THE HOG KARTRT.
We~ copy thme following fromt the Cincinnatir
l'rire Currenit:
-The feelitng itt the market for hogs fair Novem- *
baer delivorv conitintues very utnsettled, there being '
few butyesat any price, andeeveral sellers. Some
contracts hatve been made within the last two !
weeks at $6i per ewt. ntet, November delivery, but!
we believe there are no buyers at this prico now.
The unsettled state and great uncertainty as re
gards the future of financial matters, deters the
packers front making any contracts. and leads to
a disposition on -their part to hold off for the pur
pose of being able to witness unembarrassed the
result of this financial crisis. The corn crop is ~
now matured and may be considered the best ini
qutality, and the large~st in qutatntity, ever raised
in the country, by say twenty-five per cenat., and
thme itndications are quite concelusive that it will d
rtule at extraordinary low prices, thtus retnderinui tl
the feeding of it to bogs, eveni though theyshould j
rule at $4 50 per- ewt. act, the most profitable S,
disposition. which can be mrade ot it, and this
must lead to a haste supply .of pork."
The Louisville Courecr of the 12th says: ti
"The market for hogs for packing is flat in
every respect, with no buyers at any price, and ~
q uotationas will contmrue nomimial for sometime- tI
Without any idea of carrying down prices we
will simtplyr-tate our cotnictiontait they must
conie dow'n to a very low notch compared with
the anticipatiomade early ina the season. Con- I
tracts were then entered into at Gi, 6j, liQ, arid
even Te. from the hooks. There are no buyers
now at halt that price.O Ini adtditiont to the se.ar
city of money, it is evident that the demand atnd
consutmptiun of pork next seasoa will be iless T
than usual, while the produet bids fair to be ei
greater. We hear of the retura to New York ii
of about 10,01)0 packages of box meat, front ei
Liverpool, a portion- of 'which was put up here ai
for what was called the Etnglish mzarket. Thie st
will have to be cotnvertedh itnto bacont for home hI
consumption. Ini addition to this the stopjdtng ItI
of a great utmnber of manufactories ia the Eas- em

THE COTTON CRU.
t this time in former years, Cotton was coin

Che planters krow that the present crop of

luiremnents of -consumption. It is well, eveu
the .present condition of affairs, for us to
%ke prudent estimates of the injury to the
oduction of Cotton in India, in consequence

A very limited supply of Cotton in Liverpoo
id in the Continental ports, or in the hands o
anufacturers, cannot be regarded as alou
,ffiient to sustain the present prices in Liver
iol. - There must be a constant and sufficient
remunerative demand for manufactured good.
-the buyers must feel assured that they havi

