Court,
At Picken?, opened on tho 1?71li ultimo*
A largo nnmbor of Warrant? had boon ro?
turned and tho ciiminnl court was expected
to consumo sovora) days, but tho casos wore
of small moment and woro oithor souled or
soon disposed of. Only ono criminal caso
wns argued to tho jury and tho Court of
Sessions olosed its work on Tuesday after?
noon.
Tho grund jury in their presentment re
commended that Trial Justices should, as far
as possible, try all small offences and save
thc county from burdening tho Sessions with
thom. This should bc dono in ull counties.
The civil jury business was light and closed
on Friday at noon. Some equity cases OOH?
bumed tho evening and court adjourned sitio
die on Ft id ay night about 112 o'clock, altor a
session of five days.
On our way wo observed tho crops of cot
ton mid corn wore very good nhd the pooplo
generally appeared hopeful of returning
prosperity. A great deal of ibo cotton crop
vas white in tho held and from tho small
attendance on court wc suppose tho farmers
were turning thc favorable weather to profit
at homo.
Wc heard very little about tho fence law
and generally thoso who spoke of it were
favorable to tho now law. Wc believe it will
boco ino popular and ultimately bo adopted
generally. AV hilo laying this, wo do not
favor any chango of thc present law by forc
ing on the people a stock law. Wc have
always believed thc question was ono for thc
pooplo to decide aid I hey should bc permit
ted to adopt or reject it by a popular vote.
On Wednesday evening of court Judge
Mackey spoke in tho Court House on the
political issues of tho present campaign. His
remarks were well conceived and eloquently
expressed, and now and then ho would tell a
side splitting anecdote. Tho Judge is ccr
?. tuinly a forcible campaign speaker and will
accomplish much good, lio gavo n glowing
account .I tho groat Democratic mass meet
ing in Now York on tho 24th ultimo, and
expressed perfect confidence in tho success of
i Hancock.
A Trix) Through Portions of Oco
lico Piokens and Anderson
Counties.
Dear Courier;-As you seem to appreciate
tho correspondence of friends, I propose to
give you a short account of n few days travel
by private conveyance through portions of
Oconco, Pickens and Anderson Counties.
I loft Walhalla in company with Prof. S. on
Tuesday morning, undecided ns to what point
of thc compass wo would Btoer our course.
Our orignal purpose was to visit the sections
of thc country lying on the Fr?lich Broad
and Davidson Hi vori. Tho first objective
point wo designed reaching wat Sancoa City,
intending lo go from this placo via Old and
New Piokens to Ca) sar'a Head, nod thenco to
tho valley along tho 'tvbovo namod rivers.
A driving rain from tho North Mast hogan to
fall, which rendered further travel that day
anything but comfortable, both to mun and
boast. So wo concluded to spend tho balance
of thc day and night in this now nod growing
railroad town. While hero (though not out
of door* much, in conscqnonco of inclement
weather) wc noted several unmistakeable
eigns of improvement. Ono to our mind very
peasingbecause significant marked intelligence
and refinement on tho part of the good pooplo
of Seneca, was u work that was (hon going
on in cleaning up and beautifying tho grounds
which have boen laid off ?nd enclosed for a
cemetery. Thc pooplo of Seneca do not ex
?peet to live always. Although n very healthy
locality, it is not up to a neighboring town a
little nearer tho mountains, which sonic years
ugo ot ni m ed such a dogreo of healthfulness
i_ that ono of it* citizens had to be put to death
before (hoy could start n cemetery, lt is a
good thing to soc tho pooplo recognizing and
acknowledging their mortality by making
provision for tho Interment of tho dead.
Thoro is porhaps no better index of tho intel?
ligonco and tasto of n pooplo than tho bury
ing places. Lot us soo tho grounds whoro
tho mortal remains of a community are all de
posited, and wo will loll with almost moral
certainty tho kind of pooplo who survive.
Suffice it to say that tho attention given to
tho improvement of tho Seneca ccmctory is a
W sign ominous of good.
