The old plan of ditching and ruining our upland*. tnuRt give way to the more practical ' plan of Having our soil by terracing.

The attendance of citizen* from the country was not large last Sal? Day. There Was n scarcity of money and there seemed to he1 no great anxiety on the part or our people m; to In debt. The sales of proi>erty Indicated i n downward tendency of real estate Irom for- j I mer prices. The farming lands whlcn were exposed to sale brought about half their J < estimated real value, while tlie villnce prop-j, ?*rty sold at not over fifty per rent, of the money which !t brought severnl years aco. j The agnregute sales of the estate of Jacob ji Kurr. foofit lip Si'.."12, being the proceeds of j the entire estate, except the homestead.

In the afternoon there were some visible ttlgn* of the ed'ect of intoxicating drinks, tlinuuh there was no disorder or disturbance | ^ of any kind. The Indian Doctor, and his negro minstrels j drew a crowd and attracted more or less attention all dnv. Their ostensible business was to sell medicines, but from their proceed-1 lug*, wo inferred that their object was to ii m use the crowd, and pull teeth purely for' the fun of it.

I It was Mnster* Charles Franklin Graves, William Oliver Grave*, Strawder Alexander Giaves, John Ilagun Graves, nnd Sidney Unpen e Klchey Graves, and not Mr. J. S.Grave*.1 th->t bought "Clifford Stiles" the thoroughbred i J? rs v. These >otiiiic lads nfter consultation ! tl ourht It better to pool their money and In-1 ve?t It In fine slock, than to spend their earn- ' lugs In guns. dog?, and powder and shot. These boys have made a good start, and If; they will stick lo their resolution to Invost In j fine slock, they will become rich men. It Is suild of the senior Rothschilds, when on his il*ath bed, that he told his sons to k?>ep their I fortunes together. and never make any linpor:ant transaction with-utconsult)tig their! mother, nnd assured them If they would follow this Injunction that they would become the richest men In the world. The boys did as their father cnlolned them, and his prophe has been fulfilled. His sons are now tho richest men In the world. The Farms and the Farmer*. The formers are now exceedingly busy In i their crops. The recent rains and the! prarclty of Inbor threw them behind with ' Ihelr farm work, but since the sun has come out-under more favorable weather they are working with might and main, picking cotton, how I tig small grain, grinding molasses,; gathering corn, pen?, and ijotnloex. The crops I promise well as a whole, though In somo lo-' calltles the crops are not so good. , Cotton is said lo be opening unusually fast, [ omo Instances ihe cotton Is rotting In , conscquence of the unfavorable weal her. The high price of animals together with i the low price of corn and other food supplies ! has encouraged our planters to enter more 1 largely Into the stock raising business, and I hundreds of farmers in the county will hence* I jr?Hth raise their own muleR and horses. Inj t'T.s course substantial prosperity is sure to come. A Worthy Example. Mr. A. T. Calhoun, son of I)r. Frank Calhoun, of Euhurlee, Georgia, Is one of the most j oneriretlc and successful young men with 'whom we are acquanted. He Is n student at Emory College, Oxford, Georgia, and ha* earned the money during vacation with which to pay his expenses. Baring ench vacation he seeks employment, and during the vacation Ju?t closed he came among our people, and sold 191 copies of Cram's Atlas, on the profits of which work he Is now with his comrades In the senior class of that excellent college at Oxford. His father was once a oltlr.en of Abbeville, ?nd the son I* a worthy donoendent of a noble family, wbo has proved that where there Is a will there Is a way to get aii education Id this land of schools and colleges. Jlnftniflcent Display of (?oo<l*. The stock of goods which Messrs. W. Joel Smith <t Son are offering aro ail that money and cultivated taste could buy In the biggest markets of the country. Their prices are so low that the cotton planter may buy a great deal even at the low prire of cotton. The store of the Messrs. Smith is an elegant one, und a plenslm: sight to look upon, as well as ? profitable place to-spend yoar money. All that heart could wish may be found in their more, wherea number of the most polite and obliging clerks await the pleasure of the cusftjiner. Blooded Rreed of Rat ft. Tho spirit of improving our breeds of stock ot all kinds is abroad in the land. Recently a woman appeared in town with a cage of ^ white rats, some of which have been bought by our progressive citizens.- It fs hoped that the white rats may m>t bo so pestlverous as tbe variety which has been among our people forages. The white rats are about the size of an ordinary rat,- but seems to be less apt to do harm. It tttey should take tho place of our old pests, wo mfght have reason to bo thankful. Tlx" Traffic In Seed Cotton. We loarn thw. the merchants and DOonle of >It. C'arincl, ami vfcmlty are determined to k put a stop to the nefarious practice of buying cotton in the night Mine, and are also determined that the traile in seed cotton in the day tiino must stop. So determined are these rpeopleon this point, that if persuasive means do not stop it, rhoy will tnost likely resort to extraordinary methods. The moral and material prosperity of the country demand that this truffle must stop. S. T. K. K. Ono hundred and fifty hands arc now at work on tiie Savannah Valley railroad laying the iron in the neighborhood of Little Jtlver. The in isons are at-work on the piers for tho iron bridge across ttie river. The bridge itself Is already at the river awaiting 1 he completion ol the piers.

