They tell us that early in the 11 every one said "sow oats." Actg under this advice a large crop was at in and in most cases killed by tl e ild weather. It is not too late yet to pkc a fine oat crop and every farmer lows their value when corn gets brt daring the summer, and has to Ibrought on lien prices.

Woodward. ?We are pained to announce the death of Mrs. Rebecca M. Woodward, which occurred at the residence of Mrs. Andrew Mobley, of this county on Saturday last at o'clock, p. m. j Mrs. W. was the daughter of the late ! Hon. Edward P. Pearson, a prominent ] lawyer of the Winnsboro bar about fifty years ago, and granddaughter of the Rev*. Samuel TFhorter Yongue, the first pastor of the Presbyterian Church at this place. She was also the wife I of Judge Jno. J. Woodward, of Tal-i ladega, Alabama, who lost his life in i ??A%. ftf * Vxft rvf I lilt? laic war at iuc vi urhivu a \ Mill. She died of pneumonia, in the seventy-second year of her age. Her remains were brought down on the freight train on Monday and interred by the side of her husband in the Presbyterian grave-yard, where lie at rest many of her relatives of a generation ago. Peace to her ashes. The Skies ix February.?The present month does not fail to present objects of interest to lovers of the stars. The three planets Venus, Jupiter and Saturn, play prominent parts on its starry records. Venus, after her cimorh f?ai*0pp ns pvpnincr Star, fltsan ^ ? ? - * e ??j r | pears from the western sky only to j reappear before the month closes "under the opening eyelids of the morn." Saturn is on the meridian before 10 o'clock in the eveuing when the mouth commences, and after that time is beautiful to behold as he pursues his westward course among the stars. Jupiter is superbly brilliant as he makes his advent in the eastern sky a'mut the time that Saturn reaches the meridian, rises majestically toward the zsnith, and holds the sceplre of the skies as Saturn siuks out of sight. "While Venus passes inferior conjunction Mercury flits round superior conjunction, thus illustrating two important epochs in the movements of the iuferior planets. The moon is not to. be outdone by her superiors in the order of creation, and contributes her share to the entertainment of the month by occulting the planets Jupiter and Uranus and the bright star Aldebaran for observers on some portions of the earth's surface. The February full mcon will be lovely as she runs high in the heavens, floods the frostbound earth with silvery light, or casts blue shadows over its snowcovered land-scape. Thus planets, moon and stars unite in furnishing material for those who watch the c rnrse of the wondrous orbs that darkness reveals to admiring eyes. ITEMS FROM WHITE OAK.

I j Since our last items nothing of im! porfancfi has transpired in this vicinity. Last Sunday and Monday were two i very glooinv, dismal days, it appears ! that we arc destined fo hare more hard i weather this winter than usual, j Some farmers report their entire j crop of oats ruined by the late freezes j ?others, that they are willing to take | what thay sowed for their?, could they j ! have an opportunity of doing so. Fears J are also entertained by some that the : vhnaf croi) i* injured. If their pre- j i diction be true, after two j-uccessive i i short cotton crops, we must confess, | j that the farmer, who is the backbone j of the country is very nnfurtun ite. j On Friday the 22nd ulf., the still j belonging to Mr. W. D. Stack, run by | Mr. T. C. Edwards, one mile west of this place, was burner' with about i thirty-five barrels of rosin. On the plantation of Mr. M. liar- j mon an out house was consumed by ; ! fire last week. Some excitement was ! i caused, but as there was nothing of! much value in the house, the loss was j j small. The supposition is that it: | caught from a cabin near that was oc- : j cupied by negroes. Evervthing on Cedar Creek I believe j I " j is quiet. The cry in that section is j just about the same that it is in several j others?that their oats are killed asm j wheat badly damaged. Notwithstanding the cold weather J and financial depressions, the Pine Grove people are going ahead with | their new church. The benches have been made, and we understand the ! carpenters will at an early day com- j ple*e his work, save ceiling overhead, by putting in the pulpit. Rv Hip wnv we notice that Mr. T. C. i Lcitner is busily engaged in building, j He is erecting some snug little houses on his mothers premises. One wc j noticed particularly, he said was for a j fowl house, but it looked rather large.! As Tom has been going down on i Cedar Creek very often of late, proba- j bly he is going