The Town Council having decided to take a census of the population of the corporate limits of the town, Dr. Alexander Moore, who has been selected for the purpose, will commence the work of enumerating to-day. It is contemplated to include in the census only the population, classified by age, sex and race. ? PARDON GRANTED. We learn that on Friday last, Governor Chamberlain pardoned James Moore, convicted of forgery at the last term of Fairfield Court and sentenced to the penitentiary for two years. The pardon was granted on the ground of youth and mental weakness ; and the petition praying the exercise of executive clemency in the case wis signed by Hon. A. S. Wallace, T. J. Bell, Esq., Senator White, J. F. Wallace, Sheriff Glenn, and had also the special recommendation of Judge Mackey, before whom the case was tried. CHARLESTON INDEPENDENT. We have received the first number of a paper bearing the above title, and edited by M. R. Delaney, who was a candidate for Lieutenant-Governor on the Independent Republican ticket in the last canvass. The Inde ve?sL>n/ ia dpsiompd fnr the riromotion of the f"-?? b r welfare of the colored people, and in his salutation the editor says: "One thing we are determined upon?which is the great object of our paper?and that is to prevent the colored race from the farther imposition of the men who have heretofore misled them in politics and theirdomestic affairs. They are not the friends, but the worst enemies of our race; and it is high time that a stop was put to it, by leading men among ourselves." REPAIRING THE STREETS. Under direction of the Town Council, a number of workmen have been employed on the streets for several weeks past, putting them iu good and permanent repair, by paving with stone and macadamizing. Almost the entire length of Main street is now paved, and other streets have also been put iu good condition. For their efforts in this direction, the town authorities are entitled to the thanks of the public. Good streets are creditable to a town and a convenience to every one?citizens, as well as those who come in with their teams on business. It now remains for owners of side-walks to repair the same, where repairs are needed, and the Town Council hope such repairs will be made at an early day, without the necessi ty of enforcing the ordinance which empowers them to compel it to be done. Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer. FROM BLACK'S STATION. Di.Ats's fh'Artos^. 0., Aug. 30,1870. Editor Enquirer:?Thinking you would be glad to hear occasionally from our section of the county, I will give you a few jottings of our doings and prospects. Our connection with the outside world by railroad has awakened the energies and enlarged the ideas, somewhat, of our slow, plodding farmers. Every day we see some new evidence of improvement over the old, exhaustive plan of farming, and a disposition to establish good schools and churches?the two indispensable accompaniments of progress. The Methodist Church, South, have a Parsonage under construction here, and propose, also, to build a church at this place ; and we are glad to say our citizens, regardless of denominations, have generously aided in the enterprise. For what has been done in this matter, we are indebted to the Christian zeal and untiring energy of Rev. L. A. Johnson, of the M. E. Church, South. He is an untiring laborer in his Master's vineyard. Weare also building a school house, 25x50 feet, two stories high. The hall above is to be used as a place of meeting for Buffalo Grange, and for the general purposes of a town hall. Arrangements are being made to secure the services of a first class teacher and build up a high grade school. The building will be neatly and tastefully built, and will be quite an ornament to the place. Funds sufficient have been contributed to furnish the school with all the conveniences for imparting instruction with facility, and for the comfort of the pupils. There is a large spring of good limestone water near the buildiug. It is situated in a beautiful country, with cheap provisions and a healthful climate, and free from thetempations to youthful dissipation and allurements from study that are unavoidably incident to schools situated in large towns and cities. Our merchants are public spirited and enterprising, and we are glad to see them generously assisting us with the "filthy lucre" in building up our schools and churches. The corn on our uplands is fine, but the nood8 have done great injury on the hne corn lands of Buffalo and Broad river. Some farmers estimate their loss from this cause at 50 per cent. The wheat crop was better thau for many years. The acreage devoted to the cotton crop and the amount of commercial fertilizers used, are greater than ever before, by at least 25 per cent. The plant is unusually large and well loaded, but within the past few days we notice that a great many squares are dropping, probably from too much rain. More attention is being giveu by our farmers to the uecessity for better culture; improved tools are coming into use, and more manure is saved and applied. I know of j some wheat lauds plowed deep, and well manured last fall, that yielded 20 bushels of j wheat per acre. With our soil, climate and facilities for ; marketing our produce, I can see no good rea- j son why any of our people should risk going j nr I il _ !!