C., Juno 28, 1877. Jjnst Saturday was a gloomy morning and evening. Wheat in tho fields in a grcon, wet state, and then an East rain upon it; but fortuno smiled upon us and sunshine and wind followed; dried tho wheat and oats. Tho land got in plowing ordor by Monday evening. Tho farmers havo been busily engaged this week in uprooting and routing General Greon's forces. At somo points ho is woll fortified. Nothing short of Jaok Frost will eutiroly destroy his army. Tho woathcr is extremely hot this week. Tho wheat threshers aro at work separating tho wheat from tho chaff. Corn crops in Conter township aro very promising. Thc bud worm in some bottoms havo been vory bod. Cotton is lino in many farms. S. ll. Maret has ono field of vory good cotton, and Major Prico says ho has 20 aoros ot cotton knee high. J. W. Shclor has somo very findtyo on an old worn out pieoo of land. Ile also lins two or thrco litters of vory fino pigs-J Essex Choestoo and Tugnloo Rivor lands aro almost groaning undor tho burdon of wheat, outs, corn and cotton, they aro producing. Cano Creek lands, together with Big aud Littlo Beavcrdam farmers aro very promising. Nubbin Ridge corn and cotton is, equal to tho host. J. P. Simmons has somo very fino Chatham cotton. J. W. Dearden is taking great pains to hnvo a good orchard. Ho has ripe, peaches. linell dor John has fine corn. Two shocks of his wheat made a bushel. Tho fence question is up nil over this town* ship pro ct con. R. M. Hays nnd G. K. Maxwell's thresher is in full running order. No ono sick in this neighborhood now.

A portion of white tenants nod all the negroes arc arrayed against tho pro posed chango. Tho villagers aro luxuriating in ripe peaches, and occasionally a whiskey wngon comos along to rovivo tho drooping energies of thc devotees of Bacchus. Tho Presbyterians will worship in tho academy hero tho third Sunday of every month, tho Rev. John B. Adgcr, of Pendleton, supporting them. Tho congregation which hitherto worshipped nt Nazareth, near by, will soon move their church edifico to this village. j Wo havo had a mod dog, ono strayed from a whiskey wagon. Ono or two bellicose eura attacked it and woro bitten, but as yet thc mania has not developed upon them. It rcnlly seems ns il tho mountain fellows, despairing of killing ont those of na who aro accustomed to about "forty draps" with moan whiskey, havo resorted to tho moro effectual means, if possiblo, of dropping mad dugs among us. Tho crop outlook is rather cheering. Up land corr, is especially fino, but lato washing rains did muoh dnmago to tho orop ulong branches and creeks, and thc damngo in somo places hoing almost equal to that produced by tllO freshet last summer. It is believed tho oat crop was a failure general ly. Wheft^ on thc contrary is universally good. Thcaron in corn is considerably larger than that ol Inst year. Cotton and corn aro well cleaned of grass for tho most part and aro growing rapidly.
