MERE-MENTION. The State canvass in Ohio is progressing, j the principal question with the opposing par-, ties being inflation or contraction. The Democracy, with Governor Allen as their leader, favor an inflated currency. Louisville,' Kentucky, is competing with St. Louis for the ' honor of the next Democratic National Con-: vention. Gen. Longstreet spent a day in | Charlotte, N. C., last week. There were 956 deaths in New York last week, an increase of sixty-six over those of the preceding j week. The internal revenue department is still engaged in the war upon illicit distil-1 lers of the West. A large distillery was seized at Oshkosh, Wisconsin, and one at Chicago, last week. There is considerable alarm at Memphis and in that vicinity, in regard to an apprehended overflow, and j prayers have been offered at the various i churches for its abatement. The Gov- j ernraent has purchased a small boat at New Orleans, which will be properly armed and manned and sent to the Rio Grande for duty in protecting the Texas frontier from incur- j cirms r\f \fovir?on nqttlp tblPVPS. LeOO Bear, one of the Cheyenne prisoners, confined at Fort Marion, Florida, has become insane. The population of New Orleans by the receut State census is about 205,000. A j Georgia farmer claims to have raised from ; one grain of wheat 191 stalks and 190 heads. ' The largest head had 185 grains. Clai- j borne and Canal street Railroad Company of I New Orleans recently sold to the Shakspeare i foundry $2,500 worth of counterfeit nickles : collected by them in the last two years.

The Confederate ram, Merri- j mac, is to be raised from the bottom of Hamp- | ton Roads at once. General Joseph E.

C., at a meeting held on Friday last, nominated Jas. H. White, Esq., as a candidate for the Convention. Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer. LETTER FROM CHESTER. Chester, July 2G, 1875. The dry spell which was injuring the crops, came to au end last Mouday evening. Rain came down for a while in a way that was delightful to behold. Different portions of the county were similarly favored. As a cousequence, the faces of farmers are wearing a more serene and complacent look. In addition to the incalculable advantage to the crops, the rain ended one of the most intolerably hot spells that was ever felt in this country. It is my sad duty to chronicle the death of Mrs. Brown, the sister of the young lady, Miss McNinch, whose lamentable end was briefly mentioned in my last correspondence. This unfortunate lady was endeavoring to kindle I ^ _ a fire by the assistance of keroseue, when the j explosion occurred, euveloping her in flames ( and burning her so severely as to occasion her death in the course of a few hours. She was a daughter of Mr. Johu McNinch, a good and worthy citizen of the county, and visiting her sister, Mrs. Brown, who was lr > ing in town. The latter, who was in a delicate state of health, was so greatly shocked by the distressing fate of her sister that she also died in a short time. Their funeral services were held at the same time on Tuesday afternoon, Rev. A. F. Dickson officiating. The sympathies of friends are extended to the bereaved family in this the time of their deep affliction. Mr. McNinch is in feeble health, and it is feared that he, too, will sink under o uncnoabohlv rrrpnt. finrrnw ! "lc nt'k'iw (5 that has so suddenly fallen upon him. During the war two sous of his breathed their patriotic lives away in a Richmond hospital within an interval of a few hours, and now he is called upon to give up two daughters in the same short time. True and beautiful are the words of the hymn, God moves in a mysterious way His wonders to perform. Mr. Cobb, of our town, was in Rock Hill on Monday at the time of the riot. As he was struck with a brickbat, he is entitled to the honor of having his name among the list of | theslightly wounded. Pie thinks that a negro ! man, Joe Massey, was chiefly instrumental in ! occasioning the row. This mischief-maker i had been arrested and kept in "durance vile" J for a while on the Saturday preceding by the ; municipal authorities of Rock Hill, and to I obtain satisfaction for the indignity, incited j the Charlotte negroes to the attack of the whites of Rock Hill on Monday. No injuries of a fatal character were received, notwithstanding pistols were fired, clubs used, and rocks thrown to a considerable exteut. Mr. Cobb thinks that somebody would have been ; hurt if the train had not left at the time it did, bearing away the aggressive negroes. He ; says that the Rock Hillians, having found I little virtue to consist in pistols and rocks, j had armed themselves with Winchester rifles, and