Your humble servant, in bii small torining operations, gathered the other lay seven wagon-heads of corn from lest than fi acres of land ; and the same wagon-body once teld twenty two bu:hels in the shuck with hard p.t-king. We put it down now at twenty bushels. Dont you think that pretty god,-one hundred id forty bushels to five eres ? 'e did, certain l.-:iind teit a lit t!e like it tmi;;h britig down the -rice of corn these hard timies. li vcc;ire to us, t' we uau :e this kind of corn, what must the regu ar fartuet s be doing? As of the er.ps, s. of the health of the country, -very fair, taking all things into cusideration. :itme grievous exce;tions there are. You see a wtiee of Dr. 11. Brnr-s death elsewhere. We elsi attended, on Fridhay ins:, the funeral of an timnable lady, the wife of the Rev. L. It. l wat.r e;:r. pastir of the Edgetield Village Baptist Lhurch. She had long been as fragile as a leaf; ret such was her gentleness, her Christian sweet ,ca; of deportiueut, that all who knew her hoped :vet agiinst hope for a lengthening of her earthly :xistence. IBut the sutns came and she fell isteep in Je.-us. It was a tgid, almost genial ')aitber slay when they laid hIr in the tomb. A aered si:lnesi held the surrounding cortege as ie minieter proninced the last words over her ;rave. The breath of the West enue gently up it the moment, cooling the brows of the living and aispering of rest to the departed. It was indeed in occaiofn of hope as well as sorrow. Two hours yfterward, its we rode hou:eward, the sue was set iug gloriouly ; it had just sunk below a rugged loud whose golden lining, as it. still hung in the ky, made its very darkness beautiful. We could jut think how hpipHy the softened splendor of lie scene aecorded with the funeral eve of a pure urislian woman. The otliciating minister (Mr. ti uini tT of the low-country) said, with touching itmplicity, at the close of his address in the Church: 'She was fond of music in life, I an told, and what. can be more appropriate new than to sing a symn before we bear her bence !" But she was al ready uniting with the angels of God in harmo ries beyond mortal conception. We civillians, distant from war's tragedy, can ot view death even in its least repulsive form without a i"hudder. It is said that solieis learn u look upon it with little emotion. Of course it s right that they should steel their hearts against my weakness connected therewith ; but is it well, avcu upon the battle-field, to neglect it as an en rorcement of the text-" lie ye ol-u rcoly !" Sure ly not. P'liticnlly, there is not a particle of news worth relating. You see that wo have several candidates for Congress; we are not apprized of the pros pects of any one of them, but suppose Nout.'s shance as good as the best * and a shade brighter. He is, by the way, a very clever gentleman, and would do his part handsomely as the representa tire of the Old Ninety Six District. So no doubt would some of his competitors. Saw Lieut. M. B. Wavee, of Company 11., 7th Regiment, on Sunday last, but not so as to speak with them. lis hand seems to be improving, and his general appearance is first rate,-as usual; suppose he wiil leave for the army before lung, al though perhaps that would be' unnec~essasry until hi wound is itt well its to eniable him to tnke a, part in action. There is a great deal of sickness from measles in the camp near Aiken, but only one death thtt wa hear of,--a Private in one of the Ahbheville or Laureis Coinpatnies.

Poun's Arraignment The singularly personal production of Mr. E. Ps, in which ho very incorrectly places us in the position of arraigniug him before the public, is beat answered by a portion of the paragraph which gave offence. Speaking of the course of one (only one) of our merchants, we said: "To those original profits (no more) he has ad here-. in every particular, whatever may have been the advance upon them elsewhere. Others are said to have acted upon tIm principle of rising with the demand, unnd of tle"e ice venture no spin ion. They may be wrong, they ,ug not be; we do not kuor. But this we dio know, clearly and unquestionably : that Mr. En3I1AN's course hits been that of a true Christiut patriot, and that he de er-.'cs the thanks and the good wishes of this conmtunity and District for the downright hon esty with which lie has adhered to what lie con ceirvd to be the line of rectitude in this matter. " We are happy to learn that Mr. Jons Cl.oLCA has pursued the same line in regard to a lot of cloth ind clothing he has had on hand. The like coinwenidable cosrne nwy herre been token by othecre of tomiu twe are not infirmed." If the read"r will please consider our language and givo proper weight to the italicized passages, he will conclude at once that Mr. P's manner of receiving it is most extraordinary; And we de sire to make no reply, except to say that we have made no untrue record of Mr. PENN, as he very harshly intimates; because, we have made no record of him at all, i~n this instance. If he will recover' his usual good temper and consider, he will remember that we huce, again and again, put hin upon the record in the most lvorable light our judgment could suggest, both as a merchant and as a patriot. For the rost, we are glad to hear that Mr. PENN, besides his large purchases in Eity, has continued to receive goods from time to-timo. We are glad to bear that he also has adhered, like Mr. BnYa, to as "moderate profits" thereupon as he ever made on goods; we dont question it for a moment; his statement is as good with us as an oath. We really think he ought to feel obliged to us for affording him, however unintentionally, the op purt.ti:y of vindicating himself against those " many persons in the world who know more about other people's business thiin their own." Right here howiever we must say that no such chntrac ters ever told us tiny thing at alT about Mr. P., or his store. But really the ease is occupying too much of the '3icurt's time.

