WALHALLA, S. C.: Friday Heming, August 27, I860 Attention is called to various Now Advortitoments which appear ia this paper. In Now York, on the 28d inst., Cot ton was worth 85 cents por pound. Cold, 82 Corn is now selling in Walhalla, by retail at $1.75 per bushel, aud hard to get at that prico. Tho county seems to bo move noarly oxhaustcd of provisions than ever be fore. This fact has fixed tho price of flour at $6 per hundred, notwithstanding wo had a good wheat crop. Hard timos, another yciuf $s opparcnt to every ono. Crops. Tho Com orop in this County has becu neriously injured by the long drought. In nome sections there has not been a season in -eleven weeks, and thc upland corn is almost nn ontiro failure. Wo believe tho yield will be less tho present year thau for any y oar -since 1845. Taxes. Walhalla has presented a livoly appearance for tho past month, caused by C v. inpouring .of the citizens to pay their taxes. Our peo ple have strained every nervo to savo their property th:3 year, in hopes of a bettor timo in tho future. Tho largo crop of the past year and the high price of corn and cotton has . enabled them iu a great measure to pay up, ~but another year with suoh taxes would sell out half the county, as wo arcsatisGcd the present crop will barely support the county. Tho . entire tax of tho county amounted to some thing over thirty-three thousand dollars. Of | . this amount three thousand and thirty-four dollars have been taken off by individual ap plications to thc State Auditor. Up to thc .morning of tho 24lh instant, twenty-one thou -sand six hundred and eighty-seven dollars had been paid in, leaving a balance of eight thousand five hundred dollars, yet to bc col lected. Wo understand from tho County Treasurer, that a farther extension of tho time, without the penalty has been granted, and that his books will bo kept open until Saturday tho 4th of September. Wo hopo by that timo all our citizcus will bo ablo to make such arrangements, as will save their ^property from execution.

LAWTON'S inquiry in regard to thc " extraordinary oorimony shown SQ reck lessly and persistently to those who claim a right, inherent and inextinguishable, to think and dcoido for themselves concerning tho wisdom, honesty aud patriotism of all parties which may ondoavor to oooupy the chair of State." I will answer by asking if ho docs not bruiso, or attempt to bruiso, tho head of tho poison ous Adder whioh has, and is endeavoring to striko its deadly fangs into his body, aad thoroby dostroy his vory oxtstonoo ? Is, thorc any rooklossooss in so doing f From tho ton or of Mr. Lawton's communication it appoarc that there exists a spirit of strife in our mids! -or at ioast suoh ' would bo tho inforeoot drawn by strangers, ead thoso who oro ovot ' roady to raise t)i?M>ry ,of rebellion, robol op pression, &o. $To suoh, I would stato that, n present, and vfpr months past, the prinolrjfi topio has bwC^kgriouU.nro. Also, that Oco ncc and adjoTmug Counties havo never, sinai their organisation; oxporionoed a moro cain timo in regard to politios. In regard to tin "extraordinary^ oorimony" manifested, w< would soy that the writer must be possessci of a considerable amount of sorghum (boing South Carolinian), olso ho would not bo sur prised at seeing honest mon indignant at th insults whioh aro daily heaped upon hts owi birth place. No, not astonished ovon if i > woro possible by honest moans, to root out o thc scats once oooupiod by Calhoun, Hamj ton and ?thors, tho ignorant Afrioan and bas , oarpot-bagger. "Extraordinary ocrtHaonj i shown rcoklcssly J" Picoso inform us toward i whom is this reckless acrimony shown. B ' you think that the groator portion of whit mon of South Carolina? Yes. I And tho ten Southorn States aro doing wrong in n< taking the negro to thoir .bosoms, wcicomin tho oarpot-baggor in/their midst, thorob bringing thoir oortain degradation and d< atrt?otion? God forbid that any more white men so tt {osa sight of tho" mother thtty nursed thom an Rbi . . t?f-t ;i /'^U'-.i*' tho sisters that enjoyed oed shared their youthful sports/ as to titus degrade them selves. But towards whom is this acrimony shown? Is it towards tho ignorant blaoks ? I think I oan unswor without foar of refutation. Not so? Well, if not tho blaoks, who then ? Who is it that profosses to bo tho ncgroo's friend ( inducod him, first by tho tolo of "forty acres and a mulo," and thon threatened him with slavery if he did not adhere to tho Uuiou Lcaguo ? Who is it that assooiatcs with theso ignorant oroaturcs, equalizes themselves, and inculcates a spirit of distrust and enmity io them against their former owners ? Who is it that is endeavoring and inciting them to do deeds of robbery, oruolty and murder ? Such aro the men or friends against and towards whom