John D. White, who claims to be from Richmond county, N. C., was arrested in Rock Hill and committed to the jail in this place last Tuesday, charged with forgery committed in North Carolina. He is detained to await a requisition from the Governor of that State. TRANSFERRED TO YORK JAIL. A. J. Martin and R. T. Riggins, both of this county, who were sentenced at the last term of the U. S. Circuit Court at Charleston? the former to imprisonment in the penitentiary for one year, and the latter for three years? but who, since the sentences were pronounced have been detained in Charleston by sickness, have been transferred from the prison in that city to York county jail.

Pressley, about eight miles north-east of Yorkville, was accidentally destroyed by fire. Mr. Moore lost his entire stock of provisions, in- j eluding twelve bushels of corn, one hundred pounds of bacon and several hundred pounds of floor, together with all his household fur- ] niture. He only succeeded in rescuing from the flames a portion of the family clothing. The fire originated from a defective chimney. Mr. Moore is a poor man and the loss to him is quite severe. MURDER IN CHESTER. In Chester, on Sunday night last, William Ford killed George Cresswell, by stabbing him with a pocket knife under the collarbone. After being stabbed, Cresswell lived but a few hours. The deceased was a discharged soldier, and was engaged in business at Chester. ^ We learn that both the men were members of the Sons of Temperance, and the difficulty originated out of one or the other having been reported to the Order for a violation of the temperance pledge. Immediately after the murder Ford made his escape; but was arrested on yesterday morning, about three miles North of Yorkville, by Mr. Wm. H. Quinn, and is now in the jail a^thjsjjJace.

Notice is given in our advertising columns that the Republican county Convention will assemble at this place on Monday, the 12th of August. The objects of the convention are to select delegates to the Congressional and State Conventions, and to nominate candidates for county offices. If common rumor can be depended upon, there is no scarcity of candidates for the various positions to be filjed. In every section 'of the county patriotism lSTampant, and individuals are to be found willing to Sacrifice themselves for the public good. We have endeavored to secure a list of the would-be candidates for nomination, but find it is utterly impracticable to do so, as quite a number of persons who are willing to be victims, have only breathed their aspirations in confidential whispers.^ On the other hand a number of patriots have "hung their banners on the outer walls," and "at the earnest solicitation of many friends," are canvassing with an enererv worthv of such an ob ject The following is a partial list of persons whose claims are being publicly canvassed by themselves and others?in the majority of cases, however, by themselves only : Representatives.?Brit McKeon, Nelson Hammond, Dick Wilson, 3/tYea Johnson, John Newton, Alfred Meacham, John Martin, Matthew Williams, Madison Bratton, R.

THE NORTH CAROLINA CAMPAIGN. Raleigh, N. C., July 27, 1872. the fiery contest. The bitterest campaign that has ever oc curred in the history of North Carolina, is now drawing to a close. I have been here at the capitol a week?having come down from Washington immediately after penning my last letter to the Enquirer?and have attended all the meetings held here or near here during the time. In all my experience in politics I never saw anything that came up to this Old North State campaign in point of bitterness, rancor, and the energy and determination with which both sides canvass and fight. _ The reason of the extraordinary severity of the campaign is on account of the desperate efforts of the Washington administration to carry the State. In the history of our government, the powers at Washington never exerted themselves to carry a State election as they have this one. In intensity of determination to carry the day at all hazards, their efforts are without precedent. the election takes place next Thursday. A governor, all State officers, members of the legislature, congressmen, and all county officers are to be elected. Caldwell heads the radical ticket, r ? and Judge Merrimon the democratic. Both these men are upon the stump, speaking every day, and will be to the very last. Each is aware of what is expected of him all over the country, and each is giving his days and his nights to the work. Both sides are confident of winning; but I think the chances are in favor of the democrats. They will, I think, carry the legislature and five out of the eight congressional districts. But as the day when all shall know is so near at hand, it is not worth while to be predicting. THE CANVASS. There has been more speeches made in North Carolina in the last six weeks than in any other entire year of her history. Speakers have been here from half the States in the Union, and as I write, the cry is "still they nomft!" t.hnuph I am inclined to think they VV,M" * O - ? will soon stop coming. Senator Wilson has been here, Secretary Bout well, Secretary Delano, ex-Senator Doolittle, Senator Tipton, Commissioner Baker, Fred. Douglass, R. M. Douglas, of Washington, Colonel Wood, of Washington, Gen. Carey, of Ohio, ex-Gov. Harrimau, of New Hampshire, Gen. Bradley Johnson, of Virginia, Gov. Walker, of Virginia, W. U. Sanders, of Maryland, and twenty or thirty others whom I have uot space to mention. Wednesday I heard Secretary Delano in this city. He spoke two hours and a half to a crowd of near one thousand, all of whom were black with probably not over forty exceptions. His speech was rather mild and temperate, and made a good impression upon such as heard it. He was not bitter like , Boutwell, and did not