The cry of short crops comes from almost
every section of the corunty, warning every
one to practice less<>ns of economy and thrift.
If there are brought full) into play there is no
cause for despotioency. All who remember
the drought of 18.->i know what abundance

Our Presi(dent.
As we go to press a ray of hope strikes
through the cloud of gloom which for several
days paased, has overshadowed the White
House. The severe ordeal thromugh which t.be
President has just passel drove hope from
the heart ot every one who was in attend
ance upon his sufferings, except that of Dr.
Bliss, who atill thinks lie will survive. If lie
does get well, it will simply be miraculous.
Court.
Court commences at b'! ra-te on Monday
the 19th inst. Ills ionor.Judge Fraser will
preside. The Solicitor says all parties bound
over to appear at this term of court must ap,
pear, as he is determined to clear the criminal
docket at this sitting of the Court. At tl
last term of Court:sonic cases could not bc
hoard because either the defendant or th<
Witnesses were absent. If any one whose dQ
ty It is to attend shall fail this3 time, he wil
be promptly attached for contempt or arrested
under a bench warrant.
Thme Atlanta Exposition.
Senator Brown has resigned the presidcec
of the exposition on account oif the death ol
his son, and governor Colquitt has beci
elected to fill the vacancy. The vast floor
space of the building, covering over 300,00(
-square feet, has all been taken up and the dai.
ly demiand for space continues at the rate ot
6,000 feet. It is estimated that the exhibition

f Remondand Kelley.
fIn the trial of Redmond's eases last week,
in the United States Court his attorneys con
scntted to a verdict of guilty in ten counts- On
last Monday His Honor Judge Bryan sen ten
ced hini to ten years confinement in the Peni_
tontiary at Albany, and imposed a fine of two
thousand and six~ hundred dollars- Mr- Kel,
ley, as has been stated, was found guilty on
two counts and recommended to the mercy of
the Court. is sentence is two years and
eight months in the penitentiary and three
hutdred dollars fine.
These san~ences appear to be reasonable
and just compared to the offences with which
the parties were charged; lewt wes arc not pre
pared to say how they would appear compared
to justice, yet we can say who justice would
send to Albany with them ifjit had its way.
Storm in ChatrlestonI.
Accounts of a terrible gale on the coast,
came in from thle City by sea. Much damage
was done to property along the beach and to
the windows and roofsi of houses. The blow
on Saturday was said to be the strongest
since 1874.
Soveral lives were lost, and among the un
fortunate appears the name of Mr. T'homaas
P. Lesosno, the youlngest son of' E~%ChaLn
cellor Henry D. Lescano of Charleston. ie
went with a party of friends to the bat tery to
witness the dashing of the waves over the
east sea wall, and while leaning upon the
railing somehow lost his balance and was
swe~llowed by the angry surge.
Two more lives were lost, one being that of
A colored man who was drowned near Edisto
Island by a boat's bing captsized; the other
that of a colored wo'san who was rid ing in a
wagon over a causeway leading through
udarsh to the main land. The wagon was
blown from the track and overturned in the
marsh, the unfortunate woman being caught
under it was drowned before her body could
be recovered.
Mr. Francis Cogin's testimony as to the
superior advantages of the South for cotton
spanufhoture is attracting wide attention. The
50ston Herald says: "In the long run labor Is

Sit it grown. But, as~ the iadustry ad
9ngit will be found that Now England
luny6d bra*is are iia it, as they are in pret

A writer in the Charlotte Observer says:
" The Greenville News in a vein of pleasant
ry sDys that the pet nnniac, usually kept
chainied ih this office, has been given a fur
lough to go on a hunt for the prohibition
party In North Carolina."
"T * t maniac' will not have to go far
to find the object of itis search. It will find it
50,000 strong, composed of tho:whito inateri
al of North Carolina, and representing the
virtue, the intelligence and much of i lie prop

its mission, and conscious of ultimate victory.
It wlconics its foes to all the honors that

A LA Mi Z Cow.-Mr. A. G. Means brought
his heifer, 28 months old, to the public scales
last Saturday and ascertained her weight to
be 1320 pounds. At the age of 12 pionths she
weighed 741 pounds. She is the largest cow
in the county, utiless her mother, a Kentucky
Short Ihorn, be heavier. She is a beautiful

The people of Emerson, Manitoba, were
recently startled bywclouds of ants flying in
the air from West to East and extending for
miles around. They were apparently ordi,.
nary black ants, provided with wings. Dur
ing the night myriads of these insects cane
to the earth, and the streets and sidewalks
were literally black with them. The Red

Senator Pugh, of Alabama, commends Mr.
Arthur as a true gentleman, full of common

.Jones, of Nevada, is Arthur's greatest con
fident. and his iniluence would be exertedt
for good. Senator l'ugh conclud(es that, it

altogether conservative.

Gen. liancock returned to New York Tfues,.
day. He said to a reporter: "I return on ac
count of the very serious illness of the Presi
dent, as I do not feel inclined to travel and
enjoy myself under the circumnstquces. I
think my proper place just now is at my piost
on Governor's; Island."
Here are some words of' wisdom: "There is
no use in sitting down and mourning over.
blasted hopes; nor should one get. unduly ela
ted over success. IHe who banks in the smiles
of fortune this year may be called upon next
year to walk through a night of failure."
It is rumored;that, in case of thePresident's
death, Bllalno and McVeagh will retire fromt
the Cabinet; Conkling will accept no np point
ive place, but run for Scretary of State at the
head of the Republican ticket in New York.
This Is said to be the latest programme.
A bill submitting the question of prohibi

are not very hopeful of success, but will make
an earnest canvass andl do their best.
