Jievo to boe the very enroor ine wouy, (how they are to build a city upon it, doesn't come belbre me to decide.) But, sir, they are mistaken. Salt Lake is tint the centre o, the globe, and to save them from any further trouble about the na:ter, I will tell them where the centre is. It is here, sir, risht here where - am now standin'-that is. if we may put any de pendance on the movements of the clmoudk; for every cloud that rises, no matter at what point-of the horizon, it seems to me, is sure to centre right here: and if several rise at difTerent points. it is here that they meet and empty themselves. 13encne I conclude, that here must be the centre of the globe. But. he that as it may, we -have certainly had a ereat deal of wet weather during the last four -veeks. and some of the heaviest rains. perhaps that have ever been witnessed by the posttdi lnvian world -such rains as I, at least, have seldom, if ever, seen fall before. Our fields are very much washed. We have no need to trouble ourselves further about hill-side ditching We have ditches now, and those of the deepest sort. Yet, Mr. Editor, the crops I ok well, can unusually so; and cotton, though it has been considerably retarded in its growth by the wet, is more forward than it was at this season last year. I saw blooms on the 18th of this month. The cotton crop is abundant. Most sincerely yours, YE. BA. From the Anderson Gazette. ATROCl US MURDER. Vehave never terhaps heard of a more cold-blooded, fiendish murder than wats committed, on Friday last, in the neigh hourhood of Picketsville, on the body of Robert Wilson. The perpetrators of the deed, Carroll Henderson and John Hen derson had had some altercation wit h Wil son. previously respecting some family dit ficulty ; and instigated or encouraged by their farther. had deliberately threatened his life. On the morning of that day. the two brothers set out fro'n home it search of Wilson and found him in his field at work, with no one present but aboy about filieen years of age. They rode up to the fence. and called for Wilson to come to them when they renewed the quarrel. After pats. ing a few words, one of them knocked W. down with a rock, and then jumped on him with a knif)literally butchered hitn on the spot. Tisy boy ran of! to t he nearest neighbour's hoase, albout a quarterof a mile distant, and gave the alarm, when two gentlemen proceded itmd tamy.!ij tot th" place, but-were only on the ground in time to see the un',rtunate mann breathe his last. One of the murderers was a brothter i law of the deceased. Two of the men implicated, John lien derson and farther are now in Pickips jail, and we understand that Carroll Hender son has been arrested in Greenville. We trust-they may receive the full deserts of the dreadful crime."