Unwise Censors. The Richmond E.omincr tnd Charleston 1e,, ot'ry find a part of their occupation in vehement. ly censuring the seemingly f.ds: stcp.t of our tovermnent. In all which, wo subu'ib, they do far more harm than good. It' the Government were really in error, their elanto would perhaps be itseless; but when the Government is really ri/ht, it is worso than useless : it is actually in juriouts. Let us take a late innstnce The ti'jvernucnt at Richmond waw said ko be in clined to withhold the army of the Potomac from any onward movement. Thero'eure schipers that the cabinet was divided and that nothing could be done. Immediately, without proper infona. tion ts to the facts, the EXrumier raised the cry of ineillciency; and the JMerceury, if we are not mistaken, rerponded in the same strain. At all events they both vociferously proclaim (what every body at the South knows and what the Govern ineut doubtless did not wish to become apparent to the enemy) that our people widl universally ap plund and sustain an inmmedinto onward move tient. Now the facts appear to be, that our Govern ment, without reference to the Jriitr er, tho lIercry'', or any other party ciotmplaiuunt, was do ing all it Could sub aliientio to hasten the advance of our troops; that there had been no division on the point in the cabinet; and that the President hiniself was preparing to inspoet the arrangements in person, and, for aught we know, to initiate the movement in person. In the mean time, the E amietcr and the .cretry have made their demon stration; and the strategy of the onward move ment suffers detriment by just so much as said demonstration may have served to put the enemy on his guard. Surely their readers would be quito as well sat. isfied with them, if they were just a little more reticent of their opinions and strictures. "(:reat Britain and France."

EnTron :-I rend with much surprise the editorial in the last isnue of your paper in relation to tti. i'liry pursuead by the Merchants of the Villagei for .rveryl tonths past. I make no ex. eeptions to the very high complliment paid to tw< of rh.-mt ..r their 'far;,;ata j'a.tritia. I have no doubt they are bilh well deserving the comltli. ment. lPut yon satt.. that yon have been in forned that tie otberr have acted difierently from them in t:hin;g advantage of the times and the necs.itae of themir customers, and advanced their price-. I ce:idgie then. Sir, that in the article referred to, I .tand befure this conanuiity as a Merchant, in the mie.t of thrc.e trying tines, charged with a want of Christana /'atriuhan. And being thus chiargedl ad arrang e d, I plead rot guilty, and asI the 1.rivilege of n plhwe in your wide cirenlating paper to make a statement of a few facts in my defence. I do not claitn to p.ssesd wore patriotisian tha my ricghbonrs, and cannot judge how far a man'. pairiotima cn lie e:timated by the prices of hi: icrchttndir.e. lut,. I ,elievo I can claim for my self, withont bnsting, as much devotion to the honour, interest and safety of South Carolina. and the Southern Caufedera.ey as any ether living man. When Sonth Carolina was called on in 1S3i for sobliers, to fight in the Florida war, I was the second man who volunteered in the Dis trict, and took any.stand by the side of our gal lant Capt. Joes. I never lost an hour from duty during that campaign. I did not make any money out of that war, but spent over six bun ired dollars in cash to buy clothing and other comforts for eur soldiers, and had to burrow Twenty dollars from Capt. Joss to defray the expenses of myself and servant home from Char leston. Since that time I have met with many reverses and losses, and have but little left but a chracter, which I have hoped to be able to leave as a legacy to my children, if nothing more. At the beginning of the present war, and du ring the bombardment of Fort Sumter, I was in Charleston purchasing a stock of goods for the spring and summer trade. And- although there was a dark cloud hanging over our country, I had full confidence in the strength of our institu tions and the final success and triumph of our cause, and purchased a large stock of useful sta plo goods adapted to the wants of our people. These goods vere purchased at very low prices. They were marked at ats low prices and moderate profits as I have ever sold goods. They have been sohl out to the people mostly on a credit, at those prices. And most of the goods I now have nt hand were purchased then and previously, and they continue to be sold at the same unaltered prices. The only exceptions are, where I have in some few cases made late purchasers at the ad vanced prices and had a very small lot of the old stock. But I must acknowledge, Mr. Editor, that I have not sold all my goods during the season at the same uniform prices. No merchant could do this who wishes to replenish his stock for the ac commodation of his customers. Such times as these, when prices were advancing every day, I have tried to keep up my stock, and having but little dash, have been obliged to purchase in small lots, and as every man of common eenee must know could not sell such goods at old pries. As an illustration, I will state that I purchaset in the spring a large lot of Coates' Spool Thread at about 60 ets. per dozen, which I sold out mostly on a credit at 5 ets. a spool, or 60 ets. a dozen, making the enormous profit of one cent a spool. I pur chased a largo stock of Shoes, most of which have bean sold at low .rices. I sold out my stook of Powder at .10 and 50 cents when it was sciling aat $1 a poaunrl in Angusta. I sold out my stock o1 Shot at 10 anid 12 cents, and when I ordered a new hot, had to pay $b50t a bag, nearly 20 cents il pound.
