The Crack Crop of Wheat.
North Pacolk.t S. C,
Friend Stores:?While you arc blowing for
Uuion County on the Wheat question, I wish to
back you, as far as truth will allow, ami then 1
want you to fight it out, however warm the
"chicken dispute" tuay grow. I liave had my
wheat threshed out, and off of* 11,058 square
yards t got 75 bushels, of G(1 lbs per bushel.?
This is lesa than 2A, aprga-r-about 2|. Ono acfro
yielded 40 bushels.^"otie dozetjbuftdles threshed
out 1 bus and two^uartS. This wheat is of the
Fultz variety ; was sown two days before Christmas,
and did not come up uutil three or four weeks
after. I do not write to boast, for I am not at
all satisfied with the results of my effort?for I
oxpect, if I continue fanning, to raise 75 bus. on
one acre?but simply write to show our Northorn
tradupers what South Caroliua is capable of
doing under such au administration as Hampton's.
The land is here for any one doubting the
statement to measure for himself, aud Mj. Elius
Mitchel, Seneca Thompson and Marcics Briant,
who threshed the wheat, can testify as to the
result. I beliorc there is yet five bushels on
the ground, as when t he wheat was in the "dough"
state much of it was blown down and did not,
consequently, thoroughly mature, and having to
cut that with a mowing blade much of it was
left an the land. ?
Any one desiring this wheat for seed can
have one bushel for one and a half of good
sound wheat free of smut.

Egyptian Government is seriously alarmed over
the discovery of a conspiracy to destroy tho
passage of the Suez Canal by blowing in the
bank with nitro glycerine at points between Ismailu
and Port said. Most stringent measures
of precaution have been adopted to foil the conspirators.
The Khedive has appointed a commission
for the eannl with General Stone l'usha

Troops will patrol the banks and every possible
effort made to prevent the earthing out of
the nl<>' i'i-* aoveniTncnt is also
alarmed, and has requested the Khedive to
watch the canal with renewed vigilcnce. It is
probable the Knglish Government will be called
upon to dispatch troops for the protection of the
canal. Thus Kogland will have a pretext for
occupying Egypt.

It is tho current gossip in Washington that

A Oood Law.?-V '.hill <o prevent (lie salo of
seed cotton after dark was passed at the last session
of the Legislature, and has become a law.
No more important act than this has been adopted
for many years past, and we earnestly hope
that it will put a stop to a practice which has
not only been a great source of auuoyaucc but
of actual loss to the planters of South Carolina.
A planter, be he white or black, has the inherent
right to sell his cotton iu the seed if lie feels so
disposed, but this practice that quite a large
number have, and we are sorry to say that the
groat minority of them are colored men. Of entering
cotton fields under ?over of night, and
filling bags and then sneaking into town or to
the nearest store and disposing of it, cannot be
too severely condemned. This state of things
has existed for several years past, and there has
bccu no remedy for it. The honest man, after
lie labors hard all day, cannotrcmain in his field
at night to see that no thief comes near to molest
it, and even if it were possible for him to
do this, while ho would be vigilantly watching
one portion cf his farm, busy linnds would be
at work in another part. The law will have a
very beneficial effect all around. It will not only
go a great ways toward puttiug a stop to the
existing evil, thai of cotton stealing, but will
compel a large number who have heretofore
maae a living m mat way 10 go to worn to matte
an honest support.
While we condemn the party who steals and
sells the cotton, we cannot rcfrnin front saying
that some of our merchants arc responsible,
largely reponsible, for the evil. They encourage
it, inasmuch as they purchase the cotton at
a time when they must of necessity know that
parties selling could not have come by it honestly.
It was left entirely with the merchants
whether or not this thing should stop, but they
choosed the rather to let it go on, and hence the
legislation that has been made.?Kdgcjield Advertiser.
?
Fasiuonaiilk smruomnq.?The recent discovery
by revenue police of the systematic smuggling
of madc-up suits ordered from English
tailors by club tncu and wealthy Fifth avenue
residents, has caused a good deal of commotion.
It seems the fashionable London tailor l'oolo
sent an agent here several mouths ago to take
orders from club men and others, and the goods
have been comiug'over surreptitiously, and of
course dodging the customhouse. Suits which,
if made by a fashionable tailor in New York,
would cost froui 5175 to $100, are obtained in
this way nearly fifty percent, less. Tho explanation
of the motive is first, that the high duty at
tho customhouse is outrageous ; and second, that
the prices charged by first-class tailors here arc
beyond all reason. Neither point can very well be
disputed, Tho custom tailors on Broadway and
Fifth avenue still charge enormously for their
goods, and everybody knows that the exorbitant
tariir is a premium, on ^luumdiug and the amount
of smugglinjftflnt Is donff^fitfElch greater than
the revenue men kuow anything about.
Hampton's I'i.uck.?Governor Hampton had
an interview, last week, with a correspondent of
the Cincinnati Gazette, who quotes him as pluckily
declaring that if lie cannot carry out his
liberal ami sensible policy lie will resign. Tlie
Governor is further reported as saying: "I am
thoroughly satisfied that the position I have taken
is the true one. I expect it to meet opposition
from the violeut party men who are figuring
for 1880. I say to them, let the issues of
toou wait tlieir time, and let us have rest from
mere political agitation, and time to build up
our material industries. I suppose some of the
Northern Democrats would have preferred to
have the troops kept in the South. It might be '
a good thing for the Democratic party success1
to have Soutli Carolina sutler, but she has been !
a victim long enough. I am here to try and rc- I
store her wasted energies, and to do so by insur- 1
inc peace and order, and equal political rights '
loTioth races. 1 will not be an instrument for I
any other purpose. If tho people of o?i- j
olina demand any other course, they must pro- j
vide some other instrument."?.Views .j- Courier.