W Anothor thing noted, Whioh speaks well for
? tho place, alongside of a beautiful house of
worship stands a neat two story building,
dedicated to learning. This . is tho plnco
whoro tho oxorciscs of tho Seneca High
1 School nro conducted. Prof. Commodoro W.
Moore is tho Principal of tho Institution. Ho,
by pationt, pcrsovcring work is laying dcop
fa and broad tho foundation of an edtioational
ontorpriso which is dostinod to grow with tho
growth, nnd strengthen with tho strongth of
this young nnd growing city.
Another hopeful sign noted is tho number
of now buildings, nomo just eomploted and
ethel's in tho process of erection. Of tho
for m or, oro tho IRno Ridge Depot, dwelling
houses mid store rooms. Among tho latter,
wo would montion a largo warehouse lu tho
Kastern suburbs of tho town and u coturno*
dious Imuso quito near tho Air Lino Depot
dosigncd io embroco under tho -ame roof un
ampio hotel und store rooms for merchandise
of convenient proportions, Thoro aro many
other things in Seneca whioh indicate pro
gross. Tho intelligent obsorvor cannot visit
tho placo without being struck with tho air
of improvomont whioh moots him on ovory
hand. Wo must huston on.
Tho noxt morning (Wednesday) still cloudy
with occasional showers. After a conference
(VB to how to direot our futuro movements wo
rooched tho ooticlusiun that it would be ati
W?90, Ullder tho circumstances, to endeavor
to execute our original purpose of travoliug
across tho mountains, and us we hud learned
from parties who had just roturnod, that what
is oallcd tho "rainy season" hud commencod
in tho mountains, and there was no tolling
how long it would continue, nnd that there
was no plcnsuro traveling among tho hills in
wet WCUthor. So wc turned '.ho head of our
trusty steed towards tho East, and leaving
Seneca at 10 A. M. followed tho publie road
running along sida of tho Air Lino Railway
until it point near thc Seneca River, where
our road diverged to thc right in tho direc
tion of Pendleton. Before roaching tho la?t
mentioned pince wo took a left hand road,
loading in tho dircotiou of Central, ii thriv
ing little town about half way betu oon Char
lotte mid Atlanta on Air Lino Railroad, ii
place nided for good dinners, gotten up by
that far famed host, Cousin John Thrasher,
At 12 o'clock M., wo halted at tho gato of
Mr. Aaron Hoggs, ono of tho most enter
prising and successful farmers, not merely of
the county in which bc resides, but of all tho
up country. We accepted the proffered hos?
pi till ?ty of Mr. Buggs, at whoso residence wc
wore most generously entertained. This was
not the lirsi limo we had enjoyed tho hospi-.
tnlity of Mr. IL and family. In a; former
coriospondonco to thc Corinna wc intended
to make n note of our visit to this placo,
during the sessions of thc M. R. District Cou?
fermi co nt Zion Church, but said correspon
dence was interrupted by circumstances
which tho writer eould not control. Wc
ever expect lo cherish with grateful remem
brance the pleasure of that evening in Au
gust, which, in odddition to tho swoot fellow
ship with largo hearted Christian brethren,
was increased by tho most enjoyable music
ever listened to by tho writer, tho contribution
of tho FOUR and daughtors of Mr. H. ant'
other visiting friends. On tho occasion o
our last i ?sit wo met with Mr. Andrew Low h
from Oconco County. Ile gove ns Bomo very
interesting incidents connected with the his
tory of Carolina's illustrious state-man
John C. Calhoun, of whom Mr. Lewis was i
lifo long friend and neighbor. Mr. RoggH
has boen eminently successful a? ll farmer
His success is not owing to accident ir ti
what sumo call luck. Noone can oonvcrsi
with him without discovering'tho elements o
in his ease. They aro all embodied in him
pelf. They arc first a thorough knowledge <
his business in all of its bearing-), Second
preparation for tho work in hand, bavin
ready fur uso nil the appliances nod. mean
of executing his plans of labor. Third,
determined perseverance which will admit i
no flinching or giving way in the face <
difficulties. Fourth, practical economy ap
plied to all tho routino of farm lifo lo tl
means of production, consumption, nil net
Ossory expenditures, ami the right investmei
of tho surplus yield of the plantation. ll
did not make a formal statement of thoi
things, but we made the analysis by way
inference Irom an hour or two'?: talk abu
fanning. We regard the intelligent SI
successful farmer as one nf the prime fm
tors of society. Such i* Mr. Aaron Bogg
Would that moro of our young men wen
give thcmsolvos to crop culture nnd farm in
provomont.