This Information Is gathered from our leading merchants and cotton buyers, and Is! therefore authentic. We noticed an intensely personal para-' i^ruph in last weeks issue headed "a Green- j wood dot dotted'* and signed "Temperance."! Notwithstanding he stole upon and struck u?, ] from ambush, like a n assassin, being Bale-i ly ensconced behind a nomdcpluine as re- I mole from his true namons iho East is from j tho West, his identity is sulllclently clear to show that he belongs to thai class, Intended lo be reached by our "pointed allusions to the j trallc in whiskey" wherever it was car-1 ried on. Ho shows conclusively that he is not only iguorant of the law, but that his mind is wholly void of that power which enables men to reach logical conclusion. As will bo remembered wo expressed our opinion, as to the working of "local option" wherever it had been tried without any reference to any particular person or place, and was not supposed to speak from personal experience, which wo could have done with Impunity and consistency. "Temperance" hastnudotho application to Greenwood and to himself as well, and he endeavors to drag us into its vortex as a "good patron." If the horizon of our future was tinged by the roseate hues of political aspirations we might have greater causo to regret his having made such a startling (?) revelation through the columns of tho press. As wo have none of these, to he marred by hl6 disclosure extraordinary, we are content to rest, our case, with all our shortcomings? which i are as widely known as we are? with the j small circle of acquaintances we have, regard-1 less of the onluiou of strangers.

An Interesting feature of the meeting of tho Foreign Missionary Society last Th tired try evening was the presentation by a lady, through the Rev. \\ . I,.

She further stated that the original cost of her gift was ?10, and requested Mr. Pressly to withhold her name from the Society and the public. While listening to the reudlng of the lot tor ?vonr correspondent could hut conclude that the donor was Some a god saint, totteringupon the brink of the grave; one who had seen all her loved one's perish from her side, and having no near of kin through whom to hand down tills orecIouh gift of n sainted mother, had elected to present it to the Missionary Society, and by so doing honor the (iod whom sho served; one who doubtless can say, with the poot: "1 fei-1 llfco one who trouiln nlone Sumo banquet ball ilescrU-d) llclits ure Po.l, whoje gftriands dead, And nil but me departed." After feeling remarks had been made by Drs. (irler, Lit than and lloyee, a committee was appointed to dispose of tho gift to the best advantage mid tho Kev. \V. L. Pressly authorized to respond suitably to the letter he had read, the giver, on motion of Professor McCain, was made an honorary member of the Society.

The crop is, therefore, a painfully light one, with prices equally light. Outs are being sown somewhat earlier, and In larger quantity than usual In this section. The small yield ol the last crop Is charged largely to the lateness of the sowing last fall. The roots were too tender and shallow when the freezes came to survive the winter. This section will also fall In a crop of turnips this fall. The rains came too late for them to make roots before cold weather will stop growth. The heavy rains and winds of tho past week dealt roughly with what cotton was open in the Holds, scattering it fore and aft, making tho picking at -10 cents per KJO pounds a Blow way lo make a fortune.