With theso few remarks, we again repeat tin

CROWDED OUT. E
The notice of the sale of the property of J. Jovxs,
dee'd, has been received, but too late for publication
this week. Several other matters hay been una
roidably postponed.
FIRE AND LOSS.
To& Carriage-house of Mr. G. McD. WzvER was
burntup on Sunday night last, and with it a carriage,
a buggy, harness and sundry other articles. The fire
is supposed to have been the work of an incendiary. a
WHAT TURNIPS: WHAT TURNIPSI
Mr. GtonoE R. Masy exhibits incomparably the
best turnips we have seen this fall. The largest one
of them weighs 71 lbs. and the rest of the half-dozen,
which lie before us, are very little behind their bigger
brother. They seem to be of the Globo variety, and well
deserve the name. The entire lot cannot weigh less
than 40 lbs. Beat that, farmers of Fairfield, or of
Newberry, or of Marion, or of any where else!
CIOW-CHOW,--AND S. E. BOWVERS.
WLhat a racy condiment is Chow-chow! What a
conglomeration of commingled stomachics! Lady
Falkland has well selected it as the name and title of
her interesting book of travels in India, interesting
as we learn from the Dublin University Magazine,
the book itself we have not seen. Chow-chaw ! The
name is said to -mean "odds and ends." The podlars
in India have, among their baskota, one called the
"chow-chow," in which there is every variety of mner
ohandise. Henee, by the slight of a sort of American
hocus-pocus, the name came to be applied to a multi
farious jar of pickles, just such a jar as Mr. S. E.
Bowaas has kindly sent us this week from his store
in Hamburg, flanked by a bottle of Worcestershire
Sauce, and marslallad by another bottle containing
the very ink with which we now write. Sich is Bow
l sit,-a real Chow-chow of a caterer, and one whose
taste finds a reciprocation in the stomachs of many
customers.
SALE DAY,--THE TIMES.
Monday last brought a goodly number of our people
together, to attend the monthly sales, and to talk over
matters and things in general. The appoarance of
t the public countenanceo, we are glad to say, was as
cheerful as could be expected. The complaint of tight
times was upon the tongue of almost every one; but
the dimpled chin, in the great majority of cases, gave
the lie direct to the tongue's asseverations. There is
an evident disposition among the people to weather
- out the gale under the good and gracious motto of
"Bear and Forbear." There is that kind of feeling
pervading the district, which is alt to exist among a
company of nien caught out together in a snow-storm.
Every one is ready to give the man next to him the
" benefit of his clonk, or umbrelln, or poocket-omnforter;
and they all endeavor to turn the dismal occasion into
one of jullity and mirth, rather than give way to
chills and vapors. So it is with the -people of our
good old district to-day. The "ten-per-cent-ers"
even are out snow-balling with the rest, looking inure
1amiable the while than we remember to have seen
them look. for several years past. The warm corners
Yof their hearts are showing out sonmc of their natural
:old impulses. And we honestly think that we are, all
Stogether, a better people than we have been for
manny long years.
PIt1CES CURRENT.
eTi is hard to loente the prices current for more than
ra day at a time just now, such is the fluctuation of
market matters. Corn is scarcely selling at all, and
consequently there is no well-ascertained price. Very
few buyers na~ willing to give more than 75 cts. per
bushel, andl very few sellers are willing to take less
than a dollaar. In the articeo of flour, pricea are
mnore definite, a fino quality of which readily com

abundantly scarce; which is to say, thmat the scarcity

THlE BlATTY POTATOES.
These are the finest Irish potatoes we know of, for
Swinter use. They arc pilanted in midsummer, andl
conseqjuently conmc to full maturity but little hefore
the cool weather of the Fall sets in. Dug at that time
there is no difficulty in keeping them, provided they
are well put* away in barrels. The hest potatoes of
Sthis kind we have seen are seome grown by Mrs. Dr.
eE. J. SMsxs of this vicinity. A basket of them sit,'
;befure us,-harge, red, sound fellows, such as would
make ain Iriehmnan's mouth water on St Patrick's ]Tay
in the Morning. We advise all who have not this
particular kind of potato, to supply themselves with
it at once. It is thec potato, for aainter' use, iis wur
latitude.*
THAT POINTER DOG,
Col. G. D. 31saa desires us to call attention to his'
advertisement of a "lost dog." We not only do so,
b ut we add, that any man who iyHl knowingly keep
and use a dog that he'knows to be the property of
another is a thief to all intents and purposes. The
dog in question is a noble dog, and the owner says,
"Give mue may dog and name your reward." WVill the
bunters of Edgefeld and the adjoining districts please
keep a lookout for tl.sis dog, and oblige a brother-hua
ter by reporting his whereabouts should he be seen. See
advertisement for description of animal.
APPLES AND APPLE TODDY.
Apples are scarce of course; they are selling at $2
a bushel, very ordiaary at that. lint most apples,
that are not rotten, serve the purpose of making a
decent apple-toddy, provided the other ingredient.
are good. And, apropos of apple toddy, a friend
from a somewhat distant sea-port writes us for the
"Edgelleld Apple-Toddy IRecipe." Ie wants us to
tell, "horo wee make that delicious berersge which ex
hilerater. and senreely inebriates, and fremn which no
head-ache ensues on the nmorrow." That we can do,
andl aeia'l do, not only for our very dear friend, but fori
all who wish to meet old Christmsas at his next return
with a hearty, healthy glass of welcomue. Here then
is the recipe, which we copy froms ans old manuscript
before us: Take ot' aplem (Nor'thern pippins if paos

one quart of Apple Jack, or, if this is not convenient,
good Cognac brandy will suffice; throw in three or

innamon ; cover with a towel and let it steam for 15
minutes; dissolve nearly a tea-cup full of sugar in a
quart of hot water; and then msix all together;. stir I
well, breaking the apples to pieces, and thme drink is I

