Tho Old Stono Church. ["Warnock," in Anderson Intelligencer.] In tho southeast corner of Oconoo county and a milo and a half from Clemson College, there stands tho Old Stono Church, a building unique in its structure and around which aro entwined tho memories of moro than a century. It was originally called Hopewell, but latterly that namo is forgotten and "Stono Church" is tho only namo it is now known by. The building is of rough stone collected nearby, built up square, tho roof and gables being of wood. It is about lifty foot long by thirty wide, and tho walls somo eighteen foot high. In the north west corner, and about two and a half foot from the ground, there is one stone a little smoother and larger than its fellows, wherein is carved in quaint old figures, now dim with agc, 1791. Could theso stones speak they would tell us that they were laid in place and cemented there by John Husk, a sturdy, stal wart Irishman, whoso son afterwards represented the great State of Texas in the United States Senate. They would tell us also of tho Andorsons, the Pickcns, tho Calhouns, the Heeses, the Cherrys and many other illustrious names who had worshipped within those sacred walls in thc days of long ago. They would toll us moreover, of tho grand preacher! who had, at different times for ? hundred years, proclaimed Inc "glac tidings of great joy" from its loft) pulpit. This ancient edifice, while origi nally a Presbyterian church, is n< longer used by that denomination exclusively, the organization wilie) formerly existed here having beei transferred to Pendleton. Proach ing services are had here occasion ally by different denominations Sometimes a Union Sabbath schoo is kept up. Notwithstanding tin interest which this old chu roi awakens, probably there is evei more attractions in the city of tin ilead h ard by.

At the lower side of tho grounds there are two hugo pine trees about sevon or eight feet apart, towering far above tho surrounding growth. They aro tho solo monuments to mark tho grave of Turner Bynum, who was killed in a duel in 1833 by B. F. Perry. Both were brilliant young la' 'yers of Greenville and edi tors of rival papers, Perry being editor of tho Patriot and Bynum having ol J argo of the Soulhorn Sen tinel. Their controversy became so bot during nullification times vus to bring on a duel, willoh was fought willi pistols on au island in Tugaloo river, just below Hatton's Kord. Perry was only slightly wounded, while Bynnm was shot in the spine and killed. His body was brought to Stone church and buried by torch light on a dark and stormy night. There is a tradition that tho poles upon which thc collin was borne from the wagon to tho grave were planted at thc head and foot of the grave to mark it, and that they took root and grew and are now the great trees that sing their mournful dirges when the evening zephyrs blow. lint there arc those who deny this and say the grave was dug between two small pine trees.