* tir I west to Getter tneir couuition. we are Deginning to appreciate these advantages, and hear of no one removing Westward, and our lands are steadily rising in value, which is a hopeful sign. Let us cease our political agitation ; do bet- i ter farming in every sense of the word ; ornament and beautify our homes, so as to make our county attractive to our children ; educate { our youth, and live up to a higher and better staudard of morals, and our grievances will, in time, disappear, and we will be as happy and ! prosperous as any people on the globe. We heartily endorse your course in abstain- i ing from political discussions in your columns, | jr- *> j and in giving your influence and ability to the development of our resources and to the mental and moral improvement of our people. The longer you labor in this cause, the better | will your course be understood by the people, ' and the stronger will be their support. Much { harm has resulted to the South by the indis-; creet, and in many instances, senseless agita- j tion of dead issues, and indiscriminate abuse j of the government and its laws, indulged in by many of our journals. This, together with the misrepresentations of unscrupulous carpet-baggers and scallawags, has created the impression abroad that we area turbulent and j restless people; that we have not accepted ' the situation brought about by the events of j | the late war, and causes the colored man to I feel insecure of his rights. This we should | 1 avoid. Let us be patient, prudent and forbearing, i onrlPYPrteverv Dower to build up our county ; | ( ~ ? I have faith in God and love one another, and j all will yet be well. Farmer. The Railroad Coming.?We are gratiI 6ed to say to our readers that the whole conj tract for grading the Narrow Gauge Railroad, from Dallas to Lincolnton, has been taken by C. & W. H. Motz, of Lincolnton. The work is to begin on the 1st day of September and be prosecuted vigorously to completion. The contract extends the time for completion to first of May next, but the Messrs. Motz expect to put it through by the first of January. The three miles from Dallas to the South fork river is much the heaviest part of the work, and will cost as much as the balance of the way. The contractors will begin at Dallas. The stock-holders have much reason to congratulate themselves that the work has fallen into the hands of such reliable and energetic and responsible parties. It insures a speedy and sure completion of this important road to our town.?Lincoln Progress.. t | J nrannal anil Qi/Oinmernax. YORKVILLE, September 1.?Cotton?Extremes 104 to 12$ cents.

Watson, Mr. JAMES W. BAR^E'lT, of this county, and Miss E. A. CRAIG, i OBITUARY. Died?Near Blairsville, on the 20th ultimo, Mr, JAMES M. PLEXIOO, aged 39 years one month and fourteen days. i . Mrs. M. IDA* JONES, daughter of D. T. and Amanda Byers, was born Novcmbor23d, 1852, and died August 12th, 1875, aged 23 years 3 months and 11 days. It is painful to chronicle the departure of one who had just reached the goal of life. Four years ago, she assumed the sacred obligations of church membership, shortly after the evidence of divine acceptance was received. Less than a year ago she stood at Hymen's altar a blooming bride, and gave her heart and hand to one who was to be her companion for life. Thus surrounded, it would seem hard to sever the ties that bound her to earth. But to her the arrival of the dread messenger produced no alarm. The gloom which his presence (treated was only felt by those she left behind. Her philosophy not only equipped her for life, but prepared her for death. At 3 o'clock on the morning of the I2th instant, weeping friends stood around her dying bed; the pall of darkness shrouded theland; the moon had gone down in the West; the stars shone dimly from their stations on high ; the lamps shed on the tables a sickly glare ; no sign of succor appeared in the East. Oh! it was more than night to all but her, who exclaimed: "Mother, Aunt n?ii? (i.o ,ioV ;u hroiilrinc!" To her the day opening from on high had come. "There shall bo no night in Heaven." "At eventide it shall be light," said the prophet. May her kindred and friends imitate her virtues and meet her in Heaven. "The Christian dies as sits the morning star, Which goes not down at noon, Nor hides behind the western hills. But melts away into the light of Heaven." L. A. J.
