The work of the farm and plantation has been much retarded, of late, by continued, and almost every-day rains The grass, in some places, as a ?csult, has serious hold Upon the crop. We have heard of cotton being plowed up, uud the land put in oom, in the hope? lessness of tho prospect bf successful cultivation of tho for iii or. The crop, gonerally, docs not promise Well now, aud should the remainder of tho season prove un favorable, tho aggregate product of thc staple in this section, will not equal tho crop of last yoar, notwith? standing thc aroa of land in cultivation is larger. The corn crop is promising, but gen? eral apprehension prevails of a drought in July, which would prove disastrous, following the presont wet season. KOHLRABI. Our esteemed and courteous friend, C. If. MOISE, of the Planters' Warehouse, left at our office, yesterday morning, a specimen of the singular variety of vege? table known as "Kohlrabi," or tur? nip cabbage, grown in his garden at this placo. The leaves indicate a cross (?) between tho turnip abd oabbage, and the "head," so called, from which the leaves spring, is about the size of an ordinary turnip. When "tabled," we can form a better opinion of its ed? ibility. CALHOUN LITERARY SOCIETY 1VOFPOMD COLLEGE. Thc Committee-Messrs. H. E. PARTRIDGE, A. Cook SMITH, and D. C.

Accepting ibo kind invitation re? ceived, we participated io thc very ioterestiog exercise* at MayesvHle, OD Friday last, atteodaut upon the laying of the Corner Stone of the Lodge Building projected bj May cz ville Lodge, No, 141. We regret that the limited space at our command does not permit oe to give such a report aa the occasion merits. Members of Biehopvillc, Claremont and Sumter Lodges were present io con? siderable numbers, and the Masooio procession, under the marsbalsbip of Dr. J. W. HUDSON, was more imposing than any we hare ever seen in this seetioo. The assemblage too, of the oitisens and fair ladies of that highly intelligent and respectable and always hospitable community, was large. The ceremonies were conducted by aoting Grand Master MONTGOMERY MOSES, with Masooio beauty, solemnity and impressiveness. Capt. JOHN S. RICHARDSON, the chosen orator of tho ocoasion, delivered one of his best speeches, the musio, lead by Mr. II. D. CORBETT, on the Melodeon, was* full of inspiration, and the luxurious and abun? dant di un cr, spread in the beautiful grove adjacent to the residence of our venera? ted friend, M. P. MAYES, Esq. as, we must say, only Salem eau do suoh things, put the whole company in fine spirits. The occasion loaves behind it pleasant recollections, and we beg to express our warm appreciation of the oourtesics received. KXOHiN?ES. WESTERN METHODIST.-We are muoh pleased to receive and add this staunch Southorn Christian paper to our exchange list. It is published at Memphis, Tenn., and, until now, was entitled the Memphis and Arkansas Christian Advocate. The change of name became necessary, among other reasons, in consequence of the increase in tho number of patronizing Conferen? ces. It is now the special organ of tho Memphis, North Mississippi, Arkansas, White River, Little Rock and Indian Mission Conferences. The Western Methodist is printed with beautiful clear type on a fine double sheet, and is con ducted with decided talent, editorially. W. C. JOHNSON, Editor. R. W.

As a news and commercial paper, it hus enterprise aud reliability, and our merchants and business men generally will find ii valu? able-, especially as, under recently es? tablished mail facilities, it would afford them as late intelligence as could be received through any other newspaper medium, and as thero are now indications of some trauo springing up between Augusta and Sumter. We wero recent? ly permitted to form the ncquuiutance of some of tho Chronicle and Sentinel staff, the remembrance of which is among our pleasant recollections.. THE PRINTER-JOHN GREA?ON, publishor, W. D. THOMPSON, Editor, 75 Gold Street, N. Y., is truly beautiful specimen of typography, or of the printing art. Every page and every line of it shines in the boauty of its print. CUBA. Congress has finally disposed of tho Cuban question, after much delay and much discussion, by tho passage of the following resolution : Resolved, That tho President is hero by authorized to remonstrate against the barbarous manner iii whioh tho war in Cuba has been conducted, and if ho shall deem it expedient to solicit tho co operation of this or other Govern. monta in such mcasuros as he may doom necessary to scours from both contend? ing parties an obsorvrooo of the laws of war recognized by all civilized nations. [From th? Carolina Spartan.] WOI'FOHD COLLAGE. SOPHOMORE EXHIBITION. Thc Exhibition iii declamation by mombers of tho Sophomore Class, in the College Chapel on Tuesday night, 17th inst., was well attonded. It must have been quite encouraging to the speakers to see so good an audicnoo, ar.d accord? ingly tho elocution of tho hour indica? ted that the young orators wcro in a suitable framo of mind for tho exercises. In regard to thc performances thcro seems to bo but ono opinion, which is suffi cien tl y flattering to tho young gen? tlemen. All present appeared to bc highly pleased, and wo think tho de? monstrations of appluufco were not empty and meaningless, but exhibitions of meri? ted praise. We will only say in con? clusion that if Junior means any moro than Sophomoro in tho public declama? tions of the month, something in thc superlative may be expootcd on tho night of tho 27th.

Tho manufacturers of tho North have askod for and obtalued the assistance of tho National Gov? ernment until they have bocomo a burdon to the people at large, and the tax paid by the United States for tho support of theso manufacturera is equal to all tho other taxes put togethor. Let onr manufacturers make goods of botter quality, and at lower prices, than otbor manufacturers, and they can defy competition without Govern* mont help. This, at least, ia the plan of Mr. P. P. Toale, of Charleston, S. C., tho largest and most successful manufacturer of doors, sashes, blinds and mouldings in tho Southern States. Tho Great Family Medicino of tho Ago.

Can it bo wondered nt, then, that so much of woman's timo and atten? tion should bo directod to tho moans of develop? ing and preserving that bonuty ! Women, know, too, that when men spoak of tho intellect of women,'thoy speak critically, tamely, coolly ; but wbon thoy como to speak of tho charms of a beautiful women, their langnago and their eyos kindlo with an enthusiasm wbioh shows thom to ho profoundly, if not, .indeed, ridiculously in earnest. It is part of tho natural sagaoity of women to porccivoall this, and theroforo employ ovcry nllowublo art to bocomo tho goddess of that adoration. Preach to tho oonlrnry, as wo may against the arts em plo) cd by womon for enhanc? ing their beauty, thoro still stands tho eternal fact, that tho world doos not prefer tho society of an ugly woman of genius tu that of a boauty of less intellectual acquirements. The world bas yot allowed no higher mission to womon than to be beautiful, nud it would seem that tho ladies of of tho prosont age aro carrying this ?don of tho world to greater ox t romes thun over, for all wo? men now to whom nature bas doniod tho (alaman io power cf beauty, supply tho deficiency by tho uso of a most delightful toilot artiolo, known as tho "Bloom of Youth," willoh bas boon lately introduced into this country by O Kimon W. LA mn, a d?licat o beautifior, which smooths, nut all indentations, furrows, scars, removing tan, freckles, and discolorations from tho skin, luav ng tho complexion olear, brilliant, and beautiful the skin soft and smooth. With the assistanoo of this now Amorican trick of a Lady's toilotlo, fe? male bonuty is destined to play a larger patt in tho admiration of mon and tho ambition of womon than all tho arts employed since bor creation. Prof. C. F. Chandlor, Chomist to tho Metropoli? tan Board of Health, has recently prepared a chemical analysis of this delightful toilot pr?par? ation, Ind reported that the "Bloom of Youth," was baronies?, oontniningnothing injurious to tho health.