protest against "clasping hands over the bloody chasm." Boutwell's speech, or certain portions of it, is being used by the democrats as a campaign document. The speech is open to the construction they put upon it, and it is strange that a man of Mr. Boutwell's ability and shrewdness, should have left the "gap down" in that way. The truth is, the stumping tours ot Messrs. Wilson, Boutwell and Delano have all been failures. I doubt if the three men have made three votes. Few but negroes have gone to hear them, and they were of course true to the radical cause before they went. I have good authority for saying that all these men I left the State without brilliant ideas of the success of their several missions. If they could roll back the wheel of time about two weeks, I think they would take advantage of the circumstance and remain away. | Among the many effective speakers who have come into the State in behalf of the Liberal cause, should be mentioned, Doolittle, | Carey and McClure. Doolittle is from Wisconsin, and made seven or eight speeches in this State, all "sledge-hammer speeches," as Bradley Johnson called them. Gen. Carey is from Ohio, and is now among the mountains in the western part of the State. His style ^f stump oratory takes well in North Caroling, which cannot be said of all the Northerners who have come here. Carey is rich, and I think is just stumping around for fun. McClure's speech at Goldsboro is complimented on all hands. McClure is a very handsome man, and his manner of speaking effective, especially when he has an intelligent audience. Judge Merriraon, democratic candidate for Governor, came in yesterday from hard work among the mountains, and returned last night. Both he and his competitor, Caldwell, are pretty much used up, physically, by the demands of this most extraordinary campaign. ATTirUDE OF THE ADMINISTRATION. My last letter to the F/vqtttrer was from Washington, where I stopped on my way here. I saw then that the administration was contemplating a big move on the North Carolina works, but I did not anticipate such tremendous efforts to carry the day as have since been put forth. Money and brains have been shipped here without stint; more of the former than the latter, however. The quantity was bulky but the quality not so fine. Now what will be the effect of a democratic victorv ? If it comes, as I believe it will, it is certain to fall with crushing weight upon the Grant government. They have attached so much importance to this election that they cannot escape the yery damaging effect of a radical defeat. It would have been the part of wisdom in the administration to have taken no active part in the campaign, as then they would have fared just as well with victory and not been so damaged by defeat. But the administration is not so celebrated for its wisdom as its follies. FRED DOUGLASS spoke last night at Metropolitan Hall to a very large audience, principally blacks. Negro as he is, his speech was the best and fairest I have yet heard from the lips of a Radical in this State. Instead of abusing Mr. Greeley, as so many of the skillet-head orators do, he said, much to the astonishment of his black audience, "Mr. Greeley is my friend and I am not going to abuse him. He is a good man, and I am under many obligations to him, and I shall not scold him." The negroes who are accustomed to hear Mr. Greeley abused in the most unmeasured terras, did not know what to make of this, and several of them are reported as denouncing Fred for having "gone back on them," and as being a Greeley man in disguise. Poor igno rant dupes ! They are the foot-balls ot a set of unscrupulous partisans who denounce Mr. Greeley, when it is known by those who know any thing about it, that they are not worthy to unloosen his shoe-strings. conclusion. About the time this greets the eyes of the many readers of the Enquirer, they will know here how the election has gone. Therefore, it is not worth while to speculate now. I believe the Democrats will carry the State; but go as it may, one thing is certain?the Old North State never before had such a battle fought within her borders. Nemo. + THE AGRICULTURAL REPORT. Washington, July 23?The July report of the Department of Agriculture is now ready. The reports of corn represent nine hundred and eighty-nine counties, including an area usually producing seven hundred million bushels annually, and indicating an increase of three per cent. This is equivalent to more than three-quarters of a million of acres, and the total area in this great crop of the country, which nearly equals in extent the aggregate of all other tilled crops together, is probably about thirty-five million acres. The States in which an increase in acreage is reported are as follows : New Jersey 2 per cent., Pennsylvania 2, South Carolina 2, Georgia 1, Alabama 3, Mississippi 1, Louisiana 8, Texas 8, Arkansas 4, West Virginia 2, Kentucky 2, Ohio 2, Michigan 10, Indiana 1, Illinois 2, Iowa 1, Missouri 4, Kansas 28, Nebraska 20, California 1. A diminution appears in Maine : of 4 per cent., Vermont 2, Massachusetts 4, i Rhode Island 4, Connecticut 6, New York 1, ; North Carolina 2, Tennessee 1, Wisconsin 4, J Minnesota 4. The area in the remaining j States is reported the same as last year. Of ! the reports from nine hundred and eighty-nine I counties, two hundred and sixty-three place the condition of the crop above 100, four huni dred and thirteen below 100. Illinois is rep! resented by sixty-five counties, of which twen ty-two stand above the average, and twentythree below. Of sixty-four counties in Mis: 80uri, the condition of corn is above the aver| age in sixteen, and below in twenty-five. Of | thirty-six counties in Kansas, eight only send i figures less than 100. In Iowa, where the cool and cloudy weather generally prevailed in