I struck him. After this Stephen Lake got the
keys out of Harmon's pocket and went to the
store. Bettie Perriu got the bureau keys, and
all of us went to searching drawers, &c. We i
found a watch, (gold,) pistol, bracelets, set
buttons. These I received. Stephen Lake
having gone to the store brought thence a can
of kerosene, which Lark Holloway took and
poured it down upon the persons of Mr. and
Mrs. Harmon, and also over the floor, they
being at this time lifeless. The knife shown
me I identify as Stephen Lake's, with which
the throats of Mr. and Mrs. Harmon were cut.
Then Tilda (Lark Holloway's wife) went into
the bed-room and got an oak chunk of fire.
She then got Mrs. Harmon's gown, placing it
over a chunk of fire, and blew it into a blaze.
I then left the premises, leaving all others
still behind. Stephen and Lark told me to
go and keep going; not to stop. This was
between 10 and 11 o'clock, P. M."
THE VERDICT OF THE JURY AND SWIFT
VENGEANCE.
The jury of inquest found that the Harmons
were deliberately murdered by Stephen
Lake, Larkin Holloway, Marshall Perrin,
Austin Davis, Jeff Settles, Jesse Lake, Bettie
Perrin. and Tilda Hollowav. all negroes.
These parties had previously been arrested,
and when the inquest closed were delived into
the custody of Sheriff Richardson for commitment
to jail. He had no sooner received
them into his custody than he was approached
by a party of men, who told him that they
would relieve him of any farther trouble, and
at once bound and blindfolded him. All of
the prisoners were taken by the crowd, which
was composed of both black and white citizens,
and marched to a point about a half
mile from the scene of the murder. There
the six men who had committed the crime
were tied firmly together in a row, and five
minutes were given to them to pray, at the
expiration of which time a volley of one hundred
shots was fired, and the six wretches
fell dead to the ground. About three hundred
men took part in the last act of the
lynching. They were variously armed with
rifles, shot-guns and pistols. No masks were
worn by anybody. Previous to their execution
Austin Davis and Stephen Lake had
confessed that the party had been concocting
the murder for several weeks.
Upwards of five hundred people were present,
about fifty of these being colored. There
was no excitement, and the whole proceeding
was conducted with the utmost deliberation.
The reason assigned for shooting instead of
hanging the men was that by this means the
whole party might share in the execution,
while hanging would have made a few of the
party the more prominent as ring leaders,
which result it was desired to avoid. The
lynchers openly acknowledged their participation
in the affair afterwards, and expressed
their willingness to submit to the action of
any authorized tribunal. The feeling among
the colored people was as strong against the
murderers as among the white people, and
they even said that if the whites did nothing
the colored people would take the law into
their hands. One white man was supposed
to have been concerned in the murder and
wnnM nndnnhtpdlv have shared the fate of
? J -- ?the
others, but no proof was found against
him and he was discharged, as was also another,
an old colored man.. The prisoners
testified that the three women were present
at the murder, but were not more directly
concerned in it. The lynchers turned them
loose, upon the condition that they leave the
country forthwith. They complied at once,
and this accounts for their alleged disappearance.
It is denied that they were violently
disposed of. All the lynchers were from the
counties of Abbeville and Edgefield. They
listened quietly to remonstrances of some of
the older persons present, but said they were
fixed in their resolve. Nine tenths of those
present, and at least an equal proportion of
the citizens of the county, approved of the
-? ?I pmjbujg. ?
THE GROWING COTTON CROP.
ACREAGE AND CONDITION IN THE SEVERAL
COTTON STATES AS COMPARED WITH LAST
-- YEAR.
The Memphis Avalanche puhlishes what appears
to be a carefully made up statement in
reference to the acreage that has beeu given to
the new crop of cotton to be grown the present
year. By this report an increase of acreage
of a fraction above one-half per ceut. is
made out as compared with last year, but deducting
the land yet to be planted, retarded in
consequence of overflow, it will show a result
of three and a half per cent, less than last
year. Of course, every day's delay now makes
the chances of planting the swamp lands the
present year in cotton decidedly less. The
following is the estimate of the acreage :
States. Acreage. Acrea/je. Acreage.