this persistent acrimony is shown ; and such aro tho tuon who will bo detested and despised by all honest men, both white and blaok. Suoh aro tho men whom our children forever aftor will be taught to avoid ns thoy would thc slimy snoko or tho loathsomo alli' gator, and to shrink from coming in contact with, as tho putrid nud offensive ouroass. And yet Mr. Lawton wishes to know what is the causo of this "rookies* aorimooy." Qo, i sir, to tho tribunals, and what do you fiud thors? A mongrel jury. Qo to tho ballot box, sud what do you see ? A pured of de luded wretches clamoring for admittance, so that thoy may oast their vote ; and when it is douo they oan only toll you they did us they had boon directed by some scalawag or car petbagger, who cares no moro for thom farther than to uso thom as tools whereby bo may defraud the people and koop him in pow er-than tho gravel whioh ho orushes under his heel. Are you still unconvinced ? Look ovor tho annals of crime from tho 1st of May, 1865, up to the prcsout time, and computo the numbers of innoocut mon who havo been brutally murdered by negroes, but some white man tho instigator; thc thousands of females who havo f?llen victims to their unholy and hellish lusts, persuaded that commit what orimo thoy might, thoy ncod fenr uo earthly punishment; und as for a future judgment, they kuow nor oaro nothing. I sinooroly hopo Mr. Lawton will fiud at least some slight grounds for democratic acri mony and democratic prejudices iu these our democratic dogmatism . A DEMOCRAT. . Aug. 20, 1869. VIRGINIA.-Thc total number of registered ?ors in Virginia, as shown by tabular state ments of ench county, issued by General Canby, is 269,884, of this number 149,781 aro whites and 120,103 arc colored. The constitution was adopted by a majority of 200,000 votes, tho objectionable sections rel ativo to suffrage being strickon out. It is tho victory of a party without a naroo, and can bo claimed by neither Radicals nor Do<u ocrats. It is a triumph of popular opinion over political partisanship and affords an evi dence of a return to pesoe and order, "jj^^^ KENTUCKY. -Tho new Senate, so far as rcportod, consista of two Republicans, two Indopendants, and thirty Democrats. In tho House thcro is ono Republican and fifty-three Domoorats. TUE TENNESS : ACTION.-Thc "Nash ville Union" .. Thc returns, which aro noarly all iu official and reported, indicato a maiority for Governor Sen ter of about 65,000 ossibly it may full a few votes below that number. Stokes carried only thirteen of tho thirty counties in East Tennes see and so far. only Wayne in Middlo and Haywood in West Tennessee. THE COMMERCIAL VALUE OV THE SOUTIT. 'ho "Now Yotk Horald" says editorially : . ell might tho North buckle on nil its armor to koop tho South in thc Union, for, apart from politioal considerations and thc patriotio sentiment of maintaining tho gran ?eur and glory of tho rcpublio intact, th? part of our common country is tho sourci of our commorcinl wealth and moro val nublo to tho North than ever India was t< England. According to tho latest statis^' tho value of Southorn exports last yoar wa* over two hunbrcd and fourteen millions, whih that of tho North wa? ? little less thai two hundred millions. There is tint great difforcnoo, too, in tho nature of Uv exports of tho two sections, thut a lorgi portion of those of tho North is in tho preciou metals, whioh in a raoasuro impoverishes th? country, whilo thoso of tho South are tin produots of tito soil and bring us gold or it equivalent. Cotton, of courso, is tho groa staplo, though tobacco is a valuable produot and sugar, rioe and othor things form a par of tho oxports. Tho domostio trade of th South is still moro valuable to tho North, fo it supplies our manufacturer* with tho rai material tnoy nood and takes baok Northen manufuoturos in roturo. Tlroso great ant valuable exports and this vast trade, too, hav boon dovolopcd again so soon after tho Soutl had been desolated by war. This not onl shows the surprising wealth of tho soil, bu tho astonishing energy of oharactor and roon porativo power of tho peoplo.

DROWNED ON SULIVAN'S ISLAND.-Yes terday afternoon a number of boys were bath ing in thc surf on Sulivan's Island opposite Fort Moultrie. While running about tho beach a young son of Mr. Jungbluth, of this city, was carried by tho tido beyond his depth and perished boforo assistance could reach him. It is supposed that his body was car ried out by tho tide.- Charleston Courier. - THE Lnnocstor "Ledger" states that it took the sum of $1,440 to pay off thc asses sors of Lanoestor County. It is estimated that tho work occupied the assessors 482 days j at a cost of threo dollars a day. Under the old Stato Government it cost about $600 to assess and collect the taxes of tho County.