the ! spring, followed by changeable weather, and in some sections heavy rains, only two reports ! of counties are above 100; and in Ohio, where I the drought has been severe, but three reports out of forty-five give figures higher than 100. The States making returns higher than 100 are: Vermont 101, North Carolina, 101, Alabama 115, Mississippi 110, Louisiana 119, Texas 110, Kentucky 103, California 101. The following return the condition as below the average : Maine 96, New Hampshire 98, n*Qft RKnrlo Talond 92. Connec iunsoauiiuo^bM t/vj AVIIVMV ?, ? ticut 98, New York 95, New Jersey 96, Pennsylvania 98, Delaware 92, Maryland 92, Virginia 94, South Carolina 96, Georgia 94, Flori ida 78, Arkansas 95, West Virginia 95, Ohio 90, Michigan 96, Indiana 95, Illinois 99, Wisconsin 86, Minnesota 86, Iowa 88, Missouri 97, Kansas 98,Nebraska 97, Oregon 97. Tennessee is placed at 100. An improvement in the condition of wheat is reported from New York, Maryland, Virginia, Michigan, Missouri and Kansas, and to a slight degree in some other States, while a small decline is reported in Ohio and in some of the Southern States. The averages in the winter wheat States stand as follows: Connecticut 94, New York 78, New Jersey 69, Pennsylvania 69, Delaware 75, Maryland 57; Virginia 99, North Carolina 112, South Carolina 103, Georgia 102, Alabama 116, Mississippi 108, West Virginia 95, Kentucky 112, Ohio 75, Indiana 98, Missouri 66. The States producing almost exclusively spring wheat stand as follows : Maine 108, Now Hampshire 103, Vermont 104, Wisconsin 101, Minnesota 110, Iowa 108, Nebraska 112, Oregon 95; California, which is not fully reported, 120 for early sown and 112 for late; Kansas, spring 95, winter 60 ; Illinois, spring 104, winter 92; Michigan, spring 98, winter 81. The average condition for the United States 0 is almost exactly the same as in June, or 94, which is six per cent, less than the average. The quality of the grain is uniformly superior in the Middle States. In Ohio, Michigan and Missouri, and wherever inferior condition is reported, the straw is short, but the heads are generally long and well filled and the kernel plump and heavy. The quality of Southern wheat will probably prove as fine as any ever produced in that section. In the spring qualities, the fullness of the heads in proportion to the quantity of straw causes the yield to exceed the expectation, and may go for the offset of the small decrease in reported condition. It is quite probable that the general excellence of the grain will make the crop of equal value with that of last year. There has been almost an entire exemption from rust, and comparatively little complaint of insects. The Hessian fly is reported in several places, more numerously in the Ohio Valley, and the chinch bug has caused losses in many counties of Illinois, Iowa and Missouri. ? On Everybody's Tongue.?Eulogiuras of the great National Regeneration of Health, Plantation Bitters, are on everybody's tongue. This gratuitous viva voce advertising is better than all the paid-for puffing to which the owners of bogus bitters are obliged to resort. It has a spontaneous heartiness about it which carries conviction to the mind of the auditor. But it is a well-known fact that the proprietors of the Plantation Bitters have never relied upon newspaper bolstering to establish the success of a preparation which owes its astonishing popularity mainly to the oral testimony of the thousands who have either experienced or been the eye-witness of the immense physical good it has wrought throughout the length and breadth of the land.

Bear Friends and Countrymen?Having been entrusted with the benevolent work of providing a home for the Orphans, and other equally unfortunate children of South Carolina, we thus make an earnest appeal for help in this great work. The Palmetto Orphan Home was organized last April, and is now progressing with encouraging prospects. The Board of Trustees have adopted a Constitution and By-Laws which define the nature, design and mode of operation of this Institution. Its direct management is to be by a local board consist ing of nine persons, in the city of Columbia, which Board is to bo subject to the direction of a general Board consisting of two persons, from each county in the State, which is to be called to meet annually in Columbia, at such places as the local Board may appoint. In the choice of persons to act on these Boards and of the officers of the Institution, no partiality is to be allowed on account of the religious sect to which persons belong; but all appointments are to be made on the broad principles of humanity and charity. The Constitution does not limit the ages at which the children shall be received ; but 'eaves that at the discretion of the Board, who are to decide from the nature of each case as described in the application. The Board are desirous of purchasing suitable and valuable property, now for saleatlow figures, for the location of the Home. We are, therefore, confident that our appeal to the generous people of South Carolina will at once bring many liberal donations and pledges to effect the permanent'establlshment of the ralmetto Orphan Home, which will be the best monument to the memory of our dead we could possibly rear in our State. The Board have appointed Tilman R. Gaines, General Agent to organize Aid-Committees and to raise funds for the Homo. And the Board will take pleasure in acknowledging all amounts paid to him or sent directly to us at Columbia. Donations may be made in money, provisions, clothing and anything that, can be made useful. All applications for entering children must be made to the Board, Address, . ; Dr. J. W. PARKER, Chm'n, Columbia, S. C. By order of the Board of Trustees. J. B Ezell, Secretary. ADiCKES & BLACK. WITHOUT KJtibAKU 1U tUSl.