into the poultry busi- j ness. As we are giving von the news from this section, permit us to say that Mr. j T. M. Dunlap, who is a thirfty and j industrious farmor in this section, j baconed some hogs, the following is i their weights, ore weighing five hundred and seventy-five pounds. lie also had some pigs that were twelve months old, ihe largest of which weighed two hundred and eighty-one pounds. x. j Vfinri ?.. nV T7 f~! VT.T.fi. ! Messrs. Editors: Although I promised yon a letter from this section ; some time ago, everyting is so dull j and news so scarce that l have been : afraid to undertake the writing of a i news letter. It will scarceley be news j to say tnat tne grain nas an ueeu i killed, but "true it is, and pity 'tis, ?iis j true." There was a good acreage of: wheat and oats put in, but the hard j freezes of the winter have frozen out; the entire crop. The change in the lien law has has- i tened the coming of the day of settle- ; nient. It stole upon the people like a j - - - ,1 thiel in the night and they are not j prepared to pay up. Onr people have ! ventured "Like little wanton boys who swim on ! bladders These many summers on a sea of credit, But tar beyond their depth; Their high-blown pride has At length broke under them, Leaving them weary and poor, to the mercy . Of a rude" stream which will for a long time hide the n. Oh! how wretched is that poor man who hangs ori merchant's favors. There is betwixt that smile we would aspire to, That sweet aspect of merchant's and oar ruin t?c> tlin n irortj r r J.U.V1 c yctuga anu icmo wk?il tt hi o i wouieu have." The lien law, by giving a fictitious j credit to be made good out of a ficti- \ tions crop-, has encouraged ignorant j buyers to incur a load of debt which | it will take years to remove from their | shoulders. The giving of credit to i any man Deyona reasuuauie is a : dunble curse?it curses him that gives and him that receives. The lien law, ia its uses and abuses, gave such credit, besides divorcing labor from that intelligence necesarv to direct and control it. The Legislature which has go recently adjourned har been cursed and reviled in terms worse than any body of the kitr1 which has met since the days of Radii Jisrn, and principally on account of their action in regards the iien law. We think they did make a mistake in not wiping- it out entirely, but the supporters of it made a hard fight; and we should be content with the little that has been done and hope for better luck next time. The farmers of a country are called the bone and sinew of the country, and they well deserve this uame when by fVintr fni*iiLh flip JCll/VA HICJ JUl ?MV M> EAV.VW necessary to support life. Every man should aim to make enough to support himself and his family and all that he raises over and above the amount necessary for these wants should give him his income. Our people have lost sight of this end and have allowed their planting operations to be governed by the fluctuations of the cotton market. Like a desperate gambler who ventures his all on the turn of a in thp h.-?r>p nf rermimin.cr his for tune, they have devoted all their time and attention to the making of cotton, but they see that they have been plaving a losing game, and now in their despair they turn on their law-makers who by the repeal of a law, which encouraged them in their downward course sought to stop them. Still the repeal of the law, by forcing Ue day of settlement, ha? caused a <rood deal of suffering and this will be a hard year. But the people arc very little worse off than they were after Sherman's raid, when it was necessary for s. crow to bring his rations under his wing when he came into this part of tho n-nrlil. | There is much discontentment among the negroes, and a few miles above this point numbers have gone to Arkausas, though from this neighborhood only a few have left. The negro *hot by Mr. Free is improving rapidly. The wound was not as severe as was first supposed. The political pulse is scarcely perceptible in this section. The voters of this district have done away with the special tax for the support of the Monticello School. The letter of Mr. Douglass has been very farorable commented upon; now that it has been shown where the | responsibility resrs lr is nopea mat j : some pressure will he bronsht to bear [ ; on the Boards which will cause them J ! to make a more just distribution of j | the taxes. The is some little feeling in this part | of the world antagonistic to the AdI ministration, but it has not developed I into anything which would lead to a break in the ranks to follow even "an agricultural Moses" who was seeking I political office. a. t.