Detailed reports showing condition of crop
of 1876 up to May 7 :
Arkansas.?Planting north and northwest
of Pulaski county, 2 weeks late; south of that
county, 4 to 6 weeks late. Along the lower
Arkansas and Mississippi a number of plantations
still partly under water. Labor satisfactory.
Less grain planted in this State
than last year.
Tennessee.?Planting in this State mostly
finished on uplands end of April. Somewhat
backward along the rivers. Labor satisfactory.
Weather seasonable. A slight increase
of grain planted.
*' 1 1 J
lUISBiamrn.?naming uavawaru iu iiurinwestern
Mississippi, as far as Warren county
; on an average this State will be backward
fully 5 weeks, compared to the planting of last
year. Weather up to 3d of May unusually
cold. Labor good and more plentiful than last
year. Little difference in grain planted compared
with 1875.
Alabama.?North Alabama planting 2 '
weeks late. Central Alabama about the same j
as last year. South Alabama, along the Alabama
and Tombigbee Rivers, 2 weeks late.
Weather seasonable. No chauge in grain
planting. Labor satisfactory, with the exception
of a few complaints in counties bordering
on Georgia.
Louisiana.?Planting on the upper Red i
River 2 weeks late. Northeastern part of
this State averages 3 weeks late. South and
southeast 3 to 4 weeks late. Labor satisfactory.
Grain planting about the same as last
year.
Texas.?This State, on an average, 3 to 5
weeks late in planting, and so far reports compared
with last year very unsatisfactory, owing
partly to excessive rains in some sections and
cold temperatures in others. The emigration
during the last twelve moQths to this State
has been larger than any previous year. In- j
crease of grain planted fully 5 per cent com- j
.pared with last year.
Georgia.?Planting about two weeks late
on an average. Weather seasonable; some
sections report excessive rains during April.,
Labor not equal to last year. Fertilizers ;
used in larger proportio ns than any previous 1
year.
South Carolina.?'Several sections of i
this State report a slight increase of acreage; |
some about same as last year; a number less.
Some sections 2 weeks late in planting; oth-1
ers same as last year. Quite a number of
complaints with reference to labor, and fearing
grave apprehensions during the fall on
account of political matters. Fertilizers used i
freely.
North Carolina.?Planting about same
time as last year, with exception of 3 coun- j
ties, where planting has been retarded. ,
Weather seasonable. Labor about same as
last year.
Florida and Miscellaneous.?Planting
about same time as last year. Weather fair,i
though some sections report excessive rains.
Labor same as last year; little change.
Popularity.?It is a self-evident fact that
I unless a person possesses sterling worth he
| will not have the esteem of his fellow-men.
j It is true, that for a time he may deceive,
j but eventually his faults will be exposed.
This is applicable also to articles recom;
mended to the confidence of purchasers. For
a brief period, by false commendations and
glittering exterior, they impose on the people,
but as soon as tested they are cast aside. The
test of ten years has proven the intrinsic
worth of Dr. Tutt's Hair Dye, and to-day
no preparation enjoys greater popularity.
From year to year the demand for it has increased,
and now it is in general use both in
this and foreign countries. No stronger proof
of its value could be given.

Is Your Life Worth 10 Cents ?
Sickness prevails everywhere, and everybody
complains of some disease during their life.
When sick, the object is to get well; now to say
plainly that no person in this world that is suffering
with Dyspepsia, Liver Complaint and its effects,
such as Indigestion, Costiveness, Sick Headache,
Sour Stomach, Heart Burn, Palpitation of
the Heart, Depressed Spirits, Biliousness, Ac., can
take Green's August Flower without getting relief
and cure. If you doubt this, go to your
Druggist, John C. Kuykendal, and get a Sample
Bottle for 10 cents and try it. Regular size 75
cents. Two doses will relieve you.

Botany is a division of natural science which
treats of plants, and a study of vegetable phisiology
must be the foundation of botanical Jtnowl- I
edge?a study only possible by the improvements
in the microscope and in organic chemistry. As
plants are not scattered haphazard over the earth,
botanical geography must be studied, and, with
this, plant history. Botany may be applied in the
wants of every day life, as' in agriculture, horticulture,
or medical botany. Animals often exhibit
a marvelous instinct in selecting medicinal
herbs, and an observation of their habits has often,
even in the present time, led to most valuable discoveries.
And should man, with his knowledge
and appliances, fail to discover less than the brute?
It is of medical botany we would speak, or of the
HEPATINE PLANT, discovered in Southern
Nubia, the dower of which changes its color with
every change of the atmosphere. The remarkable
changes and variations of this plant and flower
have been for years our special study, resulting
in the discovery of its possession of wonderful
medical properties, the existence and value of
which have heretofore been unknown to medical
science. After much labor and scientific investif;ation,
we have succeeded in extracting its pecuiar
medicinal principles, which is a specific and
cure for all diseases of the Liver, Stomach and
Bowels; a permanent cure for Dyspepsia, Spleen,
Indigestion, Constipation, Jaundice, and all Biljflys,
.Couipliuata. <0/oou*Mk~we--ean*?ot newd- ?living
flower of this plant to all who read of Hcpatine;
butall who send their address to Merrell
& Couden, Philadelphia, Pa., with a three-cent
stamp for return postage, we will send free a facsimile
of the flower, that will change its color just
the same as the real Hepatine Flower. The medicine,
Mkrrell's Hepatine, is for sale by JOHN
C. KUYKENDAL, Yorkvifle, S. C., and will
cure all diseases of the Liver.