ELECTION OF SENATOR--ITS IMPOR
TANCE TO THE STATE.
We havo heard with surprize, that there are person
South Carolina who speak of the approaehin,
ioice of a Unied States Senator as a matter in whiel
o State has bit little interest; and who, hence, giri
emselves but little concern about it. Surely, Duel
tpressions of sentiment are more the result of acci
)ntal thoughtlessness than of any thing appnoach
ig to mature conviction. It cannot be, that gentle
on who thus talk are less alive, than others, to th
iputatioi of Sbuth Carolina,-a reputation, by th
ay, which has been in a largo degree gaine. upo

tate render her full share of ability and political in
nrmation to tha; great Council of Sovreignties i
'hich the mightiest issues of the country are discusse
y its mightiest intellects. Whenco then, at this pal
eular time, this tone of indifferqnce as to who sha

n indifference, equally irreconelleable with what ot
tate has done for the country upon the arena I
uestion, and with what, by her pledges to the Soutl
ho stands bound to do in the present and approael
ng Issues between the two great sections of ti
Inion.
From the foundation of our Republic there ha,
risted two contending parties in the country, the oi
aning to an absolute central government, the eth<
o a simple confederacy of independent States. I
iiving direction to the great ideas contiected with th
>olitical waifare, Massachusetts has always led up<
me side, and South Carolina upon the other. Wh4
mportant issues have sprung up, involving these ti
ystemr, it is notgoing toofar to say that Massachusel
ind has developed the one, while South Carolina h
lone the same as to the antagonist system. It w
lo, as far back as the days of Lowndes, and Fish
Ames, and Rufus King. It was so, during the war
1812, when Clhoun, Cheves and Lowndes stood t
gether, with Webster, Oates, and others opposed
them. It was so again, in the famous debate on Foo
Resolutions, in 1829, when Webster and our own gl
rious Hayne stood f6rth the giant exponents of t
ideas of their resiectivo political creeds. It was
also in the yet greater debate of 1832, when the mig
ty Calhoun met Webster and Massachusetts on t
Force Bipl, and when those fundamental principli
upon which the oxistence of the government itself4
pended, were discussed and elucidated by them, un
the names of Massachusetts and South Carolina we

Id All fun aside, however, there is no disputing th

attempts to revive the taste'for music in our commu

been for the most part owing to causes against the re
currence of which the '.'Coryphmans" tell us that:

As the time of opening the Institute Fair draws
near, our Committees are going to work with their
arrangements for the reception of visitors. The Rail
Roads have offered to bring passetigers at half-rates,
and our Hotels are getting ready with their best ac.
commodations for the convenience of our country
friends. In consequence of the unexpectedly in
creased number of applications for space for machine
ry and others of the larger classes of contributions,
the Committees have requested all persons who are
expecting to exhibit articles requiring much room to
give them as early notice as possible, so that a judi
cious distribution may be made to every one. For
running machinery, they have provided additional
accommodation, devoting the lower Saloon of the Hall
exclusively to this purpose. Suitable provision has
also been made for the exhibition of works of Art and
Design. They urge upon contributors especially
who desire to be placed on the roll of competition, to
send their specimens to the Hall by Saturday the 14th
November at least, when receipts will be given for
them. On the day after the opening of the Fair (the
19th) our Fifth Annual Regatta will be the main at
traction. For this beautiful Exhibition ample ar
rangements have been made by the Judges and Di
rectors, which will render it, in itself, a source of
'diversion to our guests which will repay them for their
visit to the City.
An Eronaut, (Mr. Samuel Wilson,) who has made
a number of successful Balloon Ascensions, proposes
to favor our citizens with an exhibition of his powers
during the Fair week. This feat has not been at
tempted here for many years, and should the .Brial
navigator carry out his plans to completion, will be
one of the events of the season.
Among the novelties now exhibited here is a collee
tion of living curiosities, consisting of a big giant and
a fat woman, a baby with two heads and four feet,
two noses, two mouths, and a double share of every
thing else neeful; an Anaconda, Boa Constrictor, and
various similar wonders of nature, inclu.ding fast
women, snakes, etc.
An elegant monument is about being erected at
Magnolia Cemetry to the memory of the lamented W.