were prepared to do telling work if the necessity for further action had continued. A. S. Richardson, candidate for Sheriff, is employing a good portion of his time in ma- j king political speeches. As several prominent; negroes are bitterly opposed to him and exert-. ing their influence against him, he finds some difficulty in prevailing upon the colored ele-' ment to vote for him, notwithstanding the fact, of his having received the Republican nomi-j nation. At a recent meeting at Rossville, he j and Malachi Grayson came very near having a hand to hand encounter in consequence of their political differences, and the approbious epithets that passed between them. The Conservatives will make no nomination for the | vacancy in the Legislature; consequently, the Republican candidate, Samuel Coleman, colored, will be elected. On Weduesdav a pic nic was given within a few miles of town, which was attended by a number of our young men. They were very brave to set at defiance the intense heat of the day. Moreover, the oppressiveness of. the weather did not prevent a good attendance , of the fair sex. In addition to the maidens, a goodly number of matrons honored the occasion with their presence, who found their enjoyment in arranging the table and watching the movements of the young folks. As the shadows of evening approached, all took their departure homeward in a state of delight with the day's entertainment. 1 he Stonewall Fire Kngine Company gave an ice-cream festival at the Cotton Hotel on I Thursday evening. The object of the enter-1 tainment was the raising of funds for company purposes. Independent of the refreshments, the call for assistance by the Stonewalls, who have rendered very efficient service on several trying occasions, was of itself a j sufficient reason for attracting a large crowd, j The merry throng that filled to overflowing i the rooms and halls of the spacious hotel, in j conversing, promenading, and participating j in cool beverages, passed the time delightful-! ly away. The String Band, ever ready and [ willing to lend a helping hand to every good j work, greatly enhanced the enjoyment of the | evening by rendering airs as soft and sweet as "harp of houri's stringing." The different tables of refreshments were presided over by beautiful and interesting young ladies, who | discharged the high trust committed to their j fair hands, with grace and dignity. The ' Stonewall festival was distinguished for the j brilliancy of its success, numerically, socially and financially. The case of James McLure vs. E. M. Shannon, upon which the jury, on a former occasion failed to agree, came up for a second hearing, before Trial Justice Sanders, on Friday. A statement of the principal points of the case, in a previous correspondence, removes the necessity of restating them at the ~ T ^ ^ K AnrntTor fn present time, xt amy uo ncn, uun^.v., .v say that the soundness of a mule sold by the plaintiff was the point upon which the case hinged. The testimony at the trial on Friday was substantially the same as that given before. The jury, composed entirely of whites, found in favor of the plaintiff. The case will probably be carried to the Circuit Court. A severe hail storm, which fell last week on the southern side of the county, inflicted some injury upon the crops. The damage was not so great as that occasioned by the hail in the Lowrysville section a short time ago. Mr. Archy Owens was probably the greatest sufferer by the last visitation. He represents hail stones to have fallen upon his place of the size of hen eggs. There is a small scope of country on the western side that is suffering dreadfully for rain. I have been informed that the crops in that section are already injured to a very considerable extent, and that unless the rain comes soon, they will be ruined. Fortunately, the drought is confined to a limited space. Elsewhere the crops have been visited with timely and refreshing rains, and are in a flourishing condition. A man with a flying trapeze, is in town. It has a great attraction for negro boys. One of them, Jeff McDaniel, while taking a ride on Saturday, collided with a tree, and broke his leg. It is thought he will probably die. Dr. W. H. Heath, an excellent citizen of our county, returned this morning from an attendance upon the Methodist District Conference at Rock Hill. He gives a glowing account of the agreeableness of the meeting, and the unbounded hospitality of the people of Rock Hill. The Conference was well attended?about sixty delegates being present, ' ~ ~ ttt nnnnonfiAn f KorO. auu an uie piucccuuigo m >?viv with passed off most pleasantly. Qui. Jfinaacial anb Commercial.
