Two weeks ago, thc prospect for bread was never generally better in this sec? tion. Two weeks more without rain would bring almost total failure to many. It has been already cut short. The Cotton prospect is scarcely an average SUMTER BIBLE SOCIETY. A meeting of this Society will bc [held on Sabbath next (lGth) at the [Baptist Church, at 4 o'clock.

We are requested to say that thc [friends of the Bible generally are in? vited to attend. ICU Ot KA TI. Thc Good Book tells us that there is a time for many things; and although Ice-Cream is not mentioned, we think this must bethe time for it-if there is auything to be argued from thc power with which Old Sol flings his rays on thc little spot of earth hereabouts. If so, the ladies of the Baptist and Methodist churches contemplate aud abundant sup? ply. The Baptist Festival will occur as usual this week, (on Wednesday,) but with music to charm thc ear. Thc Methodist, on Friday, beginning in the morning at ll o'ekek, and closing at 7 in the afternoon. A PLEASANT OCCUPATION FOR LA? DIIIS. Tho liberal percentage offered by Messrs. Butler, Chadwick & Wary to those engaged in the sale of tickets in the great Land and Immigration Scheme, should be a rare inducement to thc la. dies tc undertake the work of disposing of them; especially those geucrous, un? selfish and noble women who represent charitable institutions and desire to raise funds for their support. No gen? tleman could refuse an appeal from such a quarter r.nd for such a purpose. It may be safely assumed that not one man in ten throughout thc State, to say nothing of the softer sex, will fail to take his risk in securing a fortune lrotn the 2404 prizes to bc drawn in October next. Hence, thc ladies should bc eini nertly successful in the sale of tickets, and io earning the legitimate profits* which attach thereto. I TI PRO VF. YOUR HOLIDAYS. "Farm," on our outside to day, offers I some good advice to the youth of thc . country, now in the recess of their 'collegesand schools. The point and spirit of his words both please us, and we commend them earnestly to our young readers. Our young meo and women of the present day, must tram the lesson of self reliance ; and nothing is more tal to I such learning than habits of idleness [ or listless indifference to the active in? dustries and duties of life, even during their relaxation from regular educa? tional training. The young man who ' intends to grapple manfully with the circe instances surrounding him, and rea* his structure of character and fortune, a beautiful, solid column, will never bo found passing the hours design? ed by God for labor in empty thought? lessness-with idle head and idle hands. He will be found np and doing-propi? tiating circumstances for doing good and practicing tabita of systematic industry. INCENDIARISM AT MANNING. We learn from the Clarendon Pres? that an attempt was made recently io fire the warehouse Owned by Mr. MOSES LEVI, at Manning. The torch was ap? plied in close proximity with a con? siderable quantity of kerosene. The situation bf this warehouse is such that its burning would involve the destruc? tion of a large part of the business portion of the place. ALSTON HOTEL. It is some consolation to the weary waiters and watchers at Alston (the Southern terminus of the Spartanburg and Union R. R.,) to find there a com? fortable house, and to know that wheo dinner time corres, there will really be something to eat. Personal experience recently demonstrated to us this fact. Mr. J. P. ELKINS is entitled to the thanks of all who pass that way for the bodily comforts he affords, as the w^ary hours of "lying over" pass away. J?- At a grand celebration of the Fourth, at Newark, N.

On the *ifo and mother devolves the responsibility of .egui'ating the duties of the household.