Tho next objoetivo point in our tour w
the Piedmont Factory. On our way lo tl
place we woro entertained by Mr. Frat
R. Glenn and son, lurga hearted Christi
gentlemen, roniding near Equality, in Ando
son County, S. C. Wo orossed over t
Sflluda after dark on a covered bridge. ?
roaching tho othor bank wo found oursolt
both in Greenville County and at tho Pie
mont Factory. The next morning (Frida
wo were surprised to find oursolvos in
beautiful town of no mean dimensions. T
inhabitants aro principally tho operatives
thc factory. The population of tho plooc
six hundred souls, three hundred of \vh
aro daily employed in carrying on tho wo
of tho Factory, The work hero is mi
more extensive than we I bought before <
visit. Tho capital invested, near four bundi
thousand dollars, and we were glad to let
that tho most of this i.-: ownod by South C
lillians. Another largo building is in pi
cess of erection, and when completed,
presont capacity of the factory will bc di
bled. It will thon consume forty bnlci
cotton daily. Thoro arc now in operation t
hundred nnd forty looms, each turning t
daily fifty yards of cloth. We wish all
pooplo of our State Could visit tho Pied m
Factory. Wo think it would tend to inrj
thom with new life and energy. Wo w
much indebted lo tho very intelligent ?
efficient Superintendent, Mr, A. R. Steele,
courtesies shown us. After spending a
hours in this placo of work and delight
scenery, wc directed our course towards J
dersnn, via Willinmston. Tho Inst nat
has an antiquated appearance. Tho great
thing of the placo is tho flourishing Fen
College, under the Presidency of Dr. Lam
Lato Saturday evening wo reached
town of Anderson, where we spent thc S
bath attending worship in the Presbyter
Church. Thoro aro many signs of lifo
growth in this beautiful rural town. Fi
this placo wo turned tho hoad of our si
homeward, via Townvillo, completing
circuit nt Walhalla in ono week.

Tho Cotton Crop.
Thc New Orleans prophets lake u brighter
view of tho crop this week than they did
thu week before. Thc Picayune's commer
cial editor puta crop ot 5,(500,000 to 5,700,
000 bulos provided tho wont lier is favorable
during thc balance of tho picking season,
lt arrives ut this conclusion by putting thc
Texas orop at 100,000 b iles moro thou last
your, bucnuso thc drouth cut thc crop of last
your short and because the aoroago \u that
State hay boon increased; the Gcrogia crop at
50,000 moro; the Carolinas at 89,000 moro;
Florida, 10,000 moro; against a dcorease of
1 10.000 in Mississippi, 10,000 io Louisiana,
.10,000 in Alabama, 80,000 in Arkansas,
and 25,000 halos in Tennessee. Thc da mogo
to tho crop by both worms und wet weather
baa chiefly been in tho Mississippi valley.
Making allowance for the inorooKcd acragc,
tho Picayune ia confident tho damage iu
Mississippi and Louisiana will be fifteen
percent., in Tennessee and Alabama seven
and a half per cent., mid in Arkansas about,
six per cent. The reports from Clio Atlantic
States ure satisfactory, with a few ex
ceptions.
This estim?lo will not, of course, hold good
if bad weathor again sots in. The picking
scoson, which is usually allowed to count
100 to 120 days, has been shortened already
at least 20 days by rains. Wc mny there -
(oro estimate u loss of what might hove
boen picked of cotton actually yrown of
15,000 to 20,000 bales per day. A vast
deal of this will provo nn absoluto waste.
Kvery day lost now brings us nearer the
danger line of frost, which, if it como earlier
than last year, must naturally hurt tho
crop.
Groonvillo righting our Battlos
Wo take thc following from thc Grccnvilto
Paily News, of 'Saturday.