A New York syndicate bas bid for tho entire rice crop before it is gathered. How to Produce a Profitable Crop of Wheat. Tho Clmrlotto Oil and Fertilizer Company and tho President of the company, Mr. Fred Olivor, of Char lotte, N. C., havo again demonstrated on their farms what can bo dono toward profitable wheat raising. Tho 250 aores which they hud in wheat this your gave an average yield of 30 bushels per nore ; ono bold of 30 acres gave an average yield of 84 bushels ; another Hold of 90 acres gave an average yield of 88 bushels per aero. A Held of GO acres that was in wheat a year ago, sown by the former owner of thc land, and which last yoar yielded only eight bushels pur acre, tit in year gave, an average yield of 24 bushels to the acre. With such an illustration of what can bo done by progressive farming, why will tho majority of farmers continue to bo satisfied, or, if not satisfied, continue to curse their luck when thoir crop of wheat turns out only live oi ten bushels per acre ? There ii* no reason, and in fact it is a crime for any farmer to throw away his time and land by ?rowing such a poor crop, as the most, of them now raise when they could treble and quadruple thc yield by intelligent and progressive farm ing. They must use better mules and plows to preparo the soil, using the best disc grain drills, having fer tilizer distributor attached to plant and fertilize tho wheat, using the best seed wheat even if it does cost a few cents per bushel more money, using not less than 100 pounds of high grade fertilizer per acre instead of UK) pounds of low grade acid and i potash goods. Seed wheat that is free from broken and defective wheat, and above all almost absolu tely free from cockle seed is worth twice as much for seeding as the seed i wheat usually used. Still more im portant is the fact that seed wheat i from a crop that gave a yield of .'50 to 35 bushels per acre is superior to ? seed wheat from a crop that gave only five to ten bushels per acre, iiu farmer Will attempt to raise horses and mules lo weigh 1,400 to 1,000 pounds each and expect to succeed if be uses for breeding slock I that weighs from 000 lo 800 pounds ; ? no breeder of high grade milch cows i will expect to succeed except by i using high grade stock. Last, but not least, they must use high grade fertilizer if the farmer expects to 1 receive proper returns from bind and labor. Why be satisfied by using 100 pounds per acre of cheap, low i grade fertilizer when 400 pounds of high grade fertilizer will give an increase of If) to -?) bushels per acre ? It costs no more, or very little more, to prepare the land lor a good crop than for a poor one ; it costs no more to drill in good seed wheat, and 100 pounds of high grade fertilizer, per acre, than to drill in poor, seed wheat, and 100 pounds of poor, cheap fertilizer per acre ; it costs no more to cut an acre of good wheat with a reaping machine than it doe to run the machine over au acre of poor wheat, and the reaping machine leaves less wheat in the field unfathered if tho crop is a good one than it does if the crop is a poor one. The farmers of the South have tho best market for their wheat, corr, and hay of any section in tho United States, as they can obtain the same prices as the Western fanner plus tho freight that is charged from tho I West to the South. Why not then 1 farm on a profitable plan and not an unprofitable one ? Uso good stock and tools, good seed and fertilizer, good judgment and skill in hand ling labor and machinery, and above all work yourself as ntl oxamph to your hired help and you will lind farming profitable ? * Does it Tay to Buy Cheap .'

Of tho 52,877 enumeration dis tricts in tho United States 35,180 have been counted. Tho total num ber.of cards punched is now 50,255, 725, or about 1,-131 to an enumera tion district. If thin ratio hobin out tho total population will bo 75,GG7, 000, but the chances are that it will shrink a little. Announcement of population will soon bo made by States in alphabeti cal order and at tho same time it is expected that the minor civil divis ions within the States will bo made public, lt is tho population by States in Which political interest chiefly centers, because upon that tho ap portionment depends. Ten years ago Vermont was the troublesome State -how to select a ratio which would leave her number of Representatives undisturbed, and at thc same time not too greatly increase tho si/.o of tho House of Representatives! was tho mathematical problem. This time there is an expectation that Ne braska may be the State needing such sympathy ; at least half a dozen of ber loading towns are showing tho effects of gross padding ten years ago, and it is known that the popu lation of the State fell oft' rapidly in the early years ol' this decrease-in fact, it had begun to fall off ju*?t before 1800. On the other hand, Nebraska has been tilling up rapidly in the last few years, and just what the not result of these changes will be cannot bo foretold. Vermont, it is believed, will again show an ex ceedingly slow growth. The State has no large cities, and is not greatly interested in manufacturing, and these seem to bc thc two elements which make for growth in thc East. The manufacturing States, in a diagram of growth by decades since 1790, in the Statistical Atlas, show a ourvo of population. In every such Slate there is a period of slow growth, almost stagnation ; between thc waning of agriculture as a chief interest and the incoming of manu factures. Massachusetts went through this transition in the decades of 1830 und 1840. Her growth was very slow until manufactures gained a good foothold, and then it has been steady until this time, when the manufacturing cities are showing a rate that is almost phenomenal. It is the same with New Jersey, Connec ticut and Southern New Hampshire. New York and Illinois do not show the effects of this transition period, DU account of the large cities of Now York and Chicago respectively; their growth has made the State totals press evenly forward. Tho gradual extension of the manufactur ing area is one of the development0 of the successive censuses. Its fron tier is steadily moving southward and westward, with islands, so to speak, Uko Birmingham, Ala., still further in advance. $100 UliWAHl) ?100.