The Charleston Democracy nominated a full
ticket for tho Legislature on Tuesday night, and
elected a County Executive Committee. The
persons elected as candidates are Messrs. 0. II.
Simontou, 0. Lamb Duist, C. G. Memmiugcr, |
lb II. Kutlcdgc. John F. Ficken, F. Melthers, j
B. O'Neill, D. W. Erwin, T. B. llackcr, 11. D. I
White, It. Barnwell Illicit. O. E. Hall, J. C.
King, .). C. McKcvvui, 8. C. Ke'iard, B. K. Kin- J
loch and Ilcnry Harper. The three last named
aro colored men. This ticket embraces all clas- !
scs of the community, and was selected with a i
view to securing a representation of tho various j
elements. Harmony and unity seem to pervade
the ranks of the Charleston Democracy, and wo
shall expect to record their victory in the coining
election. The machinations of Bowen aro
foiled entirely, and his only chaucc is to nominate
a full ticket, composed of like material to
that which played such a conspicuous part in
tho Mackcy House, which means defeat, and defeat
menus ruin to Bowen.

Anotiihh Railiu)at>.?The citizens of Union
are moving for the construction of a narrowgauge
railroad from thut town to Chester, declaring
that they are in earnest and determined
to inaugurate the project without delay. An experimental
survey of the line will be made at. an
early day, and an old citizen of Chester, who
is familiar with tlie topography ot tno country,
says it is one of tlie cheapest and most practical
railroad routes in upper South Carolina.?
The Chester and Union Railroad has been chartered,
and the movement now is to perfect an
organization. The facility for obtaining labor
under the rccont act of the Legislature to hire
out the convists ought to stimulate railroad enterprises,
and wo believe that this will bo the
immediate effect of this wholesome law.?Col.
Re>/i*ter.
Verily, affairs began to look prct'ty squally
for the present set of North Carolina national
office-holders, Maippton has resigned as clerk
of the Federal Court ut Ashcville, Douirlass and

nephew of Lusk, has fled tlie State. Hester lias
given another exemplification of the fact that
a thief is the proper person with whom to catch
a thief.?Charlotte Observer.
Fred. Douglass visited his old master in
