers who saw the. growing orop, the present year, pro? nounced it the best they had ever seen grow in j this country, and expressed the opinion that tho best aero would yield thirty bushels. I think, myself, tho best aero did make, at least, twenty five bushels. In instituting the experiment my theory was this: I thought by seeding heavily, so as to subdue the growth of weeds, and then sus? taining tho crops by manures, so as to bring it to tho fullest physical development, it must necessa? rily make a large yield ; and by applying concen? trated manures as a top-dressing, after the frosts have abated, when the soil is left in an open porous condition, ready to absorb whatever nutri? ment may be supplied, and the period of active growth has set in, you escape the wasto from leaching rains, during the comparatively dormant season of the plant, and realize the good effcetB of your manure until full maturity. I used the su? perphosphate of lime, becauso I did not fear injury in applying it to tho growing crops, bul I should anticipate harm from Peruvian Guano, applied in tho same way. I have not tried the latter, but would not hesitate to do so when composted with rich loam, lot manure, coal dust, or whatever would tend to neutralizo its caustic qualities ; and would prefer to use it as a top-dressing the 1st of March, and should expect better results than when put in with the wheat in the fail. Having made this experiment with no thought of ever reporting it, or that others would manifest any interest in it, I have not been so particular in preserving the details, as perhaps, I would havo been. But, such as it is, I give it to you, and trusting, if there is anything of value in it, your practical judgment, will both climinato and develop it for tho good of our poor country. Very respectfully, Your ob't serv't, A. C. FULLER. -?? SPECIAL CONVOCATION. There will be a special Convocation of Burning Bush Chapter, No. 7, R. A. M., held in the Chapter Room on Saturday, 21st instant, at 2 o'clock p. m. Membere are requcitcd to bo punctual in atten? dance^ For the Anderson Intelligencer. TO THE PEOPLE LIVING NEAR THE SALTJDA RIVER. For upwards of thirty years you have been de? prived of tho delicious food that river formerly furnished you in Shad. You have been prosperous and did not so much need them. But are you so now ? Why, then, are not the proper steps taken to have a fish sluico mado in the dam across the river noar its mouth. In a cursory examination of the laws on the subject, it was found that in 1827, (P. S. vol. C: pago 340,) that a law was passed appointing commissioners for Saluda from its mouth up to tho Newberry line, to see that fish s!uicc3 sixty feet wide were opened in any dam across Saluda within their boundary. Commis? sioners were appointed and required to act under a penalty; but they were by the law to hold their office for threo years only. In the year 1830 they went out of office, and I have not found where any other commissioners havo boon appointed. The Bamo law authorized tho abatement, as a nuisance, any dam aoross that river. But who is to do it ? what is every man's business is no? body's business. Is it not tho avowed purpose of tho papers published in the State to furnish infor? mation to their subscribers? Will the Editors of tho papers in Anderson, Abbeville, Lexington, Nowbcrry, Laurens and Greenvillo call the atten? tion of thoir subscribers to this subject, so that the remedy may bo discovered and applied. If now legislation be nooessary, let petitions from eaoh of the Districts abovo named be prepared and sent to our next Legislature, demanding that Saluda shall bo opened for the freo passago of Shad. If, however, on examination it shall bo found that tho dam oan be abated as a nuisance, as tho laws now stand, can it be that there is no lawyer in the above named District who has cnongh of patriotism, and who has a sufficient love of justice and equal rights, to publish to the people interest? ed the mode by which this remedy can be carried out without a fee ? Yes, I can bear tostimony to a muoh greater share of patriotism in that class than this small demand upon them would seem to require. I feel that it is not neoessary (o enlarge on the valuo of our rivers as a source for food; and if these suggestions shall havo tho effect to call the attention of tho people interested to the subject, my object will havo been answered. A RESIDENT OF ANDERSON DISTRICT. -o ANDERSON, PICEENS AND GREENVILLE. The following statement show3 the total number of voters registered in tho abovo Districts, up to tho 31st of August, and including the registration of last week for this District: Anderson, 1,473 whites, and 1,317 blacks; Fickcns, 1,410 whites, and G58 blacks; Greenville, 1,080 whites, and 888 blacks. Majority of whites in threo Districts, 1,100.' -o From the Newberry Herald. TO THE PUBLIC, Tho following correspondence will explain itself: j Newberry S. C, Sept. 2, 18G7. \ To the Editor of the Newberry Herald: Sir?1 call your attention to an articlo under the Editorial head of your paper of the 21st of Au? gust, ultimo, in which I am grievously defamed. The article to which I call your attention refers to W. J. Armstrong as well as to myself, but Mr. Armstrong must defend himself. It is my duty to defend myself, and I havo como here for that pur? pose Amongst other things in this article, you said, "true to their proclivities and the party rep? resented, they (meaning Mr. Armstrong and my? self) approached from the roar?came in at the back door?and without knocking or warning of approach ; and after discharging their filthy reptile spawn, slipped off as they came like thieves in tho night, never once showing their faces in town, or giving any ono Jin opportunity of answering or ro butting their falsehoods." The closing sentence of this libellous thing is as follows : "The whole talk, wc arc informed, was a tissue of falsehoods, vituperations and incendiary advices, which wo rejoice at not having heard." I made no false statements?I uttered no vitupe? ration?nor did I givo any incendiary advices. I did not come in at tho back door?I discharged no filthy, reptile spawn ; I did not slip off like a thief ,n the night; I came in broad day-light; I used no unbecoming epithets, but spoko with a tender regard for the feelings of all present, whether con? curring with me or difTering frommein sentiment. What, then, I feel I havo a right to demand of you on my own behalf, is a full and complete re? traction of tho libel, in tho next issuo of your pa? per. My friend, Capt. James D. Tradcwoll, will hand you this note. The answer to which I expect to rcccivo promptly at Mr. Pool's Hotel. Respectfully, T. J. ROBERTSON. Newberrt, S. C, 8ept. 2, 1867. To T. J. Robertson? Sm: Your noto of this date has bcon handed mo by Mr. James D. Tradcwcll.

To Thomas F. Grcnckcr? Sin: Nothing short of a full and complete re? traction of your grossly libellous article, found in your issue of the 21st August last, will satisfy me, and as you cannot comply with uiy demand, you shall take tho consequences. T. J. ROBERTSON. Wc do not know what the dire consequences are with which wo arc threatened, as the "future mem? ber of Congress" left the town within five minutes after the delivery of his second communication. -o? New Yobk, Sept. 7. The election in Canada yesterday resulted in riots at Montreal, Griflintown, Clarence and other points. The disturbances were not very serious, though several persons were badly injured. A Montreal despatch gives the particulars of the riot, yesterday. About a dozen of the rioters were captured by the soldiers, and the police were only witli diibcully saved from the vengeance of the en? raged citizens, who threatened to lynch them. One policeman was killed. About thirty serious casu? alties and half a dozen gun-shot wounds arc re? ported as the sum of injuries sustained by the citi? zens. The passenger train on the Naugatuck Railroad broke through abridge near Thomaston, Conn., yesterday, and the baggage car fell into the river, carrying with it sixteen persons. It was swept over the dam, and floated three miles from the scene of the accident, when it was secured, but only five persons were found clinging to it. The rest are supposed to have been drowned. -?* San Francisco, Sept. 7. The entire Democratic State rloket hae been elected by aboui 0,000 BiaJerUj. STATE NEWS. ?