MAYOR'S Couivr.-Thcro was an cxtru
nttondauoo of citizens at tho Mayor's Court
yesterday. Prank B, MoBeo,an enthusiastic
young Deoiocrat, liad been charged by
David Ii. Speer with "disordcly oonduct,
calculated to disturb thc puhlto peace," by
alluding to unid Speer ns thc tiuthor of a
certain letter doted from Walhalla, and
published in thc Dca Moines Register and
copied into tho Greenville Daily News,
and also stating tho additional fact that the
letter was a ,;erics of lies with any preface
with which tho term maybe embellished.
Hie Honor called Court promptly al nine
o'clock. Mr. J. T. Nix appeared for tho
defense and Mr. Spcor for thc prosecution.
Tho evidence established tho foot that in
a conversation with Sherill' G Urea th, Mr.
Mollee said that Speer had told him he wo6
the author of tho letter,and that he, Mcl.cc,
pronounced thc lotter a tissue of, well
any quantity of falsehoods, big and littlo
which tho reader may desire. When Speer
was sworn 113 u witness in his own behalf
ho did not acknowledge, neither did he
disclaim tho authorship of tho letter. Hoing
a witness in thc case, it, gavo Consol lor Nix
tho right "to open out on him," which
ho did ?11 ft right lively manner. Toke
all tho lexicons of tho former ages and
present days, and compilo thom, thcro.
could bc found no word of vituperation or
denunciation whio'i Mr, Nix did uot. em
ploy. Shakespeare, Popo, Shelly, Pcroy,
Byron, Young, ond oven Martin Unrquliar
Tupper wero brought up in proud array
and stood with finger pointed at tho shrink
ing form of tlio Adjutant and Inspector
Qonorol, At times bo "smote a ghastly
smile," but. counsellor Nix would not "let
tho galled julo wiiico," but continued to
pour upon him till tho vials of wrath
and dpiiunofatfon of which he wns capable.
Finally his Honor discharged Mr. MoHco,
tlioro being no case against him, and tho
Inigo crowd quietly proceeded down stnirs,
tho Adjutant mid Inpcolor General bringing
up tho rear, whistling "My country, 'tis of
thee, sweet land of liberty."
This is not only an exoiting, but a very
interesting political campaign, soys tho
Danbury News. Women tis well ns men
havo a duty to perform to their oounlry,
and they should not shrink from it, They
cannot voto or appear in processions, but'
they cnn out tho wood and bring waler, and
thus lenvo tho men moro tiuio to talk up
mattera.
Tho State Canvass
Tho Sluto canvass ia li a If over. In
6omo of the Counties tho attonduuoo upon
tho mass meeting has bcou small, but UB n
general thing the campaign has boon a
suoocss. At Uhostor, Gou. Conner, of Char?
lesion, spoke. Ho suid that tho question
which moots us in this oumpuign is not,
how shall tho State bu redeemed? That
question was scttlod iu tho supremo ooutcst
of 1870. Tho qucstiou now is how to best
administer this government? Wo oro to
show that wo have tho right to rule because
wo do so wisely and well. As hos been
said, wc aro yet on trial. Contrasting tho
situation of tho State now with that of
1870 wo lied that thou turmoil, strife
and confusion prevailed. Now there is
economy ond reform. intelligence ond
honesty have taken tho plaoo of ignorance
and corruption. New impulses oro felt;
new life-blood Hows in all tho ohanncls of
business; men work in confidence. All
this is the rich roward of thc labors, soori
fioos ?nd heroism of our pcoplo in 187C.
To preserve what wo wou then is our duty
in this cimp*ign. To do this demands
tho highest wisdom and tho loftiest states
manship. Tho problem which we have to
work out is far moro difficult than that
which fell to tho lot of our forefathers.
Thoy built o government for u homogene
ous pcoplo. Wo hove to preserve that gov
ernment, with a discordant and divided
element. How this problem is to be met
noue can forcseo or foretell. We aro on a
pathless sea without o guide; wc must work
this great problem for ourselves. Though
wo oro without experience, we can fall back
on thc great principies of justice, which will
surely triumph in tho cud. We must
make it known that the Democratic govern
ment in South Carolina is not hostile to any
color; wo must accord to our colored citizens
thc fullest protection, absolute scoufUy of
their rights of person und property, ond
that participation in public- ulm rs to which
thoy may bc entitled by education. Discuss
politics as wo liny, at last wc have no other
or surer guide than eteruof truth and justice.
